FREELAND TRIBUNE. VOL. VI. No. 15. READING DEAL BROKEN. LEHIGH VALLEY IS ONCE MORE AN INDEPENDENT RAILROAD. Corrupt Reading Could Not Pay Its Bills and Is NOW Alone With Its Troubles and Debts—Rumors of the Valley A<llll - With the Pennsy. The lease which has existed between the Lehigh Valley Railroad and the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Companies since February, 1892, has abrogated by the former corporation. The directors of tho former com pany at their meeting in Philadelphia on Tuesday voted to notify the Reading Company of its action on the ground that the Reading owed the Lehigh Valley Company a considerable sum of money on account of the lease, which it was impossible to collect. The resigna tion of Elisha P. Wilbur as a receiver of the Reading Company, who is also presi dent of the Lehigh Valley Company, accompanied this notice. The money due the Lehigh Valley is said to he for material hills and other current expenses, which should have been paid promptly. The Reading hoard of managers accepted tho proposition of the hoard of Lehigh Valley without dissent and the matter was taken before Judge Dallas, of the United States court. As there was no opposition, lie made the necessary order, which terminated the contract between the two companies. This order also hreakes all contracts between tho Lehigh Valley Coal Com pany and the Reading Coal and Iron Company. • Early in the day Mr. Wilbur resigned his position as receiver of the Reading Railroad Company, and during the after noon Judge Dallas appointed John Low her Welsh to fill the vacancy. PASTED HARMONIOUSLY. It is said that the two companies part their business relations harmoniously. It has been recognized for some time that in the present state of Reading's finances that company was unable to maintain the lease of the Lehigh Valley and its monetary and business obliga tions, which require a large outlay of capital. Both Reading and Lehigh Valley officials have also recognized the fact that if the Reading Company could maintain the lease, it would eventually ho advantageous to both corporations, especially the Reading. It was found Borne months ago to ho impossible and _ the step now taken is not unexpected by those who have been informed on Le high Valley and Reading affairs. The rumors about the financial condi tion of the Lehigh Valley, to the effect that there might be a receivership, was denied by well informed parties. The Lehigh Valley, it is well known, has a Heating debt of $4,000,000, but it is in no way a pressing debt, as it is well secured and can be easily taken care of by the company. WHAT THE VALLEY WILL DO. „ What the Lehigh Valley Company will do cannot yet be ascertained. The officials of the company Bay they will operate the road, but it is stated that as soon as plans can be prepared a lease or some binding contract will bo entered into which will in soino way make the relations between the Valley and the New York and New England Railroad Companies stronger than they ever have" been. It is also rumored that the Pennsyl vania Railroad will become the possessor of the Lehigh Valley, as this acquisition would give it a shorter haul to Now York, and open up a territory which has for years been given exclusively to the Lehigh Valley and Reading Companies. It is now believed if McLeod does not lease the road through the New England Company that in time it will be control led by the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany. PLEASED WITH THE IIREAK. Reports received from Mauch Chunk, Hazleton, Easton, Pottsville and other points interested in the prosperity of the Lehigh Valley Railroad were to the effect that there was general rejoicing over the termination of the lease. At Mauch Chunk the old Lehigh Valley Hag was again sent to the breeze and much enthusiasm was manifested. In Pottsville it was believed the Lehigh Valley will now develop its own lands and insure greater prosperity for the lower Schuylkill coal region. The work ingrnen and railroaders aro particularly gratified with the change. They Will Get Her Consent Next. Time. A girl in Chicago has recovered SSOO damages from a steamboat company for naming a boat after her without asking her permission. An exchange says Blie took offense at a marine item stating that "Kittie Marshall, having been thoroughly scrubbed, painted, jefittod with canopied stern and new boilers, will hereafter serve as a mail carrier and poke her pretty nose into tho lake busi ness for all she's worth." COUNTING ON DULLARD. Do Is .Sure, Say. tin Exchange, to lie Nominated for Commissioner. Prom the Wilkes-Barre Times. That the interview in the Times re cently with a veteran Democrat in which he presented the claims of Alex ander and Brislin as against those of McGarry and some other man, for the offices of treasurer and register, was not based on ilimsy calculation or personal