Much Depends Upon When a Re.
publican Caucus Will he Held.
HARRISBURG, Pa, Jan. 2.-The
light for the next United States sena-
Tor from Pennsylvania depends large
ly upon the time Of holding the Joint
Republican caucus. Senator Ouay's
friends have fixed the meeting for to-
morrow evening, and. if a majority of
the Republican legislators attend. his
nomination is assured. His managers
predict, tonight, that the caucus will
De held at the appointed time, and that
there is no question of his success. The
opposition is Just as confident that
there Will be a postponement until aft

criminal charges against Mr.. QUAY.
growing out of the failure Of the Peo-
Pies Bank of Philadelphia. If they
can bring about postponement they
believe, Mr.. Quay cannot be re-elect-
ed They have been working hard ALI
day to persuade enough Republican
senators and representatives to stav
away from the meeting to prevent q
majority. One senator and three mem
bers from Delaware county, agreed to-
night to stay away from the gathering
This action was taken after one of their
number, c. D. Bliss, was defeated for
speaker Of the house Of representatives.
Several other senators and members
VIII not go into the caucus, but neither
side can give any definite information
as to the number.
The selection Of John r. Farr for
speaker, has little or no bearing on the
senatorial situation. He was the origi
nal selection Of Senator David
Martin, of Philadelphia, who is counted
against Quay. The Quay people, how
ever. turned in and helped nominate
Farr. The friends Of Senator Magee.
the anti-Quay leader in Western Penn
sylvania, voted for George M. Hosack.
of Pittsburg, and the ultra-Quay peo-
pie cast their ballots for Bliss. Senator
Quay spent a very busy day directing
his canvass from the residence Of J.
Donald Cameron. who came all the
way from England to help his former
colleague. Senator Boies Penrose, Con-
gressman Bingham and other members
OF the Pennsylvania delegation in con-
gress, are on the ground in Quay's
interest. The senator's Headquarters
at the Lochiel hotel, in charge Of State
Chairman Elkins, were crowded all day
with political workers from all over
the state.
A street demonstration was held to-
night by the Quay people.
Senators Martin, Magee and other
leaders, presumably opposed to Quay's
reelection, are expected to have con-.
ference before morning to determine on
line of policy relative to the sena-
torial caucus. If they stay away from
the meeting the Quay people are fear

WASHINGTON JAM 2-Nothing
more has been heard at the war de-
partment from Gen. Otis at Manila,
since his cablegram Of yesterday was
received. The situation is irritating
from the fact that according to the ex
perience Of the last few days it is not
to be expected that any thing more
can be heard from Iloilo for day or
two, at least, except in the very i'm
probable event that the American force
has been repulsed in their efforts to
make a landing, and has been obliged
to return straight to Manila. 1t is sur
missed from the reports that Gen. Mil
Ter Is proceeding with more tact and
with less roughness in his dealings with
the insurgents than appeared from a
first inspection of the reports. His
purpose apparently was to avoid such
formal recognition of the insurgents
as might tend to embarrass the United
States government hereafter, but at
the same time not to deal harshly with
them if they can be brought to see the
rectitude of his intentions. Therefore,
the officials are of the opinion that
there will be no actual hostilities be-
tween the forces arrayed against Gen.
Otis and his own, but that at the worst
the former will retire from the city
without accepting or rejecting the
American overtures until they have
heard from Aguinaldo. Gen. Otis has
taken steps to acquaint Gen. Miller
with the very latest instructions Of the
president, and special messenger is
now on his way from Manila to Iloilo.
Although officials express the strong
belief that no serious trouble will oc
eur, they have taken the precaution to
expedite the dispatch of military re-
endorsements to Gen. Otis command in
the Philippines. Orders have been is
sued for the Twentieth regiment Of in
fantry at Fort Leavenworth, to take
its departure so as to be in San Fran
cisco by the 7th inst, In order to en-
bark on the military transport being
fitted out to sail for Manila on that
date, If possible. The two other infan-
try regiments which are under orders
to proceed to the Philippines by the
Pacific route-the Third and Twenty
second-will follow as soon as means
of water transportation can be secured
Three other regiments are also under
orders to proceed to Manila by the
way of the Mediterranean and the Suez
canal. These are the Fourteenth,
Twelfth and Seventeenth infantry regi-
ments. They will make the trip on
the new transports Mobile and Mohawk
and unless present plans miscarry they
will embark at New York on the 17th
instant. Maj. Gen. Lawton, the hero
of FL Caney who has haen orderad to
take command Of the military forces
In the Philippines, under the direction
OF Maj. Gen. Otis, as niIitary governor
of the archipelago, Will accompany the
expedition from New York, after con-
ference here respecting the adm1nistra-
tion of affairs in the Philippines.

