Cut Off A Krp.lrtm.n Succumb, tn
Injuries.
It has often been remarked that acci
dents follow each other In rapid succession
and when one Is reported others tuny be
looked for until a series of three or four
14 completed. Reference to the Herald
columns of to-day will show that the
quota Is more than filled. In addition to
two fatal and two minor mine accidents,
is a distressing one on the railroad which
in all probability will result fatally.
Shortly before noon to-day Harry, the
ten-year-old son of James II. Morgan, of
South Jnrdln street, met with an accident
which may cost him his life. He walked
to the Lehich Volley Kallroad at the foot
of White street and attempted to jump
on an east-bound coal train, but slipped
and his feet were crushed beneath the
wheels. The right foot wn cut ofT nt the
ankle and was only held to the leg by a
tough sinew. The left foot and ankle
were so badly crushed that amputation
was required.
The unfortunate boy was taken to tho
home or his distracted parents and nfter
beimr nut under tho iniliience of ether re
mained under tho surgeou's knife for
about two hours, Drs. Hamilton and
Lungton performing the operation. It is
feared the boy will not recover from the
shock attending the double amputation
Thomus Carlin. a miner 3. venrs of aire
and residing near Gllberton, this morning
sustained injuries at tlic Draper colliery
which are of a danizerous character.
Carlin was engaged in timbering a

Schuylkill Electric Railway
Changes Hands.
A SYNDICATE CONTROLS I
ilulm F, I'lnney Ilrtngn About the Deal
With the Alii of l'lilladelphla Capital
nnd U Matte General Munnger of the
Line Under tho Change.
Considerable surprise was occasioned
throughout the county to-dny by the
announcement that the Schuylkill Elec
tric Railway Company, of Pottsvllle, had
changed hands nnd thnt the power nt the
wheel which caused the chango wns John
F. Finney, of Shennndoah.
By the deal the controlling Interest of
the rond is transferred to a Bvndlcato and
the mnnngement Is entirely changed. Tho
syndicnte, which has secured control of
tue road, is beaded by Uharles JI. Harrett,
president of the Car Equipment Company,
of Philadelphia, and William A. Barrett,
Jr., formerly trensurerof thnt company.
John F. Finney, who wns chiefly Instru
mental in bringing nbonf the deal, be
comes general mnnnger ot the road.
rue uonded lndeutednesoltneold com
pany was ?dj,(KKi and It Is understood thnt
the price paid by the syndicnte is about'!
tiint iigure.
Secretary Jesse Xewlln nnd Robert A.
Allison resigned from the Board of Direc
tors nnd the Barretts were elected to fill
the vacancies, although Mr. Newlln is re
tained ns secretary. John F. Zerhoy will
also retain his position under the com
pany for the present. J. B. Stuart, of
Philadelphia, hns been appointed elec
trician and general superintendent nnd
superintendent Whilliden retains his old
place. All the minor employes of thecom
pany will be retained.
General Manager Finney said to-day in
conversation with n Hkiiald reporter
that the Schuylkill Electric Railway
Company should be one of the best nav-
ing electric lines in the county and he
believed It could be brought up to the
innrK wun some reiorms in tne manage
ment. These reforms will be tnken in
hand nt once. In the llrst place sixteen
tickets will be Issued for lifty cents, good
between the hours of 5:30 nnd 7:30 n. m
and 5 nnd 0;30 p. m. This prnctlcnlly 1? a
return to the old system which wns
abolished over two years ago and which
begot a kind of boycott from the classes
directly aitected by tne change. Another
Important change will be reduced fnres
to Tumbling Run. The regulnr fare of
five cents will take you to Tumbling Run
in through cars from any point ou the
line after July 1.
Many other Important reforms will be
iiiBiuuied to oenent the employes ns well
as the patrons of the line. The one man
system will be abolished nnd two men
will constitute n crew thus civiniremnlov-
ment to n greater number of men, and it
is Intimated thnt the uiggnrdly wage
mein oi ti.ia per day win oe abolished.
The Schuylkill Electric Railway Com-
Enny has been in existence over flvo years
ut has never been much "f n success,
owinc to a lack of nronei inntrempnt'
Supposed reforms based upon methods of
false economy has been Its grentest draw-
General Manager Finney wns warmly
congratulated by his friends here to-day
and he is now looked upon as a Napoleon
in Schuylkill's railway nnd tlnannial
circles. The Pottsvllle deal 1b not the
llrst which the little Mnjor has success
fully handled, however, He was the
prime mover among the enterprising men
who tecured the charters fortheMahanoy
City, Shenandoah, Girardvllle and Ash
land Electric Railway Company (now
Schuylkill Traction Company) and the
Lakeside Electric Railway Company, and
his appointment to the general manage
ment of the Pottsvlllo railway is an
assurance thnt the enterprise will hoon
become popular with the tiaveling public
and a paying investment for stockholders.
Mr. Fiuney will retain his residence In
Shenandoah.

