All day long, until the hour of the funeral, the trains brought large delegations from every part of the State, and it Is doubtful whether the city ever had such a concourse ot prominent people within its gates except on a day cf celebration.

X Grudge Dating Back to the Strike of 1877 Empty Coal Cars on Their Way Back to the Mines-Minor Kotes. FbilaiiXLi eia, December 27. A spescial from Beading says: The strike has developed the existence of unpleasant 'sentiment be tween the Knights of Labor and the Broth erhood of Locomotive Engineers. The latter, it is reliahly stated, ottered to furnish all the men that might be needed to take out trains There are ITClengineers in this city and vicinity, all Brotherhood men. who were discharged by the former I resident of the Heading Hiilroad, Frankin B. Gowen. Their places were taken by non-union men, and who belong to the Knights of Labor. The latter were then known as "scabs,' and for a long time there was a bitter leellnz in the communitv against them, ana especially as the riots during the strike ot 1S77 in this city resulted in an attact by tne r ourtn i;giment. N. O. P.. in which about a dozen men were killed and about seventy-five or eight wounded. The families which suf fered, and their sympathizers, have never forgiven the men who took the places of the Brotherhood engineers. All the engineers employed on the Heading Railroad, prior to the trouble of 1S77, are being heard from. Tbey desire to return to their "first love," a&d were anxious xor sweet re venge. In an interview with an Inquirer reporter to-night a Knight of Labor said that the strike on the Heading road was forced by the Heading management as part of an organized plan of the Pennsylvania, Head ing and Jersey Central roads to break up the Knights of Labor. There was great excitement at the headquarters of the Executive Committee when the statement of President Corbin and the receivers be came public. Members of the committee declared that they had been induced to return to work on false pretenses, and that the company had been trying for aome time to precipitate a conflict with the Knights of Labor. Messages were sent to the different assemblies to convene at once to consider the matter. Lack of Syo-ntaneltj, Philadelphia, December 27. There was a lack of spontaneity In tbe return to work of the Heading nauroad company's em ploy es at the wharves of Port Hichraond this morning. This was not due to an unwillingness on the part of the men, but delay in the circulation of the general or der to return, coupled with the fact that the diBacected were rather late in putting in an appearance at their usual points of rendensvous. However, what little coal there was on the tracks was enough, and more, too, for many had to be put to work at odd jobs until aome of the side-tracked fuel came down the road. Superintendent J. O. Keim was at his post of duty at an early hour. lie received the men pleasantly as they put in an appearance. As a general rule tne men wouia express satisfaction at the iappy prospect of an amicable adjust ment. A few, however, af tr reaching the waives and finding the non-union men, who had teen employed in their absence, there at work, turned about and walked on. Late in the afternoon an incident oc curred which came near causing all those at work to leave the wharves. During the night two colliers, the Pottsville and Battlesnakf, steamed up to their piers, and tbeir crews, who are also members of layer l ront Assembly, Knights ot Labor, were in total ignorance of the situation surrounding them. When they aross this mornin? end learned the cause of the idle ness in the scenes that are wont to be so busy, all hands, fourteen in number, re fused to obey orders, and were promptly discharged. This incident was misinterpreted by the Knights at work, and consid erable explanation waa required to straighten matters out. Empty Coal Cars. EzArixo, December 27. So promptly were the coal cars taken on to Port Klchmontl and unloaded that to-night the first empty coal trains passed through Heading bound lor the coal regions. The most ex citing scenes of the strike were witnessed this afternoon when about twenty-live old Brotherhood engineers who were obliged to leave the company's employ in 17 were given engines, !and!pexmanent posi tions. They took the places of engineers who either failed to report because