Fottsvillc, July 12. Tbo ticket nominated by the Democratic convention whllo It Is satisfactory as to tbo character of tho men composing its mako up, docs not Kl vo so much satlsfac'ion geographically. Tho farm Inn districts In tho county north and south of I'ottsviUo aro not represented on tbo ticket. Tho Bryanitcs aro very Indignant over their tnru down by thogold Democrats in the convontton, and aro talking of making an open revolt this fall. Tho two freo silver newspapers of tho county served uotlco that they would not support tho ticket during tho coming campaign if Wadlingcr was nomi nated and tho Chicago platform was not endorsed. Thcro Is now talk among tho freo siUcrilcs of nominating an Independent ticket. Whether this threat will bo carried out can not as yot bo definitely learned. It seems altogether probable, from the sentiments ex pressed by prominent disappointed Bryan men, tbatoitlieran independent tickot will bo put up or tbo silvor Democrats will throw their strength toward electing tho Republi can ticket. Tho freo silver men feel that tho Dartv should bo punished for. ignoring thorn in Monday's convention, and they may cut every gold Democrat on tho tickot. Tbo slight cast upon tho Bryaultcs was pre meditated, it is said. When tho stand nc committed mot to select a chairman recently. rroo suvor resolutions wore submitted, but thoy were tabled.

FRUITLESS ARREST MADE TO-DAY Man Taken Into Custody For Causing a Wreck of Coal Cars a Week Ago, Bat the Evidence of Connec tion Failed. A vigilant nnd ceaeloM campaign is being onductcil by alt tho railroad companies for tho detection and arrest of any person at tempting or abetting tho wrecking of trains and no case, no matter how trivial, escapes the attention of tho polico employed by tho companies. Prompt arrest and swift punish ment is tbo keyuoto that has been sounded from tho headquarters and offenders can ex pect to receive little mercy. In lino with this policy unarrest was tnado n town to-day for a wreck that took placo on tho Kobinoor siding of tho Philadelphia and Boading Railway last Thursday night.

Tho fellow had a largo stone in his hand and mado a taunting gesture at the witness. The latter, however, could not identify Lucah as tbo party, ana tbo caso was dropped so far as the prisoner was concerned. MOTHER AND SON " REUNITED.

The July Letter il tlm Anthracite Coal Operators' Association Ju.t Imiuril. There have been few changes in anthracite conditions during tho post mouth. Tho tldo- wator market showed llttlo activity: ship ments to New England points declined slightly ; the movement to lino points also decreased excepting in the commencement of deliveries for municipal contracts, and there was a steady increase In shipments to tho ost. Prices remained firm at all poiata and, li llo slight oonrvrsiotis havo undoubtedly been made in some instances, they havo not leen sullicleut to disturb tho general touoof tho market. An exceptionally tavorablo featurotbus far ha been tho refusal of tho larger companies to mako extensive contracts for future do livery at prevailing prices. In tho past this practlco has douo muro than anything else to destroy the confidence ol buyers and prevent realisation of any advanco In prices which was announced. Of course, contracts havo bcon taken for manufacturing establishments and municipalities, but deliveries for tho domestic trado are well In hand aud will como under the advanco of 23 cents per ton announced for July 1. Owing to tho largo tonnago produced in Juno, there has bcon somo hesitation on tbo part of buyers who feared that It might bo thrown upon tho market and break prices. This has tended to keep tho sellers from realizing tho full circular and will undoubt edly afreet July prices. It may bo fairly said, howover, that this condition has been unavoidable. Judging by tho present con sumption movement It is doubtfnl If the companies will bo ablo to initio tbo full market requirements during tho noxt six months, and to prevent any serious shortage they havo over-produced In June, and cardlod the excess at their various storaco nointa. There is the best of reasons for assuming that this coal will bo hold until tho market actually requires it, as tho evident intention f the companies is to maintain tho market in a firm position and keep prices whore tho bcnoflts of tho present advanco may bo realized and thoso of tho prospective increase in September and October secured.
