said that he was unfair to organized
labor, For certain reasons I was so en

KILLED HIS COMPANION.
Sad Effect of a Shot Accidentally
Fired by Young Seembach Lat
ter Gave Himself Up.
Joseph Hornbeck, an 11-year-old boy,
who lived with his mother at 608 Elm
street, was accidentally shot through
the heart and killed, Saturday after
noon, by his friend, Michael Stelnbach,
of 1023 Plttston avenue. Stelnbach, who
is 19 years of age, was held without
ball, by Magistrate Howe, yesterday
morning in police court, to await
further developments.
The mother of the dead boy is con
vinced, however, that the shooting wa3
acldcntal, and will not prosecute. Coro
ner J. F. Saltry will hold an inquest
this morning, at his office. The shoot?
Ing took place near the swimming pool
at No. 5 dam, on the banks of Meadow
Biook.
The boys had left their homes early
In the nfternoon for a swimming jaunt.
The other members of the party were
all older than Hornbeck, and he was
supposed to be In charge of Stelnbach.
After 2 o'clock in the nfternoon, the
hoys began shooting birds, taking al
ternate shots. When It was Steinbach's
turn, ho climbed the bank of the Rapid
Transit load, and as he gained the
level, turned towards tho other boys,
and began to load his ride.
The muzzle of the weapon was pointed
at Hornbeck, who stood about six feet
distant. Stelnbach Inserted a 22-short
cartridge. He closed the breech, and as
he attempted to carefully lower tho
hammer, it suddenly snapped. There
was an explo.slon, and little Hornbeck
fell to the ground, with a shriek.
He died shortly afterwards. The boys
with him claim that they had difllculty
i,ii ilnding a place to which to take tho
boy bcfoic he died, and that they were
driven from an empty shed of the
Enamel Stone company, where they
carried hint. Stelnbach, pale and calm,
but evidently suffering great distiess
at the terrible deed he had unwittingly
done, surrendered to Detective Robert
Deiter, at police headquarters.
Coroner Saltry performed no autopsy,
but declared that from nil external ap
peal ances and the suddenness of death,
the bullet must have lodged In the boy's
heai t,

DEMOCRATS SEEK TO
GAIN ON THE STRIKE
Congressional Committee Anxious
for the Renomlnation of Connell,
Palmer and Patterson.
A special dispatch from Washington
to the Philadelphia Press Is as follows:
"In laying plans for this year's cam
paign both congressional committees
nre giving unusual attention to Penn
sylvania. The strike of anthracite coal
miners has Inspired the Democratic
managers with the idea that they can
make gains In that region. For this
reason three districts are selected as
hopeful fields in which to get Demo
cratic congressmen.
"These thiee districts are In Lacka
wanna, Luzerne and Schuylkill coun
ties, and are now represented by
Messrs. Connell, Palmer and Patterson.
Two years ago these congressmen had
the following majorities: Connell,
1,988; Palmer, 5,233, and Patterson, 1,724.
The Democrats hope to Ube the present
coal strike as a lever to overturn these
majorities, on the theory that men out
of work will naturally be against the
political party in power.
"The Republican managers here are
not much alarmed over the strike as a
sinister factor in the campaign, but
they are anxious that the strongest
candidates be nominated. It Is not go
ing too fur to say that the renomina
tion of the three congressmen now rep
resenting those districts is earnestly
desired by Chairman Babcock and his
colleagues In the Republican campaign
committee. Their records aie all good
and the stiength they showed two
years ago Is regarded as evidence of
their ability again to carry the districts.
"There is particular interest now felt
In Mr, Connell's candidacy for renom
lnation. He is serving his third term
as representative of the Scranton dis
trict, and his standing in the house
gives him more than ordinary influence.
His selection by his Republican col
leagues In the Pennsylvania delegation
to represent that state on the congress
ional campaign committee Is proof of
his popularity among them and a tri
bute to his usefulness.
"There have been rumors that his
staunch support of Attorney General
Elkln for the gubernatorial nomination
had offended Senator Quay, ifhere is
the highest authority for the statement
that Mr. Quay respects Congressman
Connell for his loyalty to tho attorney
general and his attitude toward .Mr.
Connell's renomlnation is most friend
ly. Without expressing a preference,
for candidates the senator believes
that it would be -the part of wisdom
to icnomlnate the Scranton congress
man. " 'With Mr. Connell as the candidate
there would be no doubt of the district,'
Mr. Quay said In discussing the situa
tion a day or two ago.
"The old members of the Pennsyl
vania delegation are all in favor of Mr.
Connell's selection as the candidate in
that district. This is the sentiment
expressed by men like Dalzell, Achqson,
Bingham, Mahon and others who know
his lecord and his popularity among
his home people.
"I think It would be a grave mistake
not to renominate Mr. Connell,' said
Mr. Mahon today. 'Under present con
ditions he Is the one man who would
make that district certain for the Re
publicans. His ling experience as an
employer of labor and his harmonious
relations with the worklnginon would
insure him their support this year as In
the past. Republicans should be very
careful in selecting candidates this
your."
Don't forget that the primaries for
the nomination of a cougicbsman will
bo held tomorrow nfternoon, at tho reg
ular polling places, between tho hours
of 4 and 7 o'clock. Bo sure to vote.
NO CHANGE IN CONDITION.
Philadelphia Specialists Make Exam
ination of W. H. Pierce.
Tho condition of W. H. Pletco, who
wus Injured on July 4, has not mater
ially chunged. Drs. Cbolldge and Peck
who are in charge, summoned on Sat
urday Dr. William Vun Lonnep, the
well known Philadelphia brain special
ist, together with Dr. Hassler of Phil
adelphia. The doctors made an exploration In
cision of tho scalp which was turned
back and the cranium searched for evi
dence of fracture, but none were found.
The doctors, however, believe thnt a
fracture exists ut tho boso of tho brain
beyond surgical reach.
While tho condition of Mr, Pierce is
very berlous It is not altogether a hope
less one.

