Ths Sehwylklll Rate of Wage for Jnne Tna Appeal of (he Operat ors -The Lehigh HeKln and the Situation The Complete i Tnnfr for the Week notations, Ktc. The commit res of operators and miners of the chuylklll rog met during the week for the purpose of ascei i the average price of coal for the mouth ot vane and of fixing the rate or wages.

7 he average was found to be it per ton Tor the prevlotm thirty days, according to the honks xamlned, which, according to the decision of the umpire, would red nee the wages four pur cent, from the (9 7-fi per ton hauls. i tils rate la lower than the men expected, bufso far it appears unlikely tnat tncre will he any dlf-flculty on that account. Should another month show a still lower average, which ts probable, then It Is more than likely that there will be much discontent, though an actual stoppage at the present time Is not expected, If the majority of the men hve any say In the matter. To avert this calamity which the operators profess 1o fear, that class are stl calling upon the pur-chasers to come and buy now, saying that they are holding off IB expectation of still lower rates which are pronable for the summer from present appearances, the ultimate effect of which course would, however, be disastrous by creating in undue de-uiHnd and consequent high prices In the future. But It might be a question whether the purchasers are not now buying In their usual quantities at this time of the year, and whetner the operators do not otsire them to depart from their usual custom and purchane their winter's supply now lnitead of later in the season.

The result wnlch is feared Is a result of the action of the miners In suspending, and If lower prices come immediately by reason of it which is the thing that the operators fear more than the excessive demand of the latter part of the season, though they are urging the former upon ihe purchasers as a reason why, for their own benefit, they should purchase now the purchasers cannot reasonably be expected to put themselves very much out of the way to accommodate the miners and counteract the evil effects of their own work. The miners cannot expect that after doing so much Injury to the trade they are to go scot free, and never Know, when they are working, that a suspension had ever taken place. The situation In the Lehigh region remains substantially unchanged. A meeting of the W. B.

A. of the district was held during the week, when It was resolved to agree to a compromise. The men were Instructed to accept an advance of five per cent, on the offer of the operators and go to work. But this advance the operators refuse to give, saying that when they desired to compromise the miners would not. They now assert their Intention or holding to their terms during the whole season, ir necessary.

The market at this port is reported active, with a good demand at slightly advanced rates. Vessels afe not as plenty as last week. The following Is the complete summary of the trade for the past week, as reported for the Potts-Tllle Miners' Journal of to-day WEEK, TOTalk I WEEK. I TOTAL, Anthracite. T.

A Boat Rick oh thi Schuylkill.

Yesterday afternoon, at 6 o'clock, an Informal but exciting contest took place on the Schuylkill between two four-oared shells belonging to the Vesper and Malta Clubs. The shells were named the IdaUa and the Volant, the latter, belonging to the Vesper Club, being a very superior boat built by Elliot, of New York, and jUHt received from the builder. The crew of the Vesper's boat was as follows: Stroke, James Mlngus; No. H. Skinner; No.

8, F. V. Bonnaffon; Robert Mlngus. The Malta's boat was pulled by the following gentlemen: Stroke, J. L.

Illman; No. E. illman; No. 8, Anstln Street; Capt. P.

J. Iloffllglr. The Malta crew contended with one disadvantage In having to slightly alter the crew just previous to the rase, Mr. Robert Pharo who had Intended to take part, being prevented by Illness. Ills place was supplied by Mr.

Street. The Vesper crew were gotten together very hurriedly, and were unable to do much training, but, as the result shows, acquitted themselves very creditably. The course rowed was from Columbia Bridge to Turtle Kock. Mr. Parker, of the Quaker City Club, started the boats, the Volant, of the Vesper Club, saving the east side of the course and the IdaUa the west.

The boats kept very well together at first, but towards the close of the race the Volant gained rapidly, and passed the rock several lengths ahead of the Idalla. The time of the Volant was 9 minutes and 15 seconds. The Centennial Celebration of American Independence will be an event of transcendent Interest In the history of our country; and as It will be expected that the Historical Society of Pennsylvania should take some part In the ceremonies aud exercises which will mark that grand epoch, the society, on June 13, 1870, appointed a committee to co-operate with the public authorities In such manner as may be considered expedient and proper. Of this committee the Hon. James Robs Snowden Is chairman, and Colonel Sam.

