Thrilling. Experience. Yet Satisfiad. George tD. Loomls, formerly a practicing attorney at the Luzerne bar and later a resident of Chicago, died this morning: at fi o'clock at Wllkesbarre hospital, where he had been taken for an operation, Mr. Loomls was a brother of Mrs. Colonel Urquhart, of West Plttston. The deceased was born In Wilkesbarre on May 1, 1859, a son of W. W. lCooml»; who was at one time mayor of Wilkesbarre. After a common school education he attended Syracuse university and, after his graduation from this institution, he took up the study of law in the office of Agib Itlcketts, In Wilkesbarre. He later studied In the office of H. A. Fuller and was admitted to the bar In I8SC. He became active In music circles In Wilkesbarre, and took much Interest In movements to promote the Industrial prosperity of the city. JHe was one time nominated for mayor of the city but was defeated. RECORDS CRITICISED. LEADERS CONFIDENT. BURGLARS GOT MONEY THE CAPITAL QUIET. The Assets and Liabilities Philadelphia is Aroused as Farmer Was Bound and Gagged by Intruders. Demonstration Over Bodies of Riot Victims Forbidden. The fight for the office of district president of the new consolidated district elicited the most Interest, and while the best of feeling prevailed between the two districts, each was desirous of electing its man for the Important office. The names of Joseph P. Evans and Floyd S. Hess were placed In nomination. Evans was the newly elected district president of district No. 2 and Hess'of district No. 3, each having received his commission, and It was but fair that either of the two men should be elected to be the presiding officer of the new district. The convention then proceeded to votW and the ballot resulted In the election of Floyd H. Hess, of Camp 653, Forty Fort. Are Compared. Never Before. "Carbondale, Nov. 6.—Ell Avery, ai farmer living near Ararat Summit, about 20 miles north of hare, had a thrilling experience with a gang of six burglars at an early hour this morning. The burglars entered his home, bound and gagged him and his motherin-law, Mrs. Sartell, and took 1800 In cash which he had concealed beneath his pillow. Mrs. Avery was away from home on a .yislt. St. Petersburg, Nov. ©.—Sunday Happily passed in St. Petersburg without disorders of bloodshed. The Social ■Democrats and revolutionists had planned a mammoth demonstration In connection with the funerals uf those killed in last week's riots, aud It was Intended to form gigantic processions, representing the various industrial organizations in the suburbs, anil flying red flags and bear the bodies of /the "martyrs" in state through the center of the city, these processions uniting at the Kazan cathedral, where the passions of the crowds night be tired by revolutionary orators. , When it became known that (General Trepoff would not permit a big demonstration, threatening disorder, and that the mayor had issued a proclamation saying that the streets were 110 place for the airing of political grievances. the Socialist leaders cliUed oil their plans, declaring that they feared "this* demonstration of the people was marked for slaughter, for which they, were not prepared at present. The peo-' pie will give battle when ready, not when Trepoff wants it." Albany, N. Y., Nov. 0.—Stnte Superintendent of Insurance Hendricks has made public a supplementary report by It. H. Hunter, deputy superintendent of Insurance, and Chief. Examiner Isaac Vanderpoel on the condition of 1-tln.e Equitable Life Assurance Society 6t the United States at the close of busliless on June 30, 1905. Tile report first discusses the real estate of the society and places, the vAlue of its office buildings in various cities at $2fi,366,306, or $4.»»8,(Ui4 less than-the sun} at which tliey are carried. 011 the books of the society. It is explained by the report that this reduction ■ Is made on the basis of the earnings of the buildings, which yield 3 per cent on $26,366,360; New York, Nov. (1.