SEVERAL GOAL GARS
THROWN JNTO A HEAP
FREIGHT "I'SAT' 'CRASHES
INTO COAL OAKS.
NONE OF THE GREWS INJURED
Seven Goal Oara Were "Wrecked
and the Freight Engine Suffered
Considerable Damage by
tho Collision.
AKlil last nignt &
wreck occurred on the
Lehigh branch of tho
Bead'tig Eai hond
system on the western
outskirts of the bjr
ougb. Sevoral coal
cars and a freight on-
gine were badly
damaged and several
hours were required to remove the wreck
age, but no person was Injured
At about half past six o'clock: last even
ing an east bound coal train pulled along
tho lower road past the Brownsville station
on to the long curve that leads to the deep
cut that is spanned by the borough bridgo
near the Kohinoor colliery. Tho coal
train was stopped midway between tha
Brownsville station and the bridgo and the
rear brabeman was lent back to signal
A moment or two later the Empire freight
train, with one engine in front and two
behind, bound from lit. Carmel to town,
thundered down the heavy grade from
the railroad on the mountain. Before the
crew of this train saw the signal of the coal
train brakoman it was too late to prevent a
collision. Tho front engine of the freight
train crashed into the rear end of the coal
train. The speed of the former train was
somewhat reduced before the crash. Had it
not been the damage would have run Into
thousands of dollars and tome of the crow
would have been killed, or very seriously
injured.
As a result of tho collision soyen loaded
coal cars were thrown Into a heap and the
smoke stack and other parts of the freight
engine were badly damaged. Wreck
crews arrived upon the scene withapparatus
at about seven o'clock and worked until
nearly midnight before they succeeded in
clearing away the wreckage.
No official announcement has been
made as to the cause of tho wreck, but it is
understood that the crew of the freight
train claim that the brakeman sent out to
signal did not get far enough to the rear of
the coal train.
Tho -wreck did not interfere with the
passenger traffic of the road.

DROWNED IN A DAM
George Katowicz Met Ills Death While
Swimming To-day.
At noon to-day, a poorly dressed, but
rather respectable looking man went up to
tho dam abovo the north end of Main
street and commencod to disrobe. He
chatted pleasantly for a few minutes with
tho young men and boys who loitered
about the placo and then waded into the
water.
The man Jumped up and down in the
water sovoral times. Those on the bask
thought the man was amusing himself.
Before entering the water he said he could
swim and none who witnessed his actions
entertained tho thought that bo was drown
ing. Suddenly tho man clapped his hands
over his face and disappeared beneath the
surface. He did not lise again.
After waiting a few minutes tho boys
who stood near the edge of the dam con
eluded that the man had drowned, and has
tened to town to give the alarm.
A young man named Thomas Jefferson,
residing at the corner of Main and Cop.l
streets, was one of those who hastened to
the dam. He stripped over his clothing
and dived into the water to search for tho
body.
After several ineffectual attempts Jeffor
son located the body in a place where the
water was about eight feet deep. He
brought the remains to the surface and,
with assistance, placed thorn on the bank
of the dam.
There was no one at the place to identify
the man, but a pass book found in a pocket
of the deceased's coat showed that Oeorgo
jvatowicz naa an account witft grocer
Charles Badzewicz.
A Hkbald reporter called at Mr,
Badzewicz's store on East Centre street
The name "George Katowicz" was found
in one of the ledgers and the clerks in the
store recognized the description of the
dead man given by tho reporter.
Tho clerks at once sent word to Adam
Mntalawlcz, of the First ward, with whom
Katowicz boarded, and arrangements wore
made to claim the body.
It was learned tnat ivratowicz was an
unmarried man about 21 years of age. He
is supposed to have been a resident of this
town for about two yearB. He was injured
in the mines about six months agoand since

GLEANINGS BY THE
LOCAL REPORTERS
AN
OLD LAW SUIT
AT LAST.
SETTLED
IT AROSE FROM STOCK DEALINGS
The First National Bank of Town
as Garnishee Yostorday Paid
tho Full Amount Claimed,
Interest and Costs.
OME TIME aeo Scott
f Sheller conducted a
stock brokers' office in
town as an agency of 1
the Hew York Clear-
ing House Company,
.Limited, and in a
short time he suc
ceeded in building up
quite a patronage,
One day the agency suspended business
and among those who failed to get their
money out in time were Lawyer W. D.
Seltzer, Jacob Kline and a man named
Green, of Pottsville.
Sellzer picked up his law books and
diligently searched the pagej for some hope
of relief. In due time he bad attachments
issued and the First National Bank of town
became a party to a Buit as garnishee.
At the time the attachment was issued
the banks held considerably over $2,000
claimed as assets of the company.
The suit went to court and Seltzer, Kline
and Green won on a trial before the last
term ot civil court.
Yesterday a deputy sheriff called at the
bank and received tho full amount of the
claims, interest and costs aggregating
$894.
It is understood that there aro some par.
ties in town who had claims but did not
sue in time and their chances for recover
ing now are very slim, ns, so tar as known,
thore are no assets in the state that can bo
attached, as the surplus over the amount
covered by the attachment was drawn from
the banks months ago.
TOOK HIS LITTLE SHOES AWAY

'Squire Shoemaker found comfort last
evening sitting on his front stoop and
smoking a Havana. To make himself
more comfortable he took off his shoes and
placed them beside his seat. When the
'squire had sufficiently refreshed himself be
entered his house to retire for the night,
I forgetting to take his shoes with him. At
an early hour this morning a foot-sore
tramp passed the house. His eyes fell upon
the shoes, but, perceiving that the eyes of
neighbors had fallen upon him, he ambled
off without attempting to touch the
judicial footwear. Shortly after the tramp
ambled back and seated himself beside tbe
shoes. There was an innocent expression
upon his lace ana ne was apparently
ignorant that the shoes were within
reach. Tne tramp remained in a
dreamy state for some time, until he satis
fled himself that the neighbors bad lost in.
terest in him and he was not boing watched,
Suddenly tho tramp and judicial shoes dis
appeared around the corner into Market
Alley and all trace of them were lost.
When 'Squire Shoemaker awoke this
morning he was perplexed. He hunted
through the bouse from cellar to garret, but
could not find his shoes. Fortunately he
was the possessor of more than one pair
and was not obliged to walk to court bare
footed this morning, "I'd just like to
know who got thoso shoos," the 'squire re
marked, to-day.
