WHAT Mil. SOKAOG SA1U.
Editor of Tho Tribune.
Sir: I dcslro to correct an error In
your report of tho Tucker & Maxey con
spiracy ease, In which It Is said I charged
John P. Reynolds, esq., with tampering
with ono of tho jurors. I did not so ac
cuse him and do not bellovo him cap
able of Buch action, hence In justlco to
Mr. Reynolds, whom 1 esteem ns a law
yer, I deem it right to state Just what
did occur. I simply called attention to
tho fact of nn alleged conversation be
tween Mr. Reynolds and Juror Hampton
which I bad, and still havo, reason to
believe took nlaro but I have assurances
that It was not solltltcd by Mr. Rey
nolds, but rather enforced upon him by
the Juror.
Por this nlleged misconduct of the
Juror thi" defenso did not attempt to hold
Mr. Reynolds responsible, but spoke, of
it as showing prejudlco on tho part of
the Juror and as n reason why he should
be withdrawn. A now trial has been
asked for nnd one of tho reasons given
Is Juror Hampton's misconduct in cx
nresslnir nn oiilnlon as to the gtillt of
defendants before all the evidence was
submitted, besides expressing an enmity
to defendants' counsel. In Justlco to
Mr. Reynolds I hone you will rIvo this
denial the same publicity as wus given
to the erroneous report.
Yours truly,
John P. Scragg.

The Traction Company.
Tho Main avenue and Jackson ttrtet
nnd Qulncy avenue cars of tho Seranton
Traction company were not run yes
terday owing to repairs being made to
engine No. 3 at the power house of the
company at Providence road. A break

A PECULIAR NEWS COLUMN.
Editor of The Tribune
Sir: Tho successful newspaper has
pot to bo nt the present day a compend
of about everything Under tho sun. Tho
successful Journal does not omit tho
butcher, tho baker nor the candle-stluk
maker any more than the lawyer, min
ister and the society people. So that It
Is remarkable what an umount and vari
ety of matter the ordinary paper con
tains. It Is quit amusing often to note
he arts and devices pursued by trades-
nen, assisted by the ingenuity of the
Jltor, to compel readers of tho Journal
take notice of wares and merchandise
..Ivertlse'd,
Ono of our Seranton papers has an
-dept In preparing a column entitled
"Green Rldgo Items." It partakes borne
what after tho naturo of vcgetablo soup
or tho free lunch sandwich. Tho posi
tions of the Items, their proximity to
each other, Including deaths, marriages,
birthB, society events, advertisements of
flesh, fish, fruit, vegetables and numer
miB trades nnd professions, nnnears fun
ny and often 'thoroughly ridiculous. Thcro
Is a grave question whether the plan
adopted In sandwiching people's names
between squaBhts, pumpkins, cabbages
and spinach Is not more detrimental than
good to the tradesmen. It Is doubtful
whether tho Intimate association of At
torney Burns with red-topped beets would
cause that eminent lawyer to seek out
the market that had them for sale. Ho
would probaly demurr and loose his up
petlto for beets or at least object to the
practice, as Incompetent, Irrelevant and
Immaterial.
Tho following Items of persons and
things will duly illustrate the plan pur
sued by tho Qrccn Ridge correspondent
of tho paper In mind:
"Attorney Ginger, who has been spend
Ing a few days at the Ridge, hns re
turned to his farm upon the Paupack."
"Cabbage and string beans nt Splkers,"
"Dr. Phyelo Is attending ft medical con
vention In Now York city."
"Green apples nnd cucumbers at Spen
cers." "Alderman Doollttlo and his constable
are fishing on Kclzer's pond,"
"Try Colo's headache powders."
"The Rev. Mr. Prayerful will preach
In the Baptist church noxt Sunday."
"Yellow-legged chickens and angel
food good for a Sunday dinner at Bny.