they live too far away or had refused to take out engines and were peremptorily dis charged. Every man who had during the rast week refused to obey orders, or who had left his post because of tbe Kalghta of Labor orders, was refused empiovment. There were quite a large number oz these. and some x of the appeals made to get back were pitiful to behold. Non-union men. ready to take the strikers' places, filled Heading to day from the neighboring towns ty the nun area. Trouble vt Polo Alto, roTTsviLiK, Pa., December 27. From some cause the order to the Heading strik eis at this point to return to work did not reach here nntil the middle of the fore noon, and when the crews belonging to the Palo Alto terminus reported for duty they found that several trains had been sent out with new crews, and they were informed that, under the orders of Manager McLeod, they could not be taken on. A meeting of Assembly 7C89 was called. The assembly was declared locked out. The Port Richmond Assembly was called on to stand by them, and an appeal waa made to Superintendent Wet gard to countermand the action of the Palo Alto dispatcher. A committee sent to Philadelphia to coner with Superintendent Sweigard ia reference to resumption of the strikers, returned to tina city this evening and reported that Mr. Sweigard had Insisted upon the peremptory discharge of the committee who first waited upon him with reference) to the Tort Elchmo nd trouble, together with the five crews who refused to handle the flour cars. The committee contented to this and then asked a guarantee that all other strikers would be re-em-Jdoyed. This Superintendent Sweigard reused and the conference abruptly terminated. This report greatly Incensed the meeting, and as a result the committee left here to-night for all points south as far as Philadelphia and north to Tamaqua, Ehamokin and Mabony Plane, to appeal 1? J-he Jocal astempUes to itand by the dis-

charged strikers, audit is ex Dected that a

general tie-op along the whole line will be reinaugurated to-morrow. A meeting of the Heading Hauroaa emDloves' convention, composed of represent atives of railroad employes and miners at Beading coal and Iron companies' colliers, will assemble in Heading on Thursday, at Which i. is intimated by leading Knights of Labor here that unless a settlement ia ie:ched the miners will be ordered to strike, and the passenger train crews called out. Intense interest is felt here in tue developments of to-morrow morning, but there are many who are disinclined to believe that the Knights along the line who have been re-employed will consent to strike again. The Twead leg coal miners convention to consider wagea for next year was in session nntil a late hoar without reaching a de cision. When they heard of the position tazen dv tne company towaraine siriaiug railroad employer, they became angry and adjourned until lo morrow, promising to take aggressive action. GLADSTONE'S JOURNEY. Kentlth Liberals fresent Ulm With an Address While at Dover. Lobpon. December 27. Mr. Gladstone arrived at Dover to cay on his way to the contlEent A small crowd assembled at the depot. Mr. Gladstone was greeted with hoots. A number of roughs outside the depot threw snow-balls at him. none of which, however, struck him. A delegation of Kentish Liberals waited upon htm at the town hall and presented him with an address. Mr. Gladstone, replying to the address presented to him at Dover by tbe Liberal delegates, referred to the uncertain charac ter of Lord Salisbury's declaration in refer ence to fair trade, and said they indicated, as far as"the majority in Parliament is concerned, that free trade is insecure. He relied upon the masses of the people to op pose a return to protection, ins coming session did not promise well for the conntry, If it were true that the gref.t measure of the session a local government bill would not be Introduced until April, the government would not inflict an undisguised mockery on the country. The last was a dark session, but this would be darker unless something was done to alleviate the situation in Ireland. The darkest blot upon Parliament was the act now in operation effecting the civil rights of the Irish. The Liberals were charged with interfering with the administration of the law. What he was really trying to do was to retard the Government's destructive policy of perversion of