Maloy Found Guilty.
James W. Maloy, of Lunsford, whose
libel suit occupied the attention of thy
Carbon county court last week, was
found guilty as charged in tho indict
ment. The prosecutor was E. E. Scott,
a Summit Hill school teacher, who was
accused by Editor Maloy in the Record
of teaching school while his own chil
dren were afflicted with measles. Dur
ing the it was proven that tho ar
ticle printed was true in every respect,
and as tho school teacher is a public of
ficial his actions aro open to criticism by
tho pross. The prosecution maintajned
that there was ill-will and malice back
of the paragraph, and this claim was
upheld by tin*, jury, according to the ver
dict rendered. A now trial has been ap
plied for, and newspaper publishers in
general hope the editor will succeed in
obtaining one, as the present decision
abridges the liberty of the press and
would preventeditors from calling at
tention to the misdemeanors and care
less neglect of duty 011 tho part of a pub
lic officer, unless both parties were ex
ceedingly friendly.
An Alleged Deficiency.
A Philadelphia Press dispatch from
Hazleton says there was something of a
sensation produced in tho councils of
that city 011 Friday, when Controller
Jacobs informed them that tho books of
his predecessor, Joseph Salmon, showed
a deficiency of $20,640.47. Tho debit he
found to bo $88,407.08, while the credits
amounted to $109,047.55. The deficiency
Mr. Jacobs was unable to locate, al
though he thought it would be found to
be a clerical error. He refused to as
sume charge of the office until the mat
ter was straightened out, and City Soli
citor McNalr being present, advised the
councils to send for Mr. Salmon with
the request that lie go over his accounts
and straighten them out. In the mean
time, the messenger who was sent after
the ox-controller returned with the in
formation that lie had left for Huffalo.
The impression prevailed that Mr. Sal
mon would be able to show where the
discrepancy coines In. lie was tele
graphed for and pending a reply from
him further action in the matter was
suspended.
Administrator Sues Two Hanks.
C. O. Stroll, administrator of the es
tate of the late Richard R. Griffith and
Mary Griffith, his widow, of Upper Le
high, instituted a suit in assumpsit 011
Thursday against tho Citizens' bank of
Freeland for $300.07. The plaintiff
claims that Richard R. Griffith died on
February 2, 1892. and had the above
sum 011 deposit in the bank. Tho book
is made out in the name of Richard R.
Griffith or his wife, Catherine, and on
this ground the bank resists payment.
The plaintiff claims that Mrs. Griffith's
legal name is Mary.
A similar suit was also filed against the
First National bank of Ilazjoton for the
recovery of $295.
Oil Fire at Wilkes-Ilarre.
A spark from a passing locomotive on
tho P3iinsylvania Railroad set fire to the
oil houses of the Atlantic Refining Com
pany In Wilkes-Barre Friday. Tho j

TOWNSHIP FINANCES.
Some Interesting Figuro* Arranged In a
Readable Form by an Exchange.
From the White Haven Journal.
Some interesting exhibitions of the
financial management of township af
fairs arc made by the auditors of liuzlc
and Foster townships In the annual
statements just published, and for tho
information of our readers who are in
terested oil tiie subject we extract the
following facts from tho ollicial records:
IIAZI.E TOWNSHIP.
Patrick Sharkey was one of the super
visors of Hazlc township last year, and
expended $5,531.88. Among tho items
he charged against the township were
for liis own services 344 days, $640.82;
and John McGlnnls, horse, 33114 days,
■s(lß3. Tho auditurs would not allow the
total claim, and surcharged Sharkey
with $121.25 excessive horse hire; $170.82
excessive time and wages for himself;
SIIB.BO pay for minor children; making
a total surcharge of $410.87. '
Daniel Connors was tho other super
visor last year. He spent $0,028.87.
Two of the items of his expenditures aro
Daniel Connors, 310 days, $020; Daniel
Connors, 180 days, $379. The auditors,
however, knockod off SIOB.BI as exces
sive horse hire and wages.
Together theso two supervisors spout
$11,500.75 last year.
FOSTER TOWNSHIP.
John W. Davis, ono of the supervisors,
turned in a bill for 307 days work for
himself, $400.50; Marshman's horse, 304
days, $008; Samuel Davis, 100 days, $160;
Samuel Davis, 89J4 days, $111.87. Tho
auditors charged back $152 excessive
horso hire, and $32.38 excessive pay to

