To Test Anthracite Coal.
Henry 8. Fleming, secretary of the
Anthracite Coal Operators' Association,
has sent the following letter to Hon. M.
It. Williams, of Wilkesbarro:
"Relative to the matter of anthracite
coal in the navy, about which I wrote
you some thne ago, I have just returned
from Washington, where I had an inter
view with the chief of the navy bureaus
and the assistant secretary of the navy.
They have now promised that as soon as
a satisfactory vessel Is available for the
purpose they will have it detailed to
make an extended series of tests of the
various kinds and sizes of anthracite
coal, which shall be suggested, for the
purpose of deciding, finally, whether or
not anthracite will bo suitable for naval
"I beg that you will use all the in
fluence that you can bring to boar at the
proper time, of which I will advise you.
to urge the selection of the cruiser Mar
blehcad. The, ratio of her great surface
to heating is Ito 28.r and further, her
captain, B. S. McCalla, Is an exceedingly
earnest advocate of anthracite for naval
use.
"I will keep you Informed of any de
velopments that may come up in this
matter, and hope you will, in the mean
time, tako any steps that may suggest
themselves to you to further it."

tion will take effect on September 15, at

already Invested. He and two export

Butte, will succeed him at Anaconda.

FIREMEN'S TROUBLES.
Cleuring TlienitielvoH of
by a Councilman.
Last, night's meeting of the Citizens'
lloso Company was largely attended,
duo to the fact that aomu of the mem
bers wore to bo placed on the rack on
the charge of breach of conduct. The
accused members wore Chief Patrick
Welsh, Secretary Timothy Boyle, Treas
urer John M. Powell and E. P. Galla
ghor. The troublo arose from remarks
made lately at a borough council meet
ing by Councilman DePiorro, who, it is
alleged, based his statements 011 In
formation given him to the effect that
the recent requisition for more
hose and apparatus made by the firemen
was not legally authorized by the Hose
Company and that a quorum was not
present at the meeting at which it was
decided to make the requisition.
Councilman DoPlcrro, having refused
011 the 1 Oth Inst, to appear and substan
tiate the allegations concerning the
company made by him, the firemen then
docidod to investigate on their own ac
count, and a committee was appointed
for this purpose. Their report impli
cated the members named above.
All the accused were present last
night. Messrs. Welsh, Boyle and Powell
gave statements satisfactory to tho com
pany as to what they had said in answer
to interrogations put to them by Coun
cilman DePierro at the time he spoke to
them, which, by the way, was two weeks
after the council had acted upon the
requisition. These three were then ex
onerated from all charges.
Mr. Gallagher was tho last to bo
called upon for bis explanation. He
protested against the presence of re
porters and non-members, and 110 action
being taken on tho protest ho left the
meeting. A committee of two was
again sent to invito Councilman De-
Pierro to attend the meeting, in order
that all the facts could be brought out
before taking action. Tho committee
did so and reported he would not come.
The investigation cominitttee then
reported that they had heard Mr. Gal
lagher say in the presence of the coun
cilman that It was ho who told Mr. De-
Pierro and that it was true there was
not a quorum at the meeting in ques
tion. The roll hook of tho company
showed tliat a quorum was present at
the opening and closing on the date
upon which the requisition was made
and that tho action of tho company was
legal and authorized.
A resolution expelling Mr. Gallagher
immediately followed and it was passed
by tho required two-thirds vote.
The per capita tax to tho State Fire
men's Association was ordered paid.
The selection of a delegate to attend the
state convention at Lebanon was laid
over until tho next meeting.
Thomas J. Moore, Edward Doggett
and Patrick Breslin were proposed for
active membership.
School Hoard Meeting.
The borough school hoard met in
special session last evening with all the
members except Mr. Krotumns present.
Bills of THIIIUNK, publishing audit, $0.70,
and Cross Creek Coal Company, coal, SO.
were ordered paid. It was decided to
pay the interost on the bonds at the
next meeting. A communication from
the Hudson School Furniture Company,
relative to money due tlieui and tho
buying of new goods, was read and laid
over. The teachers' and pupils' com
mittee reported rules and regulations
for teachers and pupils. They were
instructed to add the duties of the
janitor to the report.
The text hook committee reported a
list of hooks and supplies for adoption,
to the amount of $315.07. The report,
was accepted and supplies are to be
ordered. The salary of janitor was
fixed at $25 per month during school
term. All mem hois voted for the in
crease oxcept Mr. Sweeney.
Tho building committee reportod hav
ing received bids for the cleaning of the
Daniel Coxe school as follows: S. B.
Vanhorn, $18; Mrs. Schaub, $10; Mrs.
Douiin, sl2. The latter was awarded
tho work, also tho Hill school at $5.
Mrs. Sweeney was given the cleaning of
the Eckley B. Coxe school, as per her
hid of $7. A hill of $8 having been re
ceived for South He her ton old building,
it was considered too high. The hoard
sot tho price of cleaning the South llub
crton buildings, as follows: New build
ing, $10; old, s(>. The committee was
ordered to have rubbish removed from
tho now building as per an offer of 25
cents for a single load.
The board will meet again August 24.

