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.

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

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
