The seventh annual state council of
the Pennsylvania State Farmers' Alli
ance and Industrial union convened In
this city yesterday and will be In ses
sion until the close of the week. The
county commissioners granted the use
of the arbitration room for the ses
sions, but on account of the nols3 ofi
repairing going on it was impossible
for the members of the alliance to
transact their business there, and
Mayo! Bailey gave permission to occu
py the common council chamber.
The aim and object of the alliance is
the advancement of agriculture In this
state, principally done by working to
ward the enactment of legislation thnt
will foster this great Industry. During
the past presidential compalgn the al
liance was heart and hand In favor of
the Issue of free silver and the Chicago
platform In general.
Twenty-one counties of the state

Hesolved, That we, assembled as state

ers' Alliance and Industrial union, do ex
tent to the muyor am council of the city
of Seranton, also to the county commis
sioners of Lackawanna county, our most
sincere thanks for the use of their beauti
ful council hall und the court house dur
ing our session. A. T. Copenhaver, L,
A. Curtis and D. M. Omwake, committee.
President Gardner then delivered his
annual address. It was as follows:
President Gardner said that this state
council Is forced to meet the great na--tional
depression which has hung like
a dark pall over the Industries and
has laden the market with extremely
low prices ot labor products.
In speaking of the presidential cam
paign Just passed he referred to It as
the most aggressive ever fought on
American soil. If the gold standard,
he said had been shorn of the Immense
money power, the country would now
be looking forward to the installation
of national ollicers who would meet the
demands of the farmers. If the silver
side had won It would mean to them
the achievement of almost an Ideal re
ward. PRESS AND PLATFORM.
One of the most prac ticable means to
carry out the educational part of the
work, which he denominated as the
most prominent feature and chief cor
ner stone of the alliance, is the lecture
system and the reform press. To
strengthen each as far as possible
fhould be the effort of the council.
He said v.e are confronted by organ
ized trusts, that are protected by our
law-making bodies, and are absorbing
the fruits of our labor with cruel and
relentless hands; and we can do no bet
ter work In the council than to recom
mend to Incoming legislators an .equal
ization of tuxes on the corporation
wealths of the state, and an equal
amount appropriated In the Interest of
agriculture that Us relative Interest
bear to the wealth of the state; and
to protest emphatically against the
continuation and formation of depart
ments with large salaries, absorbing
vt hat. might be applied to the proposed
cash road tax.
The subject of fire insurance wafl
touched upon briefly.
. In the year past the president met
with an accident nnd he expresstd his
sincere thanks to the members tor the
kindly lulorcst they manilested. In
conclusion he said that to some it mny
appear that the interest in the nlliance
is declining, but ho wished to convey
the assurance that never since the be
ginning of the organization were there
more golden opportunities than at pres
ent. With the combines, trusts, poli
ticians and foreign powers glowing in
their over confident (rrlp on American
industries, the fact is revealed that
there Is growing an urgent demand
for Increased efiorts to work as never
before, that enthroned corporations
that are by legislative authority weld
ing, link by link. the chain that will soon
destroy every right of American citl
Ecnship, may be broken.
ARMOR OF EQUAL RIGHTS.
Let us. he said," luickle on the armor
of eo.ual rights to all and special priv
ileges to none, and like the oppressed
and overburdened Egyptians appeal to
our God on bended knee, who in His
mercy hears the widows' and the or
phan's cry, and who will bring forth a
Moses of deliverance restoring the
rights gained by the heroes of '76. who
dared to bare their arm to the Invading
foe.
Vice President Copenhaver and Sec
retary Omwake made interesting re
ports; and the annual report of State
Organizer Kilmer showed that since
the last council 31 new alliances have
been chartered, two of which are coun
ty and 29 subordinates. In addition to
this there has been a number reinstat
ed. He expects that he will have or
ganized 100 new alliances by the next
council.
President Gardner gave a glowing ac
count of the National Alliance held re
cently at Washington. D. C, and stated
that the state of Pennsylvania proved
to bn the banner state of the union
in alliance work. The afternoon ses
sion closed at S o'clock and an evening
session was cauen io order at 7.30. at
which the business" taken up was the
consideration of reports from the vari
ous counties represented.