MAY MAKE A CHANGE.
Possibility That D., L. and W. Will
Locate Its Freight Station on
Mattes Street.
Arrangements have been perfected by
Director of Public Works John E.
Iloche with representatives of the
Rapid Transit company and the Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western Rail
road company for the grading and pav
ing of Mattes street, and there now
appears to be a strong possibility that
the latter company will move Its freight
station to that street, after the im
provements have been completed.
Tho Lackawanna's present quarters
are too limited, and It Is a known fact
that Intentions havo long been enter
tained of building a new station. Re
cently, a representative of the transit
company, which will have Its ,passen
ger station on Mattes street, called
upon Mr. Roche and In formed him that
his company was willing to assist in
having the street 'properly graded, and
added that they wished it paved with
something other than cobbles, and were
also willing to do their share In bear
ing the brunt of the expense Incurred
in this way.
He indicated that he understood the
Lackawanna was willing to pay half
the expense, and that this was particu
larly likely, as they Intended to build
a freight station there, to take the
place of their present freight house.
Chief Engineer W. K. McFarlin, of
Hie Lackawanna, later saw Mr. Roche
and stated the company's willingness
to pay one-half the total expense.
Superintendent T. "E. Clarke, of the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
Railroad company, was seen by a
Tribune man yesterday, and while he
did not directly affirm the report, ad
mitted that a change will be made In
the local freight handling facilities.
"Our present station," said he, "is far
too cramped for the business we are
handling, but It isn't likely that we
will make a change this year. I couldn't
say just where we will have ouV now
station. It depends largely, of course,
upon the location of the car shops."
Don't forget that the primaries for
the nomination of a congressman will
be held tomorrow afternoon, at the reg
ular polling places, between tho hours
of 4 and 7 o'clock. Be sure to vote.
SCRANTON BOYS ARE WINNERS.
Four Ex-Y. M. C. A. Players in One
Game at St. Louis.
This city is not only widely known as
an Industrial centre, but Its sons of the
diamond are being heard from wher
ever the national game of base ball Is
being played.
At St. Louis, on Saturday, four of the
boys, who at one time or another
played on the Y. M. C. A. team, were
In the game, two with the' New York
Giants and two with the St. Louis
Browns, of the National league.
John and Michael O'Neill were tho
battery oh one side, while Christy
Mathewson and "Jack" Dunn were In
tho box and on third base, respectively,
for the other side. The game was one
of the finest exhibitions of base ball
ever played on any diamond, the score
being 1-0 In favor of the St. Louis
team.
O'Neill outpointed Mathewson, al
though the "Plow Boy from Fac'ory
vllle" pitched a splendid game. In tho
nine Innings which New York had, but
thirty-two men faced O'Neill, while
twenty-six faced Mathewson in eight
Innings. The only run mado during the
game was on a wild pitch by Mathew
son, who had two such marks to his
credit, with three bases on balls, and
three strlke-outs to his credit, allow
ing but six hits In the game.
O'Neill gave but one pnss to first,
struck out four men, allowed but five
hits, and received pea-feet support.
Mathewson fielded his position perfect
ly, having flvo assists, while "Jack"
O'Neill had seven put-outs to his credit
during the game.
Both these pitchers played on tho Y.
M. C. A. team at Easton four years ago
July 4 and each won their game, Among
the other players In the game at St.
Louis on Saturday, who have appeared
in Scranton, were Smoot, Barclay and
Hnrtmnn, of the Browns, and Bodle,
Jones, Smith, O'Hagan and Wagner, of

EQUITY CASE POSTPONED.
Successful Attack Made on the Plain
tiff's BUI.
Tho equity case brought by Peter
Beers, of Jefferson township,, against
Clarence Woodruff and others, lo re
strain the defendants taking culm from
the plaintiff's lnnd, wns called for o
hearing before Judge Kelly, Saturday,
but a successful attack, on the regu
lavlty of the plaintiff's bill caused a
contlnuuncc until Monday, July It.
Tho defendants recently began to
drive across tho plaintiff's land nnd
take away the culm, to which they
claim ownership by purchase. The
plaintiff sought an Injunction to re
strain them from doing this, alleging
that they had norlght to cross his
land, and further, that the culm be
longed to him, it having been given him
by the Pennsylvania Coal company
years ago in payment of a claim.
Major Warren contended that as both
parties claim the property the matter
of title would have to be settled by a
jury. In this Judge Kelly agreed.
Tho matter of tho right of way to the
dump was left to bo brought up in an
amended bill, one week from today.
