Before Judge Kelly yesterday in the
main court room the closing arguments
were made in the trespass case of T..
]. Wolfgang against the Scranton Rail-
way company. At 1916 the case was
given to the jury and at o'clock last
night it agreed and sealed its verdict.
After court opened in the morning Ma
jor Everett Warren, on behalf of the
street railway company, asked for
binding instructions to the jury, on
the ground that Weiss. who drove
Wolfgang's wagon at the time of the
accident. was guilty of contributory
negligence. Judge Kelly decided to al
low the case to go to the jury, reserv-
ing his decision on the point involved.
After the court opened in No. the
case of j. ID. Stocker against the bor-
ough of Jermyn was resumed The
evidence closed Wednesday afternoon
and yesterday morning Attorney II. w.
Aiulhoiland, of counsel for the borough.
presented five law points to Judge
Searlc. which he afterwards argued.
The substance of these points was that
Stocker could not recover any damage
done to his property prior to Oct. "A,
1892, which was six years prior to the
nor for damages done in 1895 by the
grading of the street by ordinance Of
the borough council, for the reason that
a board of viewers should have been
appointed TO fix the sum of the dam
ages and benefits. These points were
affirmed by the court, which left little

Governor Lind's Veto of Miller Bill by
Court Decision.
Reform Press Bureau,

Reform Press Bureau,
St. Paul, Feb. S, 1000.
The most important state political
event of the week-and most impor-
tant one-has been the decision in the
Ramsey county district court, at the
hands OF Judge Bum, recognized as
one of the ablest jurists in the state, OF
the celebrated coal rate case, in which,
through the railway and warehouse
commission of the state, Governor
Lind has been for year endeavoring
to secure just and equitable rate on
coal for the people OF the southwestern
part OF the state, from Duluth The
fact that the commission ordered a re-
duction of the rate from Sass to $1o5
per ton, from Duluth to New Ulm, is
widely known, as we'll as that the rail-
way companies resisted, taking the case
to the district court.
The court finds for the state i'll two
points:
First, that the railway commission,
under the law, has power to compel
railroads to establish joint tariffs when
roads are so related as the St. Paul and
Duluth and Minneapolis and St.Louis,
in the case in point.
Second, that it had the power to es-
tablish reasonable rates for such SER
vice, and that the joint rate in question
was unreasonable and exorhitant, being
higher than the wheat rate.
The point of interest, aside from the
removal of the injustice under which
the people of this section have long suf
cred, is the application of the Mile,
,ill, which Governor Lind vetoed dur
ng the last session. The manner il
which Governor Lind's judgment in tn

Mineral and Metal Statistics.

The Engineering and Mining Journal
Of today will publish the full tables Of
mineral and metal production of the
United States in 1899, as prepared for
the Mineral Industry, Volume VIII.
This production, valued at the mines
or furnaces, amounted to $1,211, 361 ,S61,
the largest amount on record for the
United States or any other country
Deducting certain necessary duplica-
tions, the net value of the mineral pro-
duction in 1899 was 81, ,7S0,S $50, against
$799, SIS, ,O33 in 1898. showing an increase
last year of $319, ,262, 797, or 1913 per cent.
This great amount came partly from
the increase in quantities and partly
from general advances in values. The
United States last year was the great
est producer of coal, salt, iron, copper,
silver and lead in the world; also of
many of the less important metals and
minerals.
The extent of our production is shown
by the figures, which include 252, ,115,-
1887 short tons of coal, 13,400,735 long
tons of pig iron, Isl, 1,319,O91 pounds of
copper, 217,0S5 tons of lead, 129,675 tons
of zinc, 57,126,S34 ounces of silver, and
$70,09s, ,021 in gold.

Extensive improvements are being
made at the Pancoast mine at Throop.
At present the main shaft and air-shatt
run down to the Clark vein, 42O rect
from the surface, but sinkers are now
engaged in driving both shafts down to
the lower Dunmore vein, which is go
feet below ground,
The sinking is done at night, so as
not to interfere with the regular opera
tions at the mine, and compressed air
is used for driving the drills, an up-to-
date air-compressing plant having been
installed in the engine room Of the col
liery.
To make provisions for supplying air
to the three new veins that will be
opened up by the deepening of the
shaft, a monster thirty-five-foot fan Is
to be installed. The pit for the fan,
made from solid concrete, and the
stone bed for the engine that will drive
the fan are already in place. The fan
will be the largest in the anthracite
coal fields north OF Wilkes-Barre. A
twenty-foot fan is now in use at the
mine. The improvements are being
made under the direction OF Superin-
tendent c. d. Sanderson.
