Jones, of Mahanoy City, was up before Judge
lleehtel tlila morning;, in pursuance of his
nnnotincomeut that he would receive briefs
and listen to arguments to-day.
John F. Whalen, Esq., objected to the
court taking action In the matter, claiming
thnt the Governor had Issued the commissions
for five years and he was the proper official
to whom application should be mad to have
ths cemmfeelons declared null and void.
A. W. Schalck. Esq., opposed the stand
taken by Mr. Whalen nnd said that as the
lower court bad declared that the incumbent
had been illegally elected, and that deci
sion had been affirmed by the Supreme
Court, there should be no delay in the lower
court enforcing the decree. When this is
done, he said, there will be a vacanay, and
then the Governor will proceed to (111 it,

THE PERPETRATORS ARE UNKNOWN
The Young Man Cfawkd Partly From the
Track and MYtd ilia Ufa, But LMt
One of Ull Feet-Several
Fruitless Attests Made.
One of the most atrocious crimes In the
borough's history WM perpetrated on Satur
day evening, John Han, a young man of ex
cellent reputation fceliHi the victim. He was
mudbagged, gagged, fAied, crippled for life
and escaped death by ft Harrow margin. The
evldeuee is clear that the assailants placed
the unconscious brut .of their victim on a
railroad traok with tilt hope that It would
bo mangled by trains fttifl the death would be
a mystery that would shield them. A lament
able feature of tho 0AS is that thus far all
efforts of the police tf trace the guilty parlies
have failed. Several arrests on suspicion
havo been mado without satisfactory result.
Tho victim tells the ftory of the crime.
He says that at about ltlne o'clock Saturday
night he left the JflWlug of the Young
Wonien's Christian TalBiporanco Union In
tho Melletbnlldlng, at the corner of Centre
street and Market alley, to go home. Ho
lives with his parents at 188 South White
street and entrance to the residence from tlio
rear can be obtained from Plum alley.
When Hall was about halfivay between Oak
aud Cherry streets, he says, ashort man with
reddish moustache and heavy beard stopped
him asked for ten cents. Hall pulled out
his pockotbook to glvo the mau tho money.
At the same instant somebody cried "Soak
him I" and Hall was strtu'k on the back of
tho head. Hall remembers nothing un
til ho found himself lying on the west
bound track of tho Lehigh Valley railroad,
at (he foot of tho Plum, aljey embankment.
As consciousness returned Hall found that ho
was gagged. His own potket handkerchief
had been tied firmly over his mouth. While
he was trying to untie th gag he realised
that he was lying on a railroad track. He
says ho attempted to arise, but wub too weak
and appeared to bo llziy. Each titno he
made an effort ho fell back, He then heard
the whistle of a locomotive and realized that
his life depended upou his gcttiug
from the traak. After repeated efforts
he managed to toll front tie ttftck uto the
ditch. He thought himself fclear of the track,
hut his left foot was still uitou tho west rail
and the right foot close to the rail. A mo
ment tator tho train scheduled to leave town
for Shamokiu at 0 p. m. thundered along nnd
cut ofl' tho foot that rotted on the mil. The
member was severed at about a quarter of an
Inch above the ankle. Tho right foot escaped
the same fate, but was badly gashed in two
places just below tho Instep
Few can fully realize tlifclerriMe
lenco of the unfortunate young mau.
expert
As tho
(rain pawed over his fpot ho must have
falutcd, for ho can give no mrount of what
happened after. Mrs. Carol I no Eherhard,
who resides In a houso located on tho eastern
embankment of the railroad aud nearly op
posite the scene of tho Clime, heard Hall's
groans nt about 10 o'clock and called tho at
tention of her son-in-law, Joseph Moriin, tu
them. The latter procured a lantern and
went down to the railroad with his brothei-lu-law,
William Eherhard and discovered
Hall in the condition already stated. Others
were attracted to the scene In tho meantime
aud Hall was carried to his home, which Is
located about 150 feet from tho plaeo where
the attack was made. Drs. G. M. Hamilton
aud J. S. Callcn were summoned and d.essed
the victim's mangled limbs. No dangerous
results aro nutlcipated.
