Kegley has returned from bis visit to the new iron district of the south, lying around Birmingham, Ala. The general may claim a sufficient knowledge of iron productions to give his opinions weight. His discoveries lead him to believe that the iron scepter has not passed from Pittsburg, and is not likely to until a greater than Birmingham shall have been found. The ore beds of Birmingham, be says, are not in a cluster, nor is the territory all unbroken bed of ope, with rich surface outcropping* such as some investigators have described. The mines of coal and iron are separated widely, and Pittaburg, he says, is actually nearer its fuel, in miles, time and ccst, than the new bonama. Moreover, the production of coke is still in • very undeveloped state, and the product of their furnaces is of a very Indifferent quality. The boom In real estate has been the creator of much of the seeming wealth claimed for tlje district, and its actual status cannot be accurately determined until the Inevitable reaction sets in.

Ottawa, O., Juno 15.—Two wealthy young farmers of Kalida township, John Groehus anil Thomis Timberlake, yesterday morning fought n duel with revolvers at twenty-flvo yards in a grove near the station. At the first discharge Timberlako's pistol missed fire, bat Groehus shot to kill, the ball from his revolver passing through Timberlake's coat and lodging in a tree just beyond. At this juncture the Groehus party desired a cessation of hostilities, but Timberlake insisted that one more round be fired. After much wrangling this was azreed u;Don, and the two duellists rebu nod their places. Tho word was again given, and the sharp report of the revolvers rang out This time the exchange of shots proved more serious. Groehus was wounded In the lower part of the back and Timberlake received the ball in the region of tho rtomach. Both men are somewhat seriously wou ul:«l Doctors were on band and the v ouitde 1 inen recsived proper attention. Neither will die. IN SECRET CONCLAVE. ALDERMEN IN NEW YORK?

