How Homestead’s Butcher Has Suffered by the Lockout. A Pitteburg dispatch says: The locked-out steel workers of Homestead successfully boy- cotted Adolph Doerer, the town’s principal butcher, who, deprived of Homestead business, will thereby lose $10,000 a year. The attack has been short but effective. He has had to close up one place of business, call in ice wagons selling twenty tons a day and stop his milk business. The other place of business, he says, he will contirue to run regardless of cost and sell to the men in the mill and officials at any event. Last night Mr. Doerer explained how per- sistent and systematic the boycott has been. He was hed by some of the strikers who told him that they would do. him barm if he sold to the non-unionista. He told them that be was in the business to sell to those who had the money to buy. Among those who were active against him, he said, were two members of the advisory committee. “I was told I would have to quit selling to the Carnegie Hotel, Superintendent Potter, Mr. Currey and others or see the advisory com: tee and get a permit to sell to them.” Mr. Dvcrer said he told them that he could not recognize in the advisory committee any authority that should dictate how his business should be managed and the idea of his applying to them for a it was ridiculous and an out- rage on American liberty. A systematic bov- eott followed and his customers were dail; warned to ko: most of the c.tizens of Homestead are steel workers, the boycott thrived. The saloon keep- ers, to whom he also sold, warned him that they would be boycotted if they bought of him ice, &c. Finally, when he continued selling the Carnegies, they joined in the boycott. Mr. Doerer is consulting to see what legal redress he may have. ——_—_—_+e2_____ TO SMOKE OUT THE MINERS, How It is to Bring Coal Creek Refagees to Daylight. Avsensation has been created at Coal Creek by the statement that the military authorities had determined to smoke the mines and thus drive oat miners who are believed to be hiding im them. It has been suspected for some time that several of the much-wanted leaders of the rioters had found shelter in the mines, where they have been comparatively safe from pur- suit, as it would be folly for the soldiers to at- tempt to find them. The subject of trying to smoke them out has been discussed for some and the statement is authoritatively made that it has been decided to take such action. he prison inspectors and the lessees bad a ference yesterday concerning the convicts, and it was given out last night that the lessees would rebuild the stockades at Inman, Oliver Springs and Tracy City and return the convicts to the pinces under heavy guards. Cver 400 miners, suspects and citizens have been arrested at Coal Creek and in its vicinity. Cne hundred and fifty are still held prisoners ims little church. The prison is ciose, hot and uncomfortable in every way. The floor is cov- ered to the depth of an inch with mud and to- Baceo juice.

The emperor, moreover, is | Said to have acknowledged explicitly that) the | two-year term was the baxis of the new bill, as has been generally understood. ¥ rinciple of the new army bill, round which the combat of political parties is gather- | ing, is the Scharnhorst principle that the whole | people must bear weapons. The Dill was con- | ceived by the emperor's advisers, notably Count von Caprivi, in view of the threatening attitude of the dual alliance. Both William and | his chancellor are that Germany must, in her next war, fight armies on her eastern and. western frontiers. As, with the new rifles the loss of life will be at least 40 per cent higher | than in former wars, the present reserves of the | German army would not suffice for continuing for any of time this double fight against | France Russia. Only by putting under | arms every available man in the empire could recruit simultancously a force fighting Russia and a force fighting France. The increase of the appropriations contem- plated by the new bill is said now to have been | greatly underestimated, the lowest possible fig- ure being 100,000,000 marks. The government, it is said, proposes to raise this eum by adopting | the English tobacco tax system and collecting a high tariff at custom houses, while forbidding tobaceo culture in Germany. This will necessi- tate, however, the indemnification of 22,000 to- | bacco growers in Germany, and will excite as | widespread opposition aa Would an increase of the beer tax, as the lower and middle classes are almost unanimously for cheap liquor and to- | baceo. The independents, social democrats and national liberals are bitterly opposed to both of the proposed taxes, and it was to them espe- cially that the emperor addressed his warning at the banquet as regards cheese-paring plan for the army. ——— Wormeer Says It is Blackmail. Young Wormer, who is being sued in New York by his former mistress for absolute di- vorce, had a long talk yesterday with Inspector Byrnes, and, while no report was had of the conference, it is understood to have been for the purpose of prosecuting for blackmail the woman in the case. A brother of the defend- ant said that the woman had been levying black- mail upon Maurice. He had paid her from time to time. always with the understandin that it was « final settlement. But she wouk come back again. The brother said that Maurice might as well expose the woman and have done with being bled by her. She would never let up aslong as she could get a dollar. The ex- pose which the brother hinted at is said to be with respect to the woman's method of getting money, as well as about the origin of Maurice's acquaintance with her. Maurice Wormser is married to Florine Ranger, the daughter of Sol Ranger, the cattle king. The wedding took place lust April. ‘The couple are now living im their summer cottage at Monmouth Beach. | Mist Turner wants from the wealthy banke son the little sum of $100 a week and #1.000 | down for counsel fees pending the decision, | The briefs in the case will be submitted next Friday. It is likely that a history of the woman's career will accompany them. ——_—+ee___ ‘Caused Excitement in Rome. A Rome dispatch says great excitement bas been caused there by the dismissal of Cardinal Ruggiero, prefect of financial affairs of the propaganda, who has been looked upon by many as the probable successor of Pope Leo XIII. It 1s suid that the pope himself ordered Ruggiero's dismissal, being convinced as a result of inquiry mit. | that Ruggiero and not Monsignor Folchi was the really guilty party in connection with the misstatements, to use a mild term, for which Monsignor Foichi was dismissed from the papal | service about a year ago. The dismiseal of | Folchi was brought about, it is said, by Cardinal | | Ruggiero. Folcht was vice chamberlain to the | pope and had control of the papal funds. Later investigations, however, which have been uietly going on, appear to have exonerated | Foichi and implicated Ruggiero. rs 2 A Bag Full of Bogus Dollars. Caleb Uppur, a negro of that county, was ar- rested at Cape Charles, Va., last night with a canvas bag of about 100 counterfeit dollars, date of 1888, in his posse@ion. He says a white man yesterday gave him the bag saying, “I've too much silver; it's too heavy; take it | | and change it for paper or small coin and I will | give you 5 cents on every dollar.” The white man cannot be found.

