Wheaton was in Wilkesharre yesterday, having come down from his Wyoming county farm, and denied the report that he has been offered the general solicitorship for the Valley Railroad Co.

Several names have been mentioned for the place, among them the name" of Judge WheaUnw When asked whether or not he would take the place he said: "Xo, I cannot say whether or not I will accept the place, for the simple reason that it has not been tendered me. Some time ago the company's so licitor.

Henry S. Drinker, resigned to take the presidency of Lehigh univer sity, and the board of directors is considering a successor. The fact that my name was possibly mentioned has led to the rumors of ray resignation from the Luzerne bench. No official offer has been made me and I have not been consulted by any ollicial high in the affairs of the company relative to the solicitorship." ITXAXCIAL AXI COMMERCIAL.

IRON MEN DID NOT COME Representatives of Columbian Co. Did Not Appear. Court House Work Still at Standstill Commissioners Will Ask President 1 toose vclt to Lay Corner Stone Outlook is Xot Very Reassuring For Early Start of Work. The court house muddle today represents nothing new as regards a recommencement of work. The optimistic views that the arrival of the iron company representatives woulu start the wheels going again do not appear so bright as they did yesterday.

The representatives of the company, who were expected to arrive in Wilkesharre this morning, failed to appear, much to the disappointment of the commissioners. It had been confidently expected that they would be on hand and settle the diiiiculties that have caused the latest stoppage of work. The attorney for the company, Mr. Strauss was called up by the commissioners and in answer to an inquiry he said that the company men had not come because they had been informed that trouble between the contractor and Carlucci, the sub contractor, would make their presence in the city useless. He said they would probably arrive tomorrow.

This excuse was looked at with considerable suspicion. The commissioners have announced that they intend to ask President Roosevelt to lay the corner stone of the new building on the occasion of his visit. August. 10. DRIVERS MAY STRIKE.

Trouble in Scranton Over Refusal of Transfer Company to Sign Wage Agreement. The Scranton Teamsters' union has appointed a committee to take up the question of a uniform workday, and a minimum wage scale. The controversy now seems to hinge on the Scranton Transfer and it is said that the committee is empowered to order a strike, unless the demands of the union are complied with. liusi ness Agent Shea says: "We will resort to all means that are honorable to secure what is asked by the men before any decided action is taken. The matter has been referred to a committee empowered to call a strike should negotiations with the transfer company fail." The transfer company employs about 50 teamsters, and, they are paid $4 0' a month.

In this branch of industry there has never been any generally recognized hours fif labor, and the men have been required to work long hours, just as the demands of the business warranted. The. union demands $45 a month, a proper regulation of hours, and recognition of the union. A committee has waited on Mr. Keenan, and he says that the company cannot grant the demands of the union at this time, and refuses to sign an agreement.

Grafters Beg for Mercy. Pottsville, July 13.

It is the tale of a negro who stowed himself away in the hold of a vessel, waited until she got out to sea. shot down her crew and passengers oue by one, forced a seaman at the point of a Winchester ritle to scuttle the ship and after killing him escaped from the sinking schooner with $1,400 he knew was concealed in the captain's cabin. The victims total twelve, one being a woman, another a child. The sole survivor, also a woman, escaped by leaping into the sea and swimming to shore. Her story led to the arrest of the murderer, who, it is declared, will be put to death by torture.

Was to Buy Cattle. The little island of Utilla, lying off the Houdurean coast, was the scene of the tragedy in which a dozen lives were sacrificed through avarice. The captain of the little schooner Olympia was about to make a trip to Ruatan. Truxillo and Belize. He had about $1, 100 and was to buy cattle at Truxillo to sell nt Belize.

He carried a crew of four and a number of passengers, making the total list of people aboard number thirteen. Among these were two women and two children. The vessel left the harbor of Ftllla at 11 o'clock Friday night. June 30, and after she had been under way less than an hour everybody was aroused by a shot and rushing on deck found a negro armed with a Winchester shooting down the men one after another. This negro was Robert McGill, and as it afterward developed he had stowed himself away aboard with the intention of robbing the captain and then swimming ashore.

After he had killed all but one of the men he ordered the last survivor to go below and scuttle the ship. When the unfortunate reap peared on deck and reported the negro shot him dead. Killed Woman and Child. He then put" the two women. Miss Elsie Morgan and her sister, Mrs.

Walter Rose, In the dory with Mrs. Rose's six weeks' old infant and left the boat, steering for the mainland. He changed his mind about allowing the womeu to live and killed Mrs. Rose and her infant. Then he began shooting at Miss Morgan and wounded her in the arm.

She jumped overboard and started to swim back to the island. He fired at her Ineffectually, but his ammunition evidently gave out, for he promised her immunity from harm If she would come back to the dory. She started back, and when within oar's length he struck her on the head with an our, stunning her. Believing she was dead he rowed away toward the mainland. Miss Morgan swam back to the island, where she was thrown on tbe beach by the waves in an exhausted condition, sue feared that the negro would follow her, so she hid in the bushes and for two days suffered from the heat and exposure until found by a woman from her neighborhood and rescued from starvation.

Might Have Escaped If He Used Equitable Methods. New York, July 13.

In sentencing Emil 11. Nounier, the Equitable Life Assurance society clerk who was under indictment for complicity in rol biiig the society of Judge Warren B. Foster took occasion to make comment on certain phases of the recent scandal in the Equitable by comparing the crime of Neumer with methods of oflieinls high in the Equita ble. Judge Foster said: "Your crime is a serious one. You were a trusted clerk of the Equitable Life Assurance society, recreant to your trust, and through you the society had lost more than You have received your share of the st lcn property.

