THREE HURT
BY DYNAMITE
Serious Result of the
Celebration at Mi-
nooka.
While celebrating the coming of tho
Fourth, Alexander SSerda, of Miuooka,
and tw'o companions were seriously in
jured late yesterduy ufternoon, by the
explosion of n dynamite cap. Zerda had
his left hand blown off, nnd with one of
his comrades, who was almost blinded,
was taken to the Lackawanna hospital.
The other Injured man was able to
walk to his home, nnd received treat
ment there. His Injuries weie the least
serious of those of any one of the three.
Zerda and the other man were taken to
the Lackawanna hospital. Both are
Polanders, and It was Impossible to get
an intelligible pronunciation of the sec
ond man's name.
He was seriously Injured about the
eyes, and may be totally blinded, as a
result of the accident.
The uceident occurred about 5.30
o'clock. In West Mlnooka. The three
men were firing giant crackers, and
burning powder, and In some way the
dynamite cup was accidentally ex
ploded. The three were stunned by the shock,
and Dr. W. H. Olmstead, of Taylor, and
Dr. J. J. Walsh, of South Scranton,
were summoned to their aid. Both
physicians counseled the prompt re
moval of the two more seriously Injured
men to the hospital. An operation was
performed there, with a view to saving
the eyesight of the one unfortunate.
His condition was considered more
serious thnn that of Zerda, as In addi
tion to the injuries to his eyes, he was
also badly burned about the face and
neck.
EVE OP FOURTH QUIET.
Only a Small Amount of Celebrating
Was Done Last Night Places
to Go Today.
It hns been many many years since
the glorious Fourth was ushered In as
fyuletly and sedately as It was last
night. Practically nothing In the way
of fireworks was attempted and com
paratively few crackers were exploded.
The stringent orders of the police de
partment against cannons and cannon
crackers had much to do with lessen
ing the in dor of those who like to dem
onstrate their patriotism by creating
a din and noise that will overshadow
the demonstrations of their neighbors.
Most of the streets In the heart of the
city were crowded during the early
evening with shoppers and pleusure
seekers but by 11 o'clock they were
quite deserted.
There will be nothing In the way of a
public demonstration or general cele
bration of the day In this city but
there will be plenty of opportunity for
those who so desire to spend a pleasant
day.
Excursions will be mn today to Lake
Ariel, Lake Lodore, Mountain Park,
BInghamton and Niagara Falls. The
Elk's carnival will be' open all day,
and at Athletic park two games of
ball will be played In the afternoon.
At AVuhler's grove, Dunmore, there will
be a picnic and at the speedway, races.
Nay Aug park will undoubtedly at
tract thousands.
At tlie Country club there will be
tennis nnd golf tournaments nnd nt
night a dance und gorgeous display of
lire works.

MAY CALL OUT
THE MILITIA
SHERIFF THREATENS EXTREME
MEASURE.
As a Last Effort to Preserve Order
Without Resorting to a Call for
State Aid, the Sheriff SupplnntB
the Coal and Iron Polico at Wil
liam A. Colliery with Deputies
from His Own Office Italians Say
Thero Will, Now, Bo No More
Trouble Increase in Wages.
As a last effort to preserve order
without calling on the militia, Sheriff
Schadt, yesterday, put his own men In
charge of William A. colliery at Lacka
wanna, In placo of the Coal and Iron
police.
This move was effected, yesterday
after consultations with the company's
nttorneys, Wlllard, Warren & Knapp,
and F. Tlscar, the Italian consular
agent.
Deputy Sheriff John 13. Onftney with
a small posse was left at the mine
after the company's guard hnd depart
ed. The Italians of the William A.
communltytupon learning what had
been done told the sheriff through Mr.
Tlscor that thero would be no more
trouble, nnd that If necessary they
would furnish men to help guard the
colliery. Sheriff Schadt did not ac
cept this offer.
HAVE BEEN EMBITTERED.
Since the killing of Vlnazza, his coun
trymen have been more than ever em
bittered against the guards at the col
liery. Their ugly temper wils demon
strated In the incidents of the day be
fore when they engaged In two battles
with guards who came outside the
stockade.
Sheriff Schadt is not Inclined to do
any shooting himself and hesitates to
call on the militia. He is determined
however, that lawlessness must cease,
and if this new move towards placat
ing the disorderly Italians is not ef
fective, he can be expected to place the
preservation of order In more powerful
hands.
The new move will likely have the
desired effect. Yesterday and last night
were free from the scenes of the pre
ceding day, and even the usual as
semblages on Malri street were wanting.
Workmen at the colliery came and
went without molestation and the pro
viston wagon made Its trips without
encountering any attack.
The funeral of Vlnazza will take place
this afternoon at 2.30 o'clock, from
Cuslck's undertaking establishment on
Washington avenue. Services will be
conducted at the Italian iCatholic
church of St. Lucie, on Chestnut street,
and interment will be made In the
Cathedral cemetery.
WILL SHUT DOWN TODAY.
The washerles will be closed down to
day and all men at the mines whose
services can be dispensed with will be
given a day off.
Yesterday was devoid of any excite
ment or new developments of any Im
portance. District President Nlcholls
was In Duryea most of yesterday In
quiring into the shooting- of Vlnazza.
Secretary Dempsey busied himself at
headquarters with the preparations for
the district convention which opens In
Nantlcoke, next Monday. At the of
fices of the coal companies the uniform
report was made that situation remain
ed unchanged.
The mine employes of the Pennsyl
vania Coal company who remained
faithful to the company during the
strike were given a pleasant surprise,
yesterday, when upon opening their pay
envelopes they found their wages had
been Increased ten per cent. The raise
affects about COO men.

residents of the Electric City. Ills father was well known throughout the
valley as T. ub Dewl. Tlie elder Mr. Jones followed the occupation of min
ing, and was a member of tho executive board of the miners' committee In
the trying times of 1877, t
For eighteen years nwllym Jones worltcd In und about tho mines on the
West Side, and for two years was employed In tho moulding shops. Ho was
u resident of the Fifteenth ward for twelvo yeats, and bus always been
piomlnent as a party worker, and has a political record thut Is unassailable,
Mr. Jones has always been a time friend of the miners and a strong sup
potter of their cause In every Instance. ,,,

In' seeking the nomination for the ofllco of County Commissioner on the

bcrvlce to the people In tho conduct of the affairs of the county, all of which

serve the people well. From childhood ho hus lived In Scranton, and since
