CoNNELLsvILLE. Pa, May s, 1S94.-The
strike in the coke region has generated into
secret attempts by the operators to start and
open warfare by the strikers for continu-
Gus shutdown. The strikers have scored
the most points today. Less than half
the men at work yesterday are working to-
day. The strikers posted notices on all the
company houses in the vicinity of Hill Farm
this morning. The notices were headed with
skull and crossbones, written in red ink, and
read:--

HoNoRs TO THE DEAD PRESIDENT.

The funeral ceremonies In Paris yes
terday were significant OF the love Of the
French people for their dead President.
1t was a wonderful demonstration, both
as military display. as mighty
gathering OF the people of all classes,
and as an evidence OF the earnest tear
full, heartfelt. sorrow OF stricken
nation.
1t Is difficult on any public occasion to
keep down the exubcrant spirits OF the
French people. But the seriousness OF
the crowds showed how deeply the
National loss was felt, and how truly
the people sympathize with the family
| of their dead President.
The funeral services in Washington
and in this and other cities prove that
this sympathy is left in America as well
as in Europe and extends over the
whole Republic. Everybody Will now
hope that France viii proceed with re-
newed vigor and strength on her career
of free government under her new
President, and that her arm will be
nerved more firmly than ever against
the evil which brought this sorrow upon
the nation,
