This and That.
Carpenters are now engaged In con
verting the 'No, 1 breaker at Jeansvllle
f .into a vashery. It will require a few
. weeks at least before the plant will be
eii operations.
, Hereafter the Lehigh Valley bag
gugemasters will have to sign their
; train -number and time of receiving
any valuable letter or packages. The
same rule applies to local station
BBrni
To meet the demand caused by the
gar
no Increased passenger business of the
Krle, a total of twenty-two special en
gines have been secured and orders
have been given for entirely new equip
ment for a number of the best passen
ger trains.
Record-breaking runs are expected
by the Erie's new engines. They are
of the ten-wheel class, with drivers
seventy-eight Inches In diameter. The
combined weight of the engine and ten
dor Is 131 tons. The working steam
pressure will bo 210 pounds to the
square Inch.
The action of the Delaware and Hud
son In enlarging the axles of their
freight and passenger cars Is to be
commended. The old axle though dur
able, occasionally became bent and
sometimes broke, but the ones now In
use will last a lifetime. The new axle
is tlfteen Inches In circumference and
live Inches In diameter.
There Is an unusual activity dis
played by the numerous railroads cen
tering In this city. Kvery train Is
twice Its usual size and every car Is
packed to Its utmost capacity. The
freight hands at the vnrlous depots
have more work than they can pos
sibly handle. Consequently an extra
force Is necessary. The Delaware and
Hudson yards are all stocked with
loaded freight cars. Every kind of
merchandise mentlonable Is being1 un
loaded at the . depot and the various
merchants about town have their
teams busily engaged hauling the goods
to the stores. Wllkes-Barre News.
While improvements are noted on
most every railroad In the country,
none perhaps Is more acceptable than
the Brown system recently Inaugur
ated on the Delaware and Hudson. In
stead of a man being suspended under
the present system for lnnttentlon or
neglect, he Is given a demerit mark and
when ho receives a certain number of
these he is discharged. But In the
meanwhile If he does something that
is worthy of a merit mark the demerits
are erased. However, If a man received
no demerits and an occasional merit
mark he receives nn advancement.
Work will begin In a few days on a
new freight terminal or tno Lack
awanna railroad which Is to be estab-
Ilshed on property recently purchased
In Brooklyn. An Immense freight
warehouse for freight, probably tho
largest In Brooklyn, will be con
structed there This property was oc
cupied for many years as a lumber
yard. It Is particularly valuable us a
railroad terminal and for a number of
years various transportation companies
have tried to secure It. Tho establish
ment of this termlnnl will give the
Lackawanna a freight service Into and
from Brooklyn that Is not surpassed
by any other railroad,
OLIVA THUMPED MOLTER.
Latter Tried to Protect Mrs. Ollva
from Her Husband's Fury.
The casi of Peter Molter against
Peter Ollva, both dwelling near Moun
tain I.ukc, was yesterday heard by Al
derman Kaeson. It seems that last
Friday night Ollva was giving his
wife a severe beating, and she lied
from the house over to tho restdeneo
of Peter Molter, where she sought re
fuge from her husband.
About 10 o'clock Ollva appeared on
tho scene with a pistol and demanded
his wife. Molter refined to surrender
tho woman and Ollva at last left the
place in high dungeon.
At midnight he madn another ap
pearance, this time armed with an
axe, which Molter managed to take
nway from him and then got him out
of the place.
A lew days nfter this Ollva had Mol
ter arrested and Molter then sttuc't
back by swearing out u warrant be
fore Aiuerman Jtasson for ouva's ar
rest on the chargo of assault and bat
tery, ho having struck him several
blows during their sculflo over the wo
man. Ollva was held In $.V0 ball and found
a bondsman In Edward Fruble, of
Stone avenue.

JOHN WOOD AND HARRY LUTZ
TRIED YESTERDAY.
It Was Alleged That They Conducted

Registered Pharmacist Beale Em
bezzlement Case Given to the Jury
During the Afternoon Cora Bur
nett Pleaded Qullty . to Having
Committed Perjury Fuller Not
Guilty.
John Wood and Harry Lutz, of o;d
Forge, were arraigned before Judgi
It. W. Archbald yesterday on the
charge of Illegally selling drugs, pre
ferred by Charles T. George, secretary
of the state pharmaceutical board.
Wood Is proprietor, or supposed to be
proprietor, of the Lackawanna phar
macy, and Lutz Is alleged to be his
clerk. Neither Is a registered pharma
cist, It Is claimed, and neither ever
had any training In compounding pro
scriptions, except what little Mr. Wood
received from a correspondence, school
In Chicago.
The principal witness for the prose
cution was K. William Stultz. of Phil
adelphia, a detective from the Ribcrt
J. Linden bureau. Ho was sent to Old
Forgo to gather evidence against th
defendants last August and after n few
days work succeeded, so ho claims, in
purchasing rough-on-rats. nux vont'e.
and other poisons nml nlso In having
Wood and his clerk put up preu'ilp
tlons for him. He exhibited the pur
chases In court.
ATTACKED THE INDICTMENT.
J. T. McCuIlom, attorney for the de
fondants, tried at the outset of the
trial to quash the Indictment, on
the ground that the Act of 1S07, under
which it was brought, was unconsti
tutional. Court, however, denied his
motion. M. W. Lowry Is assisting Dis
trict Attorney Jones In the prosecu
tion. The embezzlement case against At
torney George W. Beale was given to
the Jury yesterday afternoon. The
missing witness, Luclnda Cook, whose
absence on the previous day caused a
suspension of the trial, was on hand
In the morning and gave the testi
mony the defense claimed she could
give, namely, that she was present
when Mrs. Mead directed Mr. Dcalo to
Invest her money In the Morris Ridge
Coal company. George Finn, another
witness for the defense, testified thtt
Mrs. Mead called upon him to ask r.ls
opinion about the Morris Ridge com
pany. The prosecution put on a nambr of
witnesses to prove that Mrs. Mead wns
physically Incapable of visiting M
Beale's ofllco In the summer of lSl'3.
when the conversations In question ire
alleged to have taken place lliere.
The Jury was still out at a late hour
last nlcht.
VERDICT OF NOT GUILTY.
A verdict of not guilty was returned
in the case of William V. Fuller, the
Carbondale market man, charged by
Constable E. J. Neary with the larceny
of his own market fixings and house
hold goods, which were under levy.
The defense convinced the Jury that
the constable failed to properly notify
the defendant that the goods were
levied upon.
Cora Burnett, one of the girls who
figured In the alleged knock-out drop
case at the Columbia hotel, and who
swore before the Jury dramatically op
posite to what she swore before the
grand Jury, plead guilty when called
for trial for perjury yesterday after
noon and was sentenced by Judge
Archbald to six months in the county
Jail.
William James, charged with as
sault and battery on Edwin G. Hughes
and Barnet Kabatznlck, charged with
a Ilka- offense against Louis Tracht
enberg, did not respond for call and
the sheriff was sent for them.
