COKE STRIKERS ARRESTED. ‘Work Resumed on # Small Scale Without Interruption. Moowr Preasant, Pa., April 6.—Quiet pre- vails in the coke regions today. There hus been no disturbance of any kind. The first real effort to start the works since the riot was made this morning. By gctual count there were forty men at work and it was evident that the majority of them were old employes, as they drew out.good coke and did it in a shape. ‘The men were not interfered with in any way while going to work. It seems that the strikers | are too bediy frightened to disturb any one at | the present time. ‘his condition of affairs is, of course, due to the soldiers, who have their (me loaded with ball cartridges and seem to ave no fear of putting a ball into a man who comes too close to the line. WARRANTS FOR THE RIOTERS. Sheriff Clawson came over from Greensburg this morning and was ® very busy man. He had warrants for twenty-five of the rioters and will probably have warrants for about fifty more before the day is over. These warrants are all placed in the hands of the different constables and the deputies help in the arrests. This was the lively day for the different township officers, as they were ordered to go ahead with the arrests immediately, so that the leaders of the rioters will be safely jailed before the soldiers leave here. ‘SIX ARRESTS MADE. During the morning six men were arrested and there was considerable trouble in securing them. It has now become generally known among the strikers that warrants are out for the sup) leaders in the riot and they are keeping themselves hid as much as possible. Supt. Morris Ramsay returned from Greens- burg at 11 o'clock this morning and immedi- ately went before the squire and swore out warrants for the arrest of fifteen additional Italians. These warrants were placed in the hands of the constables and it is expected be. fore midnight at least thirty of the rioters will be in jail. AN IMPORTANT CONFERENCE. Sheriff Clawson had a long conference with | Superintendent Ramsey of the Morewood works nd General Superintendent Lynch of the Frick interests this afternoon, and it seemed to be of great importance. but none of the gentle- men would say much about it. The sheriff stated that they had decided on a move that in his opinion would put at rest all fears of vio- lence in the future. It is probable the eviction of tenants from the company’s houses will be commenced very soon, possibly this week. At any rate it will be done before the soldiers leave here and it is believed that this was the cause of the confer- ence between the sheriff and the representative of the operators. Several car loads of provisions were received today and distributed among the strikers. REPORTS FROM OTHER PLACES. Scorrpars, Pa., April 6.—Col. Smith of the eighteenthSregiment, N. G. P. A., reports the strikers quiet and orderly throughout the coke region today. Labor leaders today state that the excitement among the strikers has sub- sided and that they have not the remotest idea of any additional trouble. The large and small coke-producing com- panics made formidable efforts todo some work at their plants throughout the region today. General Manager Lynch of the H. C. F Company reports a satisfactory start at Leisen- ying. No. 2, Jimtown Sterling, Adelaide and wood. fore) ‘The Jimtown plant of Humphrey & Co. and Nellie plant of Cochran & Co. resumed to- day, but not to their full capacity. The above reported resumptions are denied at labor head- quarters here, but the Frick officials says they will ship fifty cars of coke today. pismo cadacas, THE EMBARGO REMOVED. Germany Has Resolved to Admit the Amer- ican Hog. Beruix, April 6.—It is announced that the German government has definitely resolved to withdraw the embargo placed upon Ameri- can pork. It is added, however, that the oftt- cial notice of this withdrawal will probably be delayed for some time in view of certain nego- fiations which are still going on between the | German government and the government of the United States throngh the intermediary of the United States minisier here, the Hon. Wm. Walter Phelps. — FROST IN ALABAMA, Considerable Damage Done to Tomatoes, Cucumbers and Other Early Vegetables. Mozitx, Ata., April 6.—A light frost yester- day anda heavy frost this morning did great damage in this track farming district. Toma- toes, cucumbers, squashes, beans and peas are killed; potatoes are cut and damaged 80 per cent. The cabbage crop is not materially injured. Fortunately the vegetables which have been killed do not constitute the main crop here, except potatoes, and some farmers express’ the belief that the potatoes will recover in a large degree from the effect of the frost. —— STOCKS FIRM AND STRONG. ‘The Market Opens With a Burst of Activity and Prices are Maintained. New Yor, April 6.—The stock market opened this morning with a burst of activity, in which the grangers, Chicago gas and sugar were the leading features, although there was also more animation in the general list and a larger num- ber of stocks were traded in than usual of late. ‘The market was decidedly strong in the early dealings and after opening advances of trom 34 to 4g per cent furt fractional gains were scored over the entire. list, while Chicago Burlington and Rock Island were specially minent in the upward movement, rising Y5;, Lper cent and $f respectively. Oordage and sugar’ also rose % each, but both retired later, and the upward movement meeting with stubborn resistence the entire list reacted par- tially in the latter portion of the hour. The leading stocks maintained a firm front, how- ever, and despite the reulizing sales the conces- sion from the best prices was insignificant. An active business was transacted throughout the hour and at 11 o'clock the market was still fairly active and firm at close to the best prices reached. ‘Money is easy at 23f and 3 per cont. The re- action in the stock market was followed after 11 o’elock by a renewal of the buying move- ment and further activity in the leaders was helped out by movemeute in C.C.C. and 8t ais, W423 you A GENERAL.

