After the election it was seen that the
vote of Jeffrey and Reilly for the legis
lature would be exceedingly close. The
latter hail been claiming a majority of
17, taking his figures from those procured
on election night by a reporter of a
llazleton morning paper. These figures,
however, were incorrect in at least half
a dozen districts, and when the vote was
summed up at Wilkes-Barre, as given by
the election district officers, Jeffrey was
found to be 4 ahead.
Relying upon the accuracy of the
llazlcton newspaper Reilly thought lie
discovered evidence of fraud in the re
turns made by the Freeland borough
judge. He claimed his vote here was 95
and Jeffrey's 215, and swore out an afli
davit, charging them with tampering il
legally with the returns. He said a bul
letin had been posted outside the polling
place with the above figures on, and
that the returns gave him only 82 votes
and Jeffrey 216.
The court then issued attachments on
the hoard, which was composed of John
1). Herron judge, Patrick McLaughlin,
Jr., and John M. Powell, Ist, inspectors,
two Democrats and one Republican, to
appear with the ballot box in order that
Reilly's claim could be investigated.
The election officers went to Wilkes-
Barre on Friday morning, and Judges
Rice and Lynch broke the seal of
the ballot box. The votes and every
thing pertaining to the election were
produced and the count was made. The
vote of the whole ticket, from the presi
dential electors down, was found to cor
respond exactly with the returns made
by the board.
Five ballots, however, were laid aside,
and over these the judges held a consul
tation. The election board had given
two eacli to Reilly and Jeffrey and
thrown one out as defective. The court
decided that, although the voters' inten-
tions seemed in four of them to be as
the board had counted, they should be
classified as defective. One was given
to (filler, the Prohibition candidate.
The return made by the board was:
Jeffrey, 216; Reilly,B2; Hi)ler,4. Judges
Rice and Woodward, after opinions from
counsel on five ballots, made it: Jeffrey,
214; Reilly, 80; Hiller, 5. No evidence
of any kind could be discovered to prove
tliat there was anything illegal in the
count or that a bulletin with other figures
had been given to the public, and Judge
Rice, in making this statement, compli
mented the Freeland board upon the
thorough and complete method used in
counting and the fair and impartial
manner they pursued in regard to what
might be considered defective ballots.
On Friday evening preparations were
made by Mr. Reilly to have the 11 axle
ton fourth ward board taken to Wilkes-
Barre on the same charge, but all pro
ceeding were suddenly dropped next
day. rn that district Jeffrey received
24 votes and Reilly 161, but the latter
thought he should have had 167.
Two Fatal Accidents.
James C'artwright, of South Ileberton,
was killed at Highland No. 1 on Friday
by a fall of top coal. The deceased
leaves a wife and eight children, six
boys and two girls, and one brother,

On Saturday afternoon another fatal
accident occurred at Highland, by which

with an empty car in the mines. He
was riding with the dirver on the front
end of the car, which was drawn by a
single mule.
The driver stepped off to turn a pair
of latches, which were a few yards
ahead,when he heard a faint cry, and
going back found the boy under the car.
After being taken out it was found that
the front wheel had passed over his
abdomen, from the effects of which he
died in about an hour.
He was removed to the residence of

FREELAND, LUZERNE COUNTY, PA., NOVEMBER 14, 1892.
JEDDO NEWS.
A social hop was held at Black Jeddo
one evening last week at which quite a
number of our young people attended.
It was a very tame affair when compared
with what it would have been a few
years ago when sociables of this kind
were carried out according to laws laid
down by the ancients.
It makes some of our boys feel a little
uneasy when they who were brought
lip on three days a week must now work
six, while they can hear the Drifton
whistle blowing for no work every other
day.
It was cold and lonesome here on
Tuesday for some of our men of author
ity. The old-time way of fixing up the
tickets and telling the "boys" how to
vote was not put in motion. The Baker
law killed it.
John Boyle moved his family from
here to Tamaqua, Schuylkill county, last
week.
31 rs. McGill, who has lived at old Jed
do for upwards of twenty years, moved
to Japan last week.
■ Paul Dunleavy made a business trip to
Wilkes-Barre last week.
A large number of our citizens went to !
Freeland on Saturday evening to take
in the Democratic jubilee, but were sad
ly disappointed when they found the
Freeland Democracy were not celebrat
ing that evening.
So far as can be learned no definite
time has yet been fixed for starting
work at No. 5.
A large number of young men from
Freeland, headed by one picture agent
of that place, came here the other even
ing to attend a social, but were disap
pointed, as there were none.
The members of the literary institute
held their meeting yesterday afternoon
and had an interesting time.
Peter Mcllugh purchased a fine horse
last week. We are sorry "Tucker" is
not here to pronounce judgment on it.
UPPER LEHIGH NOTES.
The only change made in the Central's
new timetable, which begins to-dav, is
that the train which left here for White
Haven at 5.16 P. M. will leave hereafter
at 5.22 P. M.
Mrs. Edward Reilly, who has been
lying dangerously ill for several weeks!
past, is slowly recovering.
T. A. Argust was in Wilkes-Barre, 011 '
business, last week.
William Dickson, of Treskow, was I
among the visitors here yesterday.
P. J. Ryan, of Treskow, was among 1
the visitors here last week.
John Brogan has been on the sick list
for several days past.
John A. Boyle is the guest of his
brother, I). J., for a few days.
P. B. Ferry made a trip to Allentown
on Tuesday.
George McGee has a little boy sick
with measles.
Night school has opened here and will j
continue for the winter, providing
scholars enough will attend to keep it ,
open. Geo. C. Farrar is instructor.
James Williams received slight injuries !
at No. 0 last week.
The literary society failed to meet last
week. No cause is assigned for it, but it !
was too close to election. The next
meeting will be on Monday evening.
This is the hunter's season of sport,
and while many of them start out in the
morning with their dogs and guns for a
day of pleasure, a glimpse at them in
the evening, when they return, would
indicate anything hut enjoyment. With
out any game, tired and weary after a
long day'B tramp, ttiey will not lie at
home two hours until they map out the
time and place for another day's
pleasure.
Council Meeting.
The members of the borough council
met in special session Saturday evening,
wi'h Messrs. Dooris, Williamson, Rutter
and DePierro present.
The minutes of the last regular meet
ing were read and approved.
The following bills, which were laid
over from the last meeting, were read
and approved:
Williams & Jamos, concrete SM4 til
(ieortfo K routines, stones no 00
A. Donop, team l iio
Win. Johnson, team IN)
Wm. Johnson, flagstones 3 rl
Lewis Lentz, lumber 10 70
Patrick McLaughlin, Jr., appeared be
fore council to be exonerated from dog
tax. He was exonerated after taking
the necessary aflidavit.
Dr. E. W. Rutter complained that
there was a quantity of dirt and stones J
on Chestnut street, which the street
commissioner failed to have removed,
and requested that council would have
it taken away. He was instructed to
hire a person to remove it at the expense
of the borough.
The burgess' report for October was
read, showing receipts, $26.50; fees and
commission, $11.10; balance due the bor
ough, $15.40. The following amounts

