sioner, and he has appealed to Gov.
Clough and Attorney General ChiIds for
assistance in his efforts to reopen the
case against the astute commissioner
All parties interested in the fight are
Republicans of influence, which makes
the muss all the more interesting AS
county officials, Messrs. McCarron and
Samuel A. Anderson have mutual in
terests, political and otherwise, to pro-
tect, and it was because of these affili-
ations that the commissioner succeeded
in inducing the county attorney to act
in his behalf. On the other hand State
Commissioner Anderson holds that in
the discharge of his duties he knows
no politics, that Mr.. McCarron had VIC
lated state law, and that he was en-
titled to pay the penalty for the offense.
He believes that both the governor and
attorney general will stand by him in
the controversy, and if they do he
promises that Mr.. McCarron will be
compelled to stand trial on the old
charge.
Under the state law every dairyman
is required to pay a license of 81
year to the commonwealth for the
privilege of selling milk. Te enforce
and food, the state expends about $18,-
900 per annum and maintains a we'll
equipped commission. This license is
due on May 1 of each year, but Mr..
McCarron, who had always paid
promptly heretofore, evidently decided
that at the expiration of his license
for last year he would save the dollar
attached thereto. He failed to renew
the license and continued to do busi-
ness without state authority, until
about three weeks ago, when Inspector
Staples discovered that the county Off
cial was without license. He i'm
mediately reported the matter to State
Commissioner Anderson, who instruct
ed : the inspector to proceed in the
regular way against Mr. McCarron.
Staples filed an information against the
county commissioner, and, armed with
warrant, he arrested Mr.. McCarron.
The county commissioner was indig-
nant and threatened all sorts of dire
caiamities for State Commissioner An
derson's subordinate for his presump-
tion in daring to arrest such an i'm
portant parsonage. But Staples simply
said nothing and Whitfield. He took
the county commissioner before Judge
Orr, where the prisoner gave bonds for
his appearance for trial, pleading not
guilty to the charge of selling milk
without a state license The case was
cQrtinued.
It was called for trial on several oc-
casions afterwards, but Mr.. McCarron
secured continuances one after the
ether until last Wednesday, when the
county attorney appeared in court and
recommended that the case be dismiss

was finally decided for the plaintiff and
the interveners today by Superior
Judge Slack, sitting as a chancellor in
equity.
For five months the trial of the case
dragged along before a jury, TO which
it was finally submitted in three de-
cisive issues yesterday, but which, af-

court. Judge Slack intimated that he

NO MORE TORCH TALK.
Chicago Anarchists VIII Not he Al
lowed License.

CHICAGO, Sept. 14.-Infammatory
speeches, like those made in the two
meetings of Social Democracy branches
in which the collision between miners
and deputy sheriffs at Hazleton, Pa,
was made the excuse for advising
working men to appeal to the knife
and the torch, will not, the police au-
thoritfes state, be permitted In Chicago.
The right of the authorities to disperS;e
meetings in which such sentiments are
uttered and applauded has been dem
onstrated. Lucy Parsons and her
friends have been stopped times with
out number during the past ten years,
and two years ago Inspector Setback

'It was exactly that kind of talk"
said julius NJ. Grinnell, the state attor-
ney who prosecuted the anarchists of
1886. (which precipitated the Haymar-
ket riot I am not aware of any new
laws in Illinois covering such offenses,
but the old laws are good enough"
"We shall stop those meetings alto-
gether, if such talk as reported is con-
tinued," said Lyman Lewes, assistant
chief of police, who was at the head
of the department in the absence of
Chief Ripley. NJ am surprised at Muir

FIVE THOUSAND
MINERS.
S They VIII Be al Work
s i'm The Piffsbur8 Dis
5 fricf Today.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Sept. 14.-A large
number of mines in this district start
ed today, and a still larger number will
be in working order in the morning. At
least 5000 of the railroad miners will
be at work by Wednesday morning,
and quite a number of river diggers
will also resume. President Patrick
Dolan today met the men Of the Wheel
ing division at Finleyville. He made
a speech to LOO of them at the Hackett
mine He did not commit himself to
the men, as he had done to the oper-
ators, as to the ten-day clause, but,
as a result, they unanimously agreed
to start to work tomorrow. With the
exception of the Anderson mine all of
them will be busy While the convention
is being held in Pittsburg tomorrow.
The exception is on account of improve
ments necessary before the men can
work At the Anderson mine the men
will be handling picks again as soon
as they get in. The Pittsburg & Chi
cago Gas Coal company, which owns
the mines at GastonviIle. Snowden and
the Cox first pool, has had men at work
below the rate. They have been told
ludl lIICy w III 1lOW Sc Liz NNNAAAO NNNeN
as paid in the other mines of the di-
vision and will also start at work at
once. This makes uniformity all along
the Wheeling division.
Everything is an uprear there. The
operators are telegraphing for cars and
they want men-al1 the men they can
get at 65 cents J. E. Boyle, of the
Hackett mine, says that his mine will
be working full time in the morning.
The Keeling Coal company's mine, at
Lick Run, was working yesterday and
six cars of coal were got out. This
is the first break over the ten-day
clause in any considerable numbers and
Dolan did not objects Dolan left for
Mcdonald and Cecil, where he had
meeting with committee of the men
in that field tonight Nothing has yet
been done in the Panhandle district.
The miners are waiting and, until after
the convention to be held tomorrow,
nothing can be predicted The majority
seem to be in favor of not countenanc-
ing the ten-day clausesof the Columbus
convention, however. There is liable
to be a lively fight over the breaking
of the ten-day clause when the matter
comes up before the convention.

ANXIETY AT JACKSON
People of All Classes Trying to Es-
cape.


JACKSON, Miss, Sept 14.-There has
been another day Of excitement and
anxiety to the people of Jackson. Yes
terday the general movement of the
people to the surrounding country com
menced and it continued throughout
the night and today. This movement
is not restricted to any class of people,
but is participated in by rich and poor
The city is now surrounded on all sides
by an armed guard, and the quarantine
rules are enforced with great strictness.
The principal cause of alarm to the
people of Jackson came from Edwards,
only twenty-five miles distant, where
there are now thirty-fiVe cases of dem
que, at least ten of which were report
ed last night to be considered suspects
by Dr. =. H. Purnell, the fever expert
from Vicksburg, who has been station
ed at Edwards by the state board of
health. A statement received here at
noon by DR.. Purnell has reassuring
effect upon the people. 1t was to the
effect that the condition of affairs at
Edwards was not at all alarming, be-
yond the fact that there exists there
an epidemic of dengue. He reports
only one very sick person in town and
his condition is caused by an attack
of malarial fever, following from dem
que. From this statement it will be
seen that the three cases reported by
DR.. Purnell last night, as suspicious,
are so far recovered to be no longer
considered as such by him. Business
In Jackson is at a standstill.
DR.. Purnell, at Edwards, was tele-
graphed for additional information on
the situation there tonight, and the
following reply was received: "1nStruc-
tiCns of DR.. Hunter secretary of the
state board request that all reports
from me pass through his office. I
have just given him report of the
situation" 1t is understood that Pur-
nell here reported two cases of yellow
fever at Edwards-those of Capt Mont
gomery and Mrs. Sutler.
