VOL. V. No. 27.
VETERANS IN SESSION.
GENERAL PALMER OPENS THE G. A.
R. ENCAMPMENT.
Over a Quarter of a Million Persons Re
view the Procession of Sixty Thousand
Veterans, AVliicli Took Seven liours to
Pass a Given Point.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.— The city is in a
perfect vortex of excitement over the
Grand Army encampment, and the bright
uniforms, the blaze of colors, the music of
numerous bands and the jostling, good
natured throngs to be found everywhere
only serve to add spice to the effervescent
scene. Some idea of the crowds brought to
the city may be gained from a knowledge
of the fact that the train on the Chesapeake
and Ohio railroad was run in twenty-seven
sections, some sections comprising fourteen
coaches.
Amid thunders of applause all along the
avenue mude sacred to them by the march,
nearly a generation ago, before their be
loved generals, with nearly thrice the
number cfT comrades, the gray old soldiers
who had saved the flag in 1861 and had
made it forever respected in 1805 marched
again yesterday, led by the survivors of the
valiant old Sixth Massachusetts, the first
to reach the goal in the patriotic race of
1861. The grand parade meant much to the
veterans, but it produced also a deep im
pression upon the 300,000 spectators as the
more than 60,000 heroes, some aged and
bent, swung proudly by for seven long
hours.
The Encampment Proper.
A pleasing feature of the march was the
choral tribute by school children of the
district at two points—3oo colored girls at
the corner of Third street and the avenue
and 500 white girls at the corner of Fif
teenth street. All bands ce.ased playing us
they passed these points, and the children
sang patriotic airs and old army songs.
The lowa department carried in the air
3,000 cornstalks, some of them nearly six
inches in diameter, and each man had an
ear of corn strapped to his back.
Night was even more glorious than the j
day. Shortly after dark the thousands
who lined the avenue while the parade was
in progress repaired to the vicinity of the j
monument. Here the elaborate display of
fireworks provided was made. It was a
magnificent show, in some respects uii
equaled, and was worthy of a place in the
programme of the day's events.
Succeeding the fireworks display there
was an electric illumination on a scale
never before attempted in this country.
Pennsylvania avenue, from the Capitol to
Seventeenth street, was ablaze with col
ored lights. Every available dynamo in
the city, public and private, was brought
into requisition.
The national encampment proper was
opened for business at noon today in Al
baugh's Opera house. A thousand dele
gates were in their seats when General
Palmer, commander in chief, rapped for
order. It was only a moment before abso
lute silence reigned, and then General
Palmer delivered his annual address. He
said:
Commander Palmer's Speech.
COMRADES—'The national encampment of the
Grand Army of the Republic brings together
representative soldiers from all over the loyal
land. Thero is scarcely a battlefield of that
groat civil contest but has its representatives
here today. Within its ranks are men of all
political parties and roligious croeds. The dif
ferences in rank whioh the army reflectod are
lost in the equalities of a free and common citi
zonship. The denominating thought is patri
otism. Itp principles appeal to patriots of every
name and party. It is peculiarly befitting that
we should meet once more in the beautiful
capital city of the nation, whoro the represent
atives of 65,000,000 freemen gather to enact
our laws, and to look backward over tho perils
surmounted and forward to tho growing great
ness of a redeemed land.
k These annual gatherings of men who rendered
loyal, devoted 4 and patriotic service to their
country in tho hour of peril, if they sorvo no
other purpose, will impress upon the minds of
tho rising generation a profounder and deeper
sonso of the perils through which wo passed to
preserve tho unity of the nation. Wo moot
with no desire to boast of our services in the
past. We cherish no feelings of auiinosity or
rovongo against tho men of tho south. I know
1 speak tho sentiments of every true soldier
when I say whatever pride wo have in tho past,
whatovor pride we brought back rrom tho bat
tlefields, we joyfully laid it asido upon ono altar
and gladly merged the titlo of soldier into a
greater one—that of American citizen.
A Protest Against "Sneers."
