Coal Sales Agents Meeting.

The anthracite coal sales agents met
on Friday in the office of Coke Bros. &
Co., in New York, to take final action
in the decision reached last week to
advance the price of anthracite coal. 1t
was learned that they adjourned their
meeting without changing the output
for June as already agreed upon. The
meeting was harmonious, and the charges,
which it was reported would be made
against certain companies, were not
presented. The charges which were to
have been made against two of the larg-
est carriers were for mining more than
their quota of the allotment Of tonnage
for this month, as well as for selling
large quantities of coal for delivery
during the next two or three months
at May prices or less.
The output for the past two weeks
will exceed 100000 tons, and this
excessive quantity has led to some bad
feeling on the part of several of the
companies who have been restricting
production, while their competitors have
been mining and marketing all the coal
possible without much regard to quota
or price.
1t was believed that unless better
understanding is had between the inter-
ested parties, and those companies who
charged with both overproduction and
cutting prices will promise to change
their methods of doing business and live
up to the agreement on tonnage and
prices, there is likely to be further
trouble at an early day.

The BOdies Found.

After forty-three days hard fight
ing with fire and deadly gases the
party of miners who have been search
ing in the Colorado mine, near Shenan-
doah, for the bodies of August Lope and
Sober Pranzey succeeded in recovering
them on Friday night.
The two men We're the only persons in
the mine when the fire started. In fact,
it is believed it was one of them who
ignited the gas. The bodies were found
at the extreme west end of the gangway,
and battery at that point showed the
last desperate efforts the unfortunates
made to save their lives. They died
from the gases arising from the burning
coal.
Since the bodies have been recovered
attention will now be given to restoring
the mine to a condition for operations
The fire has cost the company upwards
of 100000. The mine is still very
valuable one.

What the Judge Said.

From the Wilkes Barre Record.
The suit brought by Robert Mitchell
against the supervisors of Plains town
ship, to prevent them from incurring
what he considers unnecessary expense
in the grading of road, brings to mind
the strong language used by Judge
Woodward the other day regarding the
manner in which supervisors conduct
the affairs of their office. In his deci-
sion in the case of the Union Street Rail-
way Company against the Hazleton and
North Side Company, granting it the ex-
elusive right to occupy certain roads in
Foster township, he says:
evidence shows that the signatures
of the supervisors to Ito the Hazleton
company's permit were obtained in a
manner and under circumstances which
render the transactions irregular, if not
disreputable. Without pro-
longing the discussion of this branch of
the case, we improve the occasion to say
that the slip-shod, reckless and unbusi-
ness-like methods, which have obtained
in some of the townships of the county,
in the administration of the public bust
ness and in the management of the pub
lie moneys, have become a stencil and a
disgrace,
1--WE deem it our judicial duty to in
sist that this tendency, so apparent to
every observer, shall be reproved and
rooted out rather than excused and en-
couraged. 1t seems to us that the con-
sent of the supervisors obtained by Mr..
Long on January 5, in the manner and
under the circumstance disclosed in this
case, is not entitled to judicial approval"

MCDONALD is ANGRY.
The Late Appointee to the Kingston Post
Office Wants an Explanation.

|
Office Wants an Explanation.
From the Philadelphia Press.
Washington, D. c., June l3.-When
President Cleveland listened to the
seductive arguments of Congressman
BILLY" Hines and withdrew the nomi-
nation of j. j. Mcdonald as postmaster
at Kingston, in Hines district, he did
not know what trouble he was bringing
on himself. 1t turns out that he has
jumped from the frying-pan of Billy
Hines protest and clamor into the fire
of McDonald's wrath and Indignation.
The late appointee, who was so ruth
lessly jerked away from the pie-counter
upon the representation of the congress
man that he was not the proper person
to enjoy that particular line of pastry,
was at the White House today, insisting
on an interview with President Cleve-
land. He did not see Mr.. Cleveland, as
the latter is just now wrestling with a
trouble that sometimes results from over
indulgence in green fruit. He found
the patient Thurber, however, and pour
ed his tale of woe into the consecrated
ears of this factotum.
Mr.. Mcdonald wants to find the rea-
son for the withdrawal of his nomina-
ton. He understands that the president
was influenced by Hines representa-
tions that he, Mcdonald, was not resi-
dent of Kingston, and he desires to per-
sonally inform Mr.. Cleveland that the
congressman is in error, not to use a
stronger term. He says that his mother
lives just outside the limits of Kingston,
but as for himself he has been in busi-
ness in that town for years.
Mr.. Mcdonald probably does not know
that Hines told the president that the
appointment of postmaster at Kingston
was matter of political life and death
to him. He declared that if he could
not hand out the Kingston pie to man
of his own selection his influence in the
district was ruined and he could never
hope to be returned to congress. OF
course, Mr.. Cleveland did not care to
take the chances of losing congress-
man, even one who acted on the plat
form of voting according to the patron
age he received, so he recalled the Nc
Donald nomination and sent in that of
Nanscoy, Hines friend.

Cow Thieves Around.

That there are COW thieves prowling
around this vicinity was proven last
week by the recovery of a COW which
had been stolen. On May 25 Peter
Timony's COW failed to return home in
the evening, and after a diligent search
had been made it was advertised as lost.
On Friday Mr.. Timony's business mana
ger, 2. M. Sweeney, was through Sandy
valley. He noticed a COW grazing in
field and Immediately recognized itas the
missing one.
An investigation was made and the
man, Hungarian, who claimed to own
the COW was called upon to prove his
right to the animal. He showed re-
ceipt for S25, from James Crossin, of
Hazleton, which was dated May 29 He
said he purchased the COW from two
well-dressed men on that date, and had
no doubt about their ownership of it.
Mr.. Timony, however, had no trouble
in proving that he owned the COW, and
the Hungarian willingly surrendered it.
a bargain was made later by which the
Hun again bought the COW, and this
time he was given receipt from the
proper owner.
In Hazeton there is James Crossin,
but in justice to this gentleman it must
be stated that the descriptions given of
the two thieves do not apply to him,
and his name was used on the receipt
by the guilty parties to shield them
selves.

The Valley Wants Its Share.

The executive committee of the Trunk
Line Association met in New York on
Thursday, and among the questions con-
were the claims of the Lehigh Valley
Railroad for larger percentage of west
bound passenger traffic out of New York
city. Heretofore the company has been
receiving only per cent. of the total,
while lines of less Importance were
given larger percentage. The Lehigh
Valley some time ago demanded as its
share II per cent. of the total, and upon
falling to secure this flooded the market
with cut-rate tickets between New York
and Buffalo. a disastrous and far-reach-
ing rate war was averted only by the
association agreeing to take up the ques-
ton OF granting an increased percentage,
whereupon the Lehigh Valley withdrew
its cut-rate tickets,
At Thursdays meeting an agreement
was reached with regard to the distri-
button of business between New York
and Buffalo, subject to action by the
commissioners on any point of dispute
which might arise. Whether the Le-
high Valley secured the percentage asked
for could not be learned. The question
of the proper percentage to be allotted
to the Lehigh Valley on its through
business to the west was also taken up,
but action was deferred uutil Thursday
next, when the executive committee
will again meet in New York.
