Goes to tho Jury.
ly Long l)lstnnesrelephone.
IlAnnisiiuno, October 8.
Thomas J. Joyce, editor of the Black Dia
mond, of Mahanoy City, wag arraigned in
tho Dauphin comity court at Harrisburg yes
terday afternoon, pofore Judge Archibald, of
Lackawanna county, on the charge of libol
preferred by Ilotj. Joseph Wyatt, of town.
Tlio latter charged Joyce with having pub
lished n libelous irtlclo in tlio Issue of his
paper of Juuo 37, setting forth that Wyntt.fn
order to procure lit olcctlon ns Sorgoant-nt-Arms,
had entered uto a written ngrecmont
to pay half of hl salary to State Sonator
John J. Coylo. Tito grand jury found a true
bill yosterdiy morning, and the case was im
mediately marked for trial In the uftornoon.
Among those from this county at Harris
burg, subpoenaed as witnesses, aro the
following: David M. Graham, Charles C.
Burchill, Hon. E. A. Griffiths, Patrick
Clcary. Philip E. Coylo, John J. Coylo and
John W. Parker, of Mahanoy City ; Hon.
C. N. Brumm, of Mlnersville ; and Repre
sentatives Schrink aud Onnc.
Mr. Joyce was present in Harrisburc. but
when tho case wa called ho was not pro
pared, as ho had no counsel. Ho subsequently
retained Mr. rox, nn eminent lawyer of
Uarrlsburg. Mr. Wyatt was renroscntcd by
Senator McCurrell, of Dauphin, and John F.
Wiialen, of this county. Mr. Joyce asked
for a continuance on tho plea that nn import
ant witness, the fourth party present when
tuo alleged agreement was Blgned, could not
bo socured before next Week : and in reply to
a question said E. A. Griffiths was nn im
portant witness in tho Coylo case, but not in
this one. Judge Archibald ovorruled tho
motion for n continuance.
Mr. Wyatt was tlio first witness called. Ho
stated he had been defeated for tho Legisla
ture. Ho camo to Pottsville and Hon. G. C,
Schrink suggostod that ho run for tho posi
tion of Scrgcant-at-Arms. Ho thoughtfavor
ably of this proposition and spoke to his
friends, among them being Congressman
Brumm, Represontativo Ormo, United States
Senator Quay and others. He saw Stato Sen
ator Coyle about two weeks after tho talk
with Mr. Schrink, but no such meeting as
had been mentioned in tho articlo took place
ncithor had they entered into any agreement
to olect him to tho placo.
Senator Coylo, tho; next witness, denied
that such a meeting had been held or that
such an agreomcnt had been nmdo. Itupro
sentntives Schrink nnd Ormo testified to
reading tho articlo, but neither knew of any
agreement being made.
Congressman Brumm tostlficd to a conver
sation ho had with Joyce, in which tho latter
said ho would not quit until ho drove Coylo
and Wyatt out of tho county. At this point
tlio Commonwealth rested.
For the defenco Mr. Joyco testified that
Wyatt mot him in Pottsville and talked
about tho position of SorireaHt-at-Arms.
Witness told him to bco Coylo nud Wyatt
camo to Mahanoy City and they went to
Coylo s olluo with another party, (tho mys
terous important witness). Wyatt asked
Coylo to help him got tho placo of Sorgcant-
at-Arms. Coylo (aid ho had been fooled
enough by men for whom ho had got places
and ho wanted an agroumcut in writing that
ho would get half of tho salary. Ho said the
position of Sorgcant-at-Arms was worth
$ 12,000. Coyle drew up a paper and Wyatt
signed it. Witness did pot lead tho paper
but believed that It was concerning what had
been talked about. At this point court ad
journed until this rooming.
Tho case was resumed this mornine at 0
o'clock, with about 100 peoplo in attendance.
lUas. bnydcr, Lsq., of Pottsville, was present
to assist in the defense
Mr. Joyce was called and testified that tho
fourth person who witnessed tho aliened
compact between Coylo and Wyatt, was
Thomas R. Gorman. Tlio witness said ho
saw Mr. Gorman at tho Mansion Uonso in
Mahanoy City last night and triod to luduco
him to go to Harrisburg, but that ho sliuncd
away from witness at MoElbenny's cafe.
Senator Coylo was called and swore that ho
never received nny monoy because of Wyatt's
appointment.
Congressman Brumm testified that the de
fendant's reputation for varacity was bad.
aud that ho would not bolieve him ou his
oath. A wordy wnrsusucd between tho wit
ness and Attorney Snyder, and in reply to
a question by the latter as to who told him
the defendant's reputation waB bad, Mr.