Tho precepts of this great order appeal to
the patriotism of every man who wore the
Union blue. Every Union soldier should give
it his influenco and support and wear at all
times tho badge of loyalty, tho bronze G. A. K.
button. This emblem is a silent protest against
"sneers" at the old veteran; it is tho honor
mark of the republic. It rivets attention to tho
fact that men still live who desorvo to bo ro
membored with whatever belongs to the pros
perity, liberty and renown of our country.
During my official term I have visited t wenty
flvo departments, responded to numerous invi
tations to reunions nnd public gatherings, re
quiring months of time and labor, traveling
nearly 40,000 miles, and my only regret is that
I was unable to meet with soveral departments,
as tbey met on the same date, and the places of
meeting were too far apart to reach them in
+ time. And notwithstanding 1 have given up
nearly the entire year to tho work of the order,
I feel that my efforts have lieen but feeble to
servo all my comrades and do justice to the
great office.
During my visit to the department encamp
ment in Augusta, Ga., I met many ox-Confed
erate soldiers from whom I receivod a cordia
grooting, and 1 ..believe that those who were
bravest in tho field have a greater love of jus
tice and right than those who remained in tho
rear in the hour of danger, and I was glad to
tako by the ha/id any brave Confederate sol
dier who acceptod the generous terms of tho
surrender at Appomattox, and today rospecta
tho flag of the nation as tho emblem of a re
united people and a reunited country.
Memoriul Day Memories.
With Memorial Day comes tho expression of
a nation's gratitude for the bravo men who
suffered death that their blood might seal tho
unity of the nation. The ceremony of strewing
the early flowers of spring upon tho graves of
tho men who laid down their lives for their
country is a beautiful and touching ono.
All strife ceases upon this day consecrated to
patriotism, and blind ambition halts in its
headlong career to pause at the graves of tho
nation's heroes and contemplate the greatness
of the cause for which they offered up their
.lives.
J If there is anything that softens the heart
and intensifies patriotism it is to stand ut the
graves of the men who sacrificed their lives
for their country. The American people hon
or the dead Union soldier, not because ho slew
so many of the foe, bnt because he gave up
even life itself in the performance of a duty.
Ho long as the observance of the day is kept in
all its genuineness and purity, not given up to
frivolity and amusement, it will impart to alia
truer sense of the obligations resting upon us.
Heaping what the living and the deud have
sown, we now enjoy the priceless blessings of
peace and prosperity to life and property.
When General Palmer concluded his ad
dress he wua cheered again and again by
the boys in blue, and when the applause
died out the reports of officers were de
clared in order.
SPLIT IN SCHUYLKILL.
Disappointed Democrats Form an Inde
pendent Party to Doom Ryon.
A number of prominent Democratic
politicians of Schuylkill county, terming
themselves the "Independent Judiciary
party," are making elaborate prepara
tions for pushing a vigorous campaign in
the interest of Hon. John W. Ryon, the
independent candidate for president
judge. Mr. Ryon and the present
judge, Hon. Cyrus L. Pershing, were
candidates for nomination for judge at
the Democratic county convention when
Judge Pershing was made the Demo
cratic nominee.
Several weeks ago Ryon secured the
required number of signers to have his
name put upon the county ticket, very
much to the surprise of the supporters
of Judge Pershing. For the past few
days meetings were held at Ryon's office
and promineut politicians from all parts
of the county were present and discussed
the issue. Among them were a num
ber of gentlemen who sat as delegates in
the convention. All expressed their
hearty accord with what they termed
the Independent Judiciary.
They have effected an organization
a made J. F. Dolphin, of Mahanoy
City, their chairman- A committee was
appointed to push a campaign in the in
terest of the Independent Judiciary with
all possible dispatch. As Ryon has a
strong following in the county the issue
is awaited with a great deal of interest
by Democrats and Repnblicans alike.
The First Annual llall of the A. O, H.
The first annual ball of Division 19,
A. O. H. of Freeland, will be held at
the opera house to-morrow evening.
