CANNOT PREVENT
PILLAR ROBBING
IMPORTANT DECISION HANDED
DOWN BY JUDOE EDWARDS.
If the Purchaser of the Surface Ac
cepts n Deed Wniving Damnges
That May Result from Taking Out
the Reserved Coal He Must Abide
by tho Consequences No Mattel
What Injury May Result to His
Property Guernsey Trespass Suit
for $12,000 on Trial.
If the mineral reservation clause In
a deed for a surface lot specifics that
the miner can take out all the coal
without being liable to damage to the
surface, court can not prevent him
fiom lobbing pillars, even though such
mining should cause great damage to
tho surface owner.
Such Is tho decision handed down
yesterday by Judge Kdwaids In tho
case, of Dennis McDade and others
of Dunmoie tignlnst A. D. & F. M.
apencer. As many of the properties
nil through this valley were deeded
with n similar leservatton, the decision
Is ot much moment. It Is tho llrst
thno tho question has been passed
upon.
The plaintiffs are lot owners In Dun
moie They complain that tho de
fendants are mining coal fioin under
their lots and piopertles udjncent
theieto without leaving sulllclent sup
poit under tho surface, and are taking
out the pillars, thereby lemovlng the
supports usually and ordlnnrlly left In
mining coal, and which nre necessary
fot the safe maintenance of the sui
face; nnd that, as a consequence, tho
properties of the plaintiffs are being
Injured and may ultimately be de
destroyed. The answer of the defendants. In
substnnce, nvers that they have a right
to mine all the coal; that thev nre
not hound to support the surface, nnd
that the plaintiffs have not, In pur
chasing their respective lots, ncquhed
any light to surface support, but that
all claims for Injuiy to tho surface or
Improvements thereon erected, by rea
son of a failure to piovlde such sup
poit, Incidental to the removal of all
tho coal beneath the surface, were ex
pressly waived In the several convey
ances of their lots to the plaintiffs
made by their crantois.
By the tetms of the conveyances
through which the plaintiffs dotive ti
tle, tho coal and minerals beneath the
suifaco are excepted nnd reserved In
the following language: "Hxceptlng
and leservlng to Kdvvnrd Spencer, his
heirs and assigns, all coal and minerals
beneath tho surface of said lot of land,
with the sole and exclusive right to
mine and remove the same by any
subteiranean piocess, without thereby
Incuulng, in any event whatever, any
liability for Injury cnused or damage
done to the surface of said land or to
the buildings or Impiovements, which
now arc or hereafter may bo erected
theieon,"
After a lengthy discussion of the
law in tho case, Judge Hdwauls states
tho following pioposltions ns being cor
icct. 1 Where theic ha3 been a scpiratlon
of the mlnewils fiom tho bUifaie, the
ownii of the mlneinl estate, in tho ab
sence of an agreement to tho contrary,
owes a servitudo to tho superincumbent
i state of sulllclent (.upport
2 Thero Is no custom of mining which
permits tho owner of a miner il estate to
lemovo tho suppoits and allow tho sui
face to sink 'J his ptoposltlou Is not in
volved in tho caso at bar.
3 The impllul light of support to tho
surface may, howevei, be excepted fiom
the giant by apt words in tho deed, and
where such exception has been made,
tin grantoi or those who claim under
him may mine nil the coal, even though
by such mining the surfneo may full In
Applying these to the ease at bar, he
nnkes the following foinial finding:
"The exception in tno conveyances
fiom Edwiud Spencer to the plaintiffs
Is In such terms and is of such a char
acter as to modify the general rule of
law as to surface saippoit, and pie
eludes the plnlntiff3 from the recovery
of damages for Injury done to their
properties by the defendants on ac
count of the icmoval of tho coal be
neath the surface."
Ho then dissolves the piellmlnary
Injunction at the cost of the plaintiff.

SUB-POSTOFFICE
FOR WEST SCRANTON
WILL BE IN OPERATION AFTER
JULY 1 NEXT.
All of the Carriers Who Now Serve
That Part of the City Will Be At
tached to the New Office and John
Henry Phillips, One of tho Oldest
Carriers in tho Service, Will Be the
Superintendent Ho Will Have the
Asslstanco of a Clerk in Transact
ing Business of Office.
Beginning with July 1 next Weat
Scranton will have tho sub-postoIUce
for which the people of that part of tho
city have been clamoring.
When tho matter was tnken up re
cently by the West Scrnnton board ot
trade Postmaster 13..II. Ripple gave the
plan his hearty endorsement and when
the assistance of Congressman Con-
nell was asked ho took up the matter
with his customary energy and has
succeeded In getting tho postofllce de
partment to establish tho postofllce
asked for. It will be of great conven
ience to tho people of that portion of
the city.
The location of the sub-postofllce
has not yet been agreed upon, Post
Office Inspector Gorman being now en
gaged in trying to locate a suitable
building, He says it should be of brick
nnd very centrally located.
The pioposed sub-postofTIco will do
its business entirely through the cen
trlal postofllce, but aside from this
will have all the functions ot n nost
olllce, such ns the receiving1 and dls
tilbutlon of all kinds of mall matter,
sale ot stamps, registering of letters
and Issuing of money orders. All of
the carriers supplying the West Scran
ton district will receive their mall
from tho sub-postoffice and make their
returns to It. This will enable the car
riers to serve larger districts, for tho
reason that the time of going to and
from West Scranton in the cars will
be saved.
SUPERINTENDENT AND CLERK.
Tho postolllce department has al
lowed a superintendent nnd one clerk
for tho sub-postollice, the superintend
ent to be one 01 the carriers. It has
been figured out by the department
that the time the carilers will save by
having tho sub-postofllce established
will be equal to twelve hours a day or
a day and one-half of working time.
This will make It possible to reduce tho
force of carilers by one and still make
the seivlce better than It Is now. This
will permit of one of the carriers being
made a superintendent at a salary of
$1,000 per year. John Henry Phillips
has been selected for the superintend
ence. He Is one of the oldest carriers
In ,the service here.
The other carriers who will be at
tached to the sub-postofllce are E. S.
Evans, Thomas O, Williams, George
A. Jones( Thomas R. Jones, Walter
McNIcholas and W. J. Cannon. Henry
Bird, who now delivers In the north
end of West scranton and the south
end of North Scranton, may or may
not be attached to the branch ofilce.
While the lines of the district that
will bo fccrved from the sub-office has
not been definitely decided upon, It
can, In a general way, be said that It
will Include the territory west of the
main line and the Blopmsburg divi
sion of the Delaware, LacKawanna and
Western railroad. The northern divi
sion line will be In tho neighborhood
ot Tilpp's park, and It will extend to
the city line on the south. It Is esti
mated that to this territory Is dellv
cied about one-sixth of the entire mall
of the city.
DETAILS NOT WORKED OUT.
The details of the operation of the
branch postofllce have not yet been
woiked out. A mnn will bo employed
to carry the mall from this city to
West Scranton, but whether the mall
from West Scranton will be sent in
bulk or distributed here for carriers
has not been definitely decided upon.
As soon as the sub-postofllce is es
tablished the sub-station that Is now
in operation over there will bo dis
continued. At present the business portion of
West Scranton has three deliveries a
day. It will not be known until the
sub-postofllce is In actual operation
whether the business people of that
part ot the city can bo given additional
service.
