Important Action by the Leading Irish
Society In America.
ANCIENT ORDER OF HIBERNIANS I
Resolutions AVIilfli 1'iimr ICctolullouury
Action ltecvlvo tlio Hearty Indorsement
of National Olllcers of an Irlsli
Aiucrleaii Society.
New YoitK, Aug. 2. The national of
ficers and directors of the Ancient Order
of Hibernians' meeting, at the Conti
nental hotel, yesterday passed resolutions
which aro thought to be deeply signifi
cant of th future policy of the organiza
tion in the Unltod States upon tho ques
tion of tho method for forwarding the
cause of IrUh tndepondenco.
The resolutions aro said by well In
formed Irishmen to mean that the A. O.
II. indorsoB tho Irish revolutionary move
ment which Beoks Irish independence by
force of arms, although tho text does not
convey that statoment in direct language.
The importance of the action taken lies
In tho fact that It Is done in the name of
600,000 men who form the society.
The main resolution reads:
"Resolved, that as representatives of the
largest and strongost IrUh-American or
ganization on the contlnont, overy mem
ber of which loves tho liberty of his native
or adopted country, we pledge the faith
and fealty of this order to any policy that
they think is operative looking to a nat
ural, regular and aggressive effort for
Irish national Independence."
Judge Wilhere, of 1'hiladelphia, said:
"Our resolutions practically indorse tho
now movement. It is of course in em
bryo, and we cannot doslgnato it, but
when after the convention it becomes an
actual fact, and is established as a move
ment to win tho absoluto independence of
Ireland, then wo shall be free to speak of
it. Wo will help to make it such a movo
ment, and wo havo no fear of the future."
Major Kdwnrd Sweeny, of Cincinnati,
said: "I am, and so aro tho other ofllcors
and dlroctors, In favor of tho new move
ment so long ns wo seo it is a movement
In the Tight direction. We are tired 'of
humbug, and mow we must Jiavo active
work."
M. J. Slnttery, tho national secrotary,
said: "Those resolutions are distinctly In
favor of tho new movement as a revolu
tionary movomont, not otherwise. I do
not bellovo iu begging favors of England.
You can get nothing out of England savo
by one way.
T. J. Dumlon, of Columbus, O., national
treasurer, said: "We take Issuo now with
England, and for tho last timo, I hopo.
Ireland must bo freo, no mottor how wo
accomplish It. Good men and true will
bring England to her knees."
William Lyman, treasurer of tho lato
National ZiCnguo, and one of tho foremost
advocatos-of the now movement, said: "I
am perfectly satisfied wltii the resolutions
passed by the ofllcors of tho A. O.H. The
now movement is distinctly a revolution
ary movement, and wo hevo no doubt of
having &o best men in .the country In it.
Our platform will be given to the world
at our'Convcntlon, which I think may bo
held in 'Chicago at tho oud of August.

IT WAS A HOAX.
No Truth lu the AVni. IVlm Story of an
Outrage.
A sensation was caused yesterday by a re
port that a fifteen-year-old girl had been
attacked and outraged at Win. Penn. on
Wednesday night. The Win. Penn colliery
olllcials took an interest in the case and C. &
I. Policeman liensinger was detailed to niako
an investigation, which he did, and It now
appears that the story of the outrage was a
hoax concocted by a girl to escape punishment
from her parents for having remained from
her homo until late in tho night.

After considerable delay, due to the non
arrival of a sufficient number of members to
make a quorum, a meeting of the Borough
Council was held last night and prolonged
until after eleven o'clock. The members in
attendance were Messrs. Kane, O'Brien,
Kerns, D. It. James, Dougherty, Iteese, Hand,
McElheimy, Boehm and Gable, the latter
acting as chairman in the absence of Presi
dent McGuire, who was unable to attend. As
usual, water was the main topic of discussion
during the evening, and it came up in various
shapes.
Mr. Kane, of the roads and highways com
mittee, stated that the work of cutting down
Pear alley to grade had been commenced and
would require considerable labor. Ho also
stated that the bridge at the eastern limits of
the borough had been repaired and East
Lloyd street was receiving attention. The
plank culvert on Coal street will bo removed
and replaced by one of better material.
When the fire apparatus committee reported
there was a discussion as to what should be
done witli the old hose on hand, and Mr.
Gable suggested that it would be a good idea
for the people of Turkey Run to form a firo
company. Tlio borough could give them the
old hoso for equipment. The hose is not
suitable for uso in town, but would suit at
Turkey Itun.
Mr. Kerns stated that he hail been informed
it was the intention of the people at Turkey
Itun to form a fire company.
Mr. Gablo said he would be glad to seo the
idea carried out, but lie would draw a lino on
any application for a $500 appropriation.
Mr. Kane reported that keys to the Council
Chamber hud been purchased for use by the
members and ho distributed them.
A report was made on tho suit instituted
against the borough at Sheptou by Surveyor
Staufi'er, who claims $75 for services. The
case comes up ou the 5th Inst. It is slid the
borough holds u receipt in full from the claim
ant and that the demand is made to satisfy a
claim by a Mr. Boyer, of Sunhury, with
whom Staull'er contracted for work.

Tho water works then eamq up for ills- on Wednesday in her 70th year. She is
cussion and Chairman Gable insisted that survived by the following children : Mrs.
each member in attendance give his opinion 'John McGinness and Miss Ella, a school
of the last test made at the pumping station. teacher, of Fraekville; James, Philadelphia ;
.nr. .Metllienny said ho thought the test was
111 favor of tho pump connected with the
condenser. Mr. Kane did not think the test
was a satisfactory one, or tliut one could bo
mado iu less than a week. Mr. D. It. James
said ho is iu favor of tho condensers if the
water pumped back by them does not pollutli
tho water iii the reservoir and he did not
think tho condensers should bo kept in opera
tion while there is a scarcity of water. Mr.
Kerns said he did not think a satisfactory
test could bo made in less than three days.
Mr. Hand was inclined to believe that the
water would be more pure without the con
densers, and Mr. Dougherty thought they
were fuel savers. Mr. Iteese thought the
condensers were superior generally to the
system of exhausting into the atmosphere.
Mr. Gable was tho last one to give his views
and said ho was still iu favor of dispensing
with tho condensers. Ho said there was 0110
point most of tlio people who witnessed the
test failed to observe and that was the con
ditions of the two pumps. Tho one exhaust
ing into the atmosphere was judged whilo
pumping water over the mountain, whilo
tho othor only pumped wator hick into the
reservoir when in operation, having been cut
oft' from the mountain pipe lines.
Finally Mr. D. It. James moved that when
it becomes necessary to uso both pumps tlio
condenser -now cut off from 0110 of them be
connected again.
Messrs. Gable and 1). It. James stated that
Gcrber & Seaman wanted borough water to
feed tlio boilers at the Furnace colliery. Mr.
Gcrber is a taxpayer of the town and gives
employment to 75 of its men and boys. Three
boilers are used at tho colliery, Mr. Gerber
proposes laying 700 feet of T inch pipe to
make the connection, it was decided that a
connection be allowed with tho proviso that
the borough shall havo the right to cut on"
tho supply when necessary iu a dry season,
and tho water committee is to fix the rate of
water rent.
It was also decided that the pipe lino at
Turkey Itun be extended westward to supply
families beyond the reach of the present line
and that extensions bo mado on South Chest
