THE ALLENTOWN DAILY DEADER. 2 PATRIOTIC SONS EMAUS MORAVIANS SPORTING EVENTS POLITICAL GOSSIP WEATHER INDICATIONS. The disturbance noted on yesterday morning's map oft the Carolina coast Kentucky on Treasurer John P. Fren-et at the meeting of the Gold Stand, ard Democratic Committee on Wednesday, when he charged that Frenzel had received money from the Republican Committee to be used In the campaign has brought out some statements regarding the balance left over and the sources from which It was received. John R.

Wilson, member of the National Gold Democratic Committee for Indiana, said that not a dollar had come from the Republican Committee, nor was the committee solicited to subscribe to the Gold Democratic fund. He said that the money for the campaign was solicited by the late Gov. FloWer of New York, and nearly all of it was subscribed by Democrats In that city and state. There Is now $3000 In the hands of Treasurer Frenzel, and the report to the committee last Wednesday showed that the amount was drawing Interest at the usual rate paid by the Indiana Trust Company, of which Mr. Frenzel Is president.

Mr. Wilson says that there was never any effort to conceal the fact that the committee had money on hand or what the exact amount Is. TEXAS STIRRED UP. The Texas Democracy is greatly stirred up over the trust question. At the State Bar Association meeting at Galveston former Governor J.

MARRIED LIFE ONE GRAND SWEET SONG. Her 25th baby, fat and happy, is crowing In the arms of Mrs. Samuel Swarthwood of Wilkes-Barre, wife of an engineer on the Central Rail road of New Jersey. The mother has been married 29 years. Sne has borne two sets of twins.

SLANDERS OUR ORATORS. A prominent Democrat, says the Bethlehem Times, in discussing the list of candidates for the Legislature, stated that It was In many respeotB a matter to be deplored that Lehigh County was politically not a debatable county, br It would result In inereas Ing the intellectual standard of our legislative representatives. I quote his words: "For yearB this county, one of the richest, most prosperous and most Intelligent In the commonwealth, has been absolutely nil In the councils of representatives at Harrlsburg. The county has been misrepresented for years. The majority of our representatives In the Assembly have been absolutely devoid of a single attribute that fits a man for such a position.

We have had, and still have, assemblymen whose knowledge of the English language is merely elementary. With the exception of one Assemblyman the rest can not speak five consecutive minutes on any subject without long and careful preparation beforehand. Were the political forces more evenly balanced the Democrats would be compelled to nominate men of so high a grade of Intelligence that their education would be an honor to their party and the county they represented." While some of our Assemblymen may not have been the most polished orators, there Is a long line of them with sterling, first-class common sense from Judge David Laury and Samuel J. Klstler of 40 years ago to Uncle Jerry of to-day. W.

J. Bryan says that In his notification speech at Indianapolis he will follow the plan which he pursued at the notification meeting in 1896. "The platform of that year," he said, "declared the money question to be a paramount issue, and In my notification speech I devoted almost all the time to the discussion of that question, leaving the other question to be considered In my letter of acceptance and in subsequent speeches. This year the platform declares the question of Imperialism to be the paramount question and it will be the only one dealt with at any length In my notification speech. The remaining questions covered by the platform will be taken up in my letter of acceptance and subsequent speeches." HANNA FULL OF FIGHT.

Republican National Chairman Mark A. Hanna visited the New York headquarters yesterday, where he spoke to the reporters as follows: "What Is all this nonsense I hear about the Republican national managers not Inviting Thomas B. Reed to speak In this campaign? It Is all nonsense. Mr. Reed will certainly be invited to speak, and so will all good Republicans who are such good orators as Mr.

Reed. This is to be a speaking campaign and all Republicans who love the Republican party are to come out and help along the battle. I am not going to speculate on this fight. It Is altogether too early In the game. I learn that the Democrats are claiming all sorts of success even at this early stage.

Well, It won't do any harm for them to claim the earth, but In the meantime we shall keep pegging away, and you may rest assured that the finest battle you ever Baw will be put up for McKinley and Roosevelt. There are no reports from any stale worth talking about at this time. We know enough of the situation to be perfectly aware that the people of the United States want to hear all about the issues of this campaign. If the Democrats assert that Imperialism is one of the Issues It will be the duty of our speakers and the Republican press ot the country to tell the voters all about that subject. Then, If the Dem-crats tell us that trusts are to be discussed, our speakers and the Republican press will tell all about the trust Then, as to free silver at a ratio of 16 to 1, which the Democrats Insist shall be the money of the country, well, all that It is necessary to say about that ia that the voters will be told about that by the national Republican campaigners In every state in the Union.

