TWO PHILADELPHIA SHOOTINGS.
Five Persons wounded, But Only One
Likely to Die.

Five Persons wounded, But Only One
Likely to Die.
Philadelphia, June 1.-Two shooting
scrapes occurred here yesterday in
which two men shot four women and
then attempted to take their own lives.
Out of the six persons, only one, wo-
man, is likely to die.
The first attempt at murder occurred
at Onley, a suburb OF this city, in the
afternoon, when William Keaton at
tempted to kill his wife, Ida, and her
sister, Annie Shellenberger. Keaton
and his wife had had q quarrel, and
she left him and went to her fathers
home. He called at his father-in-law's
house and without much ado shot the
two women. Mrs. GILES, 70-year-old
neighbor, who came to the door OF her
home to see what the noise was about,
was accidentally shot in the foot. Kea-
ton escaped in cab, but several hours
later he was arrested after he had shot
at himself twice, but missed each time.
None of the women will die.
The second attempt at murder and
suicide was the result OF a lovers
quarrel. Frank Wilmer, aged 21, asked
Mrs Mary Ruhl, aged 28, whom he was
counting, to marry him, but she refus-
ed. Wilmer then shot her in the fore
head and himself in the cheek Mrs.
Ruhl is not expected to survive her
wound.

viii Take a European Pleasure Trip.
Work Has Been Started For
the New Lithuanian
Parsonage.

Changes are in course Of arrangement in
the local letter carrier force and will be
effected within the next few days. They are
due to the resignation from the force of
Martin Malone, whose successor will be
Michael f. Durkin, the senior substitute
This will result in the promotion of Harry
Reese to senior substitute from the position
Of junior substitute, thus leaving vacancy
in the latter branch of the service.
Mr. Durkin is still doing substitute ser
vice. but Postmaster Bedea has forwarded the
necessary papers for the promotion to the
Department at Washington aud the endorse
ment is now awaited
When interviewed to-day Postmaster
Bedea stated that no selection had been made
to fill the vacancy in the position Of Junior

be taken until after Mr. Durkiu's promotion
is formally announced by the department at

PRESIDENT THOMSON'S SUCCESSOR.
Vice Presidents Green, PuGh and
Provost Are Mentioned.

Vice Presidents Green, Pugh and
Provost Are Mentioned.
Philadelphia, June THE board OF
directors of the Pennsylvania Railroad
company, at the special meeting today,
will adopt resolutions on the death Of
President Thomson. 1t is quite likely
that at the same time some informal
agreement will be made regarding the
date of a future meeting, at which Mr..
Thomson's successor will be chosen.
This, it is reported, will be done with
in the next few days, but as yet there
is nothing to indicate who will as
sumo the place. Many men are spoken
of, but the set policy of the company
to promote its officials is so we'll es-
tablished that any one outside being
called in is looked on as extremely
doubtful
The logical order of succession would
give the Office to First Vice President
John Green. 1t is not known whether
Captain Green would accept, as it was
stated he was not anxious to assume
the responsibilities of the position.
Another name prominently mentioned
is that of Vice President James Nc
Crea, of the Pennsylvania company.
Mr.. McCrea for years has been in close
relations with the management of the
Pennsylvania Railroad company.
Charles f. Pugh, second vice presi-
dent, is also mentioned, as we'll as
Third Vice President S. M. Provost.
The latter name is mentioned the most
frequently, and in case of Captain
Green declining the honor 1t is be-
lieyed by some that he would be chosen
by the board.

OPPOSED TO A MONOPOLY.
The Ordinance for an Independent Teie-
phone Adopted by Psttsville's Council.

The Ordinance for an Independent Tele-
phone Adopted by Psttsville's Council.
Two weeks ago tho Borough Council Of
Pettsvile postponed indefinitely two ordin-
ances granting the right Of way 10 as many
independent telephone companies, and IL was
generally understood that the legislators Of
the county seat would not again consider the
applications. The contrary, however, has
proven to be the case. At last nights meet
ing Of Pottsville's Town Council, George
Wadlinger. president Of one Of theindepend-
ent telephone companies, appeared before
that body and requested that action be taken
upon the application. He said
I'VE believe that VIC can give the people
Of this town aud county a better service at
one-half the cost than the present company
is giving and still make money. There is no
reasonable restriction that you may impose
that we will not meet. The Schuylkill Telo-
phone Company or the Postal Telegraph
Company can use our poles at half the cost Of
construction aud maintenance. We have no
connection with the Schuylkill Telephone
Company, but are organized on a separate
basis We are ready to build our lines but
we cannot give the people of the rest of the
county the service we would like TO give un-
less we get the franchise for the county seat. ="
Consideration Of the matter caused much
discussion, and motion to reconsider the
ordinance was carried by vote Of to 8,
after which the ordinance was given first
reading. 1t will be taken up and passed
finally at the next meeting.
The action of Pottsyille's Council should
have a salutary effect upon the members Of
Council Of this town, who have under con-
sideration a similar ordinance. 1t should be
passed without a dissenting vote, as the
people demand more equitable telephone
rate Council should relieve the people Of
the present monopoly. Pass the ordinance,
gentlemen of the Borough Council, without
further quibbling.
