PENNSYLVANIA
charged wrrn LIBEL.
Justice Barry, of Luzorne Borough,
Held In $500 Ball for Appearaneo
nt Court.
AVllkcs-Unrrc, Oct. 26. William F.
Carry, a Justice of Luzerne, waa be
fore Alderman Donohtie last evening
charged with furnishing false news to
n local paper. The suit was brought
by Miss Mary Campbell', of Kdwards
vlllo, under the act of assembly of 1893.
The suit grew out of an article which
appeared In the Leader In September,
headed "Fought for Love," which gave
nn account of a supposed fight between
two of Miss Campbell's admirers who
decided to setlo their difference In a
llstlo contest, the winner to be ac
knowledged as the youns lady's ac
cepted lover, the loser to withdraw
riils attentions. The article also stated
the young lady acquiesced in this ar
rangement anil witnessed the light,
which was fought In a Held on the
West Side. At the hearing last even
ing the young lady stated that at tho
time the supposed fight took place she
was not within a mile of the place
mentioned, but, on the contrary, was
attending church with her sister. Sev
eral others witnesses, Michael Burns,
Thomas Murphy and J. J. Monohan
bore out the young lady's testimony.
City Editor Ulsdale testified that the
article In question had been published
In tho Leader, that it had been sent
to the paper through the regular co-respondent,
Mr. Barry, and was printed
In good faith; that If he had any sus
pclon the article was untrue he would
not have printed It.
After hearing the testimony the al
derman severely scored Barry for his
act of writing such an article. He said:
"A lot of you scribblers, or would-be
newspaper men make a practice of
writing up respectable people and
through false Items hold them up to
tho contempt and ridicule of their
neighbors, as in this case, by writing
untruths which you send to respectable
newspapers, thus misleading them.
There Is no respectable newspaper In
existence which would libel a person
maliciously. But at times they are
Imposed upon by such men as you.
Such articles, however, do a great In
jury to the person whose name Is men
tioned which cannot be repaired. Tou,
no doubt, thought it was a great Joke,
but we have one which wo think Is a
better one, and that is that you enter
ball In the sum of $500 for your ap
pearance at court to answer the
charge."
Burgess Donnelly, of Luzerne, quali
fied as Barry's bondsman. Attorney
Salsburg appeared for tho plaintiff and
D. B. Glldea for the defendant

MEANING OF "MINER'S TON."
In a Coal Lease Causes a Suit Which
May Involve $20,000.
Wllkes-Barre, Oct. 26. An Import
ant coal suit which Involves over $20,
000 was argued before Referee S. .f.
Strauss In the letter's olllce this af
ternoon. The ense Is that of M. AV.
Morris, I. Everett, George K. Drake,
Thomas Drake against John Jeniyn,
Joseph J. Jermyn, R. D. La-'oo and
Jeremiah B. Shifter.
The plaintiffs made a lease of cer
tain coal lands In Lackawanna to'vn
shlp practically to the defendants upon
a royalty of 10 cents per ton minora'
weight. Tho lease was made In 1563
nnd the controversy Involves the
meaning of the clause, "miners'
weight," In the lease.
Tho plaintiffs contend that tho min
ers' weight was 2,461 pounds to tho
ton of such material that came from
the mines, acceptable under th rules
of mining In vogue at the time, for
which the employer paid the miner.
The defendants claim a miners'
weight ton was such coal and refuse
that came from the mines and was ac
cepted from the men, as would make
a ton of prepared coal; also, that the
question Involved In this case was set
tled In a former suit in which the su
premo court rendered a decision which
was final and conclusive and prevents
the plaintiffs In the present case from
securing a Judgment.
Attorneys J. T. Lenohan and James
L. Morris represents the plaintiffs, and
Wheaton, Darling & AVoodward, Geo.
S. Ferris, of this city, and AA'lllnrd,
Warren & Knapp, of Scranton, are
for the defendants.
NO WORK AT NANTICOKE.
Collieries of Susquehanna Coal Com
pany Will Not Resume.
AVllkes-Barre, Oct. 26. An attempt
was made today to resume work at the
collieries of the Susquehanna Coal
company at Nantlcoke, which have
been idle three months, owing to a
strike, but without success. Not enough
of the striking minors applied for work
to warrant the conmanv In keeiilnrr thn
collieries in operation. The strikers held
a mass meeting before daylight and
heads were counted. Tho organizers of
tho United Mine Workers urged the
men to stand llrm and not return to
work. The wishes of the leaders were
obeyed. The strikers, headed by a brass
band, then gave a street parade, and
when It became known that the mines
would not resume work, the men dis
persed peaceably to their homes.
The company officials have issued a
statement in which they say they will
have no further dealings with the strik
ers looking to a compromise, but will
close down all the mines until such
time as the men are ready to return to
work.
The company has 4,000 men and boys
on Its pay-rolls. Business of all kinds
Is paralyzed in the town of Nantlcoke,
and the failure to resume work today
makes the outlook for the future a
gloomy one.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.
New York, Oct. 26. Tho evidences of
strength In yesterdny's stock market
attracted quite a largo buying Inter
est this morning and tho market dur
ing tho first hour took the upward
course, with very active trading. Tho
demand showed, however, a marked
falling off during the rest of tho dny
nnd the Isolated points of strength
which developed from time to time had
a tendency to sustain prices, but the
drift was down until the close, which
wns very generally nt a low period
of tho day. The market during the
first hour was conspicuous for the
great breadth of tho demand, the num
ber of stocks being no less than 12.".
The aggregate number of shares dealt
In was also very large. BiVadly
speaking, the market was a reversal
of that of yesterday in that railroads
generally were Inclined to re-act, while
tho Industrial stocks moved upwurd.
The evidences of profit taking In tho
coalers, which were manifest even In
the opening dealings, prompted Belling
to realize in the railroad list. Tho
outside demand for stocks was very
much Increased and It was this which
was fed by the professional operators,
who had been accumulating stocks at
the lower level. At the same time the
vigorous strength of sugar, tobacco,
Brooklyn Transit, rubber nnd other
Industrials and tho continued specu
lation In tho leather stocks, helped to
sustain the list while tho realizing was
going on. These stocks all suffered
to the extent of from 1 to 2 points
in the late downward movement. In
side support was mnlnfcst in some
of the newer Industrials, which have
been the target recently for bear at
tack. This was notably true of the
malting and glucose stocks, malting
preferred leading with a tine of nearly
6 points. The Iron and steel stocks
also received favorable attention,
especially Federal Steel, but gains in
them were no better held than else
where. There were other Individual
stocks which were strong at different
times. Including Atchlnson preferred,
on Its September statement of net
earnings, Southern Railway preferred
and Chesapeake and Ohio. The rate
for call loans dropped suddenly near
th3 closo to 2 per cent., but only after
the bulk of the day's demands had
been met at 6 to 7 per cent. Total
sales today, 603,000 shares.
The dealings In bonds disclosed tho
same breath of demand as those In
stocks, many dormant issues being
brought Into tho trading. Standard
Rope and Twine Incomes rose an ex
treme 3 and re-acted 2. The bond
list re-acted In sympathy with stocks
In the latter part of the day, making
the changes somewhat mixed. Total
sales par value, $2,193,000.
United States new 4s registered nnd
5s registered declined In the bid
price.
The range of today's prices for the ac
tive, stocks of the New York stock mnr
