MADE THE Serious Situation that Now Exists in the Pennsylvannia Coal Regions, HUNGARIANS FORCE THE AMERICANS OUT Foreigners Make a Tour of the Pits and Compel the English-speaking Workers Who #1ad Returned at tho Kes duoed Rato to Quit. Pirtsnera, Jan, 27.—The foreign striking miners along the Panhandle railroad are rioting in the vicinity of Manstield, Pa., and juble is apprencnded, Sheriff Richards was notified this morning that the wituation was critical and he imwediately left for the scene with twenty-five deputies. Others will follow him later. The foreigners are inan ugly framo of mind because the Kngush-speaking miners returned to work atthe reduced rateand they determined to bring them out ain. ween 300 and 400 m mostly Hungarians, assembled near Woodvilleabout daybreak and, armed with revolvers, clubs and stones, marched on the mines now in operation, Armstroug's works were first visited and the miners compelled to fiee for their lives. I'he rioters next went to Stoen's and to Orville, where the men were also driven out. At 10 o'clock they marched on the works of the Pittsburg Fuel com pany at Tom’s Run. After forcing the men to leave, the rioters destroyed the tipple und derailed o number of cars. Tney are now aaid to be marching on the Block Coal company's works A Tt1s said & number of persons were in- Jured, but as far as could be learned no oue was Killed.

Arguments in the petition of the directors of the Northern Pa- citie railroad for the possession of the books and for money to pay have be comploted, and the matter been tal under advisement by Judg 1ns. It will be some time before a deci is rondered; e — CONTESTING SCHNELL’S WILL, Children Claim flo Was Under Wrong In- Naences in Making It Something like & guarter of a century ago, derick Schnell came to this city and in- vested his money m real estate. The nest egg wis not a large one, but it continued to grow with the city, and iv had not been for some outside speculatidns, at the time of his death e would have been a willionaire. ilven flguring in these speculations, when he died, December 11, 1803, his wealvh was estimated to reach the thousands, con- sisting of money in the bank, notes secured on real estate and city lot The old man was 51 ye: of age and for some time prior to the date heretofore re- forred to, had roomed at the corner of Thir teenth and Jackson streets, preferring to stay there instead of residing with his chil- dren, of whom there were seven, who lived in the southern part of the city and in South Omaha. Some years ago Schinel! met Robert Priess, a buteher and saloon keeper, whose place of business was near Fori Omaha, and even- tually the two men became quife chummy, s0 mich so that during whe latter part of sast November the old man was induced 1o take up his bed and remove to tho Priess residence, where ho remained until he died. ‘The children, several of whom are com- fortably situated, had time and again offered the old man a home, but each time he had refused, saying that he proposed to tako care of himself so long as he could keep upon him feet. The y knew where he had been roo ing and kn“w that he was in good health, so they were not worried over the fuct that he was staying alone m the Thirteenth street bloclk, On December 11 the children read in Tne BEE that their father was dead and that ho had died at the residence of Robert Priess the extreme vorthern end of the city. Shortly after being informed of the death of the old man, vaey wont after the corbse, as Priess was willin: to have it buried at their expense. the season of mourning had passed for the property was made, and thon it w aiscovered that two days ' before bis death Frederick Schnell had willed every pe of his estato to Robert Priess. In due time the will was filed for probate, and thay started the flght. The case was conticued until yesterday in order toallow both sides an opportunity to don their nghting garmen When the case was called in Judge Baxte: court, Priess went upon the stand and tated that he knew that the old man had cousiderable property, that he did not get along well with his children, and that a few days before his acath he was induced to re move from his Thirceenth street room. Both Priess and his wifo msisted thay they did not iwduce the old maf to make the will, cutting off the children, averring that his action was of his own volition, When the other side takes the stand, the witnesses deelare that they will prove to the sutisfaction of the court that Priess fnew that the old man had but a few days tolive, and that they thought by getting him their * clutches amd pois: his mind agaiust his childven, he' ana bis wifo would wasily secure all of the property by having it bequenthied to them, and that there would never be any questions asked. In addition 1o this, they point to the fact that the will wis oxecuted ouly two days prior to the death of theie father, and declare thav at that timo the old mal was nov in his right miad and did not know what he was doing. - ) THE CASE, Armour & nom. e oleomargarine orizinal package cases were settlod today 1 tho United States court. Stato Dairy Com- missioner Anderson had seized olcomargarine in Minucapolis betongiug to Avmour & Co., and tuat fivm brought suit in the United States court, securing a temporary injunc- tion against interforence by the state dairy commissioners in their inerstate business in original packages of oleomargarine and vutterine. Commissioner Anderson i court today statea thut the soizure of the original packages had been through a mistake, as tho zaod iutention of the Armour company was not deniad, and be had no inteniion of iterforing with the interstate law in the 5 of original packages of oleomargavive, butterine and cottolone. The injunction was thereupon removed ——— Wil Repudiate the Honds, Storx Crvy, Jan. 2. -[Speclal Tologram to Tur Bew]—Judge Ladd today granted the citizons of O'Brien county o temporary injunction restraining the treasuver, auditor und supervisors of that county from vaying any of tha prinoipal or interest of a §145,X00 refundiug bond issue made in 1808.

Cmcaco, Jan, 27, —[Special Telegram to Tue Bee. | —Chairman Caldwell of the Wes ern Passenger association received informa- tion late this evening from the committee of the northern transcontinental lines . the Southern Pacific, which has been in session in St. Paul for several days, that General Passenger Agent Lomax of the Union Pacific had withdrawa from the con- ference. The committee was trying to formu- late a tinal proposal as to diversions, differ- entials, ete., which awould be accentable to the lines of the Western Passenygel ation on business -tg, north Puc points. The Canadiap Pacific, the Northern Pa- cific, the Great Northera and the Southern Pacific nad agreed amopg themsolv trafic_and the next.ptep was to secure, if possibie, the cp-operation of Western Passenger association roads and the Union ~ Pacitic. The,jcommittee signified its intention to go,ahead without the | uion Pacific, but at the presént time there scoms to be no hope of reaching terms which the western roads will accept. A meeting of the Western Passengeq association will be called. for this week to discuss. the new dangers which hava come to the front. A renewal of the trangcontinental rate war now seems inevitable. Mr. Lomax of the Union Pacific today seut the following tel gram to Chairman, Caldwell: “*For your in- formation I communicate the following tele- gram today sent reprasentatives of Northorn lines and Southerw Pacific. ‘After a full conference with the receivers it has been decided that in view of tbe complications involved in the receivership we cannot be- come & party to the proposed agreement. As regards the letter from the committe of which I was chairman that will simply have to stand for the Southern Pacific and north- ern lines. The Union Pacific canuot be a party to it.’” “The proposed agreement would probably devrive the Union Pacific of much Puget sound and Portland trafic¢ which it will get by remaining outside, and without this road's co-operation all efforts to settle transcontiuental differences will probably fail. ™ George San Plete Kate War, dy, general agent of the passen- ger department of the Union Pacific at Don- ver, came in Friday night with the ofticials of the Union Pacitic, Denver & Gulf. Mr. Ady was non-committal when asled about Mr. Trumbull’s ability to malke the roads pay. Ve aro not worrying so much over what the Union Pacific will do with the Gulf as to what the Gulf will do with the Union Pacific.” Asked as to the correctness of the rumor that Mr. Trumbull had tendored him the general passenger agency of the Gulf, Mr. Ady said: “Mr. Trambull did ask me to take charge of the road, which I stated 1 would do if it could_be done in_conjunction with the Union Pacitic,but would have to rc ceive consent from headquarters. The mat- tor ran along for somo little time, when M Trumbull stated he would bave to operate the department independencof the Union Pa- cific. As promptlyas I coutd I stated he would have to look elsewhere, which he did. Tne pleasantest_relations are maintained be- tween the Union Pacific and the Gulf at Denver.