the law. It was well for them that they were on the right side ot the channcL If the Christian Knowledge Society In seeking to promote justice, mercy and truth, were to publish in Ireland a book applying those prirciples to that unhappy country, they would be subject to criminal prosecution. Lord Salisbury talked about the consolidation of the Empire while pursuing a policy of national disruption. How, the speaVer asked, could that be a policy of consolidation, which disregarded centuries of national tradition and opposed the will of four out of five millions of Irish people? Ireland only continued within the bounds of msderaticn because she knew that she had the sympathy of friends In England. So long as her moderation continued, so long would the sympathy be continued. Not long, the speaker said, could any government face a unanimous people. With the single exception of the Belfast Council, all the election authorities sided with home rule. The Foreign Import Govern ment stood alone. The Liberals' terms of minority in Parliament would cease at the first election. Their appeal lay with the country. The party had never inscribed on its banner the name ot a cause without carrying it through. Ilaving taken up the cause cf Ireland, the cause would as suredly triumph. (Cheers.) Roumanian Commerce. BccnAKFST, December 27. The Chamber of Deputies hS passed a bill providing lot the formation of the Roumanian Danube Navigation Company. A proposal to pur chate the thips with money derived from the harbor dues reveaue was abandoned on account of the opposition of the powers. ice pcrchfcße will be made from funds de rivrd from a government loan. In a secret sitting of the Chamber of Deputies, Mr. Bratiano, the Prime Minister, alluded to the serious aspect of afiairs abroad, and said that it would force him to demand before the close of the session an extra credit of $12,000,000 on account of armaments. The Senate passed an amendment to the recruiting bill ander the operation of which the number of recruits will be largely increated In 1SSS. Natural Cas for Smelting. Fittsbuio, December 27. Jacob T. Wainwrlght, a well known metallurgical engineer of this city, has for years had great faith in the idea that natural gas could be utilized In furnace cupolas for ordinary casting which requires great heat in the smelting process. With the co-operation of David Carlin, manage? of the Iron and Lead Works of this city. Mr. Walnwrlght haj succeeded in demonstrating the success of his principle and to-day had his first castings from a model gas furnace. Walnwright's furnace will be the means of dispensing with 30 per cent cf the coke now needed for ordinary furnaces. Pennsylvania Mine Troubles. Pittbbcrg, December 27. W. T. Lewis, Master Workman of the Miners' Assembly of the Knights of Labor, arrived in this city today to inquire into the trouble among railroad miners in Weitern Pennsylvania. The operators, who are paying the Columbus scale, state that they will not pay it after January 1, as a large number of other operators refuse to pay it.Mr. Lewis came on to try and settle the matter without a strike. The Scotthaven miners say they will not come ont unless they are sr ported by the National Assembly. The trouble among miners is so complicated now that it is impossible to surmise what the outcome will be.

The Mew Coko Combine. riTTSBrao, December 20. The coke operator's meeting to-morrow will probably resuit in the formation of a stronger syndicate than the one recently disrupted, Inasmuch as the leading Independent operators signified their willingness to become mem bers of the new organization. The P. C, Frick Coke Company will not be included in the new syndicate, but no opposition la expected from this firm. It has large contracts with the Carnegie's, who own a majority of the stock in the Frick company, and for this reason it is said the Frick company will maintain an Independent position. It is further reported that Andrew Carnegie refused to enter into a combination with the other coke operators, because It might not be convenient for him to carry out the agreement in case of a strike. During the last strike he wsa placed in a position where he had to have coke, his steel interests being greater than his coke interests, and he could well afford to sacrifice a few hundred dollars In coke road make fit back in his steel mills.

