PITTSBURGH, Pa, April 26.-
Edward Sherwood, young leader in
the 1881 coal strike, was released
today from the Blawnox Work
house, after serving 30 months of
a three to six years sentence for
his participation in the strike.
The Pittsburgh district of the In
ternational Labor Defense applied
a week ago for parole, the appli-
cation being approved yesterday
and his release ordered for today.
Sherwood is the last of a score of
miners, including Tom Meyers

with the Connecticut senator's, although
one was Democrat, and the New Jer.
sey senators.
The Pennsylvania senator's did not
vote against the treaty because they
were Republicans, but because Of the
port Of Philadelphia and the railroads
through that state. The same with the
Delaware senator's. Maryland. with
one Democrat and one Republican, vot-
ed against the treaty. So did Virginia.

senators both feared the effect Of the

$2,0DO,0)O SPENT
IN MONTGOMERY
County Building in 1884 Is
S706,265 Above Figures
for Previous Year.
BY JACK ALLEN.
Stan Correspondent OF The Star.

ROCKVILLE, Md, December 29.-
One OF the most intensive campaigns
! Of building activity in Montgomery
| County's history was carried on by
speculative and individual real estate
developers in 1884 and out Of the maze
of operations during the IL months
arose an impressive array of resi-
denceS, commercial establishments
and other structures, representing an
outlay Of nearly s2.00O,000.
An unprecedented program Of pub
lie building was conducted by the
county government, with the 15-point
school schedule and the combination
office, liquor dispensary and ware
house structure at Silver Spring in
flating Montgomery's construction to-
tai by an additional s880,00O.
Figures compiled today disclosed
that development work waged by real
estate concerns and individual home
owners aggregated $1,o90,0l5. repre-
senting an increase of s706,265 over
the 1888 total Of 81 l,283, ,750.
Short Of 1872 Mark.
The county's total for the current
year fell just short of its outstanding
construction attainments of 1881 and
1882 when expenditures for private
! building proposed reached the high
marks OF s2.5Oo,0o0 and s2,o65,53s,
respectively.
A major share Of credit for the
increase recorded over the 1888 fig
ure during the past year is attributed
to the determined efforts of county
officials to slash general property
taxes, as reflected in the reduction of
the county levy from $1.35 to 90 cents
on the $l00 assessment during the
past two fiscal years.
The eastern and western suburban
districts. unlike 1888. when the latter
area surpassed the former by s262, 900,
waged close battle in building ac-
complishments during 1884. The sum
OF 1881 ,725 was spent in the western
sector, while s899,015 was expended
in the eastern district, including the
incorporated towns of Kensington and
Takoma Park.
Confined to Small Homes.
SOiioCl uSOlOli WOlk III IIlC luI al
areas Of the county lying in the vi
cinity of Rockville and in the upper
reaches Of Montgomery amounted to
$50 PTS. Records of the Al permits
issued in the rural regions, ac-
cording to County Auditor Alexander
Hancock, showed that operations
there were confined In the main to
the building Of small homes and other
low-priced structures, with the prin-
cipal item being $4,000 home.
The suburban district figures re-
vealed that the eastern district
recorded an increase of s449,015 over
its 1888 building expenditures and
the western district an increase of
$269,725 for the same period, while
the rural total was q decrease of
$32, ATS from the 1888 mark.
The two largest developments of
the year were both carried out in the
eastern area. They were the SAC, 900
dormitory and chapel OF the Xaverian
Brothers College, at Avanell, and the
$4,000 remodeling and enlarging of
