TIIE SCRANTON THIETTN'E iMUNDAT MOKOTNG. OCTOBER 15,' 1894.. Industrial and MKE, MILL AND RAILROAD. i The Inquiry for coal has improved somewhat. The cool weather of the past week has Induced householders to buy more freely; at the same time dealers are receiving coal on old or ders, so that they feel no urgent need of making new contracts Just now. Owing to this the market has been rather more quiet than many optimis tic sellers expected. The Improvement In the demand has been chiefly in the way of orders for prompt delivery, and the buyer has gone chiefly to middle men, who are not overburdened with scruples as to selling coal below the May circular. After a careful canvas of the trade the Englneeringand Mining Journal finds that the companies are not doing much cutting now. Nor are the very low prices which obtained three weeks ago so easy to get now. The free burning coals, owing to the character of the sellers, chiefly Inde pendent operators, may be had at less than the May circular, but the compa nies are not shading to any extent. They are adhering to the prices estab lished at the last meeting more closely than for months past There is a widespread belief that owing to the small supplies laid in by consumers thus far, the trade from now on will be more active than usual. It Is true that people have been more backward in laying in winter supplies, and that they will have to buy more coal In November and December, unless the winter Is exceptionally mild, than they have been wont to do in former years. At the same time the tendency to econo mize in fuel as In other articles of home consumption Is so much greater than ububI this year that producers cannot afford to disregard it. It will take some time to exhaust the stocks in the hands of the dealers and of middlemen. If the sales agents are to get the official prices this year they munt, in the opin ion of the Engineering and Mining Jour nal, so regulate their output that there must at no time from now hence forth be any dangerous accumulation of stocks In their storage depots. A movement is on foot to establish through sleeping car service between New York and San Francisco, using the Pennsylvania between New York and Washington, the Southern railway be tween Washington and Atlanta, and the Louisville and Nashville between Atlanta and New Orleans, where con nection will be made with the South ern Pacific. The distance to cover Would be 3,963 miles, and the proposed running time 11,7 hours, which is twelve hours less than the present time from New York to San Francisco. The Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Coal company have started the erection of a new breaker at the Bliss colliery that is being sunk in their vir gin coal field, near Nanticoke. The Auchlncloss, another shaft, Is also being sunk one-fourth of a mile, near Nanti coke. The abutments for the new breaker and engine houses are ready. They were compelled to sink twelve feet through a loamlng soil before they found a solid foundation. The lumber, says the Record, is already on the ground and the carpenters are engaged In preparing it. It will be one of the largest breakers In the country. It is four hundred yards from where the old Hanover breaker stood, operated by Charles Parrlsh, which was burned down after being struck by lightning. The new colliery will employ 1,000 peo ple. The sinking operations are sus pended for a few weeks In order to get machinery In readiness to complete the work. The work Is in charge of Super intendent Carey. John P. and William Evans, of Dorranceton, have closed a contract with the Delaware, Lacka wanna and Western Coal company, to open a slope 1,300 feet In length, at the Bliss mines, near Nanticoke. These gentlemen have Just completed a simi lar slope at the Woodward mines, 3,000 feet In length, which they did without an accident. William Hardy, of Hazleton, had a summons In assumpsit Issued Friday against the Lehigh Valley Railroad company for $5,000 damages. The pa pers In the case cover a novel point, and the suit will no doubt attract much at tention. Mr. Hardy alleges in his state ment that, on Nov. 11, 1872, he pur chased a lot in Hazleton of the com pany. The deed for the premises re served the right to hold and mine all coal and other minerals, and also coven anted that the surface earth should not be broken, cut or misplaced In the re moval of the mineral underneath; and that any damage done would be made good by the Lehigh Valley Railroad company. The plaintiff alleges that, by agreement with the company, Arlo Par dee & Co. removed the minerals, and, that. In 1892 a cave occurred taking With It a dwelling house and broom factory. He claims, that by this sink ing, the surface was damaged to the extent of $1,000, and the house and broom factory to the extent of $4,000, and claims that amount. For gome time past there have been rumors prevalent that a rich And of gold had been discovered in Carbon county at a place in the vicinity of Penn Forest and on a tract of land owned by a num ber of gentlemen, among whom are Ezra Newharr, William Schaeffer, the Charles Bower estate, Charles W. Horn, of Slatlngton; William G. Frey man, of Mauch Chunk, and M. T. and Simon Walck, of Franklin. The name under which these gentlemen are work ing Is the Penn Forest Coal and Mining company, and they have been pushing the work for some time. Recently a good vein of coal was struck and this encouraged the company to still further prosecute their claims, with the result that their ardor has been still further Increased by flndinggold quartz samples sent