THE MILLS OF
JUSTICE GRIND
Difficulties Which Get People Into
the Legal Controversies.
POLITICIANS AMONG THEM !
A Discussion Over the Approaching
Republican Delegate Elections Leads
Two Young Men Into Trouble.
Justice Shoemaker's court worked full
time last, night and for several hours the
Justice was kept busy issuing warrants
for end patching up differences between
litigants Among the most noteworthy
cases was that in Which n young man
Kdward Roberts appeared as complain
ant. According to Mr. Hoberts ho had an
argument with George Holvey nbout the
approaching Republican delega'e elec
tions. It Is not quite clear just how the
argument ran, but something was said
about some particular person carrying a
ward in his vest pocket and that caused
somebody to call somebody else a liar.
Messrs. Hoberts and Holvey disagree as
to who used the word liar. Their respec
tive versions on that point differ materi
ally, but litigants end witnesses agree
that Holvey's fist and Roberts' face
collided. The latter then sued. Holvey
waived a hearing this morning and en
tered bail.
Mary Ann Mnlconczes and Mrs. WhadU
law Sauchoeskl bake their bread in the
same oven. Yesterday Mary Ann found
the Sanchoeski woman In possession and
alleged that she was baking out of her
turn, whereupon Mary Ann threw the
other's half baked dough into the yard
and attempted to throw the owner after
It. In the wrestle that ensued Mrs. San
choeski was relieved of her clothing.
Suit was instituted before Justice Shoe
maker and Mary Ann gavo bail for post
ponement. When Peter Schoskl returned from
work yesterday afternoon he discovered
that the coat pocket in which his niont-y
whs secreted had been ripped open and re
Moved of twenty Russian roubles. His
suspicions fell upon a fellow boarder who
occupied the sleeping quarters by day.
Knowing the weakness of his countrymen
for drink, Peter inado a tour of the
suloons and in Joe Rynklewlcz's
resort learned tlmt William Ulczew
ski had exchanged two ten-rouble
notes for ten dollars in Amerl
can currencv and had snent the monev
freely. Ulczewskt was traced to. Goldln's
clothinc store, where he had been attired
In fashion's heiahth and later to Franev's
snloon, where he was playing pool, lie
was taken before Justice Shoemaker and
required to furnish ball for a further
hearing to night.
Joe WullHnte nnd John Demfluce
sklnDed Mrs. Demcuskie s boardinir hous
without paying the Mil, but forgot their
wormng ciotues, wnicn were bundled anil
readv to be carried awav. This was clue
enough for Constable Giblin, who took up
a position in the coal shanty to await
their return. At about 4 a. m. he was
aroused by stealthy footsteps within the
coal sluintv and a second after could dis
tinguish two forms moving toward the
clothing. Giblin wasn't slow in laying
hold of them. There was n short struggle,
but it was of no use and the pair were
locked up loi a nearingto-nlgut.
OVER AN EMBANKMENT.
Eight P. & K. Freight Cars Leave the
Track No Person Injured.
Special to kvehino Herald.
MAnAxov City, July 50AA disastrous
wreck occurred here on tho Philadelphia
& Reading Railroad shortly after four
o'clock this morning, but fortunately no
lives were lost and no person was Injured,
although there were a number of exceed
ingly narrow escapes. One of the cars In
the wreck was loaded with dynamite and
it Is considered a miracle that an explosion
did not occur.
The train that figured in the wreck was
made up of loaded and empty freight cars
drawn by engine No. Oil, In charge of
John Reicheldcrfer, conductor, and An
drew Frank, engineer. It was bound
from Tnmaqua to Newberry. As the train
passed through the western part of the
town the drawbead of the third cor from
the 1 engine pulled out. Unconscious of
what had happened the engineer kept up
his speed until he approached the electric
railway crossing, when he put on brakes.
At this point the forward section had
Sained about 500 feet on the rear section,
ut before the brakeman of the latter
part coul d communicate with the engineer
or the latter could realize what
had happened the rear section crashed
Into the cars attached to the engine. The
collision was a terrific one. Eight cars of
the rear part qf the train ran olt the
track and took a slanting course down the
twenty-foot embankment. All the cars
remained upright. Harry Sassaum, a
brakeman, was oil the top of the fourth
car and remained there until the car
stopped at the foot of the embankment,
when he climbed down uninjured and
received the congratulations ot the rest
of the crew.
Wreck crews from Mahanoy Plane nnd
Tamaqua were sent to the scene and by
half past nine they got the tracks suffic
iently cleared to allow the passage of
trains. It will take several days to clean
up the wreck.
Of the cars that went down tho em
bankment one was loaded with dynamite,
one with merchandise and the rest were
empty. It Is considered most extraordin
ary that tho dynamite did not explode.
It It had the effect would have been as
tounding. While the trnckB were being cleared a
transfer system was put In operation for
the passenger trains.

