VOL. VI. No. 48.
DANGER ON THE VALLEY.
COLLISIONS AND WRECKS OCCURRING
HOURLY ON THE ROAD.
Wilbur's Scabs Roll Up an Appaling List
of CasunlltleH—Men Slaughtered Indis
criminately—Time for the Public to
Re Protected from These Murderers.
Those who rids on the Lehigh Valley
Railroad, outside of the Hazleton divi
sion, take their lives in their hands, for
the record made by the present employes
the past few days has demonstrated the
fact that the scum of the eastern states
lias now full control of the rolling stock.
The incompetencey and ignorance of
the things who have charge of the en
gines and who run trains is shown daily
by the frequent wrecks, collisions, delay
ed and stalled trains, mails from two to
ten hours late, and the utter disregard
they have for life and property.
The scabs are slaughtering one another
at the rate of half a dozen a day.
Nobody but the company will ever
know the cost of the strike or the loss of
life, as the officials absolutely refuse to
acknowledge the wrecks on the road, but
they cannot hide from the public the
disabled engines, the cars destroyed or
the mangled remains of the scabs whose
souls are blown into eternity daily.
President Wilbur's pride alone is the
cause of the strike continuing, and
through his pride the property of the
company is being smashed and burned
by the poor apologies for men in whose
care he has placed the road.
It is time a halt is called. The public
is entitled to protection from these mur
derers, and there is surely some law that
can be invoked to bring the autocrat at
Bethlehem to his senses.
The company is defeated, but the
stubborness of the high-salaried officials
prevents them from saying so, and it
seems they are determined to allow
every engine and car to be destroyed be
fore they will give the strikers justice.
New* Along the Line.
The following brief paragraphs, all
obtained from reliable sources, show
what is being done now on the Le
high Valley system:
An engine blew up near Waverly and
two of the new men, Charles Swartout
and Pearl Smith, were fatally scalded.
Both suffered terribly for twelve hours,
then died.
At Penn Ilaven a caboose and several
coal cars went through a misplaced
Bwitch and landed in the Lehigh riverl
At Fairview a coal and a freight train
collided, scattering merchandise in every
direction and destroying fifteen cars.
A passenger and a freight met at West
Avoca. Fortunately the freight got the
worst of the shock.
Engine 328 was deserted by its crew
near Penn Haven and left standing on a
siding.
Seven freights were stalled on the
mountain cut-off. The new brakemen
refused to work until they were fed, and
the Pinkertons took their places.
An engine went over the embankment,
at Glen Summit, although the engineer
was signalled to back from the open
switch.
Central officials have forbidden their
employes to lend any assistance to the
Bcahs on the Valley.
Two hundred and forty coal and iron
"thugs" are on duty at Wilkes-Barre,
and every train on the road carries from
five to twenty of these armed "bums."
A through train from New York to
Wiles-Barre had seven passengers on
board, and took nine hours to cover the
distance.
Up to Friday night twenty seven en
gines with their crown sheets burned
were lying in the Wilkes-Barre round
house. They represent at least SOO,OOO
worth of damage.
Last night's storm caused many scabs
to desert.
The Hazleton and Mahanoy divisions
are reported to be tied up tighter today
than at any time since the strike began.
Coal and iron policemen at Pittston
try to provoke quarrels with the strikers.
"All grievances must be adjusted and
all scabs discharged" is the ultimatum
of the men.
Several passenger trains on the Wyom
ing division have been taken off.
Nobody will ride on the Valley road,
and the Central and D. & H. trains are
crowded.
Engine No. 30, claimed to be the
finest in America and the pride of the
Valley Company, was burned out by an
incompetent engineer above White
Haven. The loss was no less than
SIO,OOO.
Not a striker has yet deserted between
White Haven and Pittston.
Hazleton has ninety-live men enrolled
on tbe strike list.
Freight will not be accepted by the
company unless the shipper will send it
"subject to delay."
An unknown brakeman had his arm
taken off while making a coupling near
Ashley on Friday afternoon.
On Friday morning at a point east of
Glen Summit a freight train parted in
the middlti and the sections coming
together at a high rate of speed demolish
ed about fifteen cars.
Near Pittston Junction a loaded gon
dola broke from its train and started
down the track. Engine 71 was coming
up and— both were taken to the shops in
pieces. The scab engineer jumped out
the window when he saw tbe car coming.

A DAY OF WRECKS.
It Win a llluck Friday for Seal), on the
Lehigh Valley Itallroad.
A wreck occurred at 1 o'clock on Fri
day afternoon at Fairview. Engine No.
402 pushed engine 394 and a freight train
from White Haven to Glen Summit and
then cut loose. No. 394 with the train
went on and stopped at the Gracedale
tank for water, when No. 402 came
around the curve at the rate of thirty
miles and hour and dashed into the
caboose in the rear of No. 394. Engine
402, the caboose and half a dozen freight
cars were badly wrecked, and the mass
of debris caught fire from the stove in
the caboose. Two brakemeu, Frank
Wilson, of New York, and Jameß Mc-
Cabe, of Jersey City, were in the caboose
and were pined under the wreck and
slowly roasted to death. Their cries
could be heard, but. they could not be
reached. Later their bodies, almost
burned to a crisp, were extricated. The
uninjured portion of the train was pulled
away from the wreck, which was all
consumed.
