THE BOARD
UNDER ARREST
Steps in the First Ward Election
Cases.
THREE MEN UNDER BAIL.
The Judge and Inspector of Election
and the Ward Constable Waive a
Hearing on the Charges.
THREE MEN UNDER BAIL,

The First ward election case was
brought to focus last night by proceed
ings before Justice Martin Lawlor, insti-
tuted by the elected Overseers.
Messrs. F. G. Reese and Maurice Morri.
son went before the Justice and swore out
warrants for the arrest of two members
of the election board, Martin Mullahy,
the Judge, and Martin Lally, the In
spector, and constable of the ward. Two
of the accused men were at once arrested.
Lally waived a hearing and entered $500
bail for trial at court, William Mcclure
the president of the Town Council, fur
nishing the bond. Constable Giblin also
waived a hearing, and John Slattery
furnished bail for him.
The warrants were issued at the
instance of T. R. Beddall, Esq, who has
been employed as counsel by the prosecu.
tors and who will have the assistance of
other able counsel to help the Common.
wealth when the cases are brought up for
trial.
The specific charge made against
Mullahy and Lally is as follows "That
when, on Tuesday, February 9th, 1895
they did present to the election officers of
the First ward of the borough of Shen-
audoah the certificate of their appoint
meut as Oyerseers of the election held in
the said First ward of Shenandoah, on the
day and year above written, Martin
Mullahy, Judge, and Martin Lally, the
minority inspector, of the said district,
did refuse to permit them to perform the
duties enjoined upon them, contrary to
the Act Of Assembly made and provided"
The warrant upon which the constable
was arrested is in substantially the same
form, and recites that he elected the
Overseers from the electors room and re-
fused to permit them to be present etc.
Judge of Election Mullahy appeared
before Justice Lawlor this morning and,
like the others, waived a hearing and
entered $500 bail. Tax Collector Scanlan
furnished the security.

EXPLOSION AT WIN. PENN.
Three Men Were Burned, But Not
Seriously.


Seriously.
An explosion of gas occurred in breast
of the VIM. Penn colliery, at $50 o'clock
this morning, by which three men were
injured but fortunately the results of the
accident were not of a very serious
character The victims were Thomas D.
James, the fire boss, and Felix Adrich
and George Kupchinski, two Polish
residents of town.
James received burns about the face,
Adrick was burned about the face and
neck and Kupchinski had his head
scorched.
1t is not known exactly how the ex-
plosion occurred The three men entered
the breast, with the fire boss in
the lead and after they ascended some
distance the explosion occurred. 1t was
supposed the place was free of gas. The
explosion was light one, The gas i!
supposed to have been ignited by one oI

Saturday evening, February 23rd. Mr.,
Young has just concluded most
triumphal tour of the South. Hamlet, %
the play he has made his most careful
study will be given on Saturday night
and it is the most popular with the
masses of any of the great bard's writ
ings. All the costumes, scenery and the
effects are the same as used in the New
York and Philadelphia productions. In
the latter city the production had run
of eight weeks to packed houses.

Water Works Superintendent.
A report got abroad to-day that the
Democratic members of the Borough
Council have decided to make a bold
stroke before relinquishing th-ir control
by appointing James Bell superintendent
of the public water works for term of
five years.
Citizen members of Council who heard
the report manifested no uneasiness.
They say no appointment of that XII ID
can be legally made until the Office is
created by Council, and it can only
be created by ordinance. To give an
ordinance force it must be read be-
fore the Borough Council three times
and published ten days. This cannot be
done within the time that is TO elRpse be-
fore the new Council will organize. Coul-
Gil will hold a regular meeting tonight.

A Little Chit Chat on Election
Results.
MANY CREDIT SEEKERS |!
Results That Show the Good Effect Of
Thorough Organization for Work in
Local and Other Campaigns.
MANY CREDIT SEEKERS !

The election is over, but it will take
some time for its effects to pass away,
The Democrats are, quite naturally, very
disconsolate and the Citzeus are pro
portionately jubilant. 1t is now that the
men who did the work that counted
are appearing, and they are very numer-
GUS. 1t would take census enumerator
to enroll them. AS usual, a large mum.
Der of the claimants are not bona
fide The men who were of actual
service are found among the silent
guard; few in number, but strong in in
fiuence. They generally carry their
honors modestly. Among these men is
William 4. Trezise, one of the present
School Directors of the Third ward. 1t can
be said without fear of contradiction that
no man in the borough worked harder
and more persistent for the success of the
Citizens ticket in the campaign just closed
than the gentleman named, and there was
hardly an important move made in any
of the wards that did not owe either its
origin or propulsion to some idea, or
la Dor, on his part. 1t is regretted that
the majority of the Citizens party is not
constituted of such wide-awake, active,
dlligent and untiring workers as Mr.
Trezise. If such were the case there
would never be any doubt about the
selection and election of suitable men to
take charge of the borough's interests II
should also be said of this gentleman
that, while he is a party worker, he is
liberal and displays judgment which is
| about as faultless as most men are en-
dowed with. To his judgment much is
due for the election of such trustworthy
men as T. r. Edwards, j, J. Price and 7.
S. James to the School Board. 1t is
ventured that more competent and
e,timable trio has never been elected to
| the Board.

