United states Refuses to Arbitrate.

Austria Hungary's proposal to ar
bitrate the claims for damages arising
from the death of Austrian-H Hungarian
subjects during the Lattimer afTray in
September, 1897, has been declined by
the United States government.
At the outset the state department
called the matter to the attention of the
governor of Pennsylvania, who in turn
awaited the action Of the jury at Wilkes
barre, which tried the sheriff on the
charge of murder. The jury acquitted
the sheriff, whereupon the Pennsylvania
authorities held that they could not
recognize responsibility which a jury
had held did not exist. The state de-
partment took u similar view, where
upon Austria Hungary proposed arbitra-
tion of the claim with the result above
told.

on the porch of Laudenberg's house.

whole thing was lie. Laudenberg
ordered his guest from the premises,
and when he refused to go, he went
upstairs and got his rifle
Returning, he again commanded his

The distance from Boston to Pttsburg
by this route would be shortened $50
miles or five hours and from Boston to

In this region short branches would
connect the new road with the Reading,
Jersey Central, Lehigh Valley and Della

roads, and on its way here it would cross
the tracks of the Delaware, Lackawanna

The line would pass through Il field of

with 100 more. 1t would thus be

NEW ROUTE TO BOSTON.
PLANS ARE MATURING FOR A COAL
ROAD TO THE EAST.

Central Massachusetts Railroad Interests
Are Working Quietly to Tap the Le-
high Region and Shorten the Distance
from Boston to Putsburg and Chicago.
Few railroad men of experience have
ever looked, at map of the United
States without thinking what tremen-
dons saving in time could be made in
running trains from Boston to the West
if few hundred miles of road were
built from the Hudson river to the an
thracte coal fields.
Thirty years ago the advantages to be
derived by the building of such branch
were recognized by New England
capitalists. Companies have been or
ganized at different times to build the
road, various surveys have been made,
charters and rights of way secured, but
all so far came to naught, principally
because of the difficulty in obtaining an
outlet for the road from this region to
the West.
The TRIBUNE is advised from Boston
that this difficulty has been overcome.
PLANS AXE MATURING
for the placing of the Central Massa-
chusetts Railroad on subtantial footing
when the Boston and Maine Railroad
lease is broken, which the interests back
of the Central Massachusetts feel
confident will be done.
The proposition which, it is alleged,
has been favorably received by all parties
interested, is to connect the Central
Massachusetts with the Pennsylvania
Railroad by the construction of line
from Holyoke or Springfield, Mass, via
Newburg, N. Y, and Port Jervis, N. Y,
to Tomhicken, this county, a distance of
253 miles, using the Newburg, Dutchess
and Connecticut Railroad in part be-
tween Newburg and Springfield.
The road west from Port Jcrvis would
follow survey made about fifteen years
ago by company having similar
object in view 1t would cross Pike and
Monroe counties, go through the
northern portion of Carbon, crossing the
Lehigh river between the Tannery and
White Haven, come up through Sandy
valley and pass within

DESERVE BETTER TREATMENT
Abilene School Children Are Having
Chilly DAYS at School.

The Garfield school building has
been poorly heated in some rooms
this week. One room was dismissed
Monday afternoon, children in other
rooms sat with their wraps on yestcr'
day and this morning and general
SILVER marked the feelings Of the pu-
pills. In the high school the lloors
are so cold that the pupils have much
difficulty keeping warm and severe
colds result. The pupils OF Abilene
schools deserve better treatment II
the present heating apparatus Is not
sufficient to keep the rooms warm
suitable one should be put in-or else
school dismissed except when The
weather is warm. II is dangerous tt
health for children used to 50 to n
degrees to sit at their desks with Tho
temperature at 80 or 30. This is
serious matter and should hay'
prompt attention.