I do not believe In claiming success at this time In the battle. It Is almost childish to do so. We have all got the hardest kind of work before us. We are all In good health, for which we must be thankful, and we are ready for this hard work. We shall convince the people that the Republican party Is right, and that In the maintenance of Republican principles lies the continued prosperity of every business man in the country and every worklngman In the country."

COMPLETE LIST OF THE PASTORS The One Hundred and ifty-Third Anniversary to Be Celebrated TomorrowBut One Family of the Founders Now Left. The Moravian congregation at Emaus, of which Rev. Samuel H. Gapp Is pastor, will celebrate Its 153rd anniversary to-morrow. The Moravians settled at Emaus and named the place at about the same time that Bethlehem and Nazareth were also settled by the same sect.

As early as 1741 Count Zln-zendorf preached to the faithful in Jacob Ehrnhard's home at Emaus. In 1742 a log church was built on land donated by Mr. Ehrnhard. This nucleus of the prospective congregation was ministered unto during the next few years by different Moravian clergymen from Bethlehem. July 30, 1747, a congregation was regularly organized with Anthony and Elizabeth Wagner as pastors.

A boarding school was also started In 1746 by Rev. Christian Heynn, which was discontinued in 1753 when the Indians became troublesome and threatened to exterminate the settlers. Churches were built In 1746, 1766 and 1836, as the needs of the years demanded. The last named, a stone structure Is still standing together with a. chnpel erected In 1876.

The original founders of the congregation were the following: Sebastian and Catharine Knaus, Jacob and Barbara Ernhard, Conrad and Catharine Wezel, Joseph and Susanna Graff, Johannes and Catharina Knaus, Jacob ami Mary Losclier, Philip and Mary Krazer, John and Maria jvohler, Henry and Catharina Gulh, Martin and mui. beth Bamberger, Samuel aind Catharina I Kopp, John and Veronica Lnndls, Jacob and Catharina Unerstler, Anton and Catharina Albrecht, George and Chrls-tianna Hnrtman, Tobias and Margareth Weber, Peter and Mary Hoffman, Rudy and Mary Oberly, Frederick and Maria lisausenberger, Catharina Girth, Ger trude Cog, Roslna Pflnsttag and Ro-eina Moa, 44 members.

Philadelphia added one more Victory to tho string by defeating Chicaftii the first game of the series yesterday Piatt was wild, but kept the hits we scattered and had lots of luck holdln the men on bases after giving them free passes. Griffith, who pitched fo; the Colts, opened in form an 1 wa responsible for the lead of five run given the Phillies. After that the game was better on both sides, but the Quakers were never headed.

After Powell and Kltson had been retired the game between St. Lou and Brooklyn merged into a pitcher': oauie. louiig was cnective, whli iJiinn was hit hard In the sixth inning. Stahl's tmmc run drive and Hamilton good work on the bases carried Boston to victory in the nlmli inning with Pittsburg. Timely halting by the Giants downed Cincinnati.

The feature of the Paris internatlon al chess toruney was the splendid show ing of the Brooklyn champion, Mar s'liall, who tied with Mnroesy for third place, being but half a point behind Pillsbury. Among his victories were several uiilhant ji.t un Joulittdly the most notable was the one when he lowered Champion Jjasker's Dr. Laskcr, except when In an international tourney, or when contesting In a championship iia.c Uw- clay any rhess, anl games played by him are not very numerous, while those he losas are Ecarcer still, Oscar Gardner of Omaha and Eddie Lenny of Philadelphia boxed 2t rounds at catch weight? before the IJrondway Athletic.

OUTDID CHICAGO STRATEGY. One of those National League rules that so seldom get an outing that they become moldy and covered with cobwebs came to light In yesterday's game at Philadelphia Park. It was the one relating to players eligible to take part in a contest being seated on the play ers bench, and the most persistent at tendant at the park couldn't recall see lng this bit of legislation rung in be fore. The occurrence arose in the seventh Inning, when Douglass, whose anatomy seemed to be particularly attractive to the ball, got another knock and his re tirement was rendered compulsory, McFarland, who was sunning himself like a frog over by the clubhouse, was signaled for.

