ing the courthouse. He made a grab

QUIET WITH THE RIOTER 3.
Sunday Pamd Surnnaly in ih« ?-.u>ian«.d
C<»i*i Region.
Pittsburg, Pa., January 29. Th;
quiet of Sunday prevailed yeateidxy
throughout the Mausilebl co.il ffgioß,
the scene of Saturday’s rioti ig. But
few strikers were seen of their
houses, and the deputy sheriffs on
guaid at the various mines in the dis
ti i. t had little to occupy their atten
tion. By many, however, the calm
was regarded as preceding the storm.
Tiler,; are well grounded fear* of an
another outbreak tomorrow, and the
.aw-anding citizens are preparing to
meet it. Trusted foreigners, who
were supposed to be in svm-
P* t»y with tle rioters, were
sent out this morning by tin
.-o -l operators. They circulated freelv
villi the strikers, and this evening re
turned with the information that pre
parations were being made to attack
.he work -, at Bridgeville. Rosevale am.
lieadling. The feeling among th;
r.i -te,--> is very bitter against the Bead
ling brothers for the killing of Fianl.
Stepitz, and they assert that they will
mvc revenge.
if another attack is made on tin
ileadling works the foreigners will
meet with a still warmer reception
than that accorded them yesterday.
1 here are twelve men in the Bead
ling family, and every one is as de
termined and brave as" the three who
yesterday put to flight a mob of sev
eral hundred.
Thomas Beadling says he and hi.-
brothers fired at least one hundred
shots yesterday, and he is satisfied
that if a search of the strikers' houset
was made at least a score of wounded
men would be found.
K'lled by a Band of Outlaws.
San Antonio, Tex., January 29.
Frank Howell, a ranchman of Pecos
county, arrived here yesterday and
brought news of the killing of a prom
inent young American, named Henry
W. Carew, by a band of Mexican out
laws, supposed to be remnants of

forces. Mr. Carew came to southwest
Texas a few months ago from Chatta
nooga, Tenn., and was prospecting in
Pecos county with a view of going into
the sheep raising business there on an
extensive scale. He left the ranch of
Mr. Howell last Tuesday for a trip into
Mexico. He was traveling alone, and
had hardly crossed the border when he
•vas attacked and killed. His pockets
were rifled of a considerable sum of
money and his horse stolen. The body
of the murdered man was not found
until Friday. The trail of the bandits
has been followed iiAo the mountains
below the Big Bend of the Rio Grande
river in Mexico.

HAWAIIAN MATTER THIS WEEK.
That and the Federal rile tljn Bill Will
Divide the Attention of the S. nate.
Washington, January 2b. The pres
nt indications ore that the federal elec
tion bill and the Hawaiian questions
will, in a large measure, divide the at
tention of the senate this week.
If the tariff bill should pass the
house, according to program, Thurs
day, and be sent into the senate, noth
ing' would be done with it more than to
refer it to the finance committee, where
it will rest for at least a few weeks, so
that there is little or no prospect of
this subject interfering in any way for
the present with the consideration of
the bills ami resolutions already on the
calendar.
The Hawaiin question has right of
way for the morning, that is. up to 2
o'clock, and the election bill after that
time.
The Hawaiian discussion will be
based upon the resolution reported by
Senator Turpie. from the committee on
foreign resolutions, and the various
amendments and substitutes will inci
dentally be taken up. There are four
amendments proposed, one each by
Senators Manderson, Dolph, Stewart
and Gal linger, and one substitute, that
offered by Senator Vest.
The amendments of the first three
senators are much on the same line,
and recognize the present government
of Hawaii, without committing the
senate to any proposition against an
nexation, even for expediency's sake.
Senator Dolph's amendment looks to
.he recall of Minister Willis, and Sen
ator Vest’s substitute declares unqual
ifiedly against annexation.
In case the judiciary committee
makes its report upon the Peckham
nomination there is likely to be con
siderable time devoted to executive
business, and there may be. in auj’
event, several other nominations.
Denies Knowledge of the Scheme.
London, January 29. —Joseph Cham
berlain denies any knowledge of the
alleged unionist scheme for home rule
published in the Speaker, a well known
Gladstonian weekly newspaper. John
Redmond, the Parnellite leader, said
that he would not be suprised if such a
scheme was under way. Balfour’s re
cent utterances, he said, were signifi
cant as an indication that the opposi
tion condemned Gladstone's bill rather
than home rule generally. Mr. Red
mond then proceeded to comment
strongly, upon Edward Blake’s appeals
to America for aid to the starving vic
tims of eviction. Mr. Redmond said
that these appeals were open to criti
cism, when Mr. Blake’s party could, if
it were harmonious, get £30,000 out ol
the Paris funds without any legal ob
stacles being offered. The Parnellites.
:e added, did not, insist that prioi
claims should be settled before the re
lease of the funds. Timothy llealv and
his followers, Mr. Redmond said, caused
the deadlock, Mr. Healy claiming that
he had made no pledges to the evicted
tenants that they had not co-operate,
in the plan of campain or agrariai
movement. Mr. Redmond said that the
Parnellites and the adherents of Mr.
John Dillon were practically agreed as
to the disposal of the funds, and that
unless the Healyites shortly came to i
settlement, the public might expec’
some interesting revelations.
Tired of Jail Life.
Columbus, January 29.—There was n
sensation in the big dining room at the
Ohio penitentiary today when Convie.
John Conroy rose in the presence o
the 1,900 prisoners, seated at breakfast,
and announced his intention of taking
his own life. Conroy slashed the side
of his neck with the knife he had been
eating with, and after he sat down the
blood poured in a stream over his
shoulder. Conroy was taken to the
hospital,where it was found the wound
would not be fatal. The fellow has
had a mania for killing himself tn pub
lic. Once he deliberately sawed a finger
off in the prison shops in order that he
might not be compelled to work. Con
roy is serving five years from Muskin
gum county for having burglars tools
in his possession.
Bold Robbery and Murder In Mfiloo.
Durango, Mex., January 29.—The
authorities here were notified yester
day of a desperate murder and robbery
committed about eighty-five miles west
of here, the perpetrators being a band
of brigands led by the notorious out
law Francisco Reiseda. A mule train,
loaded with silver ore from the Santa
Maria mines, was on its way to the re
ducing works, when the bandits made
an attack upon the guards, killing the
foreman, Sose Villareal, who attempted
to offer resistance. The other guards
lied, leaving the burros, with their
precious cargoes, in possession of the
bandits, who, drove the animals t<
their rendezvous in the mountains. A
force of troops will be sent in pursuit
of the robbers.
