Miners Get Judkmeae ARalnse the Oper-
ators of ArdmOre COsI BlIae.
After years of delay and litiga-
ton the attorneys for the plaintiffs
in the case of Mrs. Robert Nc
Cutcheon ct al VS.. White Ash Coal
and Mining Co., have secured judg
ment for their clients, and the
money is now in bank awaiting the
call of its owners. The Judgment
is for So, ,554.
The White Ash Coal and Mining
Co. was the last company to oper-
ate the Ardmore coal mines, and
when it suspended operations about
40 miners and other employees were
left without their wages. Investi-
CATION proved that the company
was not a solvent concern, and an
action was brought against num-
Der of stockholders who had nc,
paid up their subscriptions to the
company. After long and tedious
delays, caused by three appeals of
the case in the Texas courts, the
defendants finally gave up the fight
and paid the plaintiffs the full
amount of their claims.
The attorneys, Messrs. Led
better & Bledsoe, have advised us
that the claimants are scattered
widely, and it i, probable that some
Of them will never be found. Fol
the benefit of the parties concerned
it is asked that papers in coal min.
ing districts make mention of this
item.

In a recent issue of the ARD
MOREITE mention was made of a
young man who came here a
stranger and was suspected OF
having been exposed to smallpox,
and of his trouble m finding lOdg-
ing for the night. After examina'
ton by the physician he was per
mitted to take a room at Mrs.
Richmond's, on North CaddC
street, and remained there. Yes
terday the young man, who gave
his name as Giles Moore, mine
expert of Leadville, Cad, was re-
quested to advance some money on
his board and lodging. He gave
an excuse which gave him an op-
portunity to leave the house, and
when the evening passenger train
reached here he boarded it fOl
Gainesville and has not been heard
of since.

Applied to Wounds.


Applied to Wounds.
This afternoon w. f. Allen, a
farmer living near Sharrock's gin,
II miles southeast of ArdmOre,
came to town with his two sons,
aged 8 and 6 years, in search of a
maidstone. Thursday while the
boys were playing with their dog,
both were bitten on the hand by
the animal. The wounds were only
slight, but the skin was broken in
both instances. Upon investiga-
ton the father was satisfied the dog
was mad and Immediately killed
him. Neither of the children has
suffered from the bite, but as q
double precautiOn Mr. Allen came
to Ardmore in search of a mad
stone, which was applied to the
wounds

Sensational Feature Of the Days Pro-
ceedlnRs-Notes.

ceedlnRs-Notes.
Promptly at 10 o'clock this
morning Judge Townsend opened
two days session of court here.
This sitting was arranged for spec
tally to attend to the matter of
Strengthening out some inaccura-
cies in citizenship cases which had
in some mysterious manner worked
their way into the papers after the
cases were well on the way to the
court of final resort.
These inaccuracies generally con-
sisted of additions made to the
courts DEGREES. Sometimes the ad-
ditions were made after the appeal
as taken from the Dawes commits
sion rulings to the district court,
and sometimes after the cases had
been passed upon by Judge Town
send. In most of the cases salts
factory explanations were made and
the proper steps taken to correct
the record.
In other instances nothing could
be done owing to the absence of
attorneys interested. In one or
two cases the court became very
impatient, and declared that if a
proper showing was not quickly
made he would retire said attor-
neys from practice in his court.
1t is believed that in time the
records will be cleared of all errors
in these trying citizenship cases,
and the court can give time to
other things.
A number of Ardmore citizens
were in attendance upon today S
session, it being the general under
standing that the muchtalked of
mandamus proceedings, by which
certain citizens hope to get an
order of court compelling the
city authorities to order an election
for the purpose of testing public
sentiment on the question of incor-
poration, would come up.
In this they were disappointed
as Judge Townsend gave it out
just before convening the afternoon
session that he would not take VI
the Ardmore matter today. Wheth
er it will be reached at tomorrow
sitting is not settled, as the citi
l zenship business is the all absorb
ing question just now.

1t appears that the ARDMORErTE
was in error yesterday in stating
that the woman Mrs. Coin, who
died in Southwest ArdmOre yester-
day, had been forced to occupy a
pile of straw for a bed. A gentle
man called at this office this morn
ing to say that, while the family
was poor, the sick woman had at
no time suffered from a lack of
bedding.
Mrs. Coin was buried today at
Mcmillan, and relatives of the fam
lily have returned to the Benevolent
society the amount expended fol
the burial outfit.
The ARDNOREITE regrets that
any misstatement should ever creeI
into its columns, but as it is I'M
possible to avoid them every time
we gladly rectify any error if ad
vised of it.

Liability for Libel.

The Superior Court this week, in
an opinion by Judge Orlady, decided
a question under the libel law that is
of great Importance to the publishers
and proprietors of newspapers The
matter came up on an appeal from
the Quarter Sessions of Allegheny
county, in which court P. V. Bovn-
laneh was convicted of libel.
Xe facts we're few and the gisU of
,%e opinion is condensed in slngle
expression of the Judge. The defend
ant was the proprietor Of two news
papers published in the Hungarian
language. and on the trial for libel he
offered to prove that before the pub
lications of the libels he left the state
and. being half owner of the news
papers, before going away he IN
structed those in charge of the papers
not to publish anything against the
prosecutor or about him during the
attendants absence ; that during the
publication of these articles and while
he was away from the state, he hav
ing been compelled to leave, he knew
nothing of the libelous publications
but only learned of them after his re
turn. The court below refused t.
permit him to make proof of thes'
facts and a conviction followed unde
the charge of the court and the evi
dence which was adduced
From this the appeal was take
and Judge Orlady, after discussin
the law upon the question, say
among other things, if these allega
tions were established they would b
as complete a defense as proprieto
of a paper could make, except
denial of any ownership in the papei
The ruling of the lower court was r'
versed.

WITH both Houses of Congress in
accord with the President it is among
the good things in sight that the
greenback shall be no longer stock
jobbing thing for depicting the Treas
ury of its gold, now that the Presi-
dent recommends that it shall be
issued only for gold as well as received
as gold. Itis one of the mysteries of
the financial policy of the govern
ment that this S34s, 100000 of notes
should have been allowed for so many
years to terrorize and unsettle our
whole currency.