Brumm said: "You did, yourself." Snyder
replied : "Perhaps you havo heard me say
the samo thing of your,"
Mr. Wyatt, tho prosecutor, was recalled.
and again denied tho charges contained in
tho alleged libelous articlo.
P. J. Cloary, whom Mr. Snydor designated
as private detectivo for Coyle, testified that
Joyce's reputation was bad. When asked
whother he received a political appolntmont
from Senator Coyle, he answered in the af
firmative o was also asked whether or
not ho was a Democrat. Tho commonwealth
objected, but tho court ovorruled the ob
jections, and Cleary said he was a Democrat
sometimes it depends upon the platform.
R. L. Jlelser was called and Questioned as
to the defendant's reputation for veracity, as
were also several other witnesses, including
Editor John W. 1'arkerand others.
M. J. Moore, one of the witnesses subpoe-
naed, arrived in court after the ovidence had
closed.
Attorney Fox, at 18:15, began his address to
tho jury in behalf of the defense, and was
followed by Senator MtOarrell for tho Com
monwealth.
. In charging the Jury Judge Archibald said
that during the first day of the trial he had
not lnilstod that the defendant same the
fourth party present whon the alleged com
pact between Wyatt and Coyle was made, but
did so on condition that he be named to-day
and bo produced iu court. The witness is
not here. If, however, the defendant lias
made proper effort to secure wltuess' pres
ence, that was in his favor. Whother ho has
done so, tho jury must determine But ii
you are not convinced of his story, his mo
tivo seriouiy Impeaeheshls testimony. The
court said there was no question that the
publication was libelous. But tho verdict
hluges on the point, was the nrtlolo truo or
was It published with malleious intent.
Tho Jury at 3 o'eloek, on the third ballot,
returned a verdict of guilty. A motion for
now trial was made.
Association Held nil Important Meet
lug lMt Nlglit.
The Shenandoah Soldiers' Monument Asso
ciation held another meeting In the head
quarters of the G. A. II., in Refowloh' build
ing on Main street, last night and nboul
twenty-five representatives from tho several
organizations interested in tho movement
were in attendance. In tho absence of the
regular chairman, Mr. T. J. James, the meet
ing had as presiding officer Mr. David Mor
gan, who also made a report In behalf of the
finnuco committee and stated thai there wore
ono or two small things requiring attention
to enable the committee to present a final re
port. He showed that considerable work had
been done since tho general committee last
met and his report was quite satisfactory It
showed that tho funds avnllablo for use at
the present timo amount to $1,100. It was
decided to glvo tho committee nn oxtension
of two wcoks timo in whioh to prepare it
final report.
Hon. M. C. Watson suggested that a com
mittee bo appointed to seo if a site for the
monument can be secured on tho highway
between tlio Odd Fellows' and Annuueiation
cemetrics. There was a disposition to lay
the matter over until after the finance com
mittee's final report, hot n more actlvo spirit
developed when Mri P. D. Hoi maii moved
that tho committee proceed with tho soldiers'
monument project and make determined
oflorts to accomplish tho result desired.
Tho object of tho motion was to allay nny
doubts as to whether tho commltteo intended
to push tlio project to completion and it was
adopted by a unanimous vote.
This motion was then followed by one that
May 30, 1808, bo fixed ns tho day for the
dedication of tho monument. It occasioned
considerable discussion and, at first, somo
opposition, but finally the sentiment in favor
assumed proportions that resulted in tho
motion being carried.
Mr. J. J. Powell then mado a motion that a
commltteo of threo bo appointed to call upon
Major Hebcr S. Thompson, Major E. C.
Wngnor and other officials of tho Girard
Estate to ascertain if a sito for tho monu
ment can be secured on tlio mountain and
botwoen tho Odd Fellows' and Annuncia
tion cemeteries, or in tho field nbovo tho
Rescuo II. & L. Co.'s houso. This motion
also prevailed and tho chair appointed tho
following commltteo : Hon. M. C. Watson,
U. C. Boyor and R. H. Morgan.
Argument on this part of tlio proceedings
was also quito longthy beforo tho motion pre
vailed, but it was understood that in the ap
pointment of tho committee there was no
definite action on sito. During tho early
stages of tho commltteo it was decided to
placo tho monument at tho intersection of
tho corners of Main and Centro streets, but
since that timo it has becomo apparent that
tho plan is not feasible. Should tho com
mittee, which is to report nt tlio next meet
ing, receive satisfactory replies from tho
Girard Estato officials tho original motion on
sito will no doubt be roconsidorcd nnd action
taken to conform to whatever arrangements
tlio committco may designate. From tho re
sults of last night's meeting it seems that the
soldiers' monument is to bo pushed forward
vigorously hereafter and all who will con
tribute to tho project will havo an opportunity
to do so in a substantial manner in tho near
future.

