HiniNgiiam, November 27.—[Special.] The miners’ committee met today to con fer with the mine operators. The latter failed to meet them and the committee decided, in view of the fact that their de mands for higher wages for mining had been refused, to order a strike to take effect Monday. At that time 9,000 miners will go out,causing twenty-three furnaces, all the coke ovens and the mines to close. William Scaife, of Illinois, claiming to represent the National Miners’ Union ex ecutive committee, worked up the trouble by having the miners demand 5 cents ad vance. At Coalburg, Ala., a part of the mine caved in, burying A. M. Reed alive and wounding Albert Ross. Reed was dug out in live hours, hut had been crushed to death. AN APPEAR TO IRISHMEN. London, November 27.—Davitt will publish tomorrow an appeal to the Irisn race at home and abroad. He implores the people to rise and show themselves equal to the present emergency, and says if Parnell remains at the head of the parly there can be no hope of saving the cause of Ireland. The Irish party, he says, con tains more than one man who is capable of leading it to victory, and there is suffi cient patriotism in the party to follow a leader chosen from its own ranks by a majority of its members. In conclusion he says whatever decision maybe made the Irish cause is imperishable, and he asks the people to pray God that wisdom and courage may guide those upon whom Ireland’s hopes are centered. A PROMINENT VIRGINIAN GONE. Richmond, Va., November 27 —H. K. Kllyson, secretary and treasurer of the Richmond Dispatch Company, died today after a brief illness.

HIS REPORTED DISCOVERY IN BOSTON A FAKE. New York, November 27.—Detective Adams returned from Boston today and reported to Superintendent Byrnes the result of his investigation in the Charlie Ross ease. The Superintendent saw that Adams had verified certain facts, which made it clear to him that much of the information published in reference to the supposed discovery of Charlie Ross was a i issue of falsehoods. “The young man In prison at Boston,’’ said Byrnes, “is not i ha, lie Ross.’’ Willie Tate, a chum of Cluriie McClirisly, the supposed Charlie Ross, s'vs that many of the statements accorded him are false. He never made them. “I am perfectly satisfied,’’ con tinued Byrnes, “that there is nothing in the case and that the person who gave out the story lied.” ACTION OF THE PEOPLE OF HARRIS COUNTY. Hamilton. Ga., November 27.—The people of Harris county have learned with great regret of the death of Judge James M. .Smith. He was uot only admired, but loved in our county. While we do not wish to seem premature in the matter of tHe election of his successor as Judge of the Chattahoochee circuit, still it has to be done, and ve only desire to have his place filled for the unexpired term by a man who would give satisfaction and sustain the high position that the Chattahoochee Cir cuit. under Judge Smith’s administration, had reached in the judiciary of the State. And we would present for the considera tion of the readers of your paper and mem bers of the present General Assembly the name of our eountyman, Hon. James M. Mobley, as a suitable and fit, person to wear the ermine as Judge Smith’s succes sor. This suggestion is made with out any consultation with Col. Mobley, hut we people in Harris feel that we are entitled to something. We have always been faithful in time of war and peace: have never had a judge, a Governor, a member of Congress, a solicitor-general, or any oilier office in the gift of the people or appointing power outside of our own county. It is not because we have not got the men. and have not had them, capable of filling these different positions, but we attribute it to extreme modesty. Other counties have put out their men and pressed tlieir claims, a right which we con cede them, while Harris county has stood still and asked for nothing, thinking that her neighbors would reward her soon. But we now* feel that silence is not always best; therefore, we ask the Legislature to honor our county, the circuit, the State and themselves by electing James M. Mobley Judge of the Chattahoochee Circuit to fill the unexpired term of James M. Smith. Harris. Highest of all in Leavening Power.— U. S. Gov’t Report, Aug. 17, 1889. Baking Powder ABSOLUTELY pure Mili.kdgevii.i.e, Ga., November 27.— [Special.]—Not in all the history of this historical city, from the moment that the legislative committee pitched their tent at Jarrett Springs and amid drinking and revelry selected a great forest as the spot, for a future prosperous city, up to the present day, lias there be n an event that compared to the corner-stone ceremonies today. Of all that lias occurred in the past to give this city political history, amt of the great days when it was the seat of government and the cradle of revo lution, nothing has brought together such a surging mass of humanity, representing the business, politics, religion and society of the great empire State, as this day has brought to witness tiie beginning of legis lative aid in behalf of the girls of Georgia. THE THOUSANDS PRESENT. An accurate estimate of the crowd is almost impossible, but good judges put the figures all the way from 12,000 to 20,000. THE GRAND PARADE. Promptly at 11:30 o'clock this morning the great parade was formed on Greene street, opposite the Middle Georgia Mili tary and Agricultural College. The pro cession was hea led by a squad of mounted police, followed by the Milledgeville band. Then the Baldwin Blues, with the battal ion colors; Company A and Company B, of ihc Middle Georgia Cadets, about ninety strong; the duliignou Volunteers, tiie Middle Georgia Artillery, with two can non: the Macon Volunteers, who arrived on the 11 o'clock train: the Putnam Rifles, Asylum band, II011. \V.

