FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, APRIL 12, 1900. MINERS IN SESSION. National Prewirtnnt A (Id th* Union Men of the I'pper Ztegion. The miners' delegates from Anthra cltß District No. 1, of tli Unltnd Mine workers of America, extending from Forest City to Glen Lyon, met at Wilkesbarre on Monday and Tuesday. National President Mitchell was present both days. The main thing to be con sldeie l was the request to be submitted to the operators and this took up most of the time. The nature of the request was not given out for publication, but the Record says it learned from one of the men that an effort will be inado during tho next month or two to have an understanding with the operators of the entire region respecting every thing concerning which there is at pres ent dissatisfaction. An effort will be made, to bars a uni form scale of wages, which will mean that In nearly every instance there shall be an advance. The scale will be sub mitted to all of the operators between Fnrest City and Glen Lyon. Tho long talked of powdar question will also be brought up and an effort will be made to have a reduction. These will bo the main things to bo submitted to the operators. Before the requests are submitted an effort will be made by District No. 1 to hare the unions in the other anthracite districts join In a similar movement, so that there may be uniformity of action. During the session an address was de livered by President Mitchell, In the course of which he said: "If the miners do their duty there will be changed conditions bofore the snow flies. At any time there is a fighting chance we are willing to make an at tempt for an amelioration of present grievances. Although not favorable to unreasonable strikes, when reasonable demands are refused I say strike and strike until you win. "There is a large intermingling of nationalities in the anthracite coal fields. Nationality should not be a factor for dissension among miners. The opera tor does not require the man who mines coal to be an Englishman, or an Irish man, or a Welshman, or a Polander, or a while or black man. He wants the cheapest miner. Lot the minors con sider themselves as minors Irrespective of nationality. Let them join the or ganization and in a very short tlmo there shall be no cheap minor, but miners paid a fair day's wages for a fair day's work. "Partisan politics must be kept out of the organization, l'artisan politics is too bitter in this country to be intro duced into a labor organization. Poli tics and labor do not make a composite mixture. We have more than enough of disrupting influouces without Intro ducing this element into our organiza tion. "ISeware of the character assassin in your union. Tho man who cannot openly make his charge, if lie has any to make, before the man lie accuses, should be driven from your organiza tion." Charged With Killing a I'oliceinan. Thomas Luddon was put 011 trial at Scrauton 011 Monday for tho killing of Police Officer Patrick RafTerty at Old Forge 011 Sunday, December 7, 181KI. The entire day was consumed In secur ing a jury. The crime for which Dud don is being tried grow out of tho dis turbances arising from the strike at Jermyn & Co.'s mines. Luddon was acting as a deputy sheriiT. After work was resumed he was employed as a watchuian. He became embroiled In several altercations with his fellow workmen, with whom he was very un popular. On Sunday evening Luddon went to the engine-house of the break er, where he placed three of the em ployes under arrest. A large crowd of persons soon congregated at the break er. Among them were Police Officers RafTerty and Thomas McKcnna. As the two officers entered a shot was lirod and RaiTerty fell, mortally woundod. McKenna was also wounded. Wounded in the Philippines. Of the nine Freeland boys who are enrolled under Uncle Sam's flag in the Philippines the lirst to meet a bullet lired by the enemy Is Harry Dougherty, a soil of Patrick Dougherty, of Wash ington and Walnut streets. His wound is a serious one, but it is not believed to be dangerous. He Is receiving treat ment at one of the army hospitals near Manila. Harry is well known to our townspeople and the news of ills mis fortune will cause regret among his friends. He is a member of Troop I, Fourth cavalry. This troop has seeu active service from the beginning of the war, and two horses were shot under Dougherty before he received his wound. Kaster Monday Ilall. The annual hall of St. Patrick's