Communication to the Legislature.
KILL PAYOR FORESTRY LAVS

To Prevent Strcnra Pollutlon-Mcus
urcs Needed to Check Tubercu
losis Among Cuttle.
By the United Press.
llarrlsburg, Dec. 3. Governor Paul
son Is at work on the outline of his
biennial message to the legislature. He
has secured from Secretary Harrlty
und otht;r 'heads of departments ad
vance copies of-their annual reports,
and will weave into the message some
of the practical mig-gestlcrns and recom
mendations embodied In them for the
efllclency of the public service and 1'ie
advancement of the Interests of the
commonwealth.
Special reference will be made to the
large Increase In the state revenues the
past two yars and the redemption of
over $2,000,000 of bonds within the past
year. The governor will point out the
imperfections In the ballot and recom
mend such changes as will make it
nearer perfect. He will, no doubt, ap
prove the suggestions made by Secre
tary Harrlty In his report, which is In
the hands of the state printer, that the
law be amended so as to provide for a
epecillo form of ballot blanks, for cer
tlflcates of nomination papers, and for
H form of oath. Under the existing
law the form of the ofllclal ballot is dif
ferent In nearly every county of the
state, Secretary Ilarrity's report also
contains the decisions of the Dauphin
county court the past two years on the
ballot law, in order that members of
lie legislature may see for themselves
the changes that are necessary.
l:or Forest Protection.
Governor Paulson will speak kindly
of the National Guard, and commend
Jts efficiency as shown at the division
encampment last summer at Gettys
burg and during the riots In the bi
tuminous region. In this connection,
he will probably discuss the outbreaks
end trouble In the coal region.
The necessity of the adoption 'of
measures for the preservation of the
forests of the state and the stoppage
of the pollution of its sources of water
supply will be advocated. He will
doubtless recommend the enactment of
a law providing for the establishment
of township boards of health, with
powers similar to those of cities and
boroughs. Mention will be made of the
relief which has been made to the over
crowded state Insane hospitals by the
establishment of the hospital for the
chronic Insane at AVernersvllle, and of
the good which Is expected to follow
the erection of the State Institute for
Feeble Minded children at Polk, and
the Industrial school for soldiers' Or
phans at Scotland.
The governor will approve the efforts
of the State Agricultural society, the
Grange and kindred organizations to
secure the passage of an act by the
next legislature to prevent the spread
of tuberculosis among domestic cattle.
A measure of this kind has been pre
pared by Secretary Edge of the State
Hoard of agriculture, and generally has
been Indorsed by the agricultural
classes. It provides that when It shall
be brought to the notice of the gover
nor and secretary of the state board of
agriculture that tuberculosis exists
firming domestic animals anywhere In
the state, they Bhall have power to
place Infected animals, herds and
premises In quarantine, to employ such
assistance as may be necessary and
regulate their compensation and the
movement of nnlmals and articles like
ly to convey the contagion. The bill
provides further that theso officials
may order and conduct such examina
tions Into the condition of the live stock
of the state In relation to tuberculosis,
including the milk supplies of cities,
towns, boroughs and villages, as may
seem necespartf and to take proper
measures to protect such milk supplies
from contamination by this disease.
To Protect Cuttle.
It Is also proposed by the bill that
when It may be necessary to condemn
find kill any animal or nnimals to pre
vent the spread of the disease- and an
agreement cannot be made with own
M3 for th value thereof three commis
sioners shall be appointed who shall
under oath or affirmation appraise the
unimal or animals, taking into consid
eration their actual value at the time
of such appraisement, and such ap
praised price shall be paid In the same
manner as .other expenses of the act
are provided for. The necessary ex
penses incurred under the proposed law
are to be paid out of the state treasury
after they have been approved by the
governor and secretary of the state
board of agriculture.
T1IK DECEMBER OUTPUT.
It Will lie Restricted to 2,000,001) Tons
New Anthruulto Prices.
Bpeclal to the Scranton Tribune.
New York, Dec. 3. A meeting of the
anthracite sales agents was held here
today. After some discussion of a har
monious nature. It was agreed that the
December tonnage should be no per
cent, of the June tonnage, or 2,600,0u0
tons In round numbers.