A Preacher's Hold KHCiipe.
Rev. W. S. Anderson, a meek-looking
minister, who had been confined in
Wilkesbarro lock-up for tho past two
weeks, pending extradition papers asked
for by Maryland authorities, escaped
from his cell in the staton house Tuos
day morning and is now at liberty. His
escape is a shock to the local police
authorities, who were taken in by tho
suuve Mr. Anderson, and who regarded
him as too innocent to attempt such a
thing.
Rev. W. S. Anderson was arrested at
Kingston two weoks ago on complaint
of authorities at Cumberland, Md., who
said he was wanted there for embezzle
ment and making false representations
in regard to a certain saving fund of
which he was tho agent. Patrol Driver
Wolfe went to tho room that morning to
take the minister his breakfast, but his
suspicions were aroused by finding tho
door barricaded. A chair had been
placed under the knob on the inside,
and it required some time to force tho
door. Wolfe found the room ompty. An
iron bar on the window had been broken
off and bent upwards, making an open
ing 10x18 inches, through which the
minister escaped.
The distance was twenty feet from
tho window to tho ground, but Ander
son had tied a blanket to the bars and
used that as a rope to reach the ground.
A twenty-foot fence was scaled in some
man nor and another blanket was used
to get down on the other side.
Willi tlio Rough Hitlers.
From the Huzleton ttontinol.
It has been four years and more since
Henry Mans last heard from his son
Charles, who left his home and depart
ed to seek his fortune. His father had
grown to think of him as dead, but was
surprised and delighted to receive a
letter yesterday eight pages long con
taining the intelligence that tho writer
was well and describing his adventurers.
The letter was indeed interesting read
ing, for Charlie is a member of Roose
velt's Rough Riders, and was with them
in the famous battle of El Caney.
The Rough Riders will go down in
history as valiant horocs, who fought
and won against heavy odds, and Mr.
Mans can well be proud to have a son
who as a member of that famous band
deserves honor and praise. If he ever
returns to Hazleton he will be a person
age of Importance, for who Is not anx
ious to hear from tho lips of an eye wit
ness the story of that awful battle in
Santiago, and to shake the hand of a
man who fought with such a group of
horocs as Roosevelt's Rough Riders.
Judge Storm Improving.
Late news received from Danville
sanitarium, where ex-Congressman John
B. Storm is confined, is very encourag
ing. On Saturday, for the first time, ho
came down for a meal. Judge Storm's
condition is so much more favorable that,
his wifu, who has been In constant at
tendance, will return tomorrow. Judge
Storm's many friends are more hopeful
ut tho present time of his recovery than
for some time. While his condition is
much improved, there is little possibility
that the Democratic workers of the
Eighth district will receive any assist
ance from Judge Storm during the
coming campaign. The nomination of
Judge Jenks was very pleasing to the
judge, and but for his recent, illness he
would have given the Democratic ticket j
hearty support.

Charleston and Baltimore.
The Spaniards say that the Ameri
can tire mostly fell short. The only
effective fire was from a small gun
l>oat close to the shore, that was
armed with quick-:*!ring guns. They
also assert that the Americans lost
heavily in storming the defences ow
ing to the faulty construction of their
lntreiichineuts, which the Spaniards
commanded from the heights, from
which they poured a galling tire upon
the Americans.

The Spanish trench extended around
Manila at a distance of from two to
four miles from the walled city. The
circle was ten miles in circumference.
It was impossible to hold so long a line
against the American attack.
It is understood that Admiral Dewey
and Hen. Merrltt Issued orders to
spare all but the armed defences, con
sequently the town was little dam
aged.
There has been some street fighting
between insurgents and Spaniards In
the outskirts, but good order is main
tained within the walled city.
