OF STATISTICS AMD LABOR.
I wiiigsit i B &»4 Ieeafrtec late the Wttk.

B»w York Stats Commissioner Peck. In ths
“Ftmrth Annual Report of the Bureau of
Statistics o i Labor.” says:
The year 1880 has witnessed a more pro¬
found and far more extended agitation
among the members of organized labor than
aay fefi previous year in the history of our
omul own MMolas i npd not while been such characterized agitation in by oar the
that Who]] "y startled unwarranted and criminal excesses
with horror the {opuloce of sev-
1 oral of the Western cities, it has neverthe
*■** been earnest and pronounced. With
but vara exceptions, organized labor has
continued in this State, with greater suo
r sm and vigor than ever before, to agi¬
tate, to strike and to boycott during the
past of year, and !**»( will be rememlrered as
one the greatevt importance in the battle
waged between capital and labor, the signal
failures ami succo -boh of which will not be
lost or fail to serve as les ons of value to the
student of social and economic questions.
The subject of apprenticeship is treated at
greet length and in a most exhaustive man¬
ner. in Among discus other ing things the Commissioner
ays, •As the question:
a very prominent feature of the labor
question, It has been fo«nd expedient and
aecrsuuy to look into onr apprenticeship
system—the means at hand of renewing broad and
uerpetnating result is that our lab >r supply. dependent The
foreign skilled we labor. ate largely «)ur supply of native upon
mechanics is daily augmented by the skilled
labor of Europe, ami while this foreign ele¬
ment is not equal to the skilled labor which
is retained in Europe, it is in the ma ! n \ astly
superior to that produced iti our own country.
Whether unrestricted emigration lie or
be not a national blessing may be disputed,
but a visit to tho workshops of the State will
demonstrate the truthfuluessof the statement
that the large majority of our tradesmen
and mechanics are foreigners. Indeed, in
many trade and industrial establishments
(hero is not a single American at work.
Nearly bility in all the positions of trust and responsi¬
the hands median! a 1 derailments are in
of foreign-born workers, aud most
of the l*>ys and young men learning trades
are either foreign born or the sons of
is foreign-born workers. Aud the opinion
cepted, now that very generally expressed aud ao»
most of tho labor troubles of the
hut few years have been precipitated, not
by and whole trades, but by sections of them,
that these sections wero largely con¬
trolled by foreigners, or natives who had
from association imbibed foreign ideas on
the tabor question.”
Tha Commissioner argues In favor of man¬
ual training as a means of keeping up the
supply coming of trained tabor and preventing the
man from becoming tne slave of the
machine.
The conclusion at which tho Commissioner
arrives in regard to “Shorter Hours of La¬
bor” are thus summed up:—‘ As predicted in
tho last report of this bureau, a very
general movement was made on the first
day of May last looking to the reduction
of the hours of labor from ten to eight per
day. Brooklyn Tho organisations of New York and
seemed to have acted more in con
cert than those of other cities in the States,
and were by for more successful,

A FIGHT WITH ROBBERS.
Cars l<onded Willi Arms nnd Ammunition
Broken Open nnd Killed.
Five masked robbers boarded a Pan
Handle freight train near Sheridan Sta¬
tion, just at the outskirts of Pittsburg,
Friday tho night, but they were detected in
moving aefc train, of throwing nnd freight desperate from the
in a fight
which ensued, Fireman Curley was shot
through the right thigh, and a brakeman
was knocked senseless with a stone. The
train men then gave up the tight to at¬
tend to the injured men, and the thieves
escaped. It
is thought the robbers secreted them
•elves in tho cars before the train left
this city, and hs soon as they were be¬
yond the city limits forced the doors and
threw off a number of boxes of guns and
ammunition. It is thought the men got
away with sonic of the arms.
Several theories have been advanced as
ed to why cars were selected tuat were load¬
with arms. It is thought by some
persons that the gang nny have been An¬
archists, and that they were trying to se¬
cure rifles ami ammunition for future
the use. They seem to have known what
contents of the ears were, as both o(
the cartt broken open contained arms.
AUGUST HPIES’S BRIDE.
Miss Nina Clark YanZanfft, of Chicago,

DUTCH TO BETTER IN FLORIDA.
Negotiations were completed at Jack
sonville by which a syndicate of Dutch
hankers In Amsterdam, Holland, acquired
from the 1 lorida Laud Mortgage compa¬
ny, limited, a vast body of timber land in
west Florida. The purchase embraces a
solid area of nearly nine hundred square
miles largest heavily single timbered. This is the
transaction made in the
state since the great Disston sale in 1881.
Tho syndicate proposes to form a great
land and colonization company, building
a railroad into the purchase and coloniz¬
ing from Holland.

