Judge fclaynor's decision in regard to the Brooklyn street railrouds Is one of the few deci-ions of courts in such matters that 'he people can heartily commend. The employees struck because they considered that they were not treated faitly; the company goes into court and wants Its property protected and its exactions Judicially sanctioned. Hut Judge Gnynor simply says, In ellect: "Hun your cara or forfeit your c.hurler. You are a creature of the pe ,ple. They have granted you cei tain valuable privileges on certain conditions. The principal one of these conditions Is that you run your em's and accommodate the public. If you do not do this, your charter will be forfeited. It is not the business of the court to settle dif ficulties about wages. You must do that yourselves. But in any event you must operate yeur cars. You must provide transportation for the people. It was for this purpose that the people gave you a right to exist us a oorporutlon. Either keep your cars moving or give up your charter." This is remarkable, because out of the ubuuI course of modern judges. But it Is not only good law, but, bidter than that, evident justice. Herctol'oie, general, all a corporation had to do to make its oppression of workmen effective, was to rush into court. It must be confessed that as a rule the judges seemed to have an ear for the employers ouly. uttt Judge Guyuor lius set u refreshing example of requiring such corporations to do its duty and perform its obligations. If there had been such judges to consider the t-trike troubles lust summer, judgig who would have said to the railroads: "Bun your trains, with or without Pullman curs, us you please or as you can, but run them, aud transport pussengers uud freight and carry mails, or loose your chart ers," the great strike problem would have been speedily settled, aud settled right, too. Judge Gayuor deserves the thanks of every friend of hliinutiily und lover of justice iu the United Huites. fciun. The Penitentiary.

PINE BLUFF, Ark., Jan. 25. The south-bound Cotton Belt train was held up near her by two masked nieu at 75 p. in. The robbers were riding on the blind baggage, and, as the train went through a deep cut, the engineer saw Ihem crawl over the tender of the engine. Before he realized what was up, he was looking Intxi the muzzle of a pair of 4.5-callber revolvers. The rob bers commended him to stop the train and marched hhr to the express car, which wus in charge of Messenger J. W. Massey. Massey was covered by the bandits' guns, as was also Conduc tor Harris, who hud come out in the ineatitiine. They took the money Harris had on his person. The amount taken from III? express car cannot be ascertained. After an iiiff'ectual at tempt to open the safe iu the express car, the bandits compelled the passen gers to assist. The amount taken from the wife in estimated at $o,OUO. The watnh and chuin luken from the con ductor was returned. It is thought! they are members of the Cook gang, No. 2. The passengers were not mo lested, nor wus any one hurt by the bandits. Black Miners' Experiences in Coos Bay. BAN FRANCISCO, Jan., 26.-Eigh-teen negroes, who were induced to ooiuefmin West Virginia under prom ise of lucrative employment In Oregon, have arrived In this city und tell u" story of grout herdship and impo.-ition U. V. Audeivou, Ihe leader of Ihe parly, said today: ' "There are eighteen of us now. Seven are women who ctune out witli their husbands. One of them ,hus work and is now iu service, but the iet of us cannot get work. We lived uenr Keystone, Dowd, county, W. Va., where we had pretty good Jobs as miners. About December 16 last, J. B. or B. B. Earl came among us. He represented himself as the superinten dent of the Coos bay, Hoseburg & Ore gon Navigation & Coal company, and promised us work In Oregou. Eurl got up a party forty-nine, including five or six white men, and we started for the mines up north. This superinj tendent told us at home thai we would be paid forty-live cents per ton, for mining coal, und that at that rate, we could make from 55 to $7 per duy. He said we would have comfortable quar ters and good treatment. The men were dropped off the train at Boseburg and had to walk over through the country for sixty miles to Beaver bay, where the mines are located. There were no houses, and when the women joined us, ufler coming another route, we had to live iu a box ear. We set to work and built houses out of green lumber, which we had to cut from the trees. The rain dropped in on usull the lime we were there, and ice was ot; the floor nearly all of the time. It was ulmojt enough to kill us, for we were not used to cold weather. But we are strong uud would have put up with it all, if we could have made mopey, "We worked like slaves, but at forty-live cents per ton could only make ninety cents per duy, We had to work Iu mines were the wet mud dropped down on our heads, and we hud to cut through mud aud earth to reach the coal. All tills time we had to pay the company for our hoard and lodging. When we discovered that we could 11 01 stund it, we complained to Graham, the foreman. Earl had slipped oft", after locating us. Graham told us that we were trying to get up a strike and ordered us to pay whutwe owed the conipan'y and leave. We had no money. Home of the miners down ut Murah field, Newport aud Empire heard of our distress, aud after we bad trudged len miles, the good people raised enough money to ship us to Buu Francisco. When we got here we lived in one place and another until we saw our I'uudB ruunlng low and I lieu we picked out one to keep the money. J. VV. Miles wua the man e I, en d to hold the uolu of the purty uu tU wv uuki fit tuvl lot tfviUf penses. Miles came out wllh us, und seemed to be a line gentleman, and we trusted him like a brother. He has absconded, however, with $111 belong ing to the party and $75 of disown. We were In danger of starving to death when Mrs. Poter and aome other chari table ladies camo to our help. She and Ihe ladies of the Baptist churches, the Church cf Zion and other churches rented this house for us and we get food." The othrs present corrobraled the statement of Andereson. A $10,000 Fire at Corvallis. CORVALLIS, Jan. 28,-Tho gro cery store of Peaise, Clark & Company, the Ben Woldt saloon adjoining on the south, and Zeis' building formerly oc cupied by Jack Kirk as a Bttlnon, and the Wheeler Bros., embracing nil the buildings from rikipton's livery stable to tile corner north of the Occidental hotel known as the Sorbin corner are, this morning, almost a mass of ruins. The loss at this time is not known, but it Is believed that It will foot up fully $10,000, with Insurance of about $3000. The fire ' .had its origin in Pearse, Clark & Company's grocery store. By the time the alarm was given a big blaze had burst out through the roof, aud before the fire apparatus arrived on the scene there was un ex plosion throwing boards, window glass and other articles in every direction, some of them dropping across the street. Iu a very short time four big streams were playing on the lire, but bn ac count of the great headway the flumes had otaiued, nothing could be done but to prevent it from spreading to other buildings. For some time it was thought that the livery stable of Skip ton Bros., was doomed, and the total absence of wiud together with the su perhuman effort of the firemen alone, saved it from destruction. Tile alarm was turned in about four ond it was twenty minutes after seven More the apparatus was housed, Sol lie Smith while climbing up stairs in Skipton's stuble to get out on the roof to tight Are, fell to the lower floor. In the fall his ankle was broken uud severe bruises and possible Internal in juries sustained. Sain Case barf u badly burned face und u deep cut in the palm of his left bund as a result of the lire, He stood iu front of Pearse, Clark & Company's w licit the keg of jrimder? exploded. He was knocked down by the soucussiou and will suffer pain from its effects for some days to ceme, The concussion of the explo sion wus so great that it shuttered the glass In one of the doors of Nolan's store across the street. Many are inclined to the belief that the fire was Incendiary, but no attempts is made to fix the rcspoiisibilty. Merely in a Stupor. CONNELLSVILLE, Pa., Jan. 25. Mrs. Josephine Holiday, wife id' a coal miner at Broadford, wus found on the road two miles west of hero Sunday morning, appeurently dead. ' She was tukeu to her home an a physician sum moned.

