THE STRIKE IN CONGRESS.
lllneH Wauls $5,000 Dmmt.'tl for a Con
grettiioual Junketing: Tour.
In the house on Monday Congressman
Hines, of Wilkes-Barre, asked unani
mous consent for the consideration of a
resolution for tiie appointment of a com
mittee of flveto investigate the Lehigh
strike, its causes, the loss of life and
property, and to recommend any feasible
general legislation for the prevention of
strikes in the future. The resolution
reads as follows:
"Resolved, That a Bpecial committee
of five, of the house of representatives,
be appointed to investigate forthwith
the extent, cause and effect upon inter
state commerce of the continued failure
of the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company
to transport such commerce, also passen
gers and United States mail, and to re
port to the house by bill or otherwise,
for consideration at any time, such legis
lation as is necessary to secure to the
public the regular and complete execu
tion by said railroad company of its obli
gations to serve as a common carrier of
interstate commerce, and to investigate
the difficulties existing on said railroad
between Jersey City, in the state of New
Jersey, and Bufjplo, in the state of New
York, and to further investigate all the
facts in relation to the failure of said
company to provide competent workmen
to run their trains; also, what loss of life
and property has taken place by reason
of said company placing incompetent
workmen known as scabs to run their
trains, and to report the same to the
house, with such recommendations as
the committee may agree upon; and,
further, make such recommendations as,
in their judgement, may prove service
able in putting an end to strikes in tho
future.
"Resolved, That such committee be
authorized to sit during the sessions of
the house, and at such places as it may
find necesaary, to employ astenographar,
a clerk, to administer oaths, examine
witnesses, compel the attendance of
persons, and the production of books
and papers.
"Resolved, That a sum not exceeding
$5,000 to pay the expenses of said spe
cial committee, as aforesaid, be immedia
tyly available and payable out of the
contingent fund of the house, on the
order of the chairman and one of the
committee, in sums not exceeding SI,OOO
at one time, and all vouchers for such
expenditures shall be likewise certified
to by the chairman and one member of
the commiitee."
Congressman Kilgore, of Texas, ob
jected, and the resolution was laid over,
and may never be heard of again unless
Hines wants further cheap notoriety.
Every strike of large proportions for the
past few years, including the miners'
strike of 1887-88, had these investigation
committees, but nothing beyond the
squandering of money was ever accom
plished, and the congressman has added
nothing to his credit by trying to use the
present strike to boost his waning popu
larity.
UPPER LEHIGH NOTES.
Miss Kate Duffy left this morning for
Carbondale, where, with Miss C'elia

The sleigh bells jingled merrily upon

taking a firm hold among our people.
We hope to see the work continued, as
it has already accomplished much good.
Packed Hotiaes Everywhere.
From the Oleans, N. Y„ Herald.
Gus Thomas's clever play, "The Bur
glar," was presented before a packed
house Saturday evening and the audi
ence was thoroughly delighted. "The
Burglar" is a four-act comedy-drama
somewhat out of the usual order and
therefore all the more enjoyable. It
was presented by a splendid company,
the moßt popular member was little Lot
tie Briscoe, the wonderful six-year-old
actress.
She is certainly thf most precocious
child ever seen on the Olean stage Not
only is she perfectly natural and thor
oughly charming in her acting, hut she
is possessed of a wonderful Btrong, clear
and sweet voice for one so young, and
her singing and dancing specialties were
unmistakbly the hit of the season.
PLEASURE CALENDAR.

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1893.
THE STRIKE IS ENDED.
WILBUR AND VOOHEES AGREE TO
THE MEN'S DEMANDS.
Arbitration Hoards of New York unci
New Jersey Urine About a .Settlement.
Strikers' Point. Conceded, but All
May Not lie Given Work Again.
The strike on the Lehigh Valley Rail
road was declared off yesterday, but the
terms of settlement have not yet been
made public in full. Enough, howeyer,
lias been given out to show that the
cause of the ttouble, the refusal of the
company to receive committees from the
employes, has been decided in favor of
the men.
The settlement of the strike was
brought about by a conference of the
New York and New ;Jersey state hoards
of arbitration, the chief of the brother
hoods, the grievence committees of the
employes and the company's officials.
After the strike was declared on the
strikers insisted on being taken back in
a body after their demands should be
satisfied. This point, it is thought,, was
waived by them, and in return the com
pany agrees to live np to its former
agreements, which were broken by
PresidentjWilbur.
Committees with grievances will be
heard by the officials, promotions will
be made in the manner asked by the
men, a satisfactory scale of wages will
be put into effect, and no discrimination
will be made against a man for his con
nection with the strike or any labor
order.
In details these concessions are satis
factory to the strikers, who appear to
have won every point they struck for,
but the company does not have to take
them back until vacancies occur, then
the strikers shall be given preference if
they apply for work.
However, on account of several bogus
dispatches and misunderstandings about
the terms of settlememt, the men did
not all return to or apply for their posi
tions yet. The members of the brother
hoods are not any too well pleased with
the terms, but the general opinion is
that the strike is over for good, and
while not a complete victory for the em
ployes, they succeeded in obtaining
means to have future grievances adjust
ed, and that was the principle of the
strike.
Officers Elected.
The German Social Club elected the
following officers on Monday evening:
President—Charles Dusheck.
Secretary—Philip Geritz.
Treasurer—A. Geoppert.
A number of invited guest were pres
ent from Hazleton and a pleasant time
was had after the meeting.

