PROTECTING CRIMINALS.
Witnesses Who Refuse to Testify to the
Truth, the Whole Truth. Etc.

|
1t has frequently been noticed, not
only in LuZerne county but throughout
the anthracite coal regions. that when
a murder IS committed among certain
classes of foreigners it Is almost i'm
possible to eXtort the truth from those
who are cognizant of the facts In the
| case. These people, usually the lowest
class of Hungar.aas or Polanders, seem
to think that when a murder has been
| committed the best thing Is for every
BODY to Keep quiet and permit the anair
to be forgotten as speedily as possible.
In many casas when arrests appear
probable the guilty are aided to escape.
| and Il rarely occurs that one of this
class Is betrayed. not even by the
| friends of the person he may have
| killed.
\ si,rlking case IN point is that of the
| Polish miner who was murdered in the
Biackman mine q week ago. There is
not doubt that this man was deliber-
ately killed by fellow-countryman
who had conceived passion for the
mans wife. and neither is there any
doubt that wife had full knowledge of
the murder. 1t was as cruel and delib-
craze u lllulueT us mas ever bStil tuiii-
mitted anywhere. All indications point
to the fact that a number of other
Polanders who worked at the Baltimore
mines and lived in the same house with
H. murdered man and his alleged muir
lsrers could throw light on the crime
and be the means of convicting the
guilty parties. but not q word can be
5,-torted from any OF them. Alderman
Thomas has wisely decided to hold
these witnesses in heavy bail for their
appearance when wanted. Probably
not less than three-fourths of the muir
dsrs committed in Luzerne county oc-
cur among the class of people referred
to, but Caly few arrests are made. This
Is due to the fact chat when a person
has been killed all hands agree to know
nothing about it, \ dead Hungarian
or Polander of the lower classes ap-
pears never to have u friend or

that the governor had decided to ten

Some of the judges friends here are
inclined to doubt that he will accept

the offer comes to him. The judge,
however. is in the highest degree a SEN

The fact that Luzerne and Lackawanna

significant. The governor has appoint

CONCERNING POPULATION.
The New City Directory Contains 2s.Ol6
Names


The city directory for 1895 Is about
completed and the fact has been ascer-
tanned that It contains a little more
than 5000 names. on the customary
basis of figuring this would indicate a
population exceeding $4,000. but some of
the more enthusiastic citizens will not
consent to any estimate that falls be-
low 10000 That Wilkes Barre has been
increasing rapidly in population dur
ing the past five years is apparent TO
any one who resides here and has no.
ticed the building operations that have
been going on during that time. But
those who estimate the present popula-
zion Of the city at $1,000 are undoubt-
edly as wide Of the mark as are those
Scrantonians who are claiming l25, 900
for their city.
The question as to the population in
important and growing cities Is a mat
ter of speculation, and discussion at
nearly all times, but especially about
the middle of each decade. Now there
ought to be enough enterprise in such
cities to cause a careful enumeration
TO be made. five, years after national
census has been taken. This Is done in
some cities. usually as the result OF
newspaper enterprise. The suggestion
IL thrown out that 1t might not be a
losing enterprise for some one of the
newspapers of Wilke, Barre to present
to IT'S readers a COM plete enumeration
OF the city by wards. In a compact
city like Wilkes-Bafre'this work could
be done thoroughly in a half a day If
the city were ivlded into many dis
trlcts. and an intelligent man assigned
to each to make the enumeration. The
expense would not be great either. and
would be more than covered in value
as an advertisement to the paper sufi-
chiefly enterprising 10 undertake It..
