Contract Awarded l'or Uefuriilshlng The l'liice or Meeting. A medal meeting of the Borough Council yn held lnt night at which the following members were lu attendance: Messrs. Mo Quire, Bcelim, Schoppe, D. It. Jaines, Kerns, (table, Busier t, Jteete, Murphy, Strang tm, Hand and President T. J. James. The oiiiset of the meeting was to consider tlio elalm of WlUtam MeAdatn, of I'ottevilie, for $089.50 and act on tho report of the oom- tulttco that received bids for tho re-furnish- Int of the Council chamber. The former matter was disposed of after a review of the facta In possession of Council together with tho report of a committeo that viilled Potts vlllo last Saturday to investigate tho claim It appears that Mr. McAdam rnaVea it for labor furnished in conducting the second test of the public water works. This test, Council contends, was made by the con tractors and McAdam should look to them for his pay, but to avoid litigation and set at rest some matters over which there appeared to be a doubt an offer of $428 was made to Mr. Mc Adam. This was refused. The question arose last night as to whether It would not be cheaper to pay tho couple of hundred dollars extra claimed by McAdam than to go into court but tho majority of tho members expressed the sentiment that they would prefer to spend tho money in law, if it was to be spent at all, than to submit to what they bolleved Was au unjust claim. Accordingly a motion to with draw the oiler made to McAdam was uuaui mously carried. Tho claim having been tuns disposed or Council took up a consideration of tho Coun cil chamber improvements and upon a report made by tho Eoom and Stationery committeo on bids received awarded tho following con tracts : Fifteen flat top desks at $10 each to J. I'. Williams & Son ; seventeen ohairs at $1 each to O'Nolll Bros. ; painting, graining and papering room awarded to John L, Hassler for f 25 ; linoleum to J. 8. Cox at f 1.40 por yard.

Bon Ami YOufJG fHPH'S TERRIBLE FATE Imprisoned by a ftush Breast. of Coal In a AWFUL SITUATION IH A MINGS I Held OapUve By COM wd AU Avenues of Escape cut Off-no dim soon After Bllng EescdW-Thnel Driven Tor thl purpose. One of the saddest tyne accidents that have occurred In tho Gilbertou valley was one that happened in tee Gilbertou colliery yesterday afternoon, the tictJm bolng George Weeks, a popular young liptn 22 years of age aud son of Fred. Weeks, kte assistant inside foreman of tho colliery. Weeks was employed-. In breast No. 45, third lift, went Iluek MotJpUlu vein. Shortly after Ike noon hour yess&rday he started a battery and It gave way. to suddenly that the young man was glvebiio opportunity to escape. He was caught im the rush, knocked down and the coal piled About him by the tons, but left a pit In wftuh. the upper part of his body rested free ORthe coal. Shortly after tho rush occurred fellow workman lnlsecd Weeks and raIUfI what had hap pened. An alarm was giVen and a rescuing p irty at once formed. TJis work of reaching the victim was very delicate, as the men did not know whether or Dot the young man was dead, or alive, and great caro had to bo exercised to avoid a Second rush, which would have made death certain. Tho woTk was continued all night and up to a little after three o'clock tht morning, when Week's voice was heard. Carefully remov ing tho coal the rescuing Jtarty finally reached the young man. Thoy found that his legs were pinioned beneath a largo lump of coal and ho was unablo to move. It was 8:15 o'clock before tho coal wapsuffieiontly cleared uway to enable tho removal of the unfortun ate young man from the place. He was removed to the home of his father aud died tbero at nine o'clock. Dr. Samuels says death was duo to shock. When Weeks was taken from tho breast his lower limbs were crushed aud completely paralyzed. It is believed lie was internally injured. The delay in getting him out was due to the position in which he lay and the care required to avoid a second rush of coal in tho battery. No shots could bo flrcd to dislodge the coal that imprisoned the victim and only ouo man could Work at a tlnio. Tho coul had to ho carefully picked. Tho victim was a liephow of John W. Weeks, tho South Main street hotclkccpcr. A report received by tho Herald this af ternoon is based upon a statement nmdo by one of tho men who assisted in the rescue and appears to bo more correct than the ono received tins morning. It is to tho effect that tho rush of coal caught and hold Weeks in au upright position. Tho coal surrounded him up to tho hips. All openings into the bieastwera Bhut off by the rush. In order to reach the victim it was necessary to tun nel through n pillar of coal. While this was being done the workmen called frequently to the unfortunate young man and ho re sponded. When they reached him tho work of getting tho looso coal away was both tedious and dangerous, as a second rush might have not only been instantly fatal to Weeks, but also to the rescuing party. Tho funeral will take place on Saturday, leaving Gilbertou at 3:13 p. m. for Tamaqua, whero interment will bo mado in tho Odd Fellows' cemetery. The greatest bargains in the jewelry line at A.

FULL PROTECTION FOR AMERICANS Senator Allen Would Have War Vessels Sent to Cuban Waters for That Pur pose Senators Uoar and Pettlgrew Indulge In a War of Words. Vashlngrti n, Feb. 25. Attention was recalled tu the Cuban question In the sen-te yestei day by tho presentation of three resolutions on that subject. One of these came by unanimous vote fiom the committee on foreign rela tions, and called for the immediate and unconditional release of Julio San guilly, held at Havana. Mr. Morgan, who reported the resolution, will en deavor to secure action on It today. Another resolution by Mr. Allen, of Nebraska, calls on the president to ef fectively protect American citizens In Cuba, and for that purpose to send battlefthipB to Cuban waters. This resolution also comes up today. A third resolution by Mr. Hill, of New York, was agreed to, requesting the secretary of state for all correspond ence with Consul General Lee relative to Americans Imprisoned in Cuba. Late in the day Mr. Morrill, of Ver mont, withdrew the notice he had giv en of a speech today opposing the Cameron Cuban resolution, owing to the prospects that some of the belated appropriation bills will fall to pass. A sensational episode occurred late in the day during the consideration of the Indian bill. Several of the New ISngland senators had criticized var ious items. This aroused Mr. Pettl grew, of South Dakota, in charge of the bill, to some caustic recitals of barbarities practiced against Indians In Massachusetts in the early days, Mr. Hoar, of Massachusetts, defended his state, and amid impressive silence airalgncd Mr. Vettigrew, a New Eng lander by birth, for "befouling the nest in which he was born." Mr. Hoar added bitterness to his words by re ferring to Mr. Pettlgrew, not as the senator from South Dakota, but as "the person" who had made the re marks. Little progress was made on the In dian bill, and Mr. Allison warned the senate that the status of appropria tion bills w as . most dangerous. The status of the great appropriation bills Is as follows: Passed and signed by the president.the pension bill, the ur gent deficiency bill, the military acad emy bill and the legislative appropria tion bill; In the hands of the presi dent, the diplomatic and consular ap propriation bill; in conference1, the ar my bill and the agricultural bill; un der consideration in the senate, the Indian bill; on the senate calendar, the postofilce appropriation bill; before the senate committee on appropriations, the sundry civil bill, the fortification bill, the District of Columbia bill, the naval bill and the deficiency bill. The only excitement In the house yesterday was the reception to William J. Bryan. Most of the day was de voted to District of Columbia business.
