An Oil Barrel Fpeentatian.
Cons:derable excitement was created In this
city no Saturday last, by a shrewd transaction
of a party of st-herners from Binghamton. This
party, consisting of a man named Pope, who
seemed to be the principal, R. O. Edwanis, and
one or two others, r.one to this city about the
midill: of last week, visite I the principal deal
ers in keinsene oil, and off:red high prices for
all empty oil b trrels. They purchased a large
number of the 3itssra Phelps. Joseph CLIMB,.
Matthews Bros., and others, and ordered them
to sent to the depot for shipment to Bing
hamton. The action of the purcintsers,and the
high priers they were offering for the barrels.
began to excite the suspicion of our business
men that nil was nut rhht, SO I it Will soon dist
ci.vensl that there was a law io thts state very
strict in its rey tirements in reference to the
calm:ll4'km of the oil inspector's stamp, and
imposing a penalty of $309 for selling or using
each barrel without defaci_g the stem?, one
half of she tine to go to the informer, and one.
half to the School Board. It was discovered
that these Binghamton men purchased only
'nth barrels as had an undisturbed stamp, and
Irian such ot our business men as would be
good for the fine. As may be inferred three
discoveries made a stir among those of our
dealers who had sold front ten to fitly barrels
apiece to these strangers, making themselves
liable to from $3,030 to $15,030 floe each, and
there was a general rush with Machete and
srrapers lo deface and destroy the stamps, Intl
if they could have got boll of these Bingham
ton chaps they would probably have defaced
their eountenans too. Sinne of the barrels
hail been sent to the depot, and thither the
scrapers hied to efface all evidence of vio:ation
of the law Mr. Pope and confederates were
arrested for conspiracy, and after a lengthy
hearing before Alilerina.. Puller,they were held
to bill in $1,033 each for their appearance at
Court.
We learn that the School Board have taken
the matter in hand, and had the merchants
who sold barrels with uncancelled stamps a r
mit ed for violatiuu of the law.—Scranton Cup

The Weßebore Bank Robbers Sentenced
The Court House at We!laboru was thorough
packed Thursday morning, there being an
inlimation that the convicted prisoners Cook
