Columbia II. & S. F. E. Co.. No. 1
Shenandoah, 1A., April 7, 1807.
Our attention has been directed to an
address by the trustees of the Rescue Hook
and Ladder Co. "No. 1, of Shenandoah,
published In the Issuo-of the Herald of
yesterday. It contains some reflections on
the action of the trustees of this company
which we think should not be permitted to
pass without correction, or at least oxplana
tion. The statement in question contains
only partial truth o remnant so to speak.
It Is true, as stated, that for several
years tho Itescue Hook and Ladder Company
ami Columbia II. & S. F. E. Co. havo been
sprinkling the streets of tho borough on n
cO'Opcrntlvo plan and dividing tho collections
equally. And so long as the collections were
divided (pi illy, the Columbia II. ft S. F. E.
Co. wrre satisfied with the arrangement and
it was adhered to faithfully. Last December
at a period of vory dusty aud windy weather
tho sprinklers of both companies went into
service, tho trustees of the Rescue 11. A I,.
Co. made the collections but no portion of
the same was paid or tendered to this com
pany nor has been to this date. We have 110
confidence in "a co-operative plan and divid
ing the collections equally" that does not co
operate a little bit in our direction. As to
the chargo that the Columbia sprinkler gave
Inferior services we wish to say that tho old
sprinkler discharged as much water and
covered as much territory as tbe largo 000
gallon sprinkler purchased only last summor
by tho Rescue Hook & Ladder Co.; before
that the inferior service was furnished by
that company. Wo havo 110 desire to enter
into a controversy on this subject with the
Rescue Hook & Ladder Co., or another. It
is not a matter of much importance to tlio
iiiblic as long as it receives good services at
reasonable rates, but as wo servo tho public
we thought tho above statement should bo
mado to correct any wrong impressions that
may havo been made in the statement of tho
Rescue Hook & Ladder Co., Ko, 1.
We havo purchased a new and superior
sprinkler which is now in active servlep and
wo aroablo to servo our patrons to their and
our satisfaction.
Witli gratitude for past favors wo remain,
Respectfully, '

A distressing Accident occurred at about
eight o'clock last evening on the Lehigh
Valley railroad, and near a place In tbe
eastern outskirts! of tbe borough known as
the "red bridge," Tbe victim was Leopold
Ileuecke, aged about 81 years, and a
jeweler. He fellbeneath a freight train and
thirty-four cars ptsed over his left arm and
leg. J
Ileneeke rentoq part of tho storeroom at
110 South Mala street in which A. P. Smith
conduct an oyster saloon. Tho place has
two Urge show windows. In one Ileneeke
made a display ot a small stock of second
hand watches and other articles in the
jewelry line. Ittneake was employed for
seme tlmo by Iktuikln, the jeweler, before
embarking In business for himself. At about
four o'clock yesterday afternoon Ileneeke
told Smith, the oSsterman, that he had con
eluded to give up Business and go to Ashland,
where a position qVaited him. Ileneeke was
not seen by his friends until his mangled form
was picked up on the railroad. There are
two stories of just how the accident occurred.
Ileneeke stated while receiving attendance
from the doctors that he jumped on tho freight
train at the Lehigh Valley station with the
intention of getting a free, ride to Now York,
ns he was without sufHcient money to my Ma
fare; that when the train was passing under
the red bridge one of several men who were
also stealing a ride on tho train shouted,
"Lookout for tho police 1" and be jumped
from tho train; as he did so his body struck ono
of the abutments of the bridge and throw
him olose to the ral on his back, so that his
arm and leg extended under the train. The
crew or the freight train assert that the un
fortunate young man attempted to Imard the
train at the red bridge." The train was going
at a fast speed at the time aud lknecke slip
ped and fell to the ground.
The train by which the victim was mangled
was the Empire freight No. 532, east bound.