cornet band will be held next Monday evening at Yatines' opera house, and the members have all the arrangements completed to make the occasion an en joyable one for their frleuds. The Easter Monday balls of the past have always boon successful, and tho coming one promises to Tie 110 exception to the rule. The dance music will be furnish ed by DePierro's orchestra. POLITICAL POINTERS. Notwithstanding the fact that the nominee of Monday's convention is diametrically opposed to the methods, aims and principles of the "insurgents" of his party, the chief organ of the anti- Quayites in this district lost no time in falling in lino and proclaiming Its al legiance to Mr. Ha worth. The Sentinel scented a new daily in its field and the least sign of wavering would have brought on the scene a vigorous com petitor for Republican favors. The Republican candidates for county offices who have announced themselves thus far are: Benjamin R. Jones, of Warrior Run, for district attorney; Reese Lloyd, of Freeland, and John Miller, of Hazleton. for clerk of courts; James W. Moore, of Slocum, and John Bersch. of Kingston, for prothonotary; A. G. Watson, of Duryea, and S. H. Sutliff, of Shleksbinny, for jury com missioner. Few conventions Held by Republicans please as many people as the late legis lative gathering. In Mr. Haworlh the Quayites believe they have a winner, while the Democrats think him an easy victim. The "anti-Quay ites hold the balance of power, and few of tlieiu are talking for publication. An effort will be made by certain anti- Quay Republicans to foist upon the Democratic legislative ticket a candi date who would serve their purposes as fully as one of themselves. Nothing, we are informed, will be lacking to accom plish this object. The most disgusted set of politicians in the state are the Quay leaders at Wilkesbarre. Their defeat on Monday in four of the six districts has taught them that tho way of the transgressor is not plain sailing. Hazleton Republicans. Including those friendly to Quay, made wry faces when they saw the Freeland candidate win ning at Monday's convention. BRIEF ITEMS. John Meagbem, aged 28 years, of Mauch Chunk, pleaded guilty in court at Mauch Chunk, to having broken open the trunk of Martin Gallagher, one of his father's boarders, and having stolen 82115. Judge Craig sentenced him to a term of one year's solitary confine ment at hard labor in the Eastern peni tontlary. The deud was committed less than two weeks ago. Wo iearn from an authorities source that matters pertaining to the construc tion of a trolley line between this city and Wilkesbarre are being pushed with all possible vigor. The money has all been subscribed, several liues surveyed and there is every reason to warrant the statement that the new road will posi tively lie constructed this summer. —Standard. A letter written home by John Boyle, of MeAdoo, from the Philippines, states that Henry Griffiths, who enlisted in the army at Hazleton a year ago, was recently captured and put to death by the Filipinos. Boyle and Griffiths and a number of other men from Company G, Nineteenth infantry, were ambushed, but all escaped except Griffiths. Owing to a big rush of orders Horn tho Lake. Erie district, the Union Coal Company at Shamokin gave notice yes terday that the collieries, employing 4,000 men and hoys, in the Shamokin district, will be worked all week and the best part of the month, and that after May 1 stoady time will likely re sult. Prison Employe* Appointed. The Lenahan faction of tho Demo cratic pany of this county met with a severe defeat on Tuesday, when the prison commissioners held a meeting and ousted from office a number of em ployes in the county jail who were friendly to the Democratic boss. The board consists of County Commissioners Finn, Jones and Hay, who are members by virtue of their office, and John J. Brazelle and Colonel E. B. Beaumont, who were appointed by tbe court last week. Brazelle and Beaumont are Democrats, but formed a combination with Hay, one of the Republicans, thereby controlling the board without requiring assistance from Finn, who is a staunch follower of the Lenahan Hag. Tho combination made the following appointments: Warden, A. W. Jack son; deputy, A. E. Detro; matron, Mrs. A. W. Jackson; physician, Dr. Wolfe: watchmen, Frank Meehau, Miners Mills; John Kinney, James Gibbons. Plains; James Quinnan, Pittston; R. C. Hitchler, Nantlcoke; Frank Lynch, Thomas Kearney, Wilkesbarre. Death