FREELAND TRIBUNE.
VOL. VII. NO. 77,
PRESIDENTS TO MEET.
HEADS OF THE COAL ROADS WILL
GET TOGETHER TODAY.
Another Attempt, to B M*lu to H.-tfii-
Inte tlie Production of A iitliuw-'te Coal
Some Coinpaniei* Will Not Agree io a
Binding Contract. "
The meeting of the presidents of tin
anthracite coal roads, to be held in No.\
York today, is the chief topic of interest
in financial circles in New York ami
Philadelphia, and is also of much im
portanco to all interested in mining
Today's meeting may strengthen th<
famous coal combination, which, since
its existence, has been grinding the
miners at one end and the consumers at
the other, or it may end the tottering
monopoly and leave each road free t
carry ail the coal for which a marked
can be found.
As to making an agreement as to ton
nage allotment there is probably less
difficulty than there will be in maintain
ing it. As far as can bo known, some
of the leading lines will not enter into
any binding contract. The Pennsylva
nia Railroad lias refused for many years
to be an active party to any restrictive
plan and lias refused to attend tho coal
combination meetings for a long period.
It is not believed by any one acquainted
with Mr. Roberts' policy, that he will
commit himself in writing and legally
to any scheme which restricts tho move
ment or price of a staple article of trade.
Recently Mr. Sloan, of tho Lacka
wanna, who was oue of the founders of
tho coal combination, has utterly refus
ed to carry out the agreements made.
He lias sent a representative of the
Lackawanna to tlie # meetings, but for a
long time it lias been well understood
that his road would do as it pleased.
The Reading long ago gave notice
that it was not getting as large a share
of coal traffic as it was entitled to and
that It proposed to have its full share of
tonnage. Though tills policy was adopt
ed nearly two years ago, it was only dis
covered by the New Yorkers last week.
Tho Reading Company, it is understood,
wants about 21 per cent of the total ton
nage and is willing to go into an agree
ment if It gets what it wants.
Tho Delaware and Hudson is a ricli
and haughty corporation which can take
care of itself in any event, and it pro
poses to get all it thinks it deserves.
The Lehigh Valley and Central Rail
road of New Jersey would be glad to go
into an arrangement tlint did not re
duce their percentages, and it is possi
ble tliey might concede a little.
There would probably be little trouble
in getting tho Pennsylvania Coal Com
pany into an arrangement. Mr. lioyt,
tho late president, made a big light once,
9 but recently the company lias been
tractable.
The Eric, which is a more interested
anthracite carrier since the Lehigh Val
ley opened its own line to Buffalo, wants
an increase, and the same may be said
of the Ontario and Western, Susque
hanna and Western and the Delaware,
Susquehanna and Schuylkill.
These latter roads have appeared as
factors in the trade since the last allot
ment of tonnage percentages was agreed
to, in Mr. Pierpont Morgan's parlor in
December 188 G.
Every line of course wants more ton
nage than they can have, and if the
presidents are unable to arrange a satis
factory percentage today for each road
tlie coal combine may dissolve and each
railroad will then have to hustle for all
it is worth.
Opera Hou*e Tonight.
Everv one likes to laugli and enjoy
themselves, and tlie manager of the
opera house knows it, so lie lias secured
for tonight tlie new "Peck's Bad Boy."
Tills bad boy is different from most bad
boys, for ho is a jolly companion for two
and a half hours, although lie makes
tilings lively for ids companions in the
play. The bad boy's chum and his girl
are.apt pupils, and the trio moving for
tlie grqeoryman, the policeman and Ma
jor Peck. The other members of tlie
company constitute their share in songs,
dances and funny doings and tlie result
is an evening of vast enjoyment with
one big laugli from start to finish. To
night only.
Allentown Thought It the Best.
"Peck's Bad Boy" was at Allentown
on Thursday evening last, and tlie com
ments of tlie press of that city are very
good. The Chronicle states tlie com
pany was without doubt tlie only one
that lias ever properly produced the
play there. It tells its readers that
A those who missed the performance lost
t an opportunity to see tho best comedy
played in the Academy of Music this
season.
Sideboard Content to Clone.
All persons who have been engaged in
selling tickets for tlie sideboard contest,
for tlie benefit of Eckley Catholic
church, will please make their returns
on or before Saturday evening next,
March 30. The contest will close on tho
date named, and all interested are invit
ed to be present.
Rev. T. Brehony, pastor.

