THE EVERlLoiis" FOURTH.
List of Today's Attractions Which
Were Ushered in By Fiery Fusi
lades Last Nia;ht.
"Merey, mercy me," said officer
Martin Gurrell, the veteran of the
police force while standing at the cor
ner of Lackawanna and Franklin
avenues, at an early hour this mirniug
as a dyuamite firecracker exploded a
few feet above bis head and a sky
scraping rocket shot up into spice from
the opposite side of the s'ruot.
"Really, this is oue of the loudest,
most Here you young rascal,
if rou 11! x another bomb down that
cellarway." But the veteran's words
were swallowed up ia the coin lined din,
fire aud confusion fef innumerable
bangs, booms and thunder of "dyna
miter" and the sizzlitig squirm of the
festive eud toariug rocket.
And so the noise continue through
out the eity. Residents of the hill oc
cupied front porches and other points
of vantage until early moruiug, watch
ing the pyrotechnic display and listen
ing to the nniniillhd chorus.
Occa6ionilly a young America would
bo seen nursing a burued finger, and
otiou seek to again remind himself of
tbe ever-glorious Declaration of 1770
aud tbe man who was father of his
country. Up to a late hour, however,
uo serious accidents had bsen reported.
Aside from the resondant urausa
meut of last night and more of the
same diversion tonight there is enough
in the way of aiauscmsut today to
satisfy the most exacting.
Probably tbe greatest attraction
will be the bicyole races this afternoon
at the Driving park, preceeded by tbe
parade at 10 30 o'-clock this morning.
Base ball enthusiasts will witness
tbe ll'izieton Scranton State league
base ball games at Hogan park, morn
ing and afternoon.
Tho Caledonians pnrade tbia morning
mid their games aud picnic at Laurel
Hill park during tbe afternoon and
evening will be the attraction for
Scotchmen particularly.
Mnny who wish to spond the day out
siile the city will attend the eisteddfod
at Lake Ariel.
At Sanderson's park, Green Itidge,
the congregation of St. Paul's church
will have a picnio and patriotic exer
cises The Declaration of Independ
ence will be read and lion. T. V. Pow
derly will deliver an address.

from the Union stockyards at Chlcaso:
"Hold for better pricas. New York 10,

A. L. Francois, of the Scranton Bsof

for sale. Notwithstanding this state of
uffuirs, nearly all the city butchers have
secured enough buof to list until after
Thursday. Tbe hotels also will be sup
plied and it is not expected that the
retailors will increase prices before
this afternoon or tomorrow.
It could not he learned yesterday that
the strike bus in any way art.toted the
local prodtico and grain markets. Few
it any produce dealers buy western
butter or eggs at this season of the yotr
and garden truck is received from the
South or from nearby localities.
FIUCE OF FLO OK NOT AFFECTED.
Prices of tbur, wlmnt, oils, etc.,
have not yet boon affjoted, nor is it
likely that they will b uuless the strike
is prolonged ut leust two weeks. Grain
men send out their western orders for
the first of each month several weeks
iu advance nud the July supply is
either received or is east of the lakes.
Fruit dealers, probably, are making
a richer harvest in consequeuce of the
strike than uny other clsss of whole
sulo dealers. No California fruit, euc'i
as peaches, pears, plums and cherries,
have been received, and consequently
the prices for oranges, bananas and
southern fruits have increased. The
benefit to the frnit men is owing to two
reasons, particularly: First, because
California fruit is very perishable; sec
ondly, because the buying price of ba
nanas aud oranges has been lowered
owing to a recent fruit handlers strike
in southern districts. The result is that
this year Is witnessing the best trade
for the first weekiu July that has been
known in yeurs,
Of bam, bacon and salted, c.muel
and dried meats the local supply is am
ply adequate for several weeks unless
aold to the empty markets of the large
eastern eities.
