BUT HE MADE A DASH FOR LIB

Hungarian Striker with a Shotgun
Captured by Sheriff Schadt When
the Smoke of tho Throop Battle
Cleared Away Succeeds in Escap-
' ing Women nnd Children Make a
Demonstration at the Dickson Col
liery Interview with Vice Presi
dent Loomls, of the Lackawanna.
After the smoke of Monday night's
battle at Throop hud cleared away,
Sheriff Schadt and a few of his deputies
made a search of the wood., where the
strikers had taken their position, nnd
while beating the brush ennio across
it Hungarian walking with a cane.
The sheriff took him In tow, nnd dis
covered that the cane was in reality
the barrel of a single-barreled, jointed
shotgun, and Hint the Hungarian had
tho stock concealed under his coat.
Warden Simpson, of the county Jail;
was given charge ot the fellow nnd
dliccted to take him to Joo Laliotskyo
saloon, near the boulevard, and wait
with him there until the party was
ready to return to Scrnnton. After
scouring tho woods further, the sheriff
repaired to the saloon, only to And that
the prisoner had gotten away. Ho had
made .nil excuse to go to tho bar to get
a cigar and on reaching the barroom
made a succssful bolt for liberty.
Sheriff Schadt suspended the warden
pending an Investigation.
Throop was quiet yesterday and laBt
night. Sheriff Schadt, with Deputies
Ferber and Weinman, went there early
In the evening and remained until after
9 o'clock. No disturbance took place,
THE WOMEN MARCHED.
The membeis or tho Dickson local of
the United Mine Workers had a picnic
yesterday in a grove a few hundred
yards north of the colliery. They
wanted to show, they said, that despite
the fact that the colliery Is In oper
ation nnd that their treasurer defaulted
with the $475 remaining in tho treas
ury, they are still happy and united.
About fifty women nnd children,
headed by John Crnbb, a member of
the local, formed a procession at the
picnic grounds at 3 o'clock In the after
noon and marched around the breaker.
Police Lieutenant Palmer and Patrol
man Watklns sought to have them give
over the demonstration, but they re
fused, and as they had a permit from
the city to conduct a parade, the offi
cers were powerless to interfere.
Attorney Joseph O'Brien, represent
ing the Delaware and Hudson com
pany, wnlted on Sheriff Schadt with n
complaint to the effect that the proces
sion was bent on intimidating the
workmen at the Dickson and should be
prevented. The parade was over be
fore the sheriff could make any move
In the matter.
No attempt was made to molest the
workmen. The paraders simply marched
along the streets adjacent to the col
liery and returned to the picnic. No
disturbance of any kind occurred.
The expected trouble at Duryea did
not occur yesterday. The starting up
of the Warlike washery was postponed
until today. Fully 1,500 strikers and
their sympathizers gathered around the
wasliery, yesterday morning, bent on
preventing any workmen from reach
ing the place. Sheriff Jacobs, it Is said,
will have fifty deputies on hand this
morning to prevent disorder.
MR. LOOMIS IN CITY.
Vice-President 13. VS. Loomls, of the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
company, was here yesterday on one of
his periodical trips. To a Tribune re
porter he said that all talk ot the oper
ators making concessions is the purest
nonsense and that tho strike will only
end by the miners returning to work
as they came' out.
Regarding the statement of Presi
dent Mitchell that the operators, If vic
torious, will recoup their strike losses
by reducing the wages of the men, Mr.
Loomls said:
"The Delaware, Lackawanna and
AVestern, miners will be allowed to re
turn to wo'rk on the same terms and
under the same conditions that ob
tained when they were taken from
their employment by the strike lead
ers. If there are any grievances to bo
adjusted tbey will be adjusted as here
tofore. Tt is up to the miners to say
how much more of a sacrifice they are
willing to make for the agitators who
led them Into this trouble."
The Delaware and Hudson company's
force at the .Marvlne Is Increasing daily
and the company expects to be able to
start operations In a short time.
A mass meeting of the strikers of
Prlceburg and vicinity will be held at
the Dickson City ride range this after
noon. President Mitchell Is expected to
be ono of the speakers.
Bieweiy Workers' local, No. (i.", last
night voted to donate $100 to the
miners.

HELD UP BY ROBBERS.
Masked Men Waylay and Abuse Two
Men Who Are Employed in the
Brisbin Mine.
Evan Thomas, a well-known young
man living on Putnam street, was held
up by robbers, Sunday night, near the
Brisbin patch. In North Scranton. He
was walking: towards his homo, when
two masked men suddenly sprang upon
him, and ordered blin ,to hold up his
hands.
They then searched him and secured
several small articles, but no money,
ns an amount of small change he had
In an Inside pocket escaped their notice.
The masked robbers are believed by the
police to belong to a gang, of which
considerable complaint has been made,
and are thought to have been Impli
cated in the robbery and assault of an
other young North Scranton man,
Louis Heller, a short while ago. Tho
latter is still confined to his bed as a
result of the boating lie received.
Before releasing tho young man,
Sunday night, ills captors made vnilous
dire threats as to What they would do
If he resumed work. He Is employed
as a clerk at tho olltcc of the Brisbin
colliery, and Heller Is employed ut the
same colliery as a fireman.
MATTER OF CONTRACTS.
Will Be Considered by Recorder nnd
His Cabinet.
It is expected that at the next meet
ing of Recorder W. L. Connell and his
cabinet. City Solicitor George M. Wat
hon will submit a brief, which will ex
haustively treat of the matter of city
contracts. At tho last meeting of tho
cabinet this matter was discussed, and
there was considerable debate us to the
advisability of using formal contracts
In providing for nil city work, regard
less of the amount of money or labor
Involved.
If Mich nctlon were to be taken nnd
nil work done strictly by contract, It
would obviate the possibility of uny
trouble similar to that caused by the
hold-up of W. II. Wlckizer's bill for
West Scranton street repairs, which
was refused payment by the city con
troller, until Solicitor Watson's opinion
sustained the legality of the claim.

There were not quite as many points
as usual turned In In The Tribune's
Educational Contest yesterduy, al
though what few there were caused
considerable changing. Those who
scored were: Charles Burns, 6; Mnx
well Shepherd, 4; William T. S. Rodri
guez, 3; William Cooper, 2; Charles AV.
Dorsey, 1; Miss Edna Coleman, 1.
The three points scored by Mr. Rodri
guez places him just beyond the 300
mark and creates a tie between he and
Fred K. Gunster for fifth place. It will
be noticed that tho" leaders between
third and eighth positions are very
closely bunched nnd it will take but
few points to make some important
changes. Recently they have scored
pretty evenly, but If any one should
stop work for a day or two he would
be pretty sure to lose his position.
The only change In the main table
was made by Miss Edna Coleman, who,
although she brought In but one point,
succeeded In advancing two places, as
yesterday morning she was tied with
three other contestants for twenty-fifth
place. Miss Coleman was among the
first to start In the contest, tnklng
thirteenth place on May 9, but she was
unable to keep this position, although
she scored from time to time, and
gradually dropped back until she was
close to tho danger line. Only Inst
Thursday she was in thirty-first place,
but she has passed steadily upward,
being In twenty-ninth on August 8,
twenty-seventh on August 9, and Is
now In twenty-fifth.
The first six among the leaders for
tho special August prizes remain un
changed, but seventh place Is occupied
this morning by Charles Burns, who
was not In the table yesterday as he
did not have sufficient points to get
above the line. Maxwell Shepherd was
the only other contestant to "advance.
