NEW BRIDGE, n. j., July ia. H.
Leggett, Postmaster here, came within an
ace of being killed by cannon ball in his
store Saturday morning. Mrs. E. L. Cleve-
land, the postmaster's daughter, had just
risen from chair that was shattered to
pieces. R. ]. Victor, of Fairmount,is chief
clerk for j. II. Smelling, the wholesale
shipchandler, of 15S South street. Mr..
Smelling has been making speciality of
lifeline mortars for ships use. Mr.. Victor
obtained the consent of the Bergen Gun Club

mortars were sent to New Bridge yesterday

accompanied by two inspectors, went to the
gun club grounds to test the life-saving ap-

ball went thro Ugh the store door, cut path
through the floor, and, glancing up, struck
the chair that Mrs. Cleveland had just left.

MYSTERY OF AN ORGAN
1t Was Much Harder to Find Than the
Lost Tribes of Israel.
TRACERS SENT OUT FOR A YEAR.
NilkeSbarre Companies Preparing for
Threatened Strike.
TOO MANY FOREIGNERS ARE ARRIVING

DU BoIs, July 19.-For over a year the
railroads of this section have been searching
for lost organ, and the mystery has at last
been explained by Allison Roscoe, of this
place. Roscoe plays the fiddle at country
dances. and has to assist him in making a
noise small portable organ. Over a year
ago he shipped this celebrated organ from
Brockport by freight to this place. The
towns are but 10 miles apart, but in trans
portation the organ had to be handled by
the Erie, the Redgeway and Clearfeld and
the Allegheny Valley Railroads, and in the
shuttle the organ did not get through in
time. a few days later Roscoe was at Falls
Creek and saw his organ in a car on the
siding. Supposing his friends had loaded it
for him, he took the organ, and has been
using it ever since.
When the organ did not turn up at the
proper time, the Du Bois agent started
tracers and has been tracing ever since.
The agents of the three roads mentioned
also started tracerS, and it has been looked
for from one end TO the other of the lines.
Yesterday Agent Zell, of this office, received
package of letters, tracers, orders and mis-
cellaneouS manuscript relating to the lost
organ that weighed eight pounds, and con-
tanned enough ideas and suggestions regard
garding that organ which, if properly ap-
piled, would have located the lost tribes of
Israel long ago. While he was examining
the bundle the orgaa hove in sight, accom-
panied by the owner, whJ was amazed to
learn the organ he had been PLAYING on for
d wear was lost freight There will proba-
bly, be another cart load of manuscript ham

OLD OCEAN SHOCKED.
How an Earthquake Disturbed Mariners
OFF the Java Coast.

On the Java Coast
NEW YORK, July 19.-The big Calcutta
ship GlenfinIas arrived yesterday after q
voyage of 1913 days. Captain Davies, her
skipper, reported that on April II, when
about 600 miles off the coast of Java he ex-
perienced a terrific earthquake shock.
Captain Davies says he has been sailing in
the Calcutta trade for a quarter of century
and never before had such an experience.
''The weather was perfectly calm," said
the Captain. There was not breath of
air. The sea was as smooth as q mill pond.
The atmosphere was muggy and sultry. 1
was sitting at the table eating supper. Sud-
denly there was an almost imperceptible
tremor. Then the ship trembled like an
aspen leaf I heard rumbling, grating
sound as though the vessel had struck
a coral reef. 1 rushed on deck. Dismay
and terror were pictured in the faces of my
men. They thought the ship was going to
pieces.
From stem to stern she trembled for
fully three minutes. There was peculiar
ground swell that made us think we had
touched bottom. The casting of the lead
soon allayed our fears 1 told our men
what the phenomenon was. My assurances
allayed their fears. None of them had ever
felt an earthquake shock before.
''While the tremor lasted they were mo-
mentarily expecting the sea TO open and
swallow them. Two more shocks were felt
the next dav. They were not so severe as
the first one. After the last shock the
weather conditions changed. A good breeze
sprang up and the hazy sultry condition of
the atmosphere disappeared. The seismic
wave appeared to be travelling from west
to east The ship did not sustain any
damage"

Story of Peter Deane, Who Hid in Canada
He Afuerward Was Paid Two Thousand
Dollars For Bis Part of the Trans
action.
NEW YORK, July 19-The morning Id
,wtiser prints a rather fshy story about the
man who is supposed to have driven the
white horse which took DR.. Cronin to his
death. The story in part is as follows:
Immediately after the conviction of the
prisoners an Irishman who called himself
Peter Deane, and who lived in Lake View,
not far from the Carlson Cottage, quietly
left Chicago and went to Canada. Deane
was dog fancier and dealer in birds. He
was quiet, reserved man and apparently
took no greater interest in the Cronin mys-
terv than did his neighbors. He attended
to his business every day, and when, in De-
cember, 1889, he shut up his shop and dis
appeared, no particular curiosity was
aroused.
at was not known to the people in Lake
View, however, that Deane had been in
daily communication with a prominent
member of the Clan-na-Gael ever since the
trial began; nor was it known that this
same prominent member paid Deane's ex-
penses to Canada and that there Deane
10lneQ lne SUdrk1eS, VINO were suspected OF
guilty knowledge of DR.. Cronin's death.
The dog fancier remained in retirement for
nearly year and then went back to
Chicago. From Chicago he was ordered to
go to New York. Upon his arrival there he
went to an obscure hole in the Southside
and remained until he was notified to meet
the man who was directing his movements.
"When this meeting took place the sum
of 81, 900 was paid to Peter Deane with the
understanding that he will never relate the
fact that he had driven the horse from the
Carlson cottage to the catch basin, and
that he knew what the trunk which he put
in the wagon contained when he helped lift
it in and when he helped lift it out. Deane
promised, and then he signed a receipt for
the money. The next. day he left New
York to go to Canada. He never went. He
did not return to Chicago. The mans per-
sonality was so marked that he could not be
swallowed up even in city like New York.
The receipt that he signed has been shown
to gentleman in New York. The holder
of it expresses the belief that he will never
be called upon to pay another dollar.
Whether Peter Deane is dead or alive only
this one man knows, and this one man is
safer with Deane dead than Deane alive"