DR. SZLTJPA8' CASE.
The Libel Suit Still mi Trial ltefore J ml Re
Weld niHn.
Upeclnl to nvenlug HernM,
Pottsvillk, June 2S. The criminal
libel suit of Charles Radzewicz and others
against Dr. John Szlupas nnd others Is
still on trial before Judge Weldmnn and
may take up the balance of the week. Al.
though the trinl hns been in progress
since Tuesday morning last when court
opened this morning there were twenty
witnesses awaiting cxnmlnatlou.
, As the case progresses the belief be!
comes stronger thnt the doctor and his co
defendants will be acquitted. One thing
Is certain, the developments in the case
are winning popular Rentlment over to
the side of the defendants.
Dr. Szlupas was called as n witness In
his own behnlf yesterdny afternoon ami
the counsel of the Commouwealtn i -jected
on the ground that the doctor v. s
mi minrcbist, a nihilist nnd nn mil le.
Several nuthorlties were cited to su--tnln
the objection.
A spirited exchnnge between Hon. C
N. Bruium, the counsel for the defend
ants, nnd Mr. Whltehouse, representing
the Commonwenlth, but It wns cut oft by
Judge Weidman deciding that the witness
could be questioned ns to his beliefs
before being put under oath. Dr. Szlupas
said he believed In the God of Israel and
that he had renounced the Catholic faith
and become a Presbyterian.
Judge Weidman then directed thnt the
witness be sworn.
Mrs. Szlupas was put on tho witness
stand this morning as a witness for tho
defense and her examination extended
into the afternoon session. During the
cross-examination tilts between Messrs.
Hrumm nnd Whltehouse were frequent
and In one of them the lawyers bec ame so
personal it was feared there would bo nn
open rupture,
RIZZUTO GUILTY.
Tho Italian Stmt Hang for iln- "-ilvci
llrodk Crime.
Antonio Itlzzuto was yesterday con
victed of murder in the llrst degree before
Judge Savage nt the Pottlllp cour .
Rizzuto was charged with fatally stabbing
a countryman at Silver Brook. The ar
oused man took the witness stand in his
own behalf yesterday afternoon and told
a remarkable story. He charged Carmale
Torcha, one of the eye witnesses to the
crime, with hnving committed the mur
der, and when questioned ns to how the
large bladed knife found upon his person
when capturetl was smeared with blood,
said thnt when he wns caught his nose
wns bleeding nnd oneof his cuptors opened
the knife nnd held it under his nose to,
cntch some of the blood.
County Solicitor Ulrich nppeared for
the prisoner and made nn eloquent plea
in his behnlf, but the jury rendered n
verdict ngalnst the accused mnn. Tvo
ballots were tnken. On the flrsttenstoou
for conviction nnd two did not vote. On
the second the vote wn unanimous for
conviction of murder In the first degree.
A motion for an arrest of judgment

In connection with the Senntorship in
this district is enterely unwarranted
secondly, that he has no intention of n--tlriug
from the contest for the Democratic
nomination for Sheriff. On the contrary,
he thinks his chances for success are better
now than at any time since he first an
nounced himself, nnd he will remain a
