CAPTAIN MAY
MAKES DENIAL
SUNDAY PAPER'S STATEMENT
ENTIRELY FALSE.
Never Said the Miners Were to Be
Given a Ten Per Cent. Advance, or
Anything of the Kind At a Loss
to Explain How Such an Utterance
Could Bo Attributed to Him Com
pany Officials Looking for a Break
in the Strikers' Ranks.
Somewhat of a flurry was caused yes
terday by the announcement In a Sun
day paper thai Captain Mny, "general
manager of tho Temple Coal and Iron
company," had stated that the strike
would be over In two weeks nnd Hint
the miner were to be given u ten per
cent, ndvanco.
On the face of It, tho story was un
reliable, because Captulu May Is not
general manager of tho "Temple Coal
nnd IronYonipuny," but many evidently
took It to be authentic, because of the
alleged authority of the story being di
rectly quoted by the article In ques
tion, and once more the strikers had
their hopes of victory fulsely raised.
Captulu May, when seen yesterday
by u Tribune reporter, said tho story
was absolutely false. He not only did
not suy what was credited to him
but all along has said, when occasion
required It, that there would be no set
tlement of the strike except by the
miners returning to work as they hud
come out.
How It came that bo should be cred
ited with such utterances was more
than Captain May could explain.
SOME INDICATIONS.
Captain May, In common with tho
other local heads of the ?oal com
panies, believes that tho strike will not
last much longer, but they look for It
to end by a break In the strikers' ranks.
In anticipation of such a break, cars
that have been lying idle at distant
yards and switches are being moved to
the coal regions, und coal which was
being held in reserve in this region Is
now going to the seaboard in liberal
quantities.
Neither the company oflieluls nor the
strike leadens will even risk a guess as
to what Senator Piatt has to base his
reiterated prediction upon, that the
strike will end in ten days. The com
pany ofitcials say he is talking ut ran
dom. The strikers' leaders express
faith In the reliability of the statement,
but declare they know nothing as to
how Senator l'latt expects the strike
will end.
President John Mitchell ran up from
Wilkes-Barre yesterday afternoon and
spent the day and evening with per
sonal friends. He remained over night
nt the St. Charles and will return to
Wilkes-Barre this morning.
The Delaware and Hudson company
on Saturday operated three of Its col
lieries, the Marvine. Dickson and Von
Storch. The Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western is operating aIx. This
makes ten collieries and twenty wash
cries now In operation In the First and
Second districts. Their estimated out
put is 17,000 tons a day.
CHARGED WITH THREATS.
The Jirsl arrest of a national officer
of the United Mine Workers for a
breach of the peace took place Satur
day, when Patrick Fitzslmmons, of
Prleeburg, one of tho national auditors,
was taken into custody on a warrant
from Alderman Kasson's office, charg
ing him with making threats. The
prosecutor is Otis Walton, a Dela
ware und Hudson workman. Ho
alleges that Fltzslinmons came to
his house, with a number of other
strikers, and, after calling him
and other members of his family
opprobrious names, made threats
against his life. He is alleged to have
declared: "If I had Jive more men with
me, there wouldn't be a scab left In
those parts."
Fitzslmmons waived a hearing and
enteied ball before a local justice of
tho pence.
The houso of William Tosker, a Dela
ware and Hudson mine fireman, living
In Mooslc, just across the county line,
was stoned by a croud of strikers Sat
urday night. Sheriff Jacobs, of Lu
zerne, was notified and hastened depu
ties to tho scene. Before they arrived,
the attack had subsided and the crowd
dispersed.

POUR-COUNTY LEAGUE.
Suggestion to Put Base Ball on a
Firm Footing for Season of
1903.
In view of the countless number of
llrst-class amateur and semi-professional
base bull games played during
the present season in Lackawanna, Lu
zerne, Susquehanna and Wayne coun
ties, It bus been suggested that a Four
County league for the season of 1903 be
organized.
Tennis to be located In Sci union,
Wilkes-Barre, PIttston, Curhondale,
Honesdnle, Olyphunt, Montrose and
Susquehanna. Each team to employ
homo talent or players who are pro
vided With positions In each town.
Gaines to be played Wednesdays, Sat
urdays and holidays.
An excellent schedule could be ar
ranged, with easy jumps, at compara
tively little expense, and the guarantee
would be In keeping with the receipts
of the game. Popular prices should pre
vail. The Interest created would be wide
spread, and some excellent players
would be developed. There Is plenty of
good material to select from In each
town. The suggestion' is offered by W.
R. Hughes, of The Tribune, who has
always taken a deep interest in the
national game.
Communications, looking forward to
the organization of such u league, from
reputable people In each town suggest
ed, will be welcomed by Mr. Hughes,
and if sufficient interest Is expressed, a
league will be formed, and a meeting
of those interested will be called for
some future date.