When the accident was discovered word was
.sent back to tho Lehigh Valley station and
mi empty engine standing there was sent to
tho scene. Ileneeke was picked up and taken
to the station, where Drs. Q. M. Hamilton
nnd W, N. Stein made an examination and
found tho arm hopelessly cruahed from the
shoulder to elbow and the leg in a similar
stato from tho kuce too point Just above the
ankle. Tho doctors tomporarily dressed the
injuries and tho victim was then taken
to Ashland on the engine that had
brought him from tho bridge. At Ashland
nn ambulance was n waiting to take tiio un
fortunate to the Miners' hospital at Fouutain
Springs, whore he died at three o'clock this
morning after the arm had been amputated at
tho shoulder joint and the leg at tho middle
of JIio thigh. Dr. Iliddlo says death was due
to shock following tho amputations, but that
tho injuries themselves were of a fatal char
acter, Ileneeke was perfectly conscious while
being attended nt the Lehigh Vally depot
and spoko freely to Rev. John Guilder, pastor
of tho German Lutheran, church, who had
been summoned. Ileneeke said he was
about 2-1 years of age, had no relatives In
this country, and that his parents reside in
Berlin, Gormany. Ho asked Rev. Gruhler
that his parenti bo notified In ease he should
die and papers giving their address would be
found in his trunk, which he had left at
Smith's oyster saloon. Ho stated that he had
been unfortunate in business and had In
tended going to New York to look for work.
Conductor Ford, who had charge of the
engine upon which the victim was taken to
the station and Ashland, says Unit Ileneeke
toll hjiu lip had a sum of money concealed
)n his shoes. Smith, the oyster man, fays
there must bo a mistake about this and that
if Ilonecko had any money it did not amount
to more than $1.20. Mr. Iliddlo telephoned
iu answer to an inquiry from tho HnnALU
to-day that when licnecke's clothing was
searched at the hospital only $1.10 was found
lu tho plothlng apd no monoy was found in
tlio shoes.

All Other Candldnten Combined.
Chicago, April 7. The mayoralty
lection yesterday resulted In a decis
ive victory for the Democratic party.
Its candidate. Carter Harrison, having
more votes than all the other candi
dates combined. He defeated Bears by
from f.6,000 to 90,000 votes, in the pres
idential eleotlon McKlnley had 69,998
plurality over Bryan. Several wards
always strongly Republican were car
ried by Harrison.
The feature of the election was the
strength shown by Harlan. He ran
second to Harrison, and although an
Independent, with no organisation be
hind htm, he secured more votes than
the regular Republican candidate,
Judge Nathaniel Bears. One thing that
helped Harlan greatly was that Sears
was looked upon as being the nominee
of tha Republican machine, which has
grown unpopular In the ranks of the
local Republican party. Harlan secur
ed a heavy vote from men who would
have voted for the regular Republi
can nominee had It not been that they
wished to express their opinion of the
machine. He drew some votea from
the Democratic party, but not many.
The vote for Hesslng was largely
from the Germans, and came from both
parties. He ws the nominee of the
gold Democrats, although he went be
fore the people on a business man's
platform. The result was never much
In doubt, although Harlan, Sears and
Hesslng all claimed that they could not
be beaten. The campaign waa fought
for the most part on strictly local Is
sues, although the Democrats had a
silver plank In the platform.

MR. FOSTER FOR AMBASSADORS !
Th President Will Ask For Power to Seed
the Ex-Premier to Deal With the
Turks and Compel a Prompt
Settlement of All Bx
lstlnr Claims.
Washington, April 7. The adoption
of a vigorous policy to secure from
the Turkish government a settlement
of the claims preferred by the United
States on account ot the destruction
of American missionary property and
outrages to American missionaries
committed during the uprising against
the Armenians In the fall of 1896 Is
being considered by the new adminis
tration, and probably will be put Into
operation soon. President McKlnley's
program contemplates the sending to
Constantinople of Hon. John W. Poster,
former secretary of state, as a special
envoy, with the rank of ambassador,
to seoure from the sultan the pay
ment of the claims which have been
filed, and the speedy trial of those
American clttsens against whom
charges have been made by Turkish
officials.