Commencing to-day the committees
will begin the hall decorations, which
will equal anything seen here in that
line.
The fact that it is the first ball of the
season would alone be sufficient to make
it a success, but besides this it has many
other things in its favor to insure that
point.
Although scarcely over a year old
the division stands among the most
prominent in the county, and its mem
bership is composed almost entirely of
the young men of the parish.
The members of Division 20, of Eek
ley; Division 10, of Hazleton, and Divi
sion 6, of Audenried, accompanied by
their lady friends, have promised to at
tend, and a large number of tickets are
already sold in these places.
Every person attending the hall will
be presented with a neat programme,
filled with the latest round and square
dances. Gillespie's orchestra will sup
ply the music.
Deserting; the Ticket.
S. W. Sutliff, of Nanticoke, the Repub
lican candidate for recorder, has with
drawn from the Republican ticket and
from the tight.
The Republican county committee
met on Monday, and the first business
that came up was a letter from Sutliff,
asking the committee to consider his
name withdrawn from the ticket and
stating his reasons for so doing.
The reasons were not made public by
the committee, but it is understood that
Sutliff is chargrilled by not receiving the
nomination for sheriff after his tight
for it.
Very little comment was made by the
members of the committee present and
the resignation was accepted. It was
resolved to call another convention to
meet next Tuesday at 10 A. M. The
same delegates elected for the last con
vention to be eligible.
The committee then proceeded to elect
the remaining officers necessary. James
ll.Evans, of Edwardsville, was made
secretary, with Sheriff Robinson and
James Thomas as assistants. E. 11.
Chase was elected treasurer.
Junior Mechanics in Session.
The annual session of the state coun
cil of Pennsylvania Junior Order United
American Mechanics began at Easton on
Tuesday. There are 800 delegates pres
ent.
The report of the secretary showed
that the number of new councils orga
nized <lurin K the year has been 170, and
that there are 891 councils in the state at
the present time. The gain in member
ship during the year was 14,473 mem

the state up to date is over 80,000. The
average membership of each council is
ninety-eight.

FREELAND, LUZERNE COUNTY, PA., SEPTEMBER 22, 1892.
BIG DAY HERE.
Many Will Attn<l the Corner-Stone Lay
iug on Sunday Next.
All arrangements are now completed
for the laying of the corner stone of .St.
John's Hungarian Catholic church,
which takes place on Sunday next. The
building is already considerably advan
ced in the course of erection, and will
help to beautify the lower portion of the
town. The members of the congregation
propose to make the event a most auspi
cious one, and from the responses re
ceived from the Hungarian and other
Catholic societies of the region Sunday
will see a large number of visitors here.
At 11 A. M. mass will be read at St.
Kasimer's Polish Catholic church, which
is only a few doors below the new build
ing. At 1 P. M. the societies intending
to participate in the parade will be in
line, ready to move. The order of parade
will be the same as published in the
TRIBUNE on the 12th inst. The route

On Sunday evening about fifty prom
inent Catholics of Scranton met to con
sider what shall be done by the laymen
in connection with the golden jubilee of
Bishop O'Hara on December 21. W. A.
Grady was elected chairman, J. C. Mc-
Andrews, secretary, and T. F. Leonard,
treasurer. The priests of the diocese
have already began their part of the
programme, and the laymen will work
in conjunction with them.
Rev. J. A. O'Reilly, rector of St.
Peter's cathedra!, gave an outline of the
plan of the celebration. He told what
stejis the clergymen had taken, after
which he called for an expression from
the meeting.
All the speakers were in favor of afit
ting observance of the jubilee by the
Catholics of the diocese. The following
outline was suggested and will be pre
sented at another general meeting to he
held this evening:
To present a congratulatory letter to
the bishop.
To tender him a public reception.
To hold a night parade to bo partici
pated in by all Catholic societies.
To tender him a banquet.
That means be devised to raise suffi
cient funds for these purposes.
It is expected that Cardinal Gibbons
and a number of distinguished prelates
and priests from various parts of the
country will be present to participate in
the bishop's jubilee.
