There were about fifty delegates pusent, with District l'rcsi.Icnt John Fahoy In the chair. The morning session was taken up with routine work. The afternoon session was an important one. A pledge was sent to each Legislative candidate, in which the anti-company -tore bill introduced by Hon. Joseph Wyatt, who is a candidate for re-election, was endorsed, as was also linn. Uias Davis' semi-monthly pay law. The candidates are asked to favor all mining legislation endorsed by the 1'. Jt. W. The convention strongly condemned the company store as a great and burdensome evil, and calls upon business men to Join witli them In opposition to the evil. A resolution was adopted favoring the election of ono inspector to each ten collieries, and when tho term of the piesent inspector esplros that he be elected by the people iu the district. Tho following resolutions were adopted : WllKUKAs. The recent terrible calamity that occurred at the Twin Shaft colliery, ritt.lon, where fW lives were saeridced through the care less negligence and stupidity of olllcials who receive princely notaries from the state to see that the mine laws now upon our statute hook (that have been enacted to preserve life ami limb) are properly enforced; therefore, be it Unsolved, That M e the delegates iu conven tion a-scmhlcd do hcnttlly deplore the nnnee cvnary hiss of life In and around the anthrncite coal region of Pennsylvania, believing and knowing as we do that If the mine In-poctors were more diligent in compelling the corpora tions and mine owners In enforcing the mine laws it would lessen fatal and nou-fntnl accidents to a minimum as compared with the present vv hole-ale slaughter. Resolved, That evidence Is In abundance at every colliery In the nntliracito region known to almost every employe that the mine inpt c tors, superintendents and mine bosses perv ert the intent and obstruct the enforcement of the mine law s to the gnat ditrliucnt of the miners and laborers, Itc-olvcd, That we appeal to all miners ami laborers of the anthracite region to Join vv 1 1 1 1 us In extending this organisation Into localities where no slab bodies now exist, believing that as we do unite they can belter secure and more roadllv enforce nil observance of the laws Intended for their protection. The piesent Milium' llxainining Law was strongly condemned, claiming it to be only a fane. Knmnuel Jenkyn, candidate for i!e cordcr and cx-Treasurer of tho I'. M V., was heartily endorted. A committee of one from each legislative district was appointed to oMain a pledge from candidates to support legislation favorable to mine workers, and that a committee of fivo be also appointed to watch legislation at Harrisburg. Tho bill introduced by Hon. Klias D.tvis, when a member of tho Legislature, known as the Semi-Monthly l'ay law, was commended as .1 groat benefit.

Ho wai engaged on the topmost point of tho steeple and lost his balance and fell a distance of fifty feet headlong to tho ground. During the fall he retained presence of mind, and kept his arms outstretched, which saved him from instant death. His arms struck first, breaking the bones in both arms. One log was alsu broken nnd his face was a perfect jelly, lie was removed to his home, nnd this morning takcu to tho .Miners' hospital. There is llttlo hope for his recovery, as ho is in jured Internally. Tho Itoroiigh Council has accepted the measurement of tho paving ou North Main street, and tho contractors were paid in full.

Two of tho masked burglars who pounced upon nnd bound Thomas O'Connell, the watchman at tho Cambridge colliery, on tho morning of tho 10th Inst., and then blew open tho safe In the colliery olllce, but failed to get anything of value, are In custody. The men under arrest are John Wilson nnd (ins danger, two notorious crooks who hail Irom Mt. (fennel nnd aro well known to the police of many parts of the state Iloth were released from the Sunhury jail but a few days previous to the Cambridge robbery. Wilson was In jail to await trial with Mike Kline, of tills place, and two cithers for attacking a watchman at tho Alaska collleiy. near ML Cannot, but, like Kline, was acquitted upon trial. Tho arrests vvoro kept seeict at tho time they wore made so as to not give the alarm to the two masked burglars who aro still at large, but as tho men under arrest nro known to lie tho ringleaders, publication of tho facts can work no injustice. Wilson was tho first man arrested. Ho was caught at ltivorside, opposite Danville, by C. it I. I'ollceman Kleindentz, of Mahanoy City; Watkins, of Jit. C'armel, and Lippict, of Shamokin. Tho arrest was made on Wednes day afternoon. Wilson spent tho night In the lockup at Mahanoy City and on Thursday afternoon was brought tp town and taken bc foro Justico Cnrdln, who committed him to the l'ottsvillo jail, In default of Jl.POO, for further hearing. Ganger was arrested on Thursday night, in Slia mokln, by. C. & I. Policeman Lippict and Constable Swift, of that plucc. Ho was brought to town yesterday by Llppiett and C. & I. I'ollceman Connors. After being arraigned beforo Justico Cardln ho was com mitted to tho l'ottsvillo jail In default of $1,000 hail for further hearing. Iloth men will bo given 11 hearing beforo Justice Cardln on Monday morning, at 11 o'clock, when the witnesses tho C. & I.polico havokept in tho dark will bo produced. Hoth Wilson and Ganger protest their innocenco nnd say that prior to their arrest they had not been in Shenandoah for over n year. This tho police can easily disprovo and tho evidence against tho men is very strong. It is not likely that burglars will bother with coal company properties iu tho region for some time again. This case has been worked up to set an example, as thero is no stolen property to recover. Immediately after the robbery tho country was Hooded with telegrams and tho same day no less than ten warrants wcro distributed among tho C. & I. police in various parts of tho region. Tho evidence upon which tho pollco worked and its -ourco will probably develop at the hear ing 011 Monday. Last night, upon complaint of Councilman j I). H. James, who is insido foreman at tho ; l ambrulgc colliery, Ulnet ol 1'ollce Tosh and Policemen Lee and Stanton arrested 1 tlneo tramps found lounging at the lima 1 kiln. They aro held in tho lockup to await identification, Mr. James having a suspicion that tho men may havo been part of tho masked quartette. Up to this afternoon their identification had not been made.