Clerks who are recreant to a trust must be punished as matter of public policy. "I can see no good reason for mercy in your case. You not only stole the money, but you spent it in extravagant living. The policy of the law is to extend mercy to those who extend aid to prosecuting authorities, and therefore you are entitled to mercy, and for that reason only. Methods Were Crude.

"Yon stole from the Equitable, but the methods were crude and bungling. If you had instead of collusion with an outsider colluded with an insider and thereby had your salary raised to fud then divided with the other man. the result would not have been a bit more objectionable from a moral or ethical standp iint and would have been no more irtfui to the policy holders, but possibly you would not have been ac the bar of justice. "Under all the circumstances in the case, compelled, an I am to extend to you mercy by reason of your services to the people, the sentence of the court is that you be confined to the Eimira reformatory." With a general reduction of all salaries in the Equitable Life Assurance society above $2,500 a year, Paul Morton, chairman of the board, expects to save from to $200,000 a year, lie announced this phase of his reorganization plans by sending a letter to all departments reading: "Taking effect Aug. 1.

the following reductions will be made in the salaries of ofliecrs and employees of this society: Twenty per cent decrease from all salaries over $15,000 per annum; 15 per cent decrease from all annual salaries between $0,000 and both inclusive; 10 per cent decrease, from nil salaries above $2,500 and below $9,000 per annum." Ryan Saved Washington Life. New York. July 13. The following statement has been given out by Thomas F. Ryan: "The reports of my con nection with the Washington Life Insurance company are Inaccurate.

When that company was on the verge of bankruptcy last December from mismanagement I joined Coventor Morton and others in subscribing the necessary money to put the company in the strong financial position in which it finds itself today. Its business is dally increasing, and the policy holders tre to be congratulated on Governor Morton's willingness, wholly from a sense ot duty and in spite of his ad vanced age, to step iu to prevent im pending disaster to a company of which ho had been a charter member."

ADDRESS TO DOCTORS. This Country's Performan ces in Cuba Praised. Oyster Bay. N. July 13.

President Roosevelt, speaking to the Associated Physicians of Lone Island, de clared that in spite of all difficulties ou tbe isthmus and here in tbe United States the Panama cau. il would be a success. He paid a tribute to Uie serv lees of General Leonard Wood, whose career as a military officer, be said. was flouted by some critics because be once bad been a doctor. Mr.

Roosevelt said in part: "It is almost needless to say that there is not and cannot bo any otiiei lay profession the members of which occupy such a dual position each side of which is of such importance, for the doctor has on the one hand to be the most thoroughly educated man in applied science that there Is in the country, and, on the other hand, as every layman knows, the doctor gradually becomes the closest friend to more different people than would be possible in any other profession. "The feelings that a man has toward the one human being to whom he turns, either in time of sickness for himself or, what Is far more important, in the time of sickness of those closest and dearest to him, cannot but be of a peculiar kind. The doctor must therefore to the greatest degree develop both sides of his nature develop "his nature along the two sides of his duties, although in the case of any other man you would call him a mighty good citizen if he developed only on one side. Digging Panama Canal. "Take, for instance, just what is being done in one of the great works of this country at the present time digging the Panama canal.

That is a work that only a big nation could undertake or that a big nation could do, and It is a work for all mankind. And the condition precedent upon success In that work is having the proper type of medical work as a preliminary, 'j'iiat is the first condition upon the meeting of which much depends our success in solving the engineering and administrative problems of the work itself. "I am happy to say that the work Is being admirably done, and I am particularly glad to have this chance of saying it. Now and then some alarmist report will come from Panama. Just a couple of weeks ago there seemed to be a succession of people coining up from Panama, each one of whom had some tale or other to tell.

You will always find in any battle, even if It is a victorious buttle, that in the rear you meet a number of gentlemen who are glad they are not at the front, who if they had unfortunately got at the front must have come away and who justify their absence from the front by telling tales of how everything has gone wrong there. Success Predicted. "Whenever troubles come there will be a largo number of excellent but timid men who will at once say what an awful calamity it is and express the deepest sorrow and concern and be rather inclined to the belief that the whole thing is a failure, it will not be a failure. It will be a success, and It will be a success because we shall treat every little check not as a reason for abandoning the work, but as reason for altering and bettering our plans so as to make it impossible that that particular check shall happen again. "This country has never done better work that is, work that reflected more honor upon the country or for humanity at large than the work done in And the man who above all others will be responsible for doing that work so well was a member of your profession who.

when the call to arms canio, himself went as a soldier to the field, the present Major General Leonard Wood. Leonard Wood did in Cuba just the kind of work that, for instance. Lord Cromer has done in Egypt. We have not been able to reward Wood in anything like the proportion that services such as his would bjave been rewarded in any other country of the first rank in the world. And there have been no meaner and more unpleasant manifestations in all our public history than the feelings of envy and jealousy manifested toward Wood.

And the foul assaults and attacks made upon him, gentlemen. wre largely because they grudged the fact that this admirable military officer should have been a doctor." Liked Boy's Voice. Cleveland, July 13. John D. Rockefeller has rescued Harry Evans, twelve years old, from beer garden and will educate him and support his widowed mother.

The lad had been singing in a garden to get money to support himself and his mother. He has a fine voice and attracted much attention. Bankers' Convention Opens, Frontcnoc, N. July 13.
