MOVING COAL TO-DAY. ‘The Strikers’ Places Filled by Italians and Bohemians from Scranton. JaneEY Crrv, N. J, Jan, 18—The strike among the coal handlers in Weehawken, Hoboken and Jersey City still continues, but the companies are moving large quantities of coal. There was no demonstration at any of the docks, and work ts betng rushed forward without molestation from the strikers. The various docks have been put into telegraphic communication with the Jer- sey city police headquarters, and a patrol wagon. is held in readiness at the city’s prison yard for an emergency. Superintendent’ Young, @f the Dela- Ware and Hudson company, at Wehawkan, has about 100 men at work on the docks, which isa larger force than was employed before the strike, ‘The strikers have refused to go to New York for their pay and demand that_ their wages be paid at the company’s office in Weehawken at ‘Une usual hour. it is feared that trouble will occur if the company does not yield to the de- mand. At Hoboken, the Delaware, Lackawanna and ‘Western Railroad company have 200 men at work this morning in moving coal. The men, consisting of Italians and Bohemians, were bronght from Scranton, Pa., and the company 1s improvising ae to accommodate them in freight cars un- Ui the difficulty has been settled. A Disease Resembling Pink-Eye. CREATING ALARM AMONG PITTSBURG HORSE OWNERS. Prrrssvxe, Jan. 18.—A peculiar disease, said to be the dreaded pink-eye, has been raging for the past few weeks among the horses of the Trans- verse railway. The complaint has rendered forty- six horses unfit for service and a number. have died. The symptoms are sald to greatly resemble those of pink-eye. The animals suddenly become pairs Tefuse to eat and stand almost motionless in their stalls, and the eyes become inflamed and watery. The disease first made its appearance among a number of horses which the company re- gently brought from St; Louis. It has been sprend- ‘very rapidly, and, although not general fatal, has been very disastrous, —— Gov. Biggs Inauguarated. ‘THE NEW CHIEF EXECUTIVE OF DELAWARE, Dover, Det., Jan. 18,—Governor-elect Biggs was duly inaugurated at noon to-day in Court House hall in the presence of as many people as could crowd into the building. The oaths of office were ee by Chancellor Saulsbury, on the inely 1532, always used on such occasions. The governor then delivered bis inaugural address, in which he advocates the Calling of a constitutional conven- Uon, favors district representation, the election of county officers and the legalization of the primary elections, regards civil service reform as sometuing to be confined to the party in power, advocates the continued coinage of sliver and the payment of government empioyes in that coin, and favors tariff reduction. ——_.__ St. Louis Tobacco Workers Strike. ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY KNIGHTS GO OUT WITHOUT PREVIOUS NOTICE. . Sr. Locrs, Jan. 18.—On Saturday last when John E. Liggette, president of the Liggette « Myers Tobacco company, learned of the strike at Loril- Jard’s, in Jerse: ity, he remarked: “Whenever there is one strike of this kind you will be sure to hear of one or two following it. Yesterday Mr. Liggette’s predictions were partially fulfilled When about 150 hands, allof them Knights of Labor, in the wrapping and machine depart- ments struck work. The firm had received no in- timation that their employes had any complaint against them and could therefore assign no cause for the strike. Tne employes, however, stated that district assembly, No. 17, Knights of Labor, had formulated charges against the company, and later in the a committee from the district Waited upon Mr. Myers to talk over the matter with him and attempt to reach a_settie- ment of the dimeulty. Mr. Myers, however, re- fused to treat with any labor organization or to reemploy any of the strikers except those who had been intimidated into stopping work.
