TROUBLE AT THE DODGE HAS
BEEN ADJUSTED.
Difficulty at the Marvine Has Also
Been Adjusted-Work on the
New Spike Mill

The trouble at the Dodge mine has
been adjusted and work was resumed
at the coliiery yesterday. The matter
wasreported to Superintendent Loomis
by District superintendent Evans, and
he was instructed to settle the existing
difficulty without delay.
The thoughtlessness of some drivers,
MIR. Loomis says. in precipitating a
strike and causing hundreds of men
and boys to be thrown out of employ
ment Is serious mistake. and will
nitely at collieries where it occurs
again.
The company is always willing 10
settle any grievances without having
operations suspended. especially when
there is such a demand for coal as at
the present time, and 1t is not neces-
sary for men to quit their work and
lose their time In order to appease the
alleged wrongs of employees who have
been discharged for cause.
This matter should receive the seri-
Gus consideration of every mine worker
in the anthracite region. and be the
means of bringing about some ar
rangements whereby grievances may
he adjusted without the suspension OF
operations.
The men are always at liberty "a
have their troubles settled without re-
sorting to strikes, and the quicker
they can realize this fact the better 1t
will be for all concerned.

new TRIAL FOR ELLMAN.
HIS CASE SET DOWN FOR TRIAL
NEXT TUESDAY.
Judge Purty Decides That He Should
Not Be Convicted on the Insult
cient Testimony Of Herring.

Judge George Purdy handed down
his opinion granting a new trial in the
case OF Jacob Gilman, who was con-
Victed Wednesday of subornatiou or
perjury. Gilman will be tried again
next Tuesday. The opinion OF Judge
Purdy follows:
The principal reason ulged as groLnd Tor a
new tidal Is want OF sufficient Evidence to sus'
tSin verdict against the defendant.
In prosecutions for perjury II is urqucstionably
the rule that to sustain the charge there must
DC two witnesses 10 prove the islSity D! the mat
ter sworn 10 by the defendant, or one witness
and strong colroboIstivc Grcunstintial evidence,
The reason stated by the Authorities briuc;
that il there is but witness as 10 the falsit :
Of ihc oath, II is but oath against oath and ths
jury should not be permitted to weigh nnc
against the other. Counsel for the defendant
contend that in prosecutions ior subonatcn e
perjury, the came rule should apply. and cite
~ support of this contention Whartnn'a CIiml'
nal Law People ,s. Exams, 40 Y. Y. !, and som,
other authorities, While the counsel for the cNu.
nonwealth contend that in this prosecution thc
solicitation or subornati0n may be shown by
single witness and cite Conn. W. douglas.

But what reason is there for this relaxation O
