London, Jun 31.?Ibero is a pretty -general
BK'n-cinriit tliat Herr 1 liza's declaration to the
Lowr-r House of the Hungarian Diet is moro

ana the canally blunt and somewhat stein declara?
tion that Aiisirmlliini-air hud taken and would
continue t?, take all necessary measures for her
own eivurity and for tbe effective Bsa of her own j
army.
II. ri Tis/a is not quite a first-rate flgUN BB4S|
Fur.'- MB statesmen. Hut it is certain that no
mich lanirtiaire as tils -would bo used without
the full concurrence of Count Kolnoky.
Mr. Davit! bas startled a -rood many linnie
Rule Liberals bj the 'alni announcement that the
real fii'lit is now not for |>oliti<al supremacy alone,
bm for n redistribution of woalih. Ireland, bc
isivs. bas put. herself in tb*- vani'unid of this
?fl.-fii'iis striisriilo. This ls here ro(*ard<d as rm
? tloit on Mr. Davin's part to identify ibe Irish |
ohusi- with tbo Socialist and Anarchist movements
on the Continent, lie evokes once moro the
ii rend siieetro of the International, vvbieb England
abbots, and once moro justifies Mr. Parnell's known
distrust of his too enthusiastic coadjutor. The
T..ri.s are quick to take this up. Even Mr. Smith. '
not always quick, fastened tbo BOSt day on Mr. .
Davitt'-* Riiiaztnu in.lisoretlons. Ile nppoals to
||>. Murley to snv nt Dublin this week whether
he too ls for that complete SSBSsJ revolution of
?which Mr. Davitt ls an apostle. Either Mr. j
Davitt's doctrine or something * Iso bas bad a
?nvat effect on Mr. Smith, for his SpSOol ls one
of remarkable energy. Ile describes tho contest
In Ireland as war, open war. bel ween the f'ov
ernnioiit and BSOB who are rebels to the prinripl. s
of law and rebels to tbe unity of the Empire.
That account of thc Mattel ls perhaps more ener?
getic than discreet.

In Dublin draw a heavy fire from tho ITnlonists,
who are doing their best to belittle tbe siirnili
cancc of tbe coming demonstration. Ths**/ now
aliVi-e that thc eon.jioslrion of tho committee will
not boar examination, that the number nf really
Important BBBMS is very small, nn.i that thc pro?
portion of si|BSf'Ires by professional nnd mercan?
tile men to ths whole number In each profession
or busi, ss is slight. For example, there aro
but iiin*Ty-eii.'ht barristers out of a thousand,
llulf of the Irish miinieipalities are unrepresented.
There are only BBB Catholic priests out of over
M.i'00. nnd hardly any railway, hank. Insurance or j
sf*anis1iip direr-tors. Thin there apiwiirs an elab?
orate and bitter altuek or Mr. Morley, on lecount

Mr. I'tiriieH's refusal to lie present, n refusal which
the state of bis health ls said to make imperative.

clare* Hint Lord Charles Beresford's 'tatenient j
about, the want of organization for war in the [
Navy is monstrous, and insists that there lins
born an sBjisIHgeBOB Department in the Admiralty j
for twenty-five yeats, but that without lt an ;
English Admiral aa it foreign station could always
take ears of hlraself. Admiral Richards in sailor

The fortunes of the pri/c-r'ne s-em foi tho

for aiaasal fees, whereas tho Supreme Court awards
nothing. The court also reduces the alimony from
."-.'.io ) lo si,.i?)0. The court hold* that If the facts found
by .lu.i;,. sullivan bo correct, lil* opinion iiflirming tbe
legality of the marriage ls .correct. The ch*ef point made

lbs assumption of connubial relations made pnblie. Tne
court does no deny a now trial on .lie fact* mir confirm