to an assay office at both Philadel phia and Denver, Col., showed gratifying results, and a member of the company, speaking to a representative of the Lehighton Journal, said that work was still being vigorously pushed and all Indications pointed to paying re sults. The Lehigh and Wilkes-Barre sur veyors have completed measurements for the sinking of slope No. 14 at Pleas ant Hill to the Buck Mountain vein. This slope has been in operation about two years and is sunk on the north pitch of the big vein. To reach the Buck Mountain will necessitate the cut ting of at least 130 feet of rock and the new opening will be continued from the bottom of No. 14 into the seam here tofore mentioned, developing a . new that one dozen bottles of CHE GENUINE MMT EXTRACT WITHOUT BEING INTOXICATING ? Beware of Imitations . LOOK FOR MCNATUftl s Commercial. coal territory that could not be reached in another way. With the new slope driven and 'this reserve depositof valua ble anthracite developed, 200 mine cars will be dally hoisted to the surface. The coal that will be obtained In the new slope may constitute No, 4 break er's principal supply for years, after other subterranean openings have been exhausted. Harry C. Brodhead's name has been mentioned in connection with the Le high Coal and Navigation company's presidency. Apropos, the Wilkes Barre Record says: His grandfather, James Brodrlck, was one of the first contractors at Summit Hill In 1820, and he entered the Bervlce of the company In 1871 at Wanamle. In 1873 he whs made superintendent of the company's property at Plymouth and his success ful career as a superintendent of the Lehigh and Wilkes-Barre Coal com pany has made him quite prominent as a coal man, and his success as a finan cial man would recommend him to the company in every way as one fitted to take the place of E. B. Lelsenrlng, de ceased. MINOR INDUSTRIAL NOTES: The Illinois Central has withdrawn from the Western Passenger associa tion. The Yorktown colliery worked only seventeen hours laBt week and the same amount of time week before last. General E. Burd Grubb has placed a $100,000 6 per cent, mortgage upon his share of the famous ore banks near Lebanon. Second Vice President Robert H. Sayre, of the Lehigh Valley railroad, celebrated his seventieth birthday on Saturday . So far this month the collieries at South Sugarloaf, No. 3 and Laurel Hill have worked but three days, while Cranberry and Hazleton mines have done but little better. . The large shovel works of H. M. Myers & Co., at Beaver Fals, employ ing several hundred hands, which have been idle for weeks past on account of lack of orders, will resume today. Secretary of Internal Affairs Stew art will lBsue a warant to the Rockhlll Iron company, of Huntington, for a valuable coal tract on Broad Top mountain. T. W. Moore contested the claim. On Nov. 1 W. H. Russell becomes the consulting ent'ineer of the Boston and Albany, and Walter Shepard, of Boston, becomes the chief engineer, he, for sev eral years past, having been assistant chief engineer. Announcement has been made of the appointment of Norman E. Sprowl as master mechanio for the Central Rail road company at Phlllipsburg shops, Phillipsburg, N. J. Mr. Sprowl was formerly located at Ashley. It is again reported that ex-Presl-dent McLeod, of the Reading, has finally succeeded In enlisting the co operation of President Wilbur and his friends In getting himself elected to the presidency of the Lehigh Valley. This report is getting to be somewhat ancient. Brakemen on the Lehigh Valey trains have been In the habit of carelessly un coupling cars and 'allowing the air hose to be pulled apart, instead of uncoupling that also by hand. Super intendent Esser serves notice on them that anyone caught doing so hereafter will be. disciplined. The exports of the leading articles of trade from the United States for the month of September show a de crease of $10,120,124, or 23 8-10 per cent, in value, as compared with the corre sponding month of last year, the fall ing off having been principally in the item of breadstuffs, wheh figured for $9,606,379 less than last year. The Hallstead Temperance League has received invitations from Scranton and Elmira to organize branches of the league in those places. The date of the organization has not as yet been agreed upon. The league Is continually gaining ground among the railroad employes and bids fair to rival the most sanguine expectations of its originators. Osman F. Re In hard who for about nine years held the position of clerk to the late H. Stanley Goodwin, gen eral superintendent of the Lehigh Val ley railroad, has received the appoint ment of the clerkship for the new office Just established in the legal department of the Lehige Valley railroad, under the supervision of the general superin tendent, having Jurisdiction of damages and claims for damages over the en tire Lehigh Valley system. STOciftTMD BQXDS. New York, Oct. 13. Speculation at the stock exchange was dull and listless today. At the opening there were in dications that the covering movement In the grangers would make further progress, but it proved to be a falBe Btart and after an advance of to Mi per cent, the slight gain was partially lost . Stocks closed barely steady. Net changes show losses of to In the general list, excepting the cases of Burlington and Quincy.Rock Island and Paciflo mail, which gained to 4 per cent. Total sales were 66,000 shares- The range of today's prices or the ac tive stocks of the New York market are plven below. The quotations are furnished The Tribune by G. tlu B.

