He swore to the brutal treat meat of convicts at the Old Town camp by W. E. Smith, the whipping boss. It was discovered after an examination of the records in the penitentiary office that Per due was discharged April 13, 1885, and that Smith was appointed whipping boss ten days afterwards, which rather upsets his testimony. The investigation was closed temporarily because it was found (hat it would im neces sary to have a stenographer and there is no appropriation to pay him. There was a stenographic report of Senator Brown’s testimony paid for by Chairman Huff. The committee do not fool able to liear this ex pense and think it should lie met by the State. The Chairman of the Penitentiary Committee of the House will ask for an ap propriation of $250 to pay a stenographer. LYNCHERS AFTER HOLMAN.

Judge Marshall Clark heard to-day tho application of the Mutual Reserve Fund As sociation of New York, to compel the Comptroller to issue a license to the com pany to do business, claiming to be a benev olent association and therefore exempt from luakiug the returns required of insurance companies. The Attorney General repre sented the State. Tho court withheld its decision. AN UNPROVOKED ASSAULT.

Pittsburg, July B.—A Uniontown, Pa., special says: Tho coke strike lias not yet been declared off, but a general resump tion is now regarded as only a question of a few days. The miners’ association, repre senting nearly 3 INK) of the strikers, hold a meeting at Everson, Pa., to-day nnd decided to return to work at tho old wages if the operators would agree to n sliding scale. Tlio reply of the operators to this was for the men to return to work first and the sliding scale would lie considered after wards. The action of the convention has weakened the cause of the strikers, nnd a big break isexpeetodat any time. Notices were po-ted throughout the region to-day order ing the men to return to work or vacate the company houses. It is thought this will have the effect of frightening the Hungarians, and that they will go back rather than U> evicted. The works in operation received several additions to their working forces to day, and others have signified their inten tion of resuming to-morrow. Switchmen Strike. Lincoln, Neb.. July B.—The switchmen, numbering seventy-five men, in the Bur lington ami Missouri yards are on a strike.

Efforts Being Made to Obtain a Com mutation of Sentence. Beaufort, S. C., July S.—Griffin Dela glo, the negro man, who about a year ago killed another negro man on the steamer David Clark, from Savannah, has been re prieved until Aug. 19. To-day was the day on which he was sentenced to be hanged, but about two weeks ago Gov. Richardson granted him a reprieve. The crime was committed on the return of a negro excur sion from Savannah to Beaufort, and while in a partly inebriated condition Delagle and the other negro entered into some dispute, which resulted In Delagle killing the man. The jioople of Beaufort are very much oppsed to having Delagle liung here, as the parties all belong to Sa vannah, and the deed happened in Carolina waters but a very short distance from the Georgia waters. They arc trying to make his punishment life imprisonment instead of capital. It is also rumored that the citizens of this place are trying to get up a petition for his pardon, but that will hardly be ac complished, and doubtless next month Del agle will be hung unless his fortune is re versed.

Portland, Ore., July 8. —There is noth ing to confirm the rumor that the Chinese miners on Snake river have lieen murdered.