Ayxarotis, Mp., April 6.—Last Sunday » ™man named Henry School, a boatswain's mate on the U.8.8. Santee, at Eastport near Annap- lis, committed a criminal assault upon a thirteen-year-old orphan girt who was under his care at the time. Yesterday the people got wind of the affair, and a mob started to lynch him. He escaped in the direction uf Bay Ridge, where it is thought he took the steamer ‘acroas the bay or is concealed in the woods. Sheriff Armiger and Constable Sinall, aided y government steam launches, started ‘out to capture him last night, but so far nothing hae been heard of him. This affair, coming 60 soon after the hanging of Ernest Forbes for a similar offense, has created quite @ sensation, and if the offender is captured he will hardly be safe in the jail here. foie Sten THERE MAY BE A QUARREL. Possible Dispute Over Irish-Americans Recognizing Parnell as Leader. Sr. Lovrs, April 6.—The correspondence be- tween Dr. Thos. O'Reilly of this city, a mem- ber of the executive council, and President Fitzgerald of the Irish national party, will poa- sibly develope into a sensational controversy between the leading members of the league in America. The question at iseue is whether the league will stMll recognize Parnell as leader of the Irish party in parliament or in conse- quence of his deposition by a majority vote will no longer recognize him. “Parnell's conduct,” said Dr. O'Reilly, “has disqualified him asa leader of the Irish’ party. | This is the general opinion throughout America. There are, however, a few who are inclined to recognize Parnell as the leader. A dispatch from Vincoin, Neb., purporting to be from a friend of Mr. tegersid, with his sanc- tion denies the charge that I made against him of being inclined to favor Parnell and of call- ing the council of the national league together for the purpose of having the loague support him. The charge is nevertheless as Papers in my possession will show.” geascoritClaedlam ELECTION IN MICHIGAN, Supreme Court Justice and University Re- gents to Be Chosen. Dernorr, April 6.—Michigan votes today for a justice of the supreme court and two regents of the state university. There are practically but two tickets in the field—the republican, headed by Judge R. M. Montgomery, and the democratic, by Justice John W. Champlin, who is nominated as his own succestor. A GREAT CAVE-IN. Heavy Rains Do Considerable Damage to Multan Tunnel. Heres, Mont., April 6.—A cave-in in the great Mullan tunnel, eightcen miles west of here, on the Northern. Pacific railroad, occurred Yesterday morning. No estimate of the extent of the catastropht can be made until engincers arrive and make an examination. The tunnel is one mile long and about sixteen feet deep. A similar accident occurred two years ago and rendered the tunnel useless for several weeks. ‘The cave-in was due to the heavy rains of the past week. ee ee Coming in Thousands From Ireland. Duniix, April 6.—There is no abatement in the tide of Irish emigration. During the past week six liners took 1,426 persons, mostly of the farming class, but including a fow me- chanics, from Connaught and Munster. Fully two-thirds of the passage money of these people was paid by thetr kinsinen in America. All the steamers of the Inman and White Star lines a1 nounced to sail have full liste of passenger and everything indicates thet for the next three months the number of emigrants will be fally equal to that for the corresponding period of ——— FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

A TELEGRAM TO POSTPONE THEIR COMING FAILED TO REACH THEM—THE PRESIDENT DESIRES TO BE PRESENT AT THE CONFERENCE, WHICH NECESSITATES A DELAY. The Canadian cabinet officers who are in Washington for the purpose of discussing reci- procity with Secretary Blaine left their hotel jast before noon to meet Sir Julian Pauncefote at the British legation. They will probably call upon Secretary Blaine at the latter's house during the afternoon. It is understood that the purpose of the Canadians’ visit to Washing- ton is not to negotiate « treaty, for that they are not authorised to do. but simply by discus sion to try to arrange the basis for negotiations that ma; conducted between commissioners to be duly appointed on the part of the British tones and of the government of United States, ‘A LITTLE FLURRY OF EXCITEMENT. Accompanied by Sir Julian Pauncofote the ‘anadians called upon Secretary Blaine at his home just before noon. Their stay lasted but a few