The Miners are Desperate.

Dubois, Jan. 1t was learned here
to-day that the miners held a secret
meeting at Reynoldsville Saturday after
noon. What was done at the meeting
cannot be learned, further than that a
call was issued for a general meeting of
miners and citizens to be held in this
city to day, when the strikers will
publicly define their grievances and
ask for aid and sympathy from the pub
lie. Fifteen hundred men are out, the
apparent cause of the strike being the
discharge of 400 men from the Bell.
Lewis aud Yates mines, last week The
miners of this region only resumed work
in June after a protracted and fruitIess
struggle ofseveral months. The miners.
say they believe the company : trying
to disrupt their union, and that they will
fight until starvation again compels
them to submit.

IL response to the request OF the Iron
Trade RerieIc for a word as to the indus
trial and financial outlook for the United
States, Andrew Carnegie sends the fol-
lowing: 1t seems to me that 1895 IS go~
ing to be better year for the iron and
steel business than its predecessors.
How could it be worse it is difficult to
conjecture But the sword of DamocleS
hangs over every phase of business in
the United States-that sword of silver.
Until the country plants itself firmly and
forever upon the platform of money of
the highest standard of value NJ forecast
is worth much. We never can have
permanent and genuine prosperity with
out first setting the standard of value.
At present capital not only at home, hut
throughout the world. is alarmed No
prudent investor abroad will place his
capital here, and numbers are quietly
Withdrawing it. This was to have been
expected, and is only natural. When
one act of congress or the failure to pass
an act may reduce the value of every
dollar invested, by one-half, it is in
vain we seek prosperity. My friend Ed
ward Atkinson just called and l have
read this to him. He cOncurs fully and
says "All the material conditions OF
this country are conductive to period
of great prosperity, never greater; moth
ing stands in the way but the threat of
the degradation of the standard OF
value"

Defaulter and Suicide.

Charleston, W. Va, Jan. flames
y. Williamson, ex-sheriff of Barbour
county, committed suicide at his home
near Philhppi yesterday. He was one
of the mCst prominent Democrats in
the State and was elected sheriff in 1892.
His bondsmen withdrew at the end of
three months and he was unable to find
new security. Investigation showed
that he was short in his accounts and
the State brought suit against him for
$4,000. His property was to have
been sold to day, but owing to the death
the sale has been postponed for a week.

THE London ''Statist," high financial
authority, points out that none of the
gold that has been lately shipped from
New York is being retained in London,
but goes to the continent. And in ex-
planation the "Statist'' says that the
Bank of England is offering for Ameri-
can gold less than it paid year ago, and
the further fact, which is decisive, that
rates are higher in Paris than in London
The rates in Londou have been less than
= per cent for several months, while the
rates in Paris have been nearly / per
cent. As the rate is twice as high, mon
ey can be much more proftably employ
ed on the Paris bourse than on the Lon
don stock exchange.

STATEMENTS are frequently made con-
cerning the incomes or rather the
allowances granted to European sover-
eigns, in which that of the Emperor of
Russia is placed highest of all The
fact is he has no allotted or fixed income
All the rest have, from the smallest to
the greatest. The Emperor of Russia is
regarded as the owner as well as the
ruler Of that country. All its wealth is
10y mOnarchical fiction supposed to be
his. Every dollar in the imperial treas
ury is therefore at his command. In
the absence of fixed civil list, therefore,
he can draw the money he requires, no

that state are now trying to steal the of

Dubb, Democrat, who was elected. AT,
ter hearing the case the state supreme
judges threw it out of court. 1t is now
proposed to have the Legislature, which,
Is Republican, deal with the matter and
cOnsummate the theft. The Republican
candidate, whom voters of his own party
helped the Democrats to defeat at the