opportunity on Tuesday to get a whack
at some people whom they believe failed
to stand up for Mr. p. j. NJ. when that
gentleman was aspiring to supervise the
accounts of the county. Politics make
strange bed fellows
The Polish and Lithuanian element was
a very important factor at several of the
polls. They were out openly for the Citi-
zens ticket this spring, and many were
noticed with their sleeves rolled up to the
shoulder. Still, quite a number stood by
the Democratic tickets, evidently i'm.
pressed with the idea that sometime the y
may become recipients of some patronage
from Washington, D. G.
If the Citizens party is discrete and
iudicious in the management of the bor-
ough affairs it can hold lease on it for
years to come. There is no doubt that a
great many Democrats are so thoroughly
disgusted with their party in all affairs,
local, state AID national, that with evi
denc9 OF disposition to do what is right
by the party in power will almost convert
them. An honest, fair and straightfor-
ward administration will eventually kill
the Tiger that has been preying upon the
town.
In discussing the causes and effects Of
the campaign and the influence that
brought them about the Shenandoah
Repu ublican League should not be lost
from sight. This body has effectually
demonstrated what can be accomplished
by thorough organization, The Borough
Auditor, three School Directots, three
Councilmen and two of the Assessors
elected are among its members.

The Democrats were not Gin it'' in the
Second ward from the time the polls
opened to the close. They had bu, 40
straight votes, while the Citizens party
had 173 Tie real fight here was between
P. j. Ferguson and f. E. Magargle. The
rest of the ticket seemed to drift with this
part of the Councilmanic result. The
surprising majority given TO the Citizens
candidates can be accounted for in many
ways These candidates were assisted ma
terially from what became known as "a
bank fight" To the uninitiated there
should be some enlightenment on this
point. Mr.. Ferguson is the president Of
the First National Bank, which has held
the deposits of the borough treasurers for
many years. Recently the Merchants
National Bank has shown a disposition
to become the depository of the borough's s
funds,a and when arrangements were made
for the election the friends of the latter
bank were not blind to its interests This
fight explains the influence openly turned
in favor of the Citizens candidates on
election day by the Bradigan faction, Mr..
Bradigan, the present borough treasurer,
being one of the Merchants Bank stock
holders.

One of the excellent results Of the elec
ton in the Fifth ward to the Citizens
party is the capture of the election board.
The oldest inhabitant says it has always
been Democratic. John Leuahan has been
the Judge of Election for many years, and
to him vacating the position is much like
abandoning homestead. Larry Cullen's
defeat for Assessor in that ward has an
effect similar to that caused by Mr..
Lenahans retirement. Larry has been
Assessor for several years and is well
spoken OF by people of both political
parties, but he was obliged to go down
before the cyclone as the people would
not discriminate when at the polls. The
defeat of IL. j. Muldoon, the Democratic
candidate for School Director, was big
surprise to his friends. They did not

brought the deal to close. They not only me-
gotiatei the sale, but also lease of the prop
erty for is years.
The purchaser is A. Curtin, a retired whole
sale tobacco dealer of Utica, N. Y. The price
paid is $55 900 The same property was sod
in 1881 for $4,000.
The leesees are Me;srs. Nolan, Smith &

not male public, but 1t Is claimed Mr.. Curtin
will get FER cent net on his investment
Work on the new building is to BIS COM

some other site. The congregation will build
a new church, but the site, cost and plans have
yet not been decided upon.
The money + ,r tile new block has been raised
and is lying in escrow in the Southern Califor-
mia National bank. 1t is quite likely that Gen.
eral Gordon, who recently purchased the go
feet adjoining the church property on the
SOUTH will join with Nolan, Smith & ridge in
the erection oil a double but ding, which will
have a frontage on Broadway of 40 fee. GEN
eral Gordon's 10. is lao feet deep. The church
lot has only 80 feet front on Second street,
The sale of this property and the erection OF
a fine building upon it, will further stimulate
the movement of property on South Broadway,
which has shown remarkable activity of late.
