The operator* still declare 7 will bold out, but the chances are thoy 'will noon come to terms when see neighboring mines in full imtlon. Thus far there ha* been no ne here, aud the greatest hardship been the outrageous advance in 'ie demanded by the dealer, and from
!ch
there wa* no escape by the pursers. The only threatened trouble been down in Sullivan county, »ere the proprietors undertook to log In about forty Polanders to take
Coal and handle it after it came from 16 miner*' hand*. This work baa been ne L.» the farmer* before, and they Ejected to having their place* taken by ported laborers, so they turned out tnasse to enter a protest.

The coroner had a busy time of it yesterday, no less than three cases demanding his attention. William Brown, a
waiter at Nicolai's took a dose of arsenic Thursday night and went to bed with it, saying nothing about it for several hours afterward, but it was then too late to do anything fcr him, and he died in great pain. He was thirty-five years old, single, and was suffering from an incurable disease, which caused him to take his own life. The nest case was that of Kate Hines, who took a dose of "Rough on Rats" Thursday evening and died about three o'clock yesterday morning. She has been of week mind for a long time and has been an inmate of the insane asylum. She disappeared from home a week ago and was traced to St. Mary's where she remained until her return Thursday night. She was fiftytwo years old and leaves a husband and five children. The last case was that of Mrs. Bridget Shea, a widow, 60 years old, who was found dead in her bed yesterday morning at her home on Thir-teenth-and-a-half street. Her death was caused by heart disease. She leaves two sons.
In September last a woman named Frances Kabbes was arrested at the instigation of E. H. Bindley, charged with stealing from bis residence on south Fifth street jewelry valued at $700. On a preliminary examination before Justice Wildy she was bound over to await the action of the grand jury, and a few days later was released on bond. The grand jury adjourned last Saturday without returning an indictment, and on Monday the accused woman brought suit in the circuit court against E. H. Bindley, claiming $10,000 damages for malicious prosecution. From the time of hor arrest Mrs. Kabbes stoutly maintained her. innocence, aud beyond the fact that she was employed iu the house as a servant at the time of tho robbery, and was, or bad been, in the room where the jewelry was kept, there has never been anything to show that she was the guilty party. A day or two before the Bindley robbery the residonce of J. I). Bigelow, on south Sixth street, was robbed of jewelry in a similar manner.

Tho country assessor continues his work with unabated vigor. Yesterday ho received from Snlllvnn county a list of mortgages held by residents of Vigo on property down thore, which foots up total $."0,000. This makes $200,000 which he has found in adjoining coun ties which had not been assessed, aud which ought to have been returned for taxation here. Since the board of equalization adjourned Mr. Erney has added more than $-100,000 to the list of taxable*. The witnesses subpoenaed boforo tho board of equalization cost the county tiUt.lO for sheriff's fees. Fortunes could be made by buying some people at their actual value, and selling them at their estimated worth, but much more could be made by buying people at their sworn valao for purposes of taxation, and soiling them at their cash assets.