The purpose or result of the interview has not been definitely made public, but the meeting is believed to portend the cohesion of Germany and Austria with Eagland in oppoeiug the aggressions of Russia ou the frontier of Afghanistan, and England's joint action with Austria Jn restraining or thwarting Russia's ill concealed intention of occupying Bulgaria. New York, June 15.-j-This morning's Times publishes the following dispatches in double-leaded type: hum* in - nnw Chicago, June 15.—The 14th of June, 1887, will be as memorable in the grain trade of Chicago as was Jnne ltt, 1883, to the provision trade. Yesterday, like the day in Jnne four yean ago, a great bull movement collapsed like a bubble pricked with a pin, and inside of two hours values of tangible property were diminished to the extent of $2,000,000 and more, while the shrinkage on speculative options must amount to at least $2,000,000. Four years ago Peter McGeoch had undertaken to corner lard, and he had run up the price from $7 to $14, when all of a sudden he found himself short of money with which to carry the great load of margins or to support a dragging market, and in two hours he was poorer by nearly $4,000,000. Such in brief is the history of the great wheat collapse of yesterday. We call attention to oar stock ef flue clothing, unquestionably the largeet to be found in Pittston. As our goods were *11 bought for cash we are enabled to sell them at rock botom prices.' Lachink, June 14.—A visit made to-day to Lachine, where "Billy" Moloney has been passing the summer, revealed a fact which may have a startling meaning for those aldermen of the board of 1884 who accepted bribes, and more directly for Jacob Sharp, the man accused of bribing them. The man who carried the "boodle" was missing. His family ware at his summer residence, but the much sought for and much dreaded "Billy" was not with them. Our stock of boys' and children's clothing Is much larger than ever before and the display of neat patterns in checks, cheviot and stripes surpasses iu extent, variety and quality any previous assortment ever shown here. The reported warnings of the English press during the last few days have not been necessary to apprise Lord Salisbury of the fact that both the Bulgarian and Afghan questions have assumed phases rendering their immediate settlement by arbitration, force of arms or an alliance sufficiently strong to induoe Russiu to substitute discretion for territorial ambition absolutely imperative. The position of Russia on the Afghan frontier, after two years of careful, quiet and unrestricted preparation, is much stronger than that of England in any part of the ameer's dominions, and the first stages of actual war in that region could not fail to result disastrously to English aims, and firmly establish Russia in possession of the most strongly fortified positions in Afghanistan. It will therefore be seen that an alliance of sufficient power to awe the czar into relinquishing his purpose of administering the estate of the ameer in advance of the letter's demise is of great importance Co England, at least until she can get ready to contest Russia's claims individually with equal chances of success. Notapartiole of Information oould be obtained from Mrs. Moloney, but (purred on by the fact that all the recent sensational rumors in regard to the ex-reading clerk's plans had united in the prophecy that be would be in New Ygrjc on Wednesday, The Times' correspondent a vigorous Inquiry. Nothing definite was djpcovered except that Moloney was in none of his aooustomed haunts. Hack Cfc-ivers and station agents were inter rogated in vain. None of them could or would admit knowing anything of the exile's movenufits or in what direction he had gone. Montreal, June 14.—All the hotels were visited here to-night In search for Moloney, bat on none of the registers appeared his name or a name which there was any reason to suppose had been assumed by him. The fashionable boarding houses were visited one by one. At all of them the answer was the Bame—nothing had been seen of Moloney. Tho aid of the police was invoked uselessly. The employes at the railway stations were questitned without result. None of them had seen a man at all answering Moloney's description take any of the southbound trains during the day. The euuso was a pretty girl, Mary Briny, tho village I telle, to whom both have been paying attentions and with whom both were in love. She received attentions from both and seemed to delight in tho bad feeling between them. Of late Groehus was the favored suitor, aud this enraged Timberlake into sending Groehus a challengo, which was accepted, and the duel was fought. THE EMPEROR WILLIAM Our display of youths' and men's clothing is marvelous, and comprises all styles and qualities, from a durable working suit at $3.00 to a full dress Prinoe Albert at $20.00. We have an immense assortment of all the latest styles of Imported and domestic cheviots, pin chocks, large plaids, oorkscrews and disgonal worsteds. This bull movement began in March, was plainly visible in April, was unmistakable in character and intention throughout May, and for the first half of June owned 10,000,000 of actual wheat, besides unknown millions on contracts for July delivery. At noon yesterday the big clique was a hopeless wreck, and its holdings had shrunk in value close to 80 per cent. As with McGeoch four years ago, its money gave out, the load was too heavy, and it lay down and quit Expresses the Opinion That Be Will Never Leave Bis Bed Alive. Bebun, June 15.—The emperor for the first time, according to his physicians, is conscious of the gravity of the situation, and it was he that prompted the first note of alarm sounded in The Official Gazette of last Friday. Dr. yon Laaer entreated him ttD sit up yesterday, but the emperor refused to do so, saying that he knew well that he would never leave his bed again. He is affected mentally as well as physically. It is this mental change which has frightened most of those about him. The emperor is responsible for his present condition by his perverse energy eight days ago. The current version of the story is correct. It is true that during the naval review the emperor insisted upon remaining upon the deck of the Pomerania despite the bad weather and the commands of his physician, who ordered him to go below. To all entreaties be answered; "It is better that I should remain where I am. The sailors wish to see their emperor, and they do not see him frequently. I Insist on staying on deck."

C., June 15.—A duel with razors occurred near Woodruff on the public highway. The principals were two colored women, and the cause was a mutual sweetheart whose entire affections were claimed by both. Tho battle was hard and furious. The women fought until they succumbed from exhaustion caused by loss of blood. Both received severe and perhaps fatal wounds. They fought with keen rasors, which wero skillfully manipulated. The principal wounds received were in the face, breast and arms. Women Fight with Razors. We guarantee every garment perfect fitting and fast color*. We treat all customers alike.

Bailey & Co. and Hainill & Brine, neither of whom were known to have any relations with the syndicate. On the other hand, William Bellover and S. Block have thrown up tho sponge. Some very heavy houses, like those of Kershaw & Co., Irwin, Green & Co., and others, are known to be on the verge, buc the hope is held out that they will to-day be able to take care of all their trades, and pay dollar for dollar what they owe.

