A Nashville special^ of Monday says; It is generally conceded that there will possibly be further trouble in tbe mining districts in May. It is an open se¬ cret that a general strike is in prepara¬ tion to take effect May 1st, and state ani civil military authorities are preparing for another attack on the convicts work¬ ed in mines. Positions have been and are built being s’rengthcned, fortifications and everything is being put in readiness for an attack. The legislature has passed a bill authorizing the gov¬ ernor to use the full force of the state to suppress disorders. A Jackson, Miss., dispatch of Saturday says: The police authorities have at last succeeded iu running to eanh the author of many anonymous letters which had caused the greatest excitement in the city. William Redwood, a medical stu¬ dent who was jailed for burglary, re¬ ceived several letters through the mail which were scrutinized by tnc police be¬ fore delivery to him. They were signed with a red star and written us though they of Redwood’s. came from a gang of confederates of the They detailed the works araDg, repeating particulars of robberies and killing bf iXhers, which had been planned. It has developed that Redwood himself was the author of the letters.

A special of Tuesday from Los Angles, Cal., says: Since last Tuesday there have been between forty and fifty earth¬ quake shocks in the i’ico canon, neai New Hall. The Pico canon is in the San Fernando mountains and is the cen¬ ter of the oil region. L ist Tuesday, a severe earthquake, which was felt all over southern California, shook tho houses in the Pico canon and very badly frightened the inhabitants.

NOTHING BOT JUDGMENTS Left for Ryan’s Creditors After the SI& Xt*™..- He fragment of fortune up* the his hands. The a verdict rendered remaining in in this case a few days ago r.Gttled it, as it wiil not be carried to the supreme court cital^to ^sho\v k tho^av * the ^mor^ey^L^j gone in this case since it opened Al- though Ryan’s books, after his business went into the hands of a receiver, show- ed that he owed about $95O,O00. Re- CCiVer in Kingsbury realize! only $306,000 money. of’that Out amount the mortgage of Claflin <9t Co^affiounting tt> $115,000 was settled,leaving hands. $191,000 in the receivers Of this amount Mr. Kingsberry paid out for clerks and taxs, while winding up the business, about $15,000, which left $176,000, which the creditors hoped they would get. On the 14th of June last a decree was taken in court to settle the balance of the mortgages amounting to $350,000 tor half the fund in court, $88,000. Thus by one stroke the mortgate holders saw $468,000 their of their money sink beyond reach and beyond redemption. That left $88,000 in R ceiVer Kihgsbehf *8 hands. By order of the Peeples court he fdi: paid out $5, - 500 to Auditor bis SerViCe id the OaSe, $1,800 to the stenographer, Mr. F. Cooledge, $3,000 to Clerk Tanuer for court costs, $1,700 for city and county taxes, $1,090 $13,000 for printing the tfafidtls re¬ ports, to himself for his services as receiver, $15,000 for Rosser Hied & Carter and other ass cifttes Who the bill for the receiver, and $12,000 for Calhoun, King & Spaulding, the receiver’s attor¬ neys, and their associates. These various $36,000 sums amounted in to $52,000, which left Receiver Kingsberry’s hands. Of this amount about $26,500 is in the Gate City National bank, and as yet can¬ not be reached. This leaves $9,500 out¬ side tho bank,which is being distributed among the creditors, who had claimed goods. When Ryan failed claims were filed for $180,000 worth of goods, which were reduced afterwards to $120,000. On ac¬ count of these goods having Ryan’s name stamped up n them, and on account of their being shop worn, 65 per cent, of their value was ordered set aside, which was $78,000. These creditors represented by the $78,000 will get all the money that is left, viz: tho $9,500 in the receiver’s hands and the $26,500, in the Gate City bank. The other credi¬ tors, whose claims amount to $280,000, will get .nothing but jud/reroenta against Ryan. NEW WING OF DEMOCRACY To he Organized in South Carolina, Text of the Call. Meetings were held all over the state of South Carolina Tuesday for the organ¬ ization of another wing of the democratic party in the state. The address calling for the organization of the Industrial and Wage Workers’ D. mocratic League, says: We dcc’are our principles to be embodied in tbe simple but sound democratic doctrine of “equal rights to all, special privileges to none,” and our purpose to repeal and to oppose all legislation inconsistent therewith. We ac¬ knowledge agriculture to be the master wheel of industrial mechanism, but declare that in the enactment aud education of just and whole¬ some laws it is essential to good order that the quality the and harm quantity working of the product depend upon .nious of ihe whole ma¬ chine, and that upon no indn try more than agricultural wi;l fall the injurious effects of a departure interest from this just principle. We believe the of capital and labor to be the Bame and we assert that a blow aimed at one will fall upon both, and that legislation directed “against” eith r will reflect upon the people of the whole state. We condemn the vicious class c f legislation attempted and enacted by tbe legislature at its recent session and endorsed and approved by tbe governor of this state, tho pernicious effects of which will bo put to hazard all industries the dependent volume upon of corporative capital, to lessen currency, to increase the cost of credit and to render uncertain aud precarious the occupation of all wage-workers within the state. We denounce the inc insistency of the so-called 1 reform” pariy which proclaiming salaries too large, omits to reduce them. De- c'anng taxei too high monopoly increase< them; profes- s ng opposition to conspires to make the legislates state the a monopoly; itself preaching prohibition state iu;o a rum-seller. The the new organiz .tion is aimed direct¬ ly at reform or Tillmanite wing of the party. It was brought into existence by the passage of laws at the last session of the general assemb'y in obedience to the governor’s recommendations calcu¬ lated to oppress the railroads, banks, factories and in fact, all industries. The already membership of the league, it is said, is very large and it proposes to play an important part in the next elec¬ tion. A state convention has been call¬ ed for the 19th instant. POLES PROTEST Against the Extradition Treaty B&* tween Uncle Sam and Russia. A meeting of the Polish Society of London was held Wednesday at which the proposed extradition treaty between Russia and the United S ates was discuss¬ ed in all its bearings with much heat and vehemency. Very heated arguments were indulged against the reported se¬ cret decision of the American senate to rurrender, at the request of the czar, any Russian refugees charged with attempt¬ ing to take the life of any members of the imperial family. The meeting finally adopted resolu- tiona declaring that while disavowing aR tions, y sympathy with assassins or assas3ina- it solemnly protested against this clause of the treaty, which, it was de¬ cl*red, was simply a proposal to deprive Russians of an asylum in the United States. The resolutions also declared that the Poles in London should appeal to the American nation and petition President Cleveland to only sanction a treaty that will secure to Russian refugees the pro- tection of the American flag. - lT ^ claimed by the Cleveland (Ohio) Leader that by the annexation of the subur- ban towns of vVest Cievelani and Brooklyn iQ the late election, the city o£ Cleveland vi n make it the largest States/ city in Ohio and tho uinth in the United I TELEGRAPHIC GLEANINGS. i The News a tie World COM Mo Pitty ami Pointed Fammki Interesting and Instructive to All Classes of Readers.

