Gayluee, of Scranton; Michael llunkc and

A cnno upon which much possible
future litigation depends Is now on be
foro Judge Archbald In the main court
room. It Is an notion In treFjmss to
reeover for damane cnused to land by
culm bclntv washed upon It by a nat
ural stream which Hwceps the foot of
a culm bank. A. W. Brundage, of
Peckvllle, Is tho plaintiff and the Blue
Itldgt! Coal company tho defendant.
Mr. Brundnge owns a plot of land In
Peckvllle on which three houses have
been erected. A creek which flowo
past tho workings of the Blue Illdjro
company a mile above thu town also
Hows ist the land of tho plaintiff.
Culm has been carried by the stream
from the company's dump, It Is alleged,
and deposited on the plaintiffs prop
erty making tho ground useless and
the houses untenable. He places his
damages at $10,000. W. S. Hulslander
and Vosburg & Dawson represent the
plaintiff, and II. C. Reynolds and War
ren & Knnpp, the defendants. The ilrst
witness for the plaintiff Surveyor Td
mund Bartl, was on the stand at ad
journment. Another unusual case Is on beforo
Judge Ounster In No. 2. It Is that of
Richard J. Delevan, of Carbondale,
against the Lackawanna Valley Rapid
Transit company. He sues for dam
ages for Injuries which Ms wife Is al
leged to have sustained In a street car
collision nar the White bridge In Car
bondale, July C, 1895.
ADMITS LIABILITY.
The action Itself Is quite ordinary,
but the trial has this unusual and pos
sibly unique feature that the defend
ant admits liability. As a consequence
of this tho jury will be called upon to
simply fix tha amount of damages.
O'Brien & Kelly represent the plaintiff.
Horaeo K. Hand and Watson. Dlehl,
Hall & Kemmerer appear for the com
pany. The plaintiff's testimony was to tha
effect that Mrs. Delevan suffered from
the shock to such an extent that sho
was laid up in bed for nine days,
could not leave the house for two
months, nnd that her health Is still
and always will be Impaired. The de
fense which will begin the presenta
tion of testimony this morning Is that
Mrs. Delevan was not Injured to the
extent she claims. They will call Doc
tors Bailey and Thompson who at
tended Mrs. Delevan and who, It Is
stated, will testify that she was not
injured to any great extent.
In the case of Mrs. Ellen O'Donnell
against Patrick Golden a. verdict for
the defendant was found after half an
hour's deliberation. Bridget Mullaney
died In August, 1893, owing- Mrs. O'Don
nell $112.30. Her property went to her
son, Peter J. Mullaney, and he In turn
sold it to Patrick Gollden. It Is clalm
ei? by the plaintiff that at the time
of the transfer Golden agreed to as
sume the debt. The defendant alleges
that no mention of tho debt was made
and no reference made to any claim
other than a $30 note -which Golden
agreed to be responsible for and which
lias been paid.
POINT RESERVED.
Had the verdict been for the plain
tiff It would have been a conditional
one as Judge Archbald reserved for
more deliberate consideration the ques
tion as to whether or not the plaintiff
had proceeded properly to have her
claim satisfied, Mr. Scragg, attorney
for tho defense, raising the point that
an administrator should have been ap
pointed and the estate sued within two
years after the death of Mrs. Mullaney.
A verdict for the defendant was ren
dered In the case of A.C. Fuller against
Daniel Elslnger. It was a dispute over
the rental of tho old stove works piop
erty on West Lackawanna uvonuc.
The following eight of the 3u i -ses on
the list for this week were continued:
Patrick Malla, against Scranton Trac
tion company, Stower's Pork Packing

liam R. Mntthews; John Courtright

ton Traction company; New York,

pany against tha Pennsylvania, New
York Canal and Railroad company; W.