Rsadino, Jin. 31.?Conservative men who hava
J carefully reviewed tho situation of affiiir* growing
' out of the grand Schuylkill and Lehigh miners'
strike cannot uuy longer disguise the fact that
tlie l?hor war wrll be relent.leea and bitter .nd will
have a paralyzing effect on the Iron industries of
Lantern Pennsylvania. The furnaces, one after
another, are going out of Bass**. Some SlhsB ratab
lisljn.-ntis. such as steel works, rolling-mills, etc.,
; which depend upon th,_ tMtnme* for .j,,,,. lroBt
: having their sources 0f supply cut off must elora
dowu also, and thc lot* to the community by the
i closing of ho many mill* and factories can hardly
i be estimated In dollars and jenta. Before the
strike the iron business was good, every furnace
i and mill was running; now mon* than one-half
! Lave shut down because their coal has run out.
j Within a radius of a few miles from this city a
suflicieiif, number of men have been thrown out
? of furnace work to support from 4.ooo io S.000
people. The Leespnrt furnace is sfi.'; tn biast,
coke being us.-*!. 'Mic Topton is ont ot bloat: so
: ls tho Temple. 'Ihe Mount Laurel is running,
| but the Lyons and kiit/.town furnaces arr shut
1 down. The APuirtisj ond Micur.trie furnaces .ire
In blast; khef receive coal over thc Li-high Val?
ley Railroad. The furnace at Krnans is out The
! two Hird Coleman furnaces ut Cornwall are cloned
down, but all others in that vieinit.y are in nix-ra
i tion. The two Sheridan furnaces and the Robc
; sonia, the largest furnace* in Pennsylvania, pro?
ducing 1,000 fons af iron a week use colo- nnd are
kept in oper.it ion. At Pottsville all tl.o fB IBB ttl
are out. Tho Maiden Creek, at Lei,hurtsville, ls in
! blast. The Cornelius, at Columbia, is out.
Chickie*, Nos. ) and 2, and the Vest, a faina08 afc
Columbia, ure supplied with coal Ly tho Penn?
sylvania Railroad ami aro kept in full operation.
Thg Donegal ond Marietta furnaces BM out.
| Chestnut lilli No. 3, tho Rt. Churl's and Aurora
at Columbia are in blast and the Henry Clay at.
thg same place ls closed down. Furnaces are out
at Port Kennedy. Norristown and Cnnshohoetcn.
At PotLstown, Boohtclsville and Phot-nixville they
are running. At Blrdshoro- one furnace ia out of
blast and the other will be hinkid np In a few
days. One of tho Keystone furnaces in this city
is running ami tho other is out of blast.
Many of the above furnaces which are In blast
have been compelled to resort to -ol'-' with bul
results. It ls predicted that If BUBB ll Baal lons
In those furnaces they will be ruined and will
have to be rebuilt. Those furnaces each prod-ice
an average of tSB tons of pig iron a week. From
this it can bl seen what thc communities outside
of the mining regions, which depend on iron
works for support, ure suffering. Only ono sect ion
of tl.o State is enumerated in the above list, but
In other regions it is fully as bad. Well-informed
funiacemen predict, that March 1 will see tho,
shutting down of every anthracite furnace In this
region.
As for the strike, that is still f-ointr The nv-n
show no sisals of yielding. The e*m>>anv rays it
has a few mines working, but it is only with small
forces, nnd they aro not ns a mle ex'-erioneed
miners. For instance, to-<lay the company shipped
from tho entire regions 180 onrs of oi.nl. 'Dint is
just exactly one-half of thc output wt its Brook?
side Colliery alone when it is working full-handed.
The minors still object to mining coal, even if
I tiny get the advunce, as long as lt is .hipped by
j the Reading Balli, od. The individual opera'nr*
who are willing to pay the advance feel that they
are being ground hot ween two millstones On one
( side tiny are being hampered by rho railroad and
i on thc other by tho minor*.
I 'Ike operators of tho William Penn, a pru are
j minc, issned this notice to-day :
J Th!* company will IBBMBS to-rro-row ts ith union ,., i <>n
, inion rt-en, ehoeror -otrxs to work. TU'-v oUI kc taxes,

It is not believed that the ajBJBpBBJ v.il! KM
. ceed. This attempt of the company is looked
upon as a test of the strength of tho minor*. If
the William Penn can resume, thea n will bs a
serious blow to the nv n.
The eye* of the entire region are now turned to
' Pittston, where 300 delegates ll [BIMBI lag tho
miners of Ihe Wyoming and Lacie wu uria rejiions
j are In sotslon. In these regions IB?0#B meu md
I boys aro employed, and they will b" strongly
I urged to strike to support the SO.uOo ?t',k"rs ii
I Lehigh aud Schuylkill. Tho majority of the
i miners are not in favor of the strike, bat will
I follow tluir lead.-rs. If these miners strike ali
i anthracite coal supply will be cut off, and | * **_
i famine will come in len days.
Th- Rending t'ompuny made a vain effort to