B. Wylle Mitchell Secretary. At the meeting held at the hall or the Historical Society on Friday, the 16th the following resolution was unanimously adopted Resolved, That the chairman of this committee, at his discretion, put the committee In communication -with such of the public authorities as may be deemed expedient, with a view to the co-operation of the society in measures preparatory to the celebration herein refened to, should such authorities deem the co-operation of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania useful or desirable. Excitement in 8 an bom Stkkkt. Quite an excitement was caused about half-past 11 o'clock this morning by the appearance of an Intoxicated man, named James Meade, who stood on the steps of Ahern's saloon, Sansom street, below Eighth, nourishing a double-barrelled shot gun.

A large crowd of people had collected, and of course half a dozen wild stories were in circulation, not the least of which was one to the effect that Meade had shot a man, and some or the people professed to have teen the blood. High Constable Joun Curley happened to pass at the time, and stepping up In toe quietest Meade that he had better go Inside and put the weapon away. This request was met by such a profane answer that Mr. Curley promptly toon Meade In custody and locked blm up in the Central Station. The gun on being examined at the station was lound to be uncharged.

ATTEMPTED OUTRAGE BY A FATHER The Charge of an attempt to commit a terrible crime has been lodged agalust Johu W. Iiotfard, living at Fifteenth and Kater street. The charge Is preferred bv his daughter, a Ctrl of thirteen years, and who before Alderman Dallas testified that to the criminal assault upon her. She screamed and 'titer Moouey, of the First district, arrested, running down stairs, the unnatural father The wife of the accused gave testimony before the magistrate that her husband has fur some time past been continually abusing her, and the daughter made oath to the attempted outraw, whereupon Uoffard was sent to prison to await trial. Sent to Onio "Scottv." charged with the mar, der of Mr.

On Thursday last the Democratic members of both branches of Councils met In Common Council Chamber to nominate a candidate for Ouardlau of the Poor. Last week the Supreme Court, sitting at Har-rlsburg, appointed James Armstrong a member of the Board or Uuardlans, out It is questionable whether this appointment will stand, seeing that at thcr recent session of the Legislature an act was passed transferring the power of appointing the Guardians from the courts to councils. The caucus on Thursday was called to accept the provisions of this act, by nominating a candidate to represent the "minority" In Councils, and the gentleman selected was Dr. James Kent Gilbert. They overslaughed Mr.

Armstrong, who has been a hlghiy- respectea memoer oi me ooaru lor many years, it was he who started the agitation against the practice or selling the bodies of deceased pauper to medical schools a practice which gave to the Guar dians the certainly unpleasant title or "Board or Buzzards," ana which was eventually broken up. Next Wednesday afternoon the Republican members hold their caucus for the same purpose. Tits mortality of thi city.

Bunay One More. Court of Quarter Sessions Allison, P. J. The little schoolboy is taught the motto, "If at first yon dont succeed, Try, try again," which primary lesson has been well remembered by Mr. Hartnack and his lawyer, Mr.

Sldebotham. Not satisfied with the "ignoramus" endorsed by a former patrlotio but now defunct Grand Jury upon the indictment acciilng William M. Buna, the Register of Wilis, witn conspiracy to cnisei tne puouc out of a large sum of money, they came Into court this morning, and stating that the Grand Jury had ignored the bill without examining Speaker Strang, who was named as one of the witnesses for the prosecution, moved the judge to grant an oraer sending tne case into tne present Grand Jury for further consideration, It now being possible to ODtiun tne attendance ana testimony of Mr. Strang, the Legislature having adjourned. Notice of the application was served upon Mr.

Bunn, but be disdained to give it the slightest attention, and did not appear either in person or by counsel to resist this proceeding. Mr. Sldebotham, actuated by the Influence of his primitive adage, ottered to refer the Court to the a. B. prove that his applies ion was regular; but the Judge said he was familiar with the alphabet, and besides had a modern rule which was followed in all cases, and he would consider the matter until Monday next.