A woman high up In the prohlbl tlonary circles of New Jersey has a bot tle of wine In her cellar over fifty years old, for which a Union League club man, of New Jersey, offered $50 for a chance to test it only, and then to buy It at the woman's own price. Al though she does not desire to drink the wine herself, she says the wealthy clubman has not 'money enough to persuade her to part with it. Wines do occasionally fetch extraor dinary prices. At a recent auction In London some Maderla, supposed to have been presented by Napoleon III., was sold at 3 pound 3 shillings a bottle. Imperial Tokay has been sold at 3 pounds a bottle. A few years 'ago two bottles were sold at 80 pounds each. There are a dozen cases of holy wine at the Hotel de Ville, or town hall, Bre men, which have been valued, consider ing the original price and cellarage and Interest for 250 years, at 400,000 pounds a bottle, 64,476 pounds a glass, and 60 pounds a drop. The Rothschilds are In possession of some 1778 Maderla wine, which went down in a ship which was wrecked at the mouth of the Scheldt. It was not recovered until 1814. Forty-four bottles were sold to Rothschild at 114 pounds per bottle. Toadstools for Mushrooms. From the Altoona Tribune. Mrs. Winifred Smith, wife of Charles Smith, died at her home, 1219 Seven teenth avenue, shortly before 9 o'clock yesterday morning, after an illness of but a few days. Death was the result of the effect of partaking of some of the milk In which some mushrooms had been cooked. On Sunday lost, a son of the deceased, In company with another young man, gathered a mess of the suc culent vegetable, and among it must have got several toadstools. At any rate the mess was served Sunday even ing. It was most decidedly bitter to the taste, and Mr. Smith and his son, after tasting it, ate no more. Mrs. Smith, however, swallowed possibly two spoonfuls of the milk In which the presumed mushrooms had been cooked. Not being palatoble to any of the fam ily, the contents of the dish were thrown out and the two dogs got hold of some of the milk. Mrs. Smith be came ill Monday morning and was com pelled to return to her bed. Nothing that she ate would remain on her stomach and she became a very sick woman. Tuesday morning, however, feeling better, she got up and prepared breakfast but Boon after was compelled to again take her bed and Buffered greatly. Not until TueBtlay evening did any suspicion of polBonlng enter the minds of any one, but at that time the two dogs died and the family became alarmed. Dr. J. M. Sheedy responded, gave a prescription, but on calling yes terday morning found his patient had passed away. Attncked Ity Wild Cat. From the PottBVllle Chronicle. Herman Kable, of GlrnrdvUle, had quite an exciting time while pheasant hunting on the Little Mountain yester day. While passing through a thick cluster of buflhes his setter was attack ed by a large and vicious looking wild cat. During their battle for supremacy nn opportunity presented Itself and Mr. Kable emptied the full contents of his breech-loader Into the cat's head. The cat sprang into the air and with a dull thud fell near the gunner's feet. The animal is In the hands of Taxider mist Thomas, of Glrardvllle, and will be stuffed. Mr. Kable Is known as the "Cow-boy" hunter and Is one of the most reliable shots In the region. l ake Fish In the Delaware. , From the Allentown Leader. A special fish car Bent by II. C. Ford, president of the state fish commission ers, to Millard Hauser, of the Delaware Water Gap, arrived there yesterday and the contents were deposited In the Delaware. There were about 1,800 fish, ranging In size from four to fourteen inches, consisting of white bass, rock bass, strawberry bass, black bass and wall-eyed pike, They were caught by net in Lake Erie and shipped direct from that place. , The first trial of Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup wll satisfy any one that the lung-healing virtue of the pine tree has now been refined Into an affective and convenient cough medicine.
