From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
The anthracite coal trade remains in
Il state of dullness that is extraordinary
for this season of the year. There are
practically no new sales at tidewater,
the shipments made being on account of
orders accepted before the last price
circular was issued. The disturbances
in the the Lehigh region and the possi-
bility that other regions may become in
volved ought to be a powerful stimulus
to the trade, but it is not 1t is almost
entirely dsregarded The trade is drift
ing and until the retail demand springs
up there will be no great Improvement.
Some vague talk is heard of an in
crease in prices on October 1, but as
almost no sales are being made at the
July advance and as the labor condi-
tions are very unsettled, it is extremely
doubtful if any change is made.

UPPER LEHlGH NOTES.

There is rumor here that the trolley
road will come to town before the next
snow flies. 1t sounds almost too good to
be true, but there seems to be something
in the report A high official of Free
land, councilman it is said, was heard
kicking about the cost of soling shoes
every month, due to frequent trips in
this direction, and he is expected to
hasten the day when Upper Lehigh will
be connected with the electric line.
The first Saturday in many months
for the breaker to work full day was
accomplished last week. The collieries
are booked for six full days this week,
the first full week in over year.
Miss Bridget Malloy, of Philadelphia,
is the guest of her sister, Mrs. John

POSTMASTER APPOINTED.
Ii. #. Davis Named by the President t,
Succeed william F. BOYLE.


The formal announcement of the ap-
pointmcnt of Benjamin f. Davis as
postmaster of Freeland was made on
Thursday. 1t occassioned no surprise,
as all opposition to Mr.. Davis had van
ished some months ago, and his selec-
tion to handle Freeland mail was known
to be only question of time Mr.
Davis has not yet received official notice
of his nomination, but this is expected
TO come along in short while, anu the
change in the office will be made on or
about October 1. The new postmaster
has not decided yet who he will appoint
as deputy. The present deputy, Con j.
Boyle, will be retained until Mr.. Davis
becomes accustomed to the routine busi-
ness. There are several applicants for
The deputy ship, but before choice is
made the merits of each candidate will
be carefully considered, with view of
keeping the service at the high standard
maintained by the present force.
Upon his retirement Postmaster Will
liam f. Boyle will devote his entire at
tention to his grocery business. He will
go out of service with the respect of
every patron of the office. His strict
attention to business. his promptness in
investigating complaints and his thor
ough knowledge of the postal laws were
long ago recognized by the people of
town as something more than is ordin-
arily found in government officials, and
the best wishes of all who had dealings
with the Office go with him in his future
career.
b. r. Davis, the appointee, was born
in old Buck Mountain, Carbon county,
March 4, 1859. He is of Welsh descent.
both parents having been born in Mer-
thyr Tydvil, South Wales. When quite
young the family moved to Lansford,
where Ben began picking slate at the
age of nine. He worked about the mines
three years, then entered Neumiller's
store. Two years later he returned to
the mines, where he remained a year
and half; then, in 1875, he came to
Freeand. For two years he was clerk
in IL. c. Rooms store, spent the next
year at kutztown Normal School, after
which he returned to Mr.. Rooms en-
ploy, where he remained until January,
1887 when he became clerk for j. C.
Berner. Three months later he pur-
chased flour and feed business here
and has since built up y large trade.
He was married in 1882 to Miss Lizzie
Monroe, of Hazleton. He was elected
burgess of Freeland in 1889, has been
chief of the fire department for two
terms and chief of police one term. He
is staunch Republican and his appli-
cation for the appointment was endorsed
by Congressman Williams, Senator Quay
and other prominent men. That he will
prove as successful in his new position
as he has in other walks of life is conf
IDENTIFY predicted by his friends.

VIM. Birkbec last week entered q
suit in equity against Joseph Brkbecli
to retain the latter from selling hard
ware in the borough of Freeland The
plaintiff in his declaration states he
bought the defendants interest in a
hardware business for the sum of 50 600
on which the latter agreed to quit the
business. This he has failed to do,
hence the suit. Attorney G. o. Strob
represented the plaintiff and j. M. Carr
the defendant at the hearing in court on
Saturday. Judge Bennett reserved his
decision.
In May last, in Pittston township,
Thomas Sweeney, aged thirteen, was
shot dead by Lewis Troo, aged sixteen.
The latter was arrested, charged with
murder, and his case was called in court
last week. 1t having been established
to the satisfaction of the court that the
shooting was not Intentional, Judge
Lynch instructed the jury to return a
verdict of not guilty, which they did
without leaving the jury box.
Anthony Bendrft, the Plymouth Lith-
uanian banker who disappeared last
June, was arrested in Philadelphia and
brought to Wikesbarrc. He was given a
hearing and entered bail for his appear
ance at court. 1t is said that there are
$50 depositorS who will appear against
Bendrift They allege they lost over
$50, 900 in his wrecked bank
John Kentoth and George Yeager
were charged with refilling registered
bottles. p. M. Sweeney was prosecutor.
Judge Lynch interrupted the proceedings
by saying there was no question in the
matter except as to the disposition of
costs. As there was no evidence that
the bottles had been reliled the Jury
acquitted the defendants, but asked them
to pay the costs.
The case of the commonwealth against
DR.. John Fruit, of Hazleton, for shoot
ing Clark, was closed Thursday evening.
The defendant said his pistol had got
tangled up with his pocket handkerchief.
When he attempted to pull the latter
from his pocket the gun came with it
and falling to the floor it exploded. The
jury was inclined to believe Fruit and
accordingly returned verdict of not
guilty, but placed the costs on him.

Giants Defeated the Tigers.

An audience of over 200 people saw
the Cuban Giants defeat the Tigers here
yesterday afternoon by score of to A..
The local club was outplayed at the bat
and in the field and at no time did they
lead the colored professionals.
The Tigers were handicapped by
Culver, who was to catch, disappointing
them. McFadden went behind the bat
and did good work there, but Gillespie
on first was not able to cover that posi-
tion as well as the regular player, and
his absence in the field was quite notice
able. The club otherwise was composed
as previously published, Griesing play
ing centre.
The Giants had Nelson and ''Fatty"
Williams for their battery. Terrll,
Wilson, White and A. Jackson did the
diamond work, while o. jackson, Selden
and Barton covered the outlield.
Both clubs played a snapyy game at
the start. In the third inning the
Giants scored twice, in the fifth once
and in the sixth four times. The Tigers
made two rams in the seventh and two
in the ninth.
Pfrom had eleven hits marked against
him, but had he been given proper sup
port at critical points less runs woud
have been scored. He was very effective
when men were on bases. The Tigers
got seven hits off Nelson. The Cubans
had but one error, while the Tigers had
four of the costiliest kind they could
make
