TUESDAY EVENING. OCT. IA, 1902

The FINISH Of the protracted strike
of the anthracite coal miners in Penn
sylvania is in sight, and sigh of re-
lief has gone up from one end of the
country to the other. The cloud has
parted at last and it is hoped that ITS
fragments will soon be chasing each
other out of sight No matter by whom
this great desideratum has been brought
about, all will rejoice that the cruel or
deal is over and that the proposition
made by the ownels of the mines is
favorably received by those directly in
terested (the miners) whether it pleases
their leaders or not. There is consider
able comment over the fact that }.
Pierpont Morgan has been an important
factor in pouring oil on the troubled
waters. and many observe that he has
shown more power than the President
of the United States who tried in vain
to lead the contending parties peaceably
out of the tie-up. All this may be true,
but if he was the only man who could
part ths cloud and he has acted pro
bono publico let the good which will be
the outcome draw veil over anything
else in Mr.. MOrgan's commercial
career which has heretofore pro-
voked criticism. The operators pro-
position. the full text of which
will be found in today's Gazette,
is logical from beginning to end.
1t appeals to the good sense Of each one
who has been compelled to interest him
self i'm the issue between the miners and
GENERATORS. and while Mr.. Mitchell is in
a sense ignored, the issue is narrowed
down to him, and it is therefore for him
TO saw whether or not this senseless
STRUGGLE is to be continued. The con-
sensus of opinion is that he should III
terpose no barrier against the miners re-
turning to their work. Probably he will
not If he is a man of any foresight he
will readily see that should he repudiate
the oyertures of the operators and treat
with indifference the wishes Of the people
of the country, he will surely turn the
tide against him as well as those he rep
resents. and sympathy heretofore ex-
pressed for the miner will be stifed. We
do not know who his advisers may be.
Let us hope they are men OF sober
thought and discretion.

SINCE THE coal strike has opened the
ewes of the peopleto the injustice OF the
tariff laws all kinds of excuses are being
made for their enactment Secretary
Moody has been telling republicans in
the west that the 81 cent Guty on an
thracite coal was struggled into the
tariff act in sneaking and cowardly
manner" but this statement is without
foundation. The duty was first fixed in
section Ais, thus: Goal, bituminous,
and all coal containing less than ninety
two per centum of fixed carbon =
sixty-sevel cents per ton of twenty-eight
bushels, eighty pounds to the bushel. p"
Afterward it was provided, in section
523. that "coal, anthracite, not special
" provided for in this act should come
in free of duty. The ninety-two per
cent. proyiso was designed to shut out
Nova Scotia anthracite from New Eng
land, this coal averaging from So to 30
per cent. fixed carbon. Welsh coal runs
close to the limit, butstill below it. No
secret was made in Congress of the
design to prevent all foreign coal from
entering the United States without pay
ing duty. As the Philadelphia Record

immediate recessions from advanced figures

regard to the proposed strike settlement, many
traders regarding il as in the nature Of back

pleasant future consequences. After the first
half hour the activity Of speculation sub
sided somewhat and the tone Of the market

CONGRESSMAN WILLIAMS, OF Mlssls-
sippi, who has recently returned to
Washington from a canyassing tour in
the north, under the auspices Of the
democratic congressional committee,
comments rather severely in the follow
ing language upon the utterances OF OF a
few democrats who have thought it UNI
wise for their party to control the next
House. as the republicans will have the
Senate and the President. He said :
81 have seen the discussion of So
called democrats, who are saying that in
the cause Of good government, and in
the interests of the democratic party, 1t
would be best for the democrats to lose
the next House. While not presumng
to confirm what has been said to the
effect that the democrats who say this
are asses, l am fully prepared to say
that the assumption underlying the
statement is that all democrats are fools.
A democratic majority in democratic
House, under wise snd proper leadership,
will have common sense and common
conscience enough to outline for aPresi-
dental campaign proper policy upon
which democracy will win. If it has
not these elements it ought not to win.
A democratic House can be trusted, be-
cause democracy is fundamentally right,
and federalism, under whatsoever guisc
or name. is fundamentally wrong.
Democratic representatives in Congress
are not blatant fools, who can be looked
10 only to voice the future prospects OF
their party's success, as is assumed by
those who say it is better for the party 5
future not to have democratic House "
This is common sense and should be
needed by all democrats whose efforts
should be to elect everybody they can
and whenever they can. Even with the
President and the Senate against a
democratic House, the latter could pre-
vent much pernicious legislation if they
could not secure the enactment of good
democratic laws.

MARRIED TWO MEN IN TWO
HOURS.

As Miss Marie Roypen, of Baltimore,
and Samuel Oren, of Philadelphia, were
walking down the aisle of the Moses
Montefore Synagogue last night to be
married, Joseph Goldberg, in the pres
ence of hundreds of witnesses, stepped
in front of the pair. The bride scream
ed and threw out her hand as though to
protect herself. Goldberg seized it,
Slipped a newly-minted silver half-dollaI
into her glove and then placed ring on
the tip of her finger.
Then in a loud voice, he announced IN
Hebrew that in the sight of God, Abra-
ham and the company there assembled
Marie Roypen was his wife.
Instantly the church was filled with
discordaht cries. Mr.. Oren threw him
self face downward in the aisle and cried.
The parents of the bride, Mr.. and
Mrs. David Roypen, protested against
the interruption and cried out to Rabbi
Tobias Goodman to proceed with the
ceremony.
A long discussion followed in an at.
tempt to convince the rabbi that the
marriage just performed by iIr. Gold
berg was lacking in the essentials de
manded and not considered binding by
orthodox Jews.
The weeping bride stood mute, wiring
ins her hands. Suddenly she touched
the PROSTATE 0ren, and as he raised his
tear-staincd face, she cried out:
II cannot marry you, Sam. In the
sight of God and man ! am Joseph
Goldbcrg's wife. | am his wife in the
eyes of our faith.
Rabbi Goodman decided to take two
hours for deliberation. At the end 0
that time it had been proved to his salts
faction that Goldberg had not uttered
the words of the marriage contract en-
tirely correctly, and that this made the
one-sided union invalid.
The rabbi called Oren and Marie be-
fore him and pronounced them to be
husband and wife.
The company was divided as to the
Justice Of Rabbi Goodman's decision, the
men declaring he was right, while nearly
every woman denounced The act, averr-
ing that Joseph Goldberg was Marie's
real husband.
Despite this difference % opinion more
than 1000 guests attended the wedding
feast at Powhatan Hall later in the even
ing.
Goldberg declares he will fight to be
declared the rightful bridegroom. He
says that according to the old Orthodox
Jewish faith, which is held by both him
self and the BRIDE that when a man places
new coin in a maidens hand and a ring on
her finger, and in the presence of three or
more winessc proclaims her his wife, she is
his wife.
Three rabbits of the Orthodox Hebrew faith
are to meet in conference this week TO decide
whether Marie is Orens or Goldberg's WIFE
Late last night Oren applied for warrant
at the southwestern police station for the ar.
rest Of Goldberg and his wife. He declared
they had eloped.
