The managers of the Traction company are making no effort to clear their tracks further than Pine , Btreet. The authorities should tuke the matter in hand.

She claims the land formerly be longed to an ancester of hers named Mordecal Price, who leased it for nlne-ty-nlne years, and that the lease ex pired last May.

Wyatt's company store bill has been knocked out in commil.teo at Harrlsburg on constitutional ground. The HpfK'lal meeting of th Lake Trie and Western fttockhui'lers, tvlllch was tn have beeti held yesterday, has been post poned until Tuesday, Feb. 1H. The Kbervale tunnel wus tapped yes terday, and water to the amount of ,) gallons per minute Is now flowing through the big opening In the rock Into the Lllilo Neseopeek. It is pronounced at Harrlshurg doubtful If the Coyltt bill to create a department of mining will ever come out of committee. Nobody wunts surh a department except a few agitutors. Orders have been received by the Hick ory Hldge, Pennsylvania and Mellaril collieries at Blminokln to start work on nine hours a day and six days a week. Thesa collieries are owned by the Union Coal company. Judge Jenkins has assented to the plan of tho Northern Pacific receivers to en large the company's facilities for hand ling and shipping coal from the port of Tucnma; tho plan culls for the building of extra coal bunkers, which ulono will cost llu.OUO. A portion of the general stocks of roal of the several companies has been dis posed of, and an impetus (hereby given tho trade which will probably continue for tome time to come. There Is nothing new to repo'i t regarding the adoption of a plan to give permanent stability to the trade, r The coal tonnago of the Beading rail road lust week amounted to 104,011 Inns, a deoreuse an rouiured with the same week Inst year of t,m tons. As compared With the preceding week, however, the deorease waa tons. For the fiscal year to Feb. 9, the itonnagn. aggregated 8,2111,4.10 tons, an Increase of 3t;,il7 tons over the corresponding period last year. On Nov. 23 last, when the Lehigh Val ley rallrood changed Its time table, the mull service from Haleton to Mllnesvllle, Latimer and Kbervale, was considerably crippled, and the residents of these vil lages were, compelled io be satisfied with ono mall a day. Kx-Postmustor Klmiur Immediately recommended to the poster flee department thut the trolley bo sub stituted Instead, and Postmaster Martin has just - received the approval of said recommendation from the department at Washington. As instancing the good effects, in uu Ing life und preventing accident, of tho law requiring the examination of mine foremen, Iho Wllkes-Uurre Kecord draws interesting compuiisoiiM between the mine slutlstlcs from 1B70 (when anthracite mine Inspection was established) to WHS; und those from ISS0 (when the examination of niino foremen began) to WXi. During the first period, wi.Otw tons of coal were mined for each death, while tho ratio of deaths per 1,000 employes wus 3.G0S. During the second period, tons of coal were mined per death, und the ratio of death fell to 3.1W per 1,000 employes. This result Is the more gratifying In consideration of tho fact that, us tho Record adds, "while, the mines grow more dangerous every day (the normal Immunity from accident be ing four-fold greater fifteen years ago man toilay), nevertheless thene are less cusualtles all the time. Thls,of course, Is not altogether due to the luw under dis cussion, but with nil the other measures adopted and having the sumo common ob ject, this ono lias done Its share In making our mines less dangerous thun formerly."