The president probably will send to
congress a message recommending
that authority be given him to com
mission a special ambassador to Tur
key for this purpose, and while no
name will be proposed by the mes
sage Mr, Foster will be entrusted with
the mission in the event that congress
gives to the president the power which
hu desires. Mr. Foster lias already
been asked to undertake the mission,
and, although. he was at first reluctant
to accept It, he finally consented to do
so on certain oonditlons.

parties who have been consulted
President McKlnley and Secretary
Sherman discussed the unsatisfactory
policy ot the Turkish government
touching American claims soon after
the administration came Into power.
It was suggested first that the repre
sentative of the United States be raised
to the rank of ambasador, and Mr.
Foster be given the olllce, but this
proposition had several drawbacks, one
of them that a mission once advanced
to aftnbassadorinl ranks could not well
be reduced afterwards. Moreover, Mr,
Foster did not care to accept, such qn
office.
Under the proposed arrangement Mr.
Foster may be sent to TiU'Hey when the
resignation of Minister Terrlll Is ac
cepted, to serve there as envoy extra
ordinary, with the rank of ambassador.
until his work haB been performed,
and then rive place to the minister
who will be Appointed as Mr. Terrlll's
successor. No reflection upon the abil
ities of Minister Terrlll will be In
volved in this plan, for any representa
tive with the rank of minister works
under a heavy handicap at a capital
where all tho large powers and sev
eral of the smaller ones are represented
by ambassadors.
Several questions are at Issue be
tween the United States and Turkey
as a result ot the Armenian troubles.
Claims 'amounting, to $150,000 have been
presented to Minister Terrlll on ac
count of the damages dope to the Ku-
pnrales college at llarpoot, which Is
the property of the American board ot
foreign missions, to the Marash Theo
logical seminary and the residence of
an American mlslonary at Hasquey, a
suburb of Constantinople.
Remonstrances have been made on
account of the treatment of Ilev. G. P.
Knapp, an American missionary, who
was stationed at Bitlls and was ex
pelled from the Turkish empire on n
charge of inciting Armenians to re
bellion. Mr. Knapp has been unable
to secure admittance to Turkey or to
secure a trial, although It la claimed
that his banishment without trial Is In
Violation of treaty rights. The de
portation ot another missionary work
ing for the American board, Mr. Mc
Callum, was admitted at the time Mr.
Knapp was deported, but when Sir
Philip Currle, the BrltlBh ambassador,
learned that he was a citizen of Can
ada he made such vigorous representa
tions to the sublime porte that the
missionary was escorted back to his
post. Mr. Knapp Is now waiting In
Berlin for permission to return. Simi
lar charges to those agaliiBt him were
preferred against other missionaries,
who were not expelled, but they have
not been brought to trial.
The sultan has refused to recognise
Messrs. Bergholz and Hunter, who two
years ago were sent by the United
States as consuls to Erzroum and llar
poot. They reached their posts after
some trouble, but being unable to se
cure recognition or perform their duty
as consuls they withdrew, and a few
months afterward occurred the dis
turbances at Harpoot In which the
American college was looted and prop,
erty worth 1100,000 destroyed. Mr.
BergUoIg has since returned to Eri
roum. but has not been recognised. No
apology or explanation has been of
fered, nor any redress given for any
of these acts. President Cleveland and
Secretary Olney at one time considered
the advisability of blockading the port
of Smvrna tq secure redress, but
abandoned the idea, partly because the
revenues of the custom house were
mortgaged to European governments.
The new administration desires to se
cure the payment of the claims tor
damages referred to by Mr. Terrlll, to
secure trials for Mr. Knapp and other
Americans against whom charges have
been made, to gain permission for Mr.
Knapp to return to his post, and to
have the consuls who have been ac
credited to Turkish cities recognised.
