The Best Results.
The best results so far of Coxey’s
march to Washington are found in his
large contributions to workhouses en-
route. It is not unlikely that by the
time Coxey reaches the steps of the
Capitol with a view to influencing na-
liouiil legislation there will be none of
his original “soldiers" outside of prison
walls. 4

is Justice Really Blind?
The action of Judge Chetlain in the
I’reudei‘gast case has given the prisoner
at least a three months’ longer lease of
life. The investigation into his sanity
will not begin until May 21, and even
i‘i' lolllitl to b; sane he cannot be hanged
until July 2.
The Course of justice at Chicago-
s.- ems to have taken a. singular twist of
hue, and ii. is stated that neither Coun-
sel for prosen-uiiou nor for defense can
give any definite idea. of the outcome
of pending complications. The im-
dergiist will finally be dischaiged from
custody, escaping both the insane asy.
luui and the gallows.
It is also thought in some quarters
that. he State’s attorney, Mr. Kern,has
wxakined the case of the prosecuiiOn
s :mcwhat by insmting upon a special
venii-e in the lunacy proceedings, while
the defense is equally insistent upon a
trial before a jury from the regular
panel Mr. Kcrn states that he wants
"mom of intelligence” and not the class
of men usually found on the “regula-
». BOLD tunnel”
The Gang Visits O'Suliivan’s Sa-
loon the Second Time.
Liquors and Cigars Carried Out the
Back Door.
For the second time within an. few
months the saloon of John O’dulli-
van. at the corner of Smith and with
streets, has been burgluriZed and in
each instance entrance was gained
through a back door. .
Friday night Mr. O’Sullivan closed
up his saloon at the usual hour and went
home. This morning his son Frank,”
is his custom. opened the Suloun short-
ly after 6 o’clock. On going behind
the bar he was surprised to find several
boxes of cigars missing and on further
investigation found that the place had
been burglarized. He immediately no.
tilled his father.
The burglars gained an entrance
through a back door some fifteen feet
from an alley-way running between
tho saloon and the pottery-building.
They attempted first to gain an en-
trance by boring through the door
with an sugar for the purpose of throw-
ing the bolt back. _
Four holes were bOi ed one of which
struck the 2— inch bolt “quarely. This
was aiauiloned and the second and third
hole bowl but without success. A large
pane of glassin the door was then
knocked out, and itis believed the burl.-
lure gained access through the spora-
ture, as the bolt to the door was not
drawn or the lock Opened. l‘hoy then
proceeded to help themselves to the
goods on the back of the bar, which in-
cluded four or more boxes of cigars,
oi the Swordfish, Norwalk Club, Hand
Made and Great Union brands. Also
teu bottles of Golden Wedding rye
whiskey, live of bourbon whiskey and
fourteen cents in pennies.
Tracks were discovered leading to
the.buck door from ih rear of the
Armory, and [he indicaiious Were that
a woman or child was a mt‘lllllel‘ '-f the
part}. In the al eywm, nd near a
gate opening on Smiih sire , a larger
beer keg was found which lead to the
llilpl‘eSSlUn that it Was used as a means
of passing: the spoils over the fence to
«‘Oiifrdel'uIE-S.
The burglars went out of the saloon
into a side room, and from thence out
on to Smith street, leaving the door
unlocked. In the side-room there were
two closets filled with bottled liquors
but they were not disturbed.
It is thought that the robbcrv was
committed by some one who Was in the
saloon during the day, as a chalk mark
directly opposite the inside bolt was
found on the outside of the door.
Suspicion points to certain parties as
beingr the guilty ones and they have
been placed under survi- ll once and ar-
rests will probably soon in l w.
The saloon is nicely siliiatel for be-
ing burglarizcd wit-limit detection, and
as the same is left in total darkness
after closing time it would be a com-
paratively easy matter for anyone to
help theméelves to goods without being
tion jury” to try the case. -
Inasmuch as Prendergsst was tried
ail-l Convicted by a “regulation jury”
it does seem a little injudicious for the
St ire counsel to express a want of con-
fidence in juries of that character for
the :GCUI (1 hearing. The inquiry, how.
over, into the defendant’s mental re-
sponsibility will in this instance be el-
tOgcthcr technical, and Mr. Kern pro-
babiy thinks that an expert jury should
be ompanelcd to hear and silt the evi-
dence of expert witnesses.
From present indications a desperate
Clldt‘avol.‘ is already on foot and well
under way to save Prendergast from
CKeCL‘rtiOD, if in no other way, by en:
ianglcmcnts that will lead to indefinite
delays and the ultimate collapse of the

