THE PEOPLE'S BUNK. I
WASHERY WILL
BE RESTARTED
MACHINERY MUST BE RE
PAIRED, SAYS MR. WARNKE.
A Teat Will Be Given tho Crippled
Machinery at the Warnke Washery,
After Which It Will Be Repaired
and Work Resumed Arrests Ex
pected Today nt Duryea Major W.
W. Inglls, Who Is Back from
Shenandoah, Says Erie Will Not
Start Any Collieries.
Reports which were yesterday cur
rent to the effect that efforts would
bo made tomorrow to ngalu start the
Warlike washcry at Duryea, were yes
terday denied by General Manager
Frederick Warnke, who said to a
Tribune man:
"It will be Impossible for us to start
work Immediately, on account of the
condition of our machinery, nnd, In
fact, I doubt whether wo will bo able
to do anything this week. Wq will
give the machinery a thorough test, as
soon aw possible, In order to ascertain
just what repairs are necessary, and
then, after these are made, work will
be resumed. Wo aren't afraid of the
Duryea mob, and the washcry Is going
to run, just as soon na It Is In proper
condition to bo operated."
Mr. Warlike also denied tho florid re
ports sent out from Wllkes-Barre that
one hundred warrants had been sworn
out In that city and were to be served
on residents of Dureya for complicity
In Thursday's riots.
"That article was totally incorrect,"
snld he. "No warrants have yet been
sworn out, but I will not say how muny
are going to bo sworn out tomorrow.
There will bo plenty of developments
In the matter then,"
There will be t hearing before Judge
Halsey, In AVilkes-Barre, this morning
on, the application to release the de
puties arrested Thursday by the police
of Duryea. They were held In heavy
ball by the burgess of Duryea that
day.
CARUIN LEFT HOSPITAL.
Henry Carrln, the deputy who was
so brutally assaulted Thursday that
his Injuries necessitated his being
taken to the Lackawanna hospital,
was Saturday allowed to leave that In
stitution for his homo on Lackawanna
avenue. He will remain under a. phy
sician's care and continue to receive
treatment for the Injury to his scalp.
A fact which has been revealed
since Thursday's trouble, In connec
tion with this same man Carrln, shows
that Duryea came near losing Chief of
Police Cosgrove during the attack on
the washcry. When the mob was ad
vancing against the washcry guards,
Carrln raised his ride, took aim at one
of the men in the crowd, and was just
about to Are, when the head deputy
struck up his rifle, hurriedly exclaim
ing, "Don't shoot, Carrln, that's Chief
Cosgrove." The weapon was dis
charged harmlessly In the air.
The strike is now In Its fourteenth
week, and with the exception of the
riots at Throop nnd Duryea, the local
situation has not changed to any ex
tent in the last several weeks. The
Oxford, Dickson, Dodge and Cayuga
collieries aro being operated, as well as
several washeries, but with the excep
tion of these no aggressive measures
have yet been taken by the local opera
tors. The Erie company continues to main
tain the passive attitude which has
characterized its movements since the
beginning of the strike. Major AV. A
Inglls, who is superintendent of the
Hillside department of the Erie's coal
Interests, has returned from Shenan
doah, where lie was called by his duties
as ordnance officer of the Third bri
gade, where the Eighth and Twelfth
regiments were called out, and reports
all quiet among the strikers in that
region.
NOT TO RESUME.
In a conversation with a Tribune
man he stated that the Erie Is not at
present entertaining the Intentions of
resuming work at any of its collieries.
President John Mitchell,' of the mine
workers, left Saturday for his home In
Indianapolis. He had a. brief Interview
with President T. D. Nlcholls, of Dis
trict No. 1, before his departure. He
will visit his family, and at the same
time transact some business at nation
al headquarters before his return.whlch
will occur In about two weeks.
A meeting of Spencer's local will be
held In Mauley's hall, Dunmore, at 2
o'clock this afternoon. A mass meet
ing of tho mine workers will shortly
be held In Throop. It will be addressed
by President Nlcholls, Secretary Demp
sey, "Mother" Mary Jones, and others.
Charles Boltum, the colored man, who
was nearly lynched by the Duryea mob
last Thursday was released on $300 ball
on Saturday by Judge Edwards. Bol
turn was one of tho men employed at
the Warnke washery and w.is rescued
from the mob by Deputy Sheriff John
Gaffney, who placed him under arrest
on the charge of discharging firearms.
FROM THE MINING JOURNAL.
Says Saturday's Engineering and
Mining Journal:
A few more mines nnd washoiies are
working, but tho total production of an
thraclto Is but a very small fraction of
normal figures. The, strlko leaders aro
concentrating their effoits on those dis
tricts whero tho men have shown most
dissatisfaction at the prolonged Idleness
nnd aio using their most etfectlvo speak
em to hold tho men in line. These efforts
have not booi without result, and tho
strike may last longer than seemed likely
a few weeks ago. The operators main
tain tho position they took at the begin
ning of tho stiike, and newspaper clamor
Is not likely to move them. As they have
frequently pointed out, they stand for
cffectlvo discipline nt tho mines some
thing that tho expel leiico of tho past
two years lias shown cannot be had so
long as the men feel that tho union and
not the operators should control all ques
tions of employment,
Trade all over tho country Is very light,
nnd supplies at somo points aro getting
down to tho vanishing point, Consump
tion Is always small during tho Hummer,
nnd nlong tho Atlantic ben board buying
for winter inroly starts beforu October,
bo that the situation la not likely to ho
come acute unlets the mines aro still Idlo
late In September, Even ut Now York
city, where tho newspapers are now talk
ing of a coal famine, matters are not as
bud as icpoited. Large hotels and res
taurants are using screenings and soft
coal mixed. Borne aro burning soft coal
altogether, while oil and gas stoves are
used by families. When tho mines start
with full forces, work will go with it rush,
and the production will bo the heaviest
lecoided. Should the strlkq last till Oe
tobor, It Is quite possible that by Jiuipnry
tho output, with sufilclent cur supply, will
bo more than adequate for all needs.
