AMONG THE POLITICIANS.
CANDIDATES MAKING READY FOR TO
MORROW'S FRAY.
I-ooks aH If There Would he Several
Cloho Contests for Nominations—Com
ment* from Other Papers—Republicans
to Meet Next Monday.
The Democratic convention of this
county will be held to-morrow at Music
Hall, Wilkes-Barre. There is no telling
yet how the ticket will look. For con
gress it is conceded that McGinty has the
inside track of Billy Hines, and the
little lighting senator will have to return
to his law practice, unless he manages to
receive the nomination for his old office.
This, however, is not likely to happen,
although there is some kind of a scheme
on foot which looks as though that result
might he brought about. The senatorial
convention is always held at 10 A. M.,
just before the big fight opens, and it
was called for that hour this year, but the
time has since been changed to 7 P. M.
This would compel all the lower end
and several of the upper end delegates
to remain there over night or miss tho
convention. It is alleged the change
was made in order to give II ines a chance
at the senatorial plum if lie failed to
defeat McGinty, but a very large kick
was started on Saturday and unless the
convention is called again to meet at the
original hour there will be two conven
tion and probably two candidates. J.
ltidgway Wright, present chairman of
the county committee, will get tho nomi
nation if nil the delegates are in attend
ance at the meeting.
The battle between English and
Walters for sheriff will be a hot one.
Tho Newsdealer is fighting English hard,
and will probably bolt if he and llines
are nominated. There are other candi
dates, but the interest is centered on the
two named.
For recorder of deeds George W.
Brumheller, of Sugarloaf township, and
Michael C. Russell, of Edwardsville, are
in the* lead. The nomination, however,
depend on the section from which
the candidate for sheriff will come. If
English is chosen Russell will drop out
of the race, and should Walters win
Driimheller will stand no chance.
It is likely the Republicans will nom
inate Geo. 11. Troutman, of Hazleton,
as their candidate for senator. If
Wright is his opponent they will work
the new county issue in the lower end
and expect to make a clean sweep upon
that question. They may strike a snag,
however, on the North Side, as the peo
ple here nre not yet dead in love with
"Hauls county." Tho opposition here
is not quite so strong as a few years ago,
but the voters, both Democrats and Re
publicans, are becoming tired of the
everlasting bossing they get from Ilazle
ton at every election. In looking over
the field the Lender sizes it up about
correctly in the following:
If Troutman should be the nominee,
as at this writing appears likely, ho will
bo supported 011 the new county issue,
by some Hazleton and Hazle county
Democrats, but he will on the same issue
lose many Republican votes in White
llaven, the farming districts and part of
Foster. The new county project is not
as popular as it used to be in the lower
end. The making of Hazleton a city
lias hurt it even witli many Ilnzlo
tonians, who feel now that when they
voted for that change they virtually
"bought a pig in a poke," and who, with
their recent experience, would not vote
that way again. Besides there is no
love lost between Troutman and the
Kline faction, which is strong enough
to make it unsafe to sneeze at it.
' The Republican will elect delegates on
Saturday evening to the legislative con
vention to be held next Monday at
Union Hall, Hazleton. Hon. Wiiliara
R. Jeffrey will be chosen unanimously,
and all the delegates need to do is to go
through the mere formality; of a nomin
ation. As the party is united through
out tho district JefTery will not have any
disaffection to contend with, and will go
jiefore the people on tho record he made
at the last session.
Colonel P. F. Lynch was interviewed
the other day by a reporter of the Wilkes-
Ilarre Times, and here is what he is re
ported to have said. The reporter asked
questions and received answers as fol
lows:
"Colonel, there's a rumor afloat that
the Lynches and Lenahans have com
bined in the interest of Hines. What
do you know about it?"
"You may put it down as dead certain
that there's one Lynch that isn't in anv
such combine, and hestands before you,"
and the colonel stretched himself up at
full lenght.
"You still believe that McGinty lias
the inside track for the congress nomin
ation?" said the scribe.
"I don't conjecture anything about it.
' I know it. And I know another thing
too. Shonk will lie the man chosen 011
the other side," and the colonel looked
as if he meant what he said.
"But Shonk's closest friends all say
that such a thing is impossible. That
George won't have it under any consid
eration."
"That's all right. But I'll tell you
what I'll do. I'll wager you a dollar or
a hundred dollars that Shonk is the
next Republican candidate for congress."
As the scribe was not in betting mood
he didn't accept.
Leaving this gentleman the reporter
hunted up another, a sharp-witted poli
tician, who is noted for his conspicious
ability to solve political problems.
