Sudden Climax to His Quarrel with
Hose Qumond in the Famed
Bed Barn,
Peter Pryc was arrested lust night by
the North Scrunton police, on the
charge of shooting Hose Gumond, a
woman with whom he lived In fhe "lied
Barn" on North Main avenue. Tho
shooting occurred about 10 o'clock, and
was the result ot a tiuurrel between the
two.
Pryo brought the dispute to a sudden
close by drawing a revolver and firing
five shots at the woman. Only one of
them took effect, the bullet pene
trating her right ankle and drilling a
hole clcun through the bone. A patrol
man standing near Cerlne's hotel heard
the shots, and hastening to the barn
found the woman lying on the floor.
Prye was found hiding behind the door.
He was taken to the North Scranton

LAVELLE HAS
BROUGHT SUIT
WANTS TO COLLECT FROM ES
TATE OF PRIEST.
Rev. E. J. Mellcy, Executor of Es
tate of Rev. John Loughrau, Re
fuses to Recognize Claim of Fat
rick Lavelle, Who Says Priest on
His Death Bed Made Him Certain
Donations Mrs. Catherine R.
Thomas nnd Son Have Begun a.
Suit for Damages,
When Rev. John Loughrnn, pastor of
St. Joseph's Catholic church, Atlnooka,
was on his death bed, Sept. 24, 1S!9,
his body servant, Patrick Lavelle, who
hud been In his employ for years, says
that Father Loughran told him (Lu
vclle) to take his (the priest's) gold
watch and chain from his vest, and
$1,100 which he would nnd In a trunk,
the priest giving him the keys ot the
trunk. These girts were a token of
Father Loughrun's appreciation of La
valle's years of faithful service.
Lavelle did not take possession of
the property at once, and after con
sulting with Rev. Walter Gorman, who
was Father Loughrun's assistant, left
the keys on the body of Fnther Lough
ran. and they were taken possession ot
by .Father Gorman In tho presence ot
witnesses, and with the other property
of the deceased priest turned over to
Rev. E. J. Melley, pastor of St, John's
church, South Scranton, the executor
of Fnther Loughrun's will.
Father Melley has refused to recog
nize the claim of Lavelle which In law
Is known us a "donation in anticipation
of death," and yesterduy, through At
torney M, J. Donahoe, Lavelle began
nn action in assumpsit against Father
Melley to recover what he alleges Is
due him by the estate.
Argument on Exceptions.
Arguments on the exceptions to
Judge Edwards' opinion In the case of
Ambiose L, Spencer against Emeiy
and Hughes, In the suit against the
Emery Slate Picker Manufacturing
company were heard by him In cham
bers yesterday.
Attorneys Hawley, Burns and Don
nelly argued for the exceptants and M.
J. Martin appeared for Mr. Spencer.
The men engaged in the suit were tho
Incorporators of a company organized
to manufacture the Emery slate
picker.
Emery was president and Hughes
was secretary-treasurer of the com
pany. Spencer says the others squeezed
him out. Owing to this, he went Into
court and nsked to have the partner
ship dissolved.
A receiver was appointed and n dis
tribution of the funds was made. After
the case was heard. Judge Edwards
granted the prayer and appointed C.
Reynolds Bedford receiver. Emery
and Hughes afterwards formed what
was known as the Duplex Slate Picker
company and continued business.
Spencer alleged that the new com
pany was designed to freeze him out
of his profits and declared that the
Duplex picker was the same as the
Emery picker. Judge Edwards includ
ed the Duplex picker In making a di
vision of the assets.
Emery and Hughes contend that the
court erred In appointing a receiver
after dissolving the partnership, and
that the Duplex was separate from
the Emery picker.

SAYS THE STORIES
ARE GROUNDLESS
President NlchollB Makes Denial of
the Reports Sent Out of Confer
ences Warnke to Resume.