CONSULAR REPORTS

Iiqniriei Info the Industries md Products of Other Conntr:. Amount of Wool Shipped From the Argentine Republic Dacrcuin?. The Linen, Lice ind Hosiery Industries in Ireland ftidtha Wtge. the Woolen Manufactures A Review ot the European Cereal Crop India's Wheat Production aiinor Kotes. Wasuikotow, December 27. Consul Baker, In a report to the Department of Btate in regard to the wool production of the Argentine Hepublic, sajs that the amount of fine wools shipped from there to the United States annually is becoming less. The cause of this, be says, is in great part due to the fact that United States tariff unintentionally, but very hd justly, discriminates against such wools from the Argentine Hepublic in favor of those from Australia, New Zealand, etc , our system of computing the duties making no allowance whatever for the fact that the dirt and grease on the wools of the Argentine Hepublic Is fully 70 per cent, greater than those of the former countries, this excess of dirt and grease being required to pay the full tariff rates for wool. The only wools from the Argentine Hepublic, which it is now possible to ship under our tarifij are the "criolta," or long carpet wools ox tne lrovince of Cordoba, which are shipped from Kossrlo, and which amount to about 10,000,000 pounds annually. IRISH INDUSTRIES. Consul J. Svhoenhof. of Tanstall, Eng land, in his report to the Department of State upon the economic conditions ol ireland, treats upon the linen, hosiery ana lace manufactures of that country. He finds that the earnings of the people employed in the linen mills in Ulster are far below those of any classes employed in the textile branches in England. Mill regulations and working time, of course, are the tame for the whole kingdom. Flax breakeis, men who have to do very exhaustive work, earn from 15s. to 20 per week : backlers, from 18s.to 23a; spinners and girls, from ös, to 10.; half timers, boys, 5s; girls, 4a, and weavers (mostly women) tending two looms, from 12s. to 15s. Demask weavers, however, the ConsuJ says, cam a few more shillings per week. In this connection, the Consul reports, that the linen trade sutlers frcm depression. This iapartly due to the fact that not so much linen is used, owing to the great cheapening in cotton manufacturing, as was tbe case in former times, and partly, also, because the use of brown linen for ladies' dresses has ceased, through change of attoclation. principally through great reaction, following Immense expansions ia the wake of the American war and the cotton famine consequent thereto. In regard to wcolen industries, the consul notes tbe following current changes: For men, from 12s to 14s. The latter fig ure is about the limit of best men. Spin ner girls. s to 10s; children from 5s to Vi: and weavers from 10s to 12s. The mill employing about 750 hands pays out about 400 per week In wages. The consul says that with the advantages of cheap labor and great eagerness for finding opportun! ties to work all over Ireland, with an Intelligent population quick to take up and letin all manipulations to which they are set, with - tbe excellent quality of the wool which the Irish sheep produces, one should expect to find quite a nourishing in dustry there. Hut there was no more than half a dczen prosperous mills in all Ire land, employing in all but a few thousand herds, end a great many mills closed up lor wantol orders. With reference to the hosiery manufac turcrs, tbe consul states that the girls and embroiderers earn fromL7to 8a per week a teat and nice employment. It is dif ficult, however, to keep them at home when they have become practical, and are well trained to tbe work, as they are very quick at leaving and going where they can earn lis per week. XVROrEAN CEXKALS. Edmund Jossen. Consul-General at Vi enra. has transmitted to the Department of State certain data gathered from the reports of the international seed and grain convention, recently held In that city, relutivA to ihn rendition nf Knrnrxtan fterea) crops. In Austria-Hungary the yield of Wheat lor tne year ibc is estimated at iu,000.000. bushels, an increase of nearly 2o per cent over the average yield of that country, while 125,000,000 bushels is the estimated yield ol rye, also a consiaeraoie In RnwiiA. rve has vielded an average crop, barley is of excellent quality, but the crop of oats is poor, and the prospect of potatoes not very promising. In the Scandinavian countries tbe average amount of wheat is produced, bat rye and oats fall far below the average. The wheat crop of Italy is poor and the import demand of the country for tbe cereal will amount to about SO, 000,000. The corn crop is about average, and the country will have a surplus for export The wheat crops of Switzerland and Holland are above the average, while that of northern Hnssia is below. The wheat crop of France is large, but a considerable quantity of wheat must be imported to meet the noma demand, as the quantity in store is very limited. In Great Britain and Ireland an average wheat crop is expected. The total yield is estimated at from 9,500,000 to 10.000.000 quarters, so that after deducting tbe seed, ,500,000 to 9,000,000 quarters will be left for home consumption, and the importation of from 16,500,000 to 17,000,000 quarters will be required. The English wheat in store is believed to be very nearly exhausted, and the foreign wheat in store in England quite limited. India's whiat crop. In British India the yield of wheat for 1887 is estimated at 6. 300. Gt5 tons. From January 1 to June 30, 1887, British India exported to Europe 9,679,510 hundred weights of wheat Tks exportation of certain qualities of hops from Europe to the United States has of late increased to a considerable extent The increase from Austria-Hungary alone during the year 1M over the previous year amounted in declared value to $00,257. The total amount of bops exported from Austria-Hungary to the United States in 18SG amounted in declared value alone to $188,915. Fbilbtvillb, December 25. Speoail. Mrs. Sarah O.