John D. Davis was tho other super
visor. Ilis bill for personal services was
305J4 days, $458.25; J. J. Davis* horse,
304,'4 days, $009; and Samuel Davis, 247
days, $247. Tho auditors took off this
account $152.25 excess on horse.
In Foster tho Davis family sooms to
have been in it. The two John Davis',
supervisors, spent $0,179.85, though the
funds in the treasury amounted to only
$5,010.41 for their use, and the township
Is in debt $1,163.44 for tho year on road
account.
JOURNALISTIC.
Tho Sunday Truth, of Hazleton, made
its first appearance yesterday. Its ten
pages wore tilled witli bright mattor,
and it lias every appearance of a paper
which will till its field most creditably.
It had a largo sale here. Tho publish
ers are energetic young men who have
had much experience in local newspaper
work, and Truth ought to prosper.
The Shickshinhy Echo began Its
twenty-third year on Friday last. From
Its sprightlinoss one would judge it to bo
much younger. The Echo is in the front
rank of Pennsylvania weeklies, and is
well-printed and aldy edited by Mr.
Tubbs.
The Democrat of Shickshfnny is four
years old and continues to fulfill its mis
sion as the exponent of Democracy In
the socond and sixth legislative districts.
Editor Hcidicman is an entertaining
writer and manages to make his paper
interesting all the year around.
BASE BALL.
Ilazleton will open tho season at homo
on Saturday with tho Tigers. Neither
club has had any practice yot, but both
will make great efforts to carry off tho
game.
The Tigers' new uniforms arrived to
day. They are prettily gotten up and
will enable the club to appear well;
J. J. will roport for duty at
Shenandoah this week.
Ilaso ball will commence hero on April
28, with tho Hazloton Stato league team
as tho Tigers opponents.
Tho Foarnots have reorganized for

years at Drifton ball park.
Tho diamond in Ilazlo park, Hazle
ton, will be entirely rosoddod next week
under the personal supervision of Mann-,
gor Sliarsig, who Is endeavoring to make
his field equal to any in tho league.
Annual null Tonight.
Tonight tho St. Patrick's cornot band
will hold its annual Eastor Monday ball
at the opera house, and the event will
undoubtedly be one of the most success
ful of the season. Nothing has been
left undone to make tho evening a
pleasant one for all who may participate
in tho ball. Like on all former occa
sions the band boys have devoted several
weeks to making preparations for the
comfort and enjoyment of their patrons,
and from their h>qg experience in enter
taing tho public the ball tonight will
excel all previous efforts.

Shot Down by a Playmate.
Three young boys quarreled while
playing at Ashley on Thursday after
noon, and one of them was shot dead.
The boys, Elmer Mertz, aged 15; Charles
Ilargroaves, aged 13, and Henry Youn&,
aged 16, left the school and went to play
on a railroad bridge. Mertz left the
bridge and started to go toward the
school. The other lads followed, and
Ilargroaves, raising the pistol cried: "If
you don't come back I'll shoot." Mertz
made some reply and Ilargroaves Im
mediately lired.
Mertz fell face downward without a
cry, and Ilargroaves and Young turned
and ran away as fast as they could. No
attempt was made to follow them at the
time, as it was not known what injury
Mertz had received. He was picked up
and carried to his homo nearby, and
there it was found that the bullet had
penetrated the head a short distance
above the left eye. Mertz was uncon
scious and is yet very low. lie is
the only son of a widowed mother.
As soon as it was learned that the boy
was fatally injured a conple of consta
bles set out U) find Young and liar
greaves, and they were soon joined by
many young boys, who searched the
woods into which they had disappeared,
but could not find them until Saturday,
when tlio youthful murderer was arrest
ed at Nanticoke.
Position in the Coal Fight.
The refusal of the Reading Railroad
to submit to arbitration its claim to 21
per cent of the anthracite coal trade,
and the withdrawal of President Oly
phant, of the Dclewarc and Hudson
Company, from the committee of presi
dents appointed to select the arbitrators,
have put something of a damper on the
plans for settling the differences between
the anthracito companies, and it is
doubtful if any mooting of the presi
dents' committee will bo held this week,
as was originally intended. The position
taken by the Reading excited much
comment among those interested in the
coal roads, and was generally regarded
as being not unreasonable and not
necessarily offering any serious obstacle
to harmony among the different coal
companies. In past years the Reading's
proportion of the trade has boon as high
as 28 per cent, and 21 per cent is not
looked upon as being grasping. It was
stated that some of tho Reading
officials would go to New York this week,
when efforts will bo made to secure <
harmonious action.
More Trouble for the Cominlngionerg.
County Auditors Bennett, Westovur
and Morgan have officially notified the
the county commissioners to pay no
more money to Architect Myors, for the
plans of the now courthouse, because,
as the notice reads, "the contract is so
unusual in character, so improvident in
its terms, and so liabio to involvo the
people of tlio county in unnecessary ox
ponso, and the building proposed Is so
unfitted for the needs of tho county,
that we are of the opinion that you
have been deceived, and that It could
not and ought not to bo enforced against
tlio county, and therefore, give you
notico that we will not allow any fur
ther payments 011 it, and that If any are
made, you will be personally surcharged
witli such payments." It Is understood
that Hon. If. \V. Palmer is the attorney
for the auditors and has recommended
them to take tills step.

dreaded disease that science has been
