TOWNSHIP IiITMTIOflS O'Neill Libel Stijt Goes Over Until Next Tuesday. CAUSE OF THE POSTPONEMENT 1 Many Rumors Afloat as to Overtures For a Settlement of All the Litigations But They Are Contradictory Dis claimers Made by Both ,Bldes. Special to ISVBNiifn HntALn. PoTrsviLMt, 8ettt. 18. Immediately after tho postponement !ef tho O'Neill libel suit rumors floated absjBt that tho oate would probably novor bo heard of again In court, except by way of settlement. Investigation by the llEnAtn correspondent showed pretty conclusively that, While thero wero grounds for tho rumors, thojehances of such a result materializing wero hot very bright. A gcntlenuii who Is interested on tho School Directors' stdo of tho case sold ho believed that on Tuesday morning, next, anotlior postponement would bo naked by Mr. O'Neill's counsel. His ground for this liclief was infonnaffon which he stated lie had received from Jan authoritivo source to the effect that thoj prosecutors In tho mls demeanor and porjUry cases had made over tures for a settlement; that they wero willing to enter a njil. pros, in tho two suits and pay tlio costs Ifjtlio libel suit would bo dropped. Tho correspondent then saw another party identified with tho oases and ho stated that one of tlio counsel for Mr. O'Neill had In timated this morning to ono of tho counsol for the School Boi -d that tho misdemeanor caso would bo dropped. Lator on tho correspondent conversed with parties interested du the O'Neill and Deo sido of the cases and tho abovo statements wore vigorously denied. It was claimed, on tlio other hand, that the overtures for MJttlo mcnt catno from the other sldo, that it had been proposed to drop all tho suits aud tho costs would bo paid by tho prosecutors iu tho libol suit and defendants iu tlio misdemeanor and perjury suits. Nono of tho parties making theso state ments would allow their names to bo used in connection wltU them. Hut on one sido It was positively stated that the libel suit could not bo sottled because tho School Directors would havo to be vindicated aud on tho other side it was stated that tho misdeamor and perjury cases could not bo sottled. As one gentleman put it, "Somo people think that this fight Is being put up against O'Neill and Doe only, but It will bo found out that there aro Interests iuvolvcd of much greater im portance than tho personal Interests of these two gcntlomen." Taking all tho rumors under consideration, with their sources and tho manner in which they started it Is fair to assurno that a pro position or Intimation of a settlement camo from one sido or tho other since yesterday's session, but thero dbes not appear to bo a likelihood that a settlement will be reached. Tho chances for tho trial proceeding on Tues day uro by far Btrongcr than otherwise Special to Kvesiko Herald. Potts vi r.LB, Sept. 18. Tho first day's session of tlio libel suit of tho Common wealth, through P. J. Ferguson ct. al., of Lost Creek, against J. Jerome O'Neill closed last ovening without any ovontful incidents other than a tilt between Judge Savidgo and w. A. Marr, Esq., ono of tho counsel for the Commonwealth. Jt was brief, but whilo it lasted it sizzled and It looked at ono stage as If tho court might tako an advanced step against tho lawyer from Ashland, Tho re wrro two tilts, Tho last created the most smoko. On tho first occasion Mr. Wadllnger was about to press an objection to ono of the questions applied to School Director Fergu son by Mr. Whalen when Judge Savidgo said there was no use pressing tho matter, ns ho had already ruled on tho question and his decision would stand, no matter what ar gument was made. Mr. Wadllnger took his sot, remarking that when ho arose to speak he generally did it with tho object of making a point a poit, and not for tho mere purpose of talking. Mr. Marr left his scat and said, as ho walked to tho main exist of tho court room, that ho didn't see any uso of raising any objections, Judgo Savidgo retorted that if counsol saw no uso of raising objections they should not wasto timo in doing so. Mr. Marr fired back something which only the court seemed to catch. Judge Savidgo'a face became flushed and, as Mr. Starr's form disappeared from tho court room, tho Judgo said he would like to know if tho remark was directed at him. But the mattor endod thero. His Honor cooled down and Mr. Marr returned to tho court room and re sumed his scat without any furthor rcforenco bolng made to the affair. Later, howovor, a similar objection was raised and hero was a similar tilt, when Judgo Savidgo, with flushed faco and a deter mined look towards Mr. Marr, said : "There is no lawyer anywhere, uo matter how high ho may bo, who dare como into court and make a remark such as 'There is no uso ob- jectlng,' because It Is an insult to tho court." Mr. Marr replied with emphasis that as coun sel ho could not bo oxpected to sit idly by and not open his mouth. Whenover ho con sidered impropor evidence was being intro duced he deemed it his duty to object. Judgo Savidgo said he desired It understood that ho was honest in his rulings and if he mado mistakes ho could not help it. Mr. Marr said ho did not question tho honesty of the rulings and his remarks were only Intended as answer to what the court had stated. This onded tho exchange.

