There are now nearly -0no soldiers
inciinipcd within the limits of I.ackn-
Manna county. The Twelfth reftliuelit,
tiOO strotiK, In coiiiinaiid of Colonel C.
.M. Cleliientp, arrived hero yesterday
inorniiiB and went into cainp In the
Soecmd ward between Theodore nnd
Jones streets near the old Itlver Slop"

The rSovornm's troop, of Hariishurs.
arrived at Olypliant to replace the
Sheridan troop, and detachments from
IJallery P. of T'lineiilxvlllt', will Join the
KlKhth. Twelfth and Thirteenth regi
ments today.
From henceforth no leniency will he
shown by the soldiery towards violat
ors of the law ami disturbers of the
peace. Hrlgadier General Ciobln yes
terday Instructed the commanders of
ill I he leKlinetits In the Third brigade
to carefully follow out that portion of
fiovernor Stone's order, issued on .Mon
day nislit, which reads as follows:
"He (the major-general commanding)
will protect all trains and other prop
erty from unlawful Interferance. and
will arrest all poisons engaging In acts
of violence and Intimidation and hold
them under guard until their release
will not endanger the public peace."
(ieneral C.ohiu had been Instructed
by Major General Miller that tills or
der means exactly what it said, and
he has Instructed the regimental com
manders to act accordingly. Any per
son who cither commits any open act
of violence directed against either the
men employed at the mines or the sol
diers on duty or who Incites to riot or
uses threatening language, will be im
mediately placed under arrest and kept
confined In the guard house until tho
colonel commanding deems his release
warranted.
ORDER ENFORCED.
The first Instance In which tills order
was literally Interpreted in this vicin
ity was at Olypliant yesterday, when
S. I'csella and Anthony Hottl. two for
eigners, called at the Olypliant station
for a big box of ammunition which
had been received there consigned to
!Jessala. Colonel Wat res was Informed
of the arrival of the ammunition and
dispatched Captain Footo and a detail
to arrest whoever called for it,
Tho two men above mentioned were
placed under arrest when they came
for the box, and were taken to camp
and placed In the guard house. When
asked how long they would be ke'pt
there. Lieutenant Colonel Stlllwell, who
was in command In the afternoon, said
"until we are ready to let them go."
Tho distribution of the troops of the
Third brigade as finally decided upon
by General Gobln Is now as follows;
Fourth regiment, Colonel Christopher
0'N'ell-One batlalloii al Xantleoke and
one battalion at I'lynumth, and two com

GOBIN AT WILKES-BARRE.
General Goblu has decided to estab
lish permanent lieadriiinrters at Wllkes
Harre and secured a large suite of
rooms yesterday in tho Coal ICxchaiigi?
building In that city. Hnth himself
and the members of his staff will live
at tho Tlotol Sterling,
Tho distribution of the troops came
rather as a surprise to those who have
given the situation much consideration.
It was thought that the Twelfth regi
ment would be divided Into two bat
talions, one of which would bo en
camped on the West mountain near the
head of Jackson street, but this Idea
was abandoned. The olllcers of the
Thirteenth had reported to the general
us to the advisability of locating at
least one battalion at Mayfleld to cover
the territory between thure and Oly
phnut, but this plan was not adopted.
Tho First battalion of tho Twelfth J
regiment arrived in tins city over tho
Delawarii and Hudson railroad at 10
o'clock yesterday morning, and
Hunched from the Green Uldge station
to the camp ground, which had been
s'ieeted by captain Drake, of Genera)
Gobln'x staff. The Second battalion,
hfiidqtmrteiH and the hand arrived
over the Ontario and Western rail
road a half hour later, Tlieio are but
two battailous in the leglment, each
comprised of live companies,
Tlio camp ground selected lies be
tween Theodore and Jones street and Is
owned by the Vim Starch estate. It
Is a fairly level plot on tho top of the
hill which slopes up from North Main
avenue.
ARRANGING THE CAMP.
The tents nnd eainn equipage arrived
on tho same train as the soldiers and
two dozen teams were immediately
pressed Into service to convey It to the
camp ground. The work of making
camp was begun shortly before noon,
and by sundown all the tents were ti?
and the camp was looking fairly ship
shape, though it will tako a day or
two inure to got It In proper trim. The
headquarters' street Is at the westerly
end of the camp ground, with the tents
facing the city,
Colonel Clements, who was busily
engaged all afternoon In personally su
perintending the laying out of the
tamp, said that his orders, from Gen
eral Gobln were to encamp his reel
mem all ut one point and follow out
the Instructions contained In fiovernor
Stone's general order of Mondny night.
"1 know of no further distribution of
my regiment bollig contemplated," ho
said, "1 Intend to obey my orders rela
tive to Governor Stone's Instructions to
the tetter."
Tho First battalion of the Twelfth
regiment comprises two companies
from Stinbtiry, Colonel Clements' home,
one company from Danville, one from
Lewlslnwn unit one from .Milton, The
Second battalion comprises three com
panies from Wllllanippoit, one from
Sunbury and one from t.oiit Haven.
The field and staff olllcers are as fol
lows! Colonel, P. M. Clements, of Sun
bury; lieutenant colonel, W. K. Itiirher,
of Lewlntmvn; senior major, P. V,