—With the eyes of the country on the metropolis, New York Is proceeding with the work of electing a city administration to preside over Its affairs for four years. At this time tlie outcome of the election is as much In doubt as It was a few weeks ago, when the unexpectedly active canvass of William It. Hearst, the liead of the Municipal Ownership ticket, changed the campaign from one of lethargy to a coutest that has stirred the city in every uook and corner. At the evening sel-vlce In the Methodist church, M. 11, Keeler presented a report of the building fund of the church. He stated that when the new church was dedicated, one year ago, $21,000 were subscribed to pay off the debt 011 the building. Subscribers were -.allowed three years' time In which to pay their subscriptions', and Mr. Keeler reported that during the year Just closed .$12,000 had been paid 011 the subscriptions, or $rD,000 more than the one-third due. This was a most encouraging report, but one feature mentioned by Mr. Keeler was not So encouraging, the report showing that 41 subscribers had not paid anything on their subscriptions during the year. The robbery, which was no doubt one of the moat daring ever perpetrated in this vicinity was the carefully contemplated plan of si* desperate robbers. Seven years ago, Mr. Loomls left Wllkesbarre for Chicago, where he took up his residence. Recently he came to West Plttston and m.ade a ,visit with his sister. Before he started for his home he was stricken with a serious ailment, anil wa» taken to the hospital for an operation. Besides his sister, one brother survives Mr. Lioomls, W. ED. Ijoomls, of Wllkesbarre.Credit for the enlivening of the campaign must also be given to the liepublican candidate, Mr. William M. lying, who has made a good, light. Although his followers are quietly confident, to Judge from the consensus of expressed opinions, the contest lies between Mr. Hearst and Mayor McClellan, .the Democratic candidate for reelection.The other officers electcd were as follows: Vice President—D. L. Williams, of Camp 127, Larksvllle. The Avery house is situated about one mile and a half west of the Erie railroad near Ararat Summit, and about one-fourth of a mile from the residence of Albert Hines, his nearest neighbor. Mr. Avery Is one of Susquehanna county's most prosperous farmers, and his home is a model rural residence. He was In the habit of loaning money to persons on security, and this accounts for his having the large amount in his home. Late Saturday this amount was paid to him by a man to .whom he had loaned it. Secretury—George Mlllheim, Camp 653. Forty Fort. Treasurer—G. G. Phillips, of Camp 326, Plymouth. To the book Vjtjue of real estate the company has acquired under foreclosure the report adds $23,789.07, making the total estimated value of such real estate $4,004,500.23. Of the loans on bonds and mortgage the report says they represent ¥83,721,222.16 and have an average earning of *more than 4'/j per cent, and ."at no period of the society's existence has this clasiC of Investments been In a more satisfactory condition." The funeral will be held Wednesday morning at 10:30 from the residence 3t W. D. 274 South Franklin street, Wllkesbarre. Interment will be made in Hollenback cemetery. Master of Forms and Ceremonies— Mr. Culver, of Bloomingdale. Inspector—Coruy Lamoreaux, of Camp 32'), Luzerne borough. THE SHEA CASE WAS NOT REACHED Mr. lvins himself says: "1 am absolutely confident of my election. The Republican organization will give me a practically solid vote. Assurances already received privately as -well as publicly from the Independent vote make a total of at least 245,000 votes. Tammany Hall is split in two, and its district leaders are helpless to stem the revolt." Opinions of the Candidates. Conductor—H. 393, Gloomlngdale A.

Although the demonstration was formally abandoned, tens of thousands\of spectators flocked to the Nevsky prospect. The broad thoroughfare in front of the Kazan catiiedral was blocked by a dense mass of people, but there was no attempt at disorders and no occasion for the use of the squadrons of hussars, Cossacks and cuiralsiers held lu reserve in the side streets.

