SQUATTER SOVEREIGNTY. ‘Continued Opposition of the Delaware ond Hudson Canal Company and Its Men at Carbondale, Pa. A Deputation of ‘Miners and Labor. ers Interview the President of the Company. Soranton, Pa., Dec. 29, 1873, The complication between the Delaware and ‘Hudson Canal Company and its miners at Carbon- dale, Pa., still continues to grow more and more complex. The works of the company have been stopped at that city, and about 3,000 men and boys are idle in consequence, About 300 acres of the Jaad originally belonging vo the Delaware and Hud- son Canal Company have been occupied free by the miners for upwards of 21 years, and as a natural consequence of the law that gives recognition to the right of prolonged occupancy the miners claim that the land is theirs. They have built houses, re- claimed the wilderness, made improvements, and now refuse to. sign leases to the company, as they believe they would in such an event be signing away their legal rights to the property. A deputa- tion of half a dozen workingmen waited on Thomas Dickson, Esq., President of the Delaware and Hud- son Canal Company, at his office in this city, on ‘Tuesday last, and had AN INTERVIEW ‘with him on the subject. The deputation con- sieted of Messrs. Mooney, Kilpatrick, Gordon, ‘Walsh and Collins. The company’s land agent at Providence, a short distance from Scranton, was telegraphed for and shortly put in an appearance, The HERALD correspondent was the only re- porter who was cognizant of the interview. Mr. Dickson seemed at the outset to object to any re- Dorter being present, but he finally consented to allow your correspondent to remain during the in- terview, of which the tollowing la a verbatim report:— : Mr. Dicxsoy—Well, men, we are Pitre te to hear what you have to say on this land question at Carbondale. Mr. MoonEY—Well, we are not prepared to say ‘much on the subjec.. "A letter was received yes- terday in Carbondale from Mr. Pierce, of this city, ‘stating that he had seen you, that he thought the company would sell the land at a low price and recommended a deputation to wait on you. Ac- cordingly, a meeting was held last night and ap- .pointed us to come and see Ta. to know upon ‘What terms you Pppche to sell the land. Mr. DickSON—Have you seen my letter to our Mr. Weston? NEY—Yes, we saw it while we were on sour way here in the cars. Mr. Dickson—That letter contains our sentiments on the subject. Iam willing it should be settled as s00n a8 possible. Mr. MOoNEY—The great point is, that the men think they would be signing away their rights by adopting the terms of the lease, Mr. DicksoN—We are wiking to make the lease such as will embody the sentiments of that letter. WB DON’? WANT YOUR PROPERTY, WE SIMPLY WANT OUR RIGHTS, and those we propose to have. The idea ts not entirely 4 new one; it was advanced some 15 years ago and it was the fault of our ofictals that it was not putin force, We propose that you shall take a lease because we want our rights recognized. Mr, MooneY—You don’t consider tuat we have ‘any Tights then? ir. Dickson—Certainly I do, If the present Jease does not give satisfaction then we shalldraw up another one, giving you the option and first se. id’ agent)—The old leases give 3 they are, however, made out for one ‘the new ones will be made out fro that option year only. one to five years. Mr. KiLPATRICK—Does not the lease say, if we don’t _remove our house betore the lease runs out, that we don’t own them aiter that time. Ag WESTON—The lease doesn’t say so. . MoonRzY—But it implies as much. Mp. Weston—It gives you the option to remove your house before the expiration o1 the lease. ir. MOONBY—The lease Coes not give us the privilege to rent 4 room or any part of our houses without your agent’s consent, Mr. DicKson—1 Bok ees you mean a transfer. Mr, MoonkY—No, | mean to rent any portion of the louse, Mr. COLLINS—The lease gives the company the Pee of running a road right through our uses without giving us aby Compensation. Mr. Dickson—Well, have We ever taken any ad- yaaer of you? Have we not always compensated you) Mr. CoLLINs—Always; yes, sir, you have. Mr. Dickson—My idea is to give the men the right to occupy the lands as they have been, with tune first right to purchase them whenever they are put in the market at a price to be xed now—that 4, a8 000.8 WO can make @ survey of te prop- erty, Mr. Kiiparrror—Well, I suppose we can be ood friends, and go on with our work in the meantime, Mr. DicksON—We must have the thing settled before any work is commenced. ~Mr. CoLLins—I have expended every dollar that Tearned in the last 27 years in improving my lot and making a home, and | feel that it is too bad wow to have to give it up, ._dir, Dicr4ox—We don't want you to give it ap; we Want you to fix your title, Mr. Weston—The company has never threatened you nor said you would have to give your property up, although a great deal has been said about the matter in pers. Mr, W ALsH—Then the only way to settle it is to SELL US THE