MAY RESUME
WEDNESDAY
NO PROTRACTED SESSION OF
THE MINERS.
Because of tho 'Thoroughly Estab
lished Pact That Little Opposition
Will Develop to the Arbitration
Proposition, It Is Possible That tho
Convention May Last Only One
Day President Nicholls of tho
Opinion That the Sessions Will Be
Concluded Some Time Tuesday.
It Is possible that the miners will bo
buck nt work Wednesday, but tho
probabilities arc the order to return will
ho made effective for Thursday.
The preliminary work of receiving the
duplicate credentials and making up
the roll-call lias been done by the dis
trict etT"tnrles. The convention enn bo
completely organized and down to busi
ness bv noon.
There Is no tellltu: bow Ioiik the con
vention will Inst, but in the opinion of
District President Nlcbolls It will con
clude ItM work some time Tuesday, It
is not Improkfble Hint the convention
may, by holding a night session, reach
adjournment In oik day, In which ciiho
the order lo return to work can bo
tinted for Wednesday.
Theic is some opposition to the ac
ceptance of the operators' arbitration
proposition, but this will likely melt
away when President Mitchell recom
mends acceptance. Tho chief cause of
the opposition Is that there lias been no
undei standing1 as to the strikers belns
all re-eniployed. Piesldent Mitchell has
declared that tills Is only a fancied
dllllculty. The companies are so anx
ious to mine coal, be argues, that all
tho men who will go back and more,
ton, can find places.
The companies aie pushing the work
of cleaning up the mines and making
ready for resumption. Hhicksniiths and
their helpers, with the acquiescence of
the union, will return to work today, to
shin pen tools and assist In repair work.
The inulos have been taken back from
pasture and shod, and, In some places,
will bo takeii underground at once. As
far as this region is concerned, a largo
pprcenluge, easily more than half, of
the average tonnage will be gotten out
at once.
Relief Cut' Off.
Secretary Dempsey, of District No. 1,
Vnlted Mine Workers, sent out notices
to the locals, Satin day, to cense- dis
pensing relief until after the conven
tion. This is taken as an Indication
that the ofllcors arc confident the con
vention will vote to end the strike.
Another box of explosives was found
nt CJrassy Island, Satiuriay. Colonel
Wattes hcaid there was a quantity of
dynamite stored at Green's hotel, and
bent Major Field and two companies to
get It. They returned with a box con
taining twenty sticks of dynamite.
Proprietor Orcen was away and his
wife could give no explanation of how
the explosive came to be stored on their
premises.
The guard house at the Thirteenth Is
now empty. Two of the quartette that
has been there since Friday, on suspic
ion of being connected with the at
tempted dymuniting at Grassy Island,
wore paroled. The other two, Domlulck
Trobriza and Anthony Helta, who nro
alleged to have shot at Frank Kroszka,
at Grassy Island. Wednesday night,
woie held In $1,000 bail by Alderman
KiiM-on, Saturday night. They secured
bondsmen. Uettn. is one of tlio two men
who was captured while calling nt the
expiess office In Olyphant for a box
containing L',000 rounds of ammunition.
Colonel AVatres let hhn go on parole at
that time.
Robert AVIlson, an engineer at the
Diamond, was attacked by a crowd of
young Mono-throwers, Saturday after
noon, wlille on his way to work. He
drew Ills revolver and threatened to
shoot, but this did not scare the crowd.
Barn Hops McAvaney arrived on the
scene when tlio situation was growing
tense, and succeeded in getting tlio
opposing sidea to each go Its way.
There wcio big crowds at all tlio camps
yesterday afternoon. The Twelfth, in
North Scranton, had fully 12,000 per
sons looking on at dress parade, while
tho Thirteenth and Klghth were not far
behind in this regard.
The eighth regiment conducted an
election, Saturday, to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Colonel Hoff
man and such other vacancies as the
election might cause. Lieutenant Col
onel Hutchinson was elected colonel, as
was expected. Major W. II. Holmes, of
St. Clair, was made lieutenant colonel,
and Captain John Owens, of Pottsvllle,
was made major. Captain Owens' place
as commander of Company H war, tilled
by the election of l.loutenant ,1. n.
lloopstino. Quartermaster Sergeant
Charles Forty was made lieutenant.
THE MEN WHO DAHEDA
Mr. Torrey at Boston Commends
Non-Union Mine Workers.
The following extract from an nd
dio.ss delivered by Jnmes H. Torrey,
esq,, last week before the Uoston Hoot
and .Shoo club Is of public Interest Just
now. That portion of Mr, Torroy's ad
dress, tho lloston Herald says, was
iheoied enthusiastically:
Whutexcr mil be the opinion of Indi
vidual, or the public with reference to
tho diameter and motives of either tho
operatois or the Ml Ike leaders, or of tlio
rank ami die of tlio miners, thero can bo
no possible diuYrouco of opinion among
Int'dllgent men a to the estlniHte which
should bo put upon tho thousands of non
union workers who Imvo throughout this
strike vindicated, at tho risk of their
own lives and tho peaco nud security of
their famlllop, their Qod-givea light to
perform honest labor for tho support of
themselves and those dear to them.
Tlieso men have inhibited a heroism as
admirable a any that has ever been
displayed upon a Held of buttle, and to
thoso who have been closely associated
with tho contest It Is the mystery of mys.
telle that tho sympathy of tho great
American public, which lias been so
liberally extended to tho supposed down
trodden and oppressed nilno workers, hm
paused unnoticed this heroic band of
quiet and unassuming Americans. To
them may nut unfairly bo applied tho
words of your Lowell:
"The bravely dumb, that did their deed
And scorned to Idol it with a name;
Men of tho plain heroic breed
That loved Heaven's silence more than
fame.''
They Pay tho User,
If you wish a half-tone or line cut,
Jet the Scranton Tribune make It for
you. Our equipment for this work Is
complete and up-to-date. Wo have
facilities for doing the finest sort of
work at lowest prices and what's more,
we do It. A trial order will convince
you.

