factory and all proceedings were dropped.
l'anlo on a Car.
A lively time occurred on tho olectrio car
on the Lakeside railway which loft Mahanoy
City at 11:80 o'olook last night. Among the
passengers were two lutoxicatcd men, one
hailing from Shenandoah and the other from
Yatesvllle. After the car had passed Kaler'g
crossing one of tho men pulled a whisky
bottle out of his pocket aud asked his partner
to havo a drink. Tho conductor seeing this
objected to the proceedings as many ladies
were on board. A war of words ensued
followed by the ejectment of the man from
Yntoaville.. As the car started out no trace
of tho Yateevllle man could ho seen, and it
was stopped again, as It was feared by the
crew he might havo landed under the oar.
He loomed up suddenly, however, with two
large stones in olther hand making tho pas
sengers drop to the floor for safety. After
another tusslo with tho man, the oar managed
to proceed.

TjlE TABOR
FAILURE I
Counsel For the Creditors Pressing the
Investigation.
MR. TABOR STANDS A LONG -SIEGE
He Was Under a Hot Examination For Fire
Hours and the Inquiry Was Directed
to the Relations of Witness
to Meluskey Ic Seft.
The leading toplo In town hi
upon the
aluSVe of
fCblef
Burgess Tabor in the meat business and the
efforts of Armour & Co. aud otner creditors
to show-that llio sale of his Interests to Mrs.
Justyna Szydlowskl was a part of s scheme to
defraud Tabor's creditors. Miles! interest is
manifested in the legal proceedings directtd
to that point and reports of the proceedings
before Commissioner Martin F. Moore are
evidently much sought. No li$e Interest
was oreated yestereay by the development
that Tabor did a business aver gist f 100,000.
It is conceded onall sides thit no retail
butcher in this region ever equalled such a
record and that Tabor should have handled a
business of such proportions and collapsed
without more than two or three dollars to
his credit in tank creates no little surprise.
However, tho evidence thus far taken indi
cates that tho collapse was a complete one.
Mr. Tabor was under a rapid legal fire for
five hours yestorday and the counsel for the
creditors failed to elicit anything that af
forded them encouragement, wt it is
understood that in the examinaUgn of Mr.
Tabor they only aimed to prepare m ground
plan upon which thoy will move dther wit
nesses to good effect. On tho outer hand
counsel for Mr. Tabor aud Mrs. SKydlowski
view the proceedings with the utmost com
placency and more than oue told tie oppos
ing counsel yesterday with no little degree of
seriousness that the efforts to prove fraud in
the matter was like seeking trout in a sul
phur stream.
Mr. Adams yesterday pressed Mr. Tabor on
the relations which existed between him and
Mrs. Szydlowskl and her husband and the
witness testified that none of tin; negotiations
for the sale of the property were negotiated
with Justyna Szydlowskl. He owed rro money
to her husband, hut the latter conducted all
tho negotiations as agent, or attorney, for his
wife. Aftor the bill of salo was made Tabor
went around to the thrco shops and told the
employes that ho was no longer employing
them, that Szydlnwski was the boss. Witness
testified that ho and Andrew Meluskey
married sisters. He said he knew nothing
about tho affairs of Meluskey and when
asked whether they wore out of business and
if tbey did not Boll out on or about August
23rd; during tho month of August he re
ceived a quantity of smoked shoulders which
had been consigned to Meluskey & Son. lie
could not tell how many barrels lie received.
Witness refused to state tho arrangement
uuder which he received the shoulders, under
direction of his couusel. Ho also refused
to toll where he got tho goods aud whether
or not the goods wero put into his place.
Tubor's counsel directed him that he need
answer nothing concerning any transactions
ho had with MelUhkey & Son in tho line
upon which the examination was directed.
Mr. Wadllngcr contended that lie would not
allow the examination to bo made a drag net
for any other litigation.
Iu answer to this Mr. Adams said he pro
posed to show by tho witness that shortly be
fore the conveyance of the property to
Szdlowskl by Tabor that a quantity of
smoked meats at estimated value of $800
wero received In Shenandoah, consigned to
Meluskey & Son: that they were transferred
from the ?epot to Tabor's market and Tabor,
in turn, turned them over to Szydlowskl ami
Szdlowskl never gave him any credit on any
of his indebtedness for'these smoked meats
and has not iuco.'porated in the bill of sale.
