Big Mortgage Filed Sparks Coal Lands Rivalry
A fierce contest between New York Central and Buffalo Rochester & Pittsburgh interests over Indiana county coal lands heats up as NY Central buys in Center and Blacklick townships. BR&P files a mortgage of over 2,000,000 on Jefferson and Clearfield holdings across Armstrong and nearby townships, covering about 15,000 acres of coal and related property valued well beyond the mortgage. Funds will finance expansion as BR&P seeks more territory through this leverage.

Body of former Rossiter coal superintendent found floating
The body of W. J. Broadmeadow, formerly superintendent of the Clearfield Bituminous Coal Corporation mines at Rossiter, was found floating in the Hast river at New York last week. He was identified by brother-in-law Charles H. Bunn. Broadmeadow, though in good finances, is said to have worried over domestic troubles. In her will, Martha Newry of Conemaugh township apportions her possessions to relatives, including gold watch and chain to niece Martha Arnold, furniture to nieces, and funds to education for James N. Nowry’s children. The will directs sale of real estate and division of proceeds among named heirs. The document ends with executor Ramusl Art.
