BOLD, BADJOTAYIllEN.
An Officer Must Guard the Ecranton and
Ptttaton Express.
Albert Slyer, proprietor of the
Scranton and Pittston express, and
driver of the team wbicb makes the
d'dly round ttip between this city and
FittstoD, will today nave for a Dassen-
ger a deputy marshal, or some other
legal ruuotionary empowered to aot if
necessary, in the county of Luzerne,
Eold, bad highwaymen have been
plotting to deprive the pilot of the
Scranton and Pittston express of his
teni, or rather one of thospirited pair.
The knights of tbe road are not of the
Dick Turpin stamp; they are of the av.
erage calibre of Ameriean citizens, and
tbe necessity of a gnard about tbe
lonely express Is occasioned by tueb an
nnrouiBntlo fact as a "hoss" trade.
Several weeks ago Mr. Myers traded
horses with a party from Pittston, wbo
was the authored agent of another
person. Mr. Myers gave $10 difference
between the two animals, but after
ward learned that the third party had
only received $3. Now the Pittston
iao has sonred on the bargain and has
evinced tbe desire to waylay the Scran,
ton expressman and secure tbe traded
"boa."
Last evening Mr, Myers was hunt
ing for Dxputy Marshal Scanlon to
guard him along tbe dustv highway
and put the bad robbers to flight.
Meanwhile tbe "hoss" world is hold
ing iti breath and wondering if today's
trip will end in disaster or glory.

ITS RECORD FOR A HALF MILE
It Had Made It in a Minute and It Was
Expected to Make a Mile in Two
Minutes Mr. Jermyn Says the
Death of the Animal Means a Loss
to Him of $100,000 The Trainer
Is Almost Crazed with Grief.
Frank Jertuyu, of this city, sustaiued
a seveie lose Monday nig lit through
tbe burning of a stable ut Medfotd, a
suburb of Boston, wbicb contained his
promising trotter, Ctnizo, which he
hud on Monday refused fS.i.OUO for.
Tbe dispatches received by Mr- Jer
rayn yesterday do not give the details
8 to tbe cause or the tire simply con
talning tbe announcement that tbe nu
imal was burned to death and that the
trainer, a young man namod Wilson.
was almost craz-d with grief over tne
unfortunate nftair.
The manager of the stables besought
Mr. Jermyn to telograpli Wilson thut
tie neia mm blameless rur tbe burning,
for it was feared that the young uiau's
reason would become dethroned
through brooding over the matter. He
bad been Caruzo's constant attendant
for two yearn and was mucb attached
to the animal.
TUHCIIASED TWO YEARS AOO.
The hore was purchased by .Mr.
,iermvn two year' ago as a yearling in
Kentucky for ." 000. Carazo's dam
was Happy Sluliuui, whose mother
produced JUasey Loo, bince ne De
cline owner cf the horse, Mr. Jermyn
baa given it the m st earful truiuing.
It developed wonderful speed and eh
durance, but nothing was noised
abroad of its wonderful performances.
Tbe intention was to astonish the
world when it made its debut on tbe
mce track. In private the horse had
made a half utile in a minute, and it
was confidently expected that it would
make a mile ou the track in two min
utes. Carazo was being prepared for ship
ment to Grand Kapids, Mich., to take
part in its nist race when the nre oo
curred that ended tbe career of the
noble animal. There was a small in
turunce on Ctirnzo, but not anything
liko enough to compensate Mr. Jermyn
for the treat loss he has sustained.
V UAT Jilt. JERMYN SAY'S.
"The death ot Carazo is not only a
loss to me hut l brruly believe it is a
tfreat loss to the turf sitid frank Jer
myn last evening when questioned
about the horse by a Ikibukk reporter.
"It was a really wonderful animal and
I am satisfied tbat its work would have
created the greatest furore in trotting
circles of any horse for years. 1 don't
believe its equal lives today. That
was the opinion of everyone wbo saw
119 performance on tbe track.
'I inn sure that within a week it
would have held all troting records
aud Scrautou would have had the dis
tinction of being tbe home of tbe king
of the tnrf. Its death means a loss of
$100,000 to me. I have telegraphed to
Wilson, the trainer, not to let this at
fair weigh heavily on bis mind for I
will have another horse like Carazo if
money can obtain him "
MEDICAL SOCIETY MEETING.