The franchises will, of necessity, have
to be placed in reliable hands, enclosed
grounds secured, and each club will
have to put up a forfeit as a guarantee
of good faith before any team can be
accepted as a member of the league.
Communications from tho managers of
the Scranton sonii-professlonuls, Cnr
bondalo Crescents, Honesdnle Tigers,
Olyphnnt Browns, Susquehanna Stars,
Montrose team, PIttston Brothers and
the Wilkes-Barre team are Invited nnd
can be addressed to W. R, Hughes,
care of The Tribune, Scranton, Pa.
DREAD OP LITIGATION
DROVE HER TO DEATH
Mrs. Anna Merrill Took a Dose of
Carbolic Acid Case Was to Come
Up in Court Tomorrow.
Mrs. Anna Merrill, widow of the late
A. J. Merrill, ended her life yesterday
afternoon at 4 o'clock by taking two
ounces of carbolic acid. She was
prompted to the deed by worry over a
case In court.
By the will of her husband, who was
formerly In the clothing business In
this city, she wns left his whole estate,
amounting to about $12,000. Her hus
band's brothers contested the will al
leging that undue Influence had been
used to make her his sole heir, and also
that the decedent wns lacking testa
mentary capacity at the time the will
was made.
The hearing1 in the contest was to
take place before Judge Vosburg In Or
phans' court, at 10 o'clock this morn
ing. For several days past she has ex
pressed dread of the ordeal of going In
to court and yesterday was so worked
up over the approach of the hearing
thut it was feared she would be 111,
About 4 o'clock Mrs. E. C. Smith, a
relative, with whom she lived at No.
1420 Pine street, proposed they should
go out for u walk nnd Mrs. Merrill ac
qulsced. Mrs. Merrill went to the bath
room and was there only a few minutes
when Mrs. Smith heard her fall and
begin to moan.
Reaching the bath room, Mrs. Smith
dlscoveied Mrs. Merrill writhing In
agony on the door. She told what she
had done and said she wnnted to die.
Dr. Spttzer nnd Dr. Gibbons were
callled but could not save her. She ex
pired In the course of nn hour. A vial
which hud contained the ucld was
found In the bath room.
It had been purchased the day before
In a neighboring drug store. The de
ceased was forty-six years of age and
tho third wife of Mr. Merrill. She was
the daughter of Mrs, Jonas Bernlnger
of Cutawlssu.
Coroner Snltry wns notified but did
not regard nn Inquest as necessary.

REDS WERE OUTCLASSED
They Were Mowed Down by the
Scranton Semi-Professionals on
Saturday at the Park.
The Taylor Reds were outclassed by
the Scranton seml-professlonnls nt
Athletic park, Saturday afternoon,
when Manager Wlrth tried out his new
pitcher, Bray, of the Green Ridge
Amateurs. The youngster made good
In every department of the game, nnd
seems to possess good speed, has plenty
of curves, uses his head effectively, and
fields his position properly. Ho shut
out the Reds and nllowed them but
three hits, two of which were made
after he had a chance to retire tho side.
Only two men walked, und he struck
out six men. Bray's error was on a
low thrown ball to first, allowing the
runner to ndvance to second.
Touhlll hud an off day, both at the
bat and In the field. Tho first two trips
up he struck out, but the next two
times lilt safely, He erred on his first
and fourth chnnces, but each time got
his men on second and first.
Franls'erred on a hard hit ball, which
he stopped cleverly, but afterwards
booted away from him. Touhlll was
caught between first and second, and
also failed to touch second, and was
called out on each play.
Ferris led with the stick, having
three singles out of four times up. All
of the team played fnst, snappy ball,.
and some very pretty plays resulted.
Their base running was also a feature.
The Reds were never In the hunt,
only two men reaching third base, and
only three men went to bat In euch
inning, except the third and sixth in
nings. In the latter Phllbln reached
first on Touhill's error, but wns doubled
ut second on Shields' out at first. Then
Hayes hit a hot one directly at Bray,
who fulled to recover himself in time
to put the batter out. After that Man
gan singled, but both were left on bases
by Morris flying out to center. Had
Bray succeeded in throwing Hayes out
nt first, but one hit would have been
the sum total of the Reds' stick work.
Their throwing and fielding was very
ragged, most of their errors being- made
on such plays. Mangan in center field
could not stop a. ball or throw and
assisted in making Scranton runs. Mor
ris, Ingllss and Shields also fielded
recklessly. Davis at first was also
weak on receiving thrown balls. Left
fielder Day made three pretty running
catches. With a better team behind
him, Shields is capable of much better
work than the score indicates.
