The custom of escorting prisoners
Into tho central police otntlun tluough
the elooiwny leading to tho cell loom
on the alley side of the building Is ad
judged n nuisance by the patrolmen.
They often have troublesome prisoners
In chargo nnd do not like to take
chances In trjlng to unlock the outer
lion eloor or waiting until the electilo
bell Is answered by the desk sergeunt,
who may bo occupied In various ways.
The patrolmen want the door kept un
locked, or they want to bilng their
prisoners Into the htntlon from the
Mulberry street side of the building
Until Chief of Police Robllng be
came the executive head of the police
department, the door to tho cell main
was kept unlocked. But ropoiteis then
had too ready access to tho cells, nnd,
It was claimed, knew too much about
what was going on In the police busi
ness, und oiders were given to keep
tho door locked. This was not so
much for tho purpose of keeping pris
oners within as It was to keep tho
nlert nevvsgatherer out. Tho electilo
push button Is at present on strike.
Under these circumstances It Is easy
to Imagine what kind of trouble a
blue-coat has to get a fighting nnd
drunken malefactor through nn Iron
barred and locked outer doorway and
the regular woode doorway.
Scranton Is unique In Its original
police custom of dragging a prisoner
direct to a cell Instead of leading him
first before the sergeant's desk, where

prisoner's presence. He should there

that Its furnishings would fuffer any

Patrick Gallagher, 1." yeats of age,
n fcon of Martin Gullngher, of Him
Jtrect, fell from a moving carriage In
tho shaft nt the Mt. Pleasant eollleiy.
West Scranton, shoitly lifter 7.M
o'clock jesterdny nioining und when
the mangled body was taken fiom tho
bottom llfo was extinct.
Gallagher was not an employe at the
eollleiy. He was going to the surface
after having failed to obtain employ
ment In tho mine when tho dteudtul
fate oveitool; him
Just how he fell from tho e-nlilage
can only ho known from the ntalemcnt
of James Mangan, a young man who
was on the cutrlngo when young Gal
lagher fell.
That statement. In Mangan's own
words, Is given below. Gallagher had
never before entered the mines. After
concluding his school days he wotked
nt the South Steel mill of the Lacka
wanna lion and Steel com pan v. Yes
teieiay moinlng at C o'clock ho Icit
homo with the Intention of securing
employment In the Mt. Pleasant mine.
Ho was permitted to go Into tho
mine nnd saw George MawEOii, the
driver boss. No employment could he
given Gallagher nnd the boy left for
tho foot of tho shaft.
TH12 FATAL R1DH.
After 7.H0 o'clock, nccoidlng to Mnn
gnn, seveial loaded cars had been
hoisted when the carriage enmo down
empty.
This was fcr the reason that nt tho
Ml. Pleasant colliery loaded cars arc
hoisted at Intervals from tho Undlng
to the "dump" at the top of the break
er. The empty cnnlage which now
reached tho bottom was to ascend to
the landing where a tended ear was
In lendlness te be put on.
Gallagher nnd Mangan were waiting
to be lifted to the surface. Mangan,
who Is 20 years of age, also having
been unable to secuie employment.
Tho boys had never met before.
The footman directed the two boys
to take tho empty carriage. Galla
gher, accotdlng to Mangan, was stand
ing In the middle of the carriage when,
the signal having been given, the cage
began to ascend
Mangan had clutched the lion sup
port on the cnnlage nnd saw young
Gallagher sink to his knees. He
reached out his hand to grasp him, hut
failed. In nn Instant the carriage was
In tho middle of the shaft nnd neither
having a light, Mangan did not know
of Gallnghet's fate until tho carriage
i cached the smfaco nnd daylight.
Then ho found himself alone on the
carriage,
T'ODY IUtOUGHT TO SURFACE.
Mungnn Informed tho workmen of tho
boy's fnto and in u short time tho dead
body was brought to the surface.
Aftervvaul the remains were removed
to Gallagher's home. Coroner S. I.
Longsticet was notified of the fatality
and last evening the remains were
viewed. The head Is terribly crushed.
No inquest will bo held pending the
leturn to the city of Mine Inspector
Henry Owen Piytheich, who orders all
inquests on mine fatalities.
Patilck Gallagher was one of eight
chlldtcn of Martin Gallagher, a mill
worker. Mnngnn, the sole witness,
lives with his paients on Utooki street,
South Scranton.
Hole Is his stoiy of the occurrence,
written last night for The Tribune;
I met this Pattlek Gnllager nt the foot
of shaft. I was standing waiting to go
ui when the cngo came down with an
empty c.ir. The foot man nskod me If
I was going on. 1 got on und so did UjI
lager. I asked him If he was down to
tho barn, no said no. Just then tho oaf,o
started nnd with tho Jerk and swiftness
of It tho boy overbalanced and went head
long between the nbutir.cnt nnd tho cage.
I tiled to catch him but nilfsed, but I
did not know v hether ho fell or not till
I got 111).
1 givo tho story to tho headman nn 1
ho told the engineer I waited there until
the boy was brought up. I looked nt him
nnd tho tlmo keeper came nnd I gave
him my name and address I might havo
fallen off m.vsolf but lor, tho hold I Imd.
1 have experience.
Wo had no lights so I did not see any
thing after tho boy tumbled. They wero
to get tho cago up to tho landing to put
on a loaded ear. I did not know the boy
and never saw him befote.