Extortion. Court of Common Pleas Judge Ludlow. Last week aQldavlts were filed In this court complaining that Deputy Sheriffs Coon, Mclntyre, aud Money had committed the offense of charging exorbitant fees for performing the duties of their oilioe, and John J. Ridg way, counsel for the Law Association, who bate undertaken to suppress this crying evil, moved the court for a rule on the Sheriff to show cause why these deputies shiuld not be dismissed. The Sheriff's counsel, Mr.

GUplu, made a technical objection that the proceeding should have been by petition Instead of affidavit ana rule; aud the eoHit, after considering the question, to-day sustained this point. Mr. Rldgway has prepared the petitions In accordance with this ruling, and the matter will be resumed next Monday. He Is making strenuous efforts to defeat the systematic course of plundering for manv years pursued by the servants of the public. and in so doing he has the support and good-will of the community.

Extradition. Yesterday afternoon, when Judga Ludlow had concluded the regular business of the day, he was called on to issue his warrant for the surrender of a prisoner to officers of the State of Ohio, under a re- in order to be tried in that Commonwealth or murder. This unfortunate man was Tom Scott, who for years has been a famous thief of the higher order, lie is about thlrty-tve years of age, five feet ten Inches In height, aad well proportioned. His hair Is dark brown, worn brushed cose to the head and sides or the forehead; bis beard is of the same color, quite fine, and allowed to grow all over his face, in the vain hope, no doubt, of concealing a large scar upon the left cueeg, whlcn nas auieu in betraying htm Into the bauds of a stern justice that seeks his life. His dress was that of a gentle man, ana ins countenance indicated what is wen known of him, that he is an Intelligent, shrewd, and daring desperado.

Ten years ago he was couvlcted In this city of burglary, and tbeu he wore the ominous scar upon bis cheek Having served his term of imprisonment, he remained here some time, constantly watched and suspected by the police auttio. rltles. He sought a new held of operations, aud In tie winter oi ieoi-oa was arresiea at sprlngaeia, Ohio, for the murder of a man named Daniel Hertzler. It was said the evidence against blm was conclusive. The murder was dons for plunder, and Tils life wonld pay the penalty.

Before the time fixed for his trial tie succeeded in escaping from prison. In February, 186S, since which time nothing was beard ol him until wlthia a few weeks past. For some time he bad been loitering about the neighborhood ol Math and Sanson streets, not daring to walk the streets In the ay-tlme, only venturing out undercover of night. Hopmathat he had almost been forgotten, heat length dared the light and took the fatal stroll. He attracted the eye of Lieutenant Flaherty, who offered to make him prisoner, but before he could accomplish his purpose was compelled to shoot the hunted outlaw, the ball taking effect Just below the left shoulder, prebably penetrating the lung.

The SprlagOeld authorities, upon receiving intelligence of the capture, hastened to claim the fugitive. Upon entering the court room he seemed to suffer from his wound, but was otherwise calm and collected. Judge Ludlow, with that regard for the rights of every prisoner which has been a prominent characteristlcjof his administration of criminal law, said he would not surrender the prisoner nntll he was fnliy identified as the man who wss indicted at Springfield for the murder of Daniel Hertzler. Then followed a scene that wss novel and harrowing. The Chief of Police at Springfield was sworn, and after looking intently at the prisoner said he believed him to be the man.

Scott looked him steadily in the face but produced a quick motion of bis features, which was a futile attempt to embarrass. The witness at once recog. nlzed the scar upon the cheek, which marked him as the murderer or Hertzler. Scott asked hire what was the color or the Springfield prisoner's eyes, and being answered were grev, he lowered bts heavy brows and said quickly, "Mine, gentlemen, are blue; I wish you all to observe." The next witness wss Mr. Donovan.

