A slight wreck occurred last Sunday night on the Scranlon Traction Co. line, near Moosic, when a oar, containing several passengers jumped the track and ran Into.a nearby .embankment. It Is remarkable that no one was badly hurt, as nearly every window In the car was broken. The car was coming toward this city between 9 and 10 o'clock, and when It reached a sharp curve near Butler's corner, the speed not having been lowered, It left the rails and dashed into the nearby bank. The concussion was strong enough to throw all the passengers from their seats and also to break the window lights. Several of those In the car received severe bruises and a few cuts, but were not seriously hurt. It D' was several hours before the wreck was clcared UfD.

The news spread like wildfire throughout the city. The revolutionists and active agitators declared loudly that government promises will no longer suffice and that the strike must continue. In fact, an hour after the news became known the revolutionists threw the first bomb In St. Petersburg since the strike began. This occurred near the Polytechnic school, but nobody was killed. I , Charges of Graft in Borough Government. The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, sitting In Pittsburg, handed down a decision affirming the Orphans' court act, which permits judges of the Orphans' court to sit in Common Pleas courts and try equity cases.

BOWED TO SUBJECTS'WILL Iiondon, Oct. 31.—A dispatch to the Evening Standard from Shanghai says that ltear Admiral Train, commander in chief of the American Asiatic squadron, and his sou. Lieutenant Train, have been victims of a savage attack by Chinese outside of Nankin. The American officers were pheasaut shooting when the admiral accidentally shot a Chinese woman, slightly injuring her. Sunbury, Oct. 31.—JCharges of graft made against certain members of the borough council and! alleged agents for the same were made here when a petition was presented to court by Isuac M. Gross, a former member of council, who, in his petition, states that he filed an appeal from the report of the auditors of the borough and that he now comes Into court with his specifications of error, objections and exceptions thereto, alleging that large amountH of money have been illegally expended and paid out by the borough council and the borough treasurer. It is alleged that these moneys have been paid out for labor and material and far the sale of and furnishing of supplies and materials by the members, officers or their agents, contrary to the act of Assembly governfug the same.. The petition further prays the court for a rule to show cause why the alleged guilty parties shall not bo surcharged and ousted from office. Philadelphia., Oct. 31.—United States Senator Penrose has made the following statement in reply to the assertions that he had signed or indorsed a note for $75,000 in the defunct Enterprise' National bank of Allegheny: Count Witte Sends a Message to the Americas People. Rumors of Mutiny. Odessa, Oct. 31.—Persistent rumors art in circulation that the cryws of the vessels composing the Black sea fleet mutinied on arriving at Samsuu, on the coast of Asia Minor, killed Admirals Birilleff and Choukin and sailed back to Sevastopol after hoisting the revolutionary flag. It is impossible to verify the rumors. A semblance of order is glowly being restored. A number of stores have reopened, but additional factories have struck. The governor has issued a proclamation that he will adopt the severest measures to suppress disturbances. THE POWDER TIN ORDER WHOLE TOWN BURNING. "The statement that a note for $75,- 000 signed or Indorsed by me, is C*r al any time was in the Enterprise National bank, or was ever protested, is an absolute malicious falsehood. I never knew anything about the Enterprise National bank; nor did I ever, directly or indirectly, recommend it deposit from the State treasurer. Nor have I ever suggested, recommended or had any relation, direct or Indirect, with any similar State deposit in any bank in Pittaburg or in the county of Allegheny or elsewhere. The effort to connect me with acting improperly with the State deposits has absolutely no foundation to rest on. I have never interfered in these matters and have never attempted to obtain any personal advantage from a State treasurer in connection , with State deposits. The malignant effori to connect me therewith is solely for political campaign purposes." TEXT OF EMPEROR'S PROCLAMATION Hundreds of villager* thereupon surrounded the officers, took awuy their guns, knocked the admiral down iu the mud and held Lieutenant Train as a hostage. Forty American marines landed as a rescue party were attacked by a mob of Chinamen, who tried to pitchfork the officers. The marines were obliged to tire twice. The Chinese official# refused to restore the officers' guns and support the villagers.

A great meeting of Finnish workmen expressed sympathy with the Russian struggle for freedom and appointed a committee to frame a programme for the Finnish people.

After two inflammatory speeches the crowd compelled the engine driver to take the engine to the roundhouse.

