Postmaster General Wanamaker lias definitely in mind to present to the next Congress a scheme by which, when a given sum is asked for, for free delivery in any community, the sum being cal culated on the area to be served, the population and other such items. It is almost a certainity that a sum almost if not quiet as large will be added to the net earnings of the office in question. Even if the free delivery does not quite pay for itself, it is likely that the Post master General will ask Congress to consider the question whether the rural districts of the country may not properly expect tliis slight contribution to their postal facilities where in so many quarters they have up to the present time been considered so limited. It is already an established fact that the increased reve nue in those otlices where the free deliv ery experiment is on trial almost pays for the increased expenditure, and it'is hoped by judicious management that in the average the experiment will entirely pay for itself, as some of the offices more than do that. In Trouble Again. Father Matliias De M. Yodvzsus, a former pastor of St. Kasimer's Polish Church at this place, is still making trou ble for himself and other people. After leaving here lie was stationed at St. George's Lithuanian Church, Williams burg, but was suspended a few months ago by Bishop Lougbiin, of Brooklyn. He remained id Williamsburg, and last Thursday night, after a somewhat too free indulgence in drink, be broke open a house that lie owns nnd demand ed the rent. His form of procedure frightened the family and an officer was summoned. Father Yodyzsus, who is a large strong man, attacked the officer, but a solid blow with a night stick put him under partial control, and a pair of handcuffs finished the dangerous part of the work of subduing the turbulent priest, who was taken to the station house. When iiis case was called in the Police Court next morning he sent a physician's certificate saying lie was too ill to attend, and the ease was ad journed. Preparing for Large 11 u>,iness. The coal trade is hopeful, but as yet not much quickening of business is dis cernible. The companies are getting into position to move the large tonnage anticipated for the autumn, and the present intention is to mine for Sep tember at the rate of 3,009,000 tons for the month, although this amount may be increased at another meeting of the presidents, to be held about the middle of the month, should the improved out look of the trade be thought to then warrant it. The total amount of anthracite coal sent to market for the week ending August 29, as reported by the several carrying companies, was 752,123 tons, compared with 825,259 tons in the corres ponding week last year, a decrease of 71,130 tons. The total amount of an thracite mined thus far in the year 1891 was 24,740,730 tons, compared with 21,- 907,085 tons for the same period last year, an increase of 2,779,045 tons.— Ledger. Ilelegales-fit-Large. Each party lias presented eighteen candidates for the office of delegate-at large to the proposed Constitutional Con vention. The total number to be elected us delegates-at-large is twenty-seven, but each citizen can vote for buteiglitecn, so that eighteen of one party are reasonably certain to he elected and nine of the other party. The vote for delegates to the Constitutional Convention is likely to run with the popular current for other Btate offices, and the party that elects the Auditor General and State Treasurer will probably elect eighteen of the Con stitutional Convention delegates. Should the contest in the State be close, the majority party may happen to elect less than eighteen Convention delegates. Unless the Republicans shall have a majority of some thousands in Pennsyl vania oil their general ticket, it is safe to assume that Mr. Powderly will be one of t he defeated candidates of that party, and it is possible that Mr. Wear, the colored candidate on the ticket, mny be cut by a considerable number of its party voters. Mr. Wear is one of the commer cial colored politicians of the State. He has been on the electoral ticket, but as the party then voted for its candidate for President rather than for its electors, none could afford to strike individuals from the ticket. Now, however, Mr. Wear is standing on his own bottom, ami it is quite likely that he will fall consi derably short of the full Republican vote cast. Mr. Powderly must face the opposition of a very large element of the Republi can party that is not in sympathy with the general views of the knights of Labor; and it is now certain that he will be opposed by a large number of labor voters who are utterly disgusted with his disgraceful trade with Quay, by associat j ing himself politically with the leaders who aro opposed to a convention, and j bitterly opposed to every phase of honeßt ballot reform.— Phila. Times. FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1891. COUNCIL MEETING. Eleven Proposal* Received to Lay Sewer Pipes—Other ltiisiness.

The street committee reported that they had visited the horough solicitor in regard to filing municipal liens against properties whose owners neglected to comply with the sidewalk ordinance, and that the liens were now ready and would be filed this week. The street commissioner complained that Joseph Johnson refused to put in a sidewalk on his Front Street property, claiming that the water from Pine Street overflows on his property. The street committee were instructed to examine the place and report what is required.