Boldlers are kent here mufch Inrnror the Sheridan troop, of Tyrone, attaohed to the Second brigade, will be ordered out. A captain of General Gobln's staff is authority for tho statemont that an uneasy feeling- prevails at headquar ters In conseauenco of the littla out breaks of the past few days and the Indication thev hold nf trtn nmlnrlvlnir disturbance. Tho brigade commander himself ntl- mitled last night that the action of the raiding women was giving' him much perplexity. He does not care to use force against them, and has lnstmcted the soldiers, In cose of necessity, to use only the Hats of their sabers upon the amazonB. Tho story reached the general that many man were In ihn attacking crowds of Thursday and yes terday disguised as women. The strikers no longer disperse when the trOODS anncar In their (rrltnrw and yesterday while a body ot Eighth reKiiiieui umcers wore taking a look over the Honey Brook district a burly iTwu woman wno stood at the head of a crowd of foreign women and men shouted to the captain: "Sav. can. rii. vldo your guns with us, and we'll give you a or a ngnt." The soldiers Ig nored tho challenge. Similar taunts have been thrown at bodies of mllitln In the Drlfton district as well. Yesterday' violent scene at Auden rled was almost an exact repetition of Thursday's at the same place. It arose from another attempt to start the Mon arch and Star washerles of the Lehigh and Wllkesbarre company. About a hundred men reported for work at the former, when the wild band ot women swooped down upon them with an armament of sticks and stonos. Others were stationed on top of an adjacent culm bank, whence thev Rhnwerert ml. Biles upoia the would-be workers, and a iar seay or mtn ana boys waited In r hthtui the bank. The men promptly quit werk before any Injury could be mXMotet. At the Star wash, ery, where 1 of 135 men wanted to work, a like assault stopped them. No further attempt was made to work the Carson washery. A squad of the Gov ernor's Troop went there to quell the disturbance, but all was quiet when they arrived, excent that the rnhhio of the women hooted and cursod the military, who made no response. A call for trooDs camn frnm nn berry at 2 o'clock yesterday morning and was the act of a scared watchman. who mistook soldiers for strikers. All the dynamite that can bo found In the region Is bolng collected and stored In Turnbach's powder house, to keep It from the hands of the miners, and a hundred men from tho Ninth mrim.ni were sent oyer to guard the house. The watchman saw the lights nnd moving figures, lost his nerve and telephoned that an attack was threatened. Late Thursday nlo-ht annthoi- terri tory was turbulent. A body of strikers ai uiiumer no. z quarreled among themselves, and bloodshed threatened, when Comnanv 13. of lli Tiiirtaonti. regiment, which Is camped at Lattlmer, restored quiet. Deputy Coroner Bowman will begin the Inquest over tho bullion nf tho .ico.i miners at 2 o'clock next Tuesday after noon, xnese attorneys will be present: Robert D. Coxe ot Philadelphia, for the Austrian consulate of that T. Lenahun of Wllkesbarre and George a. i'erns or l'lttston, for Sheriff Mar tin, and John McGahren of Wllkes barre, for the prosecution. It Is said that the Democratic state chairman, Mr. Garman, will also represent the prosecution. Over a hundred witnesses will be examined. One of these was a deputy who did not take part In the shooting, but was hurrying to the soene when It occurred. This man says, according to County Detective Bckert, that the deputies kept on shooting when the strikers were 200 yards away. Mr. Kckert added that the evl.lence of five of the wounded corroborates this allegation. General Gobln will not Interfere with tonlbht's bin mass meetlno- nnhuu. highly colored speeches are made.
