TWO FATAL
ACCIDENTS
Miner Instantly Killed On a Railroad
Last Night.
SLIPPED UNDER A COAL TRAIN
Boy Killed This Morning while Descending
the Slope of the Suffolk Colliery In
Car-Both Victims We're
Residents of This
Town

Two fatal accidents we're added to the news
record within the past twenty-four hours,
one last evening, by which man was killed
on the Lehigh Valley railroad, at Browns
Vile, and the other this morning, when a
boy was killed at the Suffolk colliery. Both
victims we're residents of town.
The victim of the first accident was Frank
Frubleslzi, aged 20 years and residing on
West Poplar street. He leaves a wife and
child four months old. The man quit work
at Packer No. colliery at about FIVE o'clock
last evening and jumped on coal train that
was being pulled from a siding at the colliery
with the expectation of riding to this town.
1t appears that the train was made up of
condemned loaded cars and as soon as it was
pulled off the siding it was backed on to
another. Frubleski thought, as the train
backed that it was going west instead of
coming to Shenandoah and jumped. He
landed on a heap of steel railr beside the
track, which caused him to miss his footing
and slip under the train. His right leg was
cut Off between the ankle and knee and the
left foot severed at the ankle. He also sus-
tanned fracture at the base of the skull and
the left side of his face was stripped of the
flesh. Death was almost instantaneous.
The remains were removed to the family
residence.
The second accident occurred at six
o'clock this morning. at the Suffolk colliery.
The victim was Joseph Shoudis, aged II
years and employed as a driver Tho boy
was going down the slope in an empty car,
on his way to work, when he was struck on
the back of the head by a plank When
descending in the car he was facing the top
of the slope. Death was almost instan-
taneous. The remains were removed to the
home of the parents on South Bowers street.

TO SETTLE THE STRIKE.
A Proposition Made to the Miners by
Their EmpIoYers.

Columbus, o., Sept. 4-The end of the
great miners strike is in sight. Yes
terday afternoon the national eXecu-
tive board of the United Mine Work
ers agreed to recommend to the min
ers a proposition from the Pittsburg
operators for a straight price of 65
cents a ton, to continue in force until
the end of the year. A delegate conven-
tion of all miners who have suspended
work has been called to meet in Co
lumbus Sept s at 10 a. M, to act upon
the recommendation President Ratch-
ford and other members of the board
say there is not the slightest doubt
that the miners will approve the rec
ommendation. The proposition does not
involve arbitration, and in effect pro-
vides for an immediate settlement of
the strike.
President Ratchford said last night
that there were special reasons for the
board recommending the proposition.
In the first place, it comedies the min
ers a material advance. Had a 50 cent
rate been secured he is confident 1t
could not have been maintained for
more than 20 days. The proposition
does away with all the uncertainties
to a speedy termination. As soon as
the miners ratify the proposition work
will be resumed in all the mines.
In the second place the proposition
provides for a revival of the Joint con
ference for the adjustment of prices.
The operators are pledged to meet with
the miners prior to the termination of
the agreement and determine the rate
of mining for the next year. Both the
members of the miners executive board
and the operators committee are
pleased over the outcome of the con-
ference, and feel that public sentiment
will sustain their action.
Yesterday morning the operators
| committee renewed their first propo-
| sition for a "a cent rate pending ar
bitration. This was again rejected by
the miners board. Then the operators
committee got together and submitted
a new proposition for a straight price
of 65 cents, and after a long discussion
it was accepted by the miners, but sub.
| iect to the approval of the miners ri
large.
A circular has been issued by the
miners executive board setting forth
the above facts, and adding:
your executive board and district
presidents, after much deliberation anC
a thorough consideration of the propo
sltions, do recommend the 60 cent prop
osition as in their judgment the bes
that can be secured, because of tn,
circumstances that are apparent to al
who study market conditions since tn
Inauguration of the strike. You, how
ever, are the court of final adjudication
and must decide for yourselves gha
your actions shall be ana when worI
shall be resumed. Additional reason
win be given and a fun regort mad

Special TO EVENING HERALD.
HAzLEToN, Sept. 4.-The situation in this
region is growing serious. If some kind of
settlement is not made the whole Lehigh re-
gion will be plunged into one of the most
threatening conditions ever experienced in
the anthracite coal fields The foreign ele-
ment have everything in their own hands
and their leaders are unable to handle them
longer.
None of the collieries except Jeanesville
and Coleraine attempted to operate yesterday
Many Of the strikers were busily engaged
last evening shining up their firearms and
dozens Of revolyers were purchased. The
men positively assert that that they do not
wish to damage any property, but will battle
for their rights against the state troops, if
necessary.
The men did not resume their march to-
day, for the reason that most of the colieries
remained idle. On Monday a monster parade
will be held and on Tuesday the strikers will
march through the Lehigh region and per-
haps as far as the Wyoming Coal fields.
President Fahey is in the region busily en-
gagged in organizing branches of the United
Mine Workers.
What the outcome of the uprising will be
is simply conjecture, but one thing is certain,
that the operators owe it to themselves as
well as the community to bring about a
speedy adjustment of the trouble. Supt.
laval said to-day; 'The English speaking
employees are willing and anxious to return
to work, but nothing can be done with the
foreign element, which is in the majority.
The committee that held the conference with
the officials voted to return to work, and it i.
only on account of the foreigners that this
has not been complied with"

The Judicial Vacancy.
93tf

The death of Judge Weidman, announced
in these columns last evening, has caused
much speculation as to whether the two
parties will nominate candidates this year,
but under the constitution no election can
take place this year. Article " section 25,
Of the Constitution of Pennsylvania, under
the bead of THE Judiciary" pertains to
vacancies ON the bench, and is as follows
Section 25. Any vacancy happening by
death, resignation or otherwise, in any court
of record, shall be filled by appointment by
the Governor, to continue till the first Mon
day of January next succeeding the first gem
eral election, which shall occur three or
more months after the happening of such
vacancy" Judge Weidman's death having
occurred within three months of the coming
general election, his successor cannot be
elected under the constitution until Nov.
1897. Governor Hastings will therefore ap-
point person for the vacancy to serve until
the first Monday in January, 1899

PoTTsvILLE, Sept. 4.-Judge o. p.