LONG IN THE FIELD.
The Twelfth has been in the Held
since July ill, having responded with
the Klghth regiment to the first call
for troops, It was llrst sent to Shen
andoah, where It remained until a few
weeks ago, when the First battalion
was sent to Lebanon to do special duty
during the strike of the employes or
the sleel company there, The First
battalion has more lately been sta
tioned at M'aiiUKiua.
The regiment has a total membership
of filo and about Mill were reported to
be present at camp last night, The
men are bronzed from their long ser
vice and are a due, Intelligent looking
lot of sold lei s.
The Governor's troop, of Hurrisburg,'
In command of Captain Ott. arrived al
the Thirteenth's timp, at Olypliant,
about L'.BO o'clock yesterday afternoon
on a special Ontario and Western train.
The Sheridan troop, whom they re
lieved, didn't begin breaking camp until
3 o'clock, so that the Hurrisburg Hoop
ers were obliged to hustle to get their
canvas up by bedtime. The Sheridan
troop goes to Ashland.
This Hoop occupies the same camp
ground as did the Hheiidan troop, on
tho side of the hill to the east of the
Thirteenth's camp. It will be subject
to the orders of Colonel Watres.
There was no disorder ot any conse-
j quenee within the territory covered by
j the Thirteenth, yesterday, and no de
I tails except the regular ones were sent
j out. Majors Field and Kobling con
ducted an examination for corporals'
and sergeants' certificates In the morn
ing and the thirteen applicants who
presented themselves all passed credit
ably. TO LEAVE THE EIGHTH.
Orders were received at the camp of
the Klghth regiment, at Duryea, last
night from brigade headquarters direct
ing1 the two companies of the Fourth
regiment now stationed there to join
their battalions at Plymouth and Xantl
eoke this morning;. These two com
panies have been assigned to the Klghth
ever since the first call for troops was
made, but now that the entire Fourth
regiment is In the Held it has been
deemed advisable to have them Join
that command.
A company of the Klghth regiment
will be sent to West I'ltlston this morn
ing. Operations are to be resumed at
one of the Lehigh Valley collieries In
that region, and Sheriff Jacobs has re
quested that military protection be ac
corded the men who return to work.
Lieutenant Colonel Hutchinson has de
cided to station a company lit that
vicinity permanently and will keep the
commands sent there relieved twice in
the twenty-four hours.
The condition of Colonel T. F. Hoff
man, of the Klghth regiment, who is at
the Moses Taylor hospital, was reported
last night to be very serious. He was
somewhat improved yesterday, but his
physicians say that the crisis has yet
to be passed.
The Mt. Lookout colliery of the Tem
ple Iron company, loiutnl at Wyoming,
was opened yesterday for the first time
since the beginning of the strike and
an output of 100 tons was secured.
Sleeping (piarters for IM) men are being
lilted up at the mine and the men who
have returned to work will be rpiarteied
there under guard of a number of
deputies.
OUTPUT WILL INCREASE.
General Superintendi nt S. B. Thome
said yesterday that the output of the
mine would be very largely Increased
today. He Intimated that operations
will bo resumed at one or two more of
the company's collieries early next
week, but would say nothing definite
regarding this. The only other colliery
this company now has in operation is
the Kdgerton,
The superintendents of the other coal
companies had nothing to report ex
cept a gradual Increase In the number
of men returning to work at all the
collieries now In operation. It. seems to
bo very evident, however, that an ac
tive effort looking toward a more gen
eral resumption of work will be made
next week, when the additional troops
have become settled in their new
camps.
Local operators pooh-poohed the
strike settlement rumors which were
pouting In from New York yesetrday.
One and all seemed convinced that they
originated In the minds of persons who
were very desirous of bringing about a
rise In certain stocks. They had re
ceived no Intimation that any conces
sions would be granted, and were firm
In their belief that the presidents of
tho several companies are as deter
mined as over to grant none of the de

OPPOSITION TO
NEW FRANCHISE
IT DEVELOPED IN COMMON

Those Favoring the Passage of the
Ordinance Awarding a Franchise to
the Lackawanna Company Were In
the Majority, However, nnd a Mo
tion to Re-commit the Measure
Was Defeated Controller Costello