favoritism is foreshowed in a prophecy made to the "Saunterer," a regular writer for the FBEELAMD TRIBUNE, as to the complexion of the ticket that will be named by the Democratic convention. * * * when the "Saunterer's" arti cle was shown to the gentleman first in terviewed by the Times, he said: "I am not surprised that the lower end prophets should forecast such a re sult. I think he is off, however, in hiß makeup of county commissioners." "What is your idea as to that part of the ticket?" asked the scribe. "I am pretty cortaiu as to one man. He is .Tom Dullard. I know that the leaders are against him and will work for his defeat in tho convention." "Why is that?" "One reason is that they think Dul lard's candidacy will affect McGarry's," he replied. "Do you think Dullard is strong enough to make the fight?" "Yes, I do. He had a iieap of friends before he went into office and he has made many news ones since. The old will stick to him and the new will do their best for him." "How did he come to make new friends?" asked the scribe. "Simply by attending strictly to the business of the office. You could always find Dullard in his place and no official was ever more obliging and courteous." "Does he still hold agreeable relations with the workingmen?" "He is as strong as ever with them and it is their influence particularly that will help him in this year's fight. Dul lard has got some pretty big men in the Democratic party behind him too." Rattle With Snakes. An awful battle with rattlesnakes and copperheads was fought by three men at Brush Valley, near Mt. Carmel, on Monday. While hunting on the moun tain near Brush Valley, Scbardel Weist, Arron Mummah and John Orwig went through an experience calculated to raise their hair and set all their nerves twitching. Weist fell down through a hole in the ground that was screened by a clump of busheß, upon a very big nest of reptiles. Before the startled snakes had recov ered from their surprise, Weist drew quickly away from them, and fired a shot into their midst. Ho then started to heat them with the stock of his gun. He new he was in great danger, and yelled for help. Weist was nearly ex hausted when Mummah and Orwig came to the rescue, and fired so many shots that the snakes gave up the battle. Thirty-two rattlesnakes and three cop perheads were killed. Olio of the Founders of tho K. of L. noad. The death of James L. Wright, one of tho founders of the Knights of Labor, at his home in Philadelphia, lias been an nounced. Mr. Wright was 70 years old. He was horn in the province of Ulster, Ireland. His ancestors were of Scotch- Irish descent. When quite young his parents emigrated to the United States and settled in Philadelphia. Mr. Wright with six others founded the Knights of Labor in 1869, the forma tion'being due to a division in the Asso ciation of Garment Cutters, the parent organization. In 1891 he was expelled from the organization, being charged with attempting to change the order to a visionary association. lie explained his position and was then reinstated. Ilines Took a Front Seat. In tho selection of seats at the opening of congress on Monday the Pennsylvania Democratic representatives fared very well with a few e'xeeptions. Hines was the first called and he selected a very prominent seat in the second row from the front on the Democratic side. If lie carries out his reputation made in the state senate he will he a frequent appli cant for the speaker's recognition. Hines' opinion of the president's mes sage, after he had heard it read, was that Cleveland "had handled the ques tion in an admirable manner, exposing the dangers of the Sherman law with striking effectiveness.

It was decided to withhold the payment for that length of time from the next quarter's rent of of plugs. The Water Company was in structed to place a plug at Ridge and Chestnut streets. The report of tho committee which viewed the ground required to be fenced by the Water Company was presented. They reported that the Water Company insisted upon having 135x150 feet of the eastern portion of the park fenced, in a line with Birkbeck street, and that they did not favor such a proposition, but recommended that the fence and ditch be run at an angle BO as not to take in so much ground. It was decided that the committe slake off what it thinks is proper, and if that is not satisfactory to the Water Company they can appear be fore council and state what they do want. The report of the borough solicitor on the Johnson street matter was read.

The president appointed a committee consisting of E. W. Rutter, Thomas J. Moore and Frank DePierro to see parties holding sewer bonds maturing in No vember next, with a view to have them hold tho same until next May, and also to devise ways and means to complete the two streets named above. They aro to report to the president on or before the next regular meeting.
