MIb8 Emily Lee, of Scranton, who was convicted In the Lackawanna county criminal court last week of murder In the second degree for having killed Mrs. Weldon. another cdlored young woman, has a long term in the penitentiary ahead of her. The convicted prisoner was taken into court this morning to receive her sentence, and Judge Edwards gave her the maximum penalty of the law for second degree murder, 20 years imprisonment In the penitentiary. It was announced by the attorneys for Miss Lee. as soon as the verdict of the Jury was announced, that they would move for an arrest, of judgment, but they made no such move this morning. They came to the conclusion that they made the best of a hard ease and that they would let the taw take Its course without seeking a new trial, which might easily result more seriously for the prisoner. The opinion of the case held by Judge Edwards was furnished by his action in giving the prisoner the extreme penalty of the law. When sentence, was pronounced, the prisoner held her head high and gave 110 sign of emotion. The same stolid bearing that has characterized her entire course through the tri I was maintained when the sentence .le court was pronounced.

Cosgrove, of Duryea, Acquitted of Misdameanor. De Prinio. "As soon as I get my freedom 1 will get revenge on Gulseppe Petto," are words on which the New York police base a theory of the murderer of Luciano Parrino. The words were spoken in the hearing of the authorities some time ago by an Italian prisoner In New York, named Do Prlmo, who was serving a term, and referred to Parrino, who was In New York known by the name of Petto. In New York Petto bore the title "II toro", which means the bull. As was mentioned In the papers at the time of the murder, the dead man had b(fin arrested In connection with the barrel murder mystery in the metropolis. His connection with the crime was that he had a watch and knife that had been the property of the dead man. He was held in prison for several months, but the authorities were unable to find any telling evidence against him. He wan generally reputed by Italians of the city to be the murderer. mediately After tJie Celebration in Each full working day of the year about 720 cubic feet of tine coal dust are drawn from the interior of No. 14 breaker by means of a new machine that was recently Installed. This great amount of dust would, but for this machine, be forced out of the top and openings of the breaker and a great amount of It would lodge in the breaker recesses and would cause delays In the work. With the new system In operation the air of the breaker is comparatively clear and the working conditions much more pleasant than they were under any previous system of ventilation. Scranton 011 Saturday Some of President Mitchell's closc friends In Wilkesbarre have made an effort to induce him to spend a few days In thai city on the occasion of his visit to Scranton to join in tlu) Mitchell day celebration on Saturday. A letter received from Mr. Mitchell by a friend In that city gives out the Information that the mine workers' leader will reach Scranton on Friday afternoon and will return to Indianapolis Immediately after the cclehiation is over. These are busy times at the national headquarters of the mine workers and the demands mado up oi Mr. Mitchell are very exacting, tie has scarcely had time to catch up on the work which accumulated during his extended tour of the anthracite regions. The matter which renuires his hurried return to Indianapolis at tills time is an important tonfcrcmcfc of official of some of the bituminous districts. Jackson Drugged Him. The inference drawn from this statement was that competition by other companies, particularly in the industrial field, had compelled the Metropolitan Life to give dividends, even though it was not a mutual company and there was nothing in its insurance contracts compelling it to do so. He distinctly remembers visiting Greenwich and Sachem Head, Conn. He said that on one occasion Jackson left the boat during the night and went into Greenwich and, returning late at night, had with him a dress suit case which was evidently heavily laden. He made another trip alone and returned with a new shotgun. Steiffel says he is innocent, but says he believes that whenever Jackson left the Dorado at night he first drugged him (Steiffel), for when he would awake mornings he would feel "groggy" and would not feel right until about noon. 0 Alderman Pollock Couriered That Evidence Was Not Siifliclent lp Hold lllm—County Detective Jones Wuh Prosecutor In Case. Chief of Police Lawrence Cosgrove, of Duryea, has been declared not guilty of the charge of misdemeanor in office. Alderman Pollock, of Wllkosbarre, before whom a hearing on the charge was held about ten days ago, gave a decision yesterday afternoon in which he declared there was no evidence to sustain the contention of the prosecutor and discharged the chief. . . He Needed the Money. With his great body, clean cut nnd smooth shaven face and long and rippling iron gray locks which touched his shoulders, Mr. Hegenian made an Impressive appearance on the witness stand. His excuse for his own V/2 per cent loan was that be needed the money and had tviwn it aftefciif had conferred willi one of tlre ftieinIters of his finance committee about it. The collateral he had put up to secure the loan, he insisted, was gilt edged. ' The new machine was made and installed by B. F. Sturdevant, of Boston. It is run by means of a large suction fan, placed closo to the head of a galvanized iron pipe which extends from a brick enclosure almost to the top of the breaker. This pipe is the conductor, the dust being propelled through it by the air current created by the fan. The brick enclosure on the. ground has dimensions of 12x15 feet and Is several feet high. Opening into it at the top is the gal-v vanized pipe, which runs along the outside of the breaker. At different points branch pipes extend' from this main dust conductor to the dusty parts of the breaker, such as -the screens. Altogether there are about 50 of these pipes and they vary in size from 12 to 24 inches in diameter. Ths openings of these pipes are placed so as to be in the region of the greatest dust. Steiffel was with Jackson on the Dorado from Sept. 6 until last Friday, when he left tlie sloop at Rocky Point. He admits that he was the man picked up In Newport Saturday night and later released, although he was found aboard a catboat later identified as the property of a Mr. Burlingaine of the Edgewood Vaclit club and named the Bessie. The chief was arrested on a warrant sworn out by County Detective Jones, acting for the district attorney. The chief was charged with larceny, conspiracy to defraud and misdemeanor in ofHcc. At the hearing before the alderman the defendant was discharged on the first two charges, and the alderman took the third case under consideration. De Prlmo was in Jail when the crime was committed. He was a brother-in-law of the victim of the barrel mystery, and when Parrlno was released from prison swore he would be avenged. De Prlmo was given his liberty only two weeks ago and it is thought that he came to this locality and carried out his threat, at least that Is the opinion of Detective Petroslno, of the New York police force, one of the best known criminal hunters in the country.

THE MYSTERY SOLVED i, 1906 He satisfied the Newport authorities that he had not been aboard the Dorado on Saturday afternoon, and they let him go. Afterward they wished, when they found that the Bessie had been stolen, that they had held him awhile longer. The prosecution of Oosgrove grew out of the arrest of a Jewish peddler In Duryea. The latter claimed the chief had taken a sum of money from him and refused to return It. The story of the. chief was that ho had used the money to board the horse of the prisoner. The peddler was represented by Attorney M. H. Mc- Aniff, and his case was brought before the district attorney, who directed the county detective to make the arrests.

The fan that creates the suction is ten feet in diameter and is run with great velocity. When the dust is In the pipes it is drawn toward the large pipe at a spend estimated to be a mile a minute. These pipes— "suckers" would not seem an inappropriate name—draw In nearly all the dust created within a considerable radius of where they are located. The dust, when it enters the large pipe is sent to the bottom where It Is settled by means of constantly dropping streams of water that are sprayed upon It. The receptacle could not be entirely closed, of course, as the draught must be maintained or the fan woilld stop, but the water kills the dust so quickly that a very small amount of It emanates from the opening. The dust is cleaned out of the brick enclosure every night. During the course of a day It reaches a height of four feet and sometimes more. The wet dust is shoveled Into a large pipe through which it is flushed Into old mine workings.