Contracts Are Entered Into.
The opponents of the ordinance
awarding a franchise to the Lacka
wanna Light, Heat and Power com
pany showed their hand In common
council last night, but could muster
only eleven votes out of the twenty-live
cast.
The ordinance was reported by the
light and water committee, with the
amendments approved at the last nie'et
Ing of that body. The report was
signed by the chairman only, and an
objection of Irregularity was raised by
the opposition, Mr. Giirrell moving
that the ordinance be re-conimltted.
This motion was lost by the following
vote:

amendments; presented by the commit
tee, Later on, when the ordinance was
called up on llrst and second reading,
nearly all of the members who voted to
recommit llled out In the hall, this
breaking the uorum and causing an
adjournment.
FMO.M THK COXTUOLLKIt.
Quite some little discussion was cre
ated by the reading of Controller Cos
tello's communication, giving his rea
sons lor withholding-his approval of
certain bills contracted by the depart
ment of public works and expressing a
desire to have the matter threshed out
In court. This communication was ac
companied by a second one, In which he
announced that he Intends to withhold
his approval In the future of all bills
for feed for fire horses, unless the feed
Is purchased by contract after bids
have been asked for.
The select council resolution, provid
ing for the taking of an appeal from
any judgments which may be obtained
by any of the persons whose bills are
being held up, was submitted with the
communications.
Mr. Keller thought it unjust to com
pel these men to go into court and pay
lawyers' foes to collect an honest debt,
all because of a difference of opinion
between city ofllclals. He had no per
sonal feeling, he said, and praised Con
troller Costello warmly for his appar
ent desire to do his duty as he sees it.
Mr. Partridge favored taking one
claim and agreeing to a case stated.
The resolution was finally referred to
the city solicitor for a suggestion as to
the best way of settling tho matter.
ttei.'order Council sent la a veto of an
ordinance providing for sidewalks on
Price street, between Hroniley and Gar
field avenues, giving as Ills- reasons the
fact that to properly lay them the grade
would have to be so altered as to cause
damages to a number of properties. The
veto was sustained.

Throughout Jewish literature, the same
strain of thought Is amply demonstrated,
mid from a standpoint In equity, It has
become, the, legal rode throughout the
civilized world. In tegal jurisprudence,
no one can alone for another's crime,
which Is the recognized standard of Jus
tice, upon whose solid fortres Juduhtn
rests. Judaism asserts that the universe
Is governed by God, and God's law ciin
noi bp violated with Impunity. The prin
ciple of Justice Is the stronghold of the
nation, as welt us Hie Individual.
The nation that delle Its tenets must
sooner or Inter bring upon Itself retribu
tion. The Individual when steeped In
ci line, cannot esciipe Its consequences.
In recognizing Nature's laws. Judaism
has, for this reason, Instituted the Atone
ment Day, to serve as a search-light
upon the Individual, an well as the com
munity, It Is on a day as this, when
man dwells within the precincts of a
temple dedicated for God's writ ship, when
all commercial and other worldly occu
pations are passed Into oblivion, that ho
may commune with himself and learn,
for at leas', one day, to ho true to him
self; to meditate upon his actions In the
past, and form new and nobler resolu
tion for the future. What more Inspir
ing moment can there be for self exam
ination than amidst such surroundings.
At no peilod In man's history was there
greater need for such a day as this than
at present. With the hurry and bustle
of our modern civilization, few men enn
stop' by the wayside for self-reflection
upon life's mis-Ion. Judaism has there
fore again come to the rescue by bidding
man to hall, at least for one day In the
year, to be at peace with himself, so as
to enable him to be at pence with his
fellow-man. The ethical effect of this
solemn day has a three-fold character
It serves to bring peace to the Individual,
peace to tho connmuilty, anil helps man
to go out with a stronger and clearer
niluil, so to win the world's battles for
lightcotMiPss. Justice and charity.
Furthermore the day stands out as a
rebuke to those that cry out that re
ligion has no Influence upon man's char
acter. The potent power Judaism wields
upon the Jew needs no description from
the writer. The moral standard of the
Jew stands out in an Ideal for mankind.
In spite of the assertions made by thoe
that are still blinded by prejudice, the
Impartial observer must admit' of the
high standard of morality existing among
Jews. The very fact of the Jew holding
a position of eminence in the commer
cial world Is sufficient indication ot his
standing among the community, for no
man can attain commercial success with
out exercising honesty and Integrity In
his dealings. In his domestic relation
ship, the diadem of virtue Is -till worn
by the Jew. It Is. therefore, for Inspira
tion to lead a purer and nobler life, for
betterment of humanity, for righteous
ness and Justice. Hint the Jew will again
put away all manner of commercial ac
tivities nnd Join Willi the throng march
ing toward the house of God. singing

said unto me, let us go up unto the house