Then came the members of the Legislature, about 200 strong, dis tinguished educators ot the South, headed by President Peel, of the Mississippi Girls' Industrial school, the directors of the Georgia Industrial College, the board 01 trustees and faculty of the Middle Georgia Military and Agricultural College, the county officials, mem bers of the press, clergy, citizens, band and Masons. The parade was one of the grandest pageants ever witnessed in Georgia, and would have been an honor to any occasion in a city five times as large as this. The head of the procession halted on the west side of the building, and the Governor, with Mr. and Mrs. W. Y.At kinson, the Legislature, Masonic officers, ! headed by Hon. John S. Davidson, and other distinguished guests, were escorted to the great scaffold, where the ceremonies were begun with a beautiful address by Hon. Bob Whitfield. EXERCISES OF THE DAY. Col. Whitfield, eloquent and happy always, was at his best. Major J. Colton Syncs, president of the Middle Georgia College, was master of ceremonies. Hon. John S. Davidson, Grand Master of the Masonic fraternity of Georgia, was then introduced and he began conducting the ceremonies of laying the corner-stone. With impressive and solemn form, the stone was laid to its resting place. The stone having been laid. Mr. Davidson delivered his address. He was followed by Gov. Northern who made a speech that kept the crowd firmly in the grip of his powerful eloquence. Gov. Northen was followed by Miss Julia Flisch of Augusta, who read a m st brilliant and touching paper on the lessons of the day's ceremo nies. Several letters were read from Con gressmen and distinguished statesmen. THE BARBECUE. Then came the dinner, one of the finest spreads ever seen in the country. The tables were a little over 2000 feet long, and covered from end to end with viands and dainties of the choicest and best kinds. There were more than 100 carcasses, rep resenting 10.000 pounds of barbecue, that steamed and fried over the huge pits throughout last nigl.t. To this was added a thousand delicacies, sent in and prepared by the hands of the ladies of this city, who never left their labors until every visitor exclaimed “enough.'' THE TROOPS REVIEWED. After the great crowds had left the tables the Governor's review of the college cadets was witnessed. Lieutenant Colonel J. Colton Lynes was in command of the companies. AFTER DINNER SPEECHES. But the best part of the day’s program were the after-dinner speeches by several of the distinguished guests. The first of these was made by Hon. VV. Y. Atkinson, complimentary of the splendid educational advantages of Milledgeville, and pledging support to every educational institute in 1 he State that had for its aim the. eleva tion of tiie moral and intellectual charac ter of tha boys and girlrq Hon. ( 'lark Howell was then introduced and he caught tiie crowd in an instant, lie spoke in the highest terms of Millidge- ville’s work for the great movement begun by the State, and pledged support to every measure in behalf of the schools of the state. President Mitchell of the Senate, and Hon. R. II. Jackson. ex-I’resident of the Alliance, spoke in tiie same strain urging higher education for all. Then came Hon. Patrick Walsh, in a powerful address of wisdom and logic in behalf of the schools of the State, and es pecially of the Girls' Industrial and Nor mal School. These speeches, in behalf of the girls and hoys of Georgia, who are the hope of the future, closed the exercises of the day, and ended what was termed by many distinguished visitors the GRANDEST DAY IN HER HISTORY. the Legislature and visitors were shown Georgi t Military and They were highly pleased with the institution, which num bers more than 590 stu leuts on its roll. Thus ends the greatest day that Milledgeville has ever seen—a day that will never fade from the memory of her people.