LAND AT WHAT IT WAS WORTH WHEN WE CAME THERE, And that is very little. Mr. DUDLEY GoRDON—Is it to the, surface or the ‘mineral you lay claim? Mr. Dicxson—Both. Mr. Moonsy—We may as well, then, tell you the qmen’s sentiments, paey, will never take a lease— not even if you don’t give them work—no matter ‘what the consequence may be, All that have ex- Pressed their views say that they will sign no Jeases, although they may consent to buy out at reasonable prices, not that they don’t think the dand belongs to them, but because they want the Pleasure ol working for the company—if pleasure it may be called—and because there are no other ‘works ia the a Mr. Dickson—It strikes me as being eminently proper that the men should confide in the company 4 little more. There is uo desire to take anything that is not ours legally and equitably. Mr. MoonBy—The company took 4 wrong way of @etting to an understanding with the men. Mr. DicksoN—This is not a new question at all. It has been a standing order tor many years, Mr. COLLINS—I have hved on the land 27 years and have never been asked to take a lease before now. If t had been [ wou!d not pave expended all qmy earnings on it and put up @ house to have it taken from me again. x Mr. DicksoN—There is no desire to take your house irom you. Mr. Kitpatrick—When I bought my property at ‘Sherif’s sate I was told that | would never be dis- turbed. {t has cost me $1,100 to put up a house. Mr. MOONBY—It is not the original squatters alone who are sufferers yA transaction, but also the young men who board with their parents, even they are not allowed to work because their parents hold land on the squatters’ right. Mr. Dickson—We don’t want but what is just. ifa man mj dag your house, for instance, on sul- trage, and ‘you allow hy to reside there for a cer- tain time, and that when you wanted bim to give up you wouldn’t be tue best of friends in case he opposed you. Tt, MOONEY—That is quite a different case, sir, altogether. WE DID NOT GO IN ON SUFFRAGE. WE WERE IN- VITED BY THE COMPANY to go and settle on what was a wilderness, and ‘we made our homes there and expended our money bu improvements, and when we have done that you want us to give them up, Mr. Dickson—We will ict you remain there; all ‘We want you to do is to recognize us as your land- lord and’ recognize our title, Whenever we feel disposed to seli you shall lave the premier privi- lege of purchase, tT, MOONEY—The men want to buy now. Mr. WALSH—I’m atraid you want to get the lock on us. Mr. Dickson—My record with the men in the ast, I think, 18 a suMcient guaranty of my charac- er th that regard. Mr. KiLpaTRick—Can we go to work in the mean- time? Mr, DixoN—Not until this ts settled. Mr, WaLsH—The men want to know what you think the land is worth? Mr. DicksON—That we cannot tell until we have made surveys Of the property. Mr. MOONEY—The company took away the lum- ber, for the suriace and the coal trom beneath, and surely the land can’t be worth much to them now. “the house I lived in caved tn three times, Mr. DicKsoN—Well, you are not compelled to stay ‘ou take all these chances, Mr, Moonky—t cannot get away, Mr, Diekson—I want you to lay the terms of my letter to Mr, Weston, our agent, before the mon. If the leases in vogue at preseyt don’t give satis- factory assurance 0: what you call your rights I am. ‘willing that others shail be drawn up to your sat- istaction. Idon’. want any catch either way. T would not be a party to such a trick for all the lots in Carbondale, and everything [ tell you here to-day will be religiously observed. Mr. Mooxgy—We will submit your terms to the men, Mr, Lexson—You know It was very wrong to use violence ‘0 our surveyors, as you did the other day—criving them of and threatening thelr lives, It is no use jor you to take up the hatchet in that Jashion and take the jaw in your own hands, Mr. Moonry—There are few excitable persons GMONg Us Lal We O1 Course Cannot be respousibie .Carbondale will distinguish NEW YORK HERALD, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1873.—TRIPLE vo SHEET. ; for. A community cannot be held to account for the acts of a half dozen people. Mr. Dickson—Ii you discountenance such things and frown them down they will not be done. The company Will not, cannot, be frightened into dolng ane: UDLEY GoRDON—Carbondale has always been a peacable city. Mr, Dioxson—I give the men credit for the time I’ve been connected with them, and there is no man who can say that! ever attempted to do him au injustice. I would be the first man to hold up my hands against a wrong. Mr. Moonky—We cannot get to see the leases that the company want us tosign. They must be very bad if the oificials are ashamed to show them, Areporter who visited Carbondale the other day could not get one, Mr, Dickson—Whenever you want to see them you can have them from our office. . MoonnY—Well, before going away we would like to see your propositions. Mr. Dicxson—They are contained in my letter to Mr. Weston—at least the