FATHER AND SON MET.
Edwin E. Everhart and His Father
Had an Hours Conference at
the Jail Few Days Ago.

Edwin f. Everhart and the father,
against whose life, it is alleged, he was
led to conspire, have met.
They were brought together through
the intervention of a member of the
Everhart household who, since Mrs.
Everhart's death, has been practically
mother to the wayward youth, and
who has never let two days go bv
without visiting him in his cell.
The meeting took place a few davs
ago and the interview lasted for nearly
an hour. What took place is not made
public, but it is said upon good au-
thority that nothing definite was done
towards releasing young Everhart.
The prisoner is now anxious to Sc
cure his liberty, believing himself fully
recovered from the effects of the de-
bauch that disordered his mind and
almost wrecked him physically. He
has claimed all along that he could
secure bail whenever he desired 1t, and
certain circumstances tended to cor
roborate him. Whether or not his
claim still holds good developments
alone will show.
Everhart's friends say he is very
much worried by a story to the effect
that an attorney has been engaged by
Mrs. Rinsland to prosecute him for
two alleged crimes, growing out OF
their intimacy.
She is now living at the home OF
her parents on the West Side, and
wholly without means. How abject
her condition must be Is demonstrated
| by the fact that she recently wrote a
pitiful appeal to her divorced husband
to help her.

FIVE PERSONS INJURED.
Two Trolley Cars Collided at Jermyn
with Serious Results to Passen-
gers-Names Of Injured.

Shortly after noon yesterday, two
street cars collided near the foot of the
hill outside the silk mill, on Main street,
Jermyn, and several passengers were
more or less injured, fortunately none
seriously.
The injured are: Mrs. Daniel Mad
den, of Olyphant, who is suffering
from a bad confusion of the knee and
shock: Mrs. Evans, of East Jermyn,
cut on side of face; Mrs. Edward
Furey, of East Jermyn, several bruises
on body; Mrs. Hammock, of Olyphant,
suffering from shock; Mrs. Mary
Burke, of Archibald, shaken up and suf-
fering from shock. The cars were an
open one, in charge of Conductor Cof-
fin and Motorman Ditmore, going
north, and a closed car, in charge of
Conductor Brownell and Motorman
Matthews, going south. Both crews
are men of experience, who have been
on the road for several years.
The accident, save in respect to the
fatality, is almost identical with that
which occurred at Duryea a week ago
on Sunday. The silk mill, where
the accident occurred, lies at the foot
of two hills. The cars We're both de-
scending in opposite directions at the
same time, neither being aware of the
approach of the other, as both con-
ductors are positive the switch lights
gave them a clear road.
The open car apparently reached
the foot of the hill first and
Motorman Dltmore applied the brake
and, reversing the current, jumped
off, all the passengers on his cal
getting off safely. Motorman Mat
thews, of the other car, as soon as he
saw the danger, likewise did all In his
power to prevent the collision, but was
unable to avert it. When the two car
came in contact the open car had al.
most come to a standstill, but the closed
car struck it with terrific force, the
crash heing heard for more than g
| block away. The front end of the CLOSED
car was forced in as far as the second
row of seats OF the open car the sidet
being pushed out by the front beam OF
the vestibule of the other car which
acted like a big wedge. The force o.
the compact was so great that the oper
car was forced back fully one hundred
feet.
The injured passengers were assisted
into the home OF Robert NJ. Max
well, proprietor of the silk mill, anC
medical aid summoned. DR.. M.
| Shields responded and later DR.. p. C
Manley arrived. After recovering some
what from the shock, Mrs. Madden anC
| Mrs. Hammock, of Olyphant, and Mrs
| Burke, of Archibald were driven t
their homes in barouche, supplied b!
| Assistant Superintendent Kelly, of tn,
street car line, who was promptly OF
the scene of the accident.
The closed car was, strange to say
| but slightly damaged. The force of tn,
compact, however, forced up the floor
ing, and 1t is thought that 1t was thi
which caused the injuries to the pas
sengers. The open car is almost a com
| plete wreck.
If the contentious of the two conduc
tors are correct. both men must hav,
turned the switch lights simultaneous
| ly, or, as is claimed at Duryea, tn
lights must have been tampered with

Bert Roberts, a young man employed
by Liverym..I George f. Atherton, was
last evening held in $500 bail by AL
derman Fidler, on a charge of admin
istering some drug, presumably chlo-
roform, to a young Peckville woman,
Anna Swingle, with whom he was out
driving.
The whole story of the affair is pc
culiar.
John Slattery, who resides on Carter
street, near the Priceburg boulevard,
was awakened about 11.30 O'Clock Tues
day night by woman's screams COM
Ing from the road. He armed himself
with shot gun before leaving the
house.
Going up the road short distance
he noticed a man entering a buggy
standing by the side of the road, evil
IDENTIFY attempting to run away. Slat-
terry covered him with his gun at first
| and ordered him to stop, when his at
tention was directed to a young wo-
man lying by the roadside and crying
| for help.
Mr. Slattery Immediately went to her
assistance and the man, taking ad-
vantage of this opportunity, jumped
| into the buggy and drove away.
The girl became hysterical and in a
few moments became unconscious. Mr..
| Slattery removed her to his home and
| summoned DIR. w. A. Peck, who, upon
his arrival, announced that she was
suffering from the effects or some
supplying drug.
She was partially recovered yester-
| day, but was unable to make any very
extended statement beyond the fact
| that she had accepted an invitation
| from the young man, whose name she
| gave as Bert Roberts, to ride home
| from the central city to Peckville.
Patrolman May, who was notified
yesterday, secured warrant for the
young mans arrest and he was, last
evening, arraigned before Alderman
Fidler. He waived a hearing and
George E. Atherton, his employer, be-
came his bondsman in the sum of $500.
He denied having used any drug and
said that the young woman had ar
ranged with him to go driving Tuesday
night
Last night Miss Swingle was taken
| to the Lackawanna hospital. Her
condition at IL O'Clock was reported
as being very low, but the doctors are
confident, nevertheless, of her recov-

