EXPLOSION INQUEST.
MahaDoy city ColIiery Accident Subject
of Inquiry.

Deputy Coroner Bissell, of Mahanoy City,
last night opened an inquest on the deaths of
John Stephen and Steve Sileski, who, with
nine others, were injured by explosions of
gas in the MahanOy City CollieTy several
weeks ago. Mine Inspector Stein was in
attendance at the inquest.
George Gilgore, inside foreman, said he
told all the men in the part of the mine
where the deceased worked to go home,
because they were short of plank, He
thought the deceased went home, until he
learned afterwards that they went into
breast 6s to find plank, and there set off the
gas.
Fire Boss Edward Golden swore that he
told the men not to go into breast 6S any
more, as it was not safe. The breast had been
abandoned about ten days before the explo-
sion Golden, referring to Sleski, said 81
told him / would knock his brains out if he
went in that breast again" This was prior
to the explosion. With the exception of the
battery door, the breast was bratticed to pre-
vent men from entering it. The air was cut
off by the closing of the heading. Witness
said he did not consider himself overworked
as fire boss, and every place he travelled in
the mine was safe.
Michael Kurtz, a driver, testified that four
or five minutes elapsed between the first and
second explosion. When asked when, before
the explosion he had seen the Inspector in
the mine, witness said from two to four
months, and that he visited the mine three
or four days after.
Mine Inspector Stein stated that the wit
ness evidence in this respect was not correct
Deputy Coroner Bissell said the Inspector
could take the stand after the witness, and
be put under oath. Mr.. Stein replied that he
| is always sworn officer.
Barney Sloan was called and said, II was al
my breast when the first explosion occurred
l called my butty down. l saw lights where
the leaders sit. l went to the lights and met
young Brennan at the door l asked what
had happened. The boy laughed as two meu
ran out through the doorway. l went to the
doorway, saw blaze, and was knocked un
conscious. The two men who set off the gas
were told to go home that morning. 1 nevel
saw the Inspector in my breast"
At this point the inquest was adjourned t
meet again at the call Of the Coroner.

TROUBLESOME PAY CHECK
John Koviok Finds Himself Prisoner by
Mistake.

rhe HERALD yesterday made a brief
mention Of the arrest of a man at the Potts
vile Office of the p. & X. @. & 1. Co. for
presenting pay check alleged to have been
stolen from man in Mahanoy City. Later
developments present the case in the light of
a comedy of errors.
1t appears that John Kovick, of Mahanoy
City, while intoxicated, gave his pay check
to a friend for safe keeping After becoming
sober Kovick failed to recollect what he had
done with the check, and concluded that it
had been stolen. He went to Justice Mays
Office and a warrant was sworn out with the
name of the defendant in blank. At the
same time the P. & r. Office at Pottsville was
notified to be on the lookout for anybody
who might present the check.
Subsequent to the swearing out of tho
warrant the check was returned to Kovick
by the friend in whose keeping it had been
placed. Kovick was so delighted over the
recovery of the check that he did not think
of notifying Justice May of the return, and
the warrant and orders issued remained in
force.
| Yesterday Kovick concluded to go to Potts
/ vile and collect the money. When he pre-
sented the check at the P & r. office the pay
clerk concluded that the thief had been
/ trapped. kovick was detained by converse
tion until an officer could be secretly sent for
and then taken to Jail, where he was kept in
a cell pending the notification of the Maha
noy City authorities and the arrival of an
officer. Meanwhile KoYick was mystifed
The more emphatic the prisoner
became in his assertions that he was
the genuine Kovick, the more the Jail OH
cals were amused. And such was the case
with Constable Leitenberger, who arrived al
the Jail 10 take the prisoner to MahanOy
City. Leitenberger was unacquainted witt
Kovick, and when the latter became des
perate oyer the situation the constable con
cluded that his prisoner was disposed to give
trouble, so the hand cuffs were called int
play. Koyick protested continuously duripl
the journey home that he was the rea
Koyick but Leitenberger only smiled anC
occasionally retorted, You're giving me
Spanish war story" 1t was not until the
manacled Kovick was presented before Jus
tice May last night that the comedy ended
and then all but Kovick laughed until theil
sides ached. Kovick did not join in the
merriment, because he was obliged to pay al
the costs, and he went home with very
small balance due him on the check
