FREE LAND, PA., THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, IS9G.
INSPECTORS' REPORT,
i Investigation of tlio l'ittston Disaster Is
Said to He Thorough.
Mine Inspectors Stein, Roderick and
Hrennan, the commissioners appointed
bv the governor to investigate the Twin
shaft disaster, will submit their report
about the middle of this mouth. It will
be a comprehensive document, and be
sides covering the Twin shaft horror
completely, will suggest legislation
which it is believed will be suitable to
prevent the recurrence of similar acci
dents.
The report will be a combination of in
dividual reports furnished by each of
the inspectors. Several weeks ago these
were linished and presented to the gover
nor, but the latter, fearing that some
confusion might ensue, suggested that
the three members collaborate and pre-
I sent one report, which will be done and
| finished at the time mentioned.
The report will bo thorough. It will
go into the history of the mine, into the
facts and circumstances loading up to
the cavein, and to the methods pursued
to recover tho bodies. The report will
state that Superintendent Langan. one
of the men entombed, erred in judgment
in allowing the men to work in the
midst of the squeeze on that fatal Sunday
morning, Further it will say that oyon
though there were no squeeze, it was not
safe to work in tho mine at that time on
account of tho dangerous bodies of gas
which suddenly appeared.
The report will not censure Mine In
spector McDonald. It will argue that
as Mr. McDonald had half a hundred
collieries to look after, it could not be
expected that ho could visit any one or
more of thorn every week or two.
j The points of the report so fiir may
! thou be summed up as follows: 1. Dc
j seription of the mine and its pillars,
! chambers and gangways; theory of the
; defect in strata by dislocation. 2. The
j superintendent erred in judgment in al
lowing the men to go down with such a
dangerous squeeze in progress and with
such a sudden appearance of gas.
! it. The operators cannot be held rcspon
| sible for the presence of the men there
at that time. 4. Mine Inspector Mc-
Donald cannot be held responsible be
cause ho was not informed of the seri
ousness of the squeeze.
The report will recommend that the
number of inspectors bo increased, or
that there be assistants, that operators
and the inspector confer as to the man
ner of working the mine, that the work
ing of the mine should be from tin; foot
to the head, and not from the head to
the foot. Drive gangways from the
shaft into the coal and then start to
work from the far end of the gangway
into the shaft. The commissioners will
insist that this last recommendation bo
embodied in a law.
POLITICAL PICKUPS.

PAYMASTER DISAPPEARS.
C. IS. Wolfe* of Pittxton, Has Not ISeea
Seen Since Friday.
From the Wilkesburro Record.
Considerable excitement has been
caused in certain circles in Pittston for
the last few days by the sudden disap
pearance of C. R. Wolfe, paymaster for
the Newton Coal Company, the operators
of the Twin shaft. lie has been gone
since Friday evening and nothing has
been seen or heard of him since. Wolfe
has been engaged as paymaster for the
Newton Company for the past six years
and in addition he has also kept the
books for the Oirard Coal Company. He
was well liked by the officers of the com
pany and considerable responsibility
and large sums of money were entrusted
to him. It was his custom to keep a
record of the employes and make out
the checks for wages. Ho also made
the deposits of the company's money
and altogether handled thousands upon
thousands of dollars.
It seems that last Friday General
Manager Law discovered some error in
his accounts and spoke to him about it.
Mr. Law then went to Wilkesbarro and
did not return until Saturday morning.
When he reached the office he found a
'etter dated Friday evening, written bv
Mr. Wolfe, which stated that ho had
resigned. The keys wor| also enclosed.
Mr. Law stated that men had been
set to work auditing the hooks and ac
counts. Some deficiency had been
found, but he did not think it would
amount to a great deal. It, might, how
ever, be counterbalanced by an error in
the iigures further on.
Mr. Wolfe is about 40 years old and
has a wife a::d live children.
Twenty for Fifty.
From the Wilkesburro Leader.
A hit, of sharp work by a sharper or
crook Friday morning on Fast Market
street is worthy of note. The crook
walked leisurely along Hrewery Hill and
seemed to watch tin; people who came
behind him as well as those who passed.
At au opportune moment he was seen to
drop a handkerchief. Right behind wis
an innocent looking Hungarian. The
Hun stooped to pick up the bit of mus
lin, and as he did the sharp appeared on
the scene to inquire what he had found.
Unrolling the handkerchief a bright SSO
bill was exposed.
"Good!"said the Hun. "Good, again,"
said the sharp, "Let's divvy." The poor
Hun had S2O in his clothes which lie
gave the stranger, who immediately
went "out o' sight." Down town the
Hun tried to change the bill but it was
found to he a rank counterfeit.
All afternoon he was in t he Lxchange
hotel basement crying about the loss of
his S2O.
Cut 11 IH Wife's Throat.
George Van Horn cut his wife's throat
on Friday night at Scran toil, Indicting
a wound from which the hospital sur
geons say she will die. Van Horn and
his wife were separated, and under the
name of Mrs. Wostcott she conducted it
hoarding house on Franklin avenue.
Van Horn was semi about the place
frequently of lato and appeared to b<
watching for an opportunity to enter
the house. He accused her of unfaith
fulness and had her arrested. Then lie
threatened her.
On Friday night he gained entrance
to the house and came upon the woman
so suddenly she had no chance to es
cape. He grabbed her by the head and.
pushing her backward, quickly flashed
a large pocket knife across her throat.
The wife fell senseless, and before the
inmates of the house, were aware of the
tragedy Van Horn hud escaped.
Ki'i'p Your Name Itofore the Public.
Every person in business should re
member t hat the public has an exceed- '
ingly fickle memory. The buyers for
get you in a short while unless you do
something to keep your name constantly
before their eyes, and no one in business :
desires to be forgotten by the buyers of
the community. There are various J
methods of making a business name and
location familiar to tin; public, but none
has yet been devised which can take the
place of a local newspaper. As a modi- <
urn to bring together the one who wants
to sell and the one, who wants to buy the
local papers stand above everything else.
Space in them costs less, gives the busi
ness a standing in t lie locality where it
is established and if given ordinary at
tention pays for itself ten-fold.
There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to he incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescrib
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment, pro
nounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to bo a constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. lia'l's Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Chceev <k Co.,

