AgreementAdmltted In
Evidence.
Pottsville, Feby. 1. Tho sentence imposed
upon Thomas J. Joyce, editor of tho Black
Diamond, or rather tho suspension of sen
tence, presented its amusing features. Joyce
was convicted of libeling John J. Coyle, but
ho daro not comirilt such a grave sin again.
Judge Savldge gave the pungent paragrapher
to understand that he must not dip his pen in
vitrei in tho futuro, thus causing sores that
aro hard to heal. His Honor suspended sen
tence, but could not refrain from giving
Joyce some wholesome advise, as fellows:
You do not stop to consider how much your
writings hurt people whom you' have used
unjustly; and if you thought at all it was
that such article! would sell your piper, and
would not hurl much. But they do hurt.
Tho court docs not only refer to this case.
Others have smarted under your criticisms.
Iheso peoplo, however, show a friendly dis
position, and you should bo careful in the
futuro. You must not make any more
attacks on Mr. Coylo and must not abuse 1 1 is
ability as a writer on social and political ques
tions. The people you have attacked havo
asked for a suspension of sentence on condi
tion that you tone down your newspaper
criticism and keep out of these kind of rews
in the future or the court nill tako tho case
up again for sentence." Joyce promised to
he good in the future. Ho said : From
nuw on my motto will he, 'Be angry, but sin
not.' " lie will have to pay costs amounting
to nearly $500.

THE DEFENSE CLOSE.
Tho Trial of the County CtiiiiltiNsloners Is
Xenrliig the Kiul.
Pottsville, Feb. 1. This is tho twenty-first
day of tho trial of the County Commissioners.
Tho defenso has closed its case, and it will
probably bo in tho hands of the jury to
morrow. Judge Pershing was again on the
stand, called by the commonwealth to con
tradict Mr. Ulrich with reference to his teti
mony on tho subject of advertising the
almshouse contracts. Judt". Porshlng denied
that he ever advised Mr. jlrich that adver
tising these contracts was unnecessary, and
said he was not consulted ou that matter at
all. He said, in contradiction, that he had
but one interview with tho Commissioners.
In answer to Mr. Marr, he said: "I had
two interviews with tho commissioners. I
never discussed tho plans and specifications
for the proposed new buildings.
"Ithiuk the power of the commissioners
was talked over with reference to the new
buildings. The lighting and heating was not
moutioned, that is relatlug to the now build
lugs,"
The iudge admitted that perhaps he had
one unuersianuing, aim tlie commissioners
another.
LOsCIt TISTIFIES.
Hon. S. A. Losch was called to contradict
Mr. Allen. He said Mr. Ulrich drew up tlie
agreement ior me settlement of tho quo
warranto proceedings against Commissioner
Allen, and there was a verbal agreement
with Commissioners Allen and Martin for the
payment of salaries of the controller, his
deputy, attorney, &c. All these bills were
tied up. With the permission of the court
Major Losch made a detailed statemont of
the facts that led up to this situation of af
fairs. The costs were divided and White-
house advised him to see the Commissioners
about the payment of tho costs and counsel
fees. They refused, but finally Allen and
Martin agreed that these bills would he
paid.
Mr. Losch said that all the bids were tied
up during the contest between the Cominls.
sloners and the Controller The agreement
was that witness was to withdraw all other
suits. Martin and Allen flist agreed to this
and Rentz approved of It later on, Mr. Ul
rich paid witness (100 counsel fees. This
contract or agreement was carried out iu good
faith with the exception of that portion re
luting to tho appointments. Witness could
not say what the various amounts were, but
thought they included hills of Mr. Ulrich
Severn, Walker, as deputy, Reese, Philip
Yedinsky, as interpreter, and Mr. White
house as attorney for Mr. Severn, Ho dis
continued the suits.
George P. Walker, former deputy Con
troller, was sworn, and detailed the partlcu
lars iu reference lo the settlement of their
salaries. Martin and Allen were present
'I'he information relating to the settlement
came through nuthouse and Losch, The
witness Identified Mr. Ulrich'sblll.
Mr. Schalck this morning offered In evi
dence tlie famous agreement between Senator
Losch and Commissioners Allen and Martin,
in which Senator Losch agrees to withdraw
tho quo warranto suit brought against Allen
to oust him owing to an ante-election agree
ment ho was supposed to have made. Tho
suit was No 71, May term, and It is theiein
agreed to discontinue tlie Milt provided Losch
H allowed to name the nppoinlecs for Warden
uf tlie Prison, Deputy Warden, Assistant
Janiturat tho Court House and one Clerk iu
tlie Commisiiiiers' olllce. It Is also further
(i Greed to allow the appointment of an assis
tant clerk In the County Treasurer's olliee,
that Mr. Allen pay all fros and costs. The
paper is dated September 17, 1S01, and is
signed by Samuel A. Losch, Charles F. Allen
and John P. Martin, the last two County
Commissioners.
It will be remembered this agreement was
not carried out, Commissioners ltentz and
Martin voting to elect Calvin Kroner of
Trcmont, Warden of tho Prison to succeed
Dunkcrocrg of Tamaqua, leaving John F.
Gressang, Losch's candidate, out. Geo. F.
Walker, it is said, was another nppoiatee to
have been made.
Harry Kelher, L. V. it. It. station agent,
was objected to by Mr. Marr, but Judge
Hechtel allowed him to testify. He was to
contradict Architect Hill and Commissioner
Boutz about mileage books used on tho trip
to New York, it being stated that Hill said
but one book was used.