BOTH CONVENTIONS
WERE IRREGULAR
So Decided Judge Weiss In His Opin
ion in the Lackawanna
Cases.
In an opinion handed down nt Hartis
burg, Saturday, Judge Weiss decided
that both the Music hall and Mclvln
hull conventions were Irregular and
that the nominations nf each which
were contested can not stand,
This leaves both Howell and Sando
on only one ticket, that ot tho Antl
Machlnc party. The Democratic col
umn will bo headed by tho state ticket,
then will come blank spaces under tho
captions nf congressman and Judge,
and beneath that will appear the names
of Durkin and Uurschell, candidates for
commissioners, and P. J. Moore, can
didate for mine Inspector, these three
last named nominees not having been
contested.
Tho Mclvln hall Independent Demo
cratic nominations of Durkin and
Burschcll for commissioners and Moore
for Inspector are likely to be wiped out,
a contest having been Instituted to In
validate them in tho local courts. Tho
Blewitt nomination was erased by the
Independent-Democratic managers be
fore their papers were filed, lt having
come to their knowledge that he is not
eligible for the Inspectorship, because
ofhls not having a certificate of com
petency provided for In the act.
The Union party column will contain
the names of A'osburg for -judge, and
Morris and Uurschell for commission
ers. All tho other nominations of this
party were knocked out at Harrlsburg.
Tho Ballot-Reform column will have
Connell for congress. Iloban was on
this ticket for judge, but withdrew. In
the Antl-Maehino column will appear
the filll Democratic ticket from Pat
tison down, Including aIo senatorial
and legislative candidates.
The Socialist Labor party will have
a candidate for congress, Banou, but
Its other nominations have been at
tacked and may be thrown out. The
nomination of William Franz for coun
ty commissioner on tho Citizens' ticket
has also boon attacked, and is likely
to bo declared invalid. The Prohibi
tionists have a full ticket In the field
and will probably get their usual third
column on the ballot. The Antl
Maehljie column will possibly be the
fifth or sixth on the ballot.
The decision of Judge Weiss invali
dating the Council, Howell and Sando
nominations was, as expected, based on
the neglect of the primary officers to
observe tho law requiring that they
make return to the convention of tlio
oath they took before entering upon
the duties of their office.

Saturday was a ureal day In The Tri
bune's Kdticiitlonal Contest, by long
odds the greatest in many ways of any
day since the beRlnnlns of this spirited
struBslc. more than live months aso.
Almost on the eve of the cIopIiie hoilrs,
It would seem ns If each control, mt
MAXWKLIi HI1HPIIUKD.
Wlnnor of Snoclal I'onlcHt
would hoop closely guarded every point
ho bad ."o as to niahe a greutir Impres
sion on the last day, as has hitherto
boon tlio case; but, instead, liftccn of
the leaders, each oiio doubtless belk-v-lliE
that every other contestant would
bo wary of disclosing his strength, camo
to tho conclusion to inaho an effort to
win the special prize offered to tho con
testant who would score tho largest
number of points for the week begin
ning October 13. In nil S70 points were
scored on Saturday, divided as follows:
Os-car H. Kipp 153
Maxwell Shepherd 147
Albert Fropdman ,...1U

