TTClkesbarre Companies Preparing for a. Threatened Strike. TOO 3IAXT FOREIGNERS ARE ARRITIXG Dc Bots, July 19. For over a year the railroads of this section have been searching for a lost orpin, and the mystery has at last been explained by Allison Roscoe, of this place. Roscoe plays the fiddle at country tlances, and has to assist him in making a lioUe a small portable organ. Over a year ago he shipped this celebrated organ from Brockport by freicht to this place. The towns are but 15 miles apart, but in trans portation the organ had to be handled by the Eric, the Eedgevay and Clearfield and the Allegheny Valley Railroads, and in the shuffle the organ did not get through in time. A few days later Roscoe w as at Falls Creek and saw his organ in a car on the Biding. Supposing his friends had loaded it for him, he took the organ, and has been using it ever since, "When the organ did not turn up at the proper time, the Da Bois agent started tracers and has been tracing ever since. The agents of the three roads mentioned also started tracers, and it has been looked for from one end to the other of the lines. Yesterday Agent Zell, of this office, received a package of letters, tracer-, orders and mis cellaneous manuscript relating to the lost organ that weighed eight pounds and con tained enough ideas and suggestions regard parding that organ which, if properly ap- i)lied. would have located the lost tribcs of vrael long ago. "While he was examining the bundle the orgia hove in sight, accca- iianicd by the owner, h wa amazed to ,v learn the'organ he had bten playing on for a year was lot freight There will proba bly be another cart load of manuscript han lled belorc the 30 cents charges are paid. "WOUNDED BUT NOT PENSIONED. Tlie Uccortl of a Soldier AYIio Fought After Ills Time "Was Out. ew Cattle, July 19. John Able, whose remain w ere Interred to-day, was a member of Colonel 11. S. Quay's One Hundred, and Tonty-fourtli Regiment, which was after ward commanded bj Colonel EdS. O'Biien, UeeoareJ, ol New Castle. Sir. Able was a member ot Company A. At the battle of Fredericksburg his regiment was retreating before thenreof the rebel guns, when Col onel O'Brien made the discovery that the reg. mental colors were missing. This was con-idered a terrible blow to the gallant One Hundred and Twenty-fourth, and the Colonel eUedfor a volunteer to co back to tho rebel line- and secure the colors. John Able Mopped lorward and started amid a shower of bullets. He reached the position the regi ment had occupied, but could not find tue color. Twelve days befor-3 the great battle of Chancellorsville the time of enlistment of a number ot the members of the One Hundred and Tu cnty-fonrth expired, umong them be ing Mr. Able. Ju-t before the battle, while the boys were preparing to leave for home. Colonel O'Brien asked them to volunteer to j;o into the fight. Mr. Ablo did so and was v. ounded in this battle, and, as he was not on the roll at tho time, he never received a pension. The deceased was killed by falling jrom a load of hay Friday. NEW WILMINGTON SNAKES. One of Them Measured Ten Feet When Killed by a Farmer. New Castle, July 19. New 'Wilmington comes forward with the first snake story of the season in this section. William Scott n as in his hay field yesterday afternoon and t as carrying a scythe, when he encountered a bugs blacksnake, which on seeinz him started for a small strip of woods at tho edge of the field. Mr. Scott gave chase and atter a short time succeeded in wounding the reptile. This caused the snake to turn and show fight, and for a little time it looked as if Mr. Scott would get the worst of it. The nake by a quick movement succeeded In wrapping himself around the man's body. In the excitement Mr. Scott swung the tcythe around, cutting ofl a portion of tho snake's tall. This made the reptile loose its hold and it fell to the ground, and when the scythe was again swung around it cut off lt9 head. Mr. Scott took the snake to New Wil mington and found it measured nine feet. He thinks he must have cut off at least six inches from each end, and this would mako the reptile at least 10 feet in length. APBAID OF OIL TANKS.

