On arilving nt Mauch Chunk at half

A Note from l'arryvllle. '
Dkaii Editoh, I.ahUu for. it. nbw.
I suppose. Two weeks ago an aitlqicj
written by your humble, servant ap
peared in your paper in regard to Par
ryvlllo lock up or as your correspon
dent "Serious" Bays I am pleased to
call It "Jug." I did not think It was
going to bo so hard for somo ut the
"law abiding people second to nono In
State," to swallow, (I mean tbo article
not the lock Up); there Is'just where I
missed It. Ho goes on to say that It Is
news to him to hear that Parryvio Is a
borough, Cheeso It, "Seilous," dmw
It mild, wo know what you orb hinting
at perhaps every body dtd not know
It all. Ho also says that it is my brief
"that wo can not havo a'bbrough wl(h
out a lock up, or a Jug, perhaps he Is
correct. Let mo ask hlut a question :
What was tho first business tho Town
Council cussed aud discussed ? Nothing
moro or less than the aforesaid lock up
or "J'ig." Alut I right, eh? Now
does It not look llko as. If soma, ono else
besides myself thought the same, name
ly, that a borough was not n borough
without a lock up? Ho ends his epistle
by saying, "I tako Such nu Interest In
their attalrs." Dot's ho want ino to bo
llevelio U ono of tha Town Council by
saving their affairs? for ho must nut
i forget that I am ono of thnsn"!aw abld
1 lug people second to nono In tho State."

T!r0-pniT.iJi7.T;frtrdgTrrrfrvoT.iay
last, In f peaking of the condition of
thu'cbnl trade, says: As" wo can re
pbittio adjustment of, tho 'differences
between tho coal operators and the
working people nt tho mine, wo ot
course havo no change to report In Iho
coal trade, which remains almost pre
.clsely the samo as reported a weak ago.
The lawloss turbulonco In tho Schuyl
kill and Lehigh coal regions reported
dally In' our news columns shows no
signs of abatement. Thcro Is no coal
mining in, either region bf any conse.
quence, nnd tho supply Is necessarily
"becoming very limited. What,""howov
?r; was stocked.pypr, of lost year's coal
and what Is"bplug produ'ced'ln part of
the Wyoming and In tho Shauioktn re
glons,- has. thus far served to prevent c
coal famine or famluo pieces of coal.
As tho demand for current consumption
continue;, light a cJoso economy lu tho
Uso of anthracite coal and an Increased
uso of bituminous coal havo kept prices
.steady. Special kinds ot coal nnd of
particular sizes may have been advanced
In somehow Instances', but the genoral
market Is unchanged In supply and de.
mand and also in prices. Tho assochv
ted carrying companies, although they
liavo issued no tcala of prices for tho
mouth of April, adhere, so far as we
can leant, to thoso announced. Wo seo
tho Intimation '"sometimes thrown out
that the present suspension of coal pro
duction is with tho connivance nud en
couragement of tho coal operators, with
the view of affording ppportnnlty to en
tirely clear, tho market of last ycar.'s
ver supply. It Is possible that strikes
and suspensions of production may,
somo time In thejiast, havo been char
acterized by somo such collusion and
Juggle, but wo aro quiet confident that
nothing of tho.sort enters Into tho pres
ent disputo and unsettled condition of
tho authrlclto tradd., In tho bituminous
coal regions thcro nro unusual efforts
making to press tho largest amount of
that coal posslb'o Into the market."
HaZ.'eton, Pa.. April 7. Early this
morning it fire was discovered fn'No. 1
slnpo, in Stockton, two miles below
here, which, it is feared, will do great
damage.uiilcss tho tlanius can be speed-.
Ily checked. The mechanics from tlio
shops of tho company nnd the clerks in
the store wc-ro sent down to tho slope to
assist tho few men left In collieries, but
to-day the nro seemed to bo spreading,
and It was thought that' the solid coal
In tho breast had beeu reached by tho
flames. Tho liro originated from heat
generated in making steam for n pump,
and a hoisting engine, and somo looso
coal or wood at tho (0p of tho Hue be
came Incited, and thus communicated
tho Haines to looso coal In tho mine. It'
was thought that iho miners nt Stock
ton would havo offered their assistance
to put out the fire, nnd somo we're thus
disposed, but tho branch of tho M. and
L. B. A. ot Stockton hold a meeting
