scheme, or more properly speaking,
mutual protective organization,
has been effected for promotion of
the manifold interests Of the Ha-
waiian planters.
It is proposed to work on a basis
of 100000 tons, that number being
apportioned among the different
planters. Upon this amount an
assessment of 81 per ton will be
levied and collected for the year
1894, 50 in 1895, So in 1896, So in
1897, making the total amount
available, 100000. This sum will
be used toward advancing the in
terests of the sugar barons in max
ing satisfactory arrangements for
marketing their product and to
cover expenses connected there
with. An effort will be made to
make a more beneficial scale of
prices for sugar with the American
Sugar Trust than enjoyed at present.
If this cannot be accomplished,
then the planters will proceed to
market their crop to the best ad-
vantage possible with other par
ties. The sugar men say they pre-
fer to sell their output to the Trust,
but want to be in a position to die
tate instead of being dictated to in
the matter. Hence the organiza-
ton Of the society, if it may be
termed such.
The present contract with the
American trust will expire in 1897,
and in the meantime various OBJ
jects of the combine will be more
fully perfected. Some time during
the next month officers will be
elected and everything in working
order.
A clause in the existing agree
ment with the American trust al
lows 20 per cent. of the Hawaiian
crop to be shipped around the Horn,
this year being the first time ad
vantage has been taken of the pro-
vision. Shipping between Homo
lulu and San Francisco has fallen
off considerably by such a course,
which is alike regretted by the
planters and general public.
It is understood that the scheme
spoken of was entered into heartily
by all the planters, and if it had

DIED IN SOUTH AFRICA.
Two Well Known Citizens of Homo
kaa Succumb to Fever.

Word has been received at Homo
kaa, Hawaii, by letter dated May
Is, from Fort Salisbury, British
South Africa, of the death of Joseph
P. Ireland and Charles Schultz,
while prospecting in the vicinity of
Buleuwayo, Matabeleland. Both left
Hamakua about year ago for the
gold fields in company with two or
three others, and the two men died
of the African fever; as near as
can be learned, Mr.. Ireland in a
tent in the camp on January 1st,
and Mr.. Schultz five days later in
q store about four miles from the
camp. A Mr.. Clark, who was a
member of the party, had pre-
viousIy been killed by lions and
carried away.
Mr.. Schultz had been everseer
on the Kukuihaele Plantation.
Mr.. Ireland was a man some
thirty-fve years Of age, and a
native of Glasgow, Scotland, from
which place he came to California
as a sailors apprentice. He was
employed in California as rancher
and sheep man, and later as a
miner, being at one time half
owner of a placer mine, for which
he refused $4,000, but it soon after
worked out and left him poorer
than when he went into it. He
came to Hawaii about twelve years
ago, and, with two others, acquired
the land and opened up the Homo
hinu plantation, but others reaped
the benefits. For ten years before
going to Africa he was employed as
an overseer on the Honokaa plan
tation. He was member of Male
Lodge No. 4, Knights of Pythias.
The members of the lodge will
settle up his affairs and communi-
cate with his sister in Glasgow.

been necessary, a much larger
amount could have been procured
for carrying out the intentions of
the combination. No trouble was
experienced in securing the 100000
tons required. Representatives of
a large sugar concern readily at
tached their signatures to the arti-
cles Of agreement, but when the
matter was laid before the head of
the house, who resides in another
country, he refused to sanction the
course Of his local representatives.
However, this refusal did not inter
fere in the least with the plans of
the combination, and the requisite
number of tons was secured with
out the cooperation of the party
mentioned.
In the event of arrangements
satisfactory to the planters being
made with the American trust,
then the amount subscribed will
be apportioned and paid to the
subscribers as dividend. The
planters say they were COM
PEELED to take some such steps as
outlined here, their interest being
jeopardized under the existing
state of affairs. With 100000 at
their command, the sugar planters

