A Remarkable coincidenca.
From the Johns:own Tribune

AVt'' ttfN "Vstat'.of'- A'HNt'
Eight years ago to-day David and
Joseph Nicely, two brothers. were on
trail In the Somerset Curt House for the
murder Of Herman Umberger, near Jen-
nertown on this day a similar ease pro-
crosses at the same place against two 9TH
err brothers-James aud John Roddy =
who are held to answer for the murder OF
David Berkey. near RnmmeL. \ strik-
ing similarity runs throughout the two
cases. All four OF the defendants were
young men, aIl none were residents OF
the usually peaceful vicinity in which
the crimes were committei, the Niceiys
haiIing from Ligonier and the l;oddys
from the vicinity of Johnstown.
The offenses were much alike, differ
ing OF course in detail. But both were
brutal and cowardly; both were assaults
on the father and husband, in the pres
ence of his family, in the darkness Of the
night, in the quietness of their farm
homes, in the neighborhOod where assist
ance was some distance away, both being
in the nOrtherly part of the county and
not far apart. The Umberger homicide
was ON the southerly side Of the Joseph
Johns residence, where similar brutal
attack was made foTty-ive years ago, but
without fatal results; the Berkey assault
on the noFtherly side Of this place. All
three are very nearly in a line from north
to south. Both offenses were for the pur-
pose Of robbery. In the UmbeTger case Il
is said the Nicelys procured between SIS, =
600 and $4,000; in The Berkey case the
amount secured was but small.
The Nicelys were convicted. on an ap-
peal 10 the Supreme Court this finding
was affirmed, and both were executed.
The Roddys convicted on the first trial,
secured a rehearing, which is now In
progress

SPE CIAL AGENT CALHOUN has gath
cred enough facts about the Ruiz case
TO make report to the president. His
visit was a short one, but il was long
enough TO accomplish the purpose in
view. Consul General Lee was able to
furnish him with the necessary data.
and these, supplemented by what Mr..
Calhoun himself was able to gather.
have been sufficient 1t was wise 10
send a special agent Of the Presidents
own choosing for this work, inasmuch
as General Lee has been accused of
leaning too much toward the side of
the insurgents. 1t is worth noting,
however, that all the reports that have
come from Cuba from travellers, news
paper correspondents, and even from
government officers, who have been
careful to keep within proper official
limits, have been substantially of the
same sort.
Mr.. Calhoun was sent TO look into
the Ruiz case, but il has been pretty
well understood that his duties Were
not to end there. The case of the
Americans on the island who are in
need of food and clothing. and the
treatment the Cubans in the country
have received from Weyler, viii be re-
ported TO the President. The consuls
of the United States in Cuba know the
true condition Of things, and what
they cannot report upon officially Mr..
Calhoun can tell the President.
IL is doubtful if anything that can
be said can add TO the horror of the sit
uation. 1t has been well established
that thousands of people are on the
verge of starvation. 1t is an inhuman
proceeding to force women and eiiil-
dren into the towns, where il is impos
sible for them to secure food enough 10
sustain life. Weyler, having shown
the world that he cannot beat Gomez
in the field, has resorted to an uncivil-
ized method of warfare in starving
women and children. The condition
of the spanish army, half clothed and
decimated by disease, is of itself evil
denee that Spain's efforts are doomed
10 fail.

THE heavy merchandise imports at
the present time mean correspOndingly
light imports a few months hence.
This will, at the outset, keep the reve-
nues under the new tariff law, but it
will, at the same time, make a very
large merchandise balance in the coun-
fry's favor. As a consequence, while
the governments receipts will be COM
paratively small for while, the gold
inflow will he large. The gold which
goes out these days will not be gone
long.

Some Recent Deaths.

Wesley w. Davis, notice of whose seri-
Gus sickness and removal to the Western
Pennsylvania Hospital, at Dixmont, was
made in the HERALD two weeks ago,
died at that institution at three o'clock on
Saturday afternoon. Wesley w. Davis,
was a member of Co. A, 10th Pa. Res,