Luzon in the Philippines and were or
dered to proceed to China. According
to the press reports the regiments
have been badly beaten by the Boxers.
These young men were both members
of Company II OF the local Ninth regi-
ment-Gibbons in the capacity of lieu
tenant and Mcnamara as a private.
Gibbons was a member of Company
II for several years and two years ago
while stationed at Chicamauga Park,
Georgia, vacancy occurred in the Of

nous choice of the company for the
office. After the Ninth Pennsylvania
was mustered out of the government
service he wanted to see more service
in the army and after a few months
enlisted in the infantry.
Frank Mcnamara answered the call
for volunteers and enlisted in the SER
vice. He and Gibbons enlisted togeth-
er at Scranton. They were sent to
Camp Preside. Cal, where they were
for q short time before sailing for Ma

JURORS VISITED THE SCENE.
Made Some Tests with Trolley Cars
at Duryea.

The jurors sworn by Coroner ]. ].
Roberts to inquire into the cause of
the collision on the Durye" ''ne of the
Scranton Railway company on July s,
which resulted in the death of Motor
man West brook, went to the scene OF
the accident yesterday afternoon and
examined the point at which the col
lision took place.
The company furnished two cars
identical with those that collided and
they were started from opposite di-
rections toward the scene of the wreck,
some of the jurors being on each car
The test was for the purpose of as
certaining at what distance those on
one car could see the other car, Just
before the point where the accident
occurred was reached. 1t was shown
that the distance was between fifty
and sixty feet. There were also some
tests as to the rapidity with which
cars can be stopped at that point.
The jurors will meet again in the
court house this evening at 7.30 O'Clock

AFTER THE HUMORIST.
Police Are on the Trail of the Man
Who Sends in the False
Alarms of Fire.

The local police are hot on the trail
Of the man who sent in the false alarm
from box 22, at Washington avenue
and Spruce street, early Tuesday
morning, and woe betide the offender
II he is captured. The alarm was
turned in about 2.30 o'clock in the
morning, and brought out several of
the central city fire companies. 1t is
the last of a series of false alarms
which have been turned in, and the
patience of fire and police authorities
alike is now about exhausted. After
the alarm was turned in Tuesday
morning and the companies had re-
sponded, only to find themselves
tricked, the patrolman on the Penn
avenue beat found another box open,
the parties who opened it, taking to
their heels on his approach.
There have been a great number of
these false alarms during the year, but
in none of the cases has the offender
been caught in the act, or his identity
discovered afterward. During the win
ter seven or eight false alarms were
turned in, several being sent from
boxes on the hill" Box 2S, at Monroe
avenue and Pine street, was favorite
with the mischief maker, and alarms
We're turned in from the box on Ad-
ans avenue. 1t was exceedingly
troublesome, during the winter time in
particular, on account of the diff
Guilty experienced by the horses in
passing over the icy roads, and in
one instance the false alarm sent in
resulted in the Gripping of fire en-
gine.
OF late all the false alarms have beer
from the central city and generally
are turned in at most uncomfortable
| hour. A $25 fine is the penalty pro.
| Vided for the wrong-doer, and 1t Is
now thought that some reward should
| be offered anyone informing on the
man with the peculiar sense of humor
as this would make him a trihe careful
as to frequency in indulging in his
pastime.
Conjecture as to who sends in the
alarms is general, and the same party
| is thought to be responsible for all o.
them. Some declare him TO be a mis-
chievous small boy, while others de
clare that 1t is a jack of larger growth
and the lateness of the hours at which
the alarms have been sent in of lat,
would seem to augur that II is no boys
work. 1t is an exceedingly Difficult

BROTHER AGAINST BROTHER.
Leo Roos Arrested at the Instance
of His Brother, Abe Roos.

Before Alderman Millar, yesterday,
Abe Roos charged his brother, Leo
Roos, with attempting to blow up the
lunch wagon at Penn avenue and Lin
den street, of which Abe is the pro-
prietor. Dynamite Is the explosive
which, It is alleged, Leo intended to
use. Alderman Millar required Leo to
furnish $500 bail on this charge and
5000 on charges of false arrest and
persecution, also preferred by brother
Abe.
1t is charged that the attempt to
blow UP the wagon was made last Sat-
urday morning, but was frustrated by
Bert Holtham, who is employed in the
lunch wagon. At the hearing yester-
day Leo denied with great emphasis
that he had made any attempt to blow
up his brothers wagon.
The charges of false arrest and per-
secution grow out of the arrest Of Abe
before Alderman Kelly, at the instance
Of Leo, who charged his brother with
the theft of certain articles of wearing
apparel. Abe alleges that this was a
trumped-up charge.