Interesting Faptr Bead by Dr. Connor
on the Human Emotions.
Although it was the Lackawanna
County Medical society that met there,
which organization is generally sup
posed to bo exceedingly grave, digni
fied and serious, the gloomy walls ot
the coroner s olhce last night resounded
with the merry deliberations of that
society. President Williams called
the meeting to order and after tbe
adoption of last meeting's minutes, tbe
preliminary order of business was
taken nu and passed.
Drs. Miller and Mutchler, ofStrouds-
burg, sent in their applications for ad
uiUaion to the society. There is an ar
ticle in the by-laws whiah says that
only those physicians who are reiidents
of Lackawanna county are eligible to
membership. This section wss amended
at last night's meeting si tbat physi
cians from outside counties can be ad
mitted.
Dr. Connor, the secretary, read a
paper on ''The Human Emotions,"
whicu received mucb praise from those
present. It treated of the effect of f x
ternal tens ition on the nervous sys
tem and tbe effect that it produces
upon a patient. A discussion followed
which whs engaged in by Drs. Weblau,
Rea and Heath. Two bills were read
and ordered paid. Dr. 3. II. Kierstead
was balloted for aud unanimously ad
mitted to membership.
Dr. Parke read a communication
from Librarian Carr, of the Albright
library. At the last meeting of the
Medical society, Drs Gardner, Burnett,
Parke and Gates were appointed a com
mittee to tender to tbe trustees of the
Albright library the use of tbe collec
tion of books in possession of the medi
cal society, known as tbe "Throop Li
brary,
Tbe communication read last night
from Librarian Cifr accepted the gift
of the meilicul society. The commu'ii
cation BtAted that tbe society could
place among the books in the Albright
Memorial building the "Throop LI
brary" and any subsequent additions
to it which may be wade. Tbe gift
was acceptod for a period of three
years with the privilege of renewal for
the next two years. The said books
are for ref -renoe only and can be re
moved from tbe building only npon an
order from tbe Medical society. The
question of deciding who shall be en
titled to tbe privilege of removing
such books from tbe library and also
other matters pertaining to tbe sub
ject, were laid over until the next
meeting,
Dr. Rea introduced the matter of
the annual summer onting of the so
ciety. Several places were suggested
and finally all agreed upon holding it
at Farview. . Through courtesy to
ward four members wbo belong to tbe
Thirteenth regiment, wbicb orgauiza
tion will be at camp dnring the week
in which occurs the date of tbe next
regular meeting of tbe society, tbe
second Tnesday in August, tbe date of
tbe next meeting waa changed to the

WORST TROUBLE IS OVER.
Wholesale Meat Dealers Believe They
Will Have no Further Trouble in
Supplying the Demand.
The outlook among the local whole,
sale und retail meat dealers was some
what brighter yesterday.
A visit to the'offl -es of the Scranton
aud Stowers Packing companies found
that each concern bus a supply on band
iquivalent to the demand. They nre
not receiving any shipments from Chi
cago; their orders, however, nre being
filled by firms in Kansas City and
Omaha. It takes two days louger for
the shipments to reach here, and it
also enthils more expense iu freight.
This makes the price of their products
deurer by from li to 3 cents per pound.
These bouses expect no trouble in sup
plying the dwnian !s from their trade.
Ti e wholesale fresh meat dealers are
not receiving any meat from Chicago.
Their orders are filled at Kansas City,
St. Louis, Hammond and Omaha, and
they are not worrying over tneir abil
ity to supply the demand from retail
butchers, Tbe wholesale men nre more
or less governed by the prices in the
New York and Philadelphia markets.
At the latter places the price of meat
per pound has advaucsd 2 to4cenls
per pound. The wholesaler bave
raised tbe prices an average of 3 cents
per pound while tbe retail butchers are
still keeping the old prioes.
Some of tbe smaller retail dealers
are not buying much meat, because
there is no profit iu it for them. This
is noticed more in tbe suburbs where
tbe butcher wagons make two or three
road trips a week. Tbe retail butchers
are scouring the surrounding country
for native beef; but tbe owners are
holding out for high prices.
The sentiment of tbe wholesalers is
to the effect that tbe worst trouble
for tbem is over and unless the strike
lasts some time and tbe tie-up be
comes general, there will be no further
trouble in meeting the demand.