A big strike among the anthracite miners is threatened and tho region is in a state of excitement. The com panies arc gathering their forces and making ecry preparation for the trouble. It Is eaid among the men to-night that the large companies have combined and: are bringing Into this seotion large numbers of workmen direct from Europe. It Is a fact that squads of foreigners aro arriving dally in suspiciously large numbers and are applying for work wberevorwork may be had. The employes of the companies have no other grievance of any eonsequenoo except that the companies refuse to pay tho wages every two weeks as the new law calls for. The men claim the monthly pay Is too hard on them when ttioy must meet heavy dally expenses and that in consequence they are forced to patronize company stores or other places they would not if they-had the money to do so. DROVE A WHITE HORSE. THE WAGON CONTAINED DR. CKO NIN'S BODT IN A TRUNK. A Story of Peter Deane,Who Hid In Canada lie Afterward Was Paid Two Thousand 'Dollars For His Part of the Trans action. New York, July 19. The morning Ad vertiser prints a rather fishy story about the man who is supposed to have driven the white horse which took Dr. Cronin to his death. The story in part is as follows: "Immediately after the conviction of the prisoners an Irishman who called himself Peter Deane, and who lived in Lake View, not far from the Carlson Cottage, quietly left Chicago and went to Canada. Deane was a dog fancier and dealer in birds. He was a quiet, reserved man and apparently took no greater interest in the Cronin mvs tcrv than did his neighbors. He attended to his business every day, and when, m De cember, 1889, he sliut up his shop and dis appeared, no particular curiosity was aroused. "It was not known to the people in Lake View, however, that Deane had been in daily communication with a prominent member of the Clan-na-Gael ever since the trial began; nor was it known that this same prominent member paid Deane's ex penses to Canada and that there Deane joined the Starkics, who were suspected of a guilty knowledge of Dr. Cronin's death. The dog fancier remained in retirement for nearly a year and then went back to Chicago. From Chicago he was ordered to go to Xew York. Upon his arrival there he went to an obscure hole in the Southside and remained until he was notified to meet the man who was directing his movements. "When this meeting took place the sum of S2,000 was paid to Peter Deane with the understanding that he will never relate the fact that he had driven the horse from the Carslson cottage to the catch basm, and that he knew wliat the trunk which he put in the wagon contained when he helped lift it in and when he helped lift it out. Deane promised, and then he signed a receipt for the money. The next day he left New York to go" to Canada. He never went. He did not return to Chicago. The man's per sonality was so marked that he could not be swallowed up even in a city like New York. The receipt that he signed has been shown to a gentleman in New York. The holder of it expresses the belief that he will never be called upon to pay another dollar. Whether Peter Deane is dead or alive only this one man knows, and this one man is safer with Deane dead than Deane alive." NEABLY A DEATH LINE. ATonng Woman's Narrow Escape From a Life-Saving Cannon Ball. New Bridge, N. J., July 19. A H. Leggett, Postmaster here, came within an ace of being killed by a cannon ball in his store Saturday morning. Mrs. E. L. Cleve land, the postmaster's daughter, had just risen from a chair that was shattered to pieces E. J. Victor, of Fairmount,is chief clerk for J. H. Snelling, the wholesale shipchandler, of 158 South street. Mr. Snelling has been making a specialty of lifeline mortars