J. J. Gillespie, surety; Annie C. Hoff

Shutting Down in Schuylkill.
The coal corporations in the Schuyl
kill region are experiencing much diffi
culty in operating their collieries. The
j railroad company complains fo the lack
of empty cars in consequence of the
I blockade at tide shipping points and
city terminals.
In order to relieve the blockade and
restrict production the Reading is only
working its best collieries full handed.
The others are making as small ship
ments as possible without shutting down,
while some of the more expensive places
have closed altogether.
One of the causes assigned is that
there is too much coal stocked at Perth
Amboy. The injunction pending in the
New Jersey courts against the combine
is also blamed, but the Pottsville Journal
says the cause is due to the lack of mo
tive power on the Reading system.
It is thought the suspension ordered
at. Coxe Bros. & C'o.'s collieries will not
last over three more weeks, after which
full time will again be ordered.
Diagram Now Open.
The diagram for the play "Waiting
for the Verdict." is now open at
Christy's store and reserved seats should
be procured immediately by all who
wish them.
The costumes for the piece are expect
ed to arrive from New York city to
morrow, and the company is making all
the preparations possible to justice to the
play on Thursday evening.
It is a three act drama, and is intense
ly interesting from start to finish. Com
edy and tragedy are combined by the
author in away that cannot fail to keep
the audience anxiously awaiting the out
come of the story that he has so success
fully dramatized.
Music for the play will be furnished
by DePierro's orchestra.
The cast is composed of the following:
Jasper Itoscblnde Jns. P. Sweeney
Jonathan ltoseblade Jas. ltogan

A Remarkable Increase.
The American , of PittHburg, the oflicial
organ of the Junior Order United Amer
ican Mechanics, in its reports from the
district deputies, says:
Five Councils constitute the 268 th dis
trict— Nos. 34, 51, 61), 348 and 84(1. At
the beginning of the year, No. 34, of
Hazleton, had 165 members and it now
has 212. No. 51, of Weatherlv, gained
23 members, its total being 115. The
present membership of No. 69, also of
Hazleton, is 144, a gain of 21 over last
year.
An even 100 is the remarkable lecord
of increase credited to No. 348, of Free
land, whose present membership is 344.
No. 840, of White Haven, was but lately
instituted, and its membership is 24.
The total membership of the district is
872, a gain during the year of 218 mem
bers. This is indeed an indication of
progress. The deputy of the district is
John Pettit, who has been very active in
the general work.
Interred Without Service..
There was a sensation at Olyphant,
Lackawanna county, on Friday, when
Father P. J. Murphy refused to admit
inside his church the body of Charles
McNally, who was a prominent resident
of the town.
McNally's remains were accompanied
to the church by the Catholic Young
Men's Temperance Society, which was
was denied admission to the C. T. A. U.
convention at Hazleton last May.
When the priest saw the society enter
the church he refused to perform the
burial service unless they would retire.
They would not do so and so the remains
were interred without services being
held.
A Great. Play.
John R. Franz Cumpson, in bis pres
entation of "The Merry Cobbler," has '
scored unbounded success this season.
The play deals with every phase of j
human life, high, low, comic and con
scious. It is an admirable production,
and will be seen here on the 21st inst.
