The Bellaire Nail Works to start up the
First of the Year.
The Bellaire people, and, in fact, every.

pleasure that the Bellaire Nail Works,
which have been closed down now for 80
long will without doubt, resume some
time early in January, very likely the
first week. This will be especial good
news for the large number Of men and
boys employed in the works, and it will
be sincerely hoped that if the year Of 1887
starts of in such an encouraging manner,
the balance will follow in its footsteps.
This news was obtained from a reliable
source and there is not, therefore, much
doubt of it being verified when the time
comes.

THE COAL POOL SUIT.
A HEARING HELD BY ATTORNEY GENERAL
CASSIDY YESTERDAY
For the Purpose Of Obtaining Testimony in the Bqu-
ty Suit Against the COnSummahOn Ofthe Anthra-
cite Coal POOl-SOms Big Railroad
srs Called Upon.

PHILADELPHIA, Decembea 16.-A hear.
ing was held by Attorny General Cassidy,
before Notary Public here to-day for the
purpose of obtaining testimony in the
equity suit begun in Common Pleas Court
of Dauphin county, Pa, against the con-
summation of the anthracite coal pool,
Among the corporations represented by
counsel were the Pennsylvania Company,
the Reading R. R. Company and its Re
ceivers, the Tehigh Coal & Navigation Co.,
Lehigh Valley K. r. and the Lehigh Val
ley Coal Co.
THE FIRST WITNESS
called was Joseph S. Harris, President oi
the Lehigh Coal & Navigation Co., Re,
ceiver of the Central Railroad of New
Jersey, and supposed to be the Secretary
of the Coal Combination. Mr.. Harris de.
clined, under advice of counsel to answer
any questions whatever concerning the
subject at issue. Counsel for the Com
pany said: Il desire to go on record, call
ing the attention of the Attorney General
to the fact that there was filed in the
Dauphin County Court a motion to va
cate the rule under which this examination
is proceeding, and Tuesday next has been
set for hearing. We reserve all rights
and object to proceeding under this rule, on
the ground that it is not properly taken,
and that the Attorney General is not au'
thorized to take depositions. A recess
was then taken, during which Mr.. Cas-
sidy
SENT OUT sUBPGNAs
for President George B. Roberts, Vice
President Frank Thomson and General
Freight Agent John s. Wilson, of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company. The
only one who appeared in answer to the
subppnas was President Roberts, and he
was called upon to take the stand. A day
was asked by his counsel, the inference
given that they were not ready to
advise Mr.. Harris as to what
course he should pursue on the
witness stand-that is to say whether OF
not he should refuse to TESTIFY as Mr..
Harris did, or should take the opposite
course. 1t was finally agreed that the
hearing of the Pennsylvania Railroad Off
cials should be postponed until Saturday
next. The following were then called as
wstneSses: ]. II. Jones, Austin Corhin,
Geo. De B. Keim, Stephen A. Cald.
well, ]. Z. Bell, Samuel S. Har'
ris, A. J. Specs, f. p. Wilbur,
J LOwber Welsh and A. J. DreXel. They
all, under advice of Counsel, declined to
answer any questions. Attorney General
Cassidy then gave notice to the defence tC
produce all their witnesses together with
all papers mentioned in the subpGnas al
Harrisburg, in the Court Of Common Pleas
Tuesday next.

would then be removed from the mere
strife and spoil, and contention of politics,
at this point Mr.. Edmunds was attacked
with a hit of coughing which forced him TO
rasume his seat
Mr.. George made constitutional and
historical argument IN favor ofthe bill.
Mr.. Evarts addressed the Senate stating
that he would vote for the bill and that
grounds OF constitutionality would not
cover his vote, but that grounds ofexpe-
diency would If removals from office, he
said, were TO term on two concurrent
judgements, where the President and SEN
ate might be opposed in politics, it would
follow that the repugnance OF the Senate
might keep a man in Office whom the Pres
ident desired 10 dispense with and by
whose action the President could not ac-
compliSh his duty. At the close of Mr..
Evart's speech, the Senate went into Ex-
ecutive session and when the doors were
re-opened. Adjourned.
