GUARDS SHOOT
INTO A CROWD
Special Officers Cause an
. Outbreak at Duryea.
One Striker Shot in the
Knee and Two Coal and
Iron Policemen Beaten in
the Scrimmage.
Shots fired by guards at the Warnkn
washery, Duryea, yesterday afternoon
incited an attack by several hundred
men and boys in which one of their
number was shot, and led to an assault
upon two men, one a coal guard.
Twenty-four of the coal guards and
watchmen have been arrested and are
held under bail. Only the efforts of the
local police and the coolness of the offi
cers of the mine workers prevented an
outbreak.
The Injured men are: Henry Collins,
Srantou, a coal and iron guard, bead
cut and bruised. An unknown man,
badly beaten on the head and face.
Andrew Uravltch, shot in the left leg
between the knee and ankle.
The attack was made between 2 and 3
o'clock. A large crowd was wrought up
to such a pitch of excitement by the
washery guards' taunts that It advanced
upon the workings. Behind the barbed
wire barricade the guards, fifteen in
number, wore posted, armed with Win
chester repeating rifles. The trouble
was caused by a shot fired from the
washery at a man in the crowd who ran
close to the washery. Stones followed
and scores of them rattled on the sides
and roof of the washery and whizzed
near the men on guard.
The guards fired some twenty or
thirty shots before tho crowd began to
withdraw, carrying off Andrew Uravltch,
who was shot through tho left leg,
between the knee and ankle. A few of
the guards were slightly injured by
stones.
While this was bolng done Mr. Warnko
telephoned tho sheriff's office and Dep
uty Sheriff Rhodda, who with nine dep
uties had left Duryea at noon, hurried
back.
At tho same time Chief of Police Cos
grove, of Duryea, went to the washery
and placed fifteen guards and George
Warnke, a brother of the owner, under
arrest and took them to tho borough
lockup. On the way Henry Collins, a
guard, broke from the ranks and ran
for the railroad station, a short distance
away. The crowd gave chase and over
hauled him. Ho was knocked down
avd beaten, and when picked up was
unconscious and bleeding.
Upon tho arrival of Deputy Rhodda,
he took tho seven men at the washery
in custody and lodged them in the lockup
with tho guards and there they wore
also placed under arrest by the borough
authorities. All of them wore armed.
The arrival of Vice President Adam
Ruscavago and Organizer Schlosser, of
tho United Mine Workers, resulted in
calming the crowd and after most of
them had boen dispersed, Burgess Bur
lington wont to the lockup and there
held all the prisoners under 83,000 ball.
A special train was run as close to tbe
lockup as possible and then, with
twenty-five deputies to guard them and
keep back the crowd, whllo tho United
Mine Workers' officers aided, tho coal
guards were escorted to tho car, taken
to Wilkesbarre and lodged in jail.
Frederick Warnke, the owner of tho
washery, said: "1 have asked Sheriff
Jacobs to request that troops bo sent to
Duryea to guard the and pro
tect our men while wo work. We cer
tainly need them."
Burgess Burlington said: "All is
(juiot now, and I do not expect there
will be any further trouble. Wo do not
need troops. Tho local police can man
age tho situation eusily with a littlo help
from the sheriff. All we need is eight
or ten deputies at the washery, and
there will bo no trouble In town."
Sheriff Jacobs said that he did not
think there was any occasion for calling
for troops unless tho situation grows
more serious.
Light Question Bothers Others.
That Freeland is not the only town
In the county where tho light question
Is troubling councllmen and taxpayers
Is shown by tho following correspon
dence in the Wilkesbarre Record from a
citizen of Edwardsvillo:
"On Tuesday Burgess Dando notified
the president and mombors of the town
council of Edwardsville that ho dis
approved of all actions of that body
regarding tho renewal of tho contract
with the present electric light company
for furnishing light to the borough.
This actiou was taken because he was
FREELAND, PA., FRIDAY, AUGUST 15,. 1902.
convinced that the borough would bo
enabled to save a large amount of money
and secure better lights.
"The council recently passed an or
dinance providing for the renewal of
the light contract with the present
company for a period of ten years at
the rate of |7O per year. This ordinance
was rushed through the council, when
only six were present, and it is under
stood that a number of the council
meu who voted for the measure now
desire a reconsideration. Another light
company at present stands ready
to enter into competition with the old
company.
