Wandered Four Days In a Mine.
Andrew Screnock, a Polish miner, who
worked in the Exeter mine and lived in
Pittston, and who was missing since last
Thursday was found on Monday. His
friends claimed that he had not come
out of the mine and that he had been
lost in the workings. The report spread,
however, that he had gone to New York,
and no systematic search was made for
him.
On Monday morning the engineer at
the old Knight shaft discovered that
something was wrong with the air cur
rent. An investigation was made and
the missing man was found at tho foot
of the shaft. He was in a famished con
dition and looked like a corpse.
He said that while on his way ont of
the mine on Thursday night his light
went out and he lost his way. He wan
dered about in the darkness until he
came to tho place where he was found.
Here he fouud a wooden brattice, which
he tore down, thus disturbing the air
current and attracting the attention of
the fan engineer.

May He Asked to Pay the Loss.
The borough of Lchighton may be j
asked to pay damages as tho result of a
fire which destroyed the building oc
cupied by John W. Koons as a liquor
store on Friday night. For some time
past there has been a war between the
borough authorities and the water com
pany, which resulted in tho fire hydrants
being sealed.
After tho alarm was sounded
for the fire it was fully fifteen
minutes before tlie superintendent al
lowed tho seals to be opened. It is
claimed that the borough is liable for
tlie loss, because tlie taxpayers are com
pelled to pay a fire protection tax, which
should bring with it all safeguards. On
account of the dispute these were not
provided Friday night because the hy
drants could not be opened.
Joo Struclio Released.
Joe Stracho, the Upper Lehigh Hun
garian who attempted to murder Mrs.
Peter Groggo at that place on December
9, was tried at Wilkesbarre on the
charge of felonious wounding. He shot
the woman in tlie right leg, according
to her statement. Stracho, however,
maintained that the shooting was ac
cidental. The jury took his view of tlie
case, and he was acquittod. Tlie senti
ment of the people in Upper Lehigh was
strongly against tho prisoner, but tiiore
were no witnesses to tlie shooting other
than interested parties, and a verdict as
stated above was rendered on Tuesday.

COMMITTEE HAS APPROVED.
Proposition of tlie Silk Mill Company Is
Favorably Considered.
The executive committee of the Hoard
of Trade, which had the proposition of
the silk mill company under advisement
for the last three weeks, met in the
Central hotel parlors Tuesday night for
the purpose of giving the matter final
consideration. The promoters of the
now industry had representatives in
town, and the conference between these
gentlemen and the committee was
throughtly satisfying. The proposition
as presented embodied all features here
tofore enumerated, viz: the erection of a
two-story brick building, on purchased
ground, stocking the same with ma
chinery and giving a first mortgage bond
on the whole plant as security for a loan
of 815,000 by the citizens.
The committee approved of the
proposition, and decided to report the
matter favorably to the board at its
next meeting. Until this is done, no
definite action will be taken, but, after
consideration by the whole board, it
is likoly that steps will be taken to
make the industry a permanency in the
shortest possible time.
The mill will in all probability be lo
cated on Birkbock street, in the vicinity
of the Electric Light Company's station.
More than enough money for the re
quired loan has already been subscrib
ed by the citizens, and it is not likely
that the company will lack sufficient
backing in this respect.
Turning Prisoners Out of Jail.
Charles Chuchro, of Eckley, charged
with burglary, was acquitted yesterday
at Wilkesharre. The prisoner was in
jail since the early part of Soptomber.
and was charged with a felonious
assault upon Mrs. John Shedlak, his
boarding mistress, and while in an in
toxicated condition forced the door open
in ordor to roach her. Whon the matter
reached the hands of the grand jury the
indictment was changed to burglary,
hence his discharge. Ho was in Free
land last night and looks well aftor his
long confinement.
Services at St. Paul's Church.
Rev. R. C. Bacho, of Nanticoke, will
preach in St. Paul's P. M. church on
Sunday morning at 10.30 a. m. Ilis
subject will be "Missions," and a special
collection will be taken up during the,
services for missionary causes. In the
evening at 0.30 o'clock there will be re
vival services, and preaching on the
subject of "A Two-Fold Ruin."
Commencing at 7 p. m., revival ser
vices will be held at the church each
ovening during next week.
To Change the Trout Season.
A number of local anglers of Allen
town will have a law introduced at the
next session of tho legislature to change
the trout season, which now extends
from April 15 to July 15. It is proposed
to make the season from May 1 to Au
gust 1. It is contended that trout have
not a chance to get fat by April 15, and
that the weather is not favorable to
trout fishing so early. Tho change is
approved by Superintendent Crovoling,
of the state fishery.
Iloltl for I'nsslng HH<l Money.
Charles Porone and Charles Palma, ar
rested for passing counterfeit 85 bills at
Pittston, have been held by Commis
sioner Colbam at Scranton to answer
at the March term of the district court.
Frank Perone, a brother of Charles Per
one, is under arrest at Williamsport for
a similar offense. The three are believ
ed to be part of a gang engaged in cir
culating tho counterfeit money put out
by tho dealers recently captured in New
York.
lleat the Hoy's Teacher.
Miss Iluthmaior, a public school
teacher at Maltby, near Wilkesbarre,

her pupils, on Friday. Mrs. McCullough,
the boy's mother, entered the school
house on Monday, and without a word
of warning, flew at Miss Iluthmaior, and
beat her unmercifully, blackening her
eye, and cutting her cheek. Mrs. Mc-
Cullough was arrested.

