FOR HANGING
OPANWFIGY
TOUR MORE TRESPASS StTITS
ARE INSTITUTED.
.Thomas Borthwick, of Duryea,
an
Engineer Employed by the Penn
sylvania Coal Company, Brings
Proceedings Against a, Quartette of
Old Forge Men Who, He Alleges,
Hung Him In Effigy Similar
Suits to Be Brought Against Seven
Others In Luzerne County Other
Strike News.
Four more actions In trespass were
tegun here, yesterdny, as a result ot
ilio practice of hanging effigies, In
dulged In by the striking mliiers, and
seven similar suits nre to be started In
Luzerne county tomorrow.
The phtlntlft Is Thomas Borthwick,
ot Duryea, an engineer employed by
the Pennsylvania Coat company. The
defendants In the cases Instituted here
nre James Brown, Charles Brown, John
Burns and Ernest Danks, of Old Forgo.
Borthwick has been In the employ of
the Pennsylvania company, as an cn
Blncer, since 1871, and continued to
work during the strike. He was an
noyed and tormented frequently by the
strikers of his neighborhood and last
veek, he asserts, the four defendants,
with others, hung him In eftlgy In front
of his home. .The effigy bore his name
and the words "This Is a Scab," pointed
In large letters.
This caused him to be subjected to
scorn and ridicule, he avers, and In
jured him In reputation. He asks dam
ages In each case in the sum of $2,000.
Capiases for the arrest of the defend
ants were placed In the hands of the
sheriff, yesterday afternoon. Ball in
the sum of $1,000 Is required.
The cases to be brought today In Lu
zerne county are against strikers living
just across the county line In Duryea.
"UNFAIR LIST" CASES.
A canvass was made yesterday by
agents of the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western and Lehigh Valley com
panies of the sixty-eight men whose
names appeared on Whe "unfair list"
posted by the United Mine Workers in
Kingston and vicinity, and upwards of
fifty of them who were seen declared
for the bringing of suits for damages
and cases of criminal libel against the
parties responsible for the notices.
Steps will be taken today to frame
the informations and secure warrants
for the defendants. Only the five men
whose names were attached to the
notices as the committee which pre
pared and posted the notices will be
made defendants. Each man whose
name appeared on the "unfair list" will
bring a separate suit for damages and
a. presentation for criminal libel against
the five committeemen.
The criminal libel proceedings will be
bi ought under the Act of March 31,
1S60, which reads as follows:
If any person shall write, print, publish,
or exhibit any malicious or defamatory
libel, tending either to blacken the mem
ory of one who Is dead, or the reputation
of one who is alive, and thereby exposing
htm to public hatred, contempt or ridi
cule, such person shall be guilty of a mis
demeanor, and, on conviction, be sen
tenced to pay a. flno not exceeding $1,000,
or undergo imprisonment not exceeding
twelve months, or both, or either, at tho
dibcretlon of court. .
District President Nicholls went to
N'antleoke ye&terday to attend the wed
ding of a relative, and while there will
make an effort to win back to the strik
ers' ranks the cngineevs, firemen and
pumprunners of the, Susquehanna Coal
company who returned to work Mon
day. MEN RETURNING.
Superintendent Bryden, of the Scran
ton Coal company, gave it out yester
day that fifteen of the company's en
gineers, firemen and pumprunners have
returned to work this week.
A number of striking miners and
laborers, who were employed at the
Sterrlck Creek colliery, at Peckvllle,
applied to the company for reinstate
ment, and were put at work filling In
cave-hotes until such time as they could
be given work In the mine. They were
set upon by a crowd of strikers and
driven away.
A flro boss, engineer and fireman who
were on their way to work at the Dela
vutio and Hudson company's Eddy
Creek colliery at Olyphant, early last
evening, were halted by a large crowd,
at the railroad crossing on Lackawan
na street and induced to turn back. All
jcpoits agree that no violence was used.
That the men did not turn back will
ingly may be judged from the fact that
nil three assured tho company officials
they would be at work today.
It was feared that an assault was in
tended by the crowd, and the company
made requisition on Sheriff Schadt for
protection. Tho sheriff responded in
person and unaccompanied went to the
scene on a special car which tho com
pany keeps in readiness at Green Rldgc
lor such an emergengy. When the
t-heriff nnived the workmen had been
turned back and tho crowd dispersed.
Another crowd collected when the sher
iff's special arrived but no demonstra
tion was made. .,
At an euiiy hour yesterday morning
I'utrolumn Price, of Plttston, caught
four young men, armed with paint pots
and brushes, decorating tho largo
brick smoke stack at the cast end of
tho Ferry brldgo with a list of unfair
workmen. They were arrested and
placed In tho city lock-up, but when
daylight camo It was discovered that
they had escaped. Some time during
tho morning they had forced the lock
on tho cell and got away unnoticed,
His Xast Hope Realised.
(From tho Sentinel, Gobo, Mont.)
In tho first opening of Oklahoma to
settlers In 1889, the editor of this paper
was among the many seekers nfter for
tune who made tho big race one fine
duy In April. During his traveling
about and ufterwurds his camping upon
his claim, ho encountered much bud
water, which, together with the severe
liofit, gave him a very severe dlar
hpeu which it seemed almost Jmpos
plblu to check, and along in June the
case became so bad ho expected to die.
One day one of his neighbors brought
him one small bottle of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
us a last hope, A big dose was given
him whllo he was rolling about on the
ground In great agony, and in a few
minutes tho dose was repeated. The
good effect of the medicine was soon
notlcrd and within an hour tho patient
was tuklng his first sound sleep for a
fortnight. That one little bottle worked
a complete cure, and he cannot help
but feel grateful. Tho season for bowel
tllhoulers being at hand suggests this

THE MARKETS
Wall Stmt RevleWi
New Yerk, June 23,-The dealings In
stocks fell to near tho low level of ac
tivity of the year again today. The
movement of prices an narrow and Ir
regular. For the principal active mocks
there was good support nml the under
tnno of tho market wee rather firm, but
there was no deposition tn buy In view
of the uncertainties hdtlg tig over the
murkot. There wns a fairly geneml up
ward movement In the early doBllncs
which probably came from tho bear trad
ers who stayed short last evening on tho
apprehension that King Kdwnrd's Illness
might terminate fatally over night. Trad
ers who bought Heading professed somo
confidence that tho strlko was breaking
up and they had news of some further
rottirns to work by strikers, but thero
wns nothing like a general demand for
tho. coalers. Colorado Fuel was moved
up 3i points on account of thn acces
sion of tho directors to take action on
tho dividend, but tho gain was entirely
wiped out without any nows reaching tho
public to account cither for the rise or
tho reaction. A late advanco In St. Paul
made tho closing steady, but very dull.
Total sales today. 2?3.'J00.
Thoro was little doing In bonds nnd
the market wns Irregular. Total sales,
par value. $2,015,000. United States bonds
were all unchanged on tho Inst call.