A BRIDEGROOMS'S LEAP TO DEATH
Jumped From the Window of a New York
Hotel and Left His Bride of a Day a
Wldow'Two Philadelphia
Suicides.
New York, Oct. 2. A woman and her
four children were found dead by as
phyxiation in the West Shore hotel,
Forty-second street and KleventlT ave
nue, yeetenlay morning. The woman
had evidently killed her children and
committed suicide.
The victims of the terrible tragedy
were the wife nnd children of Robert
nivlnlus, an enlisted man In the United
States army at West Point. Rlvlnlus is
a printer in the administrative build
ing. He has been in the army 30 years,
and expects to be retired In July next.
He was greatly moved on receiving
news of the death of his wife and chil
dren. He is a German and speaks En
glish imperfectly. He was so excited
that he could give no coherent account
of his family.
Laura, the oldest of the children, was
15, William 13, Albert 7 and Elizabeth
4 years old. Mrs. Rlvlnlus was 40. Mrs.
Victor Laher, n sister of Mrs. Rlvlnlus,
says that the trip of her sister-in-law
to New York was merely a little pleas
ure excuslon, as the children had had
no outing during the summer.
It Is surmised that Mrs. Rlvlnlus
waited until the children were asleep
before she began her deadly work. The
task of stufllng up all the holes In the
room that would allow the gas to es
cape must have consumed over an hour.
The woman and the children were In
their night clothes when found. By the
sides of the beds were found their two
trunks. Their contents had been scat
tered about. Some of the clothing had
been torn up for the stuffing up of the
cracks. There was a small amount of
money In her pocketpocket.
There were ten other suicides In and
about the city yesterday, in addition
to Mrs. Rlvlnlus nnd Dr. Flagg. They
wore: Harmon S. Burt of Norwich,
Conn., poison; C. K. Royce, San Fran
cisco, asphyxiation; Theodore Miller,
shooting; Ralph Knocho, carbolic acid;
E. Zi. Hnfner and Frank C. Holly,
asphyxiation; Mrs. Bertha Hummel,
carbolic acid; Julia Cutto, carbolic acid;
George Mnrtln, cut his throat with
broken glass; Michael Walsh, poison.

dow, Leaving a. Ilrldo of a Bay.
New York, Oct. 2. Dr. Robert N..
Flagg, 38 years of age, of Yonkers, N.
Y., who .was married there Thu
ntgnt, committed suwiae ytjsnswjsj" w
Jumping from a second story window
of the Murray Hill hotel. When picked
up Djglagg had his skull fractured,
his leg uroken, and he had received se
vere bruises of the body. Mrs. Flagg,
who 'was a Miss Eleanor Hurner, a
professional nurse in the Yonkers hos
pital, about 2G years old, and decidedly
good looking, said that in conver
sation with her husband the latter had
become greatly excited and rushed to
the window to Jump out. She tried to
restrain him, but he thrust her aside
and Jumped. Physicians say he was a
victim of acute mania.
Dr. Flagg was the oldest son of the
late Dr. Levi N. Flagg, and the de
scendant of one of the first families
that settled in West Chester county.
He was identified prominently with a
number of organizations in Yonkers,
and was a member of the board of di
rectors of William F. Cochran's Work
ing Men's club, known as the Holly
wood Inn.
It is well known In Yonkers that the
doctor was suffering from some mental
trouble by reason of the business fail
ure of Howard W. and George A.
Flagg, his brothers. Dr. Flagg had in
dorsed a large amount of paper for the
firm, which conducted a large hat man
ufactory in Yonkers.
He resided with his aged mother and
two unmarried sisters. For the past
few days he had been acting queerly,
and on Thursday afternoon he left for
New York city, informing his relatives
that he would not return until morning.
He did not say anything of his intended
marriage. He was a prominent mem
ber of the First Presbyterian church
of Yonkers.
Two I'lillndolplila Suloldoa.
Philadelphia, Oct. 2. Two men, un
known to each other, were found dead
In adjoining hotels yesterday, both hav
ing committed suicide. One was Rob
ert Jones Monaghan, a prominent law
yer of West Chester, Pa., and well
known as a Democratic polltlolan of
Pennsylvania, who inhaled illuminating
gas. Mr. Monaghan had been a candi
date for congress, and was a friend of
ex-Governor Pattison. 'Over work Im
paired his faculties some years ago,
when he disappeared for six months,
and was Anally located in Australia. It
Is thought that a recurrence of the
mental trouble led to his self destruc
tion. The second was Joseph Daniels,
of Woodatown, N. J., 46 years old, who
took laudanum, leaving this note to his
father: "I have been a disgrace to
you and myself, and the sooner I am
dead the better."