Wiped Out Family. Death this week wiped out the family of John Cummings, near St. Clair. The family consisted of parents and one son. Four days ago the aged mother died, and her funeral was held on Tuesday. Wednesday night her unmarried son, Martin, aged about 50 years, fell from his chair and died suddonly. Ten min utes later his father expired from the shock of his double loss. The latter was about 80 years old, and had been confined to bis bed for some time. These three were the only occupants of the old homestead, In which the family had lived for the past sixty years. HAWORTH NOMINATED. FreeliiDri Cnnillilutx Wins Republican I.eglslutive Nomination. Harry \V. Haworth, of Freeland, was named by ihe Republicans of the Fourth legislative district on Monday is their candidate for Hie legislature, and A. M. Eby, of Ilazleton, and Chester Kerbangh, of Hazle township, were seleeted as delegates to the Re publican slate convention. Up to a short time before the conven tion opened there were three candidates in the lieid, William Hughes and Wil liam D. Gerlock, both of Hazlcton, being aspirants for the honor captured by Mr. Haworth. At a caucus held by the Quay forces it was found that fourteen of the twenty-five followers of the ex- Cll ited States senator wore for Haworth, and at this point Hughes withdrew and gave his support to the successful can didate. The convention was hold at the Cot tage hail and was opened by District Chairman W. L. Richards. William Kemp and C. W. Wilde contested for tiie chairmanship, and the former won. John Powell, of Upper Lehigh, and Samuel Uundry, of Stockton, were voted for secretary, and Mr. I'owell was elect ed. For the legislative nomination At torney Brown nominated Mr. Haworth and William Young named W. D. Ger lock, of Ilazleton. The lirst and only ballot taken resulted as follows: Ha worth, J4Uerlock, The nomi nation was enthusiastically received, and the nominee made a brief address, after which the usual resolutions were adopted. Ex-Register Hiram Kuntz was chosen as district chairman and Jonathan Leib ensberger district secretary. The convention throughout was in the hands of the Quayites and the result was attained in spite of extraordinary efforts put forth by prominent people in the district and county who are opposed to Quayism. The convention was attended by near ly all the prominent politicans of both parties in the district. The nominee, H. W. Haworth, has been a resident of the district for sever al years. He is employed by Coxe Bros. & Co., but is favorable to the creation of a new county. He has taken an active part in borough and district poll tics for several years, and has held several positions in the party, but has never before aspired for anything more important than' an election office at the hands of the voters. George J. Hartman, anti-Quay, of Wilkesbarre, was nominated in the First district. E. A. Coray, anti-Quay, of West Pitts ton, was renominated In the Second dis trict. Dr. William T. Mahon, anti-Quay, of Nantieoke, was nominated in the Third district. William J. Strange, Quayite, of Plains township, was nominated in the Fifth district. Philip Drum, anti-Quay, of Drums, was nominated in the Fifth district. Used an Knglne in Cliase. Chief of Police Kline and two officers of Wilkosbarre made a daring capture of a desperate gang Tuesday night- Word was sent to police headquarters that live tramps had entered the store of P. N. Murray, in the southern part of the city, and, after assaulting the pro prietor, had stolen a lot of clothing. The men made way with their booty and then started out of town byway of the Pennsylvania Railroad. The police,-boarding an empty engine, ran down the railroad until they over took the tramps, The latter resisted and there was a hard scuffle, but the officers finally got their men handcuffed and brought them back to the city. The prisoners gave their names as Thomas Williams, Arthur Harrington, David Sullivan, John Thomas and Wil liam Blakoly. Telephone Men Organize. A secret meeting of the representa tives of ihe independent tolephone com panies of Pennsylvania and New Jersey was held at Ilarrlsburg on Tuesday. The meeting was for the purpose of or ganizing an independent telephone asso ciation of these states for the purpose of mutual advancement and obtaining long distance surviee for the various local telephone companies. The organization elected C. W. Kline, of ffazleton, as president. Two Remarkable Girts.
