CLEARrIELD, Pa, April 4.-The first
consequences of the upheaval in the Con
ncllsville coke region are developing here
with startling force and repidity. The
operators in the Clearfold region, while
differing much AS to causes, are agreed as
To the almost inevitable effect, which will

pioyers and employed. Nothing short of
miracles In the way of conciliatlon can

Die that In the event of actual collisions
between the opposing forces in the coke
region the excitement will involve this
hcld in the struggle. Houtzdale miners
went out last Saturday as reported ut the
time; Phillipsburg and Osceola went out
on Il parley yesterday, and today the
Phillipsburg works are idle permanently
for all present purposes. The cause of the
revolt of the miners here is substantially
the same as in the coke region. The pros

The American black bear goes to pas
ture, kills the sheep, skins 1t and takes it
away. The best backwoods authorities
declare that bear can take the pelt off a
sheep as neatly as a butcher can, and as it
is not wool he is out after, but simply
mutton, he does not see any point in bur.
dening himself with heavy fleece, and SO
leaves 1t for the man whose proprietary
interest In the sheep he is transferring to
himself-that is, he leaves the pelt for the
man If the man Is not so inconsiderate as
TO interrupt the bear before he has finish
ed stripping 1t from the sheep. If the man
intrudes, he will lose tho pelt as well as the
mutton, for the bear doesn't want to hurt
the man, neither does he intend to sur
render the dinner he came to get: so he
carries off the sheep, pelt and all, and
skins it when he gets home.-New York
Herald.

for John j. O@fsnl.
WASHINGTON, April 4.-The deadlock
which has prevailed in the house for a
week past over the JoyO'Neill contested
election case was broken yesterday.
Charles r. Joy was unseated and John j.
O'Neill seated as representative from the
Eleventh Missouri district On the final
vote twenty-four Democrats and four Pop
ulists voted against Mr. O'Neill. The En-
glish- Hilborn case, from the Fifth CALI
fornia, was called up Immediately after
ward and debated for two hours. The vote
on the resolution declaring Hilborn en-.
titled to his seat was defeated, but on the
succeeding vote on the resolution declar.
ing Mr.. English elected the Democratic
quorum broke down and the house ad.
1ourned, Although eleven Democrats
voted for Hilborn there is no doubt that
he will share the fate of his late colleague,
Mr.. JOY.
The second day of the tariff debate in
the senate opened with a much smaller
attendance in the galleries and on the
floor than was present on Monday. But
before going to the consideration of this
question Mr.. Morgan called up the Behr-
ing sea bill reported by him yesterday, and
1t was passed without amendment. The
feature of the days proceedings was the
speech of Senator Allison against the tar
i'll bill. He arralgned the action of the com
mittee on finance in giving almost auto
cratic powers to II subcommittee of three,
and censured the majority for its unseemly
haste in pressing the measure. He at
tackled the substitution Of the ad valorem
method for the specific, and bitterly de-
nounced the revolutionary character of
the proposed legislation. The day closed