HOW LEAD PENCILS ARE MADE.
Each Company Has Its Own Process and
Uses Secret Machinery.
“There is probably less known about
the manufacture of lead pencils than
any other extensive manufacturing busi-
ness,” said John M. Ready of New
York. “I say extensive business, for
many people do not know that there is
as much as $2,500,000 expended for
lead pencils iii the United States every
year. All the machinery used in the
production of lead pencils is a careful-
ly guarded secret. It is not patented,
but each company has its own process,
and very little is known of it by out-
siders. The general idea of the method
of manufacture can be given. ’
“The graphite, pluinbago or black
lead, whichever you may call it, comes
from three places—India, Germany and
one part of the United States. The
American lead is considered the most
pure, having about one-third more car-
bon and much less silica than tho for-
The plumba‘go as mined
is brought to the factory, when the sil-
ica is separated from the graphite by a
system similar to that employed in sep-
arating free gold from ore. It is crush-

With water, which flows over ‘buniper

water. The lead is then taken and mix-
ed with clayiu a mortar.
“The clay is used as a temper to the
lead. The more clay used the harder
the lead becomes, as when the mixture
is baked the heat affects the clay, hurd-
ening it, while it has no effect upon the
graphite. The mixture is then placed
in a hydraulic press, which forces it out
like a black twine. This is run upon
tables, where it is out in lengths of 7
inches, the length of ii regular lead pen-
cil, and straightened. It is then placed
in the ovens. I have seen a continuous
piece of this mixture of clay and graph-
ite a mile long come from the press.
The pieces of lead are taken from the
oven and placed in the wood, which is
made in two pieces, then cemented to-
gether. There is a peculiar fact about
cedar, the wood most suitable for pen-
cils. The further south you go to ob-

But There Is No Telling “risen It May

CONNELLSVILLE, Pa, April 7. —-Peaee
. once more reigns throughout thecoke re-
. gions, but no one can tell how long this
condition of aflairs will continue. The.
' operators say the backbone of the strike.
: has been broken and the, end is only a few
. , days ahead. The Frick officials at Scott-
I dale report everything quiet at all their
plants and they do not fear any more trou-
ble. Similar reports come from Rainey’s
; general ofilce at Vanderbilt. E
None of the Frick plants is 7"- operation, ‘j
owing to the death of Chief L giueer Pad- _'
(look, but they will be fired up tomorrow
or Monday. Many of their plants were
charged with coke when Paddock was
soon as it is burned. N o miners are work-
ing at any of their plants.
Of the Rainey works Mount Braddock
and Elm Grove are idle. Moyer, Rainey,
Paul and Fort Hill are in operation, the
two latter having been fired up today. Le-
mont, Nos. 1 and 2, are the only plants of
the McClure Coke company POW idle that
were in operation before the strike begun.
Cochran & Sons fired up their Clarissa and
Nellie works today.
Although the operators say the strike is
ended, they are preparing for possible out-
breaks at any time. The Rainey officials
ordered a large body of deputies from
their Mayer works to the Vanderbilt re-
gion. Others will be stationed at Elm
Grove and near the Paul and Fort- Hill
works ready to suppress any violence that
may occur. Cochran’s Clarissa and Nel-
lie works are guarded by 25 Pinkerton
men from Pittsburg.
The strikers do not think the strike ai:
broken. Their leaders say the men are
gradually recovering from the confusion
into which they were thrown by the arrest
of the officers of the organization and the
100 Dawson rioters. As soon as, the men
recover from the fright, the leaders say,
the strike Will be renewed with more vlg01
than ever.
ROSEBERY IS 11" DANGER.
The Fate of His Government an Exciting
Topic In London. '
LONDOX, April 7’.——The fate of the Rose
bery government is being warmly dis-
cussed in political circles today. The de-
feat of the government when it was beaten
by a'majcrity of one on a private bill and
when the majorities on other questions fell
off 18 to 15 votes causes much excitement
in the political world, and it is freely pre-
dicted that the government cannot last
long. ~
The second reading of the East London
water bill was opposed by Mr. Shaw-Le-
fevre, president of the local government
board, on behalf of the government, but
the measure was carried in face of’vigor-
ous efiorts upon the part of the Whips by a
vote of 228 to 327. .
All the I’arnellites and many of the Mo-
Carthyltes were absent from the division
and had paired previous to going away.
The Conservative press comments joy—
fully upon the position of the government,
while the Liberal organs, such as The
Daily News and \Vestminster Gazette,
warn the Liberal party to be careful.
The Daily News says, “If greater vigi-
lance is not observed, a serious disaster
will occur.” ' ~-
The \Vestminster Gazette remarks, “The
serious feature of the situation was the
absence of the 10 Nationalists and the Red-
mondites from the house.”

erally selected from celebrated pictures
Whose owners had copyrighted them. 11

on those copyright-s.

the secretary, this bill covered the case,
and time could be saved, by its immediate
adoption by the house. The house com-
mittee thereupon voted unanimously to
report the senate bill. Chairman Mc-
Creary, however, fears the unanimous cone
sent of the house, necessary for advancing
the bill, may not be secured. In that»
event he is prepared to secure a special
rule frOm the rules committee making the
business. Secretary Gresham’s talk with
the. committee did not indicate any un-’
easmesS as to the satisfactory close of the