An Old Man Attempt* Suicide. 1 Joseph Mecher, an aged resident of Scranton, attempted suicide on Tuesday. When seen by Constables Bernard and Davis, the old man had his coat of, his , shirt-sleeves rolled up, and near-by were his bat, pipe and pocket-book. The two I I men approached him as silently as pos sible, and were startled to see streams of i blood flowing profusely from his arms. They seized him and found he had sev ered the arteries of his fore-arms. They bound his wounds, though he struggled ; fiercely to free himself and demanded in broken English that they release him. 1 j He was removed to Lackawanna llos | j pital,where his death is hourly expected. After the Saloon Men. The Lehigh Coal and Navigation Com pany is evidently in earnest in endeavor ing to prohibit the sale of liquor in Lans ford. There are twelve licensed houses jin the place. Four of the proprietors i have agreed to quit the business in com i pliance with the company's recent notice, j The company's attorney instituted suits of ejectment against the other eight, and the sheriff has served the writs. The company's action is based on a clause in the title deed for each lot in Lansford, prohibiting the sale of liquor on the premises, and stipulating tlfat if this clause is violated the property shall re rent back to the company. BASE BALL A very exciting game was played at the park on Monday between the home club and Jeanesville. The contest ter minated abruptly in Freeland's ninth inning by Jeauesville's refusal to con tinue the play, they claiming that the umpire was not giving them a square deal. There was no one out when the trouble began and the score was 13 to 12 in favor of the visitors. Brady took his base on called balls and Welch was at hat. Without any apparent reason .Sim mons took oil his mask, walked over to the grand stand where Manager Haydon was sitting and told him it was useless to continue the game, as they could not get justice. Haydcn told him to con tinue the play and while they were dis cussing the matter Jeanesville players began leaving the field. Brady, with an eye to business, went around the bases and tied the score. Jeanesville, how ever, was steadfast in its determination to act dishonorably, and Umpire Bonner declared the game forfeited to Freeland, 9to 0. From the beginning excitement ran high, the large attendance from the South Side making the admirers of each club about equal in numbers. By their own friends and visitors from other towns the Jeanesville players were de nounced for their ungentlemanly con duct, and the boisterous actions of those who accompanined them were very unbe coming throughout the game. The de cisions of Mr. Bonner were conceded by all to be impartial, which is far more than can be said of the men who acted in the same capacity for Jeanesville. Mr. Fulda, after making two outrageous decisions on bases, retired in the second inning, and was succeeded by a person named Morton. This individual gave un exhibition of roasting, the like of which has never been equalled on any diamond. Schmear went in the box for the visitors, but had to give way to J. Monaghan in the third. The latter threw a fair game, but his pitching was offset by Simmons, who kept up a con tinual kick. Anderson pitched four innings, and as the score then was 9 to 1 in favor of Freeland, he retired and O'Hara took his place. He was wild and could not get proper control of the ball, the result being that twelve runs were scored in the next three innings. In the eighth lie was replaced by Welch, who finished the game.

On Sunday afternoon Freeland and Wilkes-Barre played one of the finest games seen at the park for some time. The clubs were about evenly matched, both having the same number of hits, hut in fielding Freeland had the best of it, though their errors were made at critical stages of the game, and two of them were responsible for four runs. The field work was especially fine, the fly catches of McGeehan, O'Donnell, McGeady and Sylvis being very good. Wilkes-Barre was more fortunate in bunching their hits and with the assist ance of the errors mentioned won in the seventh inning, when they scored four runs. Notwitstanding the rivalry exist ing between the teams the game was (ilayed with the most good-natured feel ing shown by the audience and players. Freeman was to have pitched for the visitors, but he missed the train and Swartman did well as a substitute. Brady's fine playing was the principal feature. In the third inning he was badly cut about the face while sliding to second, but continued in the game and played well. The score: FREELAND. WILKKB-UAHKE. It. H. O. A. E. It. H, o. A.

They sent to Williarasport for Hayes, of the Demorest, but he was unable to come as his club needed him. Gormley was offered his own price to throw here, but Tamaqua was also playing. At 10 A. M. Freeman was telegraphed for, and guar anteed $lO and expenses, but Monday was a big day in Wilkes-Barre, and Jimmy Brennan could not spare him from behind the bar. I I I Manager Barnie, of the Baltimore As sociation Club, wants to play an exhibi tion game here on October 4or 11. His term are high, but he will probably be here on one of those dates. I I I At West Side Park, Wilkes-Barre, the Senators, of Larksville, were defeated by the Young America Club, of Pittston, on Friday. The score was 7 to 3, and the victors won the prize of SIOO, besides the gate receipts, which were only $32. I I I Tamaqua batted hard on Monday and scored seventeen runs off Pitcher Fox, who threw for the Pottsville Ivy Leaf team. The latter failed to score a run off Gormley.