Eddie came gallantly and sprinting ly to the rescue. He donned the catch er's armor, only to be ordered back to the bench. Then Douglass reappeared escorting a limp that was painful to behold. The cause of the switching of backstip mystified the crowd, who didn't know what the council at the pitcher's slab was about. It was caused, however, by Chicago's kick, they claiming that McFarland could not catch, as he had not been sitting on the player's bench.

When Douglass got his harness on again Captain Pelahanty called the battery Into executive session with himself and mapped out the plans of the campaign. The game was resumed, and, as soon as the first ball was pitched, which wa.s far wide of tho plate, Pelahanty called: "Come on, Eddie," and Douglass drop- red his mask and protector and Mc Farland went In. This fooled the crowd more than ever, nnd the evil-minded wondered if something hadn't gone wrong with the team. The majority of flie crowd left the park still wondering what it was all about. Those who knew wondered If It was good sportsmanship on Chicago's part to compel an Injured player to continue in a contest until a technicality in the rules could be straddled but, then, ball games are not won on sympathy.

Mr. Smith Is a candidate for renom- Inatlon, and up to this time he had no opposition.

Mr. Smith accuses Hogg of demagogery In the position which he has taken on the trust questions. WEILER LAW INVALID. THE SUPERIOR COURT DECIDES AGAINST DISCRIMINATION. The act of Assembly of June 4, 1S97, providing for the punishment of employers who attempt to coerce their workmen because they belong to labor organizations has Just been declared unconstitutional by the Superior Court.

The ruling was made in an opinion handed down by President Judge Rice, affirming the Judgment of the Quarter Sessions Court of Lackawanna County In the case of the Commonwealth against George Clark. The defendant was Indicted under the section of the act making it a misdemeanor for an employer to coerce, or attempting to coerce, an employe by discharging, or threatening to discharge him from employment because of his connection with a lawful organization. The lower Court quashed the indictment, on the ground that the clause of the statute was in violation of Article 3, Section 7, of the constitu tion of this state, forbidding the Legislature passing any local or special law regulating labor, trade, mining or manufacturing. AVIth this view the Superior Court concurs. In introducing the subject, Judge Rice says that the principle Involved in such legislation Is very far reach' lng, as it would extend to the mem bership of an employe In any lawful organization, or the employment of men belonging to such societies, or would make It a misdemeanor for an employe to coerce an employer, be cause he refused to employ men not to his liking.

These things condemned," the opin ion continues, "are the coercion and the attempted coercion of an employe; but as the statute declares what acts shall constitute coercion or attempted coercion, it is plainly to be seen that it forbids under penalty, the discharge of an employe because of his connec tion with any labor organization. It would seem clear that a law which provides that one employed to labor shall not be discharged by his employer for a cause which they deemed and agreed to be sufficient, when the contract of employment was made, or that he shall not be discharged for the same cause, when, by the terms of the contract of employment, the em ployer has a right to discharge him, and he has a right to quit work at his mere pleasure, or that a laborer shall not quit work because his employer has formed or Joined an association ot employers lawfully organized for their mutual aid, benefit or protection, Is a law regulating labor. And such a law, when operative to restrict the natural rights of those engaged in trade, mining or manufacturing, with respect to the conduct of such busi ness, Including, of course, the selection and discharge of employes, may also be regarded as a law regulating' trade, mining or manufacturing, as the ease may be. Is this a special law! The only em ployers affected by the act are corpora tions. It Is unquestionably class legis lation, but class legislation Is not necessarily special legislation, within the meaning of the prohibitory provisions of our state constitution.

As its tide Indicates, It is an act to protect certain employes, or, to be more explicit, It extends protection to the employes of corporations, whilst denying the same protection to the employes of Indivi duals, firms and limited partnerships. It deprives corporations of the right to discharge employes for certain causes, whilst leaving lnnivinuais, firms and limited partnerships free to discharge their employes for the same cause at will. It has been well said arbitrary se lection can never be Justified by call ing It classification. If It be said that legislation for the protection of employes as a clasB, against coercion or unfair and unconscionable dealings on the part of employes as a class, Is a valid exercise of the police power of tho state, the plain answer is that, even if the soundness of this general principle be conceded, it does not apply here, because the Ret under con- slucration does not apply a.iKe to nil members of the two classes, namely, employers and employes. We are all of opinion that this must be declared to bo a special law within the true intent and meaning of the constitution." IN SPECIAL SESSION.
