front and in battle they viii be cared for"
Governor Mount is again suffering con-
sderably on account of the accident he
sustained some days ago when he hurt his
leg in running to catch a street car. AT the
time his physician urged that he keep away
from the office until the leg was well but
the work of preparing the One-hundred
and-sixty-first Regiment seemed so impor--
tant that he did not regard the advice, and
is now suffering the consequences.

NO IMPORTATION AT WASHINGTON

Spanish Source, Created consider
able Interest in Washington
Among the Navy o1icials.

London, oct. 2O.-The Madrid corre-
spondent Of The Times says: Captain
Aunon, the minister of nssine, has re-
ceived a dispatch from Manila an
nouncing a naval engagement between
the Americans and the rebels, in con-
sequence of Admiral Dewey fOrbidding
the latter to fly the rebel flag from
their ships. The dispatch adds that
there were losses on both sides, but
that the Americans captured the rebel
ships. 4ghe scene of the engagement is
not stated, but 1t is supposed to have
been Manila bay"
Madrid, oct. 20-The cabinet today
forwarded to the Spanish peace COM
missioners at Paris an official dispatch
received from Manila reporting an en-
gagement between the American and
insurgent warships, growing out of the
refusal of Admiral Dewey to allow the
insurgents to fly their flag from their
ships.
Washington, Oct. 2O.-As far as could
be ascertained no information regard
ing the reported naval engagement has
been received at the navy department.
The dispatch created considerable in

newspapers contained a statement thai
Admiral Dewey had dispatched one oil
two Of his ships to another position o.
! the Philippine group on a mission o
some Importance, and the suggestion 4
made unofficially that it may have beei
these vessels which have been engaget

announced yesterday that the Philadel-
phia and Reading Railway company
has obtained control Of the Wilmington

war-Graph Entertainment.

Prof d. E. Frantz gave one of his famous
WarGraph entertainments in Nelson Me
mortal Hall on Saturday evening to an
audience which filled the auditorium. Nearly
all have seen the moving pictures, but never
before had they the pleasure of seeing the
actual scenes of battle reproduced on canvass
with the frightfully grim reality of deadly
conflict The scene Defending the Flag"
where few brave artllerymen hold their
gun and flag against the determined on
slaught Of a detachment of skrmshers, was
realistic enough, but the massacre of Cretan
women and the pillage of a Cretan home by
blood thirsty Turks was truly shocking to
sensitive nerves. The dynamite cruiser
Vesuvius Coughing huge shells at the
Spanish Notifications was an example of
gun cOttOn's terrific force and is scene not
to be soon forgotten. The entertainment
was one of the best ever given in Nelson
hall and the Epwort League, under the
auspices of which it was given, realized a
handsome sum.-Record, Kingston, Pa,

Several weeks ago the HERALD published
an item setting forth that an effort would be
made to have the Girard Estate reduce the
royalties paid them by the various corpora
tions holding leases under the Estate, and
that if this was not done the probabilities were
that many of the leases would not be re-
newed. 1t is now reported that the Trustees
have decided to offer more favorable terms,
and that a fixed rate of As cents is given.
This is reduction of six cents. Heretofore
the royalties were paid on sliding scale,
beginning with SO cents and running up to
81 cents. The p. & r. G. & l. Co., the Le-
high Valley Coal Company, the VIM. Penn
Coal Company and the Thomas Coal Com
pany are said will renew their leases
which run for fifteen years and have about
expired, under the reduced rate of royalty

last Monday and fractured the victims skull,
was again taken before Justice Shoemaker
last night. The prisoner had spent As hours
in the lookup, to await the result of the
injuries and learn whether or not he could
get out on bail. A message received from

but there was chance to save his life. Upon
this Justice Shoemaker decided to commit
Stuyanczak without bail, and the prisoner
was taken to the Pottsville Jail. The
prisoner claims that he struck the victim
when himself and wife were being assaulted

NO RELIEF AT HAND.
Peculiar Combination of circumstances al
the Post Onice.

A situation of somewhat singular aspect
has presented itself in connection with the
letter carrier force of town. Joseph Manley
and Michael Durlin are the two substitute
letter carriers on the force, and there can be
but two. Several months ago Manley ac-
cepted situation at Northumberland and
last August Durkin enlisted in the regular
army. Neither men resigned their position
as substitute carrier and tho force is now
left without relief. Postmaster Bedea
cannot remove them, and the department at
Washington has not seen fit to do so, al
though the facts have been laid before it. A
crisis has reached by the death of the father
in-law of Letter Carrier Reilly. Tho latter
must continue his work, even on the day of
the funeral, because there is no substitute to
take his place, and none of the other carriers
can cover his route without neglecting his
own. Substitute Manley cannot act at pres
ent, because the deceased is his father The
postmaster cannot even appoint temporary
substitute, only in case of sickness or death
of Il carrier.

Excellent ProdnctIon.

The production of '"The Prince of Russia"
at Ferguson's theatre last night by the
Lester Walter Company was an excellent one
from an artistic standpoint as we'll as stage
and scenic effects and costuming. Lester
Walter was a majestic Prince and threw ex-
ceptional power into the character. He was
ably supported, particularly so by Harry
Markham, Paul Carol and Misses Lylene
Radcliffe and Charlotte st. Felix, and Harry
Jenkins made his comedy role as funny as it
could be done. The specialtieS were also
very pleasing, and as a whole the production
gave entire satisfaction. Tonight there will
be another change of bill and Ragged Nell,
or The Power of Woman" will be the play.