for ships' use. Mr. Victor obtained the consent of the Bergen Gun Club to use their field for testing-grounds. Nine mortars were sent to New Bridge yesterday morning and a few hours later Mr. Victor, accompanied by two inspectors, went to the gun club grounds to test the life-saving ap paratus. Several villagers heard the shooting. Postmaster Leggett and his employe, Will iam Low, stood on the front porch of the office when ttav heard a whizzing sound and were str.fck by flying splinters. The ball went through the store door, cut a path through the floor, and, glancing up, struck ine cuair mat ..urs. vieveiauu uuujusi icii. It stopped at the last wall. William Low was sent to the shooting grounds to let the gunners know the result of their poor aim and to ask them to stop. The gunners said the life-line fastened to the 15-pound hall had broken and let it free. They stopped shooting, and authorized Postmaster Leg gett to repair the damage about $100 at their expense. OLD OCEAN SHOCKED. How an Earthquake Disturbed Mariners Off the JaTa Coast. New York, July 19. The big Calcutta ship Glenfinlas arrived yesterday after a voyage of 123 days. Captain Davies, her skipper, reported that on April 17, when about C00 miles off the coast of Java he ex perienced a terrific earthquake shock. Captain Davies says he has been sailing in the Calcutta trade "for a quarter of a century and never before had such an experience. "The weather was perfectly calm," said the Captain. "There was nbt a breath of air. The sea was as smooth as a mill pond. The atmosphere was muggy and sultry. I w as sitting at the table eating supper. Sud denly there was an almost imperceptible tremor. Then the ship trembled like an aspen leaf. I heard a rumbling, grating sound as though the 'vessel had struck a a coral reef. I rushed on deck. Dismay and terror were pictured in the faces of my men. They thought the ship was going to pieces. "From stem to stern she trembled for fully three minutes. There was a peculiar ground swell that made us think -ft e had touched bottom. The casting of the lead soon allayed our fears. I told our men what the phenomenon was. My assurances allayed their fears. None of them had ever felt an earthquake shoox before. "While the tremor lasted they were mo mentarily expecting the sea to open and swallow them. Two more shocks were felt the next dav. They were not so severe as the first one. After the last shock the weather conditions changed. A good breeze sprang up and the hazy sultry condition of the atmosphere disappeared. The seismic wave appeared to be traveling from west to east. The ship did not sustain any damage." A PUNCH AT P0WDEELY. A'Scranton Democratic Paper Condemns v the K. of It Leader's Ambition. fEPECIAIi TELEGEAM TO TI1E DlSPATCIt.1 Sctraktox, Pa., July 19. The Sunday Free Press, the most influential Democratic journal in the region, 'gave General Master Workman Powderly a severe lampooning to-day, criticising his announcement that he will stand as a candidate for delegate to the Constitutional Convention, but does not know of which party he w ill seek the honor. The Free Press thinks that no party will be anxious to weigh itself down with such a candidate under the circumstances, and hints that his present attitude is not con sistent with his published reasons for re fusing to accept a position on the World's Fair Commission. Continuing, the Free Prtts declares that Mr. Powderly's asserted fear of compromising himself by accepting favors of politicians is inconsistent with the appointment of Mr. Powderly's brother as postmaster of Carbondale, by President Cleveland, and the appointment of the sftne brother 'on the Immigration Committee, both of which resulted from the influences of the General Master Workman.

