Mr. Hewitt gave to the press last night his reply to Mr. George's letter. He declines Mr. George's proposal for joint debate, saying that the people are. fully informed through the press in regard to the respective views of the candidates. He repeafe his assertion that Mr. George represent a dangerous movement of ooe class «i citizens against all other olaam, and involve* an indorsement of doc' trias* which would lead to a repetition of the horrors of the French revolution and the commune. _ / \ Chicago, Oct 80.—The platform and rWtattons of the Anti-Prohibition oonveattdn in by the temperance people o* the country, and the.resolutions followed in this order: Chicago, Oct 80.—The stock yards strike, which promised to pass into history as a bloodless one, has been attended by a reckless sacriflc of human life. A Lake Shore train of seven cars left Armour & Co.'s packing house yesterday afternoon. On board the train were 100 of the imported workmen, who were leaving the stock yards to return In the three cars at the rear of the train were about 110 Pinkerton men acting as guards to the others. The guards had their rifles with the muzxles pointing out of the car windows. The train went akDi« without disturbance until Halstead street s reached, when a stop w$atnaCle to, attach other cars. A erbwd had lOwltitsl at this pbint, and as the inmates of the train were recognised some Jeering remarks were made, and there was considerable hooting. Suddenly one of the Pinkerton guards stepped out on the platform of the rear dar, and fired his revolver into the crowd. This was the signal for a general volley, and fifteen or twenty of the Pinkerton men began to fire their rifles from the car windows. The crowd, which was largely composed of bpys, fled in a panic, and the greatest excitement prevailed. , i Richmond, Oct. 80.—The Knights ot Labor convention continued wprk on the report of the committee on appeals and grievances until it was finished.

What The Coal Trad* Journal Say* N*w York, Oct 80.—The following nominations for congress were made last night: Terence Begley, a contracting teamster and a well-known citizen, was leading his horse up the street, when he was struck in the abdomen by a rifle bullet and fell to th» ground. He was removed to his home, where he died. The facte of the shooting were telephoned to peHoe headquarters, and when the train reached the Twenty-second street station all the Pinkerton men were arrested and locked up at the armory. ▲boat Price*. Seventh district—John D. Lawson, Republican.N*w York, Oct SO.—The Coal Trade Journal, in its regular weakly issue to-day, says: Price* remain unchanged for anthracite, and the meeting oil the 19th wisely deterred advancing the circular rates. Until the market is fully up to these figures it Is absurd to invito adverse ertttcism by paper advances, even if the higher tolls aid wages which naturally follow ware left oat of, the question. The demand for cool is *M*a, and the output this year will egaeed Hwtof any preceding. The question of. the allotment for November has already' reoeived some attention, and it it possible that 8,800,000 tons will be the figure agreed upon, as the demand Is active and likely to continue so. The Pattlscn affair is not showing any effect on the management of the anthracite companies, and is not likely to do so in the very near future. Bituminous is going off in large quantity, and there is a tendency to somewhat firmer prices, but the lack of unanimity on the part of producers doing business here at tide hasps prion; lower than they should be. With anythtag hke action the price would be IwkiW* ton higher than it is, and yet be a knroae for the fuel in question.

There was vigorous opposition by a few delegates to so large an increase in the salaries of the higher officials, especially that of the general master workman, but it became, evident after the debate had progressed a short time that the report of the committee would be adopted. Home delegates agreed that, above all others, the Knights of labor should set an example of economy in the matter of running expenses, and that it was not proper to pay one ntenjber such compensation. The advocates of the increased salaries took the opposite ground, and held that since the fundamental principles of thia organisation taught that "a fair salary should be given for an honest day's labor," and that the primary objeot of the order was an increase of salaries, the order itself ought to set the example.ry Demonstration at Gallatin.

Than ware about sixty ladies on horseback wearing black ptag hats with long white streamers. In front of tbe procession on a carriage all to himself was an Immense white rooster on a high platform crowing lustily all the way. Tbe procession on its arrival in town was greeted by great throngs that bad gathered from all the surrounding counties'of Tennessee and Kentucky. Ex-Governor Leslie, of Kentucky, delivered tbe welcome address. After an hour or two spent in greeting their friends they repaired to the grove, where both spoke. Alf would not have spoken at Gallatin had not numerona telegrams and telephone messages led him to change his mind. Alf s voice is still very hoarse and Bob i» suffering from a malarious attack. The fatigue of incessant travel and spoaldng once or twioe every day has been too much. Effective use was made by Bob during bis speech of the trouble over the pension office at Nashville, which was first alluded to by his brother.