Por tome weeks past Captain Conner,
who ia in charge of the convict camp lo¬
cated at Rising Pawn, Ga., has suspected
that two convicts named Jim Holt and
William Jackson were planning an escape.
He succeeded in getting satisfactory Evi¬
dence that Holt was the leader, and de¬
cided to punish him. * In attempting to
do this Conner was stabbed in theleft
shoulder. With a view to disabling
him Holt, twice, Captain but Conner merely thereupon grazed shot at

The friends of Holt who were in the

fused to come, saying he would die first.
Late in the evening guards were stationed
at the door, and Captain Conner, accom¬
panied by two trusties, entered to remove
Jackson.
Jackson resisted, using a knife, and
several of the convicts taking sides with
him, the hurled bottles and other missils at
the guards and trusties. At this stage
excitement became intense, and oue
of the guards seeing Jackson furiously
brandishing his of knife, shot at him with
the intention disabling him, but the
ball hitting his arm, severed an artery,
from which he died. This had the effect
of subduing the others. No blame is at¬
tached to the act of the guard; and no
further trouble is apprehended.
COUNTERFEITER ARRESTED.
Chnttnnoogn Detective* Capture a Noto¬
rious Character.
A special from Chattanooga, says: A
detective lias discovered oue of the most
extensive counterfeiting establishments
yet broken up in the South. For several
weeks an almost perfect counterfeit coin
has been circulated in the city, and all at¬
tempts to trace it up proved fruitless.
Saturday an old man was seen to enter a
store and make a trifling purchase, re¬
ceiving departure ninety cents in change. On his
it was ascertained that the coin
he left was counterfeit The detectives
were notified and at once put him under
surveillance. Saturday night he was ur
lestcd and $66 in counterfeit found on
his person. He proved to be Mullins,
one of the most notorious counterfeiters
in America. He was arrested two years
ago at Fort Scott, Arkansas, and escaped
by turning Stale's evidence. It was as¬
certained that the den is in the heart of
the city and has been conducted us an
electro-plating in tho hanJs establishment. It is now
of the police, and three
other urrests have been made. It is
thought that thousands of dollars have
been issued from these. The counterfeit
is nearly perfect.
THE RIDE TO DEATH.
Poor Tramps Burned to Death In a becked
Freight Car.
As a special freight train of nineteen
cars, loaded with cotton was pulling into
Paducah, Ky., on the line of the Chesa
peak, Ohio and Southern railroad Mon¬
day, one of tho cars was discovered to he
on fire. It had been taken on and locked
at Memphis, being transferred from the
Louisville, New Orleaus and Texa* rail
road at that point. The engineer backed
on the side track and the crew endeav¬
ored to extinguish tho flames with hose
attachments. All they succeeded in doing,
however, was to prevent the fire from
Spreading to other cars. While removing
the debris of the burned car, four dead
bodies, charred beyond recognition, were
discovered. They are supposed to have
been tramps. Whether white or black it
is impossible to say. The car was locked
at tered Memphis, but the men must have en¬
to their horrible fate through a
window in the end, which could have
been opened from the outside.
TROUBLE AT NIAGARA.
A Larjre Mass of Kook Falls os tho Cana¬
dian Hide.
Over 223,000 Quebec yards of lime¬
stone and slate rock of the bank of Nia¬
gara river, near Horseshoe falls, on the
Canada side, fell out Thursday. |i The
mass fell with a tremendous crash, which
was heard nnd felt for miles around. The
break has considerably changed the ap¬
pearance of the bank, and now a dark
chasm can be seen behind the falls from
the bank above. The mass of rock which
fell was sixty feet long and one hundred
and seventy feet deep. Its fall from the
main rock has left a perpendicular wall.
The tremendous weight of the ice
which has accumulated during the past
three weeks, with steady frosty weather
and low water was the cause of the
broak.

