TELEGRAPHIC SOIMRi, ETC. The Situation in the Schuylkill ana Lehigh Minus; Regions. Pottsville, August 11. The Miners' Journal ro-morrow will publish tbe following on the mining situation in this region: "At another meeting of the Knights of Labor, of this county, held last week, the subject of a general strike. which had been determined upon to take place early in August, was lecauvassej.

Tbe employes of the Philadelphia and Reading Coal aud Iron Company were almost unanimously opposed to a strike. They stated that while tbe waizes were not each as tbey thought they ought to have, tbev baa been gradually increased under the operation of Mr. Gowen's plan of making them participants in the advance of tolls; that they were informed there would be another advance soon, which would bring their wages up to the two dollar and fifty cent basis, and that tbey had assurance of steady work for tbe balance of the year at this rate, and that they preferred to let well enough alone lor the present. On a vote being taken it was found that a majority were of this opinion, and so the danger of a general strike in this re-giou may be said to have passed for the present- There will no doubt be local strikes, as has been the case dnring the past week, brought on by those who are not paid the same wages as are given by the Coal and Iron Company. The individual operators cannot afford to pay tbe same rate of wages as the company at the present price of coal, tor they are not participants in the profits of the advanced rate of tolls.

Some pay it, however, under protest, in order to keep peace at the mines. Others do not. and strikes are tbe consequence. We are credibly informed that at a merting of the Lehigh operators, held at Hazelton. Friday it was determined to pay ihe men on the 1875 basis.

This destroys the ground of discontent, and leaves no pretext for a strike in that region." LOCAL MATTERS. Almanac for Baltimore This Day. Sunrises 83 evening. I Moon rises 1 10 Uigs Vi at ur, ha Itimore, August li, 1878. Time 6.W A.

Cass of Dr. P. S. Jones, of Memphis, Tenn. Extract om Letter of Dr.

Jorwi, dated Memphis, August 3. 1878: "Awatening irom sleep in a carrent of cold air, having previously enjoyed good health. I found myself affected with severe pain in the loins, which continued for seventy-two hours, the pain extending on oue Bide alone the great sciatic nerve to the extremity of the limb. With the subsidence of these symptoms I found that there was paralysis of the limb. After three years of sneering, which was attended by painful contraction of the muscles, frequently so great as to necessitate the use of opiates to produce eleep, an affection of tbe Kidneys and bladder supervened; symptoms frequent and urgent demand for voiding tbe urine, perbaps as often as every twenty or thirty minutes, which was high colored and charged with blood, its passage being attended with great burning and spasm of the neck of the biacdur, unfitting me for business.

I was treated by several emi-uent physicians and surgeons, and made several visits to the celebrated Hot Springs of Arkansas, fully testing thse waters, but all without material benefit. I have now been using for some weeks the Waters of the Buffalo Lithia Springs. Va, with astonishing results. 1 am so far relieved of all of my distressing symptoms above stated that I suffer no inconvenience or concern about my bealtb, and have no doubt of a speedy, perfect and permanent cure in ail respects from the further use of the water.

"July 30. 1878. Dear Lord Beaconsfield: I find you are reported in tbe Times to-day to have made last night a reference to a speech delivered oy me at Oxford, and in which yon stated that I described you as a dangerous and even a devilish character. I shall beobliged byyourinform-ing me on wbat words of mine yon found this statement. You are likewise reported to have said that during tbe controversy on the Eastern question 1 have indulged in criticisms reflecting with the most offensive epithets upon your conduct and in descriptions of your character.

Will you have the goodness to supply me with a list or selection of these offensive epithets, applied not merely to your measures, but to your personal character, and with a note of the times and places at which they were used? If you have been inaccurately reported 1 ask your pardon for navmg troubled you with this letter, which is, I need hardly add. of a public nature. E. BEACONSFIELD TO GLADSTONE. "Lord Beaconsfield presents bis compliments to Mr.

