THE SWITCHMEN'S STRIKE. Only One Road Seriously Affected Movement Apparently a Failure. Pittsburg, November 26. Judging by apparent conditions the switch men's strike inaugurated this morn ing has proven a fiat failure. The strike was ordered by the Switchmen's Union of North Amerioa and "the claim was made early in the day by the union officials that every road in the city with the exception of the Pitts burg. Fort Wayne and .Chicago, and the Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis would be tied up com pletely. The developments of the day, however, demonstrate that' only one road, the Allegheny Valley, was seri ously affected. On this road but one j crew was at work and the road is badly crippled. . The demands of the switchmen all for the enforcement of the sltndad scale of wages; The strikers have not the sympathy of the other trainmen's unions. W. O. Lee, first vice grand master of the Brotherhood of Trainmen, is in the city and says the members of his or ganization will oppose the present movement. KENTUCKY'S COAL MINERS.

II ..) v .3 Nomina Star.- - - V Iov 28.--The. fact -t out to-day in the trial of wti 11 Conine for the killing of jour Ayres, Jr:, ( that ahe a a private confession of - her heart la-tha tr- I us uw puitoa omciua into ner confidence. This recital waa made tn George B. Oarner, an attorney em ployed in the law division of 4he Inte rior Department, who was a bnarriA at the Kenmore Hotel and who usual- I ly sat at tne same table at which Mrs. -Bonine took her meals. Mr. Garner waaon the witness stand to day and told his story for the first time. He said that Mrm. Bonine bad sought him Out and aaked his advice as to whether she should make a nublie statement and that he had suggested to her that she should delav her confession until the theory of suicide, .which was first entertained, should be fully exploited. A number of other witnesses Were heard during the day, several of them oeing men wno had taken Ayres out I to tne neighboring saloons during the evening of May 14th, and one of whom had taken him "to his room after midnight, about two hours be fore he met his death. These witnesses said Ayres was perfectly sober. ; Cooditloa of Body . Wbeo Foand. William Bchoenberger, keeper of the morgue, testified to having taken charge of Ayres' body. He had been present at the autopsy, and had taken photographs showing the location of the wounds on the body. The films were introduced and exhibited to the jury. Mrs. Bonine gave one hasty look at the pictures as they were held by one of the attorneys, but she quick la turned her head and gave them no further attention. She engaged in, conversation with Attorney Fulton most of the time while this testimony was being given. The witness said l there were - powder marks on the breast and wounds, but none on the thigh wound. Under the arm there was a burn. Describing the condition of the corpse when he found it Mr. ocnoenoerger saia the arms were drawn up in front of the face. "In order that the stenographer may de scribe the picture," said Mr. Gould, "I suppose there will be no objection to his noting that the attitude was one of defence." . "We do object most decidedly," re sponded Mr. Douglass. The court agreed that the description would be improper, and it was decided that he should say that the arms were placed as it suieiaiDg ioo iace. On cross-examination the witness said that when he entered the room where the killing occurred he saw several empty cartridge shells in the slop jar and had also seen some sheila and. cartridges on the trunk and on the wash-stand. Her First Coafessloa. The next witness waa George B. Gardner, to whom Mrs. Bonine made her first confession on the night after the tragedy. "She stated to me," he said, "that she knew more about the Hleath of Ayres than had been given to the pub lie. I think she hesitated a moment, and either my manner or something I said induced her to goon, and she said she was present when it happened and told me that ahe had come kto me ber cause she wanted my advice. She told me that the morning of Ayres' death he came to her room and -knocked on her door and complained of being ill and asked if ahe could not do some thing for him; that when she got into Ayres' room he assaulted her and he had a pistol in his hand and in the scuffle which ensued he was killed." "Did she describe the struggle that took placet" asked the district attor ney. The witness stated Ithat she said nothing more than that when the struggle followed the assault, the pis tol was fired. Tne witness stated inat she did not tell him in whose hands the pistol was, but later corrected him self by saying that he believed she said the weapon was in Ayres' hand. "She also told me that Ayres waa under the influence of liquor at the time of the shooting," said Mr. Gardner. The witness also said that Mrs. Boninehad spoken to him again on the next day, or the second day after the tragedy. She sat at the aame table with him m the dining room and ahe again sought to talk with him concerning the trag edy. She said," Mr. Gardner testi fied, "that ahe was feeling badly and that nothing was sustaining her ex cept the consciousness of her inno cence. She added that she could not get 'it' out and asked me if she had better destroy it. By It' I understood her to mean that she referred to one of her garments, but I did not know what. I told ber to destroy nothing, as she had not decided upon a public confession." . ' , On cross examination Mr. Gardner testified that he could not exactly say Mrs. Bonine was excited. She wss very hurried and her manner was tense; She had aaked his advice as to the advisability of -making a public statement and he had advised ber to remain quiet until it waa determined whether the suicide theory would hold good. Ayree' Intimate Friend. . James Burns, who waa Ayres' inti mate friend, and who bad accompa nied him to his room the night of the tragedy, waa next called. He aaid that on the night of the tragedy Ayres had gone with him and several others to two or three saloons around the corner, where he said Ayres had drunk sparingly. He had then at about 12:30 o'clock- accompanied. Ayres to his room, leaving him in a perfectly sober condition. The witness said that while originally Ayres, and Mrs. Bonine had been on friendly terms, these relations became strained.. He did not know of Ayres having a pistoL On croes-examfnatton Burns said that he had not apent more than two minutes in Ayres' room when he ac companied him up, and that he had no confidential conversation with him. "I do not know that I, could have bad a confidential talk," he said.