An examination of the sccuo of the crime
shows Hall could not have licen thrown from
the embankment, so that ho would fall upon
the railroad track. Tho embankment is a
high ono nnd had the victim been thrown
there would certainly havo been marks upon
his head, limbs or body to show the effects of
tho drop. It was Impossible for Hall to roll
down tho embankment and upon the track, as
at tho bottom there is a very wide and deep
ditch, in which his body would have lodged.
Tho rails of the track are at least two feet
higher than tho bottom of tho ditch. An
examination of the embankment failed to
reveal any signs of a struggle, or a dragging,
but wasthlcklystuddedwithfootpriuts. All
vho havo oxamlned the placo aro convinced
that tho victim was carried down the em
bankment and placed upon the track.
Hall Is of the oplniou from the footsteps he
heard jiut before ho was struck that two
men attacked him from behind while ho was
about to hand tho man in front of him the
mouey asked for. He was robbed of his gold
watch and chain and his pockctbook. Ho
does not remember how much money ho had.
The police spent several hours after thsy
heard of the case in trying to trace the guilty.
parties and gathered In nine tough looking
characters on suspicion. Two were found In
a hut located in the swamp near Yatesvllle
and four woro picked up along the Lehigh
Vulley railroad. The suspects were held in
custody until this morning, when they were
taken to tho victim's bedside. - Hall had
stated that, although tho placo where
the attack was mado was very dark,
he could identify the man who
asked him for money. The men taken
before Hall were Matt. Delaney and William
Tallet, of town, James Woods, James Dough
erty and William Bradley, of Mt, Osrmel,
Joe Piokalosky, alias Smith, of Wm. Peun,
Dauiol Yueomas, Anthony Lutiu aud John
Kockalockl, of town. Hall railed to identify
auy of them. The last named three were
discharged but the others were arraigned lie-
fore Justice Cardiu, cliarged by Chief of
Police Tosh with drunkenness and nuisance,
aud liavlur uo visible means of support,
They won cotanilttod to Jail lu default of
f 100 bail, each. Nothing was found on the
persons of any of the suspects to connect
them with the crime. A great crowd followed
the police when they were tsking the bus
pects to Hall's house and as the crowd
waited outside the residence while Hall was
trying to make the ideutiSeation sows very
unpleasant threats wore made. It is be'
Heved that liad Hall identified auy of the
suspects the police would have had dllllciilty
In getting the prisoner safely back to the
lockup. The case has aroused great public
ludlguatlou. Hall is )M years of age. He is
a model young mau and a faithful member of
the Primitive Methodist church. He ha
ueverbeen known to indulge in intoxicants,
so that his misfortune cannot be attributed to
auy misstep on his part in that direction.

THE GREEKS
OVERWHELMED
An find to the War With Turkey Ex
reeled This Week.
FOREIGN INTERVENTION LIKELY
The Powers Will Doubtless Effect a tettlo-
mailt of the Dispute Whlsh Will Hot
Be Humiliating to the Govern
ment of Greece,
London, April 26. What seoms likely
to be the last week of tha war WM
entered upon yesterday. It la difficult
from the tansrls of conflicting tele
grama to understand tlie exact posi
tion of affairs. Followlne the 'Greek
defeat at Larlssa, which Is now oc
cupied by tjie Turks, London opinion
today Is almost unanimous that the
end Is In sight, and this view Is prob
ably shared by the powers, aa they are
already moving to intervene.
Unable to withstand the attaoks of
the Turkleh army on Larlssa, the
a reeks spiked their guns and retreated
In good order to the foot of the Mavrp
vunl mountains, which 'bounds the
plains of Larlssa ofi the south. Here
they have Volo as a base of supplies,
mrl communication by railroad with
the town.