Gladstone, and has tbe honor to acknowledge the receiptor his letter of this day's date, relerring to some remarks made by Lord Beaconsfield last night in the House of Lords, and requesting to be supplied with 'a list of offensive epithets applied, not merely to Lord Beaconsfield'a measures, but to his person and character, and with a note of the times ana places at which they were As this would require a research over a period of two years and a-half, during which Mr. Gladstone, to use his own expressions at Oxford, has been counterworking 'by day and by night, week by week, and month by the purpose of Lord Beaconsfield, Lord Beaconsfield, is at this moment much pressed with affairs, is obliged to request those gentlemen who are kind enough to assist him in the conduct of public business to undertake the necessary re- searcnes, wnicn prooaDiy win require some little time; but that Lord Beaconsfield, by such delay in replying to Mr. Gladstone may not appear wanting in becoming courtesy, he must observe with reference to the Oxford speech referred to in the House of Lords, which was one long invecttva against the government, that Mr. Gladstone then remarked that when he spoke ot the government he meant Lord Beaconsfield, who was alone rosponsible. and by whom th great came of England had been 'degraded and "In the same spirit, a few days back, at Sonth-wark.

FROM WASHINGTON. rSpecial Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.1 The South Carolina Revenue Cases The Republican Party Machine Congressman Foster and the President's Southern Policy Tne Financial Issne-Ex-Attorney General Tal't on tbe Situation. THE SOUTH CAROLINA TRIALS. Washington, August 11.

The government has nearly completed the necessary arrangement's for the trial of the revenue cass lu South Carolina, at a term of the United States Circuit Court to be held early in September, at which Chief Justice Waite and Judge Bond will occupy the bench together. The federal authorities here are impressed with the importance of these cases and the issues involved, and will have unusually strong counsel to conduct the cases, to maintain the right of tbe general eovernment to enforce its laws in tbe several States without tbe interference of State authorities. Ex-Secretary B. H. Briatow has been invited to take charge of ihe cases in behalf of tne government, and has signified his readiness to do so.

He will be allowed to select such assistance as he may desire, and the probability is that other prominent lawyers will be asked to take part in the cases. It is known here that the TState authorities of South Carolina will contest to their utmost ability the position taken by tbe federal government, and maintain that the States alone have jurisdiction of such cases as the present ones. Eminent counsel will be employed to aid the attorney general of the State, and the cases are regarded by leading lawyers as of- the most important that have arisen for years. It is expected that the cases will be carried no to the Supreme Court of the United States for a final decision, no matter how they may be decided by the Circuit Court. MB.

FOSTER AND THE PRESIDENT'S POLICY. Reoresentative Charles Foster, of Ohio, who is nowhere running tbe republican michine in behalf of the republican congressional committee, is evidently disturbed at the criticisms on his recent speech in Onio, wherein he was supposed to have gone completely back on the President's Southern policy. Information reachts here to-night from Mr. Foster's home in Ohio that bis friends there have been aatnorized to say that a wrong construction has beeu placed upon his speech; hat be did not intend to have it understood that he considered the President had made a mistake in his Southern policy, but that, on tne contrary, tie continues to consider that policy "wise and just, but is disappointed to find it nas not produced the results he hoped lor." THE PARTY MACHINE. The repnblicau campaign is being pushed from here under Mr.

Foster's direction, ill the same old way, and the party machine is manipulated in the same old grooves. While professing civil service reform, the republican committee is resorting to all of the politician's tricks to enhance the prospects of success, and no person is more active in this direction than Mr. Foster, who has now full cbarse of the repuolican congressional committee rooms here, in the absence of of the secretary, Mr. Gorham. JUDGE TAFT OS THE SITUATION.

A letier received here from Ohio says ex-Attornev-Gencral Taft, who has just returned home from a trip East, expresses the opinion that the republican party have got to fight the financial question and that an earnest fight for bonest money will eDAble them to succeed, despite the growth of the national party. Judge Talt assumes that the democrats, as a party, will lean towards the nationals, and that the hard money democrats will not be able to direct, the next campaizn for the democrats, but will be overruled by such men as Ewing, Pendleton, and Bland, of Missouri. I Special Dispatcn to the Baltimore Sun.l The Affairs of Jay Cooke Co. Philadelphia, Aug. 11.

Tne committee of creditors of the Jay Cooke Co. estate, desiring to save any further unnecessary litigation, have addressed a communication to Mr. Hazlehurst. attorney, wbo had given notice of suit to pat the estate back into the bands of tbe bankruptcy court, in which they say that although tne meetings for the purpose of auditing, adjusting and settling the accounts of the trustee have been adjourned, nevertheless they will give him another hearing as soon as he will give them the names of the creditors for whom he is acting, and the committee say that be was present at the last meeting, and when be made objection to one single item they asked that objection might be put in such shape as they could act upon it. This he did not do, and, there being no objection, the account was audited and approved.

