d , Jan. 27. The foreign striking
miners along the Panhandle railroad arc
rioting In the vicinity of Mansfield , Pa. , nnd
eorloiH trouble Is apprehended. Sheriff
UlchardK was notified this morning that the
Httuition was critical and he Immediately
loft for the Rccno with twonty-flvo deputies.
Others will follow him later.
The foreigners are in an ugly frame of
mind because the English-speaking minors
returned to worit at the reduced rate and
they are determined to brim * them Out
again , Between 00. . ) and -100 minors , mostly
Hungarians , assembled near Woodvll lea bout
daybreak and , nrmcJ with revolvers , clubs
nnd stones , marched on the mines now In
operation. Armstrong's works wore first
visited and the miners compelled to llco for
their lives. The rioters next went to
Stcon'H and to Orvllle , where the men were
also driven out. At 10 o'clock they marched
on the works of the Pittsburg Fuel com
pany at Tom's Kuti. After forcing the men
to leave , the rioters destroyed the tipple
unit derailed a number of cars. Tney are
now said to bu marching ou tno Block Coal
company's works.
It is said a number of persons wcro In
jured , but as far us could bo learned no otio
was Killed.
A dispatch from Federal. Pa. , says the
riotous Hungarians reached there about 11
o'clock and attacUcd the mines of tiic
Chartlors Blok Coal company. The work
ing miners were assaulted with stones and
clubs , and several were seriously Injured ,
The check weighman , whoso naino was not
learned , was uadly beaten and had to run for
his life. After compelling the men to leave
the mines the mob wrecked the cars and
damaged thu tippirt.
Word was received at the sheriff's ofl'co '
here shortly after noon requesting addi
tional deputies , and a largo posse wan dis
patched on the tirs t train. Owing to the
poor facilities for communication news from
tlio scone of the trouble Is meagre.
At ri.'i p. m. Sheriff Uichards was asked
for deputies at Bridgcvillo , a short distance
from Manslleld. A mob of 'JOO or ! WO men
was reported as stopping work nt all the
mines and terrorizing everybody. The
sheriff is arming deputies as rapidly as pos
sible and will send seventy-five or 100 men
out at once.

Something Hko a ti'iartcr of a century ago ,
Frederick Schnoll came to this city and in
vested his money in real estate. The nest
eg was not a largo one , hut it continued to
* * * grow with the city , and it had not been' for
some outside speculations , at the time of his
death 'ho ' , wouli ( have'been a millionaire.
i2ven figuring iu these speculations ,
when ho died , December 11,1803 , his wealth
was estimated to roach the thousands , con
sisting of money in the bank , notes secured
on real estate and city lots.
The old man was 81 years of ago and for
some time prior to the date heretofore re
ferred to , had roomed at the corner of Thlr
tecntti and Jackson streets , preferring to
stay there instead of residing with his chil
dren , of whom there were seven , who lived
in the southern part of the city and in South
Omaha.
Some years ago Schnell mot Uobort Prless ,
a butcher and siiloon keeper , whoso place of
business was near Fort Omaha , and even
tually the two men becaino qulto chummy ,
so much so that during the latter part of
iast November the old man was Induced to
take up his bed anil remove to tbo Prloss
residence , where ho remained until lie died.
The children , several of whom are com-
fortahly situated , had time and again offered
the old man a home , but each tlmo ho had
refused , saying that ho proposed to takocaro
of himself so long ns ho could keep upon him
foot. The y know where ho had been roe
Ing and kn ° w that he was in good health , so
they wcro not worried over tbo fact that ho
wns staying alone in the Thirteenth street
block.
On December 11 the children read in THE
Bnr. that their father was dead and that ho
had died at the residence of Uobert Prless in
the extreme northern end of the citv
Shortly after being Informed of the
death of the old man , they wont
utter the Comae , ns Pricsj was willing
to have it buried nt their expense. After
ttio season of mourning had passed , a search
for tli property was made , and then H was
discovered that two days before his death
Frederick Schnoll had willed every ponnv
of his estate to Robert Prless. In duo time
the will was filed for probate , and that
started the light. The case was continued
until yesterday In order toallow both sides an
opportunity to don their lighting garments
When the case wns called in Judge Baxter's
court , Prio.ss went upon the stand nnd
Milled that ho know that the old mun bud
considerable property , tliat ho did not got
along wi-lt with his children , and tliat a few
days before his ncath ho was induced to re
move from bis Thiravnth street room.
Jloth Pness and his wife insisted that thov
did not imluco the old man to make the will ,
flitting off the children , averring that his
action was of his own volition.
When thn other side taiscs the stand , the
witnesses declare that they will prove to
Iho satisfaction ot the court that Pness
know that the old man had but a few days
tolivo , and that they thought by getting him
their dutches , and poisoning his mind
ngalnst his children , ho anil his wife would
easily secure all of the property by having
it beqticathod to them , and that there woulu
n-M-or be- any questions asked. In addition
to this , they point to the fact that the will
was executed only two days prior to the
( leathertheir father , and declare that at
that tlmo the old nun wan not in his right
mind aud did not know what ho was doing.