It Is believed that Intervention by
the powers will nrst take the form of a
suggestion of armistice, to which the
combatants would no doubt agree.
Since Saturday afternoon- the British
foreign olllee 1ms been In close com
munication with the other members
of the European concert. Great Britain
suggesting that the time has now ar
rived for them to act. The French,
German and Italian governments havo
already responded, offering to agree,
though the German government addn
as a condition that If- wU be necessary
first to exact a pledge from Greece to'
obey the mandate of Europe when4hls
mandate Is again given,
The British foreign office believes
that Greece will give this pledge, as
the disasters which have overtaken
her have demonstrated that Turkey
still possesses a formidable fighting
maohjne, a fact which must have a
sobering effect upon the popular de
mand for war nt Athens, and which
will permit he Greek nation to climb
down without disgrace after a superb
vindication of the personal courage of
the Greek troops and a gratifying dem
onstration of Hellenic patriotism.
If the Greeks listen to reason and
the arguments which will be press
ed by England at Athens and by Prus
sia at Constantinople It is not Improb
able that a decision will be reached by
tomorrow, before which It is not sup
posed here that Edhem Pasha or Os
mnn Pasha will have time to do more
than to appear at Pharsqla.
it is useless to deny that a very
Bloomy view of the war prospects is
taken at Athens by the better In
formed. There are, however, no signs
of panic. The city exhibits an atti
tude of dignified endurance, while
many persons still show an unabated
enthusiasm for fight. This symptom
Is particularly noticeable among: the
wounded now In Athens. Their one de
sire seems to he to be healed In order
that they may rejoin the colors. Nat
urally this spirit Is much fostered by
the confirmation of the reports that
the Turks have "burned the Greek
wounded in a church at Kurtzlovall.
Many of tha Greek wounded Implored
their comrades to klll them, while
others committed suicide.
Although It is said that the Greeks
carried oft all their guns from Tyrnavo
and Larlssa, and also destroyed the
provisions at both places, they could
not transport the guns to Pharsala,
It is reluctantly believed by some In
Athenian circles that the retreat was
somewhat disorderly, and that some
of the gunH were abandoned with but
feeble defense. It seems probable, how
ever, that In the main the retreat was
In good order.
The word goes forth In Athens that
the government will persevere In the
struggle with the Greek determina
tion. The report, however, has not
served to allay the growing Irratlon
at the belief that, even If Greece could
not hold her own, the non-offensive
policy manifested In the orders of the
arown prlnoe not to attack was Idiotic
and un-Greclan. Tha retreat to Phar
sala is considered a poor response to
the fiery speeches of Crown Prince
Constantln to his troops.
Naturally all sorts of reasons are ad
vanced to explain why the Greeks re
treated, the more candid admitting
that tho Turks were too strong-. It
Is also pointed out that the Turkish
oavalry did much to turn the scale
In favor of Edhem Pasha.
The Greek fleet is also the subject
of many curious reports, one of which
assarts that the eastern squadron has
bombarded Dedeaarach. It Is known
that the Turks on Saturday ordered
that all the lanterns in the lighthouses
on the Gulf of Salonlca should remain
unllghted. Five ironclads and four
torpedo boats are operating along the
coast between Platamona and Kater
Ina. The British and French subjects
residing at Volo have wired to their
respective envoys at Athens begging
for the dispatch of wai'Bhlps to Volo
to protect them. The envoys have
wired to tbrlr governments and to the
admirals at Canea, but at Athena It
Is considered unnecessary to comply
with the request, aa an attack upon
Volo is no part of the Turkish pro
gram. Dispatches from Arts somewhat
modify Saturday's reports and tone
down the glowing prospects, although
the Athenians are still hoping that the
capture of Janlna may come as an off
set to the retreat from Thessaly. There
Is no confirmation of the report that a
white flag has been seen Hying over
Prevesa citadel, and Pentepigadia has
