V
lleading'H Miners in Hard Luck.
The Reading Company's miners in the
vicinity of Shenandoah have a very
discouraging outlook before them. On
Saturday the Shenandoah City, West
Shenandoah and Maple Hill collieries
shut down indefinitely, throwing 1023
men and boys out of employment. This,
in addition to the idleness of Indian
Ridge colliery, makes the total amount
of unemployed labor in this district
upward of 2200. It is reported there
that the company contemplated shutting
down the ninety collieries.
The rate of wages to b paid the
miners of the Schuylkill district for the
last two weeks of April and the first
two weeks of May is $2.42j. This is 2
per cent, below the $2.50 basis. Last
month it was 3 per cent, above the basis,
and the drop of 5 per cent, in one lump
is an indication that the receivers know
who to squeeze to cut down expenses.
A Luwyer'. Disgrace.
J. J. McCarty, a well-known attorney
of tho Lackawanna bai, was sentenced
on Saturday to one year in the county
jail on two convictions of forgery. He
was found guilty of forgihg the name of
his landlord to receipts, but was recom
mended to the extreme mercy of the
court.
When he was called for sentence be
fore Judge Gunster, bis counsel mado
an earnest plea for suspension of sen
tence, saying the weight of the law's
wrath would fall not upon the attorney
himself hut upon his wife and children.
Judge Gunster refused the motion and
then proceeded to impose sentence. He
referred to the high standing of the
Lackawanna Mr. McC'arty he
was the first to cast a cloud upon it, and
then announced the sentence.
The censure committee of the bar has
taken steps to have Mr. McCarty dis
barred.
RuilroaderH at Tawaqua.
The organized railroad men of the
eastern part of the state met yesterday
at Tamaqua, and transacted considerable
business of importance to the different
unions which the delegates represented.
The sessions, however, were secret, and
nothing was given out for publication.
In the afternoon public addresses were
made by the following labor leaders and
clergymen:
t Master Workman T. V. Powderly; I'.
A. Morrissey, of the Railroad Trainmen;
E. A. Wilson of the Firemen's Brother
hood; C. W. Henry, of the Brotherhood
Of Locomotive Engineers; E. H. Gerhart,
of tho order of Railroad Operators; W.
C. Enbody, of Mauch Chunk, and F. P.
Spiese, Revs. J. 8. Lame and George
Gebert, of Tamaqua.
School Superintendents.
Tomorrow evening the school directors
of Ilazle township will choose a superin
tendent to succeed Mr. Jones, the
present incumbent. As.far as known
there are only two candidates, Jameß
Costello and John J. Mulhall, either of
which is fully competent to fill the
position. Both claim three votes, and
how to secure the necessary one vote,
which will decide the election, is the
fight.
The election for county superinten
dent also occurs tomorrow. While there
is some opposition to Superintendent
Harrison, those in a position to know
say he will be re-elected without a doubt.
Police OfliccrM in Trouble.
Policemen Loeivel and Thomas, of
Nanticoke, were arrested on Saturday,
charged with the murder of ex-Burgess
James Vivian. The prosecutor is Harry
\ ivian, a brother of the dead man.
The policemen a few days ago arrested
Vivian, who was d.runk, and in taking
him to the station house used their ciubs
vigorously, cutting his head open and
otherwise injuring him.
It is claimed that the attack was
malicious, the officers having had a
grudge against Vivian. They were held
in SIO,OOO bail for trial.
Stole ti Wutcli.
Several weeks ago Ulrich's rag wagon,
from Soutli Heberton, was passing
through the streets of Jerusalem, a part
of White Haven, when a young boy who
was wilh the wagon looked into the
house of S. A. Stearns. Mrs. Stearns
was up stairs, and the boy finding no
one about went into the house and took
a watch lie found hanging there. In
some way he made a noise which attrac
ted Mrs. Stearns' attention, but when
she had come down he had departed.
The watch was missing and on a sub
sequent trip through the same place lie
was asked about it, but denied having
any knowledge of it. Several neighbors
had seen the boy go into the house the
first timeand readily identified him.
Krone, a rival in the rag business,
heard of the theft and informed the boy
that a warrant bad been issued for his
arrest, which had the desired effect of
causing the return of the watch a few
days ago, and the matter lias thus been
settled.— Journal.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE OF
NEIGHBORING TOWNS.
Miners In the Drifton "Low Coal" Am
Complaining of the Meagre Wages
They Receive—Klectric Road Surveyors
Working Around Jeddo.
Special and regular correspondence
from the surrounding towns is solicited
by the TRIBUNE. All writers will please
send their names to this office with com
munications intended for publication, in
order that the editor may know from
whom the correspondence comes.
DRIFTON ITEMS.
The men employed in the "low coal"
in No. 2slope are complaining bitterly
of the terms upon which they have to
work. Some have already resigned and
are looking elsewhere for jobs. One of
the men working tiiere showed your ,
correspondent his check on Friday, and
the figures on it proved that the miners
in that section are actually going in
debt. The expense of a laborer and the
cost of mining coal amounted to more
than he received from the company.
There is no justice in compelling ex
perienced miners to work in places of
this kind, and the firm should have ;
more regard for the welfare of their
men.
Ben Cross lias been promoted to the '
position of driver boss in No. 2 slope,
which was made vacant by the resigna
tion of William Wilson.
The sound of the hammer is plainly
heard now in the evenings getting the
[ fences ill order.
Base ball has made no progress of any j
consequence in this place so far, but the
boys intend to be in it wlien the proper
time comes.
Mrs. William Jeffrey, of Freeland,
paid friends a visit here last week.
John Mohan lias secured employment
at Jeddo and will move his family there
shortly.
Mrs. David Jones, of Upper Lehigh,
was visiting among friends here last'
| week.
j Frank Gillespie, one of the loeie fire-
I men here, was severely injured about
the iiips on Saturday while switching
cars.
The fishermen of town are in hard
luck so far Ibis season. Several trips
have already been mado to the various
trout streams, nil of which were fruit- 1
less.
Wm. J. Timney, a D. S. A S. brake
man of Freeland, was injured while i
jumping off a train on Tuesday. He re
sumed work this morning.
Several invitations have been received
by parties of town to attend the exer
cises of the graduates of Jefferson Medi
cal College, to be held at the Academy
of Music, Philadelphia, this month.

JEDDO NEWS.
Hungarians in large numbers are leav
ing this place for their native land.
Whether it is the summer that is taking i
them home to till their farms and return
again, or that they are only going on a
visit we know not, hut if it is the former,
we wish it would he summer all the i
time oyer there.
The masons are making considerable '
headway on the foundation of the new
addition to the No. 2 breaker at Oak
dale.
A large number of new mine cars
arrived Mere for No. 5 slope last week.
The many men from neighboring i
towns who are securing employment;
under this company at present makes an J
impression on us that the English
speaking race will onco more inhabit
this ancient settlement.
At last we have some prospects of hav
ing an electric railway. The surveyors
of tho North Side Company have been
at work during tho past week and liavo 1
completed the line between this place
and'Hazleton. This lino, it is expected,
will be in running order about the latter j
part of August or the forepart of Sep- j
teniber. It lias always been a draw
back to get from this place to Freeland, j
especially from Japan and Oakdale, to
do shopping, because in tho evenings
after working hours there are no trains
running from the latter towns to Free
land and seldom A men who work all I
day in the mines travel the distance be
tween here and Freeland unless it is ab
solutely necessary.
It will lie more convenient for tho
people of these towns to do their trading
in Hazleton. With tlie cars going past
their doorg they can go and come from
Hazleton and ayoid the tiresomo jour