minutes, and,. returning to their hotels, they announced that they were about to leave Washington in afew hours. As said engagement shad been made by members of the party that indicated & purpose to stay in Washington at least a week, the news of the intended sudden depar- ture caused some surprise. This was set at however, by a statement from Bir Charles Tupper, who by way is not the Canadian minister of marine, but the Canadian high commissioner in Lon- don. Sir Charles said that he visited Secretary Blaine last Thuraday and was courteously re- ceived. He explained the desire of the Cana- dian governthent to lay the foundation for ne- gotiations that should broaden trade relations between the Dominion and the United States. Secretary Blaine met the proposal favorably and Sir Charles returned to Ottawa. to report the result to his government and to secure the presence in Washington today of Mr. Foster, minister of marine, and Mr. Thompson, minis ter of justice, Secretary Blaine having arranged to receive them. THE PRESIDENT WILL BE PRESENT. Subsequently Mr. Blaine learned that the Pres- ident desired to be prosent when negotiations | th were undertaken and his projected southern and western trip would not admit of that if the negotiations were to proceed at once. Accord- ingly Secretary Binine informed Sir Julian Pauncefote that a postponement would bo desir- able and the minister so telegraphed Sir Charles Tupper at Ottawa. But the party had started for Washington before the te was re- ceived and was not informed of the change of program until this morning. Messrs. Foster and Thompson will leave Washington at $ o'clock this afternoon for Ottawa and Sir Charles Tupper will go straight to London. He says that Sir Julian Pauncefote will notify the party when to return to Washington, which will be as soon as the President can conveniently give his attention to the negotiations. After the in~ terview with Secretary Blaine this morning the party called at the White House and left their cards for the President. WHAT CANADA WILL RAST. A dispatch from Ottawa, Ont., says in regard to the Canadian government's position on reciprocity with America: ‘‘Sir Charles Tupper has intimated that no arrangement can be effected unless Canada admits certain American manufactured articles free of duty in return for access to the United States markets. Although the government will not abandon protection asa policy, it will, beyond doubt, agree to place certain manufactured articles on the free list. The subject is one of considerable difficulty. No treaty confined to raw products, judging from Mr. Blaine’s own statement, would be acceptable to the United States, and it 18 uncertain how far the Cana~ dian government will satisty the United States in admitting manufactures free of duty. If the manufactures admitted are such as are now protected in Canada loud objections from the special interests concerned will go up. The specialization of particular products, though the best thing in the end, would give established American manufacturers the ad- vantage in the meantime, but behind the fact that they have got the start in the race come- thing would depend upon the special adaption of either country for the production of par- ticular things. In manufactures of weod Canada ought to be at no disad- vantage after specialization had been effected. In some branches of furniture Dominion man- ufucturers were pressed hard by outside com- petition before they begun to specialize and one of the largest concerns in the country ceased to be protitable in spite of the high duty. Ontario has to import her motive power and the Dominion commits the folly of taxing it. Reciprocity would give Canada free fuel. AFRAID OF AMERICAN COMPETITION. “Manufacturers, as a rule, are afraid of American competition on equal terms, but some are prepared to accept it in exchange for the choice of an extended market. ‘The greatest objection is already coming from manufacturers implements and from the sagar refiners. It is certain that Sir Charles ‘Tupper will make almost any sacrifice of established industries _ before returning home empty handed, as the farmers from one end of Canada to the other are clamor- ing tor closer trade relations with the United States. ‘The patrons of industry is becoming a power in the adopted unrestricted reciprocity as ‘Ihe Canadian or- ganization has its ¢ounection with that of the United States and the work of organization is being