The session was understood t * be chiefly for the purpose of hearing John M. Bowers’ opinion on ing the legality of the scheme for the build¬ of the underground road, proposed by R. T. Wilson & Co., the bankers. On Saturday Inst they proposed to raise $15,000,000 of private capit.l and have the city lend its credit for $35,000,000 additional capital, and then build the road at their estimated cost of $50,000,- 000 , A cable dispatch of Monday from Dub¬ lin, Ireland, says: Baron Houghton, Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, has issued an order limiting the importation of arms and ammunition to Ireland. Arms aud ammunition must be imported only at certain ports, and all consignees must, previous to consignment, obtain a per¬ mit for importation from the cu tom offi¬ cers, giving the particulars of the arms consigned. The customs officials are au¬ thorize 1 to open packages suspected of containing arms or ammunition imported contrary to order. Cable dispatches of Monday from Mos¬ cow, Russia, sTate that the famine in the European part of the government of Perm is worse than ever before. The poor are dying by hundreds. In the smaller villages tbe people have ceased trying to bury all the bodies. Relatives of the dead are often too weak to pro¬ vide burial for their dead and so leave tbe bodies lying on the roofs of houses. It is estimated that 252,000,000 pounds of grain is required to alleviate the dis¬ tress and keep the peasants in food until the Dext harvest. A COAL MINE HORROR. Hundreds of Men Entombed and Great Loss of Life. A London cablegram of Tuesday says: A spark from an engine ignited a gas coal pit near Pont-y-Pridd, Wales, and caused the gas to explode. A large num¬ ber of miners were at work at the time, and the explosion caused terrible havoc. Three hundred miners are entombed iu the mine. The engine house is in flames and there is the greatest fear that hun¬ dreds may have perished. The rescuers who went down were driven back with¬ out being able to bring more than five of the dead and the fate of the other miners is in doubt. The most agonizing scenes are witnessed and throngs of men,women and children—relatives of those below— are crowded about the mouth of the coal pit. WOKK OF FESCUE. At the entrance of the shaft, a rescu¬ ing party was formed by tbe pit survey¬ or. The party got ns far as the landing at the seam where the fire started but were driven back almost immediately by the dense smoke issuing from the seam. The surveyor took his men back to the surface. After a half hour’s rest they went down again and forced their way ten yards into the workings. They found four dead which they brought back with them. Attempt to go further into tbe workings were vain, as the woodworks were burping and large masses of ruins were falling incessantly from the roof. One of tbe rescuing party who ventured too far was killed, _ A . 311 lir M Meager particulars , received . , Tues- _ were day of a cyclone at Page City Mo. hree people were killed and a large number in- jured.

THE NATION’S HEALTH Considered at a Meeting of Represent¬ atives of State Boards. Representatives of tbe various state boards of health held a meeting in New York city, Wednesday, and considered various questions that are likely to be of some importance in Ctse of any epidemic in cholera this summer. The meeting was presided over by the Hon. T. J. Conference McCorna ck, president Boards of tbe National of State of Health. Among tho representatives present were Dr. Jerome Cochran, of Mobile, Ala.; Dr. Baker, Dr. W. Frank Wells and Dr. II. R. Willis, of Michigan; Dr. F. W. Reilly and Dr. J. II. Rauch, of Illinois; L)r.

The meeting was called to consider the efficiency of the vari¬ ous seaboard quarantine stations and their ability to cope with the dis¬ ease, iu case of an epidemic, this sum¬ mer. The Italian Government has encountered serious opposition in it3 effort! to capture the brigands of that country. The outlaws are on excellent terms with the poorer classes of the districts which they infest, and as these latter are dependent for the on the brigands in life some measure shelter them when neqee* the ■arias of they jpridiers make their raids.