Appointed by the Court to Fill Va- ton Tomorrow Par Value and Book Value. tal From a Blow. cancies In Various Election It was expected that the Shea miners' certificate case would be called in the Lackawanna county equity court, this morning, but it was not reached, and It Is now thought that it will come up tomorrow. The point at Issue is the constitutionality of the miners' certificate law. The operators are seeking to have It declared Invalid, while the United Mine W.orkers are striving to support the law. Many weeks have been spent in preparing for this case, the depositions of scores of witnesses living in other states having been takKn In New York city and Chicago. The loan9 made by the company on the security of policies assigned as collateral amount to $25,805,890.50, according to the reports, and the bonds and stocks owned by the have a par value of $195,900,507 as against a book value of $2111,430,408 and a current market value on June 10. 1005, of |232.505,502. Districts. "Mr. McClellan said: "1 have no misgiving)* as to the outcome of the election. Attempts to divert the public mind from the real issues of the campaign have failed, and it will be freshly demonstrated that no candidate and no party can gain a victory on false lDretenses. 1 have the highest respect for the unerring Judgment of the American people, and 1 am content to take their decision on my record and on their faith in my promises, of which my two yearn of administration is my guarantee." cried Hannah Plant, of Little Rock.

The revolutionary leaders here anticipate a period of comparative quiet and speak of the great, strike simply as a "maneuver," which forced autocracy to George Hefferon, of 212 Linden street, Hcranton, & D.. L. & W. railroader, died this morning in Moses Taylor hospital from Injuries he received in u light itUe .Vaturday night. His assailant. Henry J. K-jnz, ot West Scranton, was committed to Jail with- DUt ball at a hearing before Alderman Howe at 2 oclock this afternoon, charged with manslaughter., Aecording vStnosien, 'he fight that resulted in the death of Hefferon was brought on by himself. He had been drinking in a saloon on Penn avenue with several other men. He sat down In a chair and, while he was dozing, some one brushed past him roughly. Hefferon Jumped angrily to his feet' and accused one of his companions of having done the act. It seemed as if Hefferon would start a 'lght and Kurz, who was drinking In the place, came forward and said that the man accused of having brushed against HefTeron did not do so. Hefferon then started words with Kuna and, after a time, th$y went out on the sidewalk, where the altercation was continued. Kunz thought he detected Hefferon feeling in his pockets for a knife, and he struck him on the law with his fist. Hefferon fell back against the sidewalk where he lay unconscious. He was removed to the hospital but did not regain consciousness, passing away this morning. A post mortem examination revealed that HefTeron's skull had been fractured for a distance of six Inches, this being the wound that caused death. The report discusses «at length a payment of $000,000 in jthe form of u clicck drawn* by the society to the Mercantile Trust company and dated Feb. 4. 1004. As the books of the society did not show the consideration for this check the report says It was necessary for the examiners to consult With the superintendent "t banks and look irfto die accounts of the trust company. The records of the society showed that the account involving the $000,000 check was closed to profit and loss ou the*Noclety's books on Dec. 31, 1904, and it was learned'that the trust company credited on the "G. V. Turner loan" most of the money realized from this check. As this transaction and other transactions between the Equitable and the trust companies do not tjppear oil the society's books, the report states that the collaterals for such loans are'not Included In the report as an arfset, nor are the society's guarantees In such transactions charged against It as a liability. MACHINISTS HAVE RETURNED TO WORK make concessions.

We expect nothing from bureaucracy, and only by a napular uprising can we achieve our'aim, which Is a constituent .aawmbly." Mr. Hearst said: "I am confident that the Municipal Ownership ticket will poll not less than 300,0$) votes. 1 believe It will poll more than that provided our friends vote a straight ticket and allow Murphy no opportunity to throw out marked ballots."

Of the men who went on strike all but four returned. Three of these are working In other places and the fourth will probably report for work at his old position within a few days. It Is more than likely that the other men will be back at the Exeter in the near future. The work of getting out machinery will, of course, be greatly "accelerated, now that the full force of machinists are at work. The foundry is manned by non-union moulders, and the strike of the union moulders continues without any change. The machinists struck out of sympathy with the moulders. It Is said they returned to work at the recommendation of the men for whom they struck. FATAL COLLISION FIVE WERE KILLED ODESSA BARBARITIES.

