DEMPSEY OUT OF THE PEN.

a Startling Story Concerning the Effects
of the Poison Dempsey is Ailedged to
Have Administered.
Pittsburg, Pa, January 31.-Hugh
Dempsey was released from prison at
10 o'clock this morning The pardon
was received from Harrisburg in the
morning mail and few moments later
Dempsey left the prison in the company
of his wife, a free man. Dempsey was
pale and a trife thinner from his long
confinement, but his health was good
and he was OyerjOyed.
Arrangements are being made by the
labor leaders for a demonstration. Fol-
lowing close upon the release Of Demp-
sey comes a startling story printed in
the Commercial Gazette that nearly
fifty persons have died from the al
legged poisoning at Homestead. The
names of these, the dates Of their deaths
and attending physicians, were collect
ed for the Commonwealth at great eX-
pense and filed before the Board Of
Pardone at its October meeting, 1895.
These names and afiidayits of physi-
clans We're used by Capt. Z. Y. Breck
in his argument on behalf of the Com
monwealth, and the Pardon Board at
the time kept them from the public.

James Sherman, the MulatO, in Jail
at UniOntOwn, Was Seen in Park

Lulu Wetherel Was Assaulted.
Snecial To the Register.

Special to the Register.
Parkersburg, w. Va, January 81
The mulattO. James Sherman, under
arrest at UniOntown, Pa, on Yagrancy
charge, and who was run down by City
Detective Mehen, for the assault of
little Lulu Wetherell here recently,
has positively been identified as the
party who committed the assault.
Chief of Police d. w Heaton, who was
appointed by Governor MacCorkle to
present the requisitiOn papers Of this
State to the Governor of Pennsylvania,
who signed them, and who came home
empty handed without Sherman on ac-
count of the refusal of the UniontOwn
authorities to release him until his 80
day sentence had expired, left for I'm
lontown with Morris, the school teach
er who saw the man running from the
scene of the assault just after the deed
was committed and also the night
watchman at Wilson's saw mill who saw
an excited negro running by the mill
on the same night, just after the assault
was committed.
The party visited the Jail at Union
town, and Norris as well as the mill
watchman, is certain Sherman is the
man seen by them on the night of the
assault, the darkey making excited and
very anxious enquiries of the mill
watchman as to the time of departing
trains.
Chief of Police Heaton is certain he
is the man, as he learned that Sherman
had told prisoners in the Jail at Union
town of incidents that occurred in this
city on the night of the assault, and
HeatOn is quite certain he was here on
that night.
Sherman positively refused to come
here and the authorities will not give
him over until his time expires, which
is some time yet, and an officer will be
at Uniontown to get him when the time
arrives for his release.

UNIFORMITY.
W. P. DeArmitt Declares That 1t
Does Not Exist and That The
Wages of His Miners Must Come
Down Again.

P1ttsburg, Pa, January 31-W. P.
DeArm.tt, president of the New York
and Cleveland Gas Coal Company to-
day issued a circular to his wOrkmen
IN which ne rejects the report Of the
JOINT comm: tee of operators and miners,
who recently declared that practical
uniformity" prevails in the district,
and says his company On and after Feb
ruary 1. will pay only the prices pro-
vided for in our agreement with our
employees.
When "true uniformity" exists, the
company stands ready 20 pay full rate
per ton. but this uniformity must be
established by competent commission,
and it's continuance must be guaran-
teed.
The effect of the circular means that
DeRrmt's s men must work for 10 cents
per ton below the recognized district
price. and that the wage war n the
mining industry will be rene wed. The
circular has created a sensation.

Bushnell, Of Ohio, responded to Re
publican Ohio" and Bishop Charles E.

Mr.. Booker T. Washington. of Ala
bama spoke about Our New CITIZEN"
He said in part:
You Of this generation owe TO the
South, not less than 10 yourselves an
unfulfilled duty. Sur5ly, surely, if the
negro, with all tina IS behind nm, can
forget the past, You ought to rise above
him n this regard. When the South
is pccr, you are poor; when the South q
ignOr3nt, you are ignorant; when the
South commits crime, you commit
crime; When the Souh prospers. you
prosper. There is no power that can
separate cur destiny. Let us ascend,
in tl.s matter. above color or race or
party or sect.onal.sm, into the duty Of
man to man, American to American,
christ an to christian
Let the negro, the North and the
South do their duty with a new spirit
and a new determination during this,
the dawning of a new century and at
the end Of fifty years, a picture will be
painted. What is it? A race dragged
from its native land in chains; three
hundred years of slavery; years Of fra
tricidal war; thousands Of lives laid
down: freedom of the slaves; recon-
saruction; blunders; bitterness between
North and South. The South staggers
under the burden; the North forgets
the past and comes to the rescue: the
negro in the midst teaching North and
South patience forbearance, long suf-
fering, obedience to law, developing in
intellect. character and prosperity,
skill and habits of industry: the North
and South joining hands with the negro,
take him whom they both wronged,
help him, encourage him, stimulate
him, in self-help give him the rights OF
man and in lifting up the negro lift
themselves up in that atmosphere where
there is a new North, a new South, a
new citizen "a new republic.