THE STRIKE AT OXMOOK, /’ i A,
The Superintendent of the Eureka fur¬
naces hundred at Oxmoor, Alabama, has secured
one and fifty men who do not
tl la’long to the Knights of Labor, and put
cm to work in place of the strikers.
The strikers, who are Knights of Labor,
notified the Superintendent that the scabs
would not be allowed to work. The
Sheriff was notified of the impending
truuble, and put four deputies at ths
made iurnaces, and so far the strikers have
no effort to iuterfere with the new
men.
CAUGHT IN 1 CLOCK.
a Terrible Experience la a Church StMple.
Have you ever been at St. Paul’s? I
mean the great Cathedral of London.
If you have you doubtless know the
dome. You have looked down perhaps
from its dizzy height, on the people
walking who on the pavement below, and
seem in the far distance beneath
you, like black ants crawling about.
When I was comparatively a young
man—I am not an old man, even yet,
though London, my and hair is of so the gray—I first objects went that to

I visited was Bt. Paul’s. 1 had lead of
it so often as a child. I had been told
so frequently it was Wren’s masterpiece;
every Englishman assured me that it
had no rival, except, perhaps, St. Peter's
at Rome, and even of that there was a
doubt, that I was eager to see it. Ac¬
cordingly taking an omnibus the at Charing
by Cross, the I memorable went along Temple Strand, Bar, passing
until a

pilgrimage first, I was close at hand.
On At confess, I was disappointed.
western a nearer facade approach hid I found that the
the dome almost en¬
tirely. The interior, too, was cold and
gray, without a bit of warm color. The
aspect chilled me I did not remain
long in consequence in the auditorium,
if it may be so called. I did not care to
linger and read the epitaphs on the
monuments ascended to the departed heroes. I at
once stairs until I reached
the great clock, and there, attracted by
the immense wheels that move the
heavy hands around the clock-face, I
took my stand.
Just below the centre of the great
dial-plate, and to the right of the pivot
upon which the hands revolve, is a hole
about fourteen inches square, possibly,
somewhat more; and this hole is usually
left open to admit of repairs to the
clock as needed. A strange fascination
took possession of me to look through
this hole, more than two hundred feet
above Jhe street, to get a panoramic
view of bustiing London below. I
thrust my head, therefore, through the
hole, without further thought. What a
spectacle rewarded me! For miles and
miles in every direction, the city and
the country about lay spread before 11)6
as in a map. I saw the Thames in the
rays of the mid-day sun, looking lik e a
silver thread; I saw the many bridges;
down piles on piles of fine edifices, I looked
upon the vast parks, whose wide
carriage-roads seemed like narrow paths.
So busy was I with the scenes around
me, that I took no note of time; all ray
attention was engrossed by the view
spread out around me and beneath me.
since Nearly an hour had passed unheeded
I took my position, and as one ob¬
ject of interest after another met my
gaze, I was still unsatisfied. At length
something pressed upon my neck. For
an instant 1 was ignorant of the cause,
and my hands being on the inside of the
orifice, 1 could not raise them then to
clear away any obstruction.
The truth, the horrible truth, burst on
me all at once. Judge of my surprise
and agony, when I thought, for the first
time of the inevitable passage of the
ponderous hands! Slowly and steadily,
but firmly, the great minute hand was
making its regular trip around the dial
plate; against and it was neck. that which was press¬
ing my
I felt its cold edge, but it was too late
to extricate myself, too la e to turn my
head! I shouted aloud for help. But
my feeble voice could not reach the
street below, and a moment’s reflection
showed me that, ev n if it could, it
must take longer than three minutes to
reach me at that height, and before that
three minutes had become six, my head
would, doubtless, fall among the people
on the sidewalk!
Oh! dreadful moments! The great
hand pressed more heavily every sound.
With every tick of the mighty pen

my fast lessening life As my throat
rested on the lower edge of the hole, l
had the greatest ditfioulty in breathing.
head, Heavy drops of moisture oozed from my
at every pore. My eyes seemed
starting from their sockets!
In these brief moments I thought of
home, of my mother, of my early days.
Incidents, long ago occurring and for¬
gotten, of throng time I to my mind. In that
space seemed to live years.
Ask the victim to the Spanish garote,
as the executioneer, having fastened the
strap around the neck, begins to turn
the fatal screw behind; slowly at first,
but surely, then suddenly, till the head
falls, as the neck refuses longer to hold
it in place. Ask that victim how many
years he is living over again, as that
dread screw is turning?
I closed my eyes, uttered a feeble
prayer, and became insensible.
But I live to tell the tale! Yes, at
the last moment, when life was barely
assured and death was imminent, the
clock, sexton, coining to oil the works of the

