way to Philadelphia, having in their
charge seven convicts sentenced by the
York county court to imprisonment in the

THE sCHUYLKILL COAL OPERATORS.
Result of the conference Yesterday.

At conference of the Schuylkill coal
operators it was decided to ask the Phila-
delphia and Reading company to suspend
operations temporarily. To the represen-
tatives of the conference, however, the
Philadelphia and Reading officials stated
that the company is now only running
twenty-one out of its fifty-two mines, and
those are being run only to keep the fur
naces going. The assurance was given
that if the requirements of the trade
should demand total suspension at the
last of the present month the company
will then agree to shut down altogether
The subject of arranging prices to CON-
pete with the low-priced Goals from the
Lehigh region was talked of but no action
was taken.

Mrs. McCleary, a handsome young
widow, residing near Round Head, Har-
din county, Ohio, was found lying in the
woods on Monday. She had been missing
for several days, and when found was
nearly dead from hunger and exposure.
She was taken to the house of her brother
in-law. a man named Nagle, where she
partially revived. She refused to give any
account of her actions. The family were
Mortified the next morning to find dead
infant in the backyard, which she had
given birth to and carried there during the
night. At the inquest it was proved that
the child was born alive and died from ey-
posure. The woman is of excellent family
and will probably die.

the ju,y shall have the right to determine
the law and the facts under the direction of
the court, as in other cases.
The law of June 16, 1868, which Judge
Patterson is presumed to know and
ought reasonably he expected to admins
ter says: ''No publication ont Of court
respecting the conduct of the judges, Off
GERS of the court, jurors, witnesses, par
ties or any of them, in or concerning any
cause depending in such court, shall be
construed into contempt of the said
court so as to render the author, printer,
publisher, or either of them, liable to at
tachment and summary punishment OF
them And the law giving courts
power to punish for contempt expressly
limits them to judgment upon the official
conduct of officers of the court and to
misbehavior in its presence.
The illustrious Chief Justice Gibson
has said that - the conduct of judge,
like that of any functionary, is a legiti-
mate subject of scrutiny and, where
the public good is the aim, such scrutiny
is as open to al attorney of his court as
any other citizen -; and ian attorney
is not professionally answerable for a
scrutiny into the official conduct of the
judge which would not expose him to
legal aniInadverSion.'
| The supreme court of Kansas has said
"No judge and no court, high or low, is
beyOnd the reach of public and individ.
ual criticism. After q case Is disposed q
a court or judge has no power to compel
the public or any individual thereof, at.
torney or otherwise, to consider his rul
ings correct, his integrity free from stain
or To punish .tor contempt on any mert
criticism OF dnimadrerstOn thefeon, no
matter hOU sercrc or u,just.''
Judge Patterson must be presumed to
know the law, because he is a judge,
and, if this presumption is not too vio'
lent. he knew that he could not reach
Messrs. Steinman and Hensel for theil
unofficial conduct beyond the courts
presence. Hence his disingenuOus at.
tempt to make them commit the alleged
contempt in his presence, summoned there
as lawyers. If he could make them say
in open court that as lawyers they
adopted these sentiments, =" expressed
outside of court as editors, they would
be caught in the trap. The bait, how.
ever, was not inviting. The concerl
was awkwardly set.

Thunder and Lightning.

Last evening between 7 and 8 o'clock
Lancaster was visited by a heavy storm of
thunder, lightning and rain-a most un-

latitude. The storm appeared to come

was very severe at Mount Joy, Elizabeth
town and as far west as Harrisburg.

A Costly Establishment Burned

A Coatly Establishment Burned.
NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-THE Epcni7,g Post
says: Jay Gould's conservatory at 1slington,
on the Hudson. was burned this morning.
Loss said to be 100000.
The greenhouse was the largest in the
country, and was filled with the rarest and
most valuable plants. Many we're imported
at great expense. and some were not dupli-
Gated in the United States, The
collection Of tropical plants alone could
not be eQualed in this latitude. There
were other plants that were brought here
from all parts OF the world, and the cost Of
importation alone was sufficient to maintain
an ayeragesized greenhouse for years
The men were working up to 2
this morning; under the direction OF
the head gardener. At 3 the night watch
man discovered the flames. lie awakened
the entire force Of men, and they con-
nected the fire apparatus, but the water was
frozen, and their efforts were useless. The
flames, famed by high wind, swept
through the mammoth structure, licking
up everything. In half an hour from
the time the fire WIS first discovered
the beautiful structure was mass OF
ruins The building was $50 feet long, and
constructed in the Moorish style. The en-
tire loss is S150,000, upon which there is no
insurance. The Conservatory was only a
little distance from the residence, which Is
unharmed- Gould only purchased the prop
crty little over year ago, and paid about
$3.50, 900 for it. It is understood more ele
CANT building will speedily replace the one
just burned.