rapidly extended in Ontario. The objects of the organization are mutual protection, re- duced prices and unrestricted reciprocity. Farmers, mechanics and laborers are ali eligib for membership, but doctors, lawyers, mer- chants and bankers are all categorically ruled gut as non-producers, Sir Charles Tupper fecla the strength of this growing power.” peteelbbabeand td THE DISTRICT'S DIRECT TAX. An Additional Letter From Assistant Attorney ‘Thomas. ‘The following letter from Assistant Attorney S. I. Thomas regarding the “direct tax” was received by the Commissioners and is interest- ing: “In regard tothe question of the refund- mont of the direct tax about which I addressed youacommunication some days ago I notice by tho newspapers the matter has been re- ferred to the District auditor and that be has expressed himself somewhat differently to the advice I gave you. I assume that individ ual citizens of the District paid the ta: it they did not and the same was paid by the three corporations —_ existing in the District at the time namely, by the cor- porations of Washington and Georgetown and the levy court out of their respective ‘treasuries then the amount of the direct tax so pai belongs to the District and not to individuals. Several persons since my letter to you have exhibited to me tax bills which they claimed showed they had the | direct, tax, ‘but upon | examination of those bills they appeared to be mostly for internal revenue tax and not for direct taxes assuch. One gentleman had some bills signed by James Pilling as collector of taxes for the county in which were items for direct tax, but this must have been a mis- take, as the government, if it had collected the tax of citizens of this District would not have collected it through local officers, eo that un- less a tax was laid, unless by the levy court to reimburse the payment of the direct tax, the Uills in question are erroneous. In the insurrectionary states, wherever the army went the tax was collected by commissioners. Mr. Petty notes a difference between the District's quota of the direct tax and the amount paid into the treasury. This difference, I think, is explained by the fact that the law allowed a discount of 15 per cent for prompt payment. Germany's Interest in the Patent Centennial. The patent centennial committee have re- ceived a letter from the president of the patent office of Germany acknowledging the receipt of the invitation to attend tho celebration and ex- pressing his great interest in the event.

The Grand Jury cf the January term of the Criminal Court was finally discharged by Judge Bradley,this afternoon with the thanks of the court. They presented to the court special report in which they stated that they had made examination of « number of theater and hotel buildings as to the means taken for the aafety of life and limb in case of fire and panic and they had carefully noted the condition of fire escapes and alarms. Of the theaters they found the National, Ker- nan's, Harris’ and Lincoln Music Hall amply provided with means of escape. At Albaugh's they found that improvements could be made and the Globe is reported as wretchedly pro- vided with such means. ‘The Shoreham, Normandie, National. Metro- Politan, Riggs House and Ebbitt they report as being well arranged. They make a number of recommendations as to Willard’s and the Coreoran building and suggest an additional fire escape at the Inter Ocean building. ‘They report, after an inspection of the jail and alms house,that certain improvements are needed at both’ places, and for the better se~ curity of prisoners the jail should have six ad- ditional guards and the help at the alms house should be increased by two. Before leaving the room Foreman J. Blake Kendall was the recipient of a gold-beaded cane and Secretary F. A. rs handsome scarf pin. Capt. Hewes, the bailiff, and Mr. Farley, the messenger, received cash presents. — a DISTRICT GOVERNMENT. A POINT IN A LICENSE CASE. A peculiar case has just arisen with reference toaliquor license. Richard Driscoll keeps @ bar room at the corner of North Capitol and G streets, opposite the old Capitol Park. He has complied with every requisite except as to the number of signatures, he needing the ture of the owner of the Capitol Park. For this ree fon the license for the present year was refused. Today Mr. J. J. Johnson, the attorney for Dris- coll, wrote to the Commissioners that there are no tenants in the square,and that upon