1 1 "4 1 IN NEW YORK CITY. EDGAE ALLAN P0E AND When the plans for the celebration was arranged that fitting ceremonies be of Nrw York city; where rh pOt''WnBlled. This modest dwelling, which wits the scene of the bltteresi experience of Poe's unhappy career, still stands and is a source of interest to every one who visits that part of New York city. It 1 ouly a short distance from the old Dutch Reform church where Poe buried his young wife. WORK WITH DIFHGULTY The Air in the Mine Is Bad and te De laying the Work of Rescuing Bodies of the Victims.

Switchback, W. Jan. 15 One hundred men worked all night in the ill fated Lick Branch mine witnout recovering a single body. The work has reached a place where the explosion is supposed to have occurred and progress is necessarily slow, as the air in the mine is still very bad. It is now thought the disaster was caused by a dust explosion and mine inspectors are considering appointing a commission of mine experts of Kon awha, Pocahontas and Fairmont districts to investigate the case of both disasters.

In one place yesterday seven were found in a pile a mile and a half from the mine entry. The mine is a complete wreck. MINERS' DELEflALES OFF TO INDIANAPOLIS Locals of the Anthracite Region Will Be Represented by Unusually Large Delegation. About seventy delegates from the First district of the United Mine Workers will leave Soranton tonight and tomorrow morning for Indianapolis to attend the national convention which will open there on Tuesday. The delegaions from the three anthracite districts will be exceptionally strong on this occasion, each local sending its full representation.

Between executive officers, board' members national organizers and delegates it is likely that there will be close upon three hundred representatives of the anthracite miners in Indianapolis, if not on the actual day of the opening of the convention, at least before the more important proceedings are in movement. Intense interest Is being taken throughout the mining regions East and West in the outcome of this convention. It is stated positively, that no matter whether Walker or iLewis wins in the presidential contest, the solidarity of the union will be jeopardized. 'Lewis is a. using Walker of trying to disrupt the union, while Walker asserts with equal emphasis that Lewis and his followers are solely responsible for the demoralized condition into which the organization has fallen.

The reports of the defeat or success of President Lewis in the election that has taken place are conflicting. Those which come from Indianapolis assert that Lewis is elected by a substantial, if not by an overwhelming majority. On the other hand, the reports emanating from Springfield, 111., the headquarters of the district of which Walker Is president, assert that he has triumphed with the aid of the anthracite miners. John T. Dempsey will undoubtedly poll the entire anthracite delegation for the office of vice president.

Should he receive the support that his friends anticipate, he will undoubtedly oe elected. But. of course, there Is vno assurance that he will receive a sufR ci nt number of votes from the western contingent to give him a majority. His success or failure, will very much depend upon the result of the presidential election. If Walker is elected, they say that he would probably use his influence and prestige to have the anthracite man elected as vice president to rally around him the anthracite miners, to whom he is a compar ative stranger, rl'rsonally.

in a word. Dempsey's friends claim that his chances of election to the vice presidency are highly favorable. There is not much hope that jonn Kahy will be elected secretary treasurer. He may receive the votes of the delegation from the Ninth district on the first ballot, but it Is assumed that he will then drop out of the race. He does not expect to be elected himelf, and the only reason for him running is more or less a matter of policy.

The demands formulated at the anthracite region convention held in Scranton during the summer will be laid before the convention, and It is expected that they will receive its approbation without modification, although the hard coal men may offer some suggestions which may be incorporated into the schedule already drawn up. But these are not considered of any importance. The interest of the convention will be center ed around the presidential fight. Neither the offices of the union nor the rank and file of the miners conceal from themselves or others the mo mentous consequence, of the result of the fight for leadership of the union, between the two strong men wno are in a life and death struggle for as cendancy in its councils. POLISH CHURCHMEN HAVE SERIOUS TROUBLE Row Was Precipitated at" Meeting Held in Glen Lyon to Reorganize Church.

A meeting in Stegmaier's hall, Glen Lyon, last night, to organize an Independent Polish church broke up in a free for all light, in which black eyes were administered liberally, faces imprinted with tinger nall markings, windows broken, Bishop Hodur, of South Scranton, presided. The hall was jammed when the meeting opened and most fo those in attendance appeared to be opposed to the independent church. All the speakers who took one side or the other were hooted oy tne opposite party, till the friction became so acute that the row started and dozens got rough handling. The bishop kept his head level and succeeded in restoring order. He ask ed all not in sympathy with the new church to vacate theh all and ifcave it to those who were.

He was taken at his word and the place was almost deserted, according vo report, as soon as they could get out. The few who remained concluded to postpone action till some other time, when those who do not favor the movement can be kept at nome. STABBKD BY A WOMAN. Sunbury. Jan.