Disbarring an Attorney.
Judge Woodward on Monday handed
down on opinion in the interesting case
of Sinucker & Co., of New York, against
R. H. Wright, of Hazleton.
Wright is an attorney and was engaged
by the firm to make collections. He
retained a sum of money he claimed as
attorney's fees and the firm asked the
court to disbar him. The opinion is as
follows:
Smucker & Co. vs. R. 11. Wright:
Rule to show cause why the defendant
shall not be disbarred as an attorney.
While we are unable to rate the conduct 1
of the defendent with that high rule of j
action which should regulate and control
a member of the bar in all his relations !
to his clients we are not persuaded that;
wo should be justified in making this
rule absolute. If a jury upon a full trial
of the case should find against the defen
dent upon the question involved in the '
controversy it might then become our
duty so to do. The rule is discharged.—

Coal Goes Up In the Wyoming Valley.
The price of coal, chestnut, stove and
egg, has been raised from $2.25 to $3 at
the breakers throughout the Wyoming
valley. Never before has the price
been changed to local consumers. No
matter how great the changes in price
delivered at the seaboard or western
points, it has remained the same at the
collieries.
The increase means the addition of
many thousand dollars to the incomes of
the mining companies, all of which will
come from the pockets of those who live
in the mining towns but who do not
work in the mines.
It is rumored that the coal companies
of this section are also contemplating
an advance in prices for their customers.
Such a move would fall heaily upon
those who have not yet put in their win
ter supply.
Mistaken for a Coon.
John David, a seventeen-year-old boy
of Wanamie, ia now a patient in the
Wilkes-Barre hospital, suffering from a
singular accident which happened him
a few days ago. David went out in the
woods for wild grapes, and soon came I
across a large vine heavily loaded,
which was entwined around a tree that
stood high in the air.
lie climed the tree, pulling of the
grapes and tilling a small bucket he had
with him. While he was doing this !
F rank James, of Alden, came along on
his way home after an unsuccessful I
hunting trip, and saw at a distance an
object tangled up in the grape vine !
which he took for a coon. Not giving !
a second look he blazed away and a J
shower of shot struck the grape-picker. |
He ran towards the tree for his game,
but to his surprise he found young
David lying on the ground with his face
and head bleeding profusely and tilled '
with gun shot. One shot had penetrat
ed the right eye and the lad was uncon
scious.
The huntsman carried the young lad
to his home and told that it was alia mis
take, that he had taken him for coon.
David is now suffering much pain with
his face, head and a portion of his body
swathed in bandages. The sight of the
right eye is completely lost, and that of
the other endangered.
YOUNG MAN KILLED.
A Chain Break** at No. O Upper Lehigh
and CaiiHct* an Accident.
Joseph Ward, a son of Patrick Ward,
of South Heberton, was instantly killed
at the bottom of No. 6 slope, Upper Le
high, on Tuesday between 1 and 2
o'clock. He was employed as a "pat
cher."
The driver with whom he worked was
preparing to take a trip of empty cars
away from the foot of the slop. Upon
starting out he found the last car was
not coupled to the others, and he stop
ped and went back to push it up to the
trip."
While doing this the chain of the
hoisting rope broke at some distance up
the slope. The car which was going up
immediately began to descend with ter
rific speed, and upon reaching the bot
tom struck young Ward, causing instant
death.
Anthony Reilly, of Upper Lehigh,
another boy who was standing near,
was also hurt, but his injuries are not
serious.
The deceased was aged 17 years and
4 months. The funeral will take place
from the residence of his father at South
Heberton to-morrow morning. Mass
will be read at St. Ann's church at 9 A.
M., after which the remains will be in
terred in St. Ann's cemetery.
The family of which Joseph Ward
was a member has been very unfortu
nate during the past two years. In that
time Patrick, Jr., who was employed on
the Reading Railroad in New Jersey,
was killed while at work. He was fol
lowed shortly after by his brother John,
who died at his residence here. Then
the mother of the family took sick and
also died.