Wants an Accounting.

Thomas Davies, represented by his
attorneys, Hon. John p. Kelly and John
r. Edwards, filed a bill in equity in
the Office of Prothorotary Copeland
Saturday, against the Lackawanna
Coal company limited. He asks that
court direct the company to render an
account Of coal alleged TO be taken
from his land in Blakely. The tract
in question comprises seVenty-nine and
one-half acres Of land, containing 700,-
00O tons of coal. Mr.. Davies owns a
one fourth interest of it.
The company acquired from DR.
Comegys, w. r. Williams and a Mr..
Myer, partners of Mr.. Davies, the other
three-fourths interest in the land. 1t
is alleged that the company for some
time mined coal from his part of the
tract without paying royalties. He
now asks that the account be rendered
OF the amount mined, and that he re-
ceive his proportionate share OF the
money derived from the sale of the
coal.
Mr. Davies some time ago brought
suit against A. B. Russell to compel
him TO give an account OF the coal he
mined from The land during the time
the title of the property was in disnute
between Mr.. Davies and others against
Mr.. Russell which title the court de-
clared and the supreme court affirmed
was in Mr. Davies. Mr.. Davies title
Is from the same source as that Of the
Lackawanna Coal company.

Another new and important office
has been created by the Lackawanna
and 1t is from the west "Chief Road
master Patrick Leydon" tells of the
office and it's incumbent.
Mr.. Leydon has for a number or
years been associated with western
roads i'm similar capacity and was
lately with the Queen and Crescent and
Rock Island lines. He formerly lived
in Scranton and drove spikes as an or
dinary lahOrer on the Delaware, Lack
awanna and the old Pennsylvania graV-
ity road at No. II level.
In his new office, Mr.. Leydon Will
have supervision of all the roadmasters
on the Lackawanna lines. They are
eight in number and are as follows:
Patrick McKeown, Buffalo to Bath;
James p Wynn, Bath to Binghamton;
Patrick Bowling, ,Binghamton to Scran-
ton, Martin GILL; Scranton to Washing
ton and Scranton To NOrthumberland; F.;
James Sexton and James Naphus, who
have charge of the two sections of the
Morris and Essex division and the two
roadmasters of the Syracuse and Utica
divisions. respectively.
Mr.. LcydOn is q direct appointee of
President Trucsdale and is now in New
York organizing the new department.
1t is expected. but as yet not definitely
settled. that the headquarters of the
new department will be in Scranton.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1899-06-26

tion asking for the appointment was
made by Mrs. Margaret Walsh, the
sister of Patrick Sweeney. The eldest
child is 16 years of age.
Judge Edwards named James Con-
nors, of Jessup. as guardian.
The petition filed in the case and the
testimony heard show that Sweeney
and his wife are worthless, dissolute
characters. Both are addicted to the
excessive use of strong drink. In 1887
Sweeney was sent to the pcnitentiary
for nine years for robbery and when he
returned from his term of imprison-
mcnt he became if anything more dis
soute than he was before his convic-
tiOn.
The boys, who work in the mines at
Jessup, say the parents would draw
their pay and spend it for drink and
go to the company store and get arti-
cles of food and charge them against
the boys wages and then proceed to
pawn the goods for drink. The boys
say they went to work many a day
with nothing but a crust of bread in
their dinner cans and often went sup
PEERLESS to bed.