investi- gation he finds that an equity suit is now Pouding in the Supreme Court of istrict of Columbia wherein Scanlon et are complainants and Snow and others defen ants. The proceedings, he says, develop the fact that Mr. Snow gave a deed of trust to se- cure Mr. T. W. Smith, and that the point he makes is that the signature of Mr. Snow is not required, inasmuch as the legal title is not in him, but in the trustee. The jaw requires the legal owner. The trustee, he says, is the legal owner and Mr. Smith ‘the cestui que trust, and is in law the tenant. If the trustee and the cestui que trust signed the ap- plication that is all that is required. The at- torney for the District has been asked to render an opinion upon the legal points involved. THAT HOUSE ON SIXTEENTH STREET. Morris & Hamilton have written the Commis- sioners a lengthy letter calling their attention to the prosecutions, past and prospective, in the Police Court against the owners and tenants of house No. 1600 16th street northwest for the maintenance of an nuisance on the premises. The nuisance con- sists of old-style plumbing and the gentlemen call the Commissioners’ attention to sectio’ 11 of the laws and regulations relating to the pub- lic health in the District of Columbia. The sec- tion prohibits any water closets or other connections from being kept ina filthy condi- tion, Acting under the authority contained in this law the parties occupying were arraigned in the Police Court, but the case was die- missed. Thomas J. Fisher & Co., the agents of the house, were next called into court. They declined to tear out the old plumbing and were acquitted of the c of maintaining a nuisance. The letter states that the lady of the house was insulted by a Mr. Heard of the health office. The plumbing has been repeatedly examined and is pronounced perfect. An investigation will follow. a ‘Phe Coldest on Record. ‘The signal office today furnished the follow- weather on record for this season of the year. The minimum temperatures at Savannah and Jackaonvile wore 90 degrece, and 94 degrees ze- spectively, which were 3 degrees below the lowest previously recorded for April. Light frosts occugred this nah and Pensacola ’and and Jacksonville, which at tion is about two weeks later than and Monday mornings, warnings of which were issued by oaice on Gataray afternoon. ——-.._____ Or Isrenest To Huxtens axp Taarrens.— Assistant Secretary Spaulding has decided that certain guns imported into to engage an tapping are exempt from provisions of the free list for tools Barsrxo Govsuxuext Moxey.—The chief of the secret service division of the treasury has been informed of the arrest at dudge Miller Selects Those Who Will Listen to Police Court Cases. ‘This morning the trial of cases in the jury section of the Police Court was interrupted for | @ while and Judge Miller started the work of organizing the first jury provided for the court.

While many of them desired to be excused there were who were satisfied to sit in the box and hear cases. ACCEPTED AND EXCUSED. Wellington Naylor, colored, was the first to qualify. He answered all the questions satis- factorily and was accepted. E. M. Butler wae next called, and the person who ded claimed immunity because he spelled bis name Boteler.

Mr. Becker's excuse was taken up and he thought that, in addition to his sickness, he was being imposed upon by having to do jury duty so often. “That shows that your duties asa good citi- zen are appreciated,” said the judge. His case went over until the doctor can come into court and state his illness. Juror Summers had an excuse, but he wus also told to have his doctor brought into court. 5 RUN OVER BY A TRAIN.

Judge Miller reminded them that the cases to be tried would be heard soon after the com- mission of the offenses and the facts would be fresh in the minds of the witnesses. The judge said that if the jurors would pay attention to evidence and then come to a conclusion without too much delay he thought that the jury duty would be made comparatively easy, as experience during the past few days shows that the jury trials will be very light and will Not necessitate their presence every day. nanan ow actseaarit JUDGE KIMBALL’S Day, He Commences the Police Court Grind as if He Had Been Used to It. Charlie Washington, a colored boy, was the lender of the first procession of prisoners that marched into Judge Kimball's court this morn- ing and he was called upon to answer a charge of vagrancy.
