POWELL REMOVED.


New Jersey Representatives vacnte
ONCE OF Observation-Disclosures.
TRENTON, N. j., Feb. 26.--In the
house yesterday afternoon the special
committee appointed to investigate the
charges against Sergeant-at-arms G.. r..
Powell made Its report, and after
long debate Powell was removed from
Office. There were but nine votes cast
against the resolution offered by Mr..
Boyd, the Republican leader, declaring
the position of sergeant-at-arms va
cant. These votes were cast by Repub-
Leans, the Democrats voting solidiy
with the majority against Powell.
The report of the investigating com
mittee was presented by Chairman
Avis. The report sets out that the COM
mittee after hearing evidence in New
ark last Saturday reached the conclu-
sion that Powell went to Rev. G. G. Ed
munds, rector Of Grace Episcopal
church, Newark, and stated that he
had been informed by friend that
upon the payment Of $3.50 reward
church vestments stolen from the
church would be recovered and the
thief placed I'm custody. The commit
tee exonerated Powell from seeking to
profit personally by his action, but crit
icised his conduct as wrongful act
without any appreciation of its enor-
nifty and expressed the opinion that,
whatever may have been PowelPs mo-
tive in going to Rev. Mr.. Edmunds, the
committee was unable to find any ex-
tenuating circumstances which might
excuse him in disregarding his moral
obligations In the matter. The report
concluded with a recommendation that
Powell be dismissed and was signed by
all OF the committee, including Mr..
Schumann. the minority member.

THE STRIKING PUPILS.
Miss Hablitzel Explains the Washing
ton School Affair.

In communication to the American
Miss Hablitzel has the following to
say about the trouble in her room in
the Washington school:
Not until my pupils learned through
the Saturday morning paper that some
act of rebellion was expected of them,
was there anything but perfect attend
ance and obedience in my class room.
Neither was the slightest disrespect
shown. me on the street by any pupil
of the school before that time, or since,
all statements to the contrary notwith-
standing.
Monday afternoon, without the knowl-
edge of their parents, II of my pupils
(six girls and five boys remained out
of school. During the noon hour a
passing wood sleigh seemed to offer a
tempting chance to act on the enter
prising reporters suggestion to cut
loose from school obligations for few
hours.
Either the long homeward walk or
the parental admonitions following
their brief detection from the path of
duty had the good effect of restoring
their sanity, and Tuesday morning,
after an interview with the principal,
they returned to their tasks with their
faith sadly shaken III the wisdom of
sensational strike items. !.
/ feel very positive that hereafter
not even that enterprising reporters
'dares'' will be able to withdraw their
attention from school work.

BATTLE WITH MINERS.
Three Killed and Many Injured in
West Virginia.

west virginia.
CHARLESTON, w. Va, Feb. 90
At Stamford, Raleigh county, a terrible
battle took place at dawn between the
joint posses of Deputy United States
Marshal Cunningham and Sheriff Cook
on one side and rioting miners on the
other, as result of which three min
ers were killed, two others MORALLY
wounded and number of others on
both sides more or less seriously hurt.
The trouble grew out Of the attempt
to arrest thirty four miners for viola
ton of the blanket Injunction issued by
Federal Judge Keller last August. Dep
uty Marshal ID. w. Cunningham went
last Saturday to Atkinsville, a mining
town in Raleigh county, to arrest men
charged with violating the Injunction.
He was surrounded by large party of
miners armed with Winchester rifles,
who ordered him to leave the place, an
order which he quickly obeyed. Sheriff
Cook at this time attempted to make
some arrests under process issued by
the state court and was treated in
like manner.
Cunningham returned to this city
and reported to the marshal and dis
trict attorney that he could do nothing
without large force aud then only at
imminent risk of precipitating bloody
conflict. He was instructed to return
with men sufficient to serve the process
given him and to do 1t at all hazards
Before Cunningham returned to At
kinsville, however, Marshal John *.
Thompson and 8. @. Burdette, attorney
for the United Mine Workers, went to
the scene, spending most OF Sunday
and Monday there. They found every
thing quiet the rioters having with
drawn from the immediate neighbor-
hood and crossed New river, going into
camp 800 strong near the Big @ mine
on the north side.
Thompson and Burdette came home
Tuesday morning, and Cunningham
and strong posse went from here to
make the arrests. When Atkinsville
was reached, the federal forces were
joined by Sheriff Cook and his posse,
the coal companies near by furnishing
some guards, and the deputy and sher-
lie found themselves in command of
about 100 well armed men.
The posse met with mob of $50
miners armed with Winchesters, who
defied arrest and service papers They
followed defiance with hostilities, open
ing fire on the deputies at Gnce.' The
deputies responded, and the battle
ragged furiousiy for several minutes.
After the posse had repulsed the
miners they followed up their adyan-
tage and secured the arrest of over 100,
who were brought to Beckley under
guard. Cunningham and posse have
gone back to the scene and will arrest
every one implicated
An ugly strike in progress there ia
the cause Of the trouble. Most of the
strikers are foreigners.

made complaint to Mills and he tried
to calm Page, but the latter was I'M
willing to remain quiet. He called
Mr. Mills vile name. After a few
minutes Mr. Mills returned to his own
room, but Page was determined to
make trouble and several times there
after Mr. Mills had to tell Page either
to cut 1T out OF to go and take walk
for himself. Page decided upon the
latter course, but before so doing he
tested the strength of his fist upon
pane Of glass in the door For this
his landlord, Mr. Mills colored gen
tleman, had him arrested The ac-
cused said in court that the trouble
was started because his landlord was
In a huff because he was somewhat