Another wreck occurred tho same
morning at North Wilkes-Barre. A
fieight train leaving AVilkes-Barre about
midnight remained intact until it reach
ed a point near theConyngham breaker,
where the two last cars parted and the
train sped on and left the two cars stand
ing on the main line. Passenger train
19 due to leave that city north at 1.40 a.
m. did not leave until about 5 o'clock.
Going at good speed it crashed into the
two freight cars about that time. The
engine with the two freight cars were
wrecked and the firemen, PeterSweeney,
of Sayre, so severely injured internally
that he died that afternoon.
A collision occurred south of Hazleton
on Friday night, in which a shifting en
gine ran full speed into the Pottsville
express. A heavy snowstorm prevailed
at the time, which prevented the engi
neers from seeing any distance ahead of
them. The shifter was about to reverse
her ends and ran down the "Y" for that
purpose. Just as she approached the
western switch the express dashed over
it and the next instant both engines
came together with tremendous force.
The shifting engine left the track, but
still held the express train, bringing the
latter to a full stop and throwing the
passengers about the cars promiscuously.
The shifting engine was wrecked com
pletely. The other locomotive was
badly damsged by the scabs' neglect.
Saturdays Smashlll>.
A freight train was parted by the sud
den jerking of the engineer above White
Haven early Saturday morning. No no
tice was taken of it, and the last part of
the train came through to White Haven,
where it stopped in the centre of the
town. Another freight came rushing
along, the engino plowed through the
caboose, set it on fire and threw the
burning timbers in every direction. The
engine and cars were completely des
troyed, tracks were torn up and traffic
Btopped for twelve hours. Three scabs
were reported missing.
The burning cars set fire to Rhunke's
hotel, Rickor's store, Cramer's store, J.
Feist's residence, several stables and
outbuildings, all of which were more or
less destroyed. The strikers worked
nobly to save the town from destruction.
The entire loss is estimated at $200,000.
Superintendent Wilbur's combination
car and engine, "Dorothy," met a run
away engine near Phillipsurg. Ten
seconds later $20,000 worth of railroad
property was wrecked. The scabs saved
their lives by jumping and made no ef
fort to avoid a collision.
A scab crew at Wilkes-Barre got stuck
on a crossing on Saturday. The police
arrested them for obstructing the streets,
and the mayor fined them $7.50 each.
It is said another disastrous wreck oc
curred yesterday near Fairview, but the
report could not be verified.

CONGRESSMANILILLY DEAD.
KxpiroM Suddenly at Ills Home In the
Arms of a I'liytiicinn.
In the midst of his preparations for
the regular session of congress, which
meets at Washington today, General
William Lilly, congressman-at-large
from this state, died very unexpectedly
at his home at Mauch Chunk at 1.20
o'clock on Friday afternoon. Death was
due to congestion of the lungs, caused by
a heavy cold contracted during a visit to
Indianapolis since the adjournment of
the special session of congress. Nothing
was thought of it, however, for he was
able to be about. At 1 o'clock he was
taken suddenly ill. His physician was
sent for and twenty minutes later he
died in his arms.
AVilliam Lilly was born at Penn Yan,
N. Y., in June, 1821. He went to Mauch
Chunk in 1840 and entered the service
of the Beaver Meadow Railroad Com
pany as their coal shipping agent at Penn
Haven, then the head of the Lehigh
canal. He began a poor boy and died
the possessor of at least $1,500,000 in
in wealth. The business enterprises in
which he was interested are almost in
numerable. He was a member of the
coal mining firm of Lentz, Lilly & Co.
and L. A. Reilly & Co., in Schuylkill,
and of the firm of George B. Markle &
Co., at Jeddo, He was a director in the
East Broad Top Railroad Company, in
the Highland Coal Company, the Union
Improvement Company, and the An
dover Iron Company.
In Carbon county he was president of
the Lehigh Emery Wheel Company and
the Carbon Metallic Point Company.
He was a director in both the First and
Second National Banks of Mauch Chunk,
and also held a seat in the board of
directors of the First National Bank of
Shenandoah. He was the president of
the board of trustees of the miners' hos
pital at Ashland.
His title he received during his con
neciion with the militia in the younger
days of his life. He became interested
in politics early in life, and at one time
represented Carbon county in the house
at Ilarrisburg. At the breaking out of
the rebellion he became an ardent Union
man and joined his forces with the Re
publican party. He was also a promi
nent Mason.
The general's wife died two years ago.
He iB survived by one sister, eleven
nieces and nephews, one stepson and a
stepdaughter. The funeral will take
place tomorrow.
A successor to Congressman Lilly will
be elected at the February election.
