Pittston Topics.
Special to the Bcranton Tribune.
Pittston, Pa., Jan. 22. A shooting
nffray took pluoe this morning u 9-15
front of the postotilee, on Water street,
In which W. R. or Obedlah Ward, busi
ness manager of the Kittle Hhodes
Comedy company, was made the victim.
Manager Ward and his advance agent,
Gilbert Ely. failed ito agree on some
of .their business transactions, so Kly
appealed to Miss Rhodes and ttated
thmt either Ward or himself must leave
the company. Miss Rhodes released
Ely, who surrendered all keys, tickets,
we., in his possession. All was appar
ently satisfactory until the time above
mentfencd. when Kly. upon meeting
Ward coming from the postolllce, drew
a revolver and tired directly at his
victim's heart. Ward received the
bullet, of Si-calibre, in the left shoulder.
He was assisted to his room in the Val
ley House and Doctors McKndden and
Hutching were called, who adminis
tered to the suffering man of their med
ical skill, making his condition as com
fortable as possible. Ely nave himself
tip and was taken into custody by
County Detective lsuac Kckert, who
took him before Justice Cllbbons.
'Squire Gibbons committed Kly -to the
county Jail to await the result of Ward's
injuries. At 5.30 p. in. Ward was rest
ing comfortable and fears of serious re
sults are not entertained. The bullet
ias not as yet been extracted.
Notwithstanding the shotting MIks
Hhodes and her corps of artists will
continue the show every evening this
week, as neither Ward or Kly were In
the cast.
A large and enthusiastic audience
greeted Kittle Rhodes at MuMe Hall
Jast evening. Not even standing room
could be found. The play of "Queenu"
Is of a very realistic nature and dwells
m the disappointments which some
times fall to us In this life. MMs
iRhoades as Mile. Rainey showed her
cleverness as an actress and Induced
many of her audience to wipe their
yes. On Wednesday night Mls9
fflhodes will appear In "Lynwood."

Among the disgruntled Democrats of
this place there appears to be a move
ment afoot to place a Citizen's ticket in
the field. They do not expect to eleckJ
their sore-head ticket, but they "hope to
be able to defeat the regularly nomi
nated Democratic ticket.
Foreman Thomas R. Loverlng, of
Greenwood, iwill be nominated by the
Republicans of the Southwest district
for the oflice of school director. Thero
is (scarcely any necessity to say any
thing about Mr. Loverlng's manliness
afid uprightness. He is a liberal, sensi
ble, progressive and capable citizen,
and whatever trust he is delegated to
fulfill will be done with ability and
carefulness. His election would place
on the Lackawanna school board a man
who would most creditably represent
Ids constituents.

INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.
The traction companies of New Jer
sey have formed a combine. The mo
tive Is to help eacii other in case of
strikes and to Influence legislation. The
Schuylkill Traction company, whose
lines extend from Mahanoy City to Ash
land, a distance of fifteen miles, earned
$7,4S1.25 in December, and had left n t
I3.117.S1. This Js ia pretty good Know
ing. The construction of a railway be
tween Hiroshima and Slilmonoaikl has
been sanctioned by the Japanese gov
ernment. In addition to these, lines will
be constructed to connect, firstly, Sase
bo and Tsukayaki; and, secondly, Ku
mamoto and Mesuml. The first men
tioned of the above will be a branch of
the Sango railway 110 miles long; the
estimated cost being $3,000,000.
Philadelphia, Jan. 22. It was an
nounced at the oflice of the Pennsylva
nia Steel company that the affairs of
that concern and the Maryland Steel
company, which are In the hands of
a re-organlzatton committee, are In a
fair way for settlement In the near
future. The matter of re-organlzatlon
Is now before the master, and, In a
short time, 'his report will be made to
the court. When this shall be done,
and the necessary legal requirements
compllnd with, the new company will
take charge of Its affairs and the re
ceivers will be discharged by the court.
All of the creditors have assented to the
plan of re-organlzatlon.
The Rock Island will, during the com
ing year, extend Its tracks northward
from Liberal, Kas., which will give it
the most direct route to the City of
Mexico. The proposed extension will
run from Liberal down through
No Man's Land, crossing the
Dpnver, Texas and Fort Worth line at
or near Duncan, Tex., thence on to
Fort Sumner on the River Pecos, and
then to the White Oaks country and
Fort Stanton. At this latter place a
connection will be made with a line
to be constructed from El Paso along
the east range for a distance of about
150 miles. This extension will make a
short line to El Paso, where a connec
tion will be (had with the Mexican Cen
tral and give the Rook Island the short
est line between the East and the City
of Mexico.
Tihe statistician of the trade has com
pleted his computation of the anthra
cite shipments for 1804, the total being
41,3!tl,1 tons, compared with 43,0X9,5:16
tons In 1S9.1, a decrease of 1.008,337 tons.
The Public Ledger thinks the cold
weather (has improved the demand to,'
cu.il considerably. The Increased sales
have reduced the unsold stocks, par
ticularly at New York. If this condi
tion continues it will have an excellent
effect upon the trade, especially as the
companies are keeping down their out
put for the current month to something
like tire percentage arranged before
New Year Day. The better demand
and the radically reduced production of
fresh coal, taken together, are getting
the trade upon a more healthy basis,
because the former unsold stocks aire
thus largely dnaiwn upon to Rupply con
sumera. The committee which Is en
deavorlng to gather statistics and ar
range a plan for allotment Is not mak
ing much progress. The members have
not got all the necessary figures com
piled, nor are they able to guage the
capacity of collieries owned by Indl
vldual operators or practically control
their actual output in case a basis Is
reached.