Prices were advanced slightly. The
new circular rates egg at tidewater at
$3.00; chestnut and stove coal at $3.00,
und lump coal at $3.75.
It is a unique sight
to view at Carlsbad the
motley row of drinkers of
nations, languages,
3 manners and costumes
hurrying down in single
file to the boiling Sprudel Spring
with au earthenware mng in their
hands, or slung by a strap around
their neck or over the shoulder,
and patiently waiting their turn
to sip of the precious fluid. For
three centuries or more, all sorts
and conditions of men. from the
king to the tramp, have pilgriru
ized hither in search of new life or
relief from pain. But we cannot
in these competitive days afford
the time and money to travel so
far afield, so it is brought to your
uoon bottled in its natural aud
original form at the Spring, or
in powder evaporated on the spot,
and so well known as the Carls
bad Sprudel Water, and Carlsbad
Sprudel Salt. The signature,
"Eisner & Mendelson Co., Sole
Agents, New York," is on every
Dome, ueware or imitations.

MR. HAVEMEYER TALKS.
Reviews the Sugar Situation to u Sun
Reporter.
By the United Tress.
New York, Dec. . The Evening Sun
this afternoon prints the following:
President Havemeyer, of the sugar
trust, was seen today by a reporter of
the Evening Sun.
"Work has been resumed in the re
fineries on a very reduced scale," he
said. "I do not anticipate the passage
of a free sugar bill. The Franklin re
finery of Philadelphia is working with
a reduced force. The Spreckels refinery
Is not working at all. The IJoston re
finery is working with about one-half
the regular force. The Madison and
Wlechwa- refinery Is working with
about one-half force. The lirooklyn
eflnery is idle. The Havemeyer and
:ider refinery Is working with .nearly a
full force."
Mr. Havemeyer denied reports of dif
ferences with orther directors. He also
dunled having a conference with sena
tors at the Fifth Avenue hotel.
HOWGATE IS INDICTED.
(ji und Jury Returns True Bills on Charge
of Kmhezlemcnt.
By the United Press.
Washington, Dec. 3. -The grand jury
today presented two new Indictments
against Captain Henry W. Howgate for
embezzlement. It fs presumed that the
forgery Indictments against him will
hold good, as none were presented by
the grand Jury today for that offense.
Judge McComas, who presides in the
cases against Howgate now has under
consideration the indictments ngainst
Howgate originally prepared by an
assistant of the attorney general's office.
Great stress Is laid in one count on
the fact that Howgate, at the time he
was recaptured at New York was a fu
gitive from justice. It is said that the
original indictments in the embezzle
ment cases will be thrown out tomor
row morning when Judge McComas will
render his decision on the demurrers
thereto.
INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.
Erie passes are not honored on the
Delaware and Hudson company's Jef
ferson division. '
The Kending Is behind $1,183,452 for
the eleven months of the year. This
sum Includes over a half million spent
for Improvements.
A Pittsburg dispatch says that
another cut will shortly be made In
steel rails and It Is not unlikely that the
prices, now that they have started on
the down grade, will reach $20 before
the market ucuulrles anything like sta
bility. The Erie railroad does not cheek bi
cycles or allow them to be checked over
Its lines, but It carries them free under
a release of liability wlien accompanied
by owner, the owner agreeing to receive
und deliver the machine at the door of
baggage .car.
The Mount Vernon Coal company ex
pects to have Its reconstructed Arch
bald breaker ready for operation by
Jan. 1. Twenty thousand dollars have
been expended In Improvements. The
daily capacity will be 300 tons at first.
Dr. J. M. Rice Is general manager.
Of the ninety-three engines on the
Pennsylvania division forty-four are
equipped with the Westinghouse auto
matic air brake and seven others are
now at the company's locomotive works
for general repairs and a similar equip
ment. The balance of the motive power
will be supplied with the safety brake
as rapidly as they can be gotten at.
The Fern Cllf breaker near Archbald
Is working dally to Its full capacity and
shipping about ISO tons of conl to mar
ket, under the management of Charles
Ilawley. The supply for this breaker
Is furnished from the culm dumps of
the old Filer breaker which has recently
been run by the Pierce Coal company.