and with ready presence of mind,
•topped the pendulum.
But only just in time. Then with a
lever attached to the cogs of the great
wheel, he pried back the hand and set
me free.
I lived, but was thoroughly exhausted.
My nerves were unstrung, A brain
fever followed, and death again seemed
beckoning me away. But my strong
constitution enabled me to rally, and
after four weeks’ confinement at my
hotel, I rose once again a well man.
But my hair, from a dark brown, had
become gray. Do you think, after this,
I can ever forget the clock of St.
Paul’s.

by a clearing of many acres in extent,
from which he has e&rned a living for
his wife and nine children—s^ven sons
and two daughters. only All is these children and only

through rugged a virtual wilderness, the wild
and country being interspersed
here and there with small settlements.
Case himseT is a splendid specimen of
manhood. He is sixty-seven years old,
but straight as an giant. arrow, brave as a lion
and strong as a He is a dead shot
with the rifle, and his cabin is stored
with the skins of bears and deer which
have fallen before his unerring aim. In
the war with Mexico he led a company
and in the war of the rebellion he be¬
gan as a private and ended as a captain
on the side of the Union. After hos¬
tilities ceased he returned to his cabiD,
content to end his life in isolation and
solitude.
A strange fatality has attended hi9
children. Two of his hoys were killed
by guerillas during the war. In 1880 the
revenue officers raided a “moonshine”
distillery in the Boston Mountains. The
“moonshiners,” though surprised, show¬
ed fight, and several were wounded,
among them two of the ( ase boys. They
succeeded in hiding in the underbrush
and thus escaped capture. One died
from the effects of the wound five
months after; the other died in Texas
from the same cause a year later. In
1884, in a fight on Caif Creek, another
of the boys was fatally stabbed, dying
in a few days. To-day the father, who
is in this place with cattle, received
word from Colorado City, Tex., that the
son who accompanied his ill-fated
brother to the State named had been
shot and killed in a quarrel with a man
on a ranch sixty miles beyond the town.
Thus six have perished by violent means.
The only surviving son is living quietly

Shoes in the Confederacy.
The Charleston (S. C ) Neict, alluding
to Mr. David Dodge's article in the At¬
lantic Moivhhj in relation to the alleged
expedients resorted Confederacy to by the people of
the Southern to meet the
necessities imposed upon them by the
enfor ement of the blockade during the
war, and especially the assertion re¬
specting the use of wooden bottoms for
shoes, says: “The one fact that is con¬
tained in the whole mass of rubbish, so
far as we can learn, is that a few wood¬
en-bottom shoes were made aud worn
iu some parts of the South iu the latter
part of the war, when they were regard¬
ed with as much curiosity as they would
be regarded now. It is true, indeed,
that wood had long been worn by the
slaves and by some of he white people,
in their shoes, before the war, but the
foot coverings of the this description were
manufactured at North; were bought
for ‘all leather;’ and the woodwork,
apart from the pegs, consisted in ex¬
ceedingly thin shavings, whieh were
deftly concealed in the soles, and wero
made to take the place of the paste¬
board filling that is sometimes used for
the same purpose at the present day.
The sabots, which Mr. Dodge describes
so minutely, we never heard of before,
and tho fact that even a few wooden
soles were made and worn at the time
he specifies will be news to the vast ma¬
jority of the people whom he represents
us having brought them into general
u-c A Confederate officer, who is now
living iu Massachusetts, and who has
read Mr. Dodge’s testimony, writes to
us to say that lie ‘served under General
Price in Missouri, with Van Dorn m
Arkansas, with Beauregard and Bragg
in the West, with Johnston in Georgia,
and with Hood to the end, and never
saw anything of the kind which Mr.
Dodge describes, Our observation is
entirely in accord with that of our cor¬
respondent, and we are, therefore, com¬
pelled to believe that Mr. Dodge has
either drawn on his imagination for his
facts or has fallen into the not infrequent
error of generalizing his own individual
experience. ’

struggle, and yet can't even go to the
post-office without piling on all his
clothing, and then kicking about the
