The Truly Good Treasurer of Uew Lisbon Only 9,000 Short ALL THE SEWS FROM 3EAR-BT TOWJfB rsrECLU, TZXEGUXM TO TBX SISri.TCB.1 Coxx em.sviixe, April 11. The Courier's coke review will say to-morrow: The coke trade continues to fluctuate! Pro duction and shipments Btiil Tary from week to week, but the general average is dropping slowly but steadily downward. Production . for the past three months shows a steady de cline. Shipments have fluctuated more, and the daily average for March is slightly in excess of that for February, though the production is vice versa. There does not seem to be any assurance of an improvement in the situation before fall, if then. A well Lnuwn operator expresses the opinion that there will be no improvement In the trade dur ing the present year. The iron trade continues flat and unprofitable and gives no promise of improvement this summer. In the East many furnaces are shutting down, but in the West the coke burnlnc furnaces are most all in blast. There is a gradual and reluctant blowing oat of ovens in the ConnellSTille region on the part of the operators, whose orders keep their plants going only partially, and there Is consequently a gradual increase in the number of idle ovens and idle men. but-better times for the balance ol the ovens and the remaining men. The lively cuttins in prices has ceased for the present, but it is likely to break forth afresh the latter part of this month. It was stated in a Pittsburg paper the other day t hat a movement was afoot among the larger opera tors to reorganize the old syndicate, but the rumor proves to be without foundation, morc's the pity. The operation of the 77 coke plants of the Connellsville recion for the week ending on Saturday last, shows 11,180 ol the 13,166 com pleted ovens in blat and 1,986 idle, against U, 457 active and l,b03 idle the previous w eek. BAD BOY BURGLARS. A Band That lias Been Rudely Disturbing it Quiet Community. rSFZCiat. TELEGRAM TO TUX DISrATCH.l FEXFIEI.D, April 1L For more than a year many citizens of this quiet community have been severely annoyed on account of many losses of -various articles of value, taken from their residences and stores. These robberies have usually been committed in the early part of the evening, and in all parts of town, show ing conclusively that the perpetrators are an organized band who have been constantly an the alert for opportunities for Blunder. Their mode of operations has been to watch closely, and when the mefcbers of the family are out, usually at church, tbey quietly enter the house and pick up what valuables they can get hold of and make their exit. In this way they have accumulated a considerable amount of money, jewelry, revolvers, razors, cartridges and num erous other articles of almost all kinds. On last Sunday evening H. L. Avery's resi dence was entered while they were at church and several articles were taken, including Mrs. Avcrj's wedding ring. On Jionday Dwight Avery, the oldest sou. and another young man took upon themselves (he role of amateur de tectives and made an investigation, which re sulted in the discovery of many of the stolen articles and the arrest of the 17-year old son of Mr. Hewitt, a prominent and wealthy citizen. The lad stoutly dented his guilt,but finally said that a year ago two men, one of whom be named and who is a property owner here, but recently moved to Canada, had called a lot ot the boys together, ranging in ages from 15 to 18 j ears, had formed them into an organized band of robbers, and had exacted of them fearful oaths of secrecy. He would not expose the other members of the gang. Three more boys have been arrested and warrants issued for three or four more. Tbe parties arrested were all promptly bailed by their friends.

Thomas B, Eey nolds, a prominent business man and lessee of the Sterling-Webster Abstract Company, has disappeared ftsm the city. His son, Thomas J. Beynolds, said to-day: The only explanation of my father's absence I can offer is financial embarrassment and pos sibly temporary insanity. The money he owes was loaned him by personal friends, and I be lieve that as be found he could not pay them that be could not bear to meet them. I do not know what ho borrowed the money for, nor how it was lost. He bad a very large family to keep up, and a very expensive family. He does not owe any bills so far as I can ascertain. The debts to his personal friends will, I think, amount to as much as $15,000. I do not know that he speculated. Ho never told us anything about his business, and not one of the family knew that be was at all embarrassed until after he was gone. His failure does not affect the Sterling-Webster.Abstract Company. A CRACK IN THE WALL. The New Allegheny High School Building la Sinking. The magnificent new High school building in Allegheny, in course of erection, has cracks which discount those in the West inghouseand Petroleum Exchange buildings. The new structure is almost completed, but several ugly breaks in the stonework have given rise to the report that the building is not sub stantial. The breaks occur in the stonework In the first story and were caused by a sinking of the building. One of the contractors in speaking of the matter last night said: "All the buildings erected along Sherman avenue lately have sunk on account of the gravel and sand founda tion. The High school building sunk about an inch, but there is no indication af bad work manship. The stones-tbat were broken will bs replaced, and I think the building when com pleted will be the finest in Allegheny county." Don't Be Like Moses.