cue mission on Franklin avenue has

At the meeting of the executive com

EDUCATIONAL ANNOUNCEMENT.
Now to Secure nn Encyclopedic Die
tiomtry at a Nominnl Price.
A liberal and wholly unique offer Is
announced today by The Tribune In
connection with that great reference
library, the Encyclopaedic Dictionary.
The proposition is under the caption,
"Important Announcement to Read
ers," and will wonder how the offer
can be made. The set Is in four large
quarto volumes of over 5,000 pages, em
bellished with numerous explanatory
Illustrations. It is based on the En
cyclopaedic Dictionary Issued in Eng
land, which for over seventeen years
claimed the services of a large corps of
editors, literary workers and special
ists, among whom were such scholars
as Professor Huxley, Professor Proctor
and others standing equally high in
their several departments of knowl
edge. The labor of the American editors
and experts, of whom there were a
large number, consisted In additions
and revisions necessary to make the
dictionary thoroughly practical and
useful for Americans, not only the
scholastic and literary, but the busily
occupied man of affairs, who wants to
know quickly, concisely and accurate
ly about words, things and facts claim
ing his notice from day to day.
In this regard the encyclopaedic fea
tures are of paramount value since
one Is enabled to practically dispense
with all other reference works, If the
Encyclopaedic Dictionary Is at hand.
The subscription price of the work Is
$42.00, but The Tribune now offers a
limited number of sets on terms which
amount to only 5 cents a day, this be
ing done by special arrangement with
the publishers to introduce and ad
vertise the work. Prompt action la
necessary In order to take advantage
of this offer for these few sets will be
placed in a short time.
It should be noted that anyone not
finding the work precisely as repre
sented may return the same within
ten days, nnd the payment will be at
once refunded.
The Encyclopaedic set constitutes a
superb Christmas gift which will cause
the giver to be ever held In grate
ful remembrance.
AMUSEMENTS.
Tomorrow night's attraction at the
Frothlngham will be Chauncey Olcott
in "Mavourneen." The performance
will be given as a benefit for the Seran
ton Bicycle club and an overllowing
house is probable. "Mavourneen" Is
the work of Augustus Pitou and George
H. Jesstip. and Is a charming picture of
life on the "Ould Sod," over a century
ago. Although the play is rich In hu
mor and Hibernian witticisms, it is not
a satire or burlesque, Mut a true pic
ture from real life. The peasant, as h
Is depicted in it, still goes his happy
way among his native mountains and
the prototype of Chauncey Olcott's
Irish lad can be found everywhere in
the land of the shamrock.
Friday evenin? attraction at the
Frothlngham Is Frank Daniels and his
company In "The Wizard of the Nile"
which so captivated theatregoers last
season. Mr. Daniels work in this opera
hns placed him in the front rank of
light opera comedian. His supporting
company still continues to Include
Loulne Royle, Walter Allen and Leo
nurd Walker In the roles they created
last season. The only new face Is that
of Cleopatra, this season assumed by
Miss Edna Thornton, a recent gradu
ate from a four years' course of study
under LaGrange in Paris. '.
"Hiilarity In McFaddon's Row of
Flats" w ill certainly prove a' refresh
ing novelty at Davis' theater the last
half of this week. It Is claimed by the
management that his season's produc
tion eclipses ill previous efforts. The
specialty featvres are exceptionally
good and serve $p introduce Miss Ruby
Lytton, Sisters .Vnntlne and others.
New music has been written and two
entire new sets of scenery made, which
show the apartments of Herman Mai
mer In "McFadden's Row of Flats,"
which Is especially deserving of the
highest praise and must be seen to be
appreciated.