X. Logan, of St- Paul's Catholic Church, this city, is In hard lack. Sasday evening after the labors of Christmas, he met with a party of frienda and returned home about 9 o'clock, one of his parishioners accompanying him. The latter insisted on entering the house, to which the reverend gentleman unfortunately assented, and it was then that he was relieved of his pocket-book containing $16C. Father Lo5 an is positive in the belief that he was rugged, and equally positive that his parishioner, whom he names, took his money. It was the money of the church, having been contributed principally in aid of Us charitable funds, and its loss will be made good by the priest, even though he does not succeed in recovering it. This he is ill able to do, as he is possessed of a very limited share of this world's goods. Going to Manaiag's Funeral, Naw York, December 23.

A Tempest in a Tea Pot. Coshek, December 27. Special. The celebrated Defrees shade-tree cas, which has caused no small amount of talk here, will come up for trial this week. The history of the care is as follows : Last fall the City Council ordered the sidewalks in the business portion of the city to be widened considerably. In front of the old Defrees property, on the comer of Market and Vifih streets, stands a sturdy maple. The increased width cf the walk placed this tree right in the middle of it, while before, it was cuside. Now comes the Street"CommIssioner with his "little ax" and saw, and proposes to cut it down. This Mr. Joseph Defrees very strongly objected to, end finally commanded Mr. Street Commissioner to stay the proceedings for a day or two. Mr. Defrees appeared before the Mayer's Court and the Council, but both said that the tree should go. "Printer's ink" was freely used on both eides, but proved fruitless for Defrees. He then resorted to the Circuit Court, and was granted an injunction against the city forbidding them to tonch the tree. This was withdrawn last week, and now the parties to the case will cross lances before the Judge of the Circuit. Mr. Defrees sajs if he is defeated he will carry the case to the Supreme Court, He claims that tLe ciiy is using him unfairly, as there are m&ny trees and sign posts around the city In the same position which the "city dads" do not touch. He does not propose to be the butt of such unjust prosecution. Much joking is being indulged in at the expense of both sides, and no'one knows where it will ail end. The time and money spent on the case, in proportion to the small ness of the issue at stake, reminds one of the two old farmers who mined themselves financially fighting over tbe skin of a fox, which died exactly on a lice between their two farma. Koughed Through the Crowd. Chicago, December 22. An Incoming Baltimore and Ohio train plowed at full speed through the crowd boarding the Illinois suburban train at Vau Buren station last evening. Fully 200 people were thronging the tracks at the time, and without a whistle or note of warning, the train was upon them. In an instant Miss Lot- -tie Laundervilie was thrown through the air? a distance of fifteen or twenty feet and fatally injured. Immediately after the accident the Baltimore and Ohio train backed up, and had barely stopped when the. cab was boarded by an infuriated crowd of persons who had narrowly es-' caped death. The engineer was roughlr seized, end cries of "lynch him, kill him,1 ' were ahouted from hundreds of throat-" Just in time to prevent the crowd fror executing its threats, two Central detii' officers arrived and rescued the cowertn; r man from the throng of avengers. The engineer was ouickly spirited sway, an-1 hia name could not be learned. Ther seems to be no excuse for the accident The Baltimore aad Ohio train was going at full speed, when it should be at a stand till. There was no sound of bell or whistle to warn tbe crowd of Lome-goers ot ap- . roaching danger. A rather aad Son Badly lajured. - Dtlvhi, December 22. Special David" T. HUderbrand, a prominent farmer residing five miles east of this city, and a young ton were struck this morning by a westbound freight train on the Wabash road, at a crossing near town.