"Who is likely to secure the Republi
can nomination for congress?" was
"George Washington Shonk. I know
they say he is not a candidate. But my
dear sir, don't you see into the little
scheme? It wouldn't do for George to
declare himself a candidate. That would
lead to his being overhauled everywhere
by clamorous beggars who would give
him no rest. Again. It would also give
Jiis enemies in his own party the oppor-
tunity of combining against him. When
the convention gets together Shonk's
name will be suddenly sprung, tho dele
gates will know what that means, and
the whole gang will go with a rush to
George. That's the programme and you
see if it isn't carried out to the letter,"
and the gentleman w inked significantly.
FOR THE DEBATE.
Two Literary Societies Will Discuss tlie
Merits of a Protective Tarift'.
At the last meeting of the Catholic
Young Men's Literary Institute the fol
lowing members were selected to repre
sent ii in the debate at Scranton with
the Green Ridge Society: Jas. F.
Sweeney, A. M. McNulty, Jas. A.
O'Donnell, John D. Herron, Daniel
Marley and Charles Gallagher. The
date of the debate will bo selected by
the Lackawanna society, and will be
some time in September or October. Tho
question to be discussed is: "Resolved,
That a protective tariff is in lino witli
national progress, advances the best in
terest of the citizen, and is preservative
of the harmony that should exist among
nations."
The resolution is one that now com
mands national interest, and as the Free
land society has chosen the negative
side of the subject it will bo handled in
an able manner. The debaters are pre
paring themselves for the contest by
reading the best literature of both sides
of the question. There are several free
traders among the members of the so
ciety, and when they back up their
views with a firm belief that they are
right their arguments are bound to con
vince the judges that the resolution is
not in keeping with modern statesman
ship.
It is very probable that a prize of some
kind, besides the glory of a victory, will
be added to the contest. A silver cup
lias been spoken of, but it is not finally
decided. Rev. P. J. McManus has the
Lackawanna society in charge, and tho
Freeland society is receiving instructions
from Rev. F. P. McNally. A friendly
rivalry exists between the two organiza
tions and their tutors, and the whole
Scranton diocese is becoming interested
in the approaching battle.
Some time in November a drama,
"Waiting for the Verdict," will be pro
duced at the opera house by the members
assisted by several young ladies of Free
land and Drifton. Ther are eighteoen
characters in tho cast, and after tho de
bate is settled the play will bo taken up
and studied.
Swindling tlie Undertakers.
A cunning swindler has been operat
ing in this region for several days, but
has not yet arrived in Freeland. His
hobby is to work the undertakers. The
fellow called at Undertaker Klein's in
Wilkes-Barre, and after relating a tale
of woe, ordered sent to Bear Creels a
coffin in which to bury his wife. In
payment he gave Klein, whose bill
amounted to S3O, a check on F. Y. llock
afellow & Co., for $32.10, receiving tho
difference in cash. When Klein pres
ented the check he found the fellow had
no account in the bank. A like trick
was tried 011 a White Haven undertaker,
but failed although the goods ordered, a
coffin and a half-dozen chairs, were tak
en as far as the station, where the under
taker was told of the fruitless trip made
by Klein the day previous.
Henry C. Melber. an undertaker in
Mauch Chunk, was also swindled. The
Btranger said his name was It. D. Ritter
and that he resided at Lehigh Tannery.
With tears in his eyes be said his wife
had been suddenly stricken with heart
disease and was now lying a corpse at
the Tannery. Ritter arranged for the
coffin and purchased half-dozen chairs
from the undertaker. He then asked
for his bill, which amounted to S3O.
Ritter produced a check for $12.18. It
was drawn by D. W. Miller on the Sec
ond National Bank, of Wikes-Barre,
and indorsed by R. D. Ritter. The
undertaker gave the difference, SO.IB, in
cash to his customer and the latter de
parted. Melber proceeded to the Tan
nery with the coffin and upon arrival
there was informed that 110 one was dead
and that no such person as Ritter lived
there.
Work for Judges and Juries.
Commenting on the coming criminal
court the Wilkes-Barre ltecord says:
The summer vacation practially ends on
September 0, when the grand jury meets.
There nre nearly 300 new case 3 to come
before that body. Wben to these are
added the cases leftover from last court
it will be seen that the district attorney
and his assistants will have to hustle if
they expect to clear the dock at the Sep
tember session. The great majority of
these cases are of a trivial nature, but
there are the usual number of homicide
cases. Carmen Ilucci will be tried for
killing Andro Anko at Tomhicken; John
Fisher for shooting John Washington
dead in Ashley, and Jacob Gormer, of
Nanticoke, for tlie murder of Mike Mof
rey, who was caught stealing fruit in his
orchard. These, with the hundreds of
lesser cases, will make September a busy
month in court.
Opening the Hull Season.
Division 19, A. 0. 11., expects to have,
on September 23, the largest ball ever
held at the opera house. The committee
in charge has received assurances from
tlie Hazleton and Eckley divisions that
the members of these branches will all
attend, and several of the county officers
of the order have promised to be there.
