CoxNELIsvLLE, Pa, April 8.-Tho
leaders Of tho slays and Huns in this
section uro claiming that the strike waa
tho result OF conspiracy of the Irish
and German elements Of the region to
get tho Huns expelled from the coke
country, and thoy are diligently spread
ing the news to all their people in the
region. The means by which this is to
be done is tho present strike. Tho
Slavs aud Huns were brought to this
country undor contract twelve years ago
to break strike and since that time
the other nationalitics allege the wages
OF the miners and cokers havO speedily
declined.
The only means the other nationali.
ties believe will restore the former
prosperous times Is by oxpelling, tho
Huns and Slavs. One very marked
feature Of the strike is that all the lead
era OF tho strike and the oflicers Of tho
organization are Irish, whilo the Irish
employees OF the region, numbering
about l,500, refuse to take any part In

aloof. Tho Huns now allege that they
have been led into this strike andtin
cited to riot and bloodshed in order to
work up prejudice against them and
cause tho people to rise up and either
annihilate them or expel them from
the region. tis hard to explain the
sudden collapse Of the strike in any
other way than that the Huns have got
the impression that they arc being i'm.
posed upon and have given up the con.
test. 1tis remarkable that movement
Of such magnitude as the strike had as
sumed up to yesterday morning should
suddenly collapse.

A Big Strike Expected in n Few Weeks

PlrrsBuRGu, April 6.-There will bo
moro trouble in mining circles before
many weeks roll around, judging from
present indications. A coal operator
well known in this part Of tho state and
who has kept close watch on affairs,
said to-day:
"Within thirty days look for another
strike III the Pittsburgh district similar
to that now carried on in the coke re.
gions. Tho miners are preparing for i.
and the operators arc anticipating
trouble.
1.-THE trouble brewing among the
miners OF this district is a matter OF
wages and no amount OF argument or
reason will convince the men that
higher wages are out OF tho question ut
present. The operators will not agree
on any fixed amount to bo paid and so
long rs they fail to do SO nothing can be
accomplished by striking"

Republicans Fighting Its Passage : aIr.
Polrcr Makes Speech.
WASHINGTON, D. c., April 6.-Tho
policy OF tho minority OF the aenate was
made manifest to-day when, before tho
conclusion OF tho reading OF yesterdays
journal, Mr.. Chandler tRep. mado the
point OF no quorum, and tho roll was
called, showing that four senators less
than quorum were present. Aftor a
delay OF iiiteon minutes, TOUR senators
dropped in to complete tho quorum,
and tho reading OF the journal was con-
cluded and the routine business waa
proceeded with.
An interesting test OF strength waa
developed by Senator Hills motion that
when the senate adjourned to-day it
should be until Monday. The Republi.
cans Jumped at the idea and seconded
the motion, and even Senator Harris's
request that tho motion bo Withdrawn
had no effect, go he demanded tho yeas
and nays, in which demand he was Sec
onded by Senator Vest. Asthe roll call
progressed it became evident that the
vote would be close, and when it was
announced, % to 20, sigh Of rclief ea-
capped from the Democrats.
The vote was with few EXCEPTIONS
party vote, the Republicans voted for
tho motion and Senators Hill and Muir
ply, New York, and lrby, South Caro-
lima, voted with them and Senator
Brice, Of Ohio, was paired in favor OF
the motion.
There was very slender attendance
OF senators on the floor when Mr.. Pof-
for rose to spcak on the tariff question,
and this number dwindled by degrees
until by half-pas. two there was only
corporaPs guard present
Mr.. Quay mado the point OF no QUO
rum.
Before the roll was finished enough
senators came in to mako quorum
and the Senator from Kansas resumed
his speech.
Senator PelTer had proceeded for two
hours when Senator Gallinger suggested
that he be allowed to suspend his re-
marks and conclude al the next meet
ing OF the senate. Senator Harris stated
that tho tariff bill had never been read
in full, and that the senate had refused
to dispense with its formal reading,
asked that it be then read, hoping
thus to fill the interim until Mr.. PETER
should be ready to proceed.
The Republicans thereupon began
dilatory tactics, Mr.. Aldrich moving
that the senate 60 into executive session
and Mr.. Harris demanded tho yeas aud
nays, which showed the absence OF q
quorum.
Mr.. Aldrich's motion being voted
down there was a roll call which dis
closed the presence OF a quorum.
at 4:35 D. M, on motion OF Mr.. Har-
ris, tho senate adjourned until 10 o'clock
tomorrow.

MINERS ORGANIZING

In the Pan.Handio aud Is. & o. Districts.
What 0Ir. Cairns Hopes.
PITTsBURGn, April G.-Tho organiza-
tion OF the coal miners is being actively
pushed by President Cairns and Organ.
izer Miller. They have succeeded in
very thoroughly organizing the TOMS
Run miners, the Pan.uandle miners,
and the diggers along tho B. & 0.
railroad. Their success among the
minesa on the B. & o. has been
remarkable. since the miners OF that dis
trict have been disorganized for several
years. They always worked for less
rates than were paid at competing dis
tricts and have been responsible for tho
failure OF several attempts to sustain
wages in the Pittsburgh district.
MIR. Cairns now thinks that the active
cooperation Of the Baltimore & Ohio
miners will result in n fair price being
established and maintained throughout
the district.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 6.-The
first installment for the cache Of pro-
visions to be established here for the sus-
tenancc of the weary wIghts OF Coxoy's
walkers during the days they will be in
Washington after their long tramp is

THE STATE Of TRADE.


Tho Great Decrease in tho Number of
business Failures.
New YoRK, April 6.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'s rcview tomorrow will say: Tho
improvement in business has continued
since the Presidents veto, which has
been sustained in tho house, but the
best news OF the week is the great de-
crease in number and importance OF
failures. The commercial liabilities
were s3l ,32O,6S7 in January, 1880, ,419
in February and Sl4, 7S0,S93 in March.
Though the number OF commercial
failures, 1870 in the United States, was
never equalled in any quarter until the
third OF last year. the average OF liabil-
tiles is only Sl4,S90. which is lower than
has appeared in the records OF thirty
eight years at any tims closely preced-
ing any serious revorsea. The degree oil
commercial soundness and health
thereby indicated gives ground for hope
that the liquidations consequent upon
tho disaster OF 1898 have been in a large
measure accomplished.
The failures for tho past week have
boon 249 in the United States, against
195 last year.