After appointing a fourth meeting on Friday next the committee adds: "In the meantime the trustee will furnish you with every facility you may reqaire for the purpose of obtaining such information as you may think necessary or proper in your investigation. This we will do so soon as yen state the name of your client and the information you wish. You will further na derstand that all the matters to which your letter refers are in the judgment of the committee cognizable by tbem. and tbey do not recognize any such right as you claim to proceed by bill' in equity." This Mr. Hazlehnrst declines to do.

nd at tbe same time says that he has a different interpretation of the order of Judge Strong defining the powers of the committee under the law and orders of the court. Special Dispatch to tbe Baltimore Sun.1 The Grand Todsre of Odd-Fellows and their Aext Philadelphia, Aug. 11. The attention of Grand Sire John W. Stokes, of this city, has been engaged lately by a matter of considerable importance to Odd-Fellowship.

The question is whether the place of the next session of tbe Grand Lodge of the United States. 1. O. O. shall be changed from Austin, Texas, on account of tbe yellow fever, to Baltimore.

The representatives don't leel inclined to serve their constituents in an unhealthy region, as Austin is believed to be, and the grand sire is puzzled as to whether it would be justifiable for him. under tbe circumstances, to change tbe place. In a few days tbe question must be decided. There is no precedent for changing the order of the grand body by the executive officers, but in such an event it would doubtless not be seriously contested. The principal officers are.

Grand Sire John W. Stokes. Philadelphia; Deputy Grand Sire John B. Harman, of California; Grand Secretary James L. Ridgely, and Grand Treasurer Hon.

Josbua Vansant, both of Marylend. The mission of the special commissioner to Australia has been successful, and will be followed by important results. He is on big way borne ward. A Political Fisrht in Arkansas One Man Killed and Several Wounded. Memphis.

August 11. At a meeting held in Apperson grove, near Jones's Landing, Arkansas, a few miles above Memphis. Saturday, Wm. F. Beatty, democratic sheriff appointed by Governor ililler.

and Ed. Lewis, a former sheriff of the county, with their friends, met and began the oiscussion of the issue which divided the people of the county. Lewis, who is tbe republican nominee, was first to speak. After he had concluded Major Earle mounted the staud and proposed to give his record of Lewis. This the crowd of colored people who were present objected to, and Major Earle was forced to desist.

He asked bis friends to go with him to a bill near by, where he would speak without being interrupted. As Major Earle was descending from the platform a pistol shot was fired. This was tbe signal for a rush by the white men present to a wagon near at hand, which waa filled with arms of every description, and a general fire was opened on the followers of Lewis, and in tbe melee one negro was killed and several others wounded. Another fatal shooting affair occurred at Austin, Saturday morning, between Bud Evans and Wm. Fret-well, both parties being reported killed.

The Colonist, an anti-Chinese paper, declares the bill will make the province a laughing stock thronsbout Christendom, because of its absurd provisions, and charges that it was drawn by heavy employers of Chinese labor to insure its disallowance at Ottawa.

The commissioner of internal revenue at Washington has official advices to the effect that Redmond, the South Carolina outlaw, has signified his willingness to surrender if sentence against him for violating the revenue laws be suspended, and he is willing to stand trial for the murder of Duckworth.

The commissioner, however, decides that the case of Remond is entirely exceptional, and should not be included with those of ordinary offenders. Under instructions from Washington the post-office authorities at San Francisco are making preparations to transport $7,000,000 in gold from that city to New York as third class mail matter.

Serious Railroad Accident One 3 fan Killed and Several Injured at Jlood'a Mitts. An accident occurred at Hood's Mills, on the main stem of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. SI miles from Baltimore, about baif-past five o'clock Saturday morning, caused by a freight train running into a four-Dorse wagon, and resulted in the death of a man who was stealing a ride on tbe train, the serious injury of oue of the persons in tbe wagon, and tbe wreck of tbe freight cars. At the time of tbe accident the wagon was occupied by the following members of Bmerich's music band, Baltimore: David Kmench, leader, Henry uncke, Joseph Ferris and Henry Silver. The band had furnished music at tha grangers' picnic, near Cooksvilie, Howard county, on Friday, and at night stopped at the house of Mr.