gist ol them. Mr. Kinvarnick—t know hbaif a dozen men that would buy my property to-morrow, and run the risk of the right as I hold it, ‘Mr. Dickson—But if this matter is settled it will enhance the value of property and remove the cloud of doubt that hangs over the question of right just now. Our terms will be such as will ‘ive men who worked for us sufficient security of heir homes, Those who have not worked for us and who hold our property will be shown that we have rights, and that we shail maintain those rights. Youdo wrong in not trusting the con pany. What interest have we in turuing a sharp corner on you men ? Mr. MooNey—But you did turn a sharp corner on us already. We will call @ meeting to-night, aow- ever, and lay your terms belore the men. Mr. Dickson—We will prepare a paper to-mor- row, and we think the good sense oi the men of right from wrong when they see our terms. Mr. Moonsx—We have been laboring under @ cloud, For the past week it seemed to be “tease or no work; now you sav you wiil guarantee us security in our homes, with the first right to pum» chase, at moderate prices. Mr. Dickson—You wil submit those terms con- tained in my letter to your men. The prices we will submit to you at an eafly day, or, if you object to our dixing them, let three disinterested citizens do so. It ia for your interest to help us come to & speeuy conclusion, We, of course, will have to see What land vhere is and who has it. If youlet us Ox the prices we will see that you are satisfied. Some o! the men seemed satisfied to let the com- pany fix prices, but added that they were not au- thorized to make terms, and, w{ter thanking Mr. Dickson for hus courtesy, the deputation withdrew, THE METHODIST MINISTERS. —- The Evangelical Alliance and Eccl astical Arbitration—Temperance and Other Matters. According to previous announcement the Metto- dist ministers yesterday took up and discussed the question, Can the Evangelical Alitance be made more truly representative of Evangelical Protes- tantism? Dr. John M. Reid opened the discussion, addressing himself more especially to the speech ot Dr. Christlieb beiore the Alliance, in which that eminent scholar remarked that, if the American churches desirea to promote Christian unity they should keep their missionaries out of Germany and allow German Christians to carry the evangelization ' of their countrymen in theirown way. Dr, Reid was willing to concede to the Alliance all the good that its most ardent admirers could claim for it. He believed its influence was felt in this city even by those whose religion is made up largely of super- stition, He did not think, however, that American Christians, and especially the Methouist churches, would be doing their duty in leaving the formalism of the German Churen without bringing it into con- tact with the higher spiritual life of the Church in this country. In Germany people are made Chris- tians by baptism and confirmation, and as Church members thus made the State assigns to them cer- tain duties and allows them certain privileges, But they know little or nothing of the power or vital godlinesg in the soul, There were no Sunday schools in Germany until the Methodist Bpiscopal Church went thither. The German Church does not believe in THE WITNESS OF THE SPIRIT, but are we to refrain from preaching that doctrine because they don’t like it or don’t believe it? We can’t stay out of Germany, said the Docter, simply to leave the Lutheran Church there intact, when we know they have not the power of tnis salvation in their hearts. We can’t go among them without stirring up strife. We can’t go anywhere without doing this, We stir up opposition in Scandinavia, where our missionaries have been fined and 1m- prisoned and abused for preaching the truths of the Gospel as they believe them, Dr. Reid’! Carlsruhe, where, until the Methudisy Cour there, out of a population of 40,000 not 5,000 could be found who attended any church. The writer gave instances of persecution of evangelical minis- ters there and in other places and expressed his surprise at Doctor Christheb’s statement, and Added that Germany needs to-day everything of an evangelical stamp. Dr. Reid read also a trans- lation of an editorial in a secular paper published in Zarich, Switzerland, in which the writer gives his views concerning the good and evil o1 the Methodist MISSIONS In that and adjacent places, Dr. Reid continued, and, reterring to the union hoped for and foreshadowed by the Alliance, said he did not believe the Church would ever be one organically. While we may reach Christian unity Wwe shall never attain to organic union. He did not think Methodism would ever reach it, Nor did be ‘think such A UNION WOULD BE PROFITABLE. It had proved an injury to Canadian Methodism to be united with British eserentane Still the Doctor would not disparage the Alliance in any way: he hoped much from it. Dr, E, O. Haven believed the Alliance was an in- dication of great advances made by the Church within the