FREELAND, PA., WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1902. CANDIDATES ARE NAMED Democrats Place a County Ticket in the Field. Martin for Congress, Moore for Treasurer, Holman for Register, Schappert and Finn for Commissioners. The Democratic county convention at Wllkesbarro yesterday nominated the following ticket: Congress—Thomas R. Martin, Esq., Wllkesbarre. Treasurer—John J. Moore, Plymouth. Register—James W. Holman, Hazle ton. Commissioners—Patrick J. Finn, Miners Mills; Jacob Schappert, Wllkes barre. The first legislative district was given two nominees, Martin and Schappert; tho Third, one, Moore; the Fourth, one, Holman, and tho Fifth, one, Finn. Tho convention was one of tho most exciting held by the Democrats In many years. Tho factional fight between the two leaders, John M. G&rman and John T. Lenahan, broke out afrosh and every point was hotly contested until the work of the convention was concluded. Tho slate arranged by tho Lenahanites was successful. The candidates for congress were Thotras R. Martin, Esq., Wllkesbarre, and ex-Congressman Stanley Davenport, Plymouth. Tho vote was: Martin, 153; Davenport, 142. For treasurer John J. Moore, Ply mouth, received the nomination without opposition. Jaines W. Holman, Ilazleton, and James P. Brown, Plymouth, wore the names presented for register of wills. The vote was: Holman, 159; Brown, 138. The contest for commissioners had narrowed down to three In the conven tion, the applicants for the nomination being Commissioner Patrick J. Finn, Minors Mills; Jacob Schappert, Wllkes barre, and Michael Maycock, Wllkes barre. The vote was: Finn, 174; Schappert, 109; Maycock, 138. The Fourth district was represented on tho various committees by tho fol lowing: Contested seats, John J. Mc- Neils; resolutions, Joseph Boyle; organi zation, John O'Hara. The contest from the Fifth ward of Freeland borough was decided In favor of Daniel Slattery. The resolutions adopted wore In ex cellent spirit, denouncing corruption and j< bbery in local as well as state and national affairs; favored measures for the amelioration of labor and such legis lation as would bring capital and labor In closer and more friendly relations, because both are essential to the pros perity of the country. The amendments to the rulos, draft ed by a special committee appointed for that purpose last April, were read and unanimously adopted. The amend ments are of minor importance; chief of which is one requring the registration of all candidates for nomination five days before tho county convention, such candidates being required to pay as a registration feo 1 per cent of the salary of the office to which he aspires. When the time came for tho Fourth district delegates and politicians to leave to catch the last regular train tho convention had only begun its work. Mr. Lenahan notified tho lower coders that a special train for their accommo dation would leave for Ilazleton after the convention had adjourned and this prevented a stampede. The special train left Wllkesbarre at 9 o'clock and passed through town at lip m. The majority of the Freeland people at tho convention returned home on this train. Strike Meetings Held.

B. Mar kle & Co. When the meeting was over President Baer made tho following statement: "Tho coal strike was informally discuss ed. Reports from tho collieries show that tho strike is generally disintegrat ing. More men are returning to work dally. There can be no chango what ever In the attitude of tho operators." John Markle left tho meeting and went to J. F. Morgan's office, where ho met F. A. B. Wldenor. The meeting in President Baer's office concluded at a few minutes before 3 o'clock. Follow ing the meeting with J. F. Morgan, John Marklo made this statement: "I do not think It necessary to repeat that all talk of concessions on the part of the operators is f lolisl;, and certainly with out foundation. Our position now Is tho samo as when Mitchell made his original propositions, and no different than when tho strike began. We have defined our position and will maintain It." President Gompers, of tho American Federation of Labor, reached Wllkes barro yesterday and shortly thereafter the conference In which he was to par ticipate with President Mitchell, Secre tary-Treasurer W. B. Wilson and Dis trict Presidents Nichols, Duffy and Fahy began, and continued until dinner.