Charles Hobbs, whence they started for Hood's Mills at an early hour to take the "milk train" for Baltimore. The party.were in a covered four-horse wagon, driven by a colored man, and on arriving at the railroad cross ing he attempted to drive across in front of an east-bound freight train, but was not able to clear the track in time to avoid collision. Tbe engine struck tbe wheel-horses of tbe wagon, killing tbem instantly and overturning the wagon, wbich was badly broken, and throwing out its occupants, one ot wnom, Mr. Yuncke, was seriously injured. The colored driver was thrown to tbe ground, but by singular good fortune escaped witbout injury.

Mr. Emerich was slightly injured about the left side and bis wrist sprained. Mr. Ferris bad his left knee injured, but not seriously, Mr. Silver being the only one of the four who escaped without hurt.

The freight train, wbich consisted of an engine and ten cars, jumped the track and was badly wrecked, seven or eiehi cars beiDg broken open and their contents, grain. fcc, strewn along the track. The body of a man. supposed to be a tramp, and whose name was subsequently discovered to be Alexander Caldwell, was found lying partly under one of tbe cars. The man was still living, but was horribly mutilated, his left thigh beintt pierced by an iron rod, with other lacerations about the limbs, and the body injured internally.

A physician was proenred and tbe leg amputated, but be died in a short time after the operation. Tbe musicians and the body of Caldwell arrived in Baltimore at 12.23 o'clock P. M. by the Winchester train. Tne body was taken to Mount Clare Station and bnried by the company yesterday afternoon, in the Western Cemetery.

A solaier's discharge from the United States army was found In bis pocket giving the following description: "Alexander Caldwell, private loth Infantry, enlisted February, 1873, for five years, born in Philadelphia, 2o years of age, blue eyes, brown hair, occupation a caroenter, discharged Feb. 16. 1868; captain of company, Cbarleton From another paper on his person it is supposed that ne has recently lived in Gloucester City, Camden county, New Jersey. Mr. Henry Tnncke, of Emerich's band, was removed to bis dwelling, No.

90 North Caroline street, where-he remains under eurgical treatment. He has two ribs broken, a cut on tbe bead and slight injuries of the left arm and fingers. Tbe other members of the band proceeded to their respective homes. They tus-tained severe damage by their musical instruments beiog broken. Tbe loss of Mr.

Hobbs is considerable by tbe killing of two norses. and tbe breaking ol his wagon. Tbe damaue of the railroad company is heavy in breakage of cars and injury to their contents. As soon as the disaster was known in Baltimore a wrecking train, under Mr. Frank Mantz, was sent to the spot and tbe work of clearing the tracks completed during the afternoon.

Mr. Wm. M. Clements, master of transportation, superintended the operations. Tbe excitement in tbe neighborhood of Hood's Mills was very great, and various accounts are ei ven as to the cause of the disaster.

Officers of the company state that tbe engine whistle was blown in full time for tbe driver to stop before the approach of tbe train, and that he was warned by a party near the crossing not to go on, bnt whipped np bis borses and attempted to cross in front of the train, which could not be stopped in time to avert the collision. It is alleged on the other stde that the lead horses were actually on the track before tbe train was seen or the heard, and that they became so frightened the driver could not get tbem ont of tbe way. Trains over the main stem were delayed several hours by the accident. Shot in the JS'eck. John Eichele, saloon keeper, at the intersection of tbe Philadelphia and North Point roads, near Herring run, was shot in the back of the neck on Thursday mgbt last by a nistol in the bands of James Campbell, who was released on $1,000 for tbe action of the grand iurv ot Baltimore county by Justice Dor-sey, of Canton.

It appears that Campbell and James Stevenson were in the saloon together, their horses standing at the door in charge of a colored hostler named Dennis. One of the horses ran away from tbe door, ana tbe blame was laid npon Dennis, anda number of blows were struck. Dennis drew a revolver and fired several shots ut Stevenson, none of them taking effect. Campbell, who was then seated in his own carriage, drew his revolver from bis pocket, and it was instantly discharged, the ball striking Eichele, who was holding Stevenson's horse, in the back of the neck, passing nearly through. Campbell claims that the shooting was entirely accidental on his part.

Stevenson was arrested with Campbell as a participant, bnt was dismissed. The wound is very painful, but by no means danr gerous. Ihe Opening of Covington Street.
