There will be no court-martial, as asked

It seems the Thirteenth regiment and
the fencibles were quartered In tne same
building and, because ot the noise made
by the latter, Lieutenant Colonel Streater
attempted to pass the sentinels to secure
quiet. He was halted by Captain Brazier,
when the two officers had somo words,
charges followed and n court was asked by
the captain. The charges have been in
the bands of Major General Snowden since

DISGRACEFUL- PROCEEDING?.
Constables nnd HmoHers 1'lgiiru tu Hutlcr
Township School An'alrs.
Ashland, Juno 13. Tho school affairs of
Butler township are in a most demoralized
state aud the warring factions havo' com
pletely covered themselves with disgrace
Saturday night there was a sequel to tho bit
ter struggle of weeks past in which rovolvcrs
were flourished and for a tiruo it looked ns if
blood would bo shed.
Tho trouble arose, from tho act of Thomas
Nolan in setting up n School Board of his
own and attempting to get control of tho
books of tho regular board, which consisted
of Torreuco Qinlcy, Oweu Coury, Thomas
Nolan, John Paul, George Miller and Georgo
Kesslor. Unlawful nets were alleged against
Nolan nnd he was deposed by tho board, tho
vacancy being filled by tho electiou of John
L'Vello.
Nolan Instituted mandamus proceedings to
havo himself rc-instatcd aud won a decision,
but tho School Board has appealed. Nolan
refused to recognizo tho old board after tho
decision and without waiting for a result on
appeal proceeded to organize a board of his
own with George Miller aud William Walter
shlde, of the cast cud, as associate members.
Mcantimo the old board met, wound up Its
buah.ibs and adjourned. Then Sweeney and
Cany, two of tho township auditors aud
friends of Nolan, fixed a meeting at his house
in Big Mliio Bun for auditing the school ac
counts and notified Secretary Kcssler to Wo
duco tho books. Kcssler did not obey Cud
tho auditors placed a capias lu tbo hands of
two constables lo require tho attendance of
the secretary aud a school teacher named
Maurcr, who helped to keep tho accounts
Tbo constables were unsuccessful and the
two men sought kept out of tho way by
advico of counsel.
Last Saturday ovening tho regular board
met at Locust Dalo and tho two constables
woro in attendance. Nolan, Miller and
Waltorshldo did not appear. Directors Gin?
loy, Conroy, L'Vello and Kesslcr proceeded
with business and meanwhile a third con
stable appeared. It is said tho Nolan members
were waiting for tbo constables to bring
Maurcr, Kesslcr and tho books to a meeting
of tho auditors at Big Miuo Bun.
When the constables attempted to take tho
men aud books they met with rcsistenco. The
ollicors drew their revolvers and tho directors
did likewise. Tho situation was a critical
one, but William Wilholm, Esq., tho regular
board's attorney, was equal to tho cmcrgeucy
aud succeeded in invoking peace; but tho
constables were finally ejected and the board
proceeded with its business, electing Bichard
Flynn treasurer.
Secretary Kesslor was arrested on Saturday
evening and escaped. On Sunday six con
stables surrounded and kept guard at his
house, but it was reported that tbo secretary
aud all tho township books were in Camden
N, J. This was controverted, however, by a
statement that the sherllf has been notified
that Kesslor, Maurer and tho books will bo
surrendered to him as soon as ho produces a
capias, and that all tho regular hoard asks is
protection.
Tis a consummation devoutly to bo wished
for, that every ono In the land knew tho real
merits of Dr. Coxe's Wild Cherry aud Seneka
for hoarseness and croup.

lUmusHimo, June 14. A meeting of
the stockholders of the Pennsylvania Steel
Company, which was recently pluced in
the bauds of receivers, will be held at the
office of the company Tuesday, August
16th, to net upon the proposed increase of
the bonded indebtedness of the company

The increase is proposed in order to pay
off the floating debt nnd permit the restor
ation of the property to the stockholders.
Major Luther 3. Bent, president of the

doubt but that the vote of the stockhold
era would be for the Increase, as a majority
had already declared themselves In Its
favor.
A Clrcuiman llndly Injured.
Hariiisuuro, June 14. Charles Louch
was kicked In the stomach while drivinu
one of Walter Main's new and untrained
circus horses in the parade yesterday nfter
noon. The accident occurred at Second
and State streets and may prove a serlou
one to Louch, who is now receiving atten
tion at the city hospital. It seems that the
wagon Is a trick one, the success ot which
depends largely on, the part played by the
horse. When the shafts backed up on the
hind legs of the horse he didn't take kindly
to It aud kicked, striking th unfortunate
driver In the stomach and breaking the
wagon, Walter Malu has been held for
cruelty to animals.