cure on the market. It is taken in

NOT UP TO THE MARK.
EXAMINER BERRY SAYS DAVIS DID
NOT MAKE 90 PER CENT.
Fraud In Churned In tlio Recent Exami
nation of A pplicuntri fir Mine Inspector
of Thin Diitti.c It I Said Politics
Entered the Contest.
The recommendation made last Satur
day to Governor Bastings by tho board
of mine inspector examiners, that."Wil
liam 11. Davis, of Nesquelioning, bo ap
pointed inspector of this district, was
not unanimous, and the minority report,
which the TKIIUNK mentioned on Mon
day would likely be presented, is almost
ready and will be submitted to tin* gover
nor. It lias been prepared by John W.
Berry, of Pittston, one of the members
of the board of examiners, and, if his
statements can be. substantiated with
proof, it is time that the examining busi
ness, from the mine inspectors' board
down, should be given some attention by
the authorities.
The examination of applicants was
conducted during July at Wilkesbarre
l>y the board, which consists of tlio fol
lowing persons: Elmer B. Lawall and
YV ill i:iin It. Jones, Wilkesbarre; Authonv
Itilcy, Hazletou, and John W. Horrv
and Allen Moffat, Pittston. It was cur
rently reported during tho examination
and afterward that a man had been
••slated" for the position and would be
recommended if lie came anywhere near
the standard of efficiency required by
law, irrespective of what percentage,
might be made by all other applicants.
The examination, it was said, was
merely a formal outward compliance
with tho act of the legislature. The
r commendation, as made, therefore !
created no surprise, and very few, if j
any, of the men examined were disap- \
pointed at the result.
Four members of tin; board agreed in
recommending Mr. Davis. The dissent
ing member is Mr. Berry, who is a civil j
engineer and is not employed regularly !
by any of the coal companies or opera- '
tors, being in business on his own ac
count.
For tlio present Mr. Hcrry does not
deem It advisable to make public the
details of his report to tile Governor, as
that would give the other members of
the board an opportunity to countera t
ids arguments, lint the principal objec
tion it will contain will he the allegation
that none of the applicants examined
reached the standard percentage. Mr.
Horry said not one of them secured no
per cent to their answers, although Mr.
Davis' percentage was bolstered up to
ill In order that he. might stand at the
head.
The Wilkesbarre Itccovd states that
"the allegation lias been made that Mr.
Davis' appoinmout was brought about
by iiis political inlluonces—that during
the late congressional campaign Con
gressman heisenring had a valuable
worker in James 11. Davis, or Lansford,
and as a return favor the latter asked
Mr. belsenrlng to have his brother un
pointed Inspector or the vacant district.
This allegation is, however, strouglv
denied by members of tho examining
board. Mr. Merry does not favor the
present method of examining the appli
cants, lie believes tho examinations
should lie made in public before a judge
of the courts. The questions and the
answers einild then be seen by the
public. At present only tlio questions
are made public."
Mr. Ilerrv, it will be remembered, ob
jected last year to the recommendation
of the examiners reappointing Inspec
tors McDonald, ltodorlck and Williams.
their terms having expired. His ob
jections were on the ground that thoy
did not roach the required percentage
in answering the questions. His minor
ity report was presented to the governor,
hut the latter overruled the objections
and made the appointments as per the
recommendation of the majority. Then,
as now, rumor had it that politics enter
ed largely into the appointment in this
district, and that merit was overlooked
through t he necessity of paying political
obligations.
If tliii minority report, when made, is
strong enough to call public attention
to tlic present system and thereby in
augurate a demand for an investigation,
it will accomplish wonderful work. For
some time past the examinations as con
ducted by the mine inspectors* board,
some of the mine foremen's boards a d
some of the miners' boards, have been
subjected to much criticism. The laws
passed for the protection of mine em
ployes have been openly violated and
their provisions disregarded by some ex
aminers, and in justice to those affected
by placing unqualified men in responsi
ble positions there ought to be no delay
in having the entire system Investigated.
