Charley Lee Getting a License.

Five more remonstrances against the
granting of LIQUOR licenses We're filed
in the office of Clerk of the Courts
Daniels Saturday, making a total of
eleven that have been so far filed.
AS is it's annual custom the Bor-
ough of Waverly demonstrates almost
en- masse against the application of
Charles E. Lee. One of the allegations
is that he permits gambling to be car
ried on over the bar.
Newton township sent down remon-
STRANGE against George Van Sickle be-
ing granted license, alleging that two
OF the signatures to his petition, those
of William Garrison and Laton Ros-
encranz, were attached without the
consent of those gentlemen. Taking
off these names it would leave the pc
tition without the necessary number
of signers.

Testimony to sustain the common
wealth's contention was heard before
Judge Gunster, Saturday, in the in
junction proceedings brought by Mine
Inspector Edward Roderick to restrain
the Elk Hill Coal and Iron company
from operating its Richmond No COL
liery until certain repairs and improve
ments ordered by the inspector are
completed. Hon. e. N. Willard ap-
peared for the inspector and w. j.
Hand and /. II. Burns for the COM
pany.
A number Of experts and men who
have been employed at the mine went
on the stand and swore that it Is a
very dangerous place to work under
present conditions. Evidence was also
adduced from Inspector Roderick to the
fffect that the mine is extremely gase-
Gus and that the absence of second
opening makes possible a terrible
calamity should some accident happen
to the ventilation.
John Indian, who was foreman at the
mine for twenty-one years; Morgan
Davis, at one time general superintend-
ent of the company's works; =. j.
Moore, a Delaware and Hudson mine
foreman; Edward Eberson and David
Williams, until recently miners at the
Richmond, all gave testimony of it's
dangerous character. The last named
stated that on one occasion, when
trouble occurred in the shaft. the men
had to climb up the shaft on ladders a
distance of 300 feet and then be hoisted
in a bucket the rest Of the way. One
man, he said, is still suffering from a
cold which he contracted through this
Imprisonment.
Inspector Roderick explained the
workings Of the mine with the aid of
maps and other drawings, pointing out
how In the Dunmore or lower vein
there is no means of exit except
through the main shaft and how, If
anything happened to the brattice work
which regulates the ventilation in the
main shaft. the men at work in the
Dunmore vein would be smothered be-
fore they could be taken out.
He also detailed the other causes of
complaint heretofore enumerated and
explained what he would have the COM
pany do to comply with what he inter-
prets the mine law to be. The defense
will be heard this morning.

Every siding built during the last twelve