Coal Tonnage of the Kailroad*.
Among thosn interested in coal trade
the belief is expressed that the plan for
the adjustment of the anthracite coal
output for this year will be successful,
but nothing definite will be known until
after today's meeting of the presidents
of the carrying companies. The figures
representing the tonnages of the respec
tive lines have been submitted to
Statistician W. W. Ruloy for revision,
and important changes are thought
probable. The principal objector to the
Reading's claim for 21 per cent of the
ftggrogato tonnage is the Delaware and
Hudson, and it is said the Pennsylvania
Railroad also opposes its claim.
According to the statements presented
at the meeting on last Thursday, the
tonnage of the different companies in
1895, also the per cent of ?ach of tiie
total output, was as follows: Reading.
9,095,059 tons, 21.47 per cent; Lehigh
Valley, 7,300,454 tons, 15.81 por cent; D.
L. Si W., 0,129,260 tons, 13.10 per cent:
Jersey Central, 5,388,194 tons, 11.57 per
cent; Pennsylvania Railroad, 5,025,045
tons, 10.79 per cent; Delaware and Hud
son, 4,347,843 tons, 9.34 per cent; I). S.
Si S., 1,905,784 tons, 4.11 per cent; Erie,
1,820,038 tons, 3.91 per cent; Pennsyl
vania Coal Company, 1,740,832 tons, 3.75
por cent; Susquehanna and Western,
1,492,244 tons, 3.00 per cent; Ontario and
Western, 1,424,407 tons, 3.02 per cent;
total, 40,545,070 tons, 99.99 per cent.
The tonnage in 1894 was 41,391,196
tons. For the four years preceding 1894
it was: 1893, 43,089,530 tons; 1892, 41,-
893,316 tons; 1891, 40,448,330 tons; 1890,
35,805,174 tons.
N arrow Fftcape from Flume*.
The Hotel Rroadway, the finest hotel
in Nanticoke, was entirely destroyed, by
firo at an early hour on Monday morn
ing. The inmates had a very narrow
escape. Between fifty and sixty persons
were in the hotel, and they wore almost
suffocated by the dense smoke, which
penetrated their rooms. They seized
whatever clothing they could get hold
of and got out as best they could, many
of them coming down the firo escapes j
with nothing on but their night clothes. !
Professor Miller, supertomlcnt of the
Nanticoke public schools, and his family
wero among those who narrowly escaped
suffocation. Mrs. Anna Harder was car
ried out in a fainting condition. J. J.
Kelly, an electrician, in endeavoring to
escape, fell and broke one of his toes,
and also sustained several severe cuts
and bruises.
None of the guests saved anything of
their personal effects. The total loss
will foot up over $20,000; partly covered
by Insurance. Tho loss of the hotel
building is $ll,ooo; insured for $0,500
Joseph Naguszewski, living next door
to the hotel, lost about $9OO by fire and
water; C. R. Eder, $3OO by water. The
origin of the fire is unknown.
Fined Twice for the Same OUVnso.
The fight for and against the closing
of cigar stores in Wllkesbarre on Sun
day has assumed an interesting phase
from a legal point of view, and the su
premo court will doubtless be called
upon to settlo it. A number of dealer
were arrested by the Sunday Obsorvauce
Society and given a hearing last Friday.
Tho day before the dealers, in order to
forestall the Sabbath Observance So
ciety, had each other arrested before
various aldermen and wero each fined $l.
Transcripts of these judgments were
taken and submitted to Alderman Par
sons. the plea of previous conviction be
ing based upon tho common law princi
ple that no man can bo punished more
than once for the same offense. Alder
man Parsons decided, however, to fine
each of the defendants $4 under the
statute, notwithstanding the plea. The;
defendants will take tho cases to court.
Permitted to Change lII* Plea.
On Tuesday afternoon the attorneys
for tho defense in the Gustavis murder
trial and the district attorney had a
consultation with Judge Woodward,
after which District Attorney Fell an
nounced that tho defense withdrew tin
plea of not guilty and entered a plea of
guilty of murder in the second degree,
which the commonwealth accepted.
The prisoner was remanded for sentence.
The crime for which Gustavis pleaded
guilty was committed at Pittston on
December 17 last. He quarreled witli
Folicilo de Angelo and stabbed him to
death.
A ItuHC Hall Suggestion.
The base ball sentiment here favors
the formation of a short circuit league,
to be composed of four or six towns.
Why not organize an Anthracite league,
and include Freeland, Tamaqua and one
other town with Mauch Chunk, Cans
ford and Lehlghtun?— Mauch Chunk
Democrat.
Tho suggestion is a good one and
should be encourgod. Wcatherly could
fill the vacancy.