These meats wore received between the 1st
and 30th of August.
Upon this statemtmt Mr. Wadlinger with
drew his instructions to the-wituess and
Tabor said he did get some smoked meats
from Meluskey & Sou. Ho couldu't say how
many barrels there were. Witness said he
sold the meats as ho did tho other smoked
meats and he sold moats to Szydlowskl by
the barrels, but could not toll how much;
nor bad ho any records that would show the
amount. It did not amount to much, how
ever. To tho best of witness's recollection
ho thought he sold Szydlowskl between ten
and flteen barrels of shoulders at the rate of
seven cents a pound and paid for them. Wit
ness said ho got no hams from the depot
marked Meluskey & Son. The meats he
bought from Meluskey & Son were delivered
to his store by them.
Mr. Wadlinger then examined Mr. Tabor,
who stated that be was 31 years of age and
had resided iu Shenandoah 14 years. He be
came acquainted with the Szydlowskis about
thrco Years ago aud thoy started iu business
about 21 years ago, dealing in smoked meats
and making sausage. From the time he had
business dealings with them and that led up
to the loans made by them to him. Witness
said he has had no connection with any of
tlie three places since the day of the sale,
Considering the sale was in bulk, the condi
tion of his horses and the condition of his
business witness thought W0 a fair price
for the three places.
The examination conducted by Mr. Wad-
linger was instrumental only in nuking more
distinct and emphatic the testimony aa to
the circumstances that led up to the sale of
Tabor's business to Mrs. Ssydlowski and
during tlie examination Tabor testified that
he was not pressed ou the Szydlowskl claim
until the Saturday before toe sale was made,
when Mr. Ssydlowski said that he beard
stories that Tabor was going to pieces finan
cially and Mrs. Ssydlowski was gettiug
worried over tier loaus or f l.sou. it was
then tliat 'labor told Ssydlowski that the
only way the letter's wife could secure her
self was to give bitn $1,000 more and buy
blm out. Mr. Ssydlowski was not willing to
do tills, but subsequently called at Tubor's
place and acceded to the proposition. After
Mr. Wsdlluger concluded his examination
the proceedings were adjourned until next
Wednesday, at it p. m.

THE CONNELLHEARING.
Some Important Testimony Taken Jlefore
Squire lister.
The taking of testimony before 'Squire
Fister, at Pottsvllle, In the esse of the County
Commissioners vs. Phil. J. Connell. tbeir ex
clerk, charged with forgery and embezzle
ment in connection with tho missing county
funds, attracted a large crowd yesterday
afternoon. Connell was not present, neither
was his attorney. The Commissioners were
represented by William Willielni and John
W. Rynn, Esqs , as special counsel, and
Solicitor Charles Berger.
The witnesses called were Burd VI. Payne,
Deputy Controller; Irvin Hoser, Clerk in
the Commissioners' office; Chief Clerk
Horace Raber; Treasurer Hassan) and Presi
dent Tyson, of (he Safe Deposit bank ;
Cashier Seibort, of the Penna. National
bank ; Deputy County Treasurer Kline, end
Constable Ploppert, who has been searching
for the missing clerk.
It was shown by the testimony of Mr.
Payne that the note of Juno 11. 1890, for $30,
000, was signed by Messrs. Rents, Martin and
Allen, and countersigned by Phil. Connell.
The minutes, however, were dated June 8,
but the witness conld not explain tins. The
note for the temporary loan dated June 6,
1890, calls for fS.OOO, $10,000 and 15,000 re
spectively, making a total of $80,000. At
this time $29,000 was to be renewed. The
records Of the County Treasurer show thero
was no money received at that time. The
minutes attached to the note of June t are
not correct. The witness produced the notes
to be renewed. One of these was a note
dated April 2, 1898, for $5,000 for 00 days on
the Safe Deposit bunk to which was attucl.i d
a resolution authorizing the loan. ThK wus
due June 1. It was renewed in tho $30,
000 note. Another note was dated March
28, 1808 for $5,000 was renewed. This was
sigued by Rents and Martin and attested to
by Connell. The third note was for $15,000
due June 7, 1896, was produced. Thesnwnre
the only notes due when the loan of $30,000
was made. The Carbon copy dated June 8,
1800, Is not to lie found.