Va., Oct. 31.—Fire started about 1 o'clock this morning in the Pino Grove hotel from a natural gas exploit on and has destroyed practically the whole town. At two o'clock the buildings that have been destroyed are the Pine Grove hotel, Commercial hotel. Pine Grove bank, Methpdist church, Morgans' business block, seven stores and ten dwellings. Tomorrow, Nov. 1st, will witness whatever action may be taken by the miners of the United Mine Workers' District No. 1 with Reference t0 empty powder tins. It will be recalled that when a convention of the Amalgamated Keg Funds of this district was held In this city a few weeks ago, a report was received from a committee which had interviewed the officials of the powder company with reference to restoring the former price for empty powder tins. This report of the committee was to the effect that the powder company refused to pay more than eight cents Tor empty tins. As a result a resolution was adopted, after considerable discussion, to the effect that the miners of District No. 1 should, on and after Nov. 1st, refuse to sell empty tins to the powdor company, the inference being that they would destroy them. Further, It was decided that the miners should refuse to pufchaee powder contained in any but brand new tins. This latter action, presumably, was taken with a view to preventing the company from using old powder Una. should a .y be ofTered them by ariy miners. The .Mm6 set for the resolution to take effect begins tomorrow, and it will be of Interest to see what the miners will do In regard to the matter. That many of them will carry out the resolution of the keg fund x:onvention is certain, since there were some very radical men among the members of the convention insisting that the powder tins should not be sold for less than 10 cents apiece. It is equally true that some of the miners of the district will not adhere to the convention's resolution, believing that they are not bound by the convention's action. At least one of the keg funds in the Pittston district laid the convention's resolution on the table at its last meeting, which is taken to mean that the members of that particular organization will sell their empty tins &S before. The argument of the men who wish to sell their empty tins is that it Is better to secure eight cents for empty tins than nothing at all. Each colliery uses between 500 and 700 tins of powder a month, and the amount received from the sale of empty tins averages about J50 a month. Whether or not the men generally will adhere to the order to destroy empty tins will probably be seen after tomorrow.Anxiety In Washington. Washington, Oct. 31.—Ureat anxiety was aroused at both the state and navy departments by the press dispatches which said that Rear Admiral Train and iiis son had become involved In a conflict with a Chinese mob near Nankin because of the unfortunate wounding by accident of a Chinese woman while the admiral and his party were hunting. Senator Penrose's denial was* brought out by dispatches from Pittsburg to the effect that "the latest development In the affairs of the looted Enterprise National bank rests in the fact that a record has been found of a protested note signed or Indorsed by Senator Penrose. T. Lee Clark, the suicide cashier, protested it. The note was foV $75,000." Dynamite is being used to try to stop the further progress of the tlamos. Count Witte, Russia's first premier, sent the foregoing message to the American people. He had just arrived from Feterhof, where the emperor mid given two hours before his final approval of a proclamation and a programme which ends the absolutism which had been exercised by him and his Romanoff ancestors for 300 years. The charges have caused considerable excitement and everybody is waiting to hear the answer to the petition, which was ordered by Judge Auten to be Jlled on Monday, November 6. It is reported that .several persons lost their lives In the hotels but In the excitement this cannot be verified. Tore Down Russian Flags. I,odz. Oct. 31.—All business here is suspended. About 130,000 workmen are on strike. No newspapers are published. and many restaurants are closed. Such establishments as opeued were forcibly closed or destroyed by the mob. Several thousand workmen marched through the streets. Rioters tore down Russian flags displayed by order of the police. Officers on the Asiatic station frequently go shooting about this time in the Chinese rice fields. More than once coolies have divided with the wild fowl the doubtful privilege of being the recipient of the bird shot from an American officer's fowling piece. A few dollars has always been sufficient to heal their injured feelings if not their wounds. ALL HALLOWE'EN PARTY WAS HELD * HIS BACK BROKEN, "SCOTTY" MAY DIE ALDERMAN HEARS OF FOREIGN ROW Eureka Club Surprised One of lis Los Angeles, Cal., Oct. 31—The back of Walter Scott, "Bcotty" of Death Valley, was broken yesterday while he was making a Wild automobile ride on a bet of $150.

