THE SCR ANTON TRIBUNE TUE S DAY MORNING. NOVEMBER G, 1894. iiiuusiricii mm MINE, BULL AND RAILROAD. The village of Duryea, In Billy Hlnes' district, Is a striking evidence of the beneficent influences of the protective tariff system. Duryea, commercially, bears no relation to its status five years ago. Then the Pettlbone tract had not a single house on it. Now every lot on Main street Is sold and built on, with one exception, and those lying between Main street and the Lackawanna river, are nearly all sold, and a vlllage'ln that locality has sprung up with a popula tion equalling the population of the original village. P. B. Dills has sold nearly all of his land, and the Benedict estate will soon be offered, thus taking up all the available land on Main street and In the busiest part of the town, lots 60x150 commanding $3M to $800. The In crease In population, which uow num ber about 4,000, .10 not confined to crude labor, but a good percentage is fairly well educated, law abiding people, from among the better class of mechanics, carpenters, engineers, etc., who make their influence felt in the community. When William Connell, Simpson & Wat kins, and others started In to develop the coal lands, they bullded better than they knew, for, in addition to the pros perity of their individual interests, they have given to the .counties in which their collieries are Jocated, practically two new villages, of which Duryea Is by far the greater commercially. With a population of 4,000, this village has 10 general stores, 3 drug stores, 2 furniture and 1, undertaking establishment, 2 liv ery and boarding stables, 2 blacksmith shops, 1 wagon shop, 1 hotel and 17 restaurants, 3 barber shops, 4 meat shops, 1 Iron fence factory, 1 cigar fac tory, 1 confectionary and Ice cream und oyster house, together with several smaller interests. There is an excel elnt public school system, but tb five buildings are crowded almost beyond their capacity, owing to the trebling of the population since their erection. The Methodist church, the only one In the vicinity five years ago, Is over-crowded now, and the Baptist and Presbyterian people have each erected a house of worship in that period, -as well as the Polish people, who have a most Impos ing edifice and an active priest of their faith working among them and con ducting a parochial school. If Hlnes and his ilk can be silenced on election day, and the railroad companies be Induced to give Duryea the attention that increased growth necessitates, there is a bright future for the coming borough of Duryea. The' people of Duryea need a freight depot for the tons of freight now handled at great ex pense from Lackawanna and Plttston, and above all they need the service of passenger trains, that at present do not stop there, especially the early train north and the late train south, f . The chief representatives of cold rolled steel In this country are about to meet and form a trust, whose object will be the betterment of prices on that product. The prospective meeting wlH probably be held in New York some' day this week, and will be attended chiefly by eastern men engaged in the manufacture of the article in question. It is only within the past two or three years that cold rolled Steel has come Into the market as an active commer cial agent. Hardly had it been intro duced, however, ibefore it began to threaten the prosperity of the hot drawn steel. The price, '. though 2J4 cents per pound for large. quantities, is far from being a satisfactory one to those who handle the cold rolled steel. There are about half a dozen establish ments In this country engaged in the manufacture of cold rolled' steel. Thrre of them, known as the sheet mills, are located at Pittsburg, where is also situated the mill of Jones & Laughll'n. The Union Drawn Steel mills are at Beaver Falls and the' Com pressed Steel works at Boston. The Hudson Bay railway project has succeeded, it Is said. The route will be i Jrom Winnipeg through the fertile JBaphln country to the Saskatchewan, a distance of 300 miles, thence to the mouth of the Churchill river on Hudson bay 400 miles through a fine timber re 4 1 I gion and one rich in minerals. The IT.. 1 T"l .. . T 1 1 1 . ,tnmnntnir hnfl ri 1 eady completed its arrangements for teamship connection at the terminus in the bay. The aggregate cost will xceed 1100,000,000. Among the changes made owing to the purchase by the Lehigh Valley S-1 1 .. -. A It ! O !"1 Laurel Hill, Hazle mines, No. 6, No. 3 and South Sugarloaf collieries are the following: Newton Boone, who for several years has been the superin tendent of the carpenter force of Par dee & Co., will act in the same capacity for the Lehigh Valley company. John Strack will take Mr. Boone's . 'place Mr. Bachman, who has been coal ship per for A. Pardee & Co., will act In the same capacity for the Lehigh Val ley company, with headquarters at the Church street office. Jerry McAvoy, until late inspector for Pardee & Co., Will succeed him. Besides these changes, there Is a rumor that the ma chine shop of Pardee & Co., at Laurel Hill, will be abolished and merged Into the Lehigh Valley shops. The anthracite 'coal "trade, In the opinion of the Philadelphia Inquirer, is entering upon a new epoch. Hereto fore the business has been controlled by a few large companies, the Erie, which mined i per cent, of the total product, being the only concern that had a Nature's Reme dies of ttimes poor ly flattered by chemical and dan 'gerous imitations. For' five centuries Carlsbad has stood in the "role of strength and health-giver,' and millions have been cured by - the- Carlsbad Wa-J ters of all; sorts and manners of diseases. - -The genuine Carlsbad Sprndel Salts , are the Carlsbad Water .solidified, bottled and placed in , every American drug store, to relieve the public of malassimilation of food, flatulent obesity, icatarrh 'of1 the stomach, and gives to all. fa healthy appe f te, strong, vigorous flwh, a per ict digestion. Take no inilta ons. Eisner & Mendelsou Co., le Agents, New York. vuiiuucrcicu. small interest. But now the Erie has increased lts production .considerably, and, the Ontario and Western, New York, Susquehanna and Western, and Coxe Bros, are additional new and In dependent factors. They cannot be controlled or regulated, and these small producers are large enough in the aggregate to be of prime Import ance. When times are dull they are able to fix prices, and it is only when the demand Is large that their Influence is not felt. The market this year has been made by these small producers, and the indications are they will make