last 25 years, but it ought todo much more in the next 25 years. What we want, he re- marked, is genuine charity. It was proper that men should meet; but it is not ensnay that they should meet year alter year, or decade after decade, and read compositions and adjourn. If Dr. Christlieb had these thoughts he ought to have uttered them, and we ought to utter our thoughts also if we differ with him, There should be AN UMPIRE OF CHURCHES, and all Christians should meet on one platform and discuss those things in which we do not agree, and let the umpire decide between us. The State is ahead of the Church in this and in many other read a letter from thé Marah och Wo in ‘ch Went things. Ivis ahead of the Church on the question of caste. It 1s ahead of us on the question of arbi- tration, The Doctor cited the settiement of the Alabama difficulties and the late Spanish trouble, and remarked that we should have an international court Of arbitration not only for all such matters of dispute but for ecclesiastical differences also, And he hoped to live to ,see the day when all disputes between nations will be ended in this way. And, he asked, shall the Church be bemnd the State in this matter ? No. Let us have a church of arbitra- tion! Let Dr. Christlicb and his iriends meet with us and give their reasons and we will give ours, and if the decision is against us we Will not go to Germany with our missionary appliances, What a Bpectacle it is to infidels and sceptics to see 12 diferent Churches in Italy! The Doctor saw zo need at all of having a Wesieyan Methodist Church there and a Methodist Episcopal Church also, We find fault, and justly too, with the Irish for bring- ing their Orange and Catholic quarreis to be settied or fought out here in this coantry, and yet we do the same thing ourselves in our missions. We ought to have union. One Church is as good as 40 on the same toundation. The Doctor combated the idea that extensive organization 1s er eae and remarked that this is not an American idea at all, We might as well have 26,000,000 members in the Methodist Episcopal Church here as 2,500,000, for they are all independent in local .churctes, eerste comprised in annual and general conierences. And when the representatives of the Church come together we ought to have a litte more than mere composi- tions, We have had a good many State conven- tions of late years, but only two have done any good. They have invariably ended with composi- tions and resolutions, Dr. Reid differed with his Brother Haven in nearly every statement he had made, He believed the Alliance was not mightier to-day than it was 25 years avd. He would not admit that the State 18 1n advance of the Church on moral questions, The State is more ‘ig It Kuows that negro hands can vote, and it therefore abolishes caste. The American Church, in all its branches, he said, is pecuilar, and the Methodist Episcopal Churen’ is different irom the Wesleyan; and he believed we are needed in Italy, The city marked, hag in it nothing but superstition, other parts of the kingdom are no better off. Touching the idea of ROCLBSIASTICAL ARBITRATION the Doctor did not see what could be settled by such & court or umpire, It could not settle or alter doctrines, ‘Ihe day of force has passed to give authority to edicts, and the only thing that could be done is to meet and amicably discuss questions of difference between us, and so elevate the sentiment of the Chureh until it shall come to @ point to see eye to eye. oy”, Haven saw no disagreement between his own views and tose of Dr, Reid, as he briefly demonstrated, Dr. Osbon spoke about the spirit of oppression which prevatied in the Church years ago, when he Was complained of ior walking arm in arm with Dr, Jacob W, Diller, an excellent Christian minis- ter, in the Protestant Episcopal Oharch. He thought that when the churches tn Germany and Italy came up to the spiritual level of the Amert- can churches we could then withdraw our mis- stonaries from those countries, but not before, Dr, Foss made reference to the ace Re of Pastor Emile Cook, who was on the Ville du Havre when t went down, and who reveaied noble Christian heroism during and after that disaster, Mr, Aaron M. Powell mace some remarks on temperance aud distributed blank petitions for SUL AbUCE, WESTCHESTER ANNEXATION. Serious Legal Barriers to a Financial Settlement Betwe: the Two Co ties—How Westchester legally Issued $159,536 in Bounty Bonds. The dimiculties growing out of a settlement be tween the countues of New York and Westchester seem to increase rather whan diminish as the Com- mittee of Conlerence between the respective Boards of Supervisors pursue their investigations a8 to what proportion of the debt of Westchester shall be assumed by New York under the annex- ation of West Farms, Morrisama aud Kingsbriage. An adjourned meeting of the Sub-Committee of Conference was held last evening, atthe residence of Supervisor Ottendorfer, in East Seventeeuth Street, but no basis of