New Havxk, June 15.—Sears and Slocum were defeated in the doubles at the lawn tennis tournament yesterday by ft Beach and Thatcher, of the New Havens. Sears was also defeated In a practice game by Professor Ripley, of Yale. These events, caused great surprise and aroused the New Haven club to considerable enthusiasm. Sears is the champion of the United States, and Slocum is one of the crack players of the country. If ONB PRICE TO ALL. jQ Sacks & Bbown, New Number, 6T North Main St., PMUton. On the other hand, the appointment of a pro-Russian ministry in Servia has deprived Austria of any hope of King Milan's assistance in checking Russia's pretensions In the Balkans, and made England's assistance ort the eve of the election of a prince of Bulgaria, to whose accession to the throne Russia will undoubtedly object, doubly welcome. As for Germany's share in the benefits of the alliance, she has everything to gain and nothing to lose. By pas ively interfering to prevent Russia from precipitating war in Afghanistan and lending her influence to a bloodless settlement of the Bulgarian question, she acquires two active allies in suppressing the warlike ebullitions of France until the arrival of the time when it shall seem advantageous to provoke or declare war against her implacable enemy.

If he did so "Billy" Moloney is in New York to-night. The aldermen here are wildly excited over Moloney's disappearance, but they pretend confidence, and say "Billy" will never "squeal." haps Fatally Injured. Wimcesbarre, June 15.—Tlio practice of ''robbing pillars" in anthracito coal mines caused an accident in the Mill Creek colliery of the Delaware and Hudson canal company, yesterday, by which two men lost their live) and two others wero seriously, if not mortally hurt After a mine or part of a mine is worked out, and prior to its abandonment, in many instances, a force of men is put to work cutting coal from the pillars previously left to support the roof. This has beou going on in No. CS lift of the Mill Creek eolllery for some time. Yesterday four Poles were at work in one of the chambers in this lift, when the roof, already weakened by reckless pillar robbing, gave way, and a mass of rock and coal weighing more than ten tons fell on the men. Peter Ceimmers was instantly killed, Bimon Carmesky was so badly hurt that he died in an hour, Mike Fisher and John Paradosky were very badly hurt. The first intimation of trouble in the wheat deal appeared Monday, when the July "peg" at 85)Cc. was broken. That let July down so far that a marginal price for June, which was kept at V2){c., was inevitable. Joe Wiltshire, of Cincinnati, was here on Saturday, Sunday and Monda '. Repeated inter views have boon held between this Cincinnatiau and his Chicago broken. At one interview at the Richelieu, Kershaw left apparently so troubled in spirit that those who saw his face felt that a panic was inevitable. It is said that Leopold Bloom, a scalper, who learned of the sensational character of that interview, sold wheat on the strength of It and made C08,000 on the decline yesterday morning. WILL DAVITT BE ARRESTED! Liberal Papers Comment on the Bru- tality of the Police. London, June 16.—The Conservative papers reiterate the statement that the government intends to arrest Michael Davitt, Mr. Cox and others who have been instrumental in protracting the Bodyke evictions by inciting the tenants to armed resistance, but the general public still refuses to believe that the government really intends to prosecute any of them. The Liberal papers are filled with bloodcurdling accounts of the brutality of the polios In enforcing evictions, and assert that the resistance of the tenants and the violence of the spectators at Bodyke have been provoked by the unjustifiably inhuman conduct of the constables rather than the speeches of Mr. Davitt and his friends. A Divided Labor Party. Marine Intelligence. Kl.WttA, N. Y., June 45.—A state conference of the United Labor party is being held here to-day.

New York, June 15.—The body of Leoa Zorn, which was found in a marsh in the upper part of the city after the girl had boen missing for a week, was exhumed yesterday and a careful autopsy made. It was decided that the child had met with violence, and had afterward been drowned. The most plausible theory is that she was mangled by dogs, whose owners threw her into the marsh to avoid responsibility for the injuries inflicted. The German, French and Italian societies have offered $5,000 reward for the discovery of the girl's murderers, and have employed a private detective to work the case up.