who was City Marshal or Springfield In February, 1868. This man had but one eye, which seemed In keenness equal to a dozen in most'rnen. He gave one short, steady look at Scott, and turning to the Judge said emphatically, 'That's the man. I know him by his forehead, his nose, bis general appearance, and the scar oh his cheek." Judge Loulow "Are there anv other necullaritles by which yon Identify him Witness "Well, our prlsouer had India Ink marks npnn his arms; on one arm a figure or the Ooddess or Justice; I tnink mat wason the right arm on the left was a figure of the crucifixion; I have not examined this man to see whether he had Bach marks." Here Scott's expression was one of ntter despair. Judge Ludlow "Prisoner, bare your arms Scott did so, and there were the identical figures, and even at this dread moment the tricky nature or the man exhibited Itself, for standing in the dock at a distance from the Judge and witnesses, he said: "Here are those marks, sir, bnt the Ooddess of Liberty is on the left arm and the crucifix on the left," which was a falsehood, the stains being pre cisely ss Donovan naa stated.

The Judge instructed the officers to be watchful but humane to him, made out his warrant and delivered him to the Ohio authorities. Handcuffs were put upon him, and.the man was led out as a beast to tne slaughter. DIED. (For additional Deatht set fourth pags.) TJamm. At Poughkeensle.

Tne suicide ef Mr. Matthew Wostnonsky, at No. 478 South Canal street, yesterday afternoon, was one of the most peculiar ones that has happened for some time. Deceased was a Hotiemtau saloonkeeper. He was aged about forty-six years, and had only himself and wife to support, their only child be'ng married to a worthy young mechanic.

A few weeks ago one of the West-side policemen carried to Mr. Wotnonsky a circular printed in the tier-man language, ordering him to keep olosed his saloon on Sunday. This was signed by W. Kennedy, Chief of Police. The poor man worried over this order a great deal.

His business through the week did not amount to much, and it was only on the Siobath day that he managed to make anything In dealing out lager-beer and bad liquors. Once he said to bis wife "What can I do 7 I can't make my living, so I will have to shoot myself." The wife expostulated with him, and for the time being quieted his excited feelings. Yesterday morning, when he had opened his saloon, he picked up the paper and read something which made him perfectly furious. He laid down the paper, exclaiming "That's my last." aad went Into his bedroom. Taking a revolver from the bureau, be tried to shoot himself, but before be could ao-compllsh bis Intention his wife interfered and took the pistol from his hands.

She then made him promise to attempt nettling of the kind again. For several hours he sat In the saloon, utterly refusing to speak to any one. Finally be said to his wife that be would go In and lie down. A moment later she heard tne report 01 a pistol, and when she rushed into the bed-room she discovered to her horror that be had shot himself. The ball had entered over the right ear, and lodged In the brain.

Several physicians were summoned, but they were of no use. In less than one hour the man was dead.

Despatches from St. Petersburg to the Russian mbassy at Washington state that orders have been recently sent to Cronstadt to hasten the work In fitting out the naval division which Is to eajort the Grand Duke Alexis to the United States. His Imperial Highness has concluded to embark in the Amiral General, lroa-plated steam frigate, instead of the Swetlana, as at nrt Intended, winch change or programme will give an additional vessel to the imperial convoy. The Amiral General Is said to be one of the Cnest ships in the Russian navy, and Instructions have been given to have her cabins anl Btaterooms fitted up in the most elegant and luxurious manner, befitting the accommodation of the Illustrious traveller and the large suite of noblemen and gentlemen who accompany him. It has been erroneously stated that the young Russian Grand Duke was the third son of the Kmpe-peror.

He Is the second son; the Alexander, or Prince Imperial, Is the nrst; Grand Duke Alexis next: and then comes the youthful and handBome Prince Vladimir, who is now enjoying the hospitalities of the royalty of Kngland at Sandring-ham House and Windsor Castle. Though of the blood imperial, the Grand Duke is said to have been compelled by his Imperial fatner to pursue the regular curriculum prescribed at the Imperial Manue Academy and It Is also said that the young Prince has not only manifested a great disposition for the acquirement of learning, but has displayed more aptitude than one generally finds In the pampered persons of Prince pupils. Those who have recently seen him speak of him as a fine-looking, tall, soldierly-appearing young gentleman, with a very dignified aud commanding presence, though yet quite young. He eschews the ceremonies and pomp of Court as much as Jttusslan etiquette, which is very exacting, will allow him. Prince Alexis wears but one decoration, and is generally seen dressed In the nmform conforming to his rank In the Imperial Navy.

