District Relative to the Sew

THE WORKMEN CONFIDNET'.
That the Manufacturers Will Copcede
Their Demands and That There
Will be No Strike.

On Saturday md Sunday the several
local lodges Of the Amaignmated Assoc
citation Of Iron, Steel s. Tin Workers.
met to vote on their position with ref
erencc, to the pending unsettled iron
and tin-plnte scales. Readers will re-
call that. two conferences have been
held between the manufacturers and
committees Of the Amalgamated Asso-
citation, in efforts to bring about an
agreement on these scales, but both
were fruitless. and then as final
measure the iAmalgamated officials re-
ferred the matter to the local lodges,
to vote whether they would instruct the
officials to stand out for the original
demands made or, give the officials
certain lecway1 SO as to arrive at q
compromise agreement.
The Intelligencer learned yesterday
from q member of Crescent lodge, of
Wheeling, that 1t had voted to stand
out for the original scales presented by
the ,Amalgamated Association.
The Intelligcncer's informant also
stated that he understood that the sew
eral other local lodges Of the Amalga-
mated Association had taken the same
action as Crescent. These other lodges
are, Friendship, Prosperity and La
Belle, of Wheeling; Benwood, of Ben
wood, and Pearl, Mountain City and
Lewis Avon, Of Martins Ferry.
II the same unanlmlty OF sentiment
for holding out against. any compro-
mise exists In the other iron centers 1t
would appear 10 be settled that the
Amaigamated Association viii not
make any concessions to the manufac-
turers at their next conference.
The Amalgamated people express
their confidence that the manufacturers
will not hold out against them in the
event that the former stick to their
original demands.
There will be no strike" said we'll
known member OF the Amalgamated
Association to the Intelligencer yester-
day afternoon. when the time comes
for the next conference you Will see
that the manufacturers will concede
our demands. Influences will be
brought to bear which they cannot re-
slst."

Antitrust Test Case.

The first test case under the anti
trust act of the last legislature was
tried at Little Rock last week. An ice
dealer sued customer for an ice bill
amounting to $40. The customer did
not deny owing the money, but
claimed that the contract was void, in
asmuch as the dealer was member OF
pool or combination known as the ice
trust. Ice dealers and manufacturers
were placed on the witness stand who
testified that all manufacturers and
dealers sold ice at certain price and
required retailers to do likewise.
The court read that portion of the
statute which provides that If there
shall be an understanding between in
dividuals to regulate or fix the price OF
any manufactured article they shall be
deemed guilty of conspiracy to de-
fraud, and held that there was an un.
Outstanding among the ice dealers OF
the city to regulate the price of ice,
and consequently could not maintain
an action for the price Of the article
sold, because it is a contract made in
violation of the antitrust act.

Some question having arisen as to
the right of school directors to pur-
chase apparatus, etc, for their schools
out of the funds belonging to the dis
trict, Superintendent Doyne has sent
out an opinion with reference to the
matter, as follows:
81. Funds voted for teachers sal
aries and building purposes can be used
for no other purpose
80. If the fund be voted for general
purposes then the same may be used
for any purpose except for building
purposes or apparatus. If, however,
such apparatus be included in the esti-
mate of expenses submitted by direc-
tors, the amount mentioned in esti-
mate may be spent for same.
80. If the electors so vote in the
annual school meeting a sum not ex-
ceeding SIS may be spent from the
common school fund in the purchase of
Illustrative apparatus"

Thought to Have Been Lynched.

An alleged lynching occurred in Lee
county, the particulars Of which have
just become known. Several weeks
ago John Blunt. white merchant and
planter, and John Brodie, negro, had
difficulty at Raggio. Brodie attempt
ed to shoot Blunt, but was shot in the
face by another negro after he and
Blunt had exchanged several shots.
Brodie was arrested, tried before a
negro magistrate and bound over. He
was placed in the hands of two negro
constables. Blunt sent to Mariana
for deputy sheriff and w. ii. Ford re-
sponded. The negro was turned over
to Ford. Ford left Brodie in charge of
Blunt, man named Lyon and another
named Brewer, all white. During the
night Ford was awakened and told that
Brodie had escaped. Two weeks later
Brodie's body was found in the st.
Francis river, handcuffed, with bull
let in his brain. The white people of
Mariana became aroused and coro-
ner's jury found that Brodie had been
murdered while in the custody of Blunt
and Lyon. and the two were held for
murder. When the case came up for
hearing the two men were released on
bonds of $4,000 each

High temperature and general rains
were the characteristic features of the
weather during the past week. The
warm weather induced all vegetation
to take on rapid growth. On &C :ount of
the continuous rains farming operations
were seriously interfered with, and the
grass and weeds have made considerable
Roadway. Early-planted corn and
cotton look well, as they had been
laid by in good condition before the
period of wet weather set in, while
late-planted crops are growing finely,
but the fields are full Of grass and
weeds. Wheat harvesting is general
and the yield will be about the average;
some damage has been done to wheat
in the shock by the recent rains. Oats
are being harvested in some sections,
and the yield promises good. Irish
potatoes as a rule are good, and in
many places promise large yield. Fruit
will be abundant, except apples and
pears which have been injured and
continue falling from the trees.
The mean temperature and total rain
fall for the week at reporting stations
are given in the following table
