Tho iA'hlRh Valley rnllroad has never be fore been able to reach further thun Avoca with Its pussenger service, which Is sevi'n mllts from Scranton. A short time ago, suys tho Wllkcs-ilarre Record, the com pany opened Its lino for passenger Unf ile on the west side of the Lackawunnu river from Coxton, and rune two trains each wuy dally. Already II Is a source of great convenience to the residents in the vllluKcs on tho West Side, and It brings the Valley within live miles of tho city of Scranton. The terminus of tho roud Is Sibley mines, near Remlhum, Lackawanna county. It has been rumored that Coxe Bros, & Co. Is to pass Into 'he hands of other In terests, the transfer being u part of the anthracite coal dual. Tlieje facts can neither be contlrmed nor denied. At tho time of the Iteadlng-Lehlgh Valley-Jersey Central combine a price was placed upon the property by the owners, but wus regarded us too high by Mr, Maxwell and others. Since that time Coxe Bros, mado a favorable contract with the Lehigh Val ley, enabling It to reach tidewater from ts mines through an Independent haul. It has also developed its property, Increased its output and grown materially In value. Wllkes-Barre Record: "The project to build a hotel and electric branch at Mt. Lookout, back of Wyoming, Is again being revived, and the projectors say It is not all wind this time. Tha men .Interested are John Graham of the traction company, Builder Phil Raito, Chris Stegnialer and John A. Hltchlns. The hotefwlll not be built this year, but a traction branch will be constructed from the West Plttston branch, which runs through Wyoming, to the mountain. It will run out . Eighth street to Shoemaker avenue, and to the knob by an easy grade. The line will bo completed about August. Mt. Lookout Is one of the highest points In the valley, and the view from It Is very pretty. Wyoming camp ground Is only u mile and a half away, and the electric line will be extended to that place by a gravity road. The anthracite coal producing compa nies last week displayed a little more ac tivity, and the result was a heavier output tnan for the preceding weeks of the month. In the first four days of May shipments aggregated 526,492 tons, an Increase over the same period lost year of 106.752 tons for the week ended May 11 the outout reached 784,982 tons, a decrease of 72,36) tons, and last week the production amounted to 817,523 tons, a decrease of 139,701 tons. The result of the operations lor me past eighteen days of May, there' fore, was an output of 2.128.997 tons, or 13D. 701 tons less than for the same Derlod last year. The average production so far has been H8.Z77 tons per day, and If continued to the end of the month would leave a total for May of 8.666,587 tons, or only a siiin.il tonnage in excess or the agreed out put. While last week's shipments were somewhat larger than those of the preced ing weea, iney were 174.098 tons less than for the same week last year. The decrease was uue to the Wyom tier and Lehlch r, glons, the Schuylkill region reporting an iiiuretuje oi d(3 ions. STROUDSBURG.