FINLLYVILLE, Pa., Dec. D. —The coal

Crystal Hidge Slope A Are Again.
A fire broke out in the Crystal Ridge
slope, Hazleton, at 8.30 on Tuesday
night. This is the same slope in which
a fire occurred lastspringand caused con
siderable damage to the mine. How it
broke out no person can tell, for the boy
who runs the pump in one of the lower
lifts was on the surface at the time, and
when tie got ready to go down again
noticed the flames coming out of the
mouth of the slope. He ran into the en
gine house and alarmed the night engi
neer and fireman, who hurried to the
mouth of the slope and were met by the
flames. •
At midnight the fire was raging fierce
ly, and the breaker was in danger of
total destruction, as the flames were
climbing the trestle work leading from
the mouth of the slope. The Hazleton
fire department was called out and suc
ceeded in preventing the breaker from
being burned.
Despite the efforts of the company the
fire continues to burn fiercely and a great
deal of damage has already resulted.
Frank Pardee, Foreman Thomas Mim
ford and Adam Most were several burn
ed by the ttames yesterday. It is feared
now that the coal inside iB on fire by
this time, and the workers are doing
their best to get control of the blaze.

(turned to Dentil lit Glou Lyon:
From the Nanticoke Sun.
A sad accident occurred at Glen Lyon
Saturday afternoon. Two little children
of Jacob Schwick's, a boy of five years,
and a girl of three years, went out into
the woods about sixty yards from the
house, taking with them, unknown to
their mother, a lighted mine lamp.
The children scraped together some
leaves and started a fire, not realizing
.the danger they were in until the little
girl getting too close her dress caught
fire and before help could get to her she
was so badly burned that she died Sun
day morning after lingering along in
great agony.
A Fraud.
There is a man going around in the
different parts of the country soliciting
for a Catholic publication, and when he
secures a subscriber he wants half of the
amount down. He then tells the book
will be delivered to the priest of tho
parish and he will see that it is deliver
ed to them. They are to pay the bal
ance to the priest. The man is an im
poster and all persons should beware of
him.
Strength of the Lutheran* in America.
According to the Lutheran Church
Alumnae, for 1894, there are now in this
country 60 Lutheran synods, 5,273 min
isters, 9,013 congregations and 1,094,880
communicants. The Lutherans main
tain 2,640 parochial schools with 138,386
pupils. The largest Lutheran branch is
the synodical conference, which reports
441,129 members.
A Fine Flay and n Good Company.
From the Warren, I'a., Mirror.
It can be said without fear of contradic
tion, that the production of Bcammon's
"Burglar" at Library theatre last even
ing, was one of the finest performances
that has ever been witnessed there. It
takes a position in the front rank of
comedy-drama and will easily hold its
place with the very best of plays. It is
a play which the most fastidious, the
most exacting could view without
offence, and inerrited the successful run
which it is having. The sentiment of
the play is true to nature, and on that
account not only intensely interesting,
but instructive as well, and can be
properly called, in the hands of the ex
cellent company, a dramatic treat, which
it manifestly was to all who attended the
production last evening.
A betteffcompany of theatrical talent
never appeared before a Warren audi
ence, and the parts were superbly acted,
there being passages which called for
the highest art of which each member
of the company showed himself maßter.
The accomplished little lady, Lottie
Briscoe, in the part of Kditha is, without
question, tho leader of stage children,
and her work is that of one beyond her
years. Her singing revealed a voice of
remarkable range in one BO young, sweet,
full arid beautiful not a single word
being lost to the audience.
