and is to be divided among five chill
dren. w. |. is acting in the capacity
OF administrator without bond, and it
IS not known what shape he has the
estate in. 1t is said that he will either
have to relinquish the administrators
ship or secure the estate against loss.
His father was the founder and larg-
est stockholder in the Mineral City

$4,000, 900 coal DEAL
For 100000 Acres Along the Line
Of the Wabash.

Connellsville, Pa, May 26.-A deal
will be closed tomorrow whereby j.
" Thompson, the Uniontown million
aire coal dealer, will take up 100000
acres of the Greene county coal along
the proposed route Of the new Wabash
railroad. The selling price averages
$125 per acre, the whole aggregating
S25, 100000.
While Thompson is the prime mover
in the great sale, 1t is generally un-
Gerstood that he is working with Geo.
j. Gould of New York. For more than
year past agents have been optioning
the coal. Some of the first blocks we're
purchased for as low as $25 an acre,
although some has recently been fig
ured at as high as $175. Leading coal
men here say 1t is the elimination of
Goulds policy of corraling all of the
valuable coal lands along the Wabash
route in Greene county, thus cutting
off all competition and insuring an i'm
mense tonnage for the new road.

A STATE OF SIEGE
EXISTS At WARSAW
THE TROOPS ARE ACTING AS Po.
lIcEMEN.
Riots in Jewish Quarters Have Got
Beyond the Control of the
Police.

Warsaw, May PA temporary state
of siege was proclaimed by the gov
crnor last night. Today the troops are
the policemen of Warsaw. The fire.
quent outbreaks and riots in the Jew
isb quarters were getting beyond the
police, and the proclamation was is
sued at guard mount in the governors
castle last night.
Frequent fights and rloting occurred
in the Jewish quarters yesterday, and
it is not believed that the proclama-
tion will have the quieting effect that
is sought, but WILL on the other hand,
lncite the Jew baiters to increased
valor and result in more disastrous
and bloody fighting.

interests OF the CITY,
Following Mr.. Justices speech, VIM.
4. Tiden, secretary of the committee
of 20, read several letters from promi-
nent citizens who had been invited to
attend but who could not be present.
The first cf these letters was from
Mayor Weaver The executive said he
was too busy to be present, but an
pounced his purpose to stand with the
people in their demand, ana expressed
his belief that with the people stand
ing unitedly together the cause of
right would win. This letter was APP
plauded and cheers were given for
Mayor Weaver.
Frank M. Ritter, former director of
public safety, was the first speaker. He
confined himself largely to eulogy of
Mayor Weaver. He also went into an
argument to show that the advertise
ment for bids for the lease of the gas
plant and the bid of the U. G.. I. were
not made in accordance with the law.
Charles Emory Smith, former post
master-general, electrified the crowd
Ly speech in which he attacked the
gas steal" in vigorous terms. He
said, in part: This expression of the
sentiment of the people as expressed in
the majestic voice OF Philadelphia. is
full of inspiration. Thank God, we
bleathe the air of freedom again
Thank Cod we have an honest, fear
less mayor. Thank God, we have a
new, disenthraled, regenerated Phila-
dclphia. Around us the battlements of
ring power are tottering and trem-
bling. We have been waiting for a
Moses, and thank God, our Moses has
come. Today we stand on the heights
and can see the promised land"
81 deny the right of the plunderers
who are to gag and stife the city to
speak in the name of our party. Does
any one doubt where the sainted Nc
l<inley would stand if he were, alive
and a citizen of Philadelphia? Does
anyone doubt where Theodore Roose-
welt would stand on this question, if
he were resident of Philadelphia?
Where but on the side of right and
honesty, the black flag of piracy is not
the flag of Republicanism, the flag of
Mckinley, the flag of Roosevelt"
Mr.. Smith recalled how, in 1887, the
citizens had arisen and forced mem
bers Of the legislature to ratify the
constitution, when it was submitted
for the approval of the colony, and ad-
Ivised the citizens OF today that if nee
essary they should ''apply the reserved
power of'a free people.H9"
AT the conclusion of his speech, Mr..
Smith read message which had been
received at the hall. 1t was addressed
to the chairman of the town meeting
and reported that committee of $50
citizens had called on ]. F. L. Morris,
member of the common council. for the

right, and that after hearing their de-
mands he had promised to vote to sus-
tain the mayors veto. This announce
ment was cheered to the echo. D.,

AROUSED OVER THE Gas STEAL
Immense Mass Meeting of Philadelphia Citizens
to Protest Against the Extention of Lease.

Philadelphia, Pa, May 26.-That
Philadelphia is really aroused over the
question of the proposed lease of the
municipal gas plant to the United Gas
Improvement Co. was we'll shown by
the immense turning out of the citi-
zens at the mass meeting tonight to
otest against the extension of the
lease for rs years.
The Academy Of Music, in which the
meeting was held, was packed to the
doors and hundreds were turned away.
Enthusiasm, too, was at fever heat,
nouncing the steal" were cheered
wildly. The fight just at present is di-
rected toward the effort 10 convince
members of the commission and select
council that the bill providing for the
extension of the lease should not be
rassed over the veto of Mayor Weaver.
The mayor breaking his relations with
the organization which has so long
dominated the affairs of Philadelphia,
vetoed the measure. The bill will come
the effort will be made to pass 1t over
the mayors veto. To 90 this it will
require a three-ffths vote of both the
select and common councils. This
means vote of 25 in the select council
and 81 in the common council. Judg-
ing by past experiences. the machine
should be able to do this. The people
realize this, and they know that only
such a demonstration as Will show the
councilmen that public indignation has
ical future is endangered if they dare
to vote with the U. G. l., can prevent
the passage of the measure.
There was a demonstration when
the speakers and members of the COM
mittee of 70 entered. AS the speakers
fled in across the stage the crowd
arose, cheering wildly Flags had been
distributed to the audience, and these
were waved wildly. In moment the
orchestra began to play THE Star
Spangled Banner" and the people .S2e
the chorus in unison, waving their
flags in time to the music. p
Francis B. Reeves, chairman of the
committee of 70, called the meeting to
order. He compared the present situ-
alton to the time of 1776. He then
presented William G. Justice as per-
manent chairman.
In his address Mr.. Justice also re-
ferred to the spirit of 70" He re-
terred to the mayor in this connec-
ton. Mayor Weaver" he declared

ity Of congress to order such an inves-
tigation as the one desired. Such in
vestigations will have to be carried on
independently, 1t is said, by the states