Thrilling. Experience. Yet Satisfiad. George tD. Loomls, formerly a practicing attorney at the Luzerne bar and later a resident of Chicago, died this morning: at fi o'clock at Wllkesbarre hospital, where he had been taken for an operation, Mr. Loomls was a brother of Mrs. Colonel Urquhart, of West Plttston. The deceased was born In Wilkesbarre on May 1, 1859, a son of W. W. lCooml»; who was at one time mayor of Wilkesbarre. After a common school education he attended Syracuse university and, after his graduation from this institution, he took up the study of law in the office of Agib Itlcketts, In Wilkesbarre. He later studied In the office of H. A. Fuller and was admitted to the bar In I8SC. He became active In music circles In Wilkesbarre, and took much Interest In movements to promote the Industrial prosperity of the city. JHe was one time nominated for mayor of the city but was defeated. RECORDS CRITICISED. LEADERS CONFIDENT. BURGLARS GOT MONEY THE CAPITAL QUIET. The Assets and Liabilities Philadelphia is Aroused as Farmer Was Bound and Gagged by Intruders. Demonstration Over Bodies of Riot Victims Forbidden. The fight for the office of district president of the new consolidated district elicited the most Interest, and while the best of feeling prevailed between the two districts, each was desirous of electing its man for the Important office. The names of Joseph P. Evans and Floyd S. Hess were placed In nomination. Evans was the newly elected district president of district No. 2 and Hess'of district No. 3, each having received his commission, and It was but fair that either of the two men should be elected to be the presiding officer of the new district. The convention then proceeded to votW and the ballot resulted In the election of Floyd H. Hess, of Camp 653, Forty Fort. Are Compared. Never Before. "Carbondale, Nov. 6.—Ell Avery, ai farmer living near Ararat Summit, about 20 miles north of hare, had a thrilling experience with a gang of six burglars at an early hour this morning. The burglars entered his home, bound and gagged him and his motherin-law, Mrs. Sartell, and took 1800 In cash which he had concealed beneath his pillow. Mrs. Avery was away from home on a .yislt. St. Petersburg, Nov. ©.—Sunday Happily passed in St. Petersburg without disorders of bloodshed. The Social ■Democrats and revolutionists had planned a mammoth demonstration In connection with the funerals uf those killed in last week's riots, aud It was Intended to form gigantic processions, representing the various industrial organizations in the suburbs, anil flying red flags and bear the bodies of /the "martyrs" in state through the center of the city, these processions uniting at the Kazan cathedral, where the passions of the crowds night be tired by revolutionary orators. , When it became known that (General Trepoff would not permit a big demonstration, threatening disorder, and that the mayor had issued a proclamation saying that the streets were 110 place for the airing of political grievances. the Socialist leaders cliUed oil their plans, declaring that they feared "this* demonstration of the people was marked for slaughter, for which they, were not prepared at present. The peo-' pie will give battle when ready, not when Trepoff wants it." Albany, N. Y., Nov. 0.—Stnte Superintendent of Insurance Hendricks has made public a supplementary report by It. H. Hunter, deputy superintendent of Insurance, and Chief. Examiner Isaac Vanderpoel on the condition of 1-tln.e Equitable Life Assurance Society 6t the United States at the close of busliless on June 30, 1905. Tile report first discusses the real estate of the society and places, the vAlue of its office buildings in various cities at $2fi,366,306, or $4.»»8,(Ui4 less than-the sun} at which tliey are carried. 011 the books of the society. It is explained by the report that this reduction ■ Is made on the basis of the earnings of the buildings, which yield 3 per cent on $26,366,360; New York, Nov. (1.