"Mrs. Squires, of Sanderson nvenue, is
entertaining tho Misses Gould, of Now

This and That.
To Discontinue Aid, 'Tis Said.
Among the railroad men of the Dela
ware-, Lackawanna and Western com
pany tho uppermost topic yesterday
was tho current rumor that after July
1 tho Railroad Young Men's Christian
associations along tho lines of the com
pany will havo to bo self-supporting.
It is said that President Truesdale has
decided that the company will not con
tribute towards the maintenance of tho
associations. Heretofore tho company
has made an appropriation of over $10,
000 a year to maintain tho Railroad
Young Men's Christian associations.
When seen by a Tribune man yester
day, Secretary Adair, of tho Seranton
Railroad Young Men's Christian asso
ciation, stated that ho had not heard
,of any such change.
Ofileials of the company In this i Ity
were nlso In tho dark If such f. curtail
ing of expenses Is contemplnted.
M. D. Clark tendered his resignation
ns superintendent of the Jersey South
ern branch of tho Central Railroad of
New Jersey and retired from the rail
road. J. M. Daly, superintendent of trans
portation of the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western Railroad company, will
return to the city today from New
York city, where ho has been since
Tuesday.
Commencing tomorrow morning pass
enger trains Nos. 3 and 14, which have
run from Seranton to Buffalo, will run
Sundays from this city to Binghamton,
leaving here at 'J a. m. and returning at
at 8.10 p. m.
The boys emlpoyed at the Green
wood collieries, Nos, 1 and 2, at Green
wood, who went on strlko early last
week for more wages, are still out and
.ii determined to stay out till their
Ui'tnaiids are granted.
The report that a large part of tlje
Seranton plant of the Lackawanna
Iron und Steel company is to be re
moved to Buffalo Is denied. Iron Agp.
Tho employes of the Elk Tanning
company at Mann's Choice, this state,
struck Wednesday for nn advance of
20 per cent. The company agreed to a
10 per cent advance and some of the
strikers returned to work today, but
the majority are still holding out for
their original demand.
During tho current week the Carpen
ter Steel company, of Reading, has
shipped four carloads of army projec
tiles to various government urmy
stores, and before tho end of the month
fourteen additional carloads will be
sent out from the works. The plant Is
at present running on 12-inch, army
shells.
The Railroad Gazette yesterday gave
tho preliminary figures of new railroad
building for the first six months of
1S99. They show a total of 1,181 miles.
Tho state of Por.r.rylvanla takes the
lead for the six month, with a total
mileage of 10G. Mississippi Is next with
S5 miles, and Arkansas follows with 83.
It is announced that the Keystone
Watch Case company and the Rlver
BldeWatch Case company, of Philadel
phia, havo consolidated. Application
will bo made next month at Harrlsburg
for a charter. J. Lowber Welsh will
be president of the new concern which
Is to be called the Keystone Watch
Caso company. It Is stated that both
of the watch case making plants will
bo operated Independently.
Ono afflicted with a strong; sympa
thetic nature can congratulate him
self that ho was not In, around or about
city hall yesterday. Tho sight pre
sented thcro was enough to wring a
tear from even thoso afflicted with an
extraordinarily strong, sympathetic
naturo and in the caso of a person of
s. s. n. typo copious tear3 would as
suredly have flown and lamentations
ould not possibly bo restrained In ex
treme cases of tho several times afore
said allllctlon.
It was truly sad!
One fellow creature, eiocroplU sick,
sore, halt, lamo or blind Is always a
sorrowful sight. One cannot look upon
such without feeling a pang of sym
pathetic pain.
Our hearts go out to them In their
misfortune and while wo may pas3 on
apparently unheodful ot our brother's
distress we unconsciously are remind
ed of our own better fortune and un
willingly, possibly, but nevertheless
unfailingly, thank him for what the
contrast suggests and after doing all
this sort of mental gyrating feel more
satisfied with our lot.
What must be the strain and drain
on an ordinary person to say nothing
of a person with a s, s, n. to view
hundreds of such unfortunates assem
bled In one place!
Yet, such was tho spectacle presented
yesterday at city hall and such was
tho surroundings under which the city
hall reporter had to think out hum
orous suggestions.
No, It was not In the office of the
Board of Associated Charities, the
emergency hospital, or tho poor board
rooms that these decrepit, sick, sore,
halt, lame and blind wero assembled.
It was In the ofllee of tho city treas
urer and the corridors loading thereto.
Tho street. laborers from the different
wards were being paid.

Schooley Mlno Trouble.
A conference of Pennsylvania, Mt
Lookout and Lehigh Valley mine offic
ials was held at Schooley mine yester
day, when tho Pennsylvania officials
made formal announcement to tho of
ficials ot the adjoining collieries that
they had been compelled to abandon for
tho present all efforts to remove the
flood In Schooley mine.
It wns generally agreed that the
Pennsylvania officials had done all In
their power to combat the flood. Tho
ofileials of the Mt, Lookout and Exeter
collieries whose workings adjoin 'thoso
of the Schooley, do not anticipate any
serious trouble In their mines from
water, being of tho opinion that the
barrier pillars between tho collieries
are sufficiently strong to withstand the
pressure of the flood In tho Schooley.
Plttston Gazette.
A Pittsburg Man Is tho Supreme
Archon.
Telegrams of congratulation sent yes
terday to C. G. Boland brought the
response that It wns not he who was
elected supreme archon of tho Ilepta
sophs, the telegraph despatches an
nounced. It appears that Mr. Boland was
spoken of for the ofllee but declined to
be a candidate nnd a C. V. Cohen, ot
Pittsburg, was chosen. The Associated
Press despatch received at 2 o'clock
yesterday morning had the name "C.
F. Boland, of Pittsburg."
In view of tho fact that tho Scran
Ion de-lcgatlon was booming Mr. Boland
for tho office and that It would be no
strange thing for a Buffalo reporter
to make a Plttsburger out of a Penn
Bylvanlan who come f rom, Scranton.lef t
It safe, In tho telegraph editor's mind,
to conclude that It was our Mr. Boland
who was meant.
Anyhow, Mr. Boland could havo had
the office If he wanted It.