QUINN WON THE BOUT.
DEFEATED CHARLES JOHNSON LAST
NIGHT IN A HOT CONTEST.
The Colored rut-Hint, "Scaldy mil," Put
Up Twenty-live Good Hounds Against
the Minnesota Man, and Was Awarded
tile Decision !>.v Tim Durst.
Tho most exciting glove contest that
over took place in lower Luzerne ended
at 1.20 o'clock this morning, when, after
a twenty-live round bout, William Qulnn,
a Kansas City negro, known in pugilistic
circlos as "Scaldy Bill," was declared by
tho referee to have bested ids opponent,
Charles Johnson, of Minneapolis. The
contest took place at Molinky's hull, on
Fern street, just outside tho borough
limits, and 550 people were crowded into
the space around tho twelve-foot ring.
Sporting men from all parts of tho state
were in attendance, and all the promi
nent pugilists of the coal regions were
thoro.
The doors were opened shortly after 8
o'clock, and the crowd poured in at $1
per head until the hall was overcrowded.
The usual delays attending such affairs
occurred, and it was not until 11.30
o'clock that the principals appeared.
"Scaldy Iilll" was tho lirst to enter
the ring. lie was seconded by Joe I'nr
coll, of Dubuquo, lowa. Johnson en
tered a few minutes later, with Walter
( ampbell, of Philadelphia, as ids second.
Both men received liberal applause, and
as they sat facing each other the audi
ence took advantage of the opportunity
to make comparisons.
At 11.40 o'clock Tim Ilurst, of Ash
land, whose fame as a National League
umpire aud a referee is general, stepped
into the ring with two pairs of light
gloves. Peter McCloskcy, of Ashland,
was selected as timekeeper, and tho men
were ordered to prepare. Johnson of
fered a 875 bet that he would win tho
"go," and 825 of it was covered by tho
colored man.
The start was made at 11.47 o'clock,
and right from the start the contest was
a hot one. All doubts as to whether it
was on its merits wore soon dispelled,
and those of tho audience who beforo
had no choice, soon picked their favo
rites.
Qulnn won many friends at tho outset
by tho style ho pushed the fighting
during the lirst half of tho contest, lie
punished Johnson severly, but the latter
took it well ami camo up each round
with but little signs of fatigue. For
some time the white man acted on the
defensive, satisfied only to stop Qulnn's
rushes. Campbell, however, urged him
to load oftenor as the light progressed,
and at times he did his share in making
tho bout interesting.
Throughout tho affair the negro un
questionably had the best ot tho fight,
and when tho twonty-flfth round ended
at 1.20 o'clock tho decision of Referee
Hurst, that he awarded the coutost and
the 8200 purse to Qulnn, was received
with general satisfaction. Both men
were In fair condition, and neither were
disfigured or cut at the end.
Very good order was maintained dur
ing th(! evoning, and thoro was no
trouble of any kind. Both men and
their friends expressed great satisfaction
at the Impartial troatmont accorded
them by tho audience, and Qulnn said
Freeland was the first town in which ho
has entered the ring against a white
man where ho was not Insulted on ac
count of his color.
As tho audience was leaving the hall
the floor sank about throe inches, and a
rush was made through tho various
exits. No damage, however, resulted,
and the place was soon emptied.

THE FIGHT BV BOUNDS.
1. Qulnn started tho mill with first
blow on Johnson's body, and rushed the
fight until a left-hander from Johnson
sont him on his knees; ho rose and push
ed his man hard until time was called.
2. Qulnn rushed, pushing Johnson
against the ropes, the latter returning
some of the blows; honors about oven.
3. Johnson tried to reach Qulnn, but
the latters agility and scientific ducking
prevented him; Qulnn got in a right
hand swing which gavo him the first
clean knockdown; ho followed by chas
ing Johnson to tho ropes, where he went
down as time was called.
4. Opened with clinching, followed by
aggrossivo fighting by Johnson; tho lat
ter failed to guard himself and was
knocked to his knees. Both played for
wind to tho end.
5. Qulnn opened with rushes, pushing
Johnson into the ropes and playing on
his breast with telling effect; reopened
a scratch on Johnson's 4ace and drew
first blood.
6. Qulnn continues tho rushes, which
aro met hotter by Johnson in this round;
both men fought hard until time ex
pired.
7. Johnson still acted on the defen
sive, trying to guard against further
punishment, his body now commencing
to show the effects of Quinn's work.
8. This was a round of dodging on the
part of Quinn, who hit and ducked
quickly several 'times In rapid succes
sion, Johnson satfslied to avoid the