Prosecutors in Malicious Mischief Case The Kureka club, of Parsonage St. and vicinity, held a Hallowe'en celebration last evening with a surprise party on one of* their members, Mrs. Theron Davenport, of parsonage St. The surprise was genuine, as Mrs. Davenport had been given to understand that a gathering was to be held thin evening on another member of the club. She was, therefore, taken entirely off her guard when about 40 masked people invaded her home. After making a remark that the visitors must have made a mistake in the place of meeting, it suddenly dawned qn her that she was the victim of u Joke and she immediately started to make things comfortable. The costumes of the masqueraders were very unique and original and everybody sepmed puzzled as to who was who. One member remarked that he did not know his wife until he received a punch in the ribs from her that set him to thinking and finally resulted In a correst guess as to who was behind the mask. The evening Made Defendant* in Assault and THE GRAND JURY IS IN SESSION On one occasion Captain William Emery, then a young officer, was shooting in Chinese flee fields. According to naval traditions, he accidentally shot a Chinaman, who fell writhing aud moaning to the ground. This excited the naval officer's pity, and to compensate the fellow be handed him fifty Mexican dollars. He went on his way" seeking more game, but the chase had not proceeded far when the wounded cooly appeared, friendly despite his wounds, leading his grandfather and grandmother and seeking to explain to the American naval officer that he might shoot both of them at the rate of fifty Mexican dollars for each.

Alderman Barrett had a compllcat. ed case before him for disposal lust evening. The one oase terminated in two cases, for the defendants had the prosecutors arrested and given a hearing, after they had been held for court. In the first ease, John Skilllnge and his wife had three Polanders arrested on the charge of malicious mischief and assault and battery. Last Saturday night, after Skllllnge and most of his boarders had retired live foreigners came to the house and insisted on coming in. When they found the door locked they forced it and, taking possession of the domicile, sent out for some beer. They were having a hilarious time when SkiTllnge and his wife appeared and ordered them out, following up the command with an attack in which the woman struck some of the merrymakers with a poker. When the men were finally ejfected, instead of going away they secured stones and had some fun throwing them through the window lights of the house. The result was that warrants were issued for them. Four of the .participants were captured and after fhe hearing were held in $600 each for their appearance at court.

There are a large number of bills to consider and the jurors will have an exceptionally but-y week. , The jury was charged by Judge Ilalsoy. who plainly pointed out to them their duties, making special reference to the erection of new bridges and the inspection of public buildings. He informed the jurors that under the act of 1870 the jurors shall hear petitions for the erection of new bridges and that Thursday has been set aside as the date on which such petitions shall be heard. He advised the jurors to consider them carefully and referred to the act as a good one.

A slight wreck occurred last Sunday night on the Scranlon Traction Co. line, near Moosic, when a oar, containing several passengers jumped the track and ran Into.a nearby .embankment. It Is remarkable that no one was badly hurt, as nearly every window In the car was broken. The car was coming toward this city between 9 and 10 o'clock, and when It reached a sharp curve near Butler's corner, the speed not having been lowered, It left the rails and dashed into the nearby bank. The concussion was strong enough to throw all the passengers from their seats and also to break the window lights. Several of those In the car received severe bruises and a few cuts, but were not seriously hurt. It D' was several hours before the wreck was clcared UfD.

The news spread like wildfire throughout the city. The revolutionists and active agitators declared loudly that government promises will no longer suffice and that the strike must continue. In fact, an hour after the news became known the revolutionists threw the first bomb In St. Petersburg since the strike began. This occurred near the Polytechnic school, but nobody was killed.