Although Jlr, Kipp brought In the

ho had tcoreil but two points previ
ously during the -week, whereas Max
well Shepherd, of C.irbondalo, who
bcored 117 points on Saturday, had
scored 10 points during the earlier part
of (ho six days' life of the Special Con
test, thus making a total of 1C3 points
against Mr. Klpp's 153. Consequently
Mr. Shepherd wins tho Special Contest
and the prize of $5 In gold by eight

As a result of the great number of
points scoicd numerous cIiiiurcs oc
curred In the positions of the different

Saturday, these being A. .1. Kellerman,
In ilrst place; William T, S. noihiguez,
In third place; Fred K. Ounster, tlflh;
Herbert Thompson, seventh, and Albeit
Freedmnn. eighth, All tlie rest have
either ascended or descended. The pro
motions are as follows:
Oscar II. Kipp, of F.lmhurst, who was
sixth, passed Fred K. Ounster, William
Sherwood, William HodtiBiiez and
Climies Hums nud went lo second
place, which i he holds this morning by
It points. '
William llodtigucx mnlulalns third
place by having passed Charles Hums,
who drops from second to fourth place.
Maxwell Shepherd, who was eleventh,
passed (iitiiiofl V. Horsey and J. A.
Havenstiitp and goes to ninth plate,
which ho holds by u inaiglu ot 110
points.
Hcndiick Adams passed Harry Mad
den and L. K. Stanton and wont from
fourteenth to twelfth place.
Lewis Hates also passed Harry Mad
den and took fourteenth place, Air.
Madden dropping from thirteenth to
fifteenth.
Henry K. Collins, of Klzois, wont
from twclity-llfth to sixteenth place,
pacing John Mackic, Louis Ore, Will
lam Cooper, Hon ('. Capwell, Fred Kib
ler, Miss Mathewson, Miss Hnrpur,
Frank H. McCreary and Homer Kresge.
Elmer Williams, of Flmhurst, made
tho longest jump of any one, going up
from thirty-second place to twentieth,
and advancing over Leo Culver, Grant
M. Decker, Walter Hallstead, Miss
Coleman, Hugh Johnston, A. L. Clark,
John Mackic, Louis Clero, William
Cooper, Don C. Capwell, Fred Kibler
and Miss Mathewson.
A number of the contestants came to
the otllee on Saturday evening to ln
qulro who won the first prize, but no
information could be given on account
of the closeness of tin- scores of Mr.
Shepherd and Mr. Kipp. It was not
until a late hour that It wns ascer
tained to u certainty who the winner
was. In accordance with the rules of
the contest all subscribers "whoso
names are secured during the contest
must be absolutely new subscribers,
paid in advance, and each subscription
blank turned In by tho contestants had
to bo compared with tho list of sub
scribers on Tho Tribune's bookii, so as
to bo sure that the names on the blanks
did not violate tills requirement In any
way. It was a matter of some time to
examine several hundred of these
blanks, so no Information could be
given out on Saturday.
Today begins tho last week of the
contest. It Is hardly necessary to dwell
at length upon tho vital Importance of
each contestant doing his or her utmost
to better their standing during tho next
six days. The ones nearest the top ut
the end of the contest will have tho best
of it in many ways. When it Is deter
mined in what positions each one fin
ishes the one in first place, no matter
who lt may be, will have a free and
unrestricted choice of the thirty-three
scholarships. He or she may select
whatever scholarship suits best, or
whichever one lie or she believes they
are best qualified to enter upon. When
that is disposed of the contestant in
second place will have the same privi
lege of a choice from tho remaining
thirty-two scholarships, and this course
will bo pursued until all the scholar
ships aro gone.
It is a regrettable fact that the young
ladies who have entered tho contest
have not done nearly as well as tho
young men. This Is all the more to be
wondered at because there aro a num
ber of scholarships in the list peculiarly
suitable to young ladies, amojig them
being a scholarship in tho AVilkes-Uarro
Institute, a seminary exclusively for
young women; live In co-educational
preparatory schools; ten in music and
art; live in business colleges, and five
In tho International Correspondence
Schools. Not one young lady was
among thoso who helped to swell the
total of the record-breaking day on
Saturday, and the highest any of them
Is placed Is nineteenth position this
morning. Last year, among tlio win
ners of eight scholarships four of them
wero young ladies, and one of them had
more than twice as many points at tho
close as any young man. Perhaps tho
closing week will see an Improvement
In the work of tho young ladles.
Thero are six days more of the con
test, which closes nt S o'clock sharp on
Saturday, October -'3.
