The Beam and the Mote.

l’c0ple who read thenewspapersquite
closely will doubtless remember how
frequently and willingly members of
the New York police force commented
on the inability of their London breth-
crn to capture that prince of murderers,
whose only cognomen was “Jack the
llipper.” Indeed, if half the opinions
expressed by Gotham’s blue coats were
earnest, the average reader could hard-
ly do otherwise than believe that all
mystified and terrified London had to do
to secure relief was to engage one or two
of New York’s “finest.” Just now it
would be quite in order for the “Lou-
non hobbies” to ask Superintendent
Byrnes why it is that his Sleuths, who
were forever and at long range showing
how easy it was to capture the “Ripper”
have failed to find out the truth as to
three rather notable homicides that have
occurred recently. A little girl well
known to many people and clad in gar-
ments which could be identified beyond
question lost her life at the hands of
some villiau, but for a million dollars
the police could not tell who the villian
was. Miss Martha Fuller, a typewriter,
died from a pistol wound, today, after
weeks devoted to what seems to have
been investigation, the author of her
death is still unknown. Gottlieb Grob
was murdered in a house, every room
of which was occupied at the time of the
crime, but the murderer is still free.
What isfihat scriptural reference to the
mote which is in our brother’s eye.

The Coal Strikers.

Of all the strikes that have ever taken
place in this country no other one has
had less of popular sympathy than the
strike of coal miners which is now on.
There are times when the exercise of
the privilege of quitting work has in it
many of the elements of propriety, for
there are tyrannical employers, and
protests are occasionally necessary and
right: but it passes the understanding
of most people why more than two
hundred thousand miners should go
out on a strikerjust now. The past
twelve months have been filled with

trouble for the business interests of the

country. There has been and still is
unexampled depression in almost every
line of industry. Dist-rust has troubled
the national mind, money has hastened
into profitless and trade-paralyzing sc-
clusion, and, as a natural sequence,
misery has taken up its residence in
thousands of homes where its gaunt
shape had never before been seen. And
yet while the great popular outcry was
for work. these miners forsook their
employment and deliberately entered
the ranks of the idle and the suffering.
Many of the strikers were doubtless
illy paid, and it is conceded by the
operators that there are inequalities in
the wage scale, but at this period it
would seem as though industry which
was recompenscd at from 25:2 to $4. per
day was inlinitcly preferable to com-
plete idleness and a condition closely
akin to pauperism. But bad as is this
state of affairs for the miners them-
selves, there is acondition infinitely
- worse confrontinga much greater num-
but of people who are now at work and
who want to continue so. As a natural
result of the coal strike, the price of
fuel has moved upward, while the sup-
ply has diminished ‘to such an extent
that in less than another week very.
many manufacturing establishments
will be compelled to shut down, many
railroads be forced to discharge thou-
sands of their laboring forces, many
vessels remain iisclcssly moored to
empty wharvcs. No one who loves his
fellow-man can view without concern
this probability of greatly augmented
distress. Cannot some compromise be
speedily reached?

After The Mayor.

A crowd of laboring men gathered
around the city hall at Waterbury,
Tuesday, looking for Mayor Kilduff
and vowing vengeance on his head.
Had be shown himself he would un-
doubtedly been roughly handled. The
laborersasscmblcd for the purpose of
demanding that they be given work on
the new water works in place of the
Italians who are now employed there.

LOCKED UP. *

General Sweetland, Commanding
the Cenneotlout Division of

‘Goiey’s Army, Arrested
in New York.

His Advance Agent Failed to Get a

Permit to Parade.

General Sweetland, commanding the
Connecticut division of Coxey’s ne’er-
do~well army which left Norwalk Sun-
day morning, was made prisoner and
his soldiers put to flight by a mounted
policeman in the New York Annexed
District at 5 o’clock Tuesday after-
noon. This mishap to the “General”
and his sixty-one ragamufiin followers
was made possible by the disobedience
or neglect of advance agent Pat Con-
nor, and it would have gone hard with
him had he fallen into the clutches of
the angry bummers. It appears that
their courier reached New York on
Monday night and was surfcitcd. with
provender supplied at the Socialist
near
Broadway. After filling himself with
food Pat applied to Superintendent
Byrnes for a permit, which would allow
the advancing army to march to the
headquarters, from the Harlem River,
but was refused. _

He did not notifv his chief of his
failure, and with flags flying Sweet-
land’s force was tramping into town
expecting every minute to meet Con-
nor with the permit. Sweetland and
his crowd left Rye at 10 o’clock, and
had just passed south through West
Farms when the policeman hove in
sight. Thomas O’Brien, of Meridcn,
with a banner of peace, was at the
head of the men, who marched in
double file. When Sweetland could
show no permit he was arrested, and
his men, fearing that the mounted man
might take them all to the guard house,
scattered like chaff. Each chap struck
out for himself. making as straight at
line as his knowledge of the town per-
mitted, to the haven of rest in East
Tenth street. The first limped in
about 6:30 o’clock and they kept com-
ing for an hour or more.

Sweetland was locked in the Tre-
mout police station. As fast as his
footsore followers struggled into the
Socialists’ headquarters they were es
carted to the wash room, after which
they were treated to a supper of soup,
corned beef, bread and coffee.

The army will remain in New York
to-day and will take council with their
leader if he is released. A mass meet-
ing will be held in the headquarters to-
night. when speeches will be made and
contributions requested. The march
to Washington will probably be re-
sumed to-morrow.

Are Ready and Willing.

