shut down again, having been in opera
ton but a few days under the compro-
mise rates. The United Galleries com.
pany, which has been operating these
mines, say they are not obiecting to
paying the 40 cents per ton, but saw
that the whole difficulty is that the

not handle their cars promptly for them.
Samuel p. Langdon, president of the
United Collieries company, is also presi-
dent of the Altoona and PhiIlipsbure

road will Toe completed as far as these

Scottdale was again: the scene of wild
excitement on Monday night, when a
pitched battle ensued between the ne.
gro coke workers and the town authori.
ties and citizens, in which one negro
was fatally shot. Strikers congregate on
the streets of ScOttdale every dav, and.
when man working at the coke plants
ventures into town, he is promptly run
out and beaten. This was the case YES.
terday afternoon, when forty negroes.
howllng for vengeance, rushed into the
town, armed with clubs and revoIvers.
The police took hand and called npon
the citizens for help, when a rush was
made for the colored men, who took to
their heels and ran. They were pursued
10y three or four hundred citizens. in the
face of voliey after volley of shot from
revolvers, and when two hundred wards
out of town one fugitive fell, shot in the
head, while the others made their es.
cape.
1t Is said the negroes are arming them
selves with Winchesters and will return
to rescue their comrades arrested by the
police, In which case another battle is

The employees of the Pullman Car
Company, at Pullman, Ill, say of their
wages before the strike: In September,
1898, for the passenger car department
the day rate was cut down from thirty
cents an hour to twenty-five cents.
This is for skilled labor. In November
following the cut was from twenty five
to twenty cents an hour. In December
a still further cut, from twenty to nine
teen cents, was made, and in May, 1894
the wages in this department were cut
from nineteen cents an hour to seven
teen cents an hour. The best work done
In the Pullman shops is now at the pres
ent rate of 81 80 to $500 day, while
in shops of Chicago firms for the same
kind of work, the rate is S2.75. a cut
was made in the bolt shop of 40 per
cent. and in some particular instances as
high as 90 per cent.

The alleged object of the boycott, says
the Chicago Herald, is to restore work
and wages at Pullman.
To accomplish this object its profeSsed
promoters went in a horde to the town
Friday night with the intention of put
ting the shops and plant to the torch
This would assuredly restore work and
wages there!
But that undertaking and its logic are
exactly of the nature of the entire busi-
ness preeipitated by the railway union.
To burn Pullman in order to get back
its striking operatives to work at i'm
proved wages is just as reasonable as to
suspend the business of Chicago, to i'm
peril the lives of peaceable people, and
to destroy property for which the
country must pay, on the pretext of
bringing Pullman to time.
The American Railway Unions logic
is as idiOtic as its consequences have
been costly and malignant

THE great strike that mas caused a
suspension of business, bloodshed, and
no end of trouble in Chicago has about
run its course. On Sunday last Pres-
dent Cleyeland issued a proclamation
that was a surprise to the mob and i'm
pressed them with the danger that con
fronted them in interfering with the
mail and inter state commerce. On
Monday he issued another, more com
prehensive and calling upon all good
citizens at the scene of the riots to re-
ii re to their to their homes before p
NJ. of the 10th, as the government
would employ all the force necessary to
subdue the mob and it would be impOs-
sible to discriminate between the guilty
participants and those who were min
gled with them from curiosity and with
out criminal intent
In the end law must triumph and pre-
vail. The interference with property
must be stopped. The interference
with men who want to work must
be stopped. The anarchistic element,
dumped on our shores from the slums
of the old world must be taught that
this is a free country, where every force
of the government will be used, if nee
essary to protect property from the in
cendiary and in giving protection to
men who labor in peacefully striking
and quitting work when they wish to
and equal protection to the man who
wishes to work at what wages he sees fit
to take, without interference from a
mob.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND has signed the
bill making Labor day national hoIi-
day This is the first time in the histo-
~ of the country that national hoi-
day has been created by congressional
enactment; and while concurrent legis-
lation by the several states of the Union
may still he required in orderto give the
federal law full force and effect, there
can be no doubt that a movement to
this end would be favored by a unani-
nous sentiment. The day is almost
universally observed throughout the
country, and has been made legal
holiday in twenty-six states.

In the Police Court yesterday morning,
Motorman G.. w. Erich was charged
with running his car No. 5. at higher
rate of speed than Is allowed by the
ordinance The warrant was sworn out
nv Sergeant Matthews who testified that
he was standing on Main street between
Thirteenth and Fourteenth Saturday eve
ming. when his attention was attracted
by the high rate OF speed at which the
car was running When II reached
Eighteenth and Main II struck some
object. He repaired 10 the scene OF the
collision, and found that the car had run
into a buggy occupied by Messrs. Gidweli
Jordan and William Eacho. The sergeant
said the car was going about twei'e miles
an hour. IL was brought out in evidence
that the horse and buggy and occupants
were pushed In front OF the car about
sixty feet
The testimony as to the rate of speed
was conflicting, some declaring that the
car was running at five or six miles an
hour. and others said IL was going about
eleven or twelve one witness said that
he was once on a railroad-train that ran
six miles in four minutes, and he be-
Ueyed the street-car was going as fast
as that. The case was dismissed.

tered. The Justice fined both men for
being drunk, and sent Began TO the grand
Jury for resisting the police. Began was
also called upon to answer the charge OF
stealing s. from Mann. This the Justice

placed the prisoner in the category OF
suspicious characters, and required SCI
curity Of him in the sum of 800. His
mother went on his bond. and he was
released.