District President T. D. Nlcholls
stated yesterday to a Tribune man,
that the reports sent out from Wllkes
Barre regnrdlng an unexpected con
ference this week between J. Plerpont
Morgan and President John Mitchell,
were utterly groundless. Said he: "I
take absolutely no stock In those re
ports. Mr. Mitchell Is at present In
Indianapolis, and whether or "not he
will be back here Thursday, I cannot
say. However, I was In conference
with hint Friday night, nnd It Is reason
able to suppose that If there wus any
truth In these rumors, Mr. Mitchell
would have given me some Information
on the matter then. There was not,
however, the least s'uggestton' of any
such action to be taken.
"There Is also no truth In the state
ments which have been printed in
some of the New York and Philadelphia
papers of a conference between the
operators and offlcluls of the mine
workers. Reports at present from all
over the district Indicate an encourag
ing condition of affairs. Men are quit
ting work eveiy day at the few col
lieries in operatioo. Several have left
the Oxford colliery in West Scranton,
during the last few days,"
Executive Board Members Stephen
Reap, of Olyphant, and Henry Collins,
of Carbondale, were closeted with Presi
dent Nlcholls yesterday afternoon. Col
lins reported that a number of men,
who had been engaged nt the Coal
brook colliery und Carbondale washery
of the Delaware & Hudson company
hud ceased work. Two more meetings
will be held today, one at Mooslc and
one at Miner's Mills. A speciul meet
ing of the Ave Olyphant locals will be
held at 2.30 o'clock this afternoon at
Father Matthew hall, Olyphant.
Superintedent John R. Bryden of the
New Yoik, Ontario & Western Railroad
company's coal department yesterday
Informed a Tribune man that expecta
tions are entertained of having the new
Capouse washery built and In operation
within sixty days. All the lumber, need
ed in its construction will be here withiu
two weeks, and the necessary machinery
is expected inside of a month. Kings
ley and Westeott, who have built the
greater number of local washerles,
have been awarded the contract by
Superintedent Bryden.
Frederick Warnke last night stated
to a Tribune man that Investigation
had shown that the machinery at his
Duryea washery was not as much in
need of repairs, as at first believed,
and efforts would be made to resume
work Wednesday or Thursday.
The Black Diamond says: "Nine
collieries are now reported preparing
coal for market, while some twenty-two
washerles are turning out considerable
product of the small sizes. Of course,
only a small percentage of the product
of the mines and washerles have as
yet been available for the trade, as the
requirement of the mining plants and
railroads transporting same are con
siderable, and which are supplying
their own needs first. The first wash
ery to commence In the Schuylkill field
Is the Anchor, of the Philadlphia and
Reading. The Lehigh Coal and Navi
gation company continues to run coal
through breakers Nos. 4 and 12 and is
shipping coal to market.
"The Mt. Lookout colliery, at Wyo
ming, started up during tho week In a
small way, and mules are being taken
back to mine No, 7 of the Pennsylvania
Coal company and the Kingston Coul
company's colliery, and It Is thought
work will he resumed theie In a few
iiays. The collieries now operating
thioughout the region are the Dickson
of the Delaware and Hudson, at Scran
ton; the Hutchlns, of the Hutchlns'
Coal company, the Dusky Diamond, of
Reese & Davis, at Beaver Brook; the
Oxford, of the People's Coal company,
at Scrunton; the Cayuga, of the Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western, No,
7, of the Susquehanna Coal company,
Mt, Lookout, of the Temple Coal and
Iron company, and the Dodge, of the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western,
at Scranton,
"The washerles running are produc
ing about lo.OOO tons a day, nnd this Is
likely to Increase more rapidly now
with the product of the mines as the
disintegration of the strike goes on.
The opinion that, as the relief fund Is
piovlng entirely Inadequate to the
needs of the men, the strike cannot
continue much longer, nnd two weeks,
at the outside one month, will see most
of the men back at work again,"

MOTION WAS
VOTED DOWN
LABOR TICKET NOT NOMINATED
LAST NIOHT.
