Homestead, Pa.. Nor. 13.—No.
July have flying bullets been bo
fill this afternoon. Inside of twenty '
minutes over fifty ebots were fired nn.1
Forty-fourth avenue was in n wild
statu of panic and disorder. Humors
are pluatiful of persons being wounded
but the only ones seriously hurt up-
pareoitiy arc threo strikers, named Me-
l-’uilden. Jones and Prichard. They
havo all flesh wounds. Two negroes
were also badly beaten.
The fight started on Fourth avenue
about d:3U o'clock. Two colored men,
wi.o worg in ths mill, were walking
toward the mill when a suriker sa.d
something to them. They replied and
the striker knockud one of them down.
With the same extraordinary sudden*
ness which always characterizes Home
stead. so far ss gathering of crowds is
concerned, about -U persons, including
ct.ddr-*:i and women, sent ssMeum.cd
iu a lew minutes. Both negroes fought
hard, Lut stones began to Uy and the
limn were besting luem, vvnen one of
tbe negroes drew a revolver and opened
tire. By this time there were fully
SOU persons on tne streets and bullets
whistling over itheir heads started a
panic. Three men knocked down the
second negro and when he arose he had
two revolvers iu his bands. He started
to run, (mooting wildly backward as
ho did so.
While tbe negroes were running men
would hurl stones at them. When the
colored men reached their house they ran
in and barred the door. Lu a minute tue
house wss surrounded by an a.furjuted
crowd, who goon .tore down He fence
and ■battered eveff window'with stones.
When deputies sud borough nflicers ar
rived some persons were suggesting that!
they burn the bouse. «ud some one be-
gan to yell “let's iynr.li the nigger Muck
sheep.” Ths was taken up and crie»
of ‘-lung ’em.” were beard uu all sides.
Officers went in to arrest thecolored
in eu, and they found them huddled in
one room, terrified un.l expect.ng to
be killed. One man. however, said he
was not afraid, and that be would be
the first to leave. As ho was tnlrru out
woman hit him with a frying ran,
catting his heed.
It is said a boy received a flesh wound
In the leg, but his narno isun known.
By the time the colored men had reach
ed the city farm lane other y.lored men
came along, nd they, too. were assaulted.
They all drew guns anil ran down Fifth
avenue in the direction ef McClure
street, near where their lodging house
ia situated. Some one hurled a brick
which bit Washington Paul on the bead.
He oneued fire and so did tbe others.
In a minute the air tvus full of bullets,
and in front of the colored men there
was a terrified crowd rushing into
houses for shelter or dodging up alleys.
A woman, too frightened to run, stood
on the street and ns they passed one of
the nou-union men shot at her three
times, one bullet passing through her
shawl, which she had thrown over h-r
beau, two bullets went through win
dows of residences, sad one buried it
self in a widow sill on the second story
frsme house occupied by the Coulter
family, who were soaking out at the
time.
Tbn deputy tried in Tain to keep the
crowd away ttVIo they look the man
to tbe lock-up. But he waa bit sarertl
times Stones wpre also hurled, and
Deputy Montgomery was struck. The
oflicern then drew their revolvers and
announced that if any more stones w-xe
thrown they would have to open fire.
A Slav threw a rook, which crash. ,1
through A widow aircay half shattered,
lie was arrested, but tho authorities
seemed powerless, for by this Cme over
2,000 persons had gathered. Several
other oolored moa were beaten on the
way to tho lockup.

Seattle. Nor. 13.—There were a num
ber of large mass meetings and tonh-
light parades held throughout this state
last night in ratification of the election
of ClevKsnd and Stevenson. Seattle
bos not yst decided when she will ratify,
bnt proposes a grand affair when it does
come off.
A peculiar proposition has been ad
vanced by some of tbe hotel keepers
with a Strong eye to business and do
political consistency, that the Democrnta
allow their ratification to be divided in
to a glorification over the election of
McGraw, Kepuhllcao, for governor, and
that political dubs all over tbe state of
both parties be invited here to celebrati
on a given day. It will be no surprise
in view of tbs manner in which the
Democrats managed the campaign and
lost this state if they should accept the
proposition

New York, Not. 13.—Tom L. John
son, who wus elected congressman of
tbe Twenty-first Ohio district, was ln

•Time there is any donbt an to the

of offiolal Demo-
igorous and ag
gressive fight Ohio should have given
air. Cleveland 20,000 majority. The
Democratic gain in the city of Cleve
land this years is onc-lifth of the entire
gain in (he state. This, in my opinion,
is due to the uctive and radical dis

