are not sent in and they are obliged
to spend considerable time in Jail be-
cause of the neglect to send in tran
scripts at the proper time. \ number
of prosecutors called at the district at
torney's once today and wished their
cases heard, and upon investigation it
was found that the transcripts hal
not been sent in.
"A great majority of the aldermen
and justices of the peace send in their
transcripts previous to the convening
of the grand jury, but there are some
who wait until the last moment. The
delaying in filing transcripts makes it
annoying to the prosecutors, their wit
nesses and the district attorney and
adds considerable cost to the county,
because prosecutors frequently come
with their witnesses early in the week
and find upon their arrival that thel:
cases have not been turned into court,
which necesstates their making a Sec
ond trip.

Grand Jury Begins Work.

The grand jury reassembled yester-
day morning with the determination
of making up for the time lost by the
observance of the holiday, but they
were baked in their good intentions
by the absence of transcripts in cases
where witnesses were at hand and the
absence of witnesses In cases that
were ready to be heard.
Concerning this failure of aldermen
men and justices in promptly forward
ing their transcripts. District Attor-
ney Jones said:
aldermen and justices of the peace
should send In their transcripts as
soon as possible, especially where de-
PENDANTS are in Jail awaiting the ac-
tion Of the grand jury. 1t sometimes
happens where defendants are in jail
awaiting the action Of the grand jury
upon their cases that the transcripts

Once more the famous Russell coal
tract is occupying the attention of the
court. This time it figures in the
case of Thomas Davis against the
suit brought to recover royalties on
one-fourth interest in the coal and
which came up for hearing yesterday
before Judge c. b. Savidge, of Nor
thumberland, who is presiding in place
of Judge Gunster.
The tract in question covers 400
acres, mostly situated in Scott town.
ship. Joseph Davenport secured title
from the warrantee owners. a man
named Weaver, and transferred it to
A. b. Russell who In turn leased it
to Mr.. Davis. DR.. H. c. Comegys and
Williams & Mover.
In 1891 and the two years following
Mr.. Davis made various tests on the
land, but never did any mining further
than to remove four tons of coal from
drift which Davenport had been
working to keep himself and a few
neighbors supplied with coal.
1t developed shortly after this that
the land was extremely valuable and
Mr.. Davis had to bring an action in
ejectment to establish his lease claim.
The case was tried here three times
and twice in the supreme court, Mr..
Davis finally winning out.
Mr.. Davis co-lessees disposed of
their rights to the Lackawarina Coal
company and the latter began mining
on the tract. When Mr.. Davis made
demand for one-fourth of the royal
Ties he met with the answer that his
lease had expired by reason of his
failure to live up to it's terms, espe-
cially the one stipulating that so much
coal should be mined annually. To
this Mr.. Davis replied that he at
tempted to operate the tract. but was
prevented by Mr.. Russell, and that he
offered to pay the accrued royalties
several times. but on each occasion
was informed by Mr.. Russell that
there were no royalties owing from
him.
One of the allegations made by Mr..
Davis In support Of his contention that
Russell prevented him from entering
INTO possession Of the tract is that
when he went on the tract on a pros
pecting tour In 1898 he was fired at

Delaware and Hudson Excepts.

Exceptions to the report of the view
ers in the matter of opening Wyoming
avenue, between Olive and Ash streeIs,
were filed yesterday by the Delaware
and Hudson Canal company, through
their attorneys, Welles & TOrrey.
Exception is made generally on the
ground that the city has no right 10
condemn and seize the ground covered
by their tracks and especially exc.p-
tion is taken to the item Removal Of
the D. & H. c. Company tracks, esti-
mated cost, $29.72," on the same
ground.
1t is denied that any agreement re-
garding the moving of the tracks was
ever entered into between the company
and the city, as is claimed there was
by the last paragraph of the viewers
report, and the eXceptants then go on
to state as n matter OF record its
disposition, often expressed to the city
officials, to consent to the opening of
wyoming avenue, as proposed, if the
rights and franchises of the eXceptant
and its facilities for discharging it's du-
ties as a public carrier can be fully
protected. They are not so protected
by the provisions of this report for
the reason that in order to permit a
removal Of eXceptants tracks so as to
| allow the opening of the said street
and at the same time to give to the
exceptant sufficient land to permit the
! relocation of the tracks on substan-
TALLY the same curves as at present, it
Is necessary that the land of the Dick
son Manufacturing company, referred
to in the report of the viewers, should
be actually transferred to the excep-
tant, and other lands not provided for
at all in the report, and which it Is
understood belong partially to the
Lackawanna Iron and Coal company
and partly to NJ. l.. and w. G.. Jones,
should be procured by the city and
transferred to the eXceptant"

compact that the shops should be open