The proposed agreement would probably
dourivo the Union Pacifio of much Puget

The San , I'lnto Uit : War.
George Ady , general agent of the passen
ger department of the Union Pacific at Denver -
ver , came in Friday night with tno ofilcials of
the Union Pacilie , Denver & Gulf. Mr. Ady
was non-committal when aslted about Mr.
TrumbuU'8 ability to make th'j roads pay.
"We are not worrying so much over what
the Union Pacific will do with the Gulf as
to what the Gulf will do with the Union
Paoillo. "
Asked as to the correctness of the rumor
that Mr. Trumbult had tendered him the
general passenger , agency of the Gulf , Mr.
Ady said : "Mr. Trumbull did ask mo to
take oh'irgo of the road , which I stated I
would do if it could be dona in conjunction
with the Union Paeitlc.but would have to rc-
selvo consent from headquarters. The matter -
tor ran along for sotpo little time , when Mr.
Trumbull stated ho would have to opera to
the department indcpendcnt-of theUnlon Pa-
jitic. As promptly as I could I slated ho would
liavo to look elsewhere , which ho did. Tno
idcasantcst relations are mainjalned bo-
iween the Union Pacific and the Gulf at
Denver. Mr. Wild and I cor.sult as to mat-
lorsof detail , but boyoud this wo ineot but
leldom. "
Talking of tho' telegram in yesterday's
Buu regarding the rate war between the
San Plolo Valley road and the Ulo ( irauuo
rt'ostorn , Mr. Ady stated It was only a
scalpers' war. the scalp bcinu in the local
jotwoon Pueblo and Denver , which was
ibout ft. "This condition of affairs has al
ways uxlstcd , for there is hardly a ticket
ssucd on any road but that has a scali ) of
lomo dimensions concealed about it. The
var is of liltlo moment aud concerns only
i small section of Colorado. The telegram

Una MOINKS , .fan. ao. [ Special to Tut
Uin. : ] Tlio Australian ballot law. whlcli
was passed two years , is receiving a good
share of attention from tlio legislature.
Hills arc pending to remove the circle op-
po.slto the party namoj to repeal the whole
law in respect to municipal olcctloas in vil
lages , and to strlko out whole sections of do-
tails. The pdnciplo of the law , that ol
secret voting , may bo retained , but the "red
tnpo" loiituros are very likely to bo
eliminated.
Nearly 100 bills have been Introduced to
remedy technical defects or make slight
changes In the code.
Court expanses arc also being looked after ,
and several nblo luwyors , among them Mr.
Finch of Humboldt , are trying to simplify
the methods of prnetioo in this state anil
protect the Interest of Judgment dontors.
In some uarts of the state the liberal pro
vision of the assessment laws , allowing tax
exemptions for the growing of fruit or
fore t trees have been taken advantage of to
that extent that many utitiro farms entirely
escape taxation. This is notably true in the
southwestern part of the state. A bill in
troduced by Williams of Fremont Is now
pending repealing the law , providing for
such exemptions.
The special meetings of the republicans
members of the committee on suppression of
intemperance of the two houses , which have
been held in order to arrive at some agree
ment , if possible , as to tlio method of modi
fying the prohibitory law , in order to con
form to the pledges of the party platform ,
have been fruitless. A majority of the
senate committee have favored local option
and high lloensa under strict regulations ,
while the house committee , led by Chair
man Funk , takes the onnosito view and
champions the "Mulct" plan and rosuumis-
ston. The prospect that thcso committees
will bo able to agrco is very remote. The
resubmlssion of the question to n vote of the
people , however , will ho a part of the pro
gram.
The house passed the Blanchard resolu
tion , condemning the practice of suspending
pensions without Investigation , by a strict
party voto.
Uills v.-oro introduced in the house as fol
lows : By Smoke , establishing the Austra
lian system of land titles ; by Murray ex
empting the family earnings from execution :
by McCann. establishing a school for the
deaf In eastern IOWA ; by Davlson , providing
for the inspection of steam hollers and trac
tion engines , and for licensing engineers.
In the senate : By Carpenter , fixing the
salary of district judgrosat 1,001)per ) annum ;
by Kills , authorizing cities and towns of
1,000 inhabitants to license the manufact.uro
and sale intoxicating liquors ; by Uoy-
uolds , requiring the payment in lawful
money of all workmen i i mines and exempt
