LUTHER C. SMITH, Superintendent. The Washburn Boycott. From the Wilkesbarre Newsdealer. The Wilkesbarre Record makes much fuss over the boycotting of Juror Wash burn and the fact that ho was discharg ed. We have not been able to learn the names of the men who called on Wash burn's employer. Mr. Hontz will not tell who asked him to discharge Wash burn. We are compelled to place the Wash burn episode in the same class as Judge Woodward's threatening letters, as part .of a plan to influence sentiment. Now we beg to offer a case of boycott whk'h we can prove. JAM es E. Roderick, the superinten dent tor A. S. Van Wlckle & Co. at (Coleralue, contributed SIOO to the fund to aid the widows and orphans at Lat liiner. immediately the operators and su perintendents asked Mr. Van Wicklc to discharge Mr. Roderick. They are ask ing for his discharge now. The Coal Operators 1 Association refused to meet with him. Are they anarchists? ff they don't like Mr. Roderick's ac tUrnk they need not meet him. They can tell him so. There isn't any law to stop that. If the Freeand people don't want to deal with Washburn can Judge Wood ward put them iu jail?

Frank Rent/, and John Fallon, at the January term of Schuylkill court on nineteen bills of indictment charging misde meanor. was the conviction yesterday id' Commissioner Charles A. Myers, a mem ber of the new hoard, on nine out of twenty-two counts. The case was on trial for the past two weeks and the jury was out eighteen and a half hours. The four convicted men will he sentenced in a few weeks. Tliis In Important, If True. Huzlctou Dispatch to JMiihi. Press. It was given out yesterday that Luther ('. Smith, of Drifton. superintendent of the Delaware, Schuylkill and Susque hanna Railroad, would he appointed the successor of A. P. Blakesloe, who re cently resigned from the superinti n dency of the coal branches of the. Lehigh Valley Railroad. President Walter took Mr. Smith to Drifton when lie lirst assumed charge of affairs at that place some years ago. Another Rockufello w Echo. t Among the eases disposed of this week in the superior court was that relating I the Evans estate, of Parsons. The case | was tried in this county some time ago ! and the decision of the Luzerne court is now affirmed. The case was as follows: John Evans, of Parsons, died some years ago and liis brother, Evan M. Evans, was appointed guardian, his duties be | ing to look after the estate, and as also i guard the interests of the widow and children. There was a lot on which ! there is a valuable hotel property, also | some money was left. Mr. Evans de posited the money in the Kockafcllow ; bunk and the entire sum was lost by the I hank's failure. Suit was brought to ru •over the amount from the guardian. The decision of the courts is that Mr. Evans is held responsible for the'money deposited for the children, but not for that deposited for the widow, on the ground that she was present when the money was placed in the bank. It was shown by the evidence that Evans had refused to loan the money on good se curity and that therefore lie was negli gent. In answer to that Evans said he did not think it safe to loan the money ! on the security offered. Tiiis decision, it is claimed, will have the effect of making guardians more j careful of the disposition of money In- I t rusted to their care. Yorktoivn Minor* on Strike. The .'HIP men employed at the York town colliery of the Lehigh Valley Coal Company failed to report for duty Tues day morning when the colliery whistle called the employes tp work, and a strike is now on. This decision was reached at a meeting of the i 'nited Mine Workers in Yorktown. on Monday night, but it was not thought that the men wore as determined as they have shown them selves to be by absenting themselves en tirely from the Colliery. Every thing is quiet about tiie works and no violence is feared by the officials. The cause of the strike is dissatisfac tion over the treatment of a fireman. John Boyle, who was reprimanded by Foreman Hayes for ncjt keeping up a good lire with the bird-eye coal used at the colliery. The fireman claimed that the coal was of such quality that it could not be used for generating sufficient steam and lie quit work. The matter was brought to the attention of the I'nited Mine Workers, who not!lied I Foreman Hayes that if the iireman was not reinstated they would order a strike. The company threatens to shut down the colliery altogether for an indefinite period. To Build Auotlier Any I u in. The directors of the Central poordis ; trict, of tiiis county, have decided to , build a new insane asylum. The pro posed building will accommodate about patients and will cost SIOO,OOO. The site of the structure will likely be at He treat, where the present poorhouse is located. There is pressing need for a new insane asylum in tiie upper end, in I view of the overcrowded condition of i the Danville and other state institu tions, and of the further fact that the ; VVernersvllle asylum, near Heading, and | the Hillside homo, Scranton. each con , tain twenty-five patients from that dis trict, which pays $1.7.") per week for the ; care of each. ! When the asylum is finished all per sons now in the state institutions will bo removed, and the state will pay to the district the sum of $1.50 per week for each patient. This will help cousidcr | ably toward paving for the building.

Committee Appointed to 111 vent igate an Industry Which Would Employ 1100 Skilled Workmen if Brought to l're land Good .Meeting bust Niglit. Last night's meeting of tin? Board of i Trade, in the borough council room. was well attended and the members j entered into tiie work of the organlza j tJon with greater enthusiasm than lias l been noticed for some time past, lufor i niation was given the Board that a largo : manufacturing firm, employing skilled workmen, is Uesirlous of starting a j branch which will employ about JOO j men. and it was suggested that Freo j laud should lose no time in presenting its claims for this industry. The parent 1 plant is located in a nearby city, has ; 1,800 men on its pay-roll, manufactures 'an article of general use and works j steadily. For obvious reasons the name of the linn and its location cannot be made public for the present, i The members generally were of the | opinion that no time ought, to he lost in j looking up this industry, and the follow , ing were appointed as a committee to make an investigation: VV. H. But/. William Williamson, Clias. Orion Stroll. Owen Fowler, B. F. Davis. Hugh Mal- I ioy and M. 11. Hunsicker. They are to , report to the Board next, Wednesday i evening, when it is expected that full particulars in regard to tiie induce ments the linn may require and the sta ; hilitv and condition of the business will ! lie made known. A letter was received from R. H. Wil bur, of the Lehigh Valley Railroad Com | puny, relative to trains and mail service. I The letter stated that mail left town at ..T4 p. m.. giving almost the same ser j vice as the early morning train did with Philadelphia and New York. Post master Davis stated that no mail was sent out of tho office to make connec tions witii that train. Industrial!* Liar* at Work. A. A.

Dennenny. one of the borough | school teachers, lias not paid her taxes. ; Mr. Baehman's books show that the lady j paid her taxes within the lirst sixty days ! and there was no basis for the circula ' tinn of the rumor. I Several other taxpayers in town have j been subjected to annoyance from simi i lar rumors, and if these reports con tinue to be spread some one is liable to | find iiis hands full of trouble. Persons | who pay their taxes promptly every year j deserve credit, and should not be I maliciously lied about by parties who are in a position to learn the truth. Brawn as Jurymen.
