STEPPED IN LAW.
Drifton Corporations Arc Making an Un
snvlable Record ~ Squabblers.

Driftou Corporations Arc Making an Un.
enviable Record as squabbiers.
Scracely week passes without find
ing some ono of the several Drifton cor
porations engaged In legal contest OF
one kind or another.
The number Of suits brought against
them lately by men who cannot obtain
their alleged rights except by appealing
to the local courts Is beginning to at
tract attention, and, regardless OF the
merits Of the cases, the general opinion
is that there is . lack Of something
around the headquarters of the COM
panies, or else tho great firms which
bear the name Of Coke would not be
compelled to produce their officials and
books every week or two In the different
squlres' Offices.
The latest case In which these cor
porations are figuring was tried before
Justice Shovlin Friday evening. Adam
Hildebrant, an Oneida miner, claims
payment for coal mined. The coal is
lying In breast in Oneida colllery, and
the company refuses to allow 1t to be
loaded into cars. Hildebrant values the
coal at over $3.50. He has also made an
additional claim for the sums deducted
from his wages for powder, oil and
other mine supplies, which are sold by
the company without any authority in
their charter to make such sales. The
total amount involved is about $3.50.
The evidence In the case required
several hours time In bringing 1t out
The justice reserved his decision until
Wednesday next.
As this is only one Of several such
cases which have been ventilated lately,
the public is beginning to realize how
small and narrow are the methods and
rules, to say nothing of the men, which
now prevail around the works Of the
Drifton companies.
For over = quarter Of century,
while the late ex-senator directed the
general affairs OF the Coke interests,
there was nothing Of the kind known or
practiced. Disputes between employees
were then settled amiciably, and the
regulations and dignity Of those who
compose the DrIfton firms were not
subjected to tho scorn and ridicule that
follow attempts Of incompetent and
grasping managers to deprive mon of
their just dues.

CANDIDATES
ARE NAMED
Crawford County System
Has Been Tried.
Palmer Nominated for Con-
gress. Drury for Senator
and Lloyd for Clerk Of
the Courts,

The first test OF tho Crawford county
system OF nominating candidates for

publican party Of Luzerne, and the re-
suit of Saturday evenings voting is as
follows:

Judge-George S. Ferris, West Pitts
ton.
District jamin R. Jones,
Warrior Run.
Prothonotary-Brinton jackson, Nan
| ticoke.
Clerk Of Courts-Reese Lloyd, Free
land.
Palmer has plurality Of over 5000
votes for congress, and Reese Lloyd
leads his opponents by over 5000.
Tho contest for the senatorship was
between Drury and Scott and the
formers majority is less than 1000.
Baxter was weaker for district attor-
ney than expected and came in second
nearly 1000 votes behind Jones.
For judge, Ferris leads Nichols by
$500.
Jackson, for prothonotary, has a
plurality Of less than 1000.
In Freeland borough the contest fail
ed to bring out all the party's voters,
but those who remained at home had
their places filed easily, and the total
vote ran up to $50.
The candidates who led here were
Palmer for congress, Drury for senator,
Ferris for judge, Jones for district at
torney, Jackson for prothonotary. Lloyd

so went the county.
Judges were elected at each polling
place to carry the returns to Wilkes
barre. They will meet at 10 a. M.
tomorrow when the vote will be counted
and officially announced.
Outside Of the interest manifested d
In tho fate OF the several candidates,
the system itself attracted many voters
to the polls and very large number of
votes we're cast.
From reports throughout the county,
the new method was given a trial by
many Democrats.

His First Sermon,

Rev. Hugh L. McMenamin delivered
the sermon at the last mass in st. AIMS
church yesterday morning. He spoke
on devotion to tho Blessed Virgin. Al
though this was Father McMenamin's S
first sermon, 1t was remarkably well
delivered. After pointing out the origin
OF devotion to the Mother OF God, its
co-sxistence with Christianity itself,
the reverend speaker alluded to the
futile efforts OF various ages of apostasy
to stamp 1t out.
Father McMenamin has a pleasing
and powerful voice, which could be
heard distinctly throughout the whole
church.

ACTION ON THE CODE.
a Special Meeting of the Bar AsSoci-
alton Called.

ntiOn Called.
At reqsest Of a number OF the members
Of the organization, Chaplin Brown, presi-
dent Of the Washington Bar Association,
yesterday issued a cali for special meet
ing of that body to be held tomorrow at
8 p. m. The purpose Of the meeting is
understood to be to petition the Senate
not 70 take action on TIE new code OF
laws for the government Of the District.
during the present session Of Congress
II was rUmored that the proposed meet
ing vas to be called fer the purpose Of
delaying the confirmation Of the code be-
cause the section providing fer the abOl-
ishing Of the Office Of Register Of Wills
had been stricken out in the Hose The
gentlemen who were instrumental in hav-
ing the meeting called. have. however.
denied that any such motive prompted
their action. Several Of them further
stated that the real cause for the call for
the meeting was to endeavor TO gain more
time for the members Of the association
to consider the code.
Many OF the members Of the bar are
OF the opinion that the code is defective
in many respects. and they believe il
would be much better 10 delay the confir-
nation AT this time than TO let il be
passed by the Senate in its present condi-
tioE. II is contended by many OF the
members that the abolishing OF, or the re-
tention of. the Office OF the Register OF
Wills Is but a matter OF small importance
In connection with the adoption OF a code
o; laws for the government Of the District
Many Of the members OF the association
who have been spoken to on the subject
deny most emphatically that it is their
intention to attempt to defeat the code.
Their aim. they stated. is. II possible. to
delay its adoption until it is more per
feet