Waihlngton, Nov. 13.—The Post to
day publishes an article to the clfcct
that Iran I’etroff, special agent of the
statu department, bud been detected in
tbn act of furnishing false information
to this government In relation to the
scaling Industry of Alaska, which has
been embodied in tbe preparation of
tho Behring sea's case for arbitration.
Continuing tho article says:
“When the state department began
some months ago preparing tho Behring
sea case for arbitration, it became nec
essary to secure tbe assistance of all
tho experts on the Alaska sailing ques
tions. Whilo investigating the litera
ture on the resource!-of Alaska the de
partment encountered the name of Ivon
Pctroff more frequently than that of any
other author. Upon inquiry for him
be Jig iusututed ho was fuuud to be a
special agent of tbe census bureau. It was
also learned that he had taken the cen
sus ot Alaska for the United States
government In 1880 and lSflO, uud had
written a monograph issued by tbe bu
reau of statistics of tbe treasury de-
partmen on Alaska, ia addition to
tbit, be bad also assisted Hubert Howe
Bancroft in the preparation of the lat
ter's history ef the territory. It was
quite evident to tbe state department,
tjeruforv. that vius bitnerto trusted
ofiioial would be ef valuable tutiititiice
in the preparation of the Behring sea
case, l'ctrolf, therefore, was summoned
from the census bureau to tne state de
partment. He was intrusted with ex-
uiiunujon into a-nd the compilation
of certain facts pertaining to the seal
ing industry. It was not necssssry for
him to visit Alaska, and his work was
done in this city.
borne ume imer he had submitted it
to the dep.u-.Tcut, *,ae of the gorern-
maot's M ru-yi, whit- examining d.,ta,
discovered an error, i ■ - r in-- ligai.w.
snowed that nearly ihe retire laTorniAt.oti
furuwned by Pairoff bad been fiojsfied.
and iu a manner tb.u left no doutre <7
tbe willful falsification *to deceive. This
d.soovery astounded she state officials.
The Information had already been in-
corpora ted in the case of this govern
ment ns sent to London, and formed part
of tbe arch upon which tbe United Sun-s
claim rested, although it was not the
key sttone by any manner of means. Tbe
British government was at once notified
that the United Suites bail been led in
to errors of statement, and was inform
ed that tbe correction could be made when
tbe counter case, as supplementary pa
pers are termed, was submitted.
Tbe dlsoovenr created cousideraMo ex
citement in official circles. The superin
tendent of tbe census has been in con
ference with the president, secretary of
state, and the secretary of the .nterior,
regarding his faithless employe. The
question has naturaily orison, if Pctroff's
work baa been falsified in one instance,
are not bis census figures also unrelia
ble? This .s ui inquiry that can only TTe
answered by a tedious, perhaps a weary
investigation. Carious enough, there is
no law on the statute .books to meet
snob a case as this. I’etroff will simply
lose bis government position with the
know lodge that never aga.n can be re
enter political life. Pctroff is a Ku-sian
by blrtb, who moved to Alaska when
that country was a Hus si an province, lie
lived tliere forty year*, lie i« now GO

turous apir.t all hia life. He took the con
sul of Alaska- Id 18S0. It w&* upon the
recommendation of Gen. Francis Walker
that he was selected to fumdah Alaskan
statistics for the census, which has just
been completed.”
Officials of the af-ate department and
of tbe Interior department, when shown
the article this evening, affirmed Ira cor
rectness, but dock nod to »ay anything
further.

a Democrat, htul strong faith In llio

And, to say nothing of the potwibilliy of
a more serous Lie. the present large
profits of these institutions can hardly
(all to be sooner or later reduced. Dur
ing recent large operations in these spec-
.aides, considerable amounts hare been
shifted upon a dais of sm.ri! holders,
which make* them now the more exposed
to the attacks of the "bears.” The coat
•tocks have also suffered but not to tbe
extent <>f the Industrials. In respect to
these the question is mooted, wbot would
be he effeot of repealing the prnwnt duty
of 75 cent* per ton oa bituminous coal?
and aome doubt is fdt whether tbe new
eompiez.on of politics may not affect the
deposition of the courts on question*
pending against tbe Beading railroad,
stocks hare su'fered rather frem sympa
thy with the selling of the specialties re
ferred to, than from any supposition that
the prospect threatens them. Although,
on eo large a question It is premature fo
form any defimte eonrlusions as yet,
it comes up with tho first thought that
the reduction <>f wages, and ths choapen-
ingof iron, steel and fuel, which may hi
expected from n lower scale of tariff
duties, should largely economise the op
erating and construction work of the
ra.lrcids, as writ aa facilitate the build
ing of new roads, which f ir the Inst
four years has been sharply curtailed
snd is likely to rontinue so, until the
tariff is reduced.
Tbwe are tho few first-thoughts ex
pressed in Wall street operations In the
few days Immediately following the elec
tion. The now situation introduced is
howorer a Tory wide one. It means a
Doming change in the position and pros
pective value of nearly ererythlng'bongbt
and sold within onr domain, and first-
thoughts. therefore, afford a rery imper
fect indication of what after-thoughts
may bo. Radical change* are impend
ing la every branch of business, and
national reconstruction is before us.
The next two years, therefore, must be
a period of anxiety to tomq but per-
hap* equally of hope to othera. The
mlsfottuno Is that manufacturers may
have to wait for at least eighteen
months (unless an early special session
of th* new congress la ‘culli-il. which
doe* not seem improbable) before they
can know what are to bo the conditions
of tariff under which they will hare to
conduct their business, which is of
course oakulsted to errata demoralisa
tion. On th* other hand, there must
ties on a wide range of products, a dis
position to defer purchases until the
lowar duties snd lower priori take ef
fect. Manufacturers, however, hare
ten--rally one certainty before them—
that duties will bt reduced: and it is
therefore to tx expected that they will
use every endeavor to anticipate the
future conditions by producing at re
duced costs ami thereby encouraging
consumption. Tho situation will hare
its encouragements as well as its dis
couragements. Consumers of imported
raw materials will hare the near pros
pect of getting them free of duty, and
openings for extending our export trade
way be expected to throw open to us
Important new markets for a wide range
of manufactured produc t. StUL bal