BOWED TO SUBJECTS'WILL Iiondon, Oct. 31.—A dispatch to the Evening Standard from Shanghai says that ltear Admiral Train, commander in chief of the American Asiatic squadron, and his sou. Lieutenant Train, have been victims of a savage attack by Chinese outside of Nankin. The American officers were pheasaut shooting when the admiral accidentally shot a Chinese woman, slightly injuring her. Sunbury, Oct. 31.—JCharges of graft made against certain members of the borough council and! alleged agents for the same were made here when a petition was presented to court by Isuac M. Gross, a former member of council, who, in his petition, states that he filed an appeal from the report of the auditors of the borough and that he now comes Into court with his specifications of error, objections and exceptions thereto, alleging that large amountH of money have been illegally expended and paid out by the borough council and the borough treasurer. It is alleged that these moneys have been paid out for labor and material and far the sale of and furnishing of supplies and materials by the members, officers or their agents, contrary to the act of Assembly governfug the same.. The petition further prays the court for a rule to show cause why the alleged guilty parties shall not bo surcharged and ousted from office. Philadelphia., Oct. 31.—United States Senator Penrose has made the following statement in reply to the assertions that he had signed or indorsed a note for $75,000 in the defunct Enterprise' National bank of Allegheny: Count Witte Sends a Message to the Americas People. Rumors of Mutiny. Odessa, Oct. 31.—Persistent rumors art in circulation that the cryws of the vessels composing the Black sea fleet mutinied on arriving at Samsuu, on the coast of Asia Minor, killed Admirals Birilleff and Choukin and sailed back to Sevastopol after hoisting the revolutionary flag. It is impossible to verify the rumors. A semblance of order is glowly being restored. A number of stores have reopened, but additional factories have struck. The governor has issued a proclamation that he will adopt the severest measures to suppress disturbances. THE POWDER TIN ORDER WHOLE TOWN BURNING. "The statement that a note for $75,- 000 signed or Indorsed by me, is C*r al any time was in the Enterprise National bank, or was ever protested, is an absolute malicious falsehood. I never knew anything about the Enterprise National bank; nor did I ever, directly or indirectly, recommend it deposit from the State treasurer. Nor have I ever suggested, recommended or had any relation, direct or Indirect, with any similar State deposit in any bank in Pittaburg or in the county of Allegheny or elsewhere. The effort to connect me with acting improperly with the State deposits has absolutely no foundation to rest on. I have never interfered in these matters and have never attempted to obtain any personal advantage from a State treasurer in connection , with State deposits. The malignant effori to connect me therewith is solely for political campaign purposes." TEXT OF EMPEROR'S PROCLAMATION Hundreds of villager* thereupon surrounded the officers, took awuy their guns, knocked the admiral down iu the mud and held Lieutenant Train as a hostage. Forty American marines landed as a rescue party were attacked by a mob of Chinamen, who tried to pitchfork the officers. The marines were obliged to tire twice. The Chinese official# refused to restore the officers' guns and support the villagers.

After two inflammatory speeches the crowd compelled the engine driver to take the engine to the roundhouse.