next year's market too. The business of mining and carrying coal has become a mercantile enterprise in which the competitor who has the smallest charges per ton to pay will fix the price. MINOR INDUSTRIAL NOTES: ' The condition of the iron and steel Industries is less favorably regarded than a month ago. October bank clearings reflect the en larged fall trade in a total larger than for any month since June, 1SD3. The Rock Island's estimated earnings for October show a decrease of $."il!0,14;!; actual gross for October, 181)3, proved to be $2,307,077. W. L. McGill, well known in northern railway circles, has been appointed secretary of the Southern Railway and Steamship association. :,The new rules governing excess bag gage charges adopted by the Western Passenger association went Into effect on the first of this month. William Mitchell, a miner In the Lance colliery, will succeed W. H. Hos kins as lire boss. Mr. Hosklns hus ac cepted a foremanship at Scranton. For the three months ending Sept. 30 the Wabash shows a decrease in net earnings, as compared with the corre sponding period of last year, of $334.CG2. The shops of Baltimore and Ohio Southwestern, at Washington, Ind., are running nine hours a day, but employ ing only one-half the usual number of men. Engine 904, on the New York Central, on Tuesday, hauled the Empire State express from Rochester to Syracuse, eighty-one miles, in seventy-eight min utes. M. B. Rice, formerly with the Erie, has been appointed superintendent of the Gulf Terminal and Navigation com pany, with headquarters at Tallahas see, Fla. Vice-President Williams, of the New Jersey Central, snys there is no foun dation for the rumor that the company is about to make a general reduction In wages. The passenger officials of the Vander bilt lines, Including the Big Four, will, on Nov. 9, have a meeting in New York city to' confer regarding passenger business. Pennsylvania officials state that their local business the last sixty days, Chicago business excepted, has been In excess of that of the corresponding monthB of 1893. The September quarter of the Phila delphia, Reading and New England railroad receivers' report Bhows: Earn ings, $180,304; expenses, $125,778; charges, $36,138; net income, $19,388. The Vandalia is laying ninety-pound-to-the-yard steel between Teutoplis and Montrose. It is the intention to lay hereafter on the Vandalia main line ninety-pound rails only. All the western roads both In and out of the Western Passenger association have decided that this year they will make no reduced rates for the clerks In the employ of the government at Wash ington who may. wish to go to their homes In the west awl vote. Like the western lines, recently, the trunk lines some months ago agreed to restrict .the issuance of passes to 'influ ence business, in the east the agree ment has not been kept, and it remains to be seen whether western 'lines will be able to do better with so popular a movement. Superintendent Donnelly, of the Le high Valley railroad, has posted a no tice at the Valley depot, at Easton, di recting all employes to abstain from political discussions while on duty or on the company's premises, and from attempting to influence persons how they shall vote. ' Fred E. Zerby, of Shenandoah, who has been mining engineer for the Le high Valley Coal company for ten years, has been promoted to the superlnten dency of the company's recently pur chased collieries near Hazleton. These collieries were formerly owned by the Pardees and J. C. Haydon. Station agents on the Jersey Central have received notice to put. charges for storage on baggage remaining un der their care over twenty-four hours. The charges are 25 cents for the first twenty-four.: hours after being under their charge twenty-four hours, and 10 cents for every twenty-four hours after. The Pennsylvania railroad general manager's Inspection will begin today. The general manager will be accom panied by the engineer of maintenance of way,.' and they will begin at Pitts burg and work east. All lines will be thoroughly Inspected. This In the an nual trip, and awards are made for the best sections of tracks and. road bed. Many of the railroads in Indiana, Illinois and Ohio are greatly troubled to' fill orders for cars, moro especially stock iind coal cars, and in the fruit growing section there Is a large de mand' for the better 'class of box cars in which to ship fruit. Thousands of carloads of apples, grapes and pota toes are being shipped from New York and Michigan to all points In the cen tral traffic territory, and with the close of lake navigation there will be a great demand for grain cars. Had Been Shopping Himself, , From the Detroit 'Free Press. Minutes lengthened into hours and hours into days, but she came not. Friends told him she was faithless. But sitting in the midst of his lonely home he hoped. "She had eloped with another," they urged! He shook his head. "Perhaps" It was evident that he was arguing against his own sad convictions. "she is waiting for change some where." The Baby Always Boss. From Harper's Bazar. "It must be strange for the Spaniards to feel that they are ruled over by a mere Infant." "Why?" "It's so uncommon." "Humph! It's plain you never had an Infant. It's the most natural thing in the world for a baby to boss things." When Baby was slch, we gate her Castorta.

Until the last half hour of business" at the Stock ex change today the market for stocks ruled quiet, but the undertone, as usual of late, was decidedly firm. In the final dealings, however, trading was more active, and the bullish feeling quite pro nounced. The bulk of the purchases were for the purpose of covering Bhort contracts, the small bears having con cluded that as some of their leaders had covered in St. Paul, it was time for them to change. The anthracite coalerB did not sym pathize with the improvement, and Jer sey Central ruled heavy, closing at 914. The stock was influenced by the talk of a reduction In the dividend. The advance In the general list ranged Vt to 1 per cent. The market closed strong with an advancing tendency. Sales, 120,000 shares.

New wheat is now upon the market, and owing to the excessively dry weather many millers are of the opinion that it is already cured, and in proper condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will take no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully three months to mature before grinding. This careful attention to every detail of milling has placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s Hour far above other brands. 6 fflEGARGEL Wholesale Agents.