The Republican also offered for $40 to
publish the ordinance, print posters, and
circulate a copy of the paper in every
house in Shenandoah, estimated at 5000
copies of the paper.
Solicitor Pomeroy stated that while
Council would be strictly complying
with the law in having the ordinance
published in one of the county papers,
still it would be better to have IL pub
James said that bids were asked because
the home people take advantage and if
Council should give the publication to
one of the highest bidders the Others
would not bid again.
Mr.. Gable moved that the contract be
awarded to the lowest bidder. d, h.
James said the ordinance ought to be
published in town paper, and so spoke
Mr.. Straughn. Mr.. Meluskey said he
was of the same opinion and only asked
for bids from others because he was in
structed to do so by Council. The motion
was eventually carried.
Mr.. Straughn of the law committee,
stated that the claim of Mrs. Lambert
for $3.50 for damages sustained by falling
upon Lloyd street pavement, had been
investigated and that the lowest amount
Mrs. Lambert would accept was 500. The
committee had requested an itemized
statement, but had not yet received it.
The case was referred to the Borough
Solicitor with the evidence taken. He
also stated that the Jones case has not
been considered yet. The committee feels
that something should be done in refer
euce to the claims for damages against
the borough, Either suits should be in
stituted against the property owners, or
the Chief Burgess should be compelled 20
enforce the ordinances, especially as to
the condition of pavements. The Chief
Burgess appears to be too good hearted
Claims for damages estimated between
$500 and 81, 900 are hanging fire.
Mr.. Boehm, for the sanitary committee
stated that affairs were as stated at the
last meeting and he didn't think any
thing had been done with regard to the
nuisances reported.
Mr. Gable complained that Henry l.
Jones was dumping refuse on lot al
the west end OF Oak street under per
mission granted by the Health Ofice
and the dumping was creating grea
nuisance, He also stated that people ar

A CHILD'S ESCAPE.
Found and Discharged a Revolver,
But Without Injury.

Dut WlluOul LII july
Benjamin, the four-year old child Of
G. & l. policeman Peter Kreiger Of East
Coal street, had remarkable escape from
death yesterday afternoon. While its
mother was in. the yard he child climbed
up to the drawer of a cupboard and
secured a revolver. 1t took the weapon
up to bedroom on the second floor of the
house and there disch arged it. Fortu-
nately the bullet spent clear of the child's
head and went out through a window pane.
The face of the child was slightly burned
by powder This family has a record of
tragic events. Two and a half yearL ago
Jacob, the 19-year-old son, fatally shot
himself while handling a rifle. This
occurred in the same room in which the
child had its escape yesterday. About
seven years ago another son, John, aged
20, was killed at lumber pile almost in
front of his home. The lumber rolled
upon him while he was playing at the

THE BOROUGH COUNCIL
The Second Regular Meeting for the
Month of April was Held
Last Evening.
THE APPROPRIATIONS MADE
PUBLICATION OF THE WATER WORKS
ORDINANCE TO BE MADE IN A
COUNTY SEAT PAPER.
The Law Committee Reports on the Lam
bert Case for Damages, and The Chief
Burgess Comes in for COnSid-
cradle Censure.