He explained to her his presence there, and related how she hail been found on Sunday. By this lime the people on the outside had got ten over their fright aud were lighting to get a look at Mrs. Holiduy. She ap peased their curiosity by walking out into the front room uud ordering them away. Mrs. Holiday has been addic ted to the opium habit for several yeurs, and it is supposed she took an overdose Sunday and fell into a stupor in which she was found. A Woman's Bravery.

VALLEJO, Cal., Jan. 25. Carl Earl, a Be iinan apprentice on the Iu dependence, slipped off the deck of the launch L'vely at 4:00 p.m., and waa drowned. The launch was towing pile-driver upstream, and, as Earl wa standing on the deck aft, the lurch or the boat caused him to lose his footing and go overboard. A strong tide was running, uud Earl sunk before help could arrive. Blame, it would seem, attaches to some one for not having re placed the railing eround the launch, which was knockedaway in a collision some months ago. Qrapplers are now at work. .

After More Officers. Scuator Haley of Umatilla county, lias introduced a bill creating the office of grain inspector, for what purpose It hard to understand, unless it Is to take what little margin is left to the farmer at the present price. The Oregonian gives some Portland comment upon it which will fl ml a commendation from nil who understand the situation: Senator Haley's bill providing for the appointment of a state grain iu specter does not meet with much favor from wheat meu here. The bill seems to be looked upon as somewhat of a populist ntoasuie, introduced for the purpose of providiug oiHoers. W. J. Burns, local manager of Balfour, Guth rie & Co., said yesterday: "I have not yet heard any argument iu fayor of the bill. All the people I have talked to, men in the grain trade here and dealers iu the country, fail to see any occasion for It. I am aware they have graiu inspectors in tbe East, but the conditions are different there, the graiu being haudled in bulk. It is easily sampled iu the cars, and then it is put iu the elevator, where Us iden tity is lost! Here the graiu is bandied iu hugs, and it is impassible to sample all; when in cars. There are no stats iuspectors iu California, where the business is much larger than here. Altogether, I cannot see who will be benefitted by the law being put Into effect. "A similar bill is now before the Washington legislatures, and there is quile a sensation in favor of it in tbat stale; but I am sure the result will be very detrimental to the wheat business on tho Sound. It will put an extra expense on the-wheat handled II ere witli no corresponding benefit. In iHlierwords, the passage of the bill in Washington will drive the wheat trade away from that stale, "The expense of maintaining the law will be on the wheat itself, even if it were to be cohecte 1 frogs, tilt expor ter, who will take such shtrges into consideration when be purchases the grain. The total expanse will D vsry heavy, much more than tut amount named iu the bilL It will b 4 ellftUa which ths wbsnt trtdo, of i MtrMltt A