Mr. Keibersaid he sold two boeks to Hill
shortly before 0 o'e'ock a. m. August 27th,
lb0, at$20each, and that the books were
written, one iu the name of Frank IienU,
and tho other iu that of Charles F. Allen,
both County Commissioners.
Tliouias Lawrence, plumbor, of Pottsville.
was called to prove that Hast, as testified by
himself and Commissioner Itentz, novcr put
in a new water closet in tho Judges' room,
and that the closet put in by the original
court house coutractor is there yet. When
sworn the witness so testified. Ho could not,
however, say that a new closet of tho same
kind had not been put in.
George Owens, court houso janitor from
November 1st, 1SH1, to April 1, 1800, said
there was no now closet put in the Judges'
room during his term of oflico.
John Howes, court houso janitor for sii
years, ending January 1st, 1801, swore that
tho judges room water cleset of to-day ap
pears to bo tho same one that was put in
when the court house was built.
Attorney Wilhelm's bill dated Scptombor
11th, 18111, for professional services iu the
recent case versus the County Auditors,
ainouut $300, and tlie resolution from the
Commissioners minutes of the same date
approving payment of bill, were admitted.
At this point Mr. Ityon charged Mr.
Schaick with prolonging the case because he
was paid by tho day, and tlie latter retorted,
"Mind your own business."
Mr. Shortall contradicted some portions of
Deputy Controller Payne's statement of
figures given yesterday. He said tho County
Auditors report showed tho outstanding
temporary loans January 1st, 1890, to be
$lb5,000, the Treasurer's book put them at
10,000, and the Controller's statement at
$193,000, differences of $3,000 and $10,000
respectively.
There were other discrepancies but they
depended upon the manner in which tho
witness was examined, whether by the prose
cution or the defense, and their importance
will depend upon what view the jury take of
them. They, however, show that $10,000 is
missing and some other points that do not in
volve thci loss of any money.
George Eourko, timekeeper for J. W.
Geary, surveyor, was sworn nnd said he did
not remember any man named Frank Bourke
who workd at the Aluishouso.
Q. A bill was presented by Mr. Geary for
two days' work for Frank Bourke and two
others; do you know that man ?
A. No, sir; I don't think I kept that time;
sometimes Geary kept the time.
Q. Did you keep the time for November
and up to December Otli. in which 21 days is
charged for Frank Bourke?
A. I kept no time for Frank Bourke.
Joseph N. Meyer, of Schuylkill Haven,
said he located drains at the almshouse; con
tradicted Gary's statements, by saying he
found maps there made by Cochran & Son;
the changes iu tho plumbing contract made a
difference of $578,73 iu the price. I called
the Commissioners' attention to tins dif
ference and afterwards filed a written pro
test. There was a water cloiet left out of tho
boiler houso. My first hid was $0,322.13.

THE TEliliER
RESOLUTION
Overwhelmingly Defeated By a Vote of
the House.
SPEAKER REED CAST HIS YOTE I
In Opposition to the Measure Declaring For
Bond Payments In Silver, Having
His Name Called In Order to
Flace Himself on Record.
Washington, Fib. 1. The house of
representatives ysterdny burled the
Teller resolution 'declaring the bonds of
the United States payable In silver un
der an advnrne majority of DO votes.
The llepulillenns were solidly arrayed
In opposition, ttli two exceptions, Jlr.
Llnney, of North Carolina, who voted
with the Democrats and Populists, and
Mr. White, of North Carolina, the only
colored member of the house, who an
swered "present" when his name was
called. The desertions from the Dem
ocratic side were McAleer of Pennsyl
vania and Elliott of South Carolina.
Both voted with the Republicans
against the proposition. Speaker Heed,
although It is not customary for him to
vote, had his name called, and amid
the cheers of his followers went on
record in opposition to the resolution.
The vote was reached after live hours
of debate under a special order adopted
at the opening of tho session. The lim
ited time for debate and the pressure of
members for an opportunity to be
heard was so great that the leaders on
both sides were compelled to farm out
the time by minutes. This detracted
much from the continuity of the dis
cussion, hut It also In a measure Inten
sified the interest. The galleries were
crowded all day long, and the combat
ants on the floor were 'cheered by their
respective sympathizers. Many of the
senators from the other end of the
Capitol were present to listen to the
arguments.
The majority, under the leadership
of Mr. Dlngley, who made a carefully
prepared speech sounding the keynote
of the opposition, assumed the position
that the lust clause of tho resolution
was in reality a disguised declaration
for tlie free coinage o silver, while
the assaulting Democrats, under the di
rection of Mr. Ballcy, maintained that
the defeat of tho resolution was an
other step In the direction of the estab
lishment of the gold standard, to which
they alleged both the present and Sec
retary Gage had Irrevocably commit
ted the Republican party.
The debate was at times fast and
heated, but there were no sensational
Incidents beyond the hissing of Mr.
Rhea, of Kentucky, when he said that,
as the author of the "crime of '73,"
the hottest place In hades would lie re
served for the present secretary of
state. The vote on the resolution was:
Yeas, 132; nays, 182.
Yesterday's session of the senate last
ed six hours. Two of the general ap
propriation bills that for tho army, car
rying $23.143,1U2. and that for the leg
islative, Judicial and executive depart
ments, carrylng$21,63S,520 were passed,
the latter, consisting of 121 pages, oc
cupying the attention of the senate
during the greater part of the session.
After a brief executive session the sen
ate adjourned.
