An application was made some time
ago to the attorney general by J. NJ.
Lilly and others, of Berwick, for a writ
of quo warranto, against the Jackson &
Woodin Manufacturing Company, of
Berwick, for a forfeiture of its charter
rights under the act of June 8, 1891, on
the ground that it was carrying on
company store under the name of the
Berwick Store Company. An extended
hearing was had in the matter, and from
time to time supplemental briefs, argu-
ments and testimony have been filed
with the attorney general.
After full consideration the attorney
general decided on Friday to not ask for
the writ, being satisfied that there is no
longer any identity between the man
agement and ownership of the two cor
porations, and that the property occu-
pied by the store company has been con-
veyed to it in good faith, and that the
manufacturing company has no interest
whatever in it.

Mrs. Mary Walsh, an aged lady of
Pittston, was found dead on Friday at
her home by neighbors. She had not
been seen for several days by her neigh
bors and an investigation followed. The
search was short, she being found lying
on the floor of the sitting room, fell from
a chair and probably had been dead for
fifty hours. 1t is generally thought she
died from heart failure.

Testing an inclination to permit Congress
man Hines to secure his denomination
without opposition, so that in the line of
retributive political justice, the voters
may have the opportunity to retire him
to private life at the coming election.
Among the best informed local leaders
OF the Democratic party, it seems to be
conceded, that if an effort should be
made to nominate any other congress
sional candidate than Mr.. Hines, the
result would be to intensity factional
strife that would probably disrupt the
convention, and cause the whole ticket
to be defeated next fall
This one of the horns of a serious di-
lemma which at present confronts Lu-