A STR0NQ PLEA FOR CONVICTION
District Attorney Tells a Jury in the
Hicks Uobbery Case That They Had
a Duly to Perform Such as no Other
Jury Una Been Called Upon to Per
,1'onu in the Present Session of
Crintiunl Court.
' One of the strongest pleas for con
viction that District Attorney Jones
has made to a Jury during the present
session of criminal court was that
which he made yesterday for the con
viction of John, alias Richard Hicks,
charged with assaulting and robbing a
young man from Green Ridge named
Bert Cisco. lie painted the crime as
one of the most dastardly In the cal
endar and contended that It Is becom
ing so frequent of late that unless it Is
checked by summary and severe pun
ishment It w ill not be safe for a man
to walk the streets after nightfall. He
told the Jurors they had one of the
most Important duties to perform that
any jury had been called upon to per
form during the present term and he
urged them, fairly begged them, to do
their duty fearlessly and fairly and
show by their verdict there was no
pluce In Seranton for thugs.
Cisco alleges that on the night of
March 4, Hicks and another man
named Patrick Mullarkey induced him
to go with them on a slumming tour.
They led him down near the Dickson
works and attempted to'rob him there
but were prevented from carrying out
their designs by the approach of a
pedestrian. They afterwards caught
up to htm In a field between Wyoming
avenue and Forest court and relieved
him of his money after giving him
a severe drubbing.
Hicks tried to make out that it was
Mullarke- who did the robbing if any
was done He admitted that he had a
fight wit I Cisco but denied that there
was any robbery committed as far
as he was concerned. The Jury went
out at adjournment. Hon. T. V. Pow
derly was assigned to defend Hicks.
SHE WAS COERCED.
Maria E. Myers was charged by Con
stable Daniel Healey, of Fell, with
keeping a tippling house but she was
acquitted on the technical grounds that
she was acting under the coercion of
her husband and was therefore not
unswerable. O'Brien & Kelly defend
ed her.
Michael Coyne, by advice of his at
torney, John J. Murphy, pleaded guilty
of assault and battery on Frank Rohan.,
Coyne who is a watchman at the lower
mill, struck Rohan over the head with
his club in mistake for a tramp. Ro
han's attorneys, Quinnan & Donahoe,
argued that the offense was a serious
one as the assault had been committed
without any provocation, it being their
contention that the watchman had no
right to commit the assault even if the
victim were a trump. Mr. Murphy
stated that Rohan after being aroused
by the watchman, became belligerent
and that force had to be used on him.
Judge Archbald thought that the of
fense was not of a serious nature and
allowed the defendant to go upon the
payment of $10 and costs.
Anthony McKoolsky was returned
guilty of striking Frank Minoski, with
a beer glass, during a saloon fight in
Providence. C. W. Dawson appeared
for the defendant.
On the advice of his attorney, T. J.
Duggan, Thomas Gibbons pleaded guil
ty of assault and battery on George
O'Neil, sr., and was sentenced to pay
a fine of $5 und costs.
Matthew Hredofski, of Carbondale,
charged his boarder Adam Sewestskl
with usurping his marital prerogatives,
but as te could enly prove that the
boarder bought beer for his wife. Dis
trict Attorney Jones declined to ask
for a conviction.
QUARREL OVER CHILDREN.
George Marchell, of Carbondale, was
tried for assaulting and battering his
tenant, Mrs. Mary Hennery, but when
the evidence showed that It was Just a
neighborly quarrel over children the
jury said not guilty and divided the
costs. The same disposition was made
of the case in which Thomas Hohan
was charged by L. S. Bright with as
sault and battery. Attorney John Bon
ner appeared for the defense and At
torney A. A. Vosburg assisted in the
prosecution.
Silas Millar tried Monday for robbing
George Tucker was returned guilty yes
terday morning. Sentence was de
ferrred. Prosecution was withdrawn by Wil
liam Westpfahl yesterday In the cases
In which Elizabeth Westpfahl, alias
Elizabeth Achter, was charged with
bigamy and Its attendant offenses and
the one In which he charged William
McLoughlln with being concerned In
Mrs. Westpfahl's alleged evil doings.
A capias was issued for the defend
ant In the case of the commonwealth
against Thomas Jordan. Joseph Shu

had his bail declared forfeited
absolutely. Sullivan Mager was sen