In the seventh the whole Scranton
team was at bat. Crane went out on a
fly to left field, Madenspncher reached
first on Ingllss' error, Francis, Touhlll,
Owens and McCue hit safely, scoring
three runs: Ferris struck out, Wirth
reached first on four wide ones, and
Bray forced him out at second. Sev
eral hundred people witnessed the
game. Following Is the detailed score:

P1PTY YEARS
IN GOETS WORK
DEATH OF ilEV. PHILIP FRED
ERICK ZIZELMANN.
Wns tho First Lutheran Minister in
Scrnnton and for Forty-one Succes
sive Years Served ns PaBtor of the
Zlon German Lutheran Church on
Mifflin Avenue Began His Minis
terial Work in Texas Over Half a
Century Ago Death Came Unex
pectedly Yesterday Morning.
Rev. Philip Frederick Zlzlomann, for
more than half a century a minister of
the Germun Lutheran church, died yes
terday morning, of henrt disease, at
the family home, 1532 Mulberry street.
April 18, last, while going on a call,
he suffered a fainting spell, as he was
walking along the Delaware, Lacka
wanna and Western tracks, In the
neighborhood of the old rolling mill
nnd fell over the embankment, sus
taining a severe wound on the head.
Since that time he has been falling. On
Saturday, Dr. Evcrhart was called to
attend him nnd told the family he
might live for several years or drop off
at any time, his pulse showing only
thirty to the .minute. At 9:45 o'clock
Saturday night, he retired after laying
out his clothes for Sunday, At 7 o'clock
yesterday morning he wns found dead
In bed. The condition of the body In
dicated that he had not been dead very
long.
RETIRED OCT. 1.
The deceased was the father of tho
Lutheran churches of Scrnnton. Oct.
1, 1901, he retired from the pastorate of
tho Zlon Lutheran 'church on Mifflin
nvenue, after a continuous service In
tho same church for' more than forty
one years. His first charge here was
a small congregation which assembled
in tho old hall In the Monies v& Pughe
building, corner of Washington und
Lackawanna avenues.
Mr. Zizlemnnn was born In Kleeborn,
near Stuttgart, Wuertemberg, Ger
many, on Oct. 10, 1821, his parents be
ing Christian and Anna Elizabeth
(Kranch). Ills father was a soldier In
the Napoleonic wars and fought
against Napoleon at Waterloo. In his
father's houso he learned those prin
ciples of religion which turned his
thoughts toward the Christian minis
try. Having been confirmed as a mem
ber of the Lutheran church, and hav
ing passed through the schools of his
native town, he attended the University
of Basel In Switzerland. After com
pleting his studies there, he was or
dained to the ofllce of a gospel min
ister at Loerach, Baden, in 1851.
He was sent by the church authori
ties of his native province as a mis
sionary to gather the scattered Ger
mans in the New World Into congre
gations and to bring to them the
Christian faith of their fathers.
Landing at Galveston, Texas, in 1831,
after a voyage of forty-nine days, he
plunged into the work of a pioneer mis
sionary on the outskirts of civilization.
He labored most successfully for ten
yeirrs In Texas, establishing congrega
tions and building churches at San An
tonio and Fredericksburg' nnd gather
ing the nucleus of future congregations
at other places.
While at Fredericksburg he was mar
ried to Miss Christiana Barbara Schlot
erbeck, a native of Weurtemberg, like
himself, who proved a true helpmeet to
him in his arduous work.
Leaving Texas In the spring of 1S60
with his young wife he went to New
York, broken in health by his pioneer
labors. He was soon called by the
authorities of the Evangelical Luth
eran Mlnlsterlum of Pennsylvania to
look after the interests of the Lutheran
church In Lackawanna county.
Thus Mr. Zlzlemann made his first
acquaintance with Scranton, then a
comparatively insignificant place. On
May 18, 1840, he organized Zlon Ger
man church of this city, the congrega
tion worshipping for three years In a
ball on Lackawanna avenue. In 1SG3
the present location on Mifflin avenue
with a small church was purchased
from a Welsh congregation. This
church was twice enlarged to accom
modate the growing congregation in
1SG6 and 188G.
THE MOTHER CHURCH.
This congregation has become the
mother church of seven other Lutheran
churches in Scranton nnd has exerted
an influence in Lutheran church work
all through this region, Mr, Zlzlemann,
himself organized St. Peter's Lutheran
church of Petersburg In 1SC0, building
a church and continuing1 as pastor for
ten years. His activity also extended
to other points In the Lnckawnnna
valley, as he preached frequently In
school houses and private houses In the
many villages of this section to the
scattering members of his flock. There
are few of the older Germnn families
In the city to whom "Father" Zlzel
mnnn, us he was affectionately called,
did not nt some time minister In his
pustotul work.
He was of u quiet, even retiring dis
position, his sturdy German piety
dreading all notoriety and sensation
alism, und averse to publishing his
works nnd deeds to the world. He was
n ninn universally respected und be
loved by all with whom he came In
contact and his loss will be sincerely
mourned by a very large circle of
friends.
Ho was the father of seven children,
