WEST VIRGINIA COAL.
Report OF the secretAry-TreaHurer Of the

Report OF the seeretAry-TreaAuTer Of the
Mine workers Reveals Its Excellence.
COLUMBUS, O., April 14.-1n the re-
port to-day OF the secretary-treasurer,
Patrick McBryde, to the United Mine
Workers of America, he says the coal
trade was better prior to 1880, when this
association was formed, than It is now.
The value of coal on board the cars at
the mines for 1890 was $40 l20.S5l and
tfor4Sslrth value was 81. .7bS, $50 less -tnEn
in 1890, although the product was
greater by 7,jOO,3sO tons,' This condi-
tIon, so detrimental to both miner and
operator, was caused, he said, by the
cursed system Of the survival OF the fit-
test. Prior to 1890 central Pennsylva-
MIA was represented at the National
Mine Workers. Now they are not here:
The two VIrginias and their cheap coal
had much to do with effecting the
changed conditions. Formerly all their
coal went TO the Atlantic seaboard. To-
day there Is more West Virginia coal in
Chicago than Ohio coal, though the
former has to pass through Ohio en-
route to Chicago.
The financial condition Of the Asso-
citation shows a debt of about $4,000 with
about 1,10O on hand. Mr. McBryde said
he expected to see the debt OF about
$1,000 wiped out before the convention
adjourned.

Tho Indlnn Revolt In aLe1ieo.

CITY OF MEXICO, April 1.-THE
latest news from JuQuillan. state OF
oaxaca, shows that the Indians who
fell upon the town like a whirlwind
were the Same horde OF brutal savages
who sacked Zimatlan and had left
there apprehensivc OF the approach Of
troops. Their action in Juquillan is
dinboIIcal, as they cruelty murdered the
chief officers and cut on the telegraph
operators head after first subjecting
him to excruclating torture. The
shops were sacked and the people out
ragged, and they ran to the hills to seek
safety. After the savage deeds, the
Indians assembled In the plaza, where
they had drunken orgier and left
town as suddenly as they had entered.
They fled In the direction Of Guerrero.
in which state are a large number Of
federal troops awaiting them. 1t is
now seen that the revolt Is confined to
q few ignorant Indians who have never
been civilized.