—With the eyes of the country on the metropolis, New York Is proceeding with the work of electing a city administration to preside over Its affairs for four years. At this time tlie outcome of the election is as much In doubt as It was a few weeks ago, when the unexpectedly active canvass of William It. Hearst, the liead of the Municipal Ownership ticket, changed the campaign from one of lethargy to a coutest that has stirred the city in every uook and corner. At the evening sel-vlce In the Methodist church, M. 11, Keeler presented a report of the building fund of the church. He stated that when the new church was dedicated, one year ago, $21,000 were subscribed to pay off the debt 011 the building. Subscribers were -.allowed three years' time In which to pay their subscriptions', and Mr. Keeler reported that during the year Just closed .$12,000 had been paid 011 the subscriptions, or $rD,000 more than the one-third due. This was a most encouraging report, but one feature mentioned by Mr. Keeler was not So encouraging, the report showing that 41 subscribers had not paid anything on their subscriptions during the year. The robbery, which was no doubt one of the moat daring ever perpetrated in this vicinity was the carefully contemplated plan of si* desperate robbers. Seven years ago, Mr. Loomls left Wllkesbarre for Chicago, where he took up his residence. Recently he came to West Plttston and m.ade a ,visit with his sister. Before he started for his home he was stricken with a serious ailment, anil wa» taken to the hospital for an operation. Besides his sister, one brother survives Mr. Lioomls, W. ED. Ijoomls, of Wllkesbarre.Credit for the enlivening of the campaign must also be given to the liepublican candidate, Mr. William M. lying, who has made a good, light. Although his followers are quietly confident, to Judge from the consensus of expressed opinions, the contest lies between Mr. Hearst and Mayor McClellan, .the Democratic candidate for reelection.The other officers electcd were as follows: Vice President—D. L. Williams, of Camp 127, Larksvllle. The Avery house is situated about one mile and a half west of the Erie railroad near Ararat Summit, and about one-fourth of a mile from the residence of Albert Hines, his nearest neighbor. Mr. Avery Is one of Susquehanna county's most prosperous farmers, and his home is a model rural residence. He was In the habit of loaning money to persons on security, and this accounts for his having the large amount in his home. Late Saturday this amount was paid to him by a man to .whom he had loaned it. Secretury—George Mlllheim, Camp 653. Forty Fort. Treasurer—G. G. Phillips, of Camp 326, Plymouth. To the book Vjtjue of real estate the company has acquired under foreclosure the report adds $23,789.07, making the total estimated value of such real estate $4,004,500.23. Of the loans on bonds and mortgage the report says they represent ¥83,721,222.16 and have an average earning of *more than 4'/j per cent, and ."at no period of the society's existence has this clasiC of Investments been In a more satisfactory condition." The funeral will be held Wednesday morning at 10:30 from the residence 3t W. D. 274 South Franklin street, Wllkesbarre. Interment will be made in Hollenback cemetery. Master of Forms and Ceremonies— Mr. Culver, of Bloomingdale. Inspector—Coruy Lamoreaux, of Camp 32'), Luzerne borough. THE SHEA CASE WAS NOT REACHED Mr. lvins himself says: "1 am absolutely confident of my election. The Republican organization will give me a practically solid vote. Assurances already received privately as -well as publicly from the Independent vote make a total of at least 245,000 votes. Tammany Hall is split in two, and its district leaders are helpless to stem the revolt." Opinions of the Candidates. Conductor—H. 393, Gloomlngdale A.