Hawaiian Hut tic Is l'onyht Over
Again in the Senate.
THE PRESIDENT'S POSITION
His Attitudo 1 ucctlously Defined by Mr,
Uray-Indlan Appropriation Dill in tho
llouse Tho I'rgcnt Deficiency
Bill Agreed To.
By the United Press,
Washington, Jan. 22. The Hawaiian
question was again debated in the sen
ate today for somewhat over two hours.
Mr. Gray, occupied the position of de
fender and advocate of the adminis
tration, and Mr. Lodge that of its
prosecutor. The latter senator was
plain and outspoken in advocacy of the
annexation of ithe Islands, declaring
that .he nil-liked .to see the American
Mag pulled down where It had been once
run up, or an American foot go back
where it had been once advanced.
Mr. Lodge disclaimed the Idea of any
modlve to condemn the administration.
Tho administration, he said, stood con
demned in the Hawaiian mutter by the
general opinion of the American people.
It bad a sulllclent load to carry al
ready. SUU less had he any desire to
make polltlcul capital out of the ques
tion. There was no occasion for that.
But matters were In such condition
that .the United States ought to take
:t positive position, ought to take some
unintuitive aotlon. The present condi
tion of affairs seemed to be In the high
est degree discreditable to the govern
ment of the I'nited States.
Mr, Gray said that It was pretty
hard for the president to shape his
action so us to meet the approval of
:enators on' it he other side. "If the
president," ho added facetiously
"stands up, 'he Is too long; and if lie
sits down, he lis too short" (laughter).
The president, Mr. Gray declared,
would 'have been derelict if he had not
taken the opportunity to tell the Ha
waiian Royalist committee absolutely
that they must expect no aid or encour
agement from him. That had become
necessary by reason of what had been
said In Wie senate, In the country and
through the press, us to the president's
viows in the matter of Hawaii.
In the course of the discussion, Mr.
Hawley took occasion to correct the
Impression that in yesterday's debate
he ihad charged the president with
conspiring" with Royalist Hawaiian
conspirators. Wimt he intended to con
vey, he said, was that the president hud
conferred" with them.
The Kyle resolution, on which discus
sion had been based, was at the close
of the morning hour placed on the cal
endar.
Indian Appropriation Hill.
After six days' consideration, Mr.
Holman (Dem., Ind.) succeeded today
in getting the Indian appropriation bill
for the year ending June 30, IStIG,
through the house. A number of
changes were made In its text, how
ever, before the committee of the whole
recommended favorable action, chiefly
In 'the way of dropping suggested
changes from the established practice
by the Indiun bureau.
Dills were passed in the morning
hour authorizing the establishment of
a national military park at Gettysburg,
Pa., and appropriating $75,000 therefor;
authorizing the appointment of cadets
at the Naval academy from districts
not now represented by residents
therein, or by cadets who were resi
dents at the time of their appointment.
The conference report on the urgent
deficiency bill carrying the appropria
tion for the collection of the Income
tax was agreed to. The house dis
agreed to the senate amendments to
the fortifications appropriation bill and
asked a conference thereon.
On behalf of Chalrmnn Wilson, who
was unavoidably absent, Mr. McMulIln
(Dcm., Tenn.) presented the report of
the committee on ways and means, rec
ommending the pnssage of the bill to
repeal the provision of the tariff law
Imposing an additional duty of one
tenth of a cent a pound upon sugar Im
ported from a country which pays an
export bounty on that article.
The house at S o'clock adjourned.

(ACTION
TO our patrons:
Washfcurn-Croshy Co. wish to assure their many pat
rons that tlicv will this a cur hold to their usual custom
of milling STRICTLY OLD 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-Crosby Co. will takt
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 flour far above other
brands.