Va., Oct. 31.—Fire started about 1 o'clock this morning in the Pino Grove hotel from a natural gas exploit on and has destroyed practically the whole town. At two o'clock the buildings that have been destroyed are the Pine Grove hotel, Commercial hotel. Pine Grove bank, Methpdist church, Morgans' business block, seven stores and ten dwellings. Tomorrow, Nov. 1st, will witness whatever action may be taken by the miners of the United Mine Workers' District No. 1 with Reference t0 empty powder tins. It will be recalled that when a convention of the Amalgamated Keg Funds of this district was held In this city a few weeks ago, a report was received from a committee which had interviewed the officials of the powder company with reference to restoring the former price for empty powder tins. This report of the committee was to the effect that the powder company refused to pay more than eight cents Tor empty tins. As a result a resolution was adopted, after considerable discussion, to the effect that the miners of District No. 1 should, on and after Nov. 1st, refuse to sell empty tins to the powdor company, the inference being that they would destroy them. Further, It was decided that the miners should refuse to pufchaee powder contained in any but brand new tins. This latter action, presumably, was taken with a view to preventing the company from using old powder Una. should a .y be ofTered them by ariy miners. The .Mm6 set for the resolution to take effect begins tomorrow, and it will be of Interest to see what the miners will do In regard to the matter. That many of them will carry out the resolution of the keg fund x:onvention is certain, since there were some very radical men among the members of the convention insisting that the powder tins should not be sold for less than 10 cents apiece. It is equally true that some of the miners of the district will not adhere to the convention's resolution, believing that they are not bound by the convention's action. At least one of the keg funds in the Pittston district laid the convention's resolution on the table at its last meeting, which is taken to mean that the members of that particular organization will sell their empty tins &S before. The argument of the men who wish to sell their empty tins is that it Is better to secure eight cents for empty tins than nothing at all. Each colliery uses between 500 and 700 tins of powder a month, and the amount received from the sale of empty tins averages about J50 a month. Whether or not the men generally will adhere to the order to destroy empty tins will probably be seen after tomorrow.Anxiety In Washington. Washington, Oct. 31.—Ureat anxiety was aroused at both the state and navy departments by the press dispatches which said that Rear Admiral Train and iiis son had become involved In a conflict with a Chinese mob near Nankin because of the unfortunate wounding by accident of a Chinese woman while the admiral and his party were hunting. Senator Penrose's denial was* brought out by dispatches from Pittsburg to the effect that "the latest development In the affairs of the looted Enterprise National bank rests in the fact that a record has been found of a protested note signed or Indorsed by Senator Penrose. T. Lee Clark, the suicide cashier, protested it. The note was foV $75,000." Dynamite is being used to try to stop the further progress of the tlamos. Count Witte, Russia's first premier, sent the foregoing message to the American people. He had just arrived from Feterhof, where the emperor mid given two hours before his final approval of a proclamation and a programme which ends the absolutism which had been exercised by him and his Romanoff ancestors for 300 years. The charges have caused considerable excitement and everybody is waiting to hear the answer to the petition, which was ordered by Judge Auten to be Jlled on Monday, November 6. It is reported that .several persons lost their lives In the hotels but In the excitement this cannot be verified. Tore Down Russian Flags. I,odz. Oct. 31.—All business here is suspended. About 130,000 workmen are on strike. No newspapers are published. and many restaurants are closed. Such establishments as opeued were forcibly closed or destroyed by the mob. Several thousand workmen marched through the streets. Rioters tore down Russian flags displayed by order of the police. Officers on the Asiatic station frequently go shooting about this time in the Chinese rice fields. More than once coolies have divided with the wild fowl the doubtful privilege of being the recipient of the bird shot from an American officer's fowling piece. A few dollars has always been sufficient to heal their injured feelings if not their wounds. ALL HALLOWE'EN PARTY WAS HELD * HIS BACK BROKEN, "SCOTTY" MAY DIE ALDERMAN HEARS OF FOREIGN ROW Eureka Club Surprised One of lis Los Angeles, Cal., Oct. 31—The back of Walter Scott, "Bcotty" of Death Valley, was broken yesterday while he was making a Wild automobile ride on a bet of $150.

Prosecutors in Malicious Mischief Case The Kureka club, of Parsonage St. and vicinity, held a Hallowe'en celebration last evening with a surprise party on one of* their members, Mrs. Theron Davenport, of parsonage St. The surprise was genuine, as Mrs. Davenport had been given to understand that a gathering was to be held thin evening on another member of the club. She was, therefore, taken entirely off her guard when about 40 masked people invaded her home. After making a remark that the visitors must have made a mistake in the place of meeting, it suddenly dawned qn her that she was the victim of u Joke and she immediately started to make things comfortable. The costumes of the masqueraders were very unique and original and everybody sepmed puzzled as to who was who. One member remarked that he did not know his wife until he received a punch in the ribs from her that set him to thinking and finally resulted In a correst guess as to who was behind the mask. The evening Made Defendant* in Assault and THE GRAND JURY IS IN SESSION On one occasion Captain William Emery, then a young officer, was shooting in Chinese flee fields. According to naval traditions, he accidentally shot a Chinaman, who fell writhing aud moaning to the ground. This excited the naval officer's pity, and to compensate the fellow be handed him fifty Mexican dollars. He went on his way" seeking more game, but the chase had not proceeded far when the wounded cooly appeared, friendly despite his wounds, leading his grandfather and grandmother and seeking to explain to the American naval officer that he might shoot both of them at the rate of fifty Mexican dollars for each.

The one oase terminated in two cases, for the defendants had the prosecutors arrested and given a hearing, after they had been held for court. In the first ease, John Skilllnge and his wife had three Polanders arrested on the charge of malicious mischief and assault and battery. Last Saturday night, after Skllllnge and most of his boarders had retired live foreigners came to the house and insisted on coming in. When they found the door locked they forced it and, taking possession of the domicile, sent out for some beer. They were having a hilarious time when SkiTllnge and his wife appeared and ordered them out, following up the command with an attack in which the woman struck some of the merrymakers with a poker. When the men were finally ejfected, instead of going away they secured stones and had some fun throwing them through the window lights of the house. The result was that warrants were issued for them. Four of the .participants were captured and after fhe hearing were held in $600 each for their appearance at court.