Editor Tribune. —In your issues of the 3d and Bth Inst, there appeared communications concerning the action of Mr. Anton Ambrozl, president of tho National Slavonic Society of America, in protesting to the secretary of the treasury, against admitting free of duty the national flag of Austro-Hungary, which was bought by the officials of said government. The last letter of the reverend gentlemen, Messrs. Pajdusak and Housor in conjunction with Mr. Krcmery, I have no wish to criticize, as it expressed tho views of nearly all tho Slavonians in this country, but I do take exceptions to the first letter penned by one who signs himself Joseph Uhlar and who takes the responsibility of being the first defender of the action of tho Austro-Hungary diplomats who are trying to estrange tho Slovak citi zens of the United States from that erab em of liberty, the stars and stripes. In reading Mr. Uhlar's letter 1 was led to infer that he is no American citi, zen, although he enjoys blessings under the stars and stripes such as he nevor enjoyed under tho flag of Austro-llun gary, and as lie says there is nothing for a Magyar to protest against tho admitt ance of the llag without duty. To the European it is a well known fact, often demonstrated, that the Mag yar is the wiliost of all diplomats, and the present move in presenting tho cost ly flag to the Hungarian race In this country at tho present time is a move where they will extract money from tho Slavonians by the wiley Magyars who are at tho head of tho National Loaguo of Hungary, an organization that every adopted or naturalized Hungarian knows that its preamble to be foreign to Ameri can institutions. Mr. Uhlar also states, and he is authority (?) that Mr. Ambrozi has for feited tho honor of his native country, and I would like to ask If every foreigner who lived In a country governed by a king or queen didn't lose the respect of the said kings and queens whon he took the oath of ailegienco to the United States? He also states that "Mr. Ambrozi doesn't respect any flag" and to that I take exceptions and only ask any Ameri can citizon if he considers Mr. Ambrozi a good citizen or not, and tho answer will be yes, unless ho wan to ask a Mag yar of Mr. Uhlar's mold. Mr. Uhlar not only forfeits the opin ion of the Slavonians and tho majority of the Magyars, but the respect as well. Mr. Ambrozi proves by his action in protesting against tho flag, and in plac ing in tho hands of tho officials of the United States a secret document men tioned in today's Tribune written by the same Magyars, that ho is not only a citizen to be proud of but a patriot as well. In closing I would like to suggest to Mr. Uhlar to read history and not re peat the fireside yarn about Svatupluk trading Slovak territory for a nice white horse with a rod bridle, as he did in his letter of the 3d inst. Thanking you kindly in advance for the valuable space that this will take in your paper, I am, respectfully, George Iludack. New Trial Is Awarded. Judge Archbald, of Lackawanna county, has made absoluto the rule asked by tho defense in tho famous case of F. M. Thornton, of Wllkesbarre, vs. a fire insurance company, and awarded a new trial. Tho opinion was brief and emphasized particularly the duties of the insured regarding the saving of pro perty during the fire. Follcies invari ably stipulate that reasonablo effort must bo made to save undamaged prop erty, and in tho ruling of Judgo Arch baid, whore it is shown that the proper ty owner made littlo or no effort to separate damaged goods from undamag ed, tho owner is guilty of a breach of contract. The hearing in the case will occur in the federal court on the third Monday In October. Damages to tlie amount of $4,500 were awarded by the jury at the last session of court. Thornton, through his attornoys, sued for SO,OOO for the destruction of his library and furniture. The opinion of the judge iu awarding a new trial is in part as follows: It was provided by tho policy in suit that "If fire occurs tho insured shall protect tho property from further dam age and forthwith separato tho dam aged from the undamaged personal property and put it in the best possible order." There was evidence from which the jury might havo found 'that this was not observed by tho plaintiff in the present instance, and the court was, therefore, requested to chargo in the defendant's third point that if he had failed in his duty lie was not entitled to recover. The court affirmed the duty but deuiod the result claimed. LOCAL NOTES WRITTEN OP Short Items of Interest to All Readers.