The Borough Council held a lengthy
and very important meeting last night.
1t was after eleven O'Clock when the
Councilmen wended their ways home.
The members in attendance were Messrs.
Hand ,Dougherty, Kerns, Kane, Meluskey,
T. J. James, Boehm, d. r. James, Gable,
Magargle, Reese, Straughn and President
Mcclure.
Tax Collector Scanlan was present and
called attention to claim made by the
Shenandoah Manufacturing Company to
right to exoneration from payment of
taxes. The claim was based upon reso-
luton the company claims was adopted
by Council on December 4, 1890, ~ fol-
lows:
Resolved, That all industries erected or
started in the borough of Shenandoah in
the Immediate future employing q
number of hands, the same are hereby
exempt from tax for borough purposes
for a period of ten years beginning, Janu
ary 1st, 1891. 1t was understood before
action was taken on the adoption of the
resolution that the Mahanoy City, Shen
andoah, Girardville and Ashland street
Railway Company would not come under
the provisions.
Mr. Scanlan wanted to know whether
| he should abide by the resolution. Mr..
Gable said there were other resolutions
on generations upon the records of
Council and they required that industries
should employ certain number of hands
to become entitled to the benefits. He
did not think the applicant was entitled
to exoneration under the provisions and
made a motion that no eXoneration be
allowed in the case which was carried.
| Mr.. Kane, of the roads and highways
committee, made a lengthy report in
which he stated that several squares had
been cleared of mud, and many of the
streets are in bad condition, especially
where sewer pipes have been laid. AT
these places the streets are almost impas
sable. The people who put in the pipes
should be commpelled to repair the
streets at their own expense. Complaint
was made about the accumulation Of
rubbish and stable refuse on the alley a
the rear of the Ferguson House. Mr.
Kane said the borough could not AFFORD
to remove the refuse and people whC
placed it there should be required to re
move it. Mr. Kane also said ne had beer
informed that stone some men had broker
at the stone crusher for the borough had
been taken by the Lakeside Electric Rail
way Company. He thought the company
should either pay the men who broke tn
stone, or the borough, If it had paid 70
the work. Mr.. Kane also said peopl
should not be allowed to connect wit
the public sewer.
T. j. James, of the finance COMMITTEES
presented the following report of est
mated resources and list of appropriations
which was accepted and ordered filed;
The evening herald. [volume] (Shenandoah, Pa.) 1891-1966, 1895-04-19

its appropriations. ID. r.. James replied
that it would be better to alter the ex-
onerations than to leave the fire apparatus
in dangerous condition. He said he
knew that the fire companies hadn't
suffi lent hose for fire on South West
street. He thought the delinquent tax
payers should be made to work on the
streets and that the money thus saved
could be devoted to the fire apparatus.
T. J. James wanted to know If all de-
linquents were going to work on the
streets how the Council would get cash
to run the borough. 1t will take from
$4,000 to $25, 900 to run the water plant
this year and the money from the delin-
quents is counted upon to help run the
borough He said he was anxious to keep
the fire department in excellent condition,
but the borough must have the money
with which to do it. Mr. James added
that, taking the Third ward for example,
there are over 500 voters in the ward, yet
there are 700 names on the exoneration
| list and ID. r. James could not find FIVE
names in the list that he knew. The
latter said he could and 25, too. 7. j.
James said that was the kind of a man
the finance committee wanted and he
handed the list to the other. D. j. James
took the list and said he would look over
it.
Mr.. Hand, of The survey committee,
said j. j. Franey wanted grade for
Plum alley and the Columbia Brewing
Company wanted one for Pear alley.
Borough Surveyor Gregory also spoke and
said he gave Mr.. Franey common sense
grade for Plum alley and it seemed to bt
satisfactory to the committee and prop
erty holders. The brewing company
wanted continuous grade for Pear allie!
from Oak to Cherry streets and he didn'
wish to give it until he could consul
Council. Such grade would make i
necessary TO cut down the middle of tn
alley as much as three feet. The brew
ing company wanted to pave half tn
alley if the borough would pave the rest
Mr.. Boehm said that if Mr.. Frame.
would take off the dirt he put on Plum
alley the grade would be in pretty goct
shape. 1t was intimated that the dir
had been put on the alley to make tn
roadway more convenient for the build
ings Mr.. Franey is erecting and that tn
! grade was sought to keep the alley II
conformity with his views as bearing
) upon the interests of his own property.
Mr.. Gregory said that Council ha
adopted no grade on alleys.
President Mcclure instructed the surve,
committee to consult with propert
= owners in the alleys referred to in orde
to ascertain if the proposed grades will b
5 satisfactory to them.

ported as having been properly trar