Five more burglaries were committed
Sunday night, or yesterday morning.
Millar & Peck's china store, at 134
Wyoming avenue, and tho ofllces of
John A. Duckworth, architect, and II.
W. Llvlnustone, agent for the Colliery
Engineer Home Study publications In
tho Coal Exchange and U. P. Oster
hout's general store and Howard Grif
fin's drug store, North Scranton, were
tho places entered.
Miliar & Peck's place was entered
through a trapdoor In the hallway, by
which the janitor Is accustomed to go
Into the cellar to fix his fires. From
tho cellar there Is a stairway leading
to a door, which opens Into the store.
The casing about the lock socket was
cut awav with a chisel and the door
readily opened.
Tho cash drawer was taken behind
a screen which partitions the office
from tho store and opened by working
tho comb lnatlon. It contained $9.75,
nnd ull of this was taken with the
exception of a quarter, which was
dropped upon the floor. It is probable
that tho burglars were frightened
away as none of the silverware or
china was disturbed as far n Is known,
and a package of stamps which had
been taken from an office drawer, wero
left behind on a chair.
The Coal Exchange burglaries were
unquestionably committed by the same
gang that entered the Jewelry store.
How they cot Into tho Coal Exchange
Is not known, but that they were there
both Mr. Duckworth and Mr. Living
stone will testify.
Mr. Duckworth's office was entered
through a window which opens on the
corridor. In the recent Coal Exchange
fire Mr. Duckworth lost nearly all his
drawing tools, and he was compelled
to Durchaso a new set. These tools
were gathered up from the tables by
the burclars, placed In their appro
priate cases and taken away. Thirty
or forty dozen lead pencils and $8,
which was contained In Mr. Duck
worth's boy's savings bank, were also
seized upon. The private office was
then entered and ransacked.
The private office of H. W. Living
stone, which connects with Mr. Duck
worth's private office, was entered
through the unlocked connecting door.
The roll top desk was pried open with
a Jimmy and the papers scattered
about but no valuables were found in
the desk. A mathematical text book
and a box of underwear belonging to
John W. Clarke, traveling agent for
the Home Study publications, was all
that was taken from this office.
The thieves then evidently returned
to the architect's office, helped them
selves to some of Mr. Duckworth's
good tobacco, enjoyed a smoke,
knocked their pipes out on the floor
and gathering up a new hat, overcoat
and pair of patent leather shoes, to
gether with the booty aforementioned,
took their departure.
All they left behind was a Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western ferry
ticket from Hoboken to New York, and
a box which had contained "Lancer"
matches.
Two business houses In North Scran
ton were entered by burglars Sunday
night, and the cash registers rifled of
their contents. The grocery store of
N. P. Osterhout was visited. An en
trance being effected by breaking a
pane of glass In the rear of the store.
The burglars molested nothing save
the cash register, which was robbed of
$9.
The next place visited was Howard
Griffin's drug store, on North Main
avenue. At this place but small com
pensation was obtained for the trou
ble Incurred, the amount taken being
$1.50. The visitors gained entrance to
the latter place In exactly the same
manner as Osterhout's.
The work was probably done by amateurs.
In order to determine tho present
condition of the anthracite trade In this
valley, a Tribune reporter yesterdny
made Inquiries of a number of officials
representing Individual operators and
found, without exception, satisfaction
regarding tho coal trade of today und
a belief in prosperous mining during
tho remnlnlnc months of tho year.
From the Information obtained It ap
pears that, while ruling prices aro ns
usual below tho established circular
figures, the prices aro generally main
tained, the big carrying companies are
very nearly abiding by their allot
ments; that the number of working
days per month show a uniform activ
ity In mining, nnd that the output
promises to continue normal nnd
steady up to tho end of the year.
Several opciators wore interviewed
and thcso represented tho smaller, the
average and tho greater of the Indiv
idual mining companies. But In order
to express tho combined sense of all
the Information obtained, one Inter
view will suffice. It was by a member
of a mining firm which Is neither among
tho smallest nor tho largest of the
mining companies. He said:
CONDITION OF THE TRADE.
"I believe the coal trade is at this
time better than was anticipated sev
eral months ago and I can see no evi
dences of a reaction: in fnct, tho re
maining months of 1S97 will, at least,
continue to show a normal output bas
ed on the present time. When this
year's allotment of 40,009,000 tons was
made a margin was provided ngalnst
the ral expectations of the market,
but Indications aro that not less than
3S,000,0C0 tons w'll to shipped. The
carry'ng companies have generally
abide! bv the allotment; they havs
done better In this respect than ever
before, olthough a few of the compan
ies Wire given a greater tonnage than
they propcri.'outitelv destined, accord
ing to the 3i90 shipments.
"I undiv.-rnnd the Delaware and
Hudson nnd Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western mlntp are working from
13 to 18 days a month. That Is tho top
notch in this rep'nn and Is due to the
slightly unfair allotment before men
tioned. The Lehigh Valley individual
shippers have made about the same
time, which is more than is possible
by collieries along the New York, Sus
quehanna nnd Western and tho Erie
roads if tho two latter continue to
abide by the tonnage assigned thorn.
In thin connection It' should be borne
In mind that tho Delaware, Lackawan
na and Western and Delaware and
Hudson companies are largely carriers
of their own coal.
"The Hazleton strike has hnd no
perceptlblo effect In incrcnslng' tho
shipments from other localities ni tho
Hazleton companies will themselves
catch' up with their own lost tonnage.
PRESENT CIRCULAR PRICKS.
Tho present circular prices nro those,
established In July ns follows nnd at
a UG-eont advance over preceding
prices:
Broken $1 no
ERP t 75
fitovo IN
Chestnut , 4 IB
At that time nn ndvnncc of IS cents
had been mndc on lino prices and of
25 cents In the western market,
"Circular prices nt tidewater were
never sustained and are nut now but
tho real prices more closely approach
tho circular now than ever lefore, and
as long ns this is an tho operators havo
little cause for complaint. This year
the circular prices .are good crltcrions
of tho actuality, but tho samo could
not be snld In past years.
'CoaI, with its mining, prices nnd all
th'at goes with such nn Immonso In
terest, Is such a vast nnd fickle prob
lem that what Is stated truthfully to
day may bo untrue tomorrow. My
views may bo unsustnlned by tho ef
fect that gas and tho low price of tho
bituminous product may havo on an
thracite. It may show a largo curtail
ment of tho consumption of anthracite
that will not be correctly determined
until the necessary data Is obtained at
tho end of the year.
"Circular prices are tho same now
as In July nnd the real prices nro about
tho same ns at that time. There has
not been the usual Indiscriminate cut
ting. I rather think there will soon
tome nn advance, probably this month,
when It usually does occur, and it will
likely reach 25 cents.
SAME WAGES PAID.
"In discussing mine labor, It cannot
very well be divorced from mine capi
tal. We are paying in our mines the
samo wages as in 18SG, eleven years
ngo, the same price per car. This, I
think, Is quite true of the whole Lacka
wanna region. Miners are not earning
as much" as formerly because they are
not working ns much. The same ap
plies to the operator.
"The latter has to prepare his coal
better nowadays. It goes Into market
almost perfect and better than ever be
foro but at an Increased cost In preparation."