WOUNDED BUT NOT PENsIoNED.
The Record of a Soldier Who Fought After
His Time Was Out

New CASTLE, July 19-John Able, whose
remains were inferred to-day, was member
OF Colonel NJ. S. Quay's One Hundred and
Twenty-fourth Regiment, which was after
ward commanded by Colonel Ed S. O'Brien,
deceased, OF New Castle. Mr.. Able was
member OF Company A AT the battle of
Fredericksburg his regiment was retreating
before the ire of the rebel guns, when Col
onel OBrien made the discovery that the
Teglmental cOlors were missing. This was
considered a terrible blow to the gallant One
Hundred and Twenty-fouIth, and the Colonel
a>kedfOr avolunteer to go back to the rebel
lines and secure the colors. John Able
stepped forward and started amid shower
OF bullets. He reached the position the regi-
ment had occupied, but could not find the
CulOrS
Twelve days before the great battle of
Charlottesville the time of enlistment of a
number OF the members of the One Hundred
and Twenty-fourth expired, among them be-
ing Mr.. Able. just before the battle, while
The boys were preparing to leave for home,
Colonel O'Brien asked them to volunteer to
20 into the fight. Mr.. Able did so and was
wounded in this battle, and, as he was not
on the roll at the time, he never received
pension. The deceased was killed by falling
from a load Of hay Friday.

NEW WILMINGTON SNAKES.
One of Them Measured Ten Feet When
Killed by Farmer.

New CASTLE, July 19-New Wilmington
comes forward with the first snake story of
the season in this section. William Scott
was in his hay field yesterday afternoon and
was carrying a scythe, when he encountered
a huge blacksnake, which on seeing him
started for small strip of woods at the
edge of the field. Mr.. Scott gave chase and
after a short time succeeded in wounding
the reptile. This caused the snake to turn
and show fight, and for little time it looked
as if Mr.. Scott would get the worst of it.
The snake by quick movement succeeded
in wrapping himself around the mans body.
In the excitement Mr.. Scott swung the
scythe around, cutting off a portion of the
hold and it fell to the ground, and when the
ecythe was again swung around it cut off its
head. Mr.. Scott took the snake to New Will
mington and found it measured nine feet.
He thinks he must have cut off at least six
inches from each end, and this would make
the reptile at least 10 feet in length.

PREPARING TO RESUME WORK.

The Columbia Iron and Steel Company fuo-
ting Itself Together Again.
The Columbia Iron and Steel Company Is
making active preparations for paying the
claims of its late employees some time toward
the end of this week, probably on Satur-
day. 1t was the intention of the manage
ment to pay off all claims last Saturday, but
this was found to be impossible. owing to
some slight difficulty in getting the claims
put in proper order.
The disagreement regarding the signing
of the scale still continues. Both parties
declare they will not back down, but 1t is
thought the matter will be satisfactorily
arranged in few days. It is probable the
mill may resume operations about the end
of this month, provided the difficulty as to
the scale can be definitely settled.

scranton Democratic Paper Condemns
the H. of L. Leaders Ambition.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.1
SCRANTON, PA, July 19.-The Sunday
Free Press, the most influential Democratic
journal in the region, gave General Master
Workman Powderly severe lampooninp
to-day, criticising his announcement that
he will stand as a candidate for delegate to
the Constitutional Convention, but does not
know of which party he will seek the honor.
The Free Press thinks that no party will be
anxious to weigh itself down with such
candidate under the circumstances, and
hints that his present attitude is not con-
sistent with his published reasons for re-
fusing to accept a position on the Worlds
Fair Commission. Continuing, the Free
Press declares that Mr.. Powderly's asserted
fear of compromising himself by accepting
fsvors of politicians is inconsistent with
the appointment of Mr.. Powderly's brother
as postmaster of Carbondale, by President
Cleveland, and the appointment of the same
brother on the Immigration Committee,
both of which resulted from the influence
of the General Master Workman.

said among the men tonight that the large
companies have combined and are bringing
into this section large numbers ofworkmen
direct from Europe.
1t is a fact that squads of foreigners are
arriving daily in suspiciously large numbers
and are applying for work wherever work
may be had. The employees of the companies
have no other grievance of any consequence
except that the companies refuse to pay the
wages every two weeks as the new law calls
for The men claim the monthly pay is too
hard on them when they must meet heavy
daily expenses, and that in consequence
they are forced to patronize company stores
or other places they would not If they had

BIG FOUNDRY TO MOVE.

Z. Sharp stated to-day that in all probability
he would move his foundry to Youngstown

with c. H. Andrews, the millionaire iron
man of that place, and made a proposition
&c him regarding the removal of the Ohio

Standard Oil Company. 1t is the intention
Of that company, in pursuance of their plans

erect three tanks above the city, each hold

The people are exercised over the matter,
a. il is feared an oil fire some day might
sweep down tEe rivers, and overcome the
city, should the tanks ever be struck by
lightning a. is a common occurrence in the
oil country. The people so greatly fear any
thing in the way of flood or fire that it is
altogether likely that an effort will be made
to have the Standard build their plant
below, instead of above the city.