Messrs. J. F. Bennett and G. W.
Hunter state to a GAZETTE reporter
that Councilman Osborn is entirely
mistaken as to their having “refused to
meet the city half way” in the proposed
improvements on East avenue. They
say they have at all times been ready
and willing to have benefits and dam-
ages assessed. which has been held by
the Supreme Court in a recent decision
to be the only proper mode of proced-
ure in such cases, and to abide by the
decision of such committee; or to come
to any equitable agreement which may
be reached between the city and them-
selves; that not until a force of men
armed with axes came on the property
to destroy their trees did they resort to
legal steps to protect the property, and
that no proposition of any nature has
ever been made to them by the officials
looking to a friendly adjustment of the
matter. They also say that the state-
ment that they are the “only ones to
be benefitted” by the construction of
the sewer will not be relished by the
representative citizens and taxpayers
who signed the petition, and “that such
unwarranted and inaccurate official ut-
terances are not calculated to promote
a peaceful settlement of existing difli-
cultics.”

They Forced in the Doors.

——An exciting scene occurred last
Saturday night, in front of the new
store of W. B. Hall & Co., Bridgeport.
The firm had just moved one door
north of their old location and Satur—
day they held their welcomc sale in
their new house. They took the store
of Copeland Bros. whom they have just
bought out and are sacrificing the stock
at prices never known before. The
crowd_was so great that W. B. Hall A:
Co. tried to dlosc their doors for ‘10
minutes tutorials in order to facilitate
trade, but the crowd surged so heavily
against the doors that they gave way
and they forced an entrance, filling the
big store to overflowing.

This is without exception the great.
est sale of Dry Goods ever known in
Western Connecticut, some people buy.
ing a whole year’s supply of goods. ’

MUSIC HALL

There is no denying the popularity
of “l'he County Fair” nor its quaint-
ness nor realism. It has jumped into
instant favor wherever presented, and
theatres are everywhere tested to their
capacity. That its metropolitan fame
has reached here is best evidenced by
the large seat sale in progress, and
play-goers who love choice places are
warned accordingly. The play is a
straight, laughable and pure comedy,
embellished with beautiful scenery and
presenting a number of novel effects,
including a real horse race, whlch is
the greatest and most legitimate bit of
realism ever put in a play. The com-
pany will appear at Music Hall, Mon-
day cvening, May 14th. '

* IN THE COKE REGION.

An Intended Plan of the Frlck Company 15
Likely to Cause. Trouble.

CONNELLSVlLLE, Pa, May 0.—'l‘lm Frick
Coke company is making :1 desperate ef~
fort to start its works secretly, us was
done during the great strike three years
ago. They are coller‘ing men at all their
works who are willing to work and will
start one plant at a. time. If this is unsuc-
cessful, new men will be brought into the
region, and in that event there will be
more rioting.

The strikers at Hill Farm are becoming
desperate and have posted notices on all
the company houses warning the men to
keep away. The notices are headed by a
skull and crossbones, with the following
written underneath in large red charac-
ters: “Death! All men 'who go to work
at. Hill Farm tomorrow, prepare to meet
yipr God.” '

'1 he company is determined to resume
tomorrow and already has a. force of dep-
uties on guard.

Deputies were busy throughout the re-
gion today serving the injunction notices
on the leaders to keep off Rainey-‘s prop-
erty and evicting strikers from company
houses. There was no trouble, but an out-
break is liable to oceur at any time.

Thinks the Strike “'ill Be Settled.

CLEVELAND, May 9.—.~\n officer of the
Massillon Coal Operator-5’ association, who
has been traveling in the Ohio and Penn-
sylvania fields for several days. said today
that the big conference, which will be held
in this city next week, will put an -end to

or not.
ators,” he said, “who have offered what
the men have asked—viz, the rate
that was fixed several years ago, which
averaged about 70 cents. Many of them
have the assurances of their men that they
will go to work, whatever the result of
the conference, and the moment any of the
large mines are put in operation the strike
will be broken.”

Gillespie Miners Go Out.

SPRINGFIELD, 11155., May 9.—~President
Crawford of the Illinois Mine Workers has
returned from Gillespie and states that at
a meeting held there 600 miners from
Mount Olive, Glenarm and Staunton were
present, and they succeeded in inducing
all but 20 of 165 employees in the Consoli~
dated Coal company’s mine at Gillespie to
go out. '

HUNTERS STARVE.

Bodies Found by a. Party In the Sierra
Madre Mountains.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 9.—Fruncis Mur-
phy, an American engineer and mining
man, has returned to this city from Mazat-
lan, Mexico. He left Burago five weeks
ago to find the whereabouts of H. L. Den-
ton, C. P. Hall and Frank Turnstall,
Americans, and two Mexican guides, who
started from Sulto some months ago on a
prospecting and hunting expedition into

. the Sierra. Madre mountains.

In a. ravine nearly 40 miles from Salto
part of a. camping outfit belonging to the
missing men was discovered. A blind
trail was followed for 10 miles over the
most rugged and inhospitable portion of
the mountain region. At one point a pole
had been driven into the ground, to which
had been fastened a. torn shirt and a piece
of paper on which was printed with a pen-
cil the words, “Out of provisions; no wa-
ter; have struck out for the foot of this
canyon.” '

Five miles in a westerly direction from
this signal the bodies of Denton and Hall
were found. Several camp utensils, a
rifle and a number of cartrides were scat-
tered about the spot. The bodies were
partly devoured by coyotes, but were
very easily identified. Murphy buried the
bodies and then pushed the hunt for Tum
stall and the Mexicans, but was entirely
unsuccessful in finding any trace of Turn.
stall, although he remained out for nearly
10 days. It is supposed that all of the
missing men have died of starvation.

The Alleged Armor Plate Frauds.

PITTSBURG, May 9.——Captain Sampson,
Lieutenant Ackerman and ,Profcssor Al-
ger, the board appointed to'invcstigate the
charges of armor plate frauds at the Car-
