SUMMER SESSION PUFILS,
Gave Their Closing Recital at St.
Luke's ParUh House.
The Conservatory gave Its closing re
cital of tho summer session last even
ing In St. Luke's Parish house ito ono
of the largest audiences of thri year.
Tho stage presented a pretty sight, with
Its scenery, colored lights, nnd several
pianos, to which there was nn added
charm In the light summer costumes of
the performers,
There was a decided variety In the
character of tho pieces played by the
solo performers. Beatrice Plater was,
heard In tho "Gavotte Facile," by
Meyer. An extremely pretty selection
was tho "Dancing Hives," by Dueclle,
played by Katharine Oraf. Maud
Morse gave an excellent rendition of a
Mazurka, by Webb. Another charming
selection was tho "Pastorelln," by
Oregh, which was played by Marguer
ite Horbe.
Master Kalph Goldsmith, son of
Aaron Goldsmith, was heard In "Su
lelka," by aaonschal. Anna Wahl was
beard In the "Camp of tho Gipsies," by
Hohr, nnd was warmly applauded,
Among the more advanced ones Miss
Flora Kaufhold Is deserving of special
mention. Her playing of the Valse In
E flat, by Duratul, was brilliant, yet
smooth, and was marked by careful at
tention to light and shade. Gussle
Urandt, of Green nidge, was greatly
enjoyed In the "Tnrnntclle" In A minor,
by Thome, Miss Clara Haas was an
nounced on the programme to play the
"Htlncolles," by Moskowskl, but re
peated, by request, the Concerto move
ment, which she played In tho Monday
evening recital.
Miss Clara Browning, one of the Con
servatory faculty, was the last of tho
soloists, playing the "Grand Vulse Brll
lante," by Chopin. Miss Browning
united the touch and tone of tho true
musician with a technique that never
faltered. Miss Browning has already
made a name for herself as one of the
most prominent teachers In tho city,
and her playing Is an Inspiration to her
pupils, and every way worthy of their
close Imitation.
Unison numbers were played by Isa
bella Carey and Hose Schlelder, nnd
Martha Richmond, Thurlow Brown,
Peter Naher and Freda Hanne. Several
selections were transposed into vari
ous keys by younger students. Two
ensemble pieces were played by the
Misses Bedford, Brandt, Doty, Hans,
Khrgood and Kaufhold. The advanced
ensemble class was heard In the diffi
cult and stirring "Rakoczy March,"
from "The Damnation of Faust," by
Berlioz.

DURYEA THE SCENE
OF WILD TUMULT
Deputies and Strikers Clash at the Warnke Wash
ery and Riot Reigns for (Four HoursHalf
a Dozen or More Are Injured.
Duryea was, yesterday, the.scone of a
conlllct between deputies and strikers
which resulted In a deputy having his
skull fractured, a striker being shot In
tho leg, nnd a relgn of terror ensuing
which moved the sheriff to dccl'do to
call for troops. Later he decided to
withdraw the call.
Harry Carrln, of Lackawanna ave
nue, this city, was the deputy Injured.
Ho Is at tho Lackawanna hospital,
hovering between life and death, The
wounded striker is Adam Juravitch, of
Babylon. A bullet entered his left leg
Just behind the knee. Ho was laken
to his home.
Another man who was mistaken for
u deputy had his head cut open with
a stone and nnrrowly escaped being
killed as he was being helped aboard
a car to be token to the Plttston hos
pital. This latter assault took place while
the police force and n, number of depu
ties were veritable onlookers. Chief
of Police Cosgrove and Deputy Sheriffs
Selple and Rodda realized thelr Inabil
ity to cope with the situation, and the
deputies telegraphed Sheriff Jncobs
that he should call for troops. After
a short talk over the wire the sheriff
said ho would make the call, but after
wards changed his mind.
The disorder was resultant of an at
tempt to operate the Warnke washery,
located In the very heart of Duryea,
the most lawless community, undoubt
edly. In the whole anthracite region.
An attack was made on the gunrds,
they fired on the mob, nnd when the
shooting ceased the Duryea police went
to the washery, seized the fifteen depu
ties and eight workmen who had not
escaped or been laid low, and locked
them up in the borough Jail.
The burgess, who is also the village
doctor, one Dr. Burlington, committed
them indiscriminately to Jail In default
of $3,000 ball, deputies, workmen nnd
wounded men alike. A force of twenty
deputies who were hastened from
Wllkes-Barre on a special train, suc
ceeded in getting the prisoners safely
from the Jail to a special Lackawanna
train consisting of a car and engine,
and they were hurried off. to Wllkes
Barre. The conductor of the train bad
his head injured by a stone thrown from
the crowd as the pilsoners were being
loaded on the car.