(Elliott's building) will be opened at
South Heberton by Its new proprietor,
George Schreiner, who will be pleased
to meet bis friends. A complete stock
of drinks of every kind on hand and
first-class service (or all.
It Look* Like h New County.
In tho house on Tuesday the bill to
enable Quay county to be formed came
ip for second reading. An amend
ment, which was agreed to by the
riouds of the bill, was offered by Rep
resentative Staples, of White Haven,
itid j r ivides "that a new county may
be established in the insmn tr author
zed in every district in this common
veal'h containing not loss than 40,000
inhabitants and an area of not less than
00 square miles, and no line of which
shall pass within less than ten miles of
ihe county seat of any county proposed
to be divided; provided that no now
•ounty shall bo established which shall
educe any county in area or popula
tion below the limits specified by the
•'(institution; and provided further, that
io new county shall be formed in any
district unless a board, consisting of the
governor, secretary of tho common
vealtli, auditor general, state treasurer
and secretary of internal affairs, or a
majority thereof shall approve the appli
cation therefor, and upon consideration
thereof find that the creation of such
proposed now county will permanently
subserve the public welfare and con
venience of the district to bo included
therein, and tend to largely promote and
advance the same."
Tlie bill passed second reading as
amended. The amendment was inspired
by Chris. Magee, and it is intended to
embody in one act provisos for all the
proposed now counties. It will enable
the county of Monongahela to be formed
immediately out of portions of Allegheny,
Westmoreland, Washington and Fayette.
It will also make possible the proposed
Anthracite comity out of portions of
Wayne, Lackawanna and Susquehanna
counties.
Much opposition was discovered to tlie
bill on Tuesday night, which came from
tlie anti-new county people all over the
state, and there was some probability
that its chauces might be endangered
on third reading. Tho bill was taken
up yesterday for final passage, but Rep
resentative Jeffrey succeeded in having
it reconsidered and put back to second
reading. Ho tlien had tlie Staples"
amendment stricken out and tlie bill is
now in its original form. Tho test vote
of tlie house upon this was 121 to 44, a
decisive majority. Three sections pas
sed second reading yesterday," and the
remainder are under discussion today.
Site Selected at La*t.
From tlifc Wilkes-llnrrc Leader.
Tlie county commissioners have about
decided to build tlie new county court
house on River street, about half way
between North street and Courtright
avenue. This is one of tlie sites consid
ered in the competition at tlie time the
Soutli Main street site was selected.
It is tlie River street end of tho jail lot.
Immediately in the rear of the jail and
lias an ample frontage of about 500 feet.
The property belongs to the county and
tho coal underlying it lias not been dis
turbed and is not likely to be, since tlie
county's assent to taking it out would
have to be secured. This site would be
handy for tlie criminal court business.
Prisoners could be brought from the rear
of tlie prison directly into the court
house by tlie roar and returned in tlie
same way. The one heating and light
ing plant could bo made to supply both
buildings.
These are among tlie considerations
that have about determined the commis
sioners to make this choice. Tlie chief
considerations are, however, that be
tween tlie court, tlie citizens and the
council, they have been left no other
choico. They are pretty well satisfied
that they will never be permitted to
build upon the Square, seeing that any
citizen of the commonwealth can, on tlie
view taken, stop them there. The court
lias decided that they cannot buy a lot
and tlie impression seems to prevail that
Judges Rice and Lynch will be sustained
by the supreme court. The council
committees havo decided against grant
ing them the river common above Union
street. All this leaves them only the
River street lot. There is room there
for a commodious structure, and tlie
county holds tlie title without dispute.
Million* Have Enjoyed It.
Over five millions of people of all ages
have laughed their sides sore over the
funny pranks of Peck's Bad Boy and are
still smiling at their faint recollection.
The company presenting tlie comedy at
tho opera house this evening is one that
plays week stands only, but owing to
illness were obliged to cancel a week in
Philadelphia. This necessitated their
playing a part week on short notice and
Freelanders are about to receive a rare
treat. It's an ill wind that blows- no
body any good. A gaze on the cast and
musical and specialty programing is suf
ficient. The members are stars and have
been with tho cream of the profession.
Among tlie most prominent is Fred VYen
zel, who as tho object of Henry Peck's
trickery, is simply perfection. Louis
Wesley is an ideal bad boy and Lynn
Welchcr is all that could lie desired.
Don't miss them.
W. W. W, stands for Wesley, Wcnz.el
and Welchcr—tlie Bad Boy, Sehultz and
Duffy.
sl2 for a nice spring suit to order at
Refowich's. Perfect fit guaranteed.
Trouble will commence at 8.15 p. m,
tonight at Freeland opera house.

FREELAND, PA, THURSDAY, MARCH 28, 1895.
ECKLEY TOPICS.
At a meeting of the Shamrock Fife
and Drum Corps on March 12 they de
cided to hold a ball at Freeland on April
22. They had bills distributed among
the various towns in this vicinity. Tho
bills were not interfered with until some
scoundrel at Sandy Run had the audaci
ty to cut tho word Shamrock from the
poster. Now if this is directed as an in
sult against the name of the corps and
Irishmen in general, will the ignorant
bigot come forward and acknowledge
that he did so and meet the persons at
whom the insult was cast? But we
need not ask that question, for he is too
cowardly, as his act has shown, ljo was
too much afraid to attack the men who
love the shamrock, so he showed his
bravery by attacking a defenseless piece
of paper tacked upon the store. Now
this is not like the work of boys, but of
old fashioned boys who are engaged in
other schemes which they are afraid to
perform in daylight.
Every person who is acquainted with
the members of the corps knows very
well that they do not deserve such an
attack and that they are worthy of all
the encouragement that can be given
them. Now the members of tho drum
corps are young men of Irish descent,
who honor the shamrock, and have
more love and respect for the star
spangled banner and its laws than any
sneaking coward who would dare Insult
the shamrock.
Great was the indignation of the corps
when this fact was brought to their no
tice, and your correspondent can assure
the scoundrel, who ever ho may be, that
they will leave nothing undone to find,
out the guilty parties. A committee
has been appointed to look after it, and
if the authors of tlie crime are discover
ed they will surely receive tho punish
ment they so richly deserve.
All that was mortal of the late Mrs.
John McCauley, of Eckley, was convey
ed to its last resting place in Woodsido
on Tuesday. Tlie family has the sym
pathy of the community in its sad afflic

lifo become.