Secretary John W. Foster and Attorney General Miller had no information on the subject and the former said he doubted the truth of the report. At the office of the commissioner of internal revenue | the improbability of the proposed action at this time was pointed out from the fact that no test case under the luw could possibly arine until the | 5th of May, 1893, as one year after the passage of the act iv allowed Chinese residents in which to take out certificates of residence required by the act. ———_+o<__—_. “The Innifred at Sitka. | Capt.

Lackawanna Switchmen Join the Army of Idle Men. One hundred and twenty-five switchmen4 struck in the yards of the Lackawanna and the Buffalo, Rochester and Pittsburg at Buffalo yes terday afternoon, Thus within two weeks past switchmen have struck in all the yards centered there. The men who went ont have been re- placed by others, who are now doing the work inall the yards, so that there is now actually no strike of switchmen in any Buffalo yards, ex- cept one, where forty men struck Monday," and the two where the workmen quit yes terday. The Lackawanna was temporarily crippled, thongh she is said to have near at hand recruite enough to man her switches, Aman who was formerly a Lehigh switch- man late yesterday afternoon was one of four men who were throwing stones at the picket lings of the twenty-second regiment at the Le- high tracks of the Lake Shore. ‘The men were fired upon and the one referred to fell, danger- ously shot. Throughout therecent strike history at Buffalo the Lackawanna men have been avowing alle- giancetotheroad. All their demands, it is stated, had been granted. Their hours and pay had been fixed to suit them, being the hours and rates for which other switchmen struck. Lack- awanna men have affirmed that they would fight for the road and would never leave it. ‘A train load of western freight was shunted into the Lackawanna yards from the Lake freight yards. Soon ‘after the men quit— about 125 in number—Superintendent Seabert of the road says the freight was common lake freight and not.as the strikers alleged, from the Lehigh Valley road.

The Lehigh Valley railroad officials sent word. to Superintendent “Morgenstern that Heimerle was interfering with his passenger trains. ‘They were advised to swear out a warrant eharging him with awaulting non-union switchmen, This they did. ‘The police were ordered to look for Heimerle. Detectives located him, and he was arrested. He was taken to Superintendent Morgenstern’s office. Heimerle was asked if he had been assaulting anybody. He replied that he had not. Super- intendent Morgenstern told Detectives Jordan and Cannon to search him, and they found a 38- caliber revolver in his pocket. “Oh, yes, you are a nice lot of fellow: Superintendent Morgenstern to Heimerle. are conducting a peaceable campaign, aren't you? You favor the withdrawal of the troops, xet go around armed to the teeth.” And the ead of the police department took seven big bullets out of Heimerle's gun and carefully put them in his desk. Heimerle furnished bail and was released. E. E. Clark of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, grand master of the Order of Railway Conductors,was “hicago last night on bis way to Buffalo.” In an interview he said that as far as he knew the | conductors had no grievance to right, and added: “But what may develop after I have ar- rived on the scene I'cannot predict.

After waiting six days, during which time he was watched and questioned, a messenger came to him, telling him that he would have to go un- armed, permit himself to be searched and if any one followed the reporter and the followers would be killed. In the midst of a forest the reporter was blindfolded and led into the pres- ence of five men of the gang, who were assembled in o natural opening.

The London World saya Gen. Sir Frederick Ponsonby, the queen’s private secretary, in conveying to Mr. Gladstone her majesty’s com- mand to form a ministry stipulated that Mr. Labouchere should not be selected to fill any post in the government. Mr. Labouchere, the World adds, was implored to get Mr. Glad- stone out of difficulty by writing a letter de- claring that he would not accept office, as he wished to remain independent. This Mr. Labouchere declined to do. Overtures have since been made to him to accept the revived title of his uncle, Baron Taunton. Mr. Labouchere publishes in the London Truth an account of the circumstances of his exclusion from the government. He sayshenever thought of seeking office; that he never asked a minister in esse or posse for anything, and that he doos not contemplate ever doing #0. Mr. Labouchere adds: n emissary informeg me, presumably as quit pro quo, that Mr. Glad: stone would always be glad to consult me gn | public affairs.” After asking why it should be suggested to him to write a letter renouncing oles ke says: “I certainly understood that the queen had in some way, direct or indirect, led Mr. Gladstone to arrive at the fact mm} joining the government would not please her,” Assuming that the queen expressed such a sentiment, Mr. Labouchere says he thinks it is to be ‘regretted that he may not have seen eye to eye with the queen in all matters, but admits that he always regarded her as strictly constitutional. His interpreta- tion of the constitution is, he says, that the queen selects the premier and leaves him a free hand in the choice of colleagues.

If he had consulted his chief lieutenants more it might have been @ifferent. Mr. La- bouchere says he has most confidence in Bir Wm. Vernon Harcourt.