Was Expected.
The conlllct was only what every
ono expected and what Sheriff Jacobs
should have anticipated. Two pre
vious attempts were made to operate
the washery, but both were unsuccess
ful because of the onslaughts of the
lawless Hungarians, Poles nnd Italians
of the Duryea-Lackawanna-Oltl Forge
region.
After waiting a week or so the gen
eral manager of the washery, ex-Recorder
of Deeds Frederick Warnke, de
termined to make a final and desperate
attempt to get his plant under way.
Wednesday, a force of carpenters, en
gaged In erecting a barbed wire fence
about the washery, were driven to cov
er by a mob of strikers and the fence
was torn down. Later In the day
some of Sheriff Jacobs' men appeared
on the scene, In response to a sum
mons by telephone. The mob was dis
persed and work on the fence com
pleted. It was known throughout the entire
region of the washery that a deter
mined effort would be made, yesterday,
to start up, and It was freely declared
by the strikers of the community that
the washery would not be allowed to
work,
Geneinl Manager Warnke brought
seventeen deputies and about ten
workmen to the washery during the
night, ready to get under way with
the coming of day. The deputies were
armed with slxteen-shot 44. calibre Win
chester lilies nnd the workmen with
38-callbre revolvers. A line of two nnd
one-half Inch hose was laid from the
engine house pump to the roadway
skirting the washery. as an additional
mentis of repressing an attack. Sheriff
Jacobs sent half-a-dozen of his olllco
deputies to help preserve the peace.
At daylight, a eiowd began to gather
outside the washery. By 0 o'clock It
numbered 500 persons, many of them
women. The sheriff's olllce deputies
went among them and succeeded in
inducing them to leave. They were
comparatively quiet and did nothing
more than jeer and throw a few stones,
The deputies inside the barbed wire
fence kept in the background.
Sheriff's Men Left.
The .sheriff's deputies left for Wllkes
Barre about 11 o'clock, believing, pos
sibly, that all danger of an outbreak
had passed,
Soon after noontime the crowd again
began to assemble In the vicinity of
the washery. Every minute it grew
bigger and bolder, A crowd of boys
playing bnso ball In an adjacent Held
gave up their sport to mingle with tho
throng, and emboldened nnd encour
aged by their elders began to Jeer and
then hurl missiles at the washery
hands,
At 2,110 o'clock, when the crowd was
about ut a point where it could no
longer contain Itself, a young man
named Cosgrove, reputed to be a mem
ber of the notorious "Willy (Jang" and
a brother of the chief of police, boldly
approached tho stockade and entered
the wire onclosuie. Tho guards say he
had a stone In eacli hand and advanced
towards them, uttering threats. Chief
of Police Cosgrove denies that his
brother did anything more than stand
nbout the outside of the fence, apd that
he only went Inside when summoned
by the chief to assist the police force,
after tho shooting was over with.
General Manuger Fred Warlike was
111 Scranton. His young brother, a
mere hoy, was In charge of the depu
ties. Each deputy had one blank and
fifteen ball cartridges in his rifle.
According to the deputies, the mob
began throwing stones as Cosgrove up
proached the washery, According to
the strikers and their sympathizers, the
deputes fired and then tho crowd be
gun Its attack.
At all events, the crowd hurled btones
at the washery, tho deputies fired und
blood wus shed. The shots brought the
whole town to the scene. Chief Cos
grove declares that ho was near at
hand when the trouble broke out and
hastened Inside tho fence to stop the
shooting, and that the deputies Hied at
hlni, not recognizing hm.
When ho gathered his score of spe
cial officers about him, tho deputies
apparently realized who ho was and
made no offer to resist his authority.
,Tho lhob, which had scattered at tho
commencement of tho -shooting, re
turned when tho borough police de
scended on the washery, and once more
began to grow turbulent. Some of tho
deputies sought shelter in the washery
building, Sixteen deputies and work
men hid In tho tower. A colored man,
who was cook, on nged workman, nnd
Carrln, who was a deputy, broke and
ran up the railroad, pursued by the
crowd.
Assault On Carrln.
Carrln was overtaken pear tho Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western sta
tion by some of the strikers and laid
low with a blow from a stone. He got
up again, but had hardly regained his
feet when an Italian felled him with a
base ball bat and then beat him over
the head as he lay bleeding nnd un
conscious on the railroad. I'he bat with
which the deed was done was snatched
from the hands of a boy named I.eo
Gllboy, one of the crowd of urchins
who hnd come from tho ball field to
Join tho mob. The boy, It Is said, knows
the name of the man who wielded the
bat.
