FROM MINER TO OPERATOR.
Phil Penna Tells How He Came to
own n Coal Mine.

Phil Penna, formerly president of the
United Mine Workers, and now a coal oper-
ator at Linton, while at the Denison told
of the way he became transformed from a
miner to an operator. 1T was purely an
accident" said he. while L was president
of the miners one of my relatives .ook it
into his head that he could sink a hole and
do some mining on his own account. He
leased some land with money he had saved
as a miner, and formed a partnership with
two other miners to put the plan into OPP
GRAFTON. The scheme was that one of the
men was to continue at work in the mines,
earning a living for the families of the two
who dug the hole for the new mine. Be
fore anything could be done with this plan,
however, the operators bought OFF, the
miner, with the intention of making 1t i'm
possible for the other two to do any work.
sink the hole alone"
In this extremity the relative came to
Mr.. Penna and told him of the plan and
Mr.. Penna advised him not to try it. Find
ing him resolved to do it, Mr.. Penna took
$500 he had saved from his salary and
handed it to his relative, telling him that
If he needed any more he would let him
have ii If he could. With this money and
some more the men set to work Some
time afterward Mr.. Penna's relative came
and said the ''other man" wanted to sell
out, and could be bought for $500. Mr..
Penna loanef him the money, which. to-
gether with what he had previously loaned
at different times, made him his relative S
creditor to the extent of $500. AT last the
coal was ready to work. and the relative
came to Mr. Penna and told him that as he
considered that the financial aid afforded
was equal to the labor performed, he would
give Mr. Penna a half interest in the
mine or pay back the money as he could

the load easier to bear, took the half inter-
est, and Mr.. Boyle, rich operator, who
was chairman of the joint convention re-

They are not like men in other lines OF
business. Even when they know a new op-
orator intends to cut into their business
they will not try to down him. They sim

not to cut under those figures. If he keeps
faith with them. he has friends for life

The train records of the fifteen lines CEN

were received and forwarded at Indianap-
oils 1855 cars. 91,6O1 being loaded. In the
corresponding month of 1899 the number

1896. SO.1S3; 1895, 1882 II will be noticed
that 42f1 fewer loaded cars were handled
in January this year at this point than in
1899. but 1t should be borne in mind that
last year grain was being carried at ex-
tremely low rates and moving heavily,
while this year rates on all classes OF
freight through January were strictly ad-
hered to, If reports are true. AT any rate,
the decrease wholly due to the falling
off in shipments Of grain. as with all other
commodity freights the tonnage was
heavier than in any January in the his

Of loading cars at present with the Big

so improved that at least per cent. great

ago Many of the new cars which are
marked 60,OO0 pounds capacity are loaded

largest ever known. During the month
one or more carloads of horses for export

owing to favorable weather, was heavy

BANKRUPTCY PETITIONS.
Judge Baker Makes Ruling In the
Case of q Married Woman.

Judge Baker, of the Federal Court, yes
terday made ruling in the case OF Sarah
I. Kabaker, of Indianapolis, who was adj
judged to be bankrupt and claimed the
amount of property in her schedule allowed
her under the exemption laws. She had
clothing store which the receiver sold with
out making any provision for her set-off of
$500, alleging that he had not done so for
the reason that she claimed in addition to
her exemption her clothing and jewelry
The receiver insisted that all of the cloth
ing and jewelry should be included in the
5000. Judge Baker sustained the referee in
his ruling on the ground that the exemp-
ton for debts contracted by a married
woman is the same-$600-as that allowed
to householders. but is allowed to a mar
ried woman whether she is a householder
or not. aoif
Judge Baker also made a ruling in the
case of John M. Freeman, OF Irvington, a
bankrupt. Some of his creditors filed OBJ
jections to his charge in bankruptcy and al
legged that he was the equitable owner, with
his wife, of 200 acres of land which he failed
to list In his petition in bankruptcy An
other reason alleged was that he failed to
keep books of his business with intent to
fIaudulently conceal his true financial con-
dition. Judge Baker overruled both of the
objections and granted the discharge.

HIS TEAR DUCT CLOSED
AND HIS NOSE BROKEN IN A STREET
RAILWAY ACCIDENT.
william II. Rhoan's SHIT for Dam
ages-Petiti0ns i'm Bankruptcy
other Court Cases.

Two complaints containing allegations of
an unusual character were filed in the SUI
perior Court yesterday against the Indian
apolis Street-railway Company. Both suits
are to recover damages for personal in
juries. One of the plaintiffs is William
II. Rhoan. Last summer he was employed
by Robert King, a sewer contractor. who
was doing some work on North Illinois
street. An excavation had been made very
close to the street car track and on July
II Kings men were at work.
The plaintiff was at work alongside the
track when a car approached at a rapid
rate of speed. according to his complaint.
He says there was pick lying across one
of the rails and that when the car struck
the pick it knocked the implement aside
in such way that it struck board and
this board struck the plaintiff in the face.
He said his nose was broken, which caused
the left nostril to close and as a result of
the accident the right tear duct was par
TALLY closed. The plaintiff demands dam
ages in the sum of $1,000. He charges that
the company ran it's cars rapidly while
the men were at work in this sewer that
there was danger of the vibrations from
the motion of the car causing the sewer
walls to fall in. He says that sometimes a
car would come along at SO rapid rate of
speed that the workmen would place ties
across the track as a means of protection
The motorn:an would, of course, see the
obstruction and stop the car
Charles l.. kipplinger. who is also suing
the street car company, says he was a
passenger on a College-avenue car on Jan.
6. last Unfortunately he chose a seat in
the front end of the car. When he ten
dered the conductor his fare the officer
attempted to ring up" and in so doing the
register was displaced in some way and
fell. striking the piaintif on the head. 1t
is averred that the register weighed fif-
teen pounds and fell with such force that
the plaintiff became blind and insensible
for time. He says he is permanently in
Jured and demands damages in the sum of
IS, 600.
Suit against the street-railway company
was also brought yesterday by James Han
ia, who demands $500 account of per-
sonal injuries. In November, 1898, he was
driving on South Delaware street and his
wagon was struck by a car. The vehicle
was damaged, his horse was injured and
he was hurt himself.
