HARRISBURG.

CLARKsBURG, w. Va, January 23.-The
suit for $4,000 damages Of Shrenls against
John and Benjamin Coffman has occupied
the attention of the court the whole week,
and was submitted to the jury late last
night, after long and elaborate instructions
by the court. The plaintiff was represent
ed by Clifford and Dovener, and the de-
PENDANT by Harrison, Basel and Hutchin-
son. A strong defense was made, and 1t
would be difficult to predict the verdict.
The jurv will mora than likely hang, and
while there may be verdict against Ben
iamin COffman, the general opinion is that
the verdict will be in favor Of John Coff-
man.

unless they are TO be considered by the

acted on promptly.

Thomos Jefferson and John. Adams
were he opposing candidates in 1906

William Henry Harrison in 1886 and
l840. In both these cases the man
beaten the first time was successful the
second. Andrew jackson and John
Quincy Adams were indeed candidates
for President both in 1924 and 1898.
but in the former contest there were j
many candidates and it was SO much
of a scrub race that no two could prom
erly be called, competitors. And ther
there was no choice by the people.

According to the calculations Of Mr..
Joseph s. Harris, as printed in an in
1eresting article in the current number
OF The Forum. the Reading leases are
timed so as to run 800 years after the
anthracite coal supply in pennsylvania
shall have been exhausted. There is
only an unmined supply for the next
hundred years. It might be urg-
ed by the ingenious critics who have
found SO much fault with '.the Coal
Combine that the Reading Company
has madea rash bargain in agreeing to
pay dividends for nine centuries on coal
roads that will have no coal to carry.
The books Of the Samual j. Tilden
estate have shown an increase of ST.
loo, 200 in net profits on income for five
years.or about 5000, 900 increase per
year. This was the showing Iat the
end of last December, and was exclu-
sive Of all the expenses of litigation
and administration. This capable and
faithful management in adding. largely
to the original estate has likewise
proved public benefit, since it has
insured the erection of public library
which will be credit to the city of
New York and fitting memorial of
the statesman whose honored name it
will perpetuate. Such record of
trust management is rare enough to
merit commentator.

Out in California, where summer

of elemental disturbance in the form

early yesterday morning aroused the
slumbering population Of San Francis

number Of towns of the adjacent re-
gion. The 'tremblores" have all
reasons for their own, and human
skill and knowledge are powerless
against them. What effort can avail
where the very foothold is uncertain9