adjustment was arrived at, It 18 the opinion of the committee that special legis- lation wiil be necessary owing to the delects in the statute making annexauon @ fixed fact. — It is clearly the opinion of some of the New York Super- visors that the law authorizing the issue of $169,535 bounty bonds by Westchester county, on bebali of the towns annexed by the law—which Westchester expects New York under the terms of annexation to assume and pay into the Westchester county treasury—is not binding, They find in chapter 133, Laws of 1864, that instead of the county issuing the bonds, as they nave done, the act (section 2) au. thorizes the ‘Town Auditors of the respective towns to issue them on the credit of their respective towns; the act authorizes the levy and collection of a tax by the County Supervisors upon the towns to meet the principal and interest, but the coun authorities do not handle the sums 80 collected. When colleclea by the town collectors it 1s to be paid to the supervisors of the respective towns for disbursement, ‘The sale of the bonds is also vested in the Supervisor of each town, and not in the county authorities, Westchester ciaims that New York must pay into their treasury the principal and interest of these bounty bonds, while the law clearly vests no power in the Westchester county authorities beyond the levy and collection of the tax to meet tie bonds and interest at maturity. Colonel Pinckuey, Clerk of the Boare of Supervisors, yesterday telegraphed to Cierk Charles K. Johuson, ofthe Westchester Board of Supervisors, to tor- ward a@ statement of the authority under wh:ch these first and second issues of bounty bonds were put upon the market. THE DONNELLY HOMICIDE, Post-Mortem, Examination, Deputy Coroner Marsh yesterday made a post- mortem examination at the Morgue on the body of Patrick Donnelly, the lad alleged to have been killed by his aunt, Rosa Riley, at 217 West Twenty- eighth street. The doctor found »ruises on botn legs and thighs, bruises on the upper part of the chest, on the left side, bruises on right side of chest, seven small abrasions of the neck, several @brasions of skin on right side or face, contusions on right temple and forehead, a bioody tumor of scalp at the the base of the head, a small amount of blood extravasated over the middle of occipital and bagereehh: Portion of leit parietal bone, a small fissure existed in the occipital and rigit parictal bones, A small amount of rbiood was extravasated between the dura mater and the skull, im the immediate vicinity of the former. Opening the chest, the leit pleural cavity was found to contain half a pint of blood; @ small tear existed intne apex of the left lung; botn lungs were conjested. Death, in the Doctor's opinion, was due to shock from injuries and internal hem- orrhage. Coroner Young will hold an inquest in the case to-day. EARL BUSSBLL AND THE POPE, (From the Pall Mall Gazette, Dec. 15] Sir George Bowyer has sent for publication, with Earl Russell’s permission, the correspondence which has passed between the noble Earl and him- seli on the subject of his lordship’s consent to take the chair at a meeting to express sympathy with tne policy of Prince Bismarck against Kome. In answer to Sir George’s remonstrance against such a proceeding Earl Russell wrote the following letter:— Pemsroxe Lopes, Richmond Park, Dec 4, 1873. Dear Sin Georck Bowren—I am very ‘sorry to from you in the step which I have taken of consenting to:preside at a meeting at which it will be proposed to express our sympathy with the Kmperor of Germany in the declaration he has made in his letter to the Pope. I concetye that the time has come, foreseen by Sir Robert 41, when the Romah Uatholle Churc aims and Will pe satisfied with nothing but ascend- ‘o this ascendancy, openly asseried to extend to all baptized persons, and therefore including our Queen, the Prince ‘of Wales, our bishops and clergy, I refuse w submit. The autonomy of Ireland ts asserted at Rome. I decline the Pope’s temporal rule over Treland. re- main yours, very truly, J LL. In a subsequent letter Rarl Russell exprésses his opinion that sir George has forgotten the part which the whigs took tn redressing the legitimate grievances of Koman Catholics. MR. JOHN BRIGHT ON “THE RESIDUUM." A Lancashire paper publishes a letter purporting to come from Mr, Jonn Bright in answer to a re- quest that he would state whether and upon what occasion he had called workingmen “the resid- um,” The assertion that he had done so on some éasion had been @&de by aclergyman named Read. The following is said to be the text of Mr, ’ 4 ils Bright's reply: ene a Rd gp Par doa Rocnpaxr, Dec. 9.

Ido not remember the time whtn or the speech in which I used the word “residuum,” or I would refer you to the passage. You would at once see how utterly unjust and talse is the construction which Mr. Read has put upon it. Ido not know what Mr. Read is in his pulpit, but | would advise him to stay there, where he cannot be contradicted.
