A special despatch from Pottsvllle, dated on the 20th Inst., says i Very low prices for anthra cite coal and decreased wages for tbe miners Is the situation In the coal basins for the rest of the year. It Is almost Impossible to sell ordin ary sizes of coal at any price. In previous years there was always an advance ot to per cent made In the autumuand another advance when winter set In, but this year Is a notable exception, The summer schedule ot prices stIU prevails and, n all probability, will continue for the rest of tbe year. All companies have agieed on a policy of restricting mining. This has betn going on tor some time, and yet the quantity of coal at tidewater has rapidly ac cumulated. The October production may fall short 700,000 tons all told as compared with tbe production In October of last year. The total falling off for the busluess year may reach 3 000,000 tons, re resentlug a drop from ss.ooo.ooo to S5,ooo,ooo tons. The Reading Railroad Company will keen about a dozen ot Its lesser collieries to Idleness for a short time and In the meantime much needed repairs will be made. The iudlvldual mine operators are Informed that there Is a scarcity ot empty roal cars. Tbls tneans that long sidings all along tbe line are vU (tiled with big roal trains and that they will I lie there rather than dump their cargoes at tidewater, thereby showing a tremendous stock on baud. The coal companies claim, however, that anthracite will not be sold any cheaper this winter. The middlemen are the gainers by this most unusual condition of the coal trade. Miners set lower wages, tbo producers bave very little pront,whlle tho consumer pays about the same retail rates as be did last year tit this time, when the wholesale price or coal was higher by at least 20 per cent. The Ulllard Murderor. During the trial of William II. Bartholomew, at ltaston, for the murder of A. W. Dlllard, of Northampton county, on Monday, Mrs. Dlllard", accused ot being an accomplice, Interrupted tho proceedings by confessing to the plot that ended In the death other husband: The following Is the Incrummlnatlng confession 1 Mrs. Dlllard took the stand when all pictlmln arlcs wero finished and began her confession, She was dressed In black, had on a new black bonnet and a short black veil. This was thrown back over her bonnet. Her thin sharp unaltrac tlvo features were cleaily revealed, a whlto pallor serving to bring out the lines on her face with much distinctness. At times she spoke rapidly and plainly. Again, she could hardly be heard and her answers came only after many repetl Hons of tho question. She frequently looked at her' counsel for encouraging nods before an swering. She said: "Daitholon-ew was at tho house tho night be fore the murder, took my husband's gun; re moved tho firing pin, and told me when the chickens made a noise the next night I should rouse my husband, tell him to go out, raise his lantern at tho big cherry tree and he would then shoot him. T he next night when I heard thn chickens I carried out Instructions. I did not see Bnrtholowew. When my lmihaiul went out of the house, after dressing Jakeyand I followed until ho told us to go back. We did so, and then I told Dlllard to ratso tho lantem and look Into the tree He did this. His lantern went out. I heard a grunting kind ot noise, and soon after I saw niv husband stumbling to the porch, where ho fell dead." Mrs. Dlllard, as she has dene all along, In elated that she did not hear the report otthe murdeier's gun. Jakey Dlllard sworn to the same thing, alio admitted that she and Bartholomew had been Intimate while they lived near Bartholomew's and since they moved to their place, three miles from where Bartholo mew lived. She said: "Bartholomew bad spoken to me a few weeks before about killing my husband. tie said he did not want us to move away; that he liked me and wanted me for himself. I said you have a homo and children, you should go there. He said he could not get along with his children, tie then said he would rent n farm and we would all live on It. I said he had a house and he should go and tlvo there. I had myhuibandand would not leave htm. Bartholo mew said he would shoot Aaron. Oh, 1 would be better oft If I had never seen html" After this the poor woman was led weeping from tho stand and tho defence rested. The defense set up an alibi for Bartholomew. Tho Jury returned a verdict of guilty of murder 111 the first degree against Bartholomew on Tues day. Death In an Ore Mine. We gather the following particulars ot the death by suffocation of two men In tbe oro mines at Millport, from Tuesday's. Mauch Chunk Timtu Frank Boyer and Isaac Koch, ot Millport, this county, met with a terrible death by suffocation on Friday night, between ten and twelve o'clock. Thev were working In the ore mine of Itutherford Brothers, whloh Is located near that village. The mine Is operated on tho principle of a coal mine, and consist of a shaft, four feet square, sunk to the depth of ono hun dred and twenty feet. At the bottom ot tbls shaft they dug a tunnel twelve feet squaraand four hundred yards long. Boyer and Koch were working at the end ot this tunnel and wereovetcome by the foul air and gases which were confined within these narrow-limits. The proprietors recognized the danger ot suffocation and commenced to sink a second shaft at the end of the tunnel, tor the purpose of ventilation. They were nearly finished and wero within two feet of tho unfortunato men, when they were overcome and rendered unconscious. Koch was found In a pool of water and Boyer was wedged under a heavy piece ot timber. Boyer was still warm and I: Is believed ho could have been re suscitated If he had not been held fast by tbo timber, which made his Immediate removal Im possible. Three shifts ot men are employed In the mine, and tho men who went to work at midnight made the ghastly discovery. Boyer leaves a wife and one son. Koch was a single man. About twelve years ago the former was a miller In Slatington. The calamity has cast a gloom over the corn- munlty and hundreds of persons visited the scene ot the accident Saturday, sober and Industrious men.