He said that when Ayres returned he was perfectly sober. Joseph O. McOabe and Arthur E McOubbin testified that Ayres was so ber when he returned to the hotel. J. k. irord, a friend or Ayres, saw Mrs. Bonine on the morning after the trag edy. He asked her if she had danced with Ayres the evening before the kill ing, and she replied that they had danced together. The next day she had expresssed ber regret over Ayres' death and her astonishment; that, in view of the fact that he had no ene mies, he should have been killed. Her demeanor was not different from that of other lady guests of the hotel. Adjourned. WARM WIRKLETS.

The Liberal forces control San Pa blo station and Barbacoa, where there is a long iron bridge over the Chagrea river. This is a critical point, offering the Liberals a splendid noint of attack should the government forces attempt to cross the bridge. It is generally ad mitted that if Gen. Alban succeeds in crossing the river at Barbacoa hia march toward Colon will be an easy task. Gen. Iugo, the Liberal com mander, is at Barbacoa. The Liberals retreated from Emper ador owing to lack of ammunition. They admit having lost sixty men in killed and wounded at Emperador and that among the number was CoL Oyas, but they claim that the govern ment loss was over 150 men in killed and wounded. The armored train which went over the railroad yesterday having on board Capt.

The Liberal forces continue to retreat before him. They explain their retreat by saving they have-no ammunition.- All of the fighting to-day occurred at Barbacoa bridge. Passengers by the delsyed train assert that fully 100 Conserva tives were killed and wounded -during the fiarhting there and that the Liberal losses were insignificant.

HINTS ON PICKLINQ.f low to Prepare the Vlnearar So to Get a Good Green. Cider vinegar is preferable . in all eases, not only because it preserves the fruit and vegetables better than other kinds, but because it glves a better flavor.

Instead, silver, wood enware or granite spoons or forks should be employed never tin or steeL Boiling the vinegar .will weaken it. For sour pickles It should be scalded only. A graniteware or porcelain lined kettle should be used for the purpose. For those to be used at once,: wide mouthed stone crocks are best. The vinegar should be two or three Inches above the pickle. A double cloth.over the tcp and a large plate above' that make the. best cover to the jar. tilf the vinegar begins to look white on'top, it should be turned off scalded and-- skimmed.

'Take a long, slow, but easy and natural breath in such a way as gradually and. gently to lift the hands outward by the action of the abdomen. At the same time slowly and gradually open the eyes so that at the end of the Inspira tion they are wide open and directed upward. " Let the breath out easily, and naturally, letting the hands fall Inward as the tratward pressure of the abdo men la withdrawn. At the same time let the eyes drop and the eyelids natu rally fail by their own weight so that they are' closed at the end of the expi ration. ' Dp- all this quietly : and natu rally. Do net make too hard work of It . Repeat the inspiration ' and expira tion; with opening- and lifting, dropping and closing of the eyes, ten times Then take ten breaths in the same way, al lowing the eyes to remain closed. Al ternate ten breaths with the opening and closing of the eyes. When the eye lids begin to feel heavy and yon feel tired and sleepy, as you will very soon, go through the motions more and more easily, and lazily until you merely will the motions without making dfcy effort,' or hardly any effort, to execmV tbem. At this stage, or more likely in one of the intervals of breathing without any motion of the eyes, you will fall asleep. : Nervous persons will have .some diffi culty at first In the gradual opening and closing of the eyes. They will tend to fly open and then snap together; but, as putting salt on a dove's tail is a sure rule for catching the dove, so this grad ual and ea.sy opening, and, closing of the eyes In rhythm, with quiet, natural breathing, once secured, : are -almost equivalent to dropping" off to sleep. TMs rule induces the respiration that is Characteristic of normal sleep. It tires the set of muscles, the tiring of which is one of the favorite devices for pro ducing hypnosis. It produces and calls attention to certain sensations, in the eyes and eyelids which are the normal precursors of sleep. Finally persons who have had difficulty In going to sleep report that this method puts tbem to sleep and puts them " back again when they wake up too soon. . ' How to RmoTS a Tight Ulna.
