Some New Light on the Shooting.
DR.. Theodorovitch, secretary Of the
Austrian consulate at Philadelphia, par
ticipated in a meeting to consider the
method of prosecuting the deputies. He
obtained affidavits from number of the
miners who were in the Friday after
noon affair which threw new light on
the shooting. They declare that on the
morning Of that day messenger ar
rived at Harwood and asked the for
eigners to come to Lattimer, as the en-
ployes of Colliery No. at that place
were about to strike. At Hazel colliery
Sheriff Martin met them and warned
them not to go through Hazleton but to
y around the other way. They did so,
but arrived at the fatal bend in the road
near Lattimer and again found them
selves
Confronted by the Sheriff,
this time backed by an army of depu-
ties. AS soon as they reached the spot,
it is declared, Sheriff Martin stepped
out and roughly grabbed the foremost
man by the coat collar. With his other
hand he thrust revolver into his face
and used abusive language. The miner
knocked the revolver arm away and
tried to wrench himself from the off,
cial's grasp. Almost instantly, the affi.
davit says, the order was given to fire.
The deputies were lined up in hollow
square, the fourth side Of which was
formed by the body OF strikers. This
would possibly account for the fact that
so many were shot ia the back and side.

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 14.-New Or
leans has caught its second wind, and
the breeze of excitement has subsided.
At first there was disposition to leave
town, but when people summed up
matters and found that there were only
seven imported cases here and that they
had been warned as to six of them,
they decided to wait until the condi-
ton should become more aggravated
before making break for other parts.
There was, therefore, no heavy outgoing
travel and very little incoming. A few
passengers who arrived from the East
missed connection with the Southern
Pacific train and had to lay over here.
They have had 10 provide themselves
with health certificates and are proba-
bly, destined to meet with considerable
trouble if they attempt to get off in
Texas, which has declared rigid quar-
antine against New Orleans. The ma
tives here, contrary to expectations
have not become frightened over the
existence of yellow fever, and whatever
depression exists is due to the fact that
business, which was 80 per cent above
the corresponding mouth Of last year,
has received set back as result of the
general institution of quarantine meas
ures against this city. Nevertheless
there were the usual Sunday crowds at
parks where concerts were given, and
the theaters were filed to standing
room only. Those who expected to
wake up and learn Of yellow fever were
disappointed.
Up to 10 o'clock, the attaches of the
board Of health announce, there has
been no change i'll the situation. There
have been only seven cases as reported
in the official bulletin. None have yet
proved fatal, and the bulletins from af-
fected quarters are of favorable ma.

the city, it is quite possible to confine
them and make their vicinity proof
against infection as has been done in

BANK OF ENGLAND DENIAL.

Statement Regarding the Silver Reserve
Was Hasty.
LONDON, Sept. l4.-Mr. Henry Riv-
ersdale Grenfeldt, director Of the Bank
of England, has letter in The Times
in the course Of which he says: "As a
bimetallist, and as one of the senior
members of the bank court, I think I
have a right to ask upon what ground
the writer of the article entitled "A Re-
monstrance' in your Saturday issue
makes his assertion that the bank has
decided to hold fifth OF its reserve i'll
silver. The bank, it it had done so,
would have been strictly in accordance
with the bank act of 1874, and equally
in accordance with the action taken in
1881 by the government, then presided
over by a monometallist, MIR. Gladstone.
There is no ground for saying that any
one connected with the bank has off,
cially gone beyond that position. In.
deed, doubt if an opinion has been re-
corded or any determination come to at
all. Your correspondent whole letter
seems founded on supposition of what
may or may not have arisen in the ne
cessary preliminary discussions with
regard to the watering OF the bank 8

COLUMBUS, o., Sept. 1.-THE great
coal strike has at last been settled. In

Of the miners agreed to accept the 65-
cent rate for the Pittsburg district, but
they voted that none of the men should
return to work until the expiration of
10 days. this being done in order to give
the strikers in other districts time to
arrange proportlonate scales. The res

with reason and spiritual sense, not a

with the proper time, will not allow her
pupils to run down at all, but will give
the key little turn every day, so they
will constantly go forward and upward.
The teacher should not be crowded.
She must not be hurried. A man may
build barn in hurry, but he cannot

therefore, for a more consistent and