FROM THE
COUNTY SEAT.
Our Regular Correspondent Writes
of Political Matters.
MR. L0SCH IN THE LEAD !
It Is Said the Bald-Headed Statesman
Will be the Republican Standard
Bearer Other Political Notes.
Special llEHAt.n correspondence.
PoTTSVlLLi:. July 25 The political pot
Is beginning to boil, nnd ns a consequence
tne county seat is ueiug more irequentiy
visited by the various candidates seekiuc
honoisatthe hands of the dear people.
uunng tne past several days l nad ire-,
quent conversation with tho rural lenders
and from these private talks am in a posi
tion to feel the pulse of the people on the
obsorblng topioof the day, the complexion
of the two tickets to be nominated next
mouth. I must confess tbnt I was some
what surprised to learn of the great
change grndually coming nbout in refer
ence to tho Congresslounl nominee.
The sentiment seems to be turning
toward Hon. S. A. Ixisch, that astute,
bald-headed statesman and politician
who hails from tho pretty little villnue ot
Schuylkill Haven. This statement is not
based upon tne opinion-, oi that gentle
man's personal followers, but rather Is
the result of a change of opinion among
the rank and file of the pnrty. There is
no gainsaying the fact that Sammy has
done very quiet work, nnd is making a
most aggressive light for the nomination.
Besides he displays that confident tie
meauor which bodes no good for his
opponents, and greets his friends witli a
beaming countenunce. When Sammy
smiles, there is danger In the uirfortho-te
in his way.
With this state of affairs confronting
the other two candidates, itemises addi
tional danger to their chances, from the
fact that there is always to be found a
certain element in a political contest that
never make their preferences known until
they nresureof tho winner. This being
so, you mny expect to hear this element
Hopping to the support of' Loscli when
they liud that he is leading in the Con
gressional race.
Tho most powerful element of strength
in the Schuylkill Haven statesman's fuvor
is the county organization. He also has
the support nnd influence of nearly all
the great leaders in the state. It is plainly
seen, therefore, that to beat him the
pejnle must be marshalled in a solid bodv
ngalnst him,whlch, I consider, one ot the
impossibilities.
A mouth ago I would not have wngered
a cent on Mr, Losch's chances. You could
find very few politicians, outside of those
intimately associated wltnnimln politics,
who thought differently. To-dny, I am
free to confess, matters have assumed an
entirely diflerent shape, and were the
convention to be held to-morrow I firmly
believe that Losch would bo uoniinuted.
I simply glvoyonr readers the sentiment
of the people ns I find it to-day, and one
week hence the political horoscope may
change In fact, it would not surprise me
if such proves to bo the case. Thus it Is
not snio to "counr, your cnicKens uelore
tney nre iintcned."
Brumm, nor Shoener. I r that matter,
is by no means out ol the fleht. Tho ex
Congressman has been licked more than
once before tho battle, but turned up vic
torious after the dead and wounded had
been counted, when he entered the con
test he was looked upon ns a sure winner,
and added n great deal ot Interest tn the
campaign by his odd method ot advertis
lnghis candidacy. Tbeqiiotutiousnppear
iug in ,hls announcements are orlginul nnd
nave occasioned considerable comment.
There are a number of observant lenders
of the party who still hold to the opinion
that Brumm is abend and will remain
there. I must differ with these opinions.
having been in conversation recently with
a number of Republican leaders of the
county, w hero ) expected a prompt en
dorsement of Mr. Briinim's candidncv. I
found a few that were lukewarm wjitle
theotners werenon-committ'il. However.
Charlie may have a surprise in Ttdre for
ms two competitors, ior a moutn past
lie lias ueen a spumx m pontics, nnu wnen
you flud a politician keeping quiet, nud
saying very little, he generally has in
view soino new move on foot.
Hon. J. T. Shoener. the L'rancer politi
cian, was hero a day or two nco. and ex
pressed great confidence in the ultimate
result to his intimate friends. He has-
very little faith in the story that one of
tno cnnuwnics mis tuo state leaders witn
him.blioener is one of those quiet politi
cians nnd it is a difficult matter to inter
view him with nnv decree of success.
What he has accomplished in tbo wnv of
political preierment ne Keeps to unmeii.
xneoiireivniiy iikiii, nas oversiiauoweti
everything for the past month. Tho lines
nave ueen so tightly drawn between
Davis and bcott for this office that the
voters are gradually giving the candidates
for the other offices some consideration. I
believe tbnt by the end of next week the
great interest or tne contest will centre on
the Congressional nomination. AH three
ot tho Republican nsnlrnnts have in the
past been making a quiet canvass, but
wnn tne nenr approacn oi tne convention
you will witness the liveliest kind of a
contest between Bruinm, Loscb and
Shoener. Every prominent leader In the
party will be cajoled, besieged and made
to promise to stand un nnd be counted.
Every candidate for delegate to the county
convention will bo compelled to announce
his preference in tho Congressional light,
aim ue wno does not win lull uy tne way.

war horse of this district, has entered the
list of candidates seeking the nomination
for tbo Legislature. The announcement
has created quite a stir among the other
candidates. The doctor is a stalwart of
the most radical kind, nnd is not only an
able man but one of the strongest lu the
district.
The entrance of Dr. Quail into the
legislative race may interfere with Dr,
Coxe, of Schuylkill Hnven. Both oer
taluly cannot win, being from near the
same neighborhood. Nevertheless, both
nre good wen.
The nomination of Thomas Tosh, of
Shenandoah, for Jury Commissioner, is
conceded by all whom I have talked with.
The position is ouo of the most important

BIG DAY AT LANIGANS.
The Married Men Play Ball With tne

Eight hundred men, women, boys anE

for the single men nnd with a little better
support would have shut out tho Hus

made a record in placing the ball furthest
into the field this season, and aleo earned
a home run. Hurley caught well for the
Bntchelors and his throwing to bases wan

out the singles in four innings. Leary, of
the Batchelors, got two of the four hits

there were three Bntchelors on bases, nn
but one out, when Greener made a great