Although the demonstration was formally abandoned, tens of thousands\of spectators flocked to the Nevsky prospect. The broad thoroughfare in front of the Kazan catiiedral was blocked by a dense mass of people, but there was no attempt at disorders and no occasion for the use of the squadrons of hussars, Cossacks and cuiralsiers held lu reserve in the side streets. The consolidated district will comprise ten camps on the West Side, from Plttston to Bloomlngdale. . Appointed by the Court to Fill Va- ton Tomorrow Par Value and Book Value. tal From a Blow. cancies In Various Election It was expected that the Shea miners' certificate case would be called in the Lackawanna county equity court, this morning, but it was not reached, and It Is now thought that it will come up tomorrow. The point at Issue is the constitutionality of the miners' certificate law. The operators are seeking to have It declared Invalid, while the United Mine W.orkers are striving to support the law. Many weeks have been spent in preparing for this case, the depositions of scores of witnesses living in other states having been takKn In New York city and Chicago. The loan9 made by the company on the security of policies assigned as collateral amount to $25,805,890.50, according to the reports, and the bonds and stocks owned by the have a par value of $195,900,507 as against a book value of $2111,430,408 and a current market value on June 10. 1005, of |232.505,502. Districts. "Mr. McClellan said: "1 have no misgiving)* as to the outcome of the election. Attempts to divert the public mind from the real issues of the campaign have failed, and it will be freshly demonstrated that no candidate and no party can gain a victory on false lDretenses. 1 have the highest respect for the unerring Judgment of the American people, and 1 am content to take their decision on my record and on their faith in my promises, of which my two yearn of administration is my guarantee." cried Hannah Plant, of Little Rock.

The revolutionary leaders here anticipate a period of comparative quiet and speak of the great, strike simply as a "maneuver," which forced autocracy to George Hefferon, of 212 Linden street, Hcranton, & D.. L. & W. railroader, died this morning in Moses Taylor hospital from Injuries he received in u light itUe .Vaturday night. His assailant. Henry J. K-jnz, ot West Scranton, was committed to Jail with- DUt ball at a hearing before Alderman Howe at 2 oclock this afternoon, charged with manslaughter., Aecording vStnosien, 'he fight that resulted in the death of Hefferon was brought on by himself. He had been drinking in a saloon on Penn avenue with several other men. He sat down In a chair and, while he was dozing, some one brushed past him roughly. Hefferon Jumped angrily to his feet' and accused one of his companions of having done the act. It seemed as if Hefferon would start a 'lght and Kurz, who was drinking In the place, came forward and said that the man accused of having brushed against HefTeron did not do so. Hefferon then started words with Kuna and, after a time, th$y went out on the sidewalk, where the altercation was continued. Kunz thought he detected Hefferon feeling in his pockets for a knife, and he struck him on the law with his fist. Hefferon fell back against the sidewalk where he lay unconscious. He was removed to the hospital but did not regain consciousness, passing away this morning. A post mortem examination revealed that HefTeron's skull had been fractured for a distance of six Inches, this being the wound that caused death. The report discusses «at length a payment of $000,000 in jthe form of u clicck drawn* by the society to the Mercantile Trust company and dated Feb. 4. 1004. As the books of the society did not show the consideration for this check the report says It was necessary for the examiners to consult With the superintendent "t banks and look irfto die accounts of the trust company. The records of the society showed that the account involving the $000,000 check was closed to profit and loss ou the*Noclety's books on Dec. 31, 1904, and it was learned'that the trust company credited on the "G. V. Turner loan" most of the money realized from this check. As this transaction and other transactions between the Equitable and the trust companies do not tjppear oil the society's books, the report states that the collaterals for such loans are'not Included In the report as an arfset, nor are the society's guarantees In such transactions charged against It as a liability.

Mr. Hearst said: "I am confident that the Municipal Ownership ticket will poll not less than 300,0$) votes. 1 believe It will poll more than that provided our friends vote a straight ticket and allow Murphy no opportunity to throw out marked ballots."

Of the men who went on strike all but four returned. Three of these are working In other places and the fourth will probably report for work at his old position within a few days. It Is more than likely that the other men will be back at the Exeter in the near future. The work of getting out machinery will, of course, be greatly "accelerated, now that the full force of machinists are at work. The foundry is manned by non-union moulders, and the strike of the union moulders continues without any change. The machinists struck out of sympathy with the moulders. It Is said they returned to work at the recommendation of the men for whom they struck. FATAL COLLISION FIVE WERE KILLED ODESSA BARBARITIES.
