Special TO EVENING HERALD.
MAHANoY CITY, Nov. 9-Following upon
the heels of the excitement attending the
election of last Tuesday are many rumors of
a sensational character which keep the poll
ticians here in "A warmed up state and within
the next forty-eight hours it would not be
surprising if big bomb would be exploded
and cause a stir throughout the county. All
day there have been mysterious movements
about the quarters frequented by Senator
| Coyle and his friends and after persistent and
diligent inquiry your correspondent has
learned that at least one law suit is to follow
the election.
The action is not to be of quo warranto
character and has no bearing upon the result
Of the election. 1t will be based upon a
charge Of libel. The alleged libel is said to
have been made during the progress of the
campaign.
The informant states that Senator Coyle
has sworn out a warrant for the arrest Of
Editor Parker, of the Daily Record, and the
case will come up some time this afternoon.
During the campaign quite number of
anonymous typewriter letters were sent to
prominent Republicans throughout the
county, making little Of them because they
were not more pronounced in their views re-
garding Judge Lyons candidacy. Some Of
the letters were scathing. One received by
Sheriff Comrey stated that the Republicans
would 'sacrify his shrivelled hide" if he
didn't vote for Lyon because Dunn's cleo
ton meant the sending of Protestant chill
dren to Catholic homes, etc.
One letter sent to Senator Coyle stated that
the reason he lCoyle) was against Lyon was
because the Senator was a Kilkenny man
like Dunn. Daniel Duffy, Shortall and
Others were recipients of the same kind of
trash
few weeks ago Editor Parker took cogni-
zance of the circulars and stated in an
editorial that they came from the same type
writer that sent out the famous last card"
in Coyles campaign. No names were mem
toned but Senator Coyle takes the stand
that the inference was strong enough to
convey the impression that he was the author
of the circulars
Senator Coyle appeared before Squire
DOchney this afternoon and sworc out a war
rant against Editor Parker, but at this writ
ing the warrant had not been served but will
during the afternoon some time. W. Potts
Ramsey represents the Senator.
] Politicians in both parties are manifestng
great interest in the suit, but it is stated that
the greatest bomb will not be cast for few
days, when a resident of this town will make
| charges bearing upOn alleged misconduct in
office by officials at the almshouse

WAS A TERRIFIC EXPLOSION
THE BOY DROPPED 4 BLAZING
 LAMP INTO AN OIL TANK.

Serious Fire in Bridgeport Last Night Great Excitement Among the Neighbours
 All Escape-Two Persons Injured-A
 Synagogue Endangered.
 Bridgeport, Jan. 31,-A fire, which threatened to do considerable damage, broke out at o'clock this afternoon in the store of Gustave Brooks, State street, in this city. A son of the pro prietor attempted to fill a kerosene lamp, but while he was engaged in pour ing oil into the lamp the oil caught fire in some unknown manner and the youth dropped the blazing lamp into an oil tank. A terrific explosion followed, and the flames soon spread to wood bin. In a few minutes after the inside of the store was in flames and the smoke was pouring out of the windows above. Over the store was the furni- ture stock of August Lieberum, and on the third floor was the Jewish syna- gogue, while on the west side of the building was tenement house occu- pied by Russian Hebrews.
 The tenement house was threatened by the flames, and great excitement was caused among the tenents. All es- capped after removing their furniture into the streets. The stock of Lieberum was damaged to the extent of about S,00O. Brook places his loss at $1,7OO. Young Brook was badly burned about the head and face by the burning oil. Thomas Broderic1, hoseman of com pany No. 1, was badly cut about the face and hands while breaking win dow in the store. The building where the fire occurred was four story af- fair, and the damage to that is esti- mated at less than $1,0OO; insured.

YAIE,s CLAIM STEEL STANDS.
She Has Not Receded From Her Original
 Position,

She Has Not Reoeded From Her Original
 Position.
 One of the officials of the Yale cor poration said. yesterday relative to the alleged compromise Yale is making in the matter of the Storrs Agricultural school fund: Yale has not receded from her original position nor will she. The appointment of a committee to arbitrate was simply in accordance with the act of the legislature at the last session which provided that Yale was to receive damages for former ine- qualities. The appointment of this committee a few days ago does not signify that Yale has abandoned it's claim to the annual fund and will have no effect whatever on the suit now pending in the United States court.
 Professor Brush, director of the Sheffield Scientific school, Yale's scien- tific department, sails for Syria to- morrow to be gone till April and the appointment of the committee to assess damages will probably prevent any further action hostile to Yale being taken during his absence.

netter earbage collecting wanted.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER; One would naturally think from all that has been written and said against the present system of garbage collec- ton and the garbage barrel teams used in this city during the last year at least, that the taxpayers would insist upon having the garbage wagon used which was invented by Walter S. Swayne and which is so made that the covers cannot be left off nor can any odor come from it. Much time and thought has been given by MT. Swayne to this invention, which is complete in every way and the best out for the work. Why not make a move in the right direction and that immediately?