At tho head of the Jakes very little coal
Is changing bunds, as supplies on tho

ALLEGED MURDERER
ARRESTED IN DETROIT
Police Have Beenf Looking for the
Man for More Than a Year.
History of the Crime.
Superintendent of Police Day re
ceived a telegram yesterday afternoon
from the police authorities at Detroit
announcing the arrest there ot AVladls
law Konstantynowz, who Is wanted
here for ttho murder of "Joe" Benna
vlech on the night of July 27, 1301. This
ends a long and trying search for the
prisoner.
The discovery of the whereabouts of
Konstantynowz was brought about In
a rather peculiar maimer. After the
murder he left the city and was traced
up the valley, but the police failed to
locate him. Friends of the murdered
man wrote to friends In Austria who
live In the same town as Konstanty
nowss's wife, asking them to try and
get possession of any letters which he
might send home, and ascertain where
they were sent from.
In the course of several months word
came from these people in Austria that
Konstantynowz was sending letters
from Detroit and the police of the lat
ter city were put on his trail. Several
months ago the latter sent word on
hero that they had arrested their man.
The local police were inclined to be
a little bit skeptical and sent a. man
on from North Scranton to Identify
the prisoner. It turned out that the
man under arrest was not tho right
one, though he lived In tho same house
with Konstantynowz and had letters
addressed to the latter In his posses
sion. The telegrams received yester
day by Superintendent Day announces
that there is no mistake this time and
that the right man is in custody.
He admits tho killing, but says it
was done In self-defense during a fight.
He has waived extradition and will be
brought here as soon as an officer can
go after him.
On the night of July 21, 1001, Benno
vlech paid a visit to Konstantynowz at
the latter's boarding house, on AVelles
street, and the two drank together for
some time, Bennovelch finally accused
Konstantynowz ot Bteallng a horse be
longing to him In the old country and
a violent qunrrel ensued.
Konstantynowz beat Bennovleeh un
mercifully and finally picked him up
and threw him over the front porch
railing, a distance of several feet, to
the ground. The fall broke Benno
vlech's neck, killing him instantly.
Konstnntynowz pulled the body of the
dead man from the front yard into the
etreet, and, after kicking It several
times, ran up the street and has not
been seen here since.
ONE MEMBER FOR SIXTH.
Committee Decides to Accept Asses
sor's List of Tnxables.
The members ot the joint apportion
ment committee of councils, appointed
to apportion the number of common
councllmen for the next four years in
accordance with the provisions of the
act ot 1S01, met on Saturday morning
nnd compiled their report, based on the
return made by the absessoijs some
weeks ago of the number of tuxubles
in each ward.
The report prepared by the commit
tee provides for a reduction of' the
number of councllmen from the Sixth
ward from two to one, and an Increase
from one to two In the number from
the Fifteenth ward, It will be remem
bered that Messrs McGrcevy nnd Gil
pin, the two councllmen from the Sixth
ward, objected to the return made by
the assessors, alleging that It was in
correct, and that the real number of
taxables In their ward was sufilclent to
entitle It to a representation of two
members.
Chairman II, E. Palno said yesterday
to a Tribune man that the members of
tho committee felt themselves bound to
accept the sworn report of the asses
sors and that It was not within their
province to go over the assessment
books for any particular ward.

WAS ATTACKED BY
HEART DISEASE
William Harris, of 371 Evans Court,
Stricken While Bathing in
Lake Ariel.
While swimming at Lake Ariel yes
terday afternoon, William Harris, ot
371 Evans court, had an attack of heart
disease, and when removed from the
water by friends was found to be dead.
Dr. A. J. Council, who examined the
remains is authority for the statement
that there were no signs of the results
ot drowning apparent in tho condition
of the body, and that It was very evi
dently u case of heart failure.
Mr. Hurrls left this city yesterday
morning for Lako Ariel, accompanied
by Miss Kearney. They ate dinner as
the guests of Isaac and T. R. Owens,
who with their families occupy n cot
tage near the outlet. After dinner the
two Owens' and their wives, Harris,
Miss Kearney nnd John F. Hayes, of
the firm of Hayes & Ararlcy, of this
city, went in Hwliiiming. The other
three men are all good swimmers, but
Harris, who was barely able to swim,
remained near the shore with tho
ladles, never being In water over his
chin.
He was suddenly seen to lurch for
ward and fall prostrate in tho water.
His three comrades swain swiftly in,
to his assistance, and In Harris' strug
gles, his three friends narrowly es
caped drowning themselves. Tho re
mains were brought to this city on tho
S.15 train, and taken to D. D. Jones
undertaking parlors on AVasliington
avenue.
Mr. Harris was the son of James M.
Harris, and was employed as a book
keeper by Jonas Long's Sons. Several
years ago his family suffered a sim
ilar misfortune, when his uncle was
drowned at Lily lake.