Tho division has 140 members, and is
composed almost entirely of young men
who are familiar with running successful
balls. The fact that this is the first ball
of the season will also induce many to
attend.
Qulgloy Brothers Beturn.
Robert and George Quigley, of Par
sons, the well-known dancers and com
edians, have returned home to spend
eeveral weeks. They came direct from
Denver, and have been playing engage
ments in all the principal cities along the
Pacific slope and in the West. They
have not been home for nearly two
years.— Neicstlealer,
FREELAND, LUZERNE COUNTY, PA., AUGUST 29, 1892.
JONES WON THE FIGHT
AWARDED TO "STRONG BOY" BY
THE REFEREE.
Three Good Rounds Were Fought When
LandmeHKer Claimed a Foul—lt Wan
Not Allowed and lie Refused to Con
tinue the llattle.
Nearly 300 people paid one dollar each
to witness the fight between William
Jones, of Freeland, and Lewis I.and
messer, of West Hazleton, at the opera
house on Saturday evening. The sport
ing fraternity of the coal regions was
well represented, Hazleton, Wilkes-
Barre, Mt. Carmel and Shenandoah
sending largo delegations. Early in the
evening the crowds began gathering in
largo numbers, and by 8 o'clock the
streets were filled. Everybody was un
decided as to what the result would be,
and many believed the whole alTair to
be a "fake." Wilkes-Barre anil Free
land sports favored Jones, while Upper
Lehigh and Hazleton backed Land
messer, and although each side had lots
of money there was not nearly as much
bet as was expected. At 9 o'clock the
opera houße was opened, and for two
hours the people gathered slowly. The
majority of the spectators were strangers
here, as the people of town firmly be
lieved there was a "sell" and refused to
pay the dollar admission.
Promptly at 11 o'cock Billy Evans, of
Hazleton, appeared on the stage with
the principles, whom he introduced.
John Schaller, of Hazleton, acted as se
cond for Landmesser, and Conrad Saur,
of the same place, was hottlo holder.
Billy Kernan, of Bethlehem, was second
for Jones, and John Houston, of Free
land, bottle holder. David E. Davis, of
Wilkes-Barre, was referee, and Ed,
Meehin, of Wilkes-Barre, was time-keep
er. Four-ounce gloves were used and
Marquis of Queensbury rules governed
the contest. After the introduction both
men steppen to the centre of the ring 011
the stage. Jones weighed 155 pounds,
and his opponent was four pounds heav
ier. Both men seemed to be in the best
of condition, but the Freeland man, be
ing four inches taller, made the finest
appearanco. Time was called and the
first round opened rather tamely.
Neither wished to force the fighting un
till they studied 0110 another a little bet
ter, A few blows were given and return
ed, aftef which they clinched. Neither
seemed any the worse when the three
minutes were up. Jones, however, ap
peared nervous, and cast several glances
toward the crowd, as if he expected an
attack from that quarter.
Thirty seconds of a rest were given
and the second round began with more
vigor. In a short time the audience was
satisfied that there was no fake in the
fight. The men came together several
times in quick succession, and while
breaking away Landmesser got one in
on Jones' ribs which sent "Strong Iloy"
to the lioor on his hips. He failed to
follow up tho advantage, and seemed
weakened considerably from the exer
tion, while Jones appeared as fresh as at
the start.
The third opened by Landmesser
going down, but he was up again in a
moment. The shock, however, had daz
ed him, and he sparred a short time for
wind. Seeing an opening he made for
Jones' neck, but missed, and was caught
on the return with Jones' left and imme
diately after with a back-banded blow
from the right. Landmesser dropped to
the floor and made a slow effort to arise.
He had readied his feet, but the hands
still were on the floor, while the time
keeper was counting the ten seconds and
Jones was waiting over him. One hand
jeft the floor and as the other was com
ing up Jones gave him two more. Time
was called, and Landmesser claimed
the fight on a foul, alleging that his
right hand was not off the floor when he
was struck.
The claim was not allowed, and when
time was called for the fourth round
Landmesser refused to continue, anil
the referee awarded the fight, including
the S2OO stakes and the gate money, to
"Strong Boy."
The audience clamored for more fight,
but the affair was over, and no more of
the principals was seen that night.
llefuiMHl to Sell.
When the battle was over a story leak
ed out that some of Jones' backers went
to him early in the evening and de
manded that he throw the fight to Land
messer. The latter, however, had noth
ing to do with this bargain, and Jones
also refused to enter any such game. It
is said that those who wanted him to
sell had placed all their money on the
Hazleton man, after drawing Jones into
the fight. After Jones refusing repeat
ealy to make the contest a "fake" he
was threatened with death when he
came on the stage, and this was the
cause of his nervousness in the first
round.