"The b<srough of Plymouth recently
executed a contract by which It secures
lights at the rate of 950 per light per
year, or a saving of B'JO per light over
the terms socured by our council. Bur
ross D&ndo's action on Tuesday should
meet with the hearty approval of every
citizen and there is little doubt that if
the suggestion contaiuod in his notifi
cation is followed the borough will he
saved several thousands dollars. It'
remains for the members of the council
to follow the initative of the burgess
and maintain the same public spirit and
the community will be greatly benefited.''
Barbed-Wire Fence Erected.
That the shade trees and green grass
which lino the east side of Centre street,
botween the Lehigh Valley tracks
and Coxe addition, are not to be enjoyed
by tho hundreds of idlu men and boys of
town was forcibly demonstrated yester
day, when a gang of men in the employ
of Coxe Bros. & Co. began placing a
barbed-wiro fence around this loitering
ground.
Tho spot has been a favorite place all
summer for strikers and others to gather
aud spend their leisure hours, and no
reports of iujury t > tho trees have evor
boen hoard. Tho action of tho Drifton
corporation in shutting them out is
amusing to tho people affected and is
looked upon as auoth<>r exhibition of
the petty spito-work which finds so
much favor with those in charge of the
Coxe properties.
Held Under SI,OOO Bail.
Michael Mackaravlch was arrostod at
his homo in Upper Lehigh yesterday
morning by Constable Zlegler, of Ilazle
ton, charged with being one of tho
principals in the attack on the Hoffman
and Botterly homes in Upper Lehigh
some weeks ago. The accused man was
taken to Hazleton and arraigned before
Alderman lleidenrelch. He was com
mitted to tho city lockup for a further
hearing.
The prisoner was given a hearing this
morning and was held under 91,000 bail
to answer tho charge of riot. The
charge of house-breaking, also preferred
against him, was continued for the
present, on account of a lack of evi
dence.
Mackaravich will be taken to tho
county jail tomorrow morning unless
ball is secured.
Convention at Wilkesbarre.
The forty-third state convention of
the A. O. H. will bo held at Wilkesbarre
next week, beginning on Tuesday, and
will be in sosslon for four days. There
will be an attendance of over 400 dele
gates, representing all the important
cities in tho state. There are forty-five
counties organized with 330 divisions
aud a membership of 35,000. One of
the most interesting features will bo tho
eloction of state officers. Luzerne will
have a candidato in tho person of John
P. Gibbons, of Hudson, who seeks re
election as state secretary.
The parade on Thursday will be one
of tho features of tho week, and should
the weather be pleasant it will be one
of the largest of tho kind ever hold at
the county seat. A picnic at Mountain
Park will follow thep&rado.
Search For Missing Heir.
George Schaeffer, of Hazleton, is going
on a strange quest that will ultimately
take him around the world. Schaeffer
goes in search of Fred Teufel, a young
man of that city, and his mission is to
find him, dead or alivo. The young
man is legateo of a large estate aud un
til he returns or the fact of his death is
established, the proporty cannot be
divided.
Schaeffer will first go to Manila, where
tho young man left tho Uuited States
army after sorvlng throo years. If
Teufel is not loc&tel there Schaoffor will
then proceed to Egypt, as the missing
belr had often expressed his intention of
visiting that country. Teufel has not
beon heard from In two years, but the
family believe that he still alivo.
Mrs. Edward Turnbach, wife of the
leador of Hazleton Citizens' Alliance,
died yesterday afternoon after a two
weeks' illness. Mr. Turnbach, who is
suffering from typhoid fever, is in a
| serious condition and has not yet been
I apprised of the death of his wife.
' NARROW -ESCAPE.
Daniel Ferry, While Seeking: COM! at
Sandy 2tun, Is Serleusly Injured.
f Daniel Ferry, of North Centre street,
i met with an accident at Sandy Run
L stripping at 5 o'clock yesterday after
> noon and was seriously injured Intcr
i nally and about the legs. His escape
from death is considered miraculous by
■ those who. viewed the scene of the
r accident.