The old man who took leg bail out
distanced his pursuers and sought ref
uge in the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western station at Lackawanna. He
was seen to enter the station and a
crowd of strikers soon surrounded the
place. The old man crawled under a
seat In the waiting room, and the sta
tion agent locked him In.
When the train leaving Scranton at
3.40 p. m. reached Lackawanna, Chief
Detective J. E. Adamson and five of
his men, who were bound for Duryea to
protect the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western company's Hallstead colliery,
which adjoins the Warnke washery,
rescued the trembling old man and put
him aboard the train. He was so terri
fied he could scarcely speak. As the
train approached Duryea, he went into
the toilet room of the car, locked him
self In and remained there till the train
stopped at Plttston.
An Onlooker Mobbed.
The colored man ran around the
crowd that was assaulting Carrln, and
made for the upper end of the town to
get a Scranton trolley car. A man, who
said he was an agent and who refused
to give his name, let the colored man
have ten cents to help him get away,
and then hurried down to the center of
the town to see the excitement. Nearly
an hour later, some one who saw him
give the colored man money, pointed
him out In the crowd. A move was
made towards him, nnd he ran down
the street, alongside the Pullman house.
A hundred men followed hlni, calling
out In half a dozen languages that he
was a "scab" and "deputy." A hun
dred yards down the street he came to
the river, and had to halt. While he
was expostulating that he was simply
a disinterested onlooker, some brute of
a foreigner struck him on the forehead
with a jagged rock. A few white men,
who became compassionate at the sight
of the stranger lying half-conscious on
the ground, with blood fairly pouring
from an ugly hole In his forehead,
picked him up nnd helped him back to
Main street.
A Wllkes-Barre trolley car was halted
and the English-speaking men who had
the wounded stranger in tow proceeded
to help .him aboard. The mob Insisted
that he was a deputy and wanted to
renew the assault on him. Some argued
one way and some nnother. Several
times the wounded and half-dazed man
was partly aboard the car, only to be
dragged back by the crowd and Jostled
nbout. Some were for letting him go,
and others wanted that he should be
locked up. Finally, he was forced
nboard the car and the motorman
started up.
The mob cheered as the wounded man
sank exhausted Into the car seat. He
was helped off at Plttston and taken
care of at a doctor's oftice. He refused
to disclose his Identity.
Attempt at Lynching.
The colored man, whom the stranger
had befriended, got safely aboard a
Scranton car, but word of his coming
preceded hlni to Old Forge and when
tho car arrived a crowd was awaiting
him. He was dragged from the car,
buffetted and pummeled, nnd finally
thrown down and tied, A roue was
placed around his neck and he was
being dragged towards a tree at the
roadside when Donntv Rliovirr .Tnim i
Gaffney, who Is stationed at the Wlll-N
lam A, colliery, happened along and
persuaded the crowd to let him go.
All this time Carrln was lying on tho
railroad track, bleeding from half a
dozen wounds. Some one, It Is not
known whom, carried him to the rail
road station and summoned Dr, Bur
lington. Tho battered head was dressed
as best it could be, under the circum
stances, and tho doctor, who Is also the
burgess, left to take a hand In restor
ing what Is the equivalent of order In
Duryea. As ho was coming from tho
station, to use his own words, "Those
fellows wanted to kill me because I
treated the man who was hurt."
Carrln was laid out on the hard floor
of the waiting room with his coat for
a pillow and n newspaper covering his
face. Hungarians, Poles and Italians
lingered nbout tho station and uttered
Imprecations against the dying man In
side. So threatening did they become
that tho station agent locked the door.
The up-traln at 4.35 took Carrln to
Scranton. The crowd again cheered when
tho limp and blood-covered form was
brought to their view as Chief Adam
son and his men lifted him Into the
baggage ear, The cheering continued
until the train was out of sight,
Carrln was taken to the Lackawau
nu hospital, At midnight he was re
ported to be In a critical condition.
Wavnke's Men Arrested.
Tho mob had been somewhat scat
tered by the chase after tio two who
fled from the washery, and this made
It less dlfllcult than it might have been
for Chief of Police Cosgrove nnd his
men to handle the washery hands. Tho
borough Jail, a llttlo wooden structure,
Is about one hundred and fifty yards
from the wushery. The twenty-four
deputies und workmen were marched
over this distance hurriedly, and hus
tled Into the two Iron cases with which
Iho Jail Is provided. The scattered
crowd quickly re-unltcd nnd was soon
assembled about tho Jail, Gcorga
Warlike had three cuts on his head and
several others of the deputies had
slight wounds. Dr. Burlington attend
ed them and then resolving himself
Into burgess proceeded to give them A
hearing.
Attorney W. II. Gillespie, of Plttston,
representing tho United Mine Workers
nnd the borough officials, conducted the
examination for the prosecution.