Tho regular meeting of Washington G nip,
No. 112, P. O. S. of A., hold last oveniiig iu
their handsome quarters, in Schmidt's hall,
was ono of much interest to tho members of
tbo order in gonoral. Threo new names were
added to tho roll of the camp, but it was not
this fact alono that caused such great interest
to bo taken iu this ouo particular meeting. It
was tho prcsonco of the dogroo team of Camp
3d I, of Ullberton, which was present by in
vitation to exemplify tho inipressivo initia
tory ceremony of the order.
Tho camp room was taxed to its utmost
capacity to accommodate tho largo attend
ance, quite a uumbor of members from other
camps being present. Tho new ritual or the
order, receutly adopted by the National
Camp, is u great improvement on the old, aud
tho manner in which tho members of the
team exemplified tho work last ovening pre
sented tho ritual Iu a very favorablo light.
Tho camp was ofilecrcd by tho following
members of tho Ollborton team: P. Pres.,
Harry A. Kantner, Pros., Isaac Purnell; V
Pres., James S. Uodgert; M. of- F., Stephen
Sergeant; Chap., Frank Parish; Sentinels,
Georgo Trega, Harry Lindcnmuth and
James Parfitt; Orator, George Kantner.
Each member of tho team performed his
respective part with credit Special mention
howover, should be made of tho work of
Stephen Sergeant as Master of Forms and
Isaac Purnell as the presiding olficor. Each
member has his iart committed to memory,
never having occasion to refer to tho ritual,
which makes the work very impressive to the
candidate.
After the adjournment of camp tho mem
bers of the team were escorted U tho Cofleo
House, where thoy enjoyed a spread as the
guests of Camp 112.
On Saturday evening tho Gilberton team
will visit Camp CO, of Frackvillo, aud com

Towards evening tho smell became un-.
'1rablo aud Mr. Vcalo was unable to ro- '
main iu tho basement Mr. Franey ox- ' '
amined his storo carefully and could find no
leak. At about six o'clock Mr. Vealo said ho
would oxamluo tbo basement again. He had
hardly disappeared dowu tho steps when a
loud report of an explosion was heard. Mr.
Franey hurried down into tho basement and
saw Mr. Vealo running towards the rear of
the saloon with his hands over his face.
When ho got just inside of tho doorway, at
tho foot of tho stone steps, Mr. Franey
struck a match and as ho did so there was
another explosion and a great volume of
smoke arose from beneath tho bottom of tho
steps. Mr. Franey then sprintod to tho roar
of tho saloou.
The causo of tho troublo was then learned.
A largo sower pipe runs into tho building
under tho stono steps. In somo unaccount
able manuer the gas from a leaking pipe in the
street got Into the sewer pipe and during tho
day qulto a body accumulated. Wheu Mr.
Veale went down to make his investigation
he struck a match at tho bottom of the steps
and ignited tho gas which was escaping fiom
under tho last step into the saloon. Tho next
instant the gas in the sewer pipe ignited and
exploded. Mr. Vealo was facing tho steps at
the timo and received the force. His faco
was pretty severely scorched and part of his
hair and whiskers woro burned, but fortu
nately they were not of a dangerous character.
Mr. Veale was able to walk to his home, but
his place of business was closed for the night.
Mr. i raney was more fortunate. His hair
was but slightly singed and he was disturbed
more by the shock thau anything else.
Tho matter has precipitated general dis
cussion aud may bo brought to the attention
of the Borough Council to-morrow night.
Leaks in the gas pipes are becoming so
numerous the question will no doubt be
brought up in some shape at tho noxt meeting.