Tho stripping is daily occupied by a
large number of men who are digging
I coal for thoir own use or for Freeland
people. Mr. Ferry went there yester
• day afternoon and found tho place so
full of workers that he was about to
return home, when ho was informed
• that a large quantity of coal could bo
had by entering an old breast which had
I been driven to the stripping from a mine
below.
f For tho purpose of investigating he
entered this breast, passed under a trap-
door which had beon placed to regulato
i fc thc air of tho mine below, and walked a
few foet lu the darkness. Theu ho
t struck a match to view his surround-
I lugs. When the light had burned out
he began to retraco his stops in the
diroctlon of the exit, but mistook the
route.
\ Ho proceeded only a short distanco
, when he walked Into a hole about eigh
i teen feet deep. Ho struck the ground
I feet foremost and accidentally grasped
' a piece of brattice, to which ho clung.
Though Injured, ho retained his pres
ence of mind and found that he wa*s on
, a narrow lodge of coal and that beneath
him was auothor deep hole. Alone in
the darkness and clinging to his frail
support, with pains racking his body
and legs, his posltlou was ouo to try tho
strongest nerve.
Two of his neighbors, James and
Patrick Boyle, saw him enter tho
abandoned breast, and after half an
hour's absence they became anxious and
wont in search of him. They procured
lights and cautiously groped their way
to tho edge of the precipice. Calling
his name, they received an answer and
learned of the accident.
More help was summoned and various
methods were suggesied to take Ferry
from his perilous position. A twenty
flve foot rope was first lowored, but this
was found useless, as tho injured man
could not retain a hold on it long
enough to be drawn up aud would also
be further hurt by being swayed against
the ragged sides of the hole.
Other ways of rescuing him were tried
and found futile, and finally a step
ladder was attached to tho rope aud
lowored to Ferry. His arms, being un
injured, were strong, and these he
placed around the rope and left his body
and legs rest upon the step-ladder. In
this manner he was slowly raised to the
top of the hole and takon to tho surface.
An investigation of tho placo showed
that had he not struck the narrow ledge
of coal upon which he landed when he
fell, or had ho not grasped tho brattice,
ho would have fallen fully fifty feet
further before reaching the bottom of
the hole and would probably have been
dashed to death.
The injured man was removed to his
homo in Kemmerer & Co.'s ambulance.
Tho attending physicians found that no
bones were broken, but that tho shock
received by the fall had injured him
internally and had numbed his legs and
lower portion of tho back and body.
He is suffering severe pain today, but
DO moro serious results are liable to fol
low.
Mr. Ferry and his family removod
from Upper Lohigh to Freeland a short
time ago. He has many friends through
out tho region who rejoice that his ad
venture did not end fatally.
BREVITIES.
Emll Hazlr, the alleged murderer of
John Shigo, of Stockton, was arrested
In the lattor place yesterday. Shigo

cers remained about the place expecting

was gone a few minutes Hazir came
from whore he was hiding and ran to
the house of the doad man, where he
had been a boarder, to got his clothing.

TRI-WEEKLY
TRIFLING WITHYOUR HEALTH
Is Like Playing With a Load
ed Guu—lf You Have Kid
ney Trouble Attend
to It at Once.
It is easy to tell whether your kidneys
or bladder are diseased. Take a bottle
or glass tumbler and fill it with urine.
If there is a sediment —a powder-like
substance—after standing a day and
night, if it is palo or discolored, ropy or
stringy, there is something wrong with
the kidneys. Other sure signs of disease
are a desire to urinate often, pain in the
back, or if your urine stains linen.
There is no question that Dr. David
Kennedy's Favorite Remedy is the best
and surest medicine in the world for dis
ease of the Kidneys, Liver, Bladder and
lilood, Rheumatism, Dyspepsia, Chronic
Constipation, and the sicknesses peculiar
to women. It quickly relieves and cures
inability to hold urine and the necessity
of getting up a number of times during
the night, and puts an end to the scald
ing pain when passing urine.
The Rev Henry P. Miller, paster Bap
tist Church, Spartenburg, S. C., writes:
"For eleven years I suffered with
kidney, liver and heart troubles,
swimming in the head, dull head
ache and numbness of the limbs.
Several physicians prescribed for
me and I then began the use of Dr.
David Kenuedy's Favorite Remedy,
and in about two weeks was entirely
well."