Ten or tewlve inert are employed dally
and the supply will no doubt last for
several years.
hast Friday, Saturday and Sunday
the Lehigh Valley railroad shipped
more coal and freight over the road
than any other three days for the past
few years. On- Friday 1,058 loaded coal
cars were shipped; on Saturday 850 coal
cars on an eight wheel basis, and 887
loaded freight cars. The latter were In
30 trains, averaging 29 cars to a train.
Sunday 674 loaded freight cars were
hauled from the west to tide water
points and 653 loaded coal cars.
A slight Improvement In rallraod
earnings Is reported. The returns of
seventy-nine roads for the second week
of November show gross earnings of
$7,877,054. a, decreuse of $173,954, or 2.16
per cent, as compared with the same
week last year. For the third week of
November the returns of sixty-two
roads show gross earnings of $7,431,341,
an increase of $12,222, or 0.16 per cent,
over last year. Only twenty-three roads
out of the sixty-two report decreases,
the mos,t important being the St. Paul,
which shows a loss of $111,227.
One of the arguments used In behalf
of canal transportation from Pittsburg
to Erie is Interesting: It was pointed
out In an able paper read recently before
the Society of Engineers of Western
Pennsylvania by George Tener, a coal
expert, that Pittsburg coal when It
reaches the end of the route on the lakes
has suffered a loss of from 9 to 11 per
cent, by Its breaking up Into dust.
About 3,000,000 tons of bituminous coal
reach the lakes by rail yearly from
Pennsylvania and Ohio. Ten per cent,
of this vast quantity, according to Mr.
Tener, suffers, a diminution In value of
$1 a ton, which is to say an actual loss
of $300,000, Two-thirds at least of this
loss. It Is claimed, would be saved on
the same coal If It went by canal from
the mines direct to the distant lake
ports, as Duluth, for instance, or about
enough saving to pay canal toll charges
on the entire 3,000,000 tons.
STOCKS AX1) BONDS.
By the United Press.
New York. Dec. 3. American Sue-ar
led the list 1n point of activity, the
Bales of the tock footing, up 102.000
shares In a grand total of 2ai,000 shares.
It opsned M hlghtr at 85, fell to 84.
jumped to Sfi. dropped to 82 and I al
lied to 8414. The early rise was due to
the announcement that tlv manage
ment or the company had thought bet
ter of its original intention of a com
plete shutdown of the lvtlnerles. and
has ordered the resumption of work at
the Williamsburg plants. This Induced
considerable covering of short stock.
but when the president s message be
came public there was a rush to sell
and the stock fell to the lowest point
tor a long time. Humors about the
dividend which Is to be decided either
Wednesday or Thursday helped to keep
the pluck feverish. In usually well In
formed quarters It is believed that
Huvcmeyer's interest favors a reduc
tion and that they will carry the point
now tha t the president has come out In
such strong terms ugalnst the com
pany. Chicago Gas was heavy on
liquidations selling down to 68, in
fluenced by rumors of a reduction In
the dividend rate. The general market
was weakened In the early trading by
the advance In sterling, which revived
the talk about gold exports. The early
decline nveraged about ,j per cent. Af
ter awhile the market cut uway from
the Industrials and moved up all along
the line. The improvement in the gen
eral list ranged from Vt to 1, North
west leading. The market strength
ened in the late dealings by the an
nouncement that the Lehigh Valley
road hail agreed to a reduction In out
put for December and to tidewater, line
and other prices. This was accepted as
a nuaning that the Independent opera
tors had been brought Into line. The
market closed firm, except for Sugar.
The range of today s prices for the ac
tive stocks of the New York stock
market are given below. The quota
tions are furnished The Tribune by G.

Washhtirn-Croshy Co. wish to assure their many rat
rons that thev will this vear hold to their usual custom
of milling S l'RICTLY Oil) WHEAT until the new crop
is fully cured. 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. Washhurn-Croshy 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 Wasliburn-Crosby Co.'s Hour far above other
brands.
