MILLIONS FOR COAL LAND.
Great Coal Tract in Indiana County Will
be Taken Up at Last.
Tho Indiana corrospondunt to the
rittsbuTf? Difimlrh, undi-r ditto t)f
March 2 my : Fivu hundred Indiana
county farmers will bo tnudo lmppy
within tho next fortnight by tho receipt
of notices thnt their conl holdings,
totaling (10,000 acres, will bo liiken up
May 1. This means tho distribution of
about $2,500,000, tho withdrawn! of
appeals In KM) stilts asking annulments
of options and tho developments of a
vast tract of territory which hns been
tied up by the recent financial string
ency Bnd consequent litigations.
It Is aluost threo years since Colonel
John tocOaughey, of Indiana, acting
for Eastern capitalists, secured options
on tho greator part of tho 0,000 acres
which lie in Blacklick, Center, Young,
Conemnugh and nurrell townships In
Indiana county and South Hend town
ships, Armstrong county.
It was taken up at HO per aero and
two or three sets of. purchasers have
been after It. Finally H. E. Cartwrlght,
E. D. Carter, W. II. Stamey Bnd J. C.
King secured control of the entire field
through option made, by means of
powers of attorney. For months tho
farmers waited patiently for some
sight of tho $10 per acre, and thon, as
other purchasers were seeking tho coal,
they tried to terminate tho powers of
attorney, only to find that these docu
ments were drawn in such a way as to
prevent any such action.
Angered at the fact that they were
unable to sell their land, although
offered even higher prices than $40 per
acre, tho farmers handed together and
entered over 100 suits to terminate the
powers of attorney and options. Judgo
White decided In their favor, but tho
syndicate appealed to tho Supreme
Court, whore tho cases havo not yet
come to argument.
The Inability to raiso tho funds neces
sary to take up the coal Is tho only
known reason for the syndicate's delay
In tho matter, and this hns been remov
ed. Local agent two woeks ago receiv
ed notice to hurry tho work of clearing
tho title", as n solution nf the dlfllenltles
na in prospect, and also to look up
Colonel MeOaoghey, who hail none
West. Ho arrived homo a few days ago.
Further advices In regard to the
mutter were received yesterday to tho
effect that tho farmers should bo noti
fied within tho coming week to pr pare
for final disposition of tho coal. No
dilVculty Is expected In having the suits
in tho Supremo Court settled, lis '.he
solo desire of tho owners hns b en to
get their coal on the market and sold.
Tho conl Itself Is of tho Upper anil
Lower Freeport volns, tho former ft to
H feet thick and the latter 4 to fij feet
thick tho strata being remarkably
uniform in depth and clenr of flute.
Tho Carter-Carlwrlght syndicate's local
agent, M. E. Shnughness, to-dny ad
mitted that tho matter was practically
closed, but refused to give any details.
Robbed the Orave.
A startling Incident Is narrated by
John Oliver, of Philadelphia, as follow:
"I was In an awful condition. My skin
was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue
coated, pain continually In back and
sides, no appetite, growing weaker day
by day. Three physicians had given
mo up. Then I was advised to use Elec
tric Bitters; to my great joy, tho first
bottle made a decided Improvement. I
continued their use for threo woeks,
and am now a well man. I know they
robbed the grave of another victim."
No one should fall to try them. Only
T0 cents, guaranteed at II. Alex Stoke's
drug store.