Claflin & Co., of New York, with liabilities of $98,- 171. The schedule of assets is not yet filed. Brooklyn, November 27.—A terrible accident occurred on the foot hall grounds at Eastern Park, in this city, a few min utes after 12 o'clock and before the Yale- Princeion game began. The big free stand on the eastern side of the grounds, furthest from the grand stand, suddenly collapsed, carrying down with it the entire load of human beings. The crash came without any warning whatever, and at the time the long rows of bleachers were closely packed with spectators. It is estinuted that there were more than 2000 people on the struc ture at the time. A scene of indescribable confusion and panic followed the crash, which was heard iu all parts of the grounds. The occupants were mostly men, a great majority of them students from Y ale and Princeton. There were also many women in the crowd. They ail lay in a confused and struggling mass upon tiie ground, many of them completely buried under the wreckage of the planks and joists of which the structure was built. The screams and shrieks and groans which came from the unfortunates were heart rending to hear. Many tainted from the injuries they had received. In an instant there was a general rush for that part ot the field, and a score or more policemen were soon engaged in pulling tin maimed and wounded from the wreck. Others lent their assistance, and within ten minutes the whole place had been cleaned. At first it was feared that some might have been killed, hut this tear proved unfounded. A great many per sons, however, were very se riously hurt, and broken limbs and bruised heads and bodies were numer ous. Many friends of the wounded people had them carried at once out of the grounds and placed in hacks, which took them away before tlieir names could he learned. In this way a great many cases were not reported to the police. Tiie big dressing room under the grand stand was turned into a hospital and surgeons from the Brooklyn hospital had tlieir hands full with patients. Among those who were treated on the grounds and after wards taken away, were: Charles Wil son, of Brooklyn, ankle dislocated: Cadet John Aquillar and I’erin Dalney, of the Military Institute, Peekskill: two young lads, backs badly sprained and bruised; Emory B. Remington, of Brook lyn, (Princeton '93), leg broken: a Yale man, name not learned, suffering from concussion of the spine; two Rutger's col lege students, heads bruised and cut: John Monroe, Princeton, broken ankle: George E. Wvlle, Hotel Normandie, thigh broken: James MeGlone, of Brooklyn, internal in juries: F. S. Keeler, (Columbia '91), broken wrist: A. John Wild, a Yale student, in jured internally and taken out unconscious; S. P. Pear, a Yale student, arm broken: John Caruthers, a Wesleyan student, badly cut on the head: Eldridge (Princeton "94), both legs badly bruised: Curley, another “94” Princeton student, knocked uncon scious, the case deemed very serious: Leon ard, a resident on Fifth avenue, New Y’ork, right leg broken: Ed W. Morgan, a Yale student, leg broken: McKean, a Princeton theological student, compound fracture of the left leg; Bradley, a '92 Princeton student, both legs badly hurt: A. Weil, 320 East 113th street, New Y’ork. fracture of the collar bone; C. Turner, of Troy, leg hurt; II. YY’. Wuller. of Bayonne. X. J., scalp wound; George A. Johnson. Hotel Normandie, concussion of the spine. A lot of boys, a dozen or more, names unknown, who stood on the top row of the bleachers were badly bruised and cut. The only ladies who were hurt were two Brook lyn women, one of whom had her foot crushed and the other her leg bruised. They were first taken to the manager's office near the main entrance and were afterwards taken from the grounds by tlieir friends. Some of those who were, buried beneath the wreckage, and who were taken out unconscious afterwards, recovered and declined to be treated They went on the field again and found other places to view the game. The lowest estimate puts the number of people injured at fif.y, while others place it as high as sixty or more. The stand was evidently in an unsafe con dition, for the broken timbers showed many of them were nearly rottened in two, whiie the whole structure was of the most flimsy affair j imaginable. Wln-n it began to fid up with spectators the joists were heard to crack j and strain, and many who started to find I seats gave it up as a dangerous job. Sev eral persons seated themselves near the entrance of the stand before the accident occurred and warned people not to go up, as it was unsafe. It was reported that bets were made quite freely of five to one that the stand would go down before the game was over. The grea est indignation pre- j vailed among the people on the grounds I against the management of Eastern Park. ! and the blame was all put upon these offi cers. Every one asserted than an exarni- j nation of the structure would have shown that it was utterly insufficient to support ; the crowd which would occupy it.

The electors rightly put a high value upon the character of public men. Gladstone's letter had struck a note in harmony with the feelings of all Liberals. Tlte Irish party.

Parnell had frequent conversations with Healy during the day, but the latter is very reticent and refuses to say anything about the Irish leader's intentions. Parnell appears to be ill buoyant spirits ami splendid health. A noticeable incident occurred in tlie- Hou«e of Commons when Parnell went to record his vote on Labauclieres amendment. In going from his seat Parnell had to pass the Liberal benches, and it was remarked that his late allies studiously ignored him. It is stated that if Parnell remains in the leadership of the Irish parly. Sexton and other Irish members of Parliament will apply for the Chiltern hundreds and offer themselves for re-election in order to test the feelings of the electors. niE steamer went down.

In regard to the increasing powers of tiie local authorities. Balfour said he considered that the original proposals therefor in the hill w tv the best that could he devised. Land purchase in Ire land was not a local qtieition at ail.

Therefore, to leave to communities under the incitement of agi tators, to determine wlmcher i hoy should adopt the remedy, was going to the root of agrarian discontent. [Parneliife laugh ter.] If they w-re to give local control in any form, it ought to be by a plebiscite of the vote payers, enabling them, under the safeguard of the ballot, to vote upon the question of granting a contingent portion of the guarantee fund for each county. Labouchere moved an amendment against ploding the imperial credit for the purchase of land until the country should have given its consent at a general elec- tion. Labouchere’s amendment was re jected by a vote of 298 to 117. Gladstone, •Sir William Virnon Hareourt and Moriey, walke i out before the vote was tak'*n. Parnell and all the Parnellite followers vot 'd with the Government. The bill was then given its first reading amid cheers of the Government supporters. STAND RY PARNELL. Dublin*. November 27.—The Evening Telegraph asks why Parnell, elected unan imously to tiie Irish leadership twenty- ' four hours before, should have voluntarily effaced himself by retiring, ft continues: “If the Irish party, on Gladstone’s de mand. wished to recant, Parnell’s right, to demand a solemn vote of want of confi dence, in which every member must take part, each member assuming respon sibility for his vote before the Irish people, must be conceded. The business is too gigantic and momen tous to permit of the acceptance of a clandestine adjustment as a final settle ment. Whatever is done must be declared openly in the presence of the nation.