Majority of the Delegates Were of
the Opinion That It Would Be Un
wise to Go Into Politics Just Now.
Mine Workers' Delegates Were
Particularly Opposed to the Idea.
The Economic League Was Organ
ized as the Political Wing of the
Labor Movement.
Two hundred and eight delegates,
representing labor unions nnd trades
councils throughout the valley, met
last night In Economy hall and or
ganized, for political purposes, an as
sociation which is to be known as the
JOHN H. DEVINE,
Prchldent ot tho Economic League.
Economic League of Lackawanna
county. The convention was In ses
sion from 7.30 until 10.45 o'clock.
The greater part of the meeting was
taken up in discussion of the advis
ability of Immediately nominating a
ticket to be put In the field at the fall
elections. A large number of speeches
were made on the subject, the major
ity of speakers arguing against taking
any political action while the miners'
strike Is in progress, and a motion to
take instant action was overwhelming
ly defeated by a vote of 198-10.
DEVINE WAS CHAIRMAN.
The meeting was called to order at
7.30 o'clock by President William Cor
less, of the Typographical union. Presi
dent John H. Devlne, of the Central
Labor union, and Recording Secretary
E. C. Patterson were unanimously
elected chairman and secretary of the
meeting, nnd later were made per
manent officers of the league. The ex
amining of delegates' credentials con
sumed considerable time, one hundred
and four credentials being presented
by two hundred and eight delegates.
The advisability of proceeding to the
nomination of a labor ticket then came
up for discussion. J. F. Hammes, of
the Stonecutters, expressed himself as
heartily In favor of taking immediate
action. Thomas Hopkins, of the Uni
ted Mine Workers, spoke briefly In a
non-committal manner, nnd James Ac
kerly compared industrial conditions In
this country and Great Britain, claim
ing that America Is In, this respect in
ferior to the mother country.
Delegate Maloney, of the Horseshoers'
union, spoke against the convention
taking action, as did also Domlnlck
Dempsey, of the United Mine Workers
of America. Peter Holden, of the
painters, spoke to the same effect as
Delegate Hammes.and Delegate Freese,
of the Bricklayers, advised the league's
taking an Initiative, and spoke glowing
ly of the excellent conditions which
would result from a referendum, as
exemplified in Switzerland.
THOUGHT IT UNWISE.
William Corless emphatically de
clared that It would be unwise to pre
cipitate a struggle at present in poli
tics, but advised that steps be taken
towards tho effecting of a potent or
ganization, which will be able to place
a ticket in the field at future elections.
Hugh Franey, of the Metal Workers;
A. J. Atkinson, of the Painters; Dele-
H. C. PATTI1RSON,
Secretary of the Economic I.eneuo
gates Indian nnd Fltzputiick, of the
United Mine Workers, and President
P, J, Shea, of the Railway Employes'
union, all argued against taking any
action last night.
The last speaker was Secietary
Treasurer John T, Dempsey, of District
No. 1 of the United Mine Woi Iters.
"IU you nominate a ticket tonight," he
said, "you are not treating tho mine
workers fairly, You urn not treating
Jolm Mitchell fnhly, when, dutlpg his,
absence, you plunge the mine workers'
Into a political struggle, The teal
point at Issue Is not the placing In the
field of a political ticket. It's the win
ning of the miners' strike, to which the
undivided attention of the labor unions
should be directed,"
Remarks by a number of the t,peul:
ers weto greeted by hearty applause
from the delegates. After Secietary
Dempsey's lemuiks tho motion wus
voted down by the convention, Chair
man Devlne appointing as tellers, J. F,
Humnies, Hugh Fraype and Wlllluin
Cot less. A caucus of mine workers wus
held before the meeting nt the drum!
Central hotel. Only about fifteen dele
gates were present.