ONE MAY BE ESTABLISHED HERE. A Pittsburg Millionaire Has Just Such a Project in Mind, CHABOrS INSTITUTION AT OAKLAND The premature publication last year of the contemplated intention of a certain Pitts burg millionaire to found a public observa- 1 tory here had the effect of shelving the project for the time, but, from what is learned in well-informed quarters, there is a possibility that this gentleman may yet carry out his public-spirited proposition. Of the several hundred regular observa tories in various parts of the world, there are but two which are entirely devoted to the public use. One of these is in Germany and the other in Oakland, Oal. It was when visiting the latter institution a year ago, that the Pittsburg gentleman alluded to conceived the idea of establish ing a 'similar institution here. The astronomical observatory at Oakland was completed in 1883, and was donated to the city by Anthony Chabot. Chabot was a French Canadian by birth, and became a pioneer Californian, one of those whose names will go down into history with more tnan a purely local interest ana reputation. The Chabot Observatory. His fortune was made by the exercise of his talents as a hydraulic engineer, and was largely expended in oharity. The observa tory which bears his name is a simple edi fice, placed in the center of a public square. It is furnished with a telescope of moderate power, with all needful accessories; a fine transit instrument, with clocks, chronom eter, chronograph, etc.; books, charts, globes, and meteorological instruments, and all devoted to the public use, and to the public school instruction. The "reception room," which occupies the central portion of the structure, is a very modest apartment, of barely sufficient size to hold the books already accumulated by the observatory, with desk, gas stove and chairs. The walls are covered with star maps, spectroscopic charts, photographs and a fine oil painting of the late Mr. Chabot, who died about three years ago. The stairs leading to the dome wind around a solid pier ot masonry, extending 30 feet above the surface and 10 or 12 feet be neath the surface of the ground. This pier tapers from six feet square at the base to about one-third of that measurement at the top, and is every where distinct from the woodwork. On it is mounted the Clark equatorial, with an object-glass 8 inches in diameter, which is of course the main instrument of the ob servatory. It is provided with a fine spec troscope, a micrometer and a large battery of eye pieces. How Visitors Are Entertained. The visitors are entertained with views ol whatever good objects may be visible at the time, interspersed by explanations in response to the inquiries invariably made. Surrounding the dome is an open pla'.form from which the location of any object among the constellations may he pointed out. In the transit room are exhibited the 4-inch Fauth transit, an exact counterpart of the instrument used at the Lick Observa tory, the mean-time and sidereal clocks, the chronograph for recording observations of star transits, and the more tamiliar instru ments which are used to indicate the varying conditions of wind and weather. "Visitors are shown the different applica tions of all these instruments to the study of astronomy. They have explained to them the practical workines of a "'time service." for the astronomers at the Chabot institu tion furnish the city of Oakland with stand ard time after the most orthodox fashion. Another piece of routine work which has recently been undertaken at thiB little ob servatory is a systematic meterological record on the plan of the signal service ob servations. A self-registering barometer, thermometer and anemometer are included in the instrumental equipment, and for over a year the Oakland weather service has been in charge of the city astronomers. Outside of these two duties, the whole time of the observatory is devoted to the public enter tainment and instruction. On two nights of the week the High and Grammar schools receive instruction in astronomy. Public Lectures in Berlin. One night is devoted to the "time ob servations" necessary to the proper regula tion of the clocks, the other three even ings of the week are entirely given over to visitors. A list is kept on file at the office of the School Superintendent, and for any disengaged evening a card ot admission is given to the first applicant. These ad mission cards are in great demand. The list is usually filled up for three or four months ahead of date. The Urania Gesellschaft, in Berlin, Ger many, is a scientific academy of 375 sub scribing stockholders, with a capital stock of 5100,000. Five telescopes are at the dis posal of visitors every clear night; nearly 1,000 short lectures are annually given in a theater attached and 40 assistants are em ployed about the institution. A small ad mission fee, adapted to the means of the various classes, being the equivalent of 5 cents for school children and workingmen is charged to defray running expenses. During the first year 95,000 visitors were admitted on 202 days. The sum of $26,000 was received in the matter of fees. The in stitution was first opened to the people in July, 1889. From conversations had with scientific gentlemen of the two cities there is a ready belief that an educative public observatory here would be cordially received and used with liberality.

J., who eloped on June 29 with Wing Lee, a Chinese laundry man, who, with her abductor, was arrested In this city Saturday night, was brought to oourt with the Chinaman this morning. Wing Lee was held for trial on a charge of abduction, while the girl was placed in the care of the Society for the Prevention ot Cruelty to Children. It developed that the couple, who had not been married, went first to Philadelphia and then eame to New York. They were discovered in squalid apartments in Pell street, living as man and wife, and the police in arresting Wing Lee were met with opposition on the part of the other Chinamen in the house.

The Columbia Iron and Steel Company Is making active preparations for paying tho claims of its late employes sometime toward the end of this week, probably on Satur day.