The fact of his being a Grand Duke of the Empire will not, It is said, have the effect of hastening his promotion in the Russian navy, where merit alone is rewarded with Increased rauk. He now holds the position of commander in the navy, and has won it solely by strict application to his studies and his own Individual exertions, unassisted by any one save, of course, the promptings of the best talent in the land employed In teaching him. Recent letters from St. Petersburg represent that great livalry seems to exist among the young Russian noblemen desirous of joining the suite of the Grand Duke In his voyage to America. The Russian papers are full of the preparations that are being made both at St.

Petersburg and at the naval depot at Cronstadt, from which port, as is well known, the Imperial frigate and her convoy will salL Sew York Times, to-day. jrfTTJ' STEAMBOAT splendid steamboat JOHN A.

Bat, while we hold in high esteem those who administer to the last wants of our loved ones, we ere compelled to differ with many of them in treating THROAT and LUNG DISEASES.

Dr. L. Q. C.VISHARTS 41 THEORY." His Remedies Cure. First.

Not by stopping cough, but by loosening and assisting nature to throw off the unhealthy matter collected about the throat and bronchial tabes, causing irritation and cough. Second. Most Throat and Lung Remedies are composed of anodynes, which allay the cough for a while, but, by their constringing effects, the fibres become hardened, and the unhealthy fluids coagulate, and are retained in the system, causing disease beyond the control of our most eminent physicians. Third. The Pine Tree Tar Cordial, with its assistants, are preferable, because they remove the cause of irritation of the mucous membrane and broncial tubes, assisting the lungs to act and throw off the unhealthy secretions and purify the blood, thus scientifically mating the cure perfect.

il Voice from the People. A Cure ot Seventeen Years Standing of Painful Buffering. HOOPER JOLLY, of Philadelphia, do certify that for seventeen years I was aflllcted with, Dyspepsia, aad what I assert la well known by many re-spectacle persons of Dorchester county, Maryland. Eavlng tried the best Physicians and every medl-cine I beard of, but of no effect, I was Induced to call at Dr. WISHART'S Office, and, after examination, was pronounced to have Chronlo Dyspepsia.

I procured his Great American Dyspepsia Puis and Pine Tree Tar Cordial. I now can recommend it for the care of Dyspepsia and Nervous Diseases. HOOPER JOLLY, Pastor Zoar M. E. Philadelphia.

Yon will be a Dead Man in Less than Three Years. Bach was the Judgment of my physician, after a careful examination. He said by continual preaching and exposure I had brought on bronchitis, and he advised me to stop preaching. I then pat myself under medical treatment, which did me but little good. My throat was so swollen that breathing was very difficult.

It frequently opened, and then I found relief for a time. I tried aU kinds of patent medicines, none of which did me any good. Passing through Harrisburg, 1 called on a lady friend. I m. formed her of my affliction.

She said, "I was affected In the same way, and none of the doctor could cure me. I tried Dr. Q. C. WISHART'S Pine Tree Tar Cordial; took a few bottles of it now yon see me as I am, cured! at the wash-tub twice a week.

I would advise yoa to try it," I went Immediately to the drug store and procured tt, and I thank God I am now able to preach the Gospel. I now use It more as a preventive than a cure. JOHN P. LEIB, Ex-Pastor Evangelical Chu rch, Germantown, Pa. I Had to Yield my Prejudice at Last.

4 I was prejudiced to any advice or medicine that did not come through my family physician. My boy, of three years old, had a fall, and a worm came from him. Fearing he might have worms, I went to oar Druggist, and he gave me a box of Dr. L. Q.

C. WlbUaKT'S Worm Sugar Drops. When I gave them te my child I said "This is humbug" bat, to my surprise, In less than a day and a night he discharged forty worms, one fourteen Inches long.