It was further shown by witnesses that the
note dated June 0, 1800, for $5,000, was can
celled by a punch supposed to he kept under
lock and key Iu Comiell's desk, that the
other notes were cancelled with the mark
"X" made by block and hammer kept in the
vault or the Commissioners' office.
It was also Bhnwn that the Carbon eopv of
o minutes of Jane 6, 1890, was endorsed bv
Typewriter Irvin Moser, but it appears that
there was no uieni,.i of tie note fur HJtnoo
therein. Another important point eliclttd
by the testimony was that Mr. Conner's bank
account was in shape for a man only receiv
ing a moderate saiaiy.
Con; table Ploppert testified he held the
warrant fur Cnunell's arrest, aud told of his
unsuccessful efforts to lorate hit man, but
would continue the search. Testimony was
produced iu reference to Gormen's pleasure
trip to the Pacific cost and Southern oitiee.
covering i period of 42 days.
uvving to the unavoidable absence of
material witnesses the hearing adjourned in
definitely.

TO RETIRE
The Spanish Cabinet Decides Upon His
Recall.
GENERAL BLANCO SUCCEEDS HIM.
The Retiring Captain General of Cuba
Denounces the Stories That He
, Would Resist Removal or
Espouse the Carllst
Cause.
Madrid, Oct. 9. The cabinet has de
cided upon the Immediate recall of Gen
eral Weyler from Cuba. A decree has
been Issued appointing General Blanco
y Arenas, Marquis of Pena-Plata, cup
tain general of the Island. The queen
regent signed the decree today. Gen
eral Blanco will be accompanied by
General Arderino as vice governor of
Cuba, by General Gonzalez Palrals as
chief of staff, and Generals Pando,
Bernal and Canella.
According to El Heraldo 20,000 rein
forcements will accompany General
Blanco to Cuba.
In the course of the cable message
sent by Captain General Weyler to
Premier Sagasta, placing his post in
Cuba at tlie disposal of the government,
he said:
"If the functions with which the
government had entrusted me had been
merely those of captain general of
Cuba I should have hastened to resign.
But the twofold character of my mis
sion and my duty as commander-ln-ohlef
In the fnce of the enemy prevent
my tendering a resignation.
"Nevertheless, although I can rely
upon the absolute, unconditional sup
port of the Autonomists and Constitu
tional parties, as well as upon public
opinion, this would be Insufficient with
out the confidence of the government,
now more than ever necessary to me
after the censure of which I have lipi-n
made the object by the members and
journals of the Liberal party and bj
public opinion In the United States,
which latter is largely influenced by
the former. This confidence would be
necessary to enable me to put an end
to the war, which has already been
Virtually concluded from our linen at
Jucaro to Cape Antonio."
Senor Sagasta replied.
"I thank you for your explanation,
and value your frankness. I wish to
assure you that the government recog
nises your; services and values them as
they deserve, but It thinks a change of
policy. In order to succeed, requires
that the authorities should be at one
with the ministry.
'Tills has nothing to do with the con
fidence felt In you by the government,
for the Liberals have always said that
the responsibility for n given policy
does not fall upon those who carry It
out, but upon the government Inspir
ing it. I shall communicate your de
cision to the government shortly."
A Havana dispatch says that General
Weyler yesterday gave an emphatic
and absolute denial to the reports that
he would resist removal from his com
mand In Cuba, and in ertaln contin
gencies might espouse the Carllst
cause. He said:
"My principles and my military rec
ord are Arm guarantees that I will
never oppose the constituted govern
ment, whatever It mav lie. I never
have put obstacles In the way of gov
ernment, and I never shall. I have
always obeyed orders, and I always
shall. So far as popular demonstra
tions go. 1 accept them only as ex
pressions of approval of my military
policy and as tokens of personal sym
pathy." The merchants of the island continue
to send cable messages to Senor Sa
gasta expressing their approval of Gen
eral Weyler s campaign, and their en
tire confidence in him.

petite and no strength. I resorted to
Hood's Sflrsaparllla and soon felt more
like work. My little nephew was a deli
cate child and bad a.humor which trou
bled him so he could not rest at night.
He has taken a few bottles of Hood's Sar
saparilla and now he has a good appetite
and is able to sleep." Miss Abbib J.
