VERY LIKELY TO WIN.

Coal Strike Situation Is Favorable to the
Miners.
PlTTsBURG, July 9.-Forty- eight hours
after the inauguration of the great coal
strike a comparison Of statements from
both sides engaged in the contest show
favorable results for the diggers. Dis
counting the miners officials announce.
ments by the operators opinions there
seems nc question that the workmen
have scored a decided advantage in this
district, and it is believed that as the
Pittsburg district goes, SO goes the coun-
try. Conservative estimates place the
number of miners now striking in this
district at from $1,000 to 10000 men,
an increase of about 5000 for the day.
This leaves but from 5000 to 5000 men
still working.
The Key to the Situation.
The key to the entire situation, from
present appearances, lies in the success
or defeat Of the strikers in securing the
cooperation Of the men now working
for the New York and Cleveland Gas
Coal company. Without these men the
strike can hardly succeed, because they
will be able in a measure to supply the
demand long enough to tide over the
present embarrassment. Patrick Dolan,
president of the Pittsburg district min
ers, is confident that before the present
week closes he will have succeeded in
getting all Of these men to join the ranks
Of the strikers, and when this result is
effected the battle will be practically
won.
Operators Are Confident.
The operators are just as confident Of
success as the miners are and have
i. 5ued a statement claiming a large
accession of men in different parts of
the district and a heavier shipping list
than usual. Notwithstanding the adj
vantages claimed for the operators, a
concensus of opinion appears to be in
favor Of the miners, inasmuch as the
operators can only hope for temporary
relief with their present facilities. and
the miners officials seem to be in a fair
way to effectually cripple even these by
constantly adding to their number from
the ranks Of those remaining at work.

rhs Case of j. watts Kearny.

There is something shocking about the
hardness with which the case of young
James Watts Kearny has been handled
by the New Jersey courts. The laws de-
lay is bad enough when only property
interests are concerned, but here is a case
in which the liberty of a man, who is not
even accused of wrong doing, is involved.
Young Kearny has now been incarcer-
ated in q common Jail for two months,
simply waiting for the courts to come to
some conclusion as to his fate. The pro-
eeeding, under which he is held, though
it may possibly be in accordance with the
letter Of the law, is in its
character, considering all the circum-
stances Of the case 1t is little short of
horrifying to think hat an innocent man
can, In this year of the Nineteenth Cen
fury and in this country of freedom, be
subjected to such oppression and en-
counter such hopeless stolidity Of oppo-
sition to the assertion of his rights.
a relative 81 young Mr.. Kearny. who
has some experience of European sys-
TENS, proclaims that 10 such misdirection
Of law could occur in any country Of the
old world. This may be an exaggeration

appearance. On the table can be found
any fancy article that can be bought in

varieties that can be found on it. The
ladies in charge are Mrs. George Morrow,
and Mrs. Amos, who are assisted by a
number of ladies OF the Aid Society.
The next booth, which is very attrac-
tive, is that of the candy booth, and the
pretty girls in charge of it are not a bit
slow in getting rid of the sweets they
have for sale. Business was very brick
at this booth last evening. The young
ladies at this booth were Misses May Ran
tive, is the candy booth, and the
Annie Stewart.
The rest OF the booths and those in
charge OF them are:-

of New Jersey who has bwelittlea his office
by throwing it up at the first chance of

He sought the office of his own volition

improve all methods which had previously
prevailed. He aescanted on the misuse
of the office by making it a working
ground for political and partisan purpo-
ses, and now, after being elected, because
of his character anr reputation. he turns
the office of governor over to the Repub-

FRIDAY. DECEMBER 10, 1897.
This paper as Democratic IN principles
cnd is independent IN ats raeacs oar aH local
questions.
Hy.teric. over ,he Abattoirs.

We observe the the journal is print
ing a great deal of yellow matter about
the W ahattoirs which are to be located
in Jersey City. 1t is altogether OVERRIDING
the matter.
There are two sides to the question
On the one hand, it is possible for
abattoirs TO be so run as to be public
nuisances, driving away population and
hand. these two abattoirs would employ
at least a couple of thousand men, and
thus would increase the population by
from five to ten thousand persons; and
it is perfectly possible to equip them and
operate them in such a manner that they
would be entirely inoffensive.
The question is, then. as to what sort of
abattoirs it is proposed to erect.
In the first place, an attempt was made
to steal a march on the public. Prepara-
tions were made, almost surreptitiously,
to build before anyone, even the city,
authorities, knew what was contem-
plated. This was plainly wrong, and THE
News gave warning of what was in con-
temptation. It is right that the plans
should be fully investigated. and the most
absolute guarantees demanded that the
places be run in the most sanitary style.
The Journals ignorant and hysterical
rawlings, since its post mortem discovery
in the columns of 'The News of the
abattoirs' arrival. are calculated only to
do harm. They belong to the same school
of reckless journalism hat has practically
closed the Sugar House, robbing the city
of a great monthly revenue and i'm
poverishing a large section of the down
town population.
Abattoirs are conducted in every large
city without offence or to the
public. Chicago and Cincinnati are full
of them. 1t is only necessary to go to
operated on modern principles, with such
success that across the street from the
buildings, it is impossible to detect by
smell or hearing any sign of what is going
on within.
As the subject now presents itself to
the city, there is a chance to get a big
boom in population. wealth and industry,
with 10 sacrifice of other municipal adj
vantages. if the matter is taken up in the
right way. But, of course, if the yellow
sheet stirs up the eranks and obstruction
lists of the community, and if the yellow
sheets City Hall reporter ~hypnotizes the
Mayor, as he did in the Sugar House
case. the opportunity will be lost.
