O'Donnell Was Elected So
licitor oil July 22.
Received Three of the Five
Votes Cast at Meeting on
Above Date—Directors to
Elect Truant Officer.
Solicitor 11. J. O'Donnell, of Foster
township school board, appeared before
the directors at thoir regular meeting
on Saturday evening and presented
proof that the board had re-elected him
at a recent meeting. The paper read
by Solicitor O'Donnell claimed that on
the first ballot for solicitor on July 22
he received three of the live votes cast,
which was a majority and was sufflccnt
to elect hiin. Ho further notified the
board that he would hold it resposiblo
for his salary.
After an investigation of the claim, a
majority of the members agreed that the
point was well taken, and a motion by
Directors Zeistloft and Kcllar that R. J.
O'Donnell be chosen solicitor at the
same salary as last year received the
votes of Messrs. Keller, Mclliigh, Zeist
loft and Johnson, Messrs. ONeil and
Doudt voting no.
Agents for supplies were prosont and
the committee will examine samples
and compare pricos to report at the
next meeting.
A motion prevailed that the solicitor
endeavor to get $lO per day for each
school building used for elections.
While the roll was being called to vote
on the above motion a very amusing
thing occurred. A well known young
railroad man of Drifton startled the
directors and spectators by rising and
calling for the privilege of a vote on the
motion. On being asked by the. presi
dent when he became a school director
it dawned on the man that he had made
a mistake and lie took his seat amid
much laughter.
No action was taken in the matter of
placing J. V. Hlghams and Thos. Sar
ricks at the same salary as other gram
mar school teachers.
The board decided to elect a truant
officer by the votes of Messrs. Doudt,
O'Neil, Johnson and Mclltigh, Messrs.
Keller and Zlestloft voting no. The ap-
pointment went over.
Messrs. Keller and Zlestloft were ex
cused at this juncture, they having some
business to attend.
August Scott, representing the Hobart
Smith historial chart, spoke on the

FREELAND, PA., MONDAY, AUGUST 5, 1901.
train the striking employes and others
from Interfering with the machinists at
work in the company's shops at Drifton.
Robert Raskin, Jr., William Stronix,
Hugh McMenamin, John Ward and Al
bert Marsh man were also named in the
attachment because of their alleged par
ticipation in assaults upon the workers.
John Rirkbeck told of alleged Inter
ference while roturnlng from work on
different occasions. On the evening of
July 13 he was assaulted. Men stoned
him until the Freeland chief of police
assisted hi in to a car. On July 20
Andrew O'Donnell and others, he said,
committed a like assault.
For the striking machinists several
witnesses were sworn, and the defend
ants testified in their own behalf. The
lino of testimony was that they had
not interfered with the workers, but had
endeavored to persuade the men to quit.
11. A. Fuller and A. 11. McClintock
were for the company and John M.
Carr for the defendants. Judge Hal
soy's order follows:
"Now, August 3, 11)01, after full hear
ing, the motion for an attachment
against Andrew O'Donnell, Robert Jen
kles, Dominick Roczkowski and John
Raskin, for contempt in violating the
preliminary injunction, is made abso
lute, and attachment is allowed, not to
issue, however, until further order."
Volcd to Remain Out.
A committee representing the Drifton
shop strikers had a conference with
President Stearns, of Coxe Rros. Si Co.,
at Drifton this mornlYig. At 1 o'clock
this afternoon the strikers assembled at
the Municipal building and received the
report of the committee. The meeting
continued in session until after 3 o'clock.
The answer of the company was that
only one-half the former number em
ployed could be given work at the shops,
and that the present workers would be
retained in the company's employ.
The sentiment of the meeting was
overwhelmingly against accepting the
company's answer, and a vote resulted
in the strikers deciding to remain out
until Coxe Rros. & Co. accede to their
demands or take them back in a body.
On Saturday when a committee asked
for a conference they were informed
by Superintendent Smith that none
could he iiad if any niembcr of the
Dover family appeared on the committee.