The stories of four Duryea men wcio
heard, and all told that the only provo
cation the deputies had for firing was
the Jeering of a few boys. Tho wounds
which tho deputies nnd workmen re
ceived were unaccountable. None of
tho witnesses saw any stones thrown.
George Warnke was called to testify
and told that young Cosgrove came
Inside the fence with stones In his
hand, and that when he would not halt
the guards levelled their guns nt hlni.
At this the crowd mndo a rush on tho
washery, and tho deputies ilred a round
of blank cartridges. This did not stop
tho rush nnd more shots were fired.
Juravitch fell and the crowd began to
retreat. The deputies continued to flro
until tho witness told them they had
shot enough.
John Coolbaugh, ono of the Duryea
men, told tho story thus: "There was
a couple of thousand people around
the washery. Some fellows began to
holler and tho deputies got on their car
about It and began to fire. They shot
nbout twelve shots. They used rifles.
When they shot the crowd was only
about twenty feet away. Tho crowd
began to scatter when they saw the
fellow shot In the leg. I didn't see any
stones thrown."
All the witnesses agree that Juravitch
was on the public road, a good distance
from tho washery and apart from the
crowd when he was struck.
James Huddleson nnd President
Thomas Joyce, of the borough council,
gave somewhat similar testimony as
that of Coolbaugh.
Washery Hands, Too.
President Joyce, at the conclusion of
the hearing, insisted that heavy ball
be exacted and Burgess Burlington
compliantly made it $3,000 apiece, or
$72,000 in all.
A committment was made out and
at 6 o'clock the twenty-four prisoners
were released from the two sultry cells
and formed in twos to be marched from
the jail to the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western station, where a car and
engine were in waiting to take them
to Wllkes-Barre. They were all glad
to go anywhere In preference to being
in the little frame Jail, with a mob
outside that the authorities had con
fesed, in a telegram to the sheriff,
they were unable to cope with.
Twenty deputies from Sherlfe
Jacobs' office, who had arrived In a
special train at 5 o'clock, formed two
lines from the jail to the passenger
car, a distance of two hundred feet.
Chief Cosgrove and a few of his Duryea
officers mnrched In front or behind the
line of prisoners.
Young Warlike with his head In
bandages and another lad of about his
own age, walked at the head of the
line. An old man trembling In every
limb, clung to another boy's arm as
he went through the crowd. uThe others
followed as rapidly as the stride of
the police in front would let them.
They were a badly scared lot, even with
their passage way fairly lined with
officers of the commonwealth, the whole
police force of Duryea escorting them,
the burgess standing on the jail steps
and Vice President Adam Ryscavage
and Organizer Anthony Schlosser, of
the United Mine Workers, conspicuous
in the throng.
Several times during the short march
men from the crowd tried to get at tho
prisoners, but the Ueputles smilingly
restrained them and, giving them n
friendly slap on the back, hustled them
backward Into the crowd.
Hurled a Stone.
Jeering began as soon as the prison
ers appeared, but despite the occasion
al rush of one of the mob to get
through the deputies' line everything
went smoothly, until the last of the
prisoners was climbing aboard the car,
when some one In the crowd hurled a
big stone at those on the platform. It
struck the conductor on the head, but
his derby hat saved him from sustain
ing any worse Injury than a sore
swelling. The car was run down the
track some distance and into a switch
to let the regular by, after which It
was hustled to Kingston, where the
prisoners were transferred on trolley
cars to the county prison.
With this the excitement subsided.
Deputy Sheriff Selple nnd eight men
were left behind to protect the wash
ery. The crowd was coaxed by "jolly
ing" to go home to supper, and nt 7
o'clock everything was quiet.
The call for tho troops was decided
upon at 4.30 o'clock. Deputy Sheriff
Rodda and Chief Cosgrove admitted,
when asked by Chief Detective Adam
son, of the Delnware, Lackawanna and
Western, that they feared they could
not handle the crowd, since blood had
been shed, and Deputy Rodda so In
formed Sheriff Jncobs bv wire. After
making minute Inquiries as to the ex
isting and threatened conditions, Sheriff
Jncobs replied that ho would call on
the governor for aid.
Dr, Burlington, tho burgees, on hear
ing that troops hnd been called for,
said he thought such action unneces
sary. "If the sheriff's men hadn't gone
away this morning," said ho, "this
trouble would have been averted."
In an TXgly Mood.
The ugly mood of the crowd was evi
denced by the experience of some of
the newspaper men. Every time one of
them went to a 'phone, n half-dozen or
more would follow him and threaten
him with vlolenco If he sent out any
thing that wasn't light. A photog
rapher had to get out of tho town, A
locul newspaper man was asking ques
