Mr.. TOole and his friends reciprocated by
requesting the Shenandoah Drug Store man
agement to present the lady's wheel which
had been on exhibition to Miss Whitelock as
a testimonial for the formidable contest she
made and the request was promptly complied
with. The outcome of the contest and the

The first knowledge Of disturbance at
the Coke collieries reached brigade
headquarters In the morning, when
General Goblin received a dispatch that
200 miners at Buck Mountain, three
miles from Eckley, had gone on strike
and began to march on the Eckley
mine. Request was made for a de-
tachment Of the military to avert pos
sible conflict, but before the soldiers
could be started off to the scene the au-
thorities were reassured by the receipt
OF a second telegram to the effect that
the march had been stopped and no
further trouble was feared.
Late In the afternoon third dispatch
changed the situation for the worse. II
said that the march had been resumed
and carried to the Eckley mines, and
that the men there had been forced to
quit work, after rough handling by the
marching men. The City Troop Of Phila-
delphla. the crack cavalrymen, were in
stantly ordered to proceed 10 Eckley.

! POTTsvIILE, Sept. 14.-The case Of f. A
Van Yalkenburg, charged with conspiracy tC
bribe Representative Weiss, of Northampton
county, to vote for John Wanamaker fol
United States Senator, was called before
court late yesterday afternoon, when it was
discovered that the original Indictment was
missing from the district attorneys court
papers. Van Valkenburg's counsel offered to
furnish copy, and it was decided by the
court to finally dispose of the matter to-day.
1t was intended to proceed with the case
this morning, but delay was caused until
noon on account Of some of the counsel being
engaged in the Cass township case. At noon
the case was taken up by Judge Savidge and
there was quite an argument on a question
arising over the bill of particulars. The
court ordered that the prosecution present
the bill at two o'clock this afternoon.
At p. N. the case was called up again.
An important witness in the case is a brother
of Van Valkenherg, the defendant. A physi-
clan took the stand and swore that the wit
ness was seriously i'll at the Merchants hotel,
Pottsville, and not able to attend court. The
case was then postponed until Thursday
morning, next,
Van Valkenburg was in court and attracted
uluCL dtJeuJluu from lne large crowd present.
Representative Weiss was also here, and yes
terday afternoon General Frank Reeder ex-
Secretary Of the Commonwealth, came up,
as did M, Q. Luckenbaek, on a train from
Philadelphia. The two latter are under bail,
as is Detective ]. NJ. Tillard, to answer
charges of conspiracy to defame John Wana-
maker in the alleged bribery case that CON
stitutes the basis of the trial here.

SUCCESSFUL OPERATION.
Paying Teller seaman Had a very Narrow
Escape.

When IL was reported yesterday that Mr..
Thomas M. Scanlan, the paying teller at the
Merchants National Bank and son-n-law Of
Hon. NJ G. Watson, was very i'll at his home
on West Cherry street It was not realized
that death was as near as subsequently
became known. Mr.. Scanlan was attacked
by appendicitis last Friday and his condition
became more precariOus each day IL was
decided yesterday to summon Prof Deaver, a
specialist Of Philadelphia and last night he
performed an operation, removing the vermi-
form appendix. The operation was highly
successful and the patients complete recovery
is now confidently looked for although Prof
Deaver says that Mr. Scanlan's escape from
death was a narrow one. Had the operation
been deferred death would have resulted
within twenty-four hours. The announce
ment Of the successful operation and the
patients chances for recovery is accepted
with much qualification. Mr.. Scanlan is
held in high esteem and any other result of
his illness would have been received with the
deepest regret Prof. Deaver is professor Of
applied and surgical anatomy at the Univer-
sity Of Pennsylvania and also surgeon to the
German Hospital of Philadelphia. He was
assisted by Drs. D. ]. Langton, Ct. NJ.
Hamilton, J. s. Callen, w. N. Stein and also