Before the fight took place he was de
serted by his strongest backers because
he refused to Bell, and with the public
suspecting him of intending to do that
very thing, he felt as if he did not have
a friend in the town. When the above
story got in circulation, and was con
firmed by subsequent events, the sym
pathy of the public underwent n change.
The Fighters Meet Again.
Lewis Landmesser felt sore at the re
sult of the contest, and all day yesterday
was trying to meet Jones to arrange an
other match. At 5.30 o'clock the two
men met again on Centre street, between
South and Main. A short argument
brought on hot words, and beforo any
one could interfere Jones struck Land
messer a terrific blow on the mouth,
knocking him to the middle of the
street. Friends prevented any further
public exhibition of this kind, and both
were hurried off in different directions.
JonoK SwnarH Out a Warrant.
At 0 o'clock "Strong Boy" swore out a
warrant against James and William
Oliver, of Highland, charging them with
threatening to kill him on Saturday
night. The warrant was given to Officer
McLaughlin, who brought them befere
Squire Buckley. The accused waived a
hearing and were placed under S2OO bail
each for their appearance at court,
Thomas Elliott becoming their bonds
man.
This ended the fight so far, and up to
7 o'clock last night the twonty-four hours
preceeding constituted one of the most
exciting days Freeland lias seen for a
long time.
FIVE POINTS DIVIDED.
TWO POLLING L'LUCES IN THE WOODSSITO
LLIHTRIVT—TLIOIR LLOUNDIIRLETI.
The commissioners appointed by the
court to divide the AVoodside election
district into two or more polling places
met at Condy O. Boyle's on Saturday
morning. After discussing the matter
they walked over the territory, and
finally decided to make two districts.
The North Woodside district comprises
all the territory of the present district
north of Luzerne street, from the west
ern boundary to Adams streets, includ
ing Birvanton, with the polling place at
Squire Johnson's office, Centre street.
The South Woodside district comprises
all that portion of the old district south
of Luzerne, from western boundary to
Adams street, and the southern boundary
of the present district, with the polling
place at Woodside school house.
This division was made in order to
give all the voters an opportunity to vote
at the next election, and after that it is
likely thftt another adjustment of boun
daries must take place, as all of the
North Woodside district and part of the
South Woodside is coming into the
borough. By tho time of the spring
election of 1893 these parts will be in
cluded in the borough, which must then
be divided into wards. The petition for
annexation will be presented to the
grand jury on Tuesday next.
PAY YOUR SUBSCRIPTION.
Subscribers can obtain the the TRIBUNE
for another year by paying one dollar
now. If your subscription expired last
month, or any time previous to that, or
if it will expire any time in the near fu
ture, send in a dollar and you will be
crediteil for one year from the date of
expiration. This offer was made when
the paper changed from a weekly to a
semi-weekly in order to give all an op
portunity to receive it another year at
its old rate. After Wednesday evening,
August 81, all subscriptions that ex
pired or commenced since the semi
weekly began will be charged at the
rate of $1.50 per year. A large number
of our subscribers have availed them
selves of the offer, but there are still
several who should give this their atten
tion. Payment before September 1 will
save them fifty cents, besides giving
their minds that peace which always
exists aftor paying the printer.
SHAMOKFN'S .SLASLIER.
Thomas Black became jealous because
his mothor gave his brother William j
permission to use the family carriage
and struck his mother, pulled a knife
on William, who escaped, and then !
leaped on his fathsr and cut him in the
head. Robert Harker, his brother-in
law, went to the rescue, but was cut
six times. Running up the street Black
slashed William Snyder, cutting his left
arm. He then barred himself in a room,
where the police captured him after a
lively struggle, beating him insensible
with clubs. Ilis father and Snyder are
not fatally injured, but Harker will
probably die, the knife having entered
near the kidneys.
HE CAN'T HUN THE LLOROUGLI.
Julius Crossit a Polander, who is in
the habit of running things to suit his
fancy at Birvanton, came down into the
borough at 10 o'clock last night and went
to the residence of Charles Boczkowski,
where lie began abusing every one that
came in sight. Mr. Boczkowski stood it
for a while, then put him out, when he
began a charge on the house with rocks.
The police were sent for and in a short
time they captured Crossit, who had an
other load of rocks on hand to charge
again. He was taken before the bur
gess for a hearing, and being unable to
meet the line imposed was sent to the
cooler for five days.
FOUND ILI AD IN THE WOODS.
While a number of boys were picking
berries in the woods between Tresckow
and Silver Brook on Friday afternoon
they came upon the dead body of a man.
The corpse was badly decomposed anil
had been lying there at least five or six
days. An examination revealed the
fact that he had been murdered and. rob
bed. The skull was crushed with a large
stone found near him and in the left
cheek was a bullet hole. The stomach
was horribly ripped up, as if cut by a
knife and presented a sickening appear
ance. His pockets were empty. The
coronerofSchuylkill county was notified.
