THE SCHANTON TlilBUNE-FnlDAT MOKNTITO.. FEBRUARY 15, 1895.
The
Saturday
Tribune.
The man who wants to be thoroughly happy
will need to read tomorrow's Tribune. Its twelve
handsome pages will literally teem with good read
ing some of it grave, some gay, some diverting,
some instructive. You have probably noticed
that this Saturday edition of our's is steadily
growing better. You already know, of course,
that it is the best Saturday issue of any news
paper in Scranton, which means in Northeastern
Pennsylvania.
But that doesn't wholly satisfy us. There
is no reason why the best city in the state
should not have, at least once a week, the best
paper in the state. "Ye have an idea that the
intelligent readers of this section will appre
ciate the opportunity which The Tribune is
giving, them to obtain, for. two cents, a paper
well worth ten ; and that, for Saturday,
they will know how to evince their appreciation
of the best number of any newspaper in the
entire state.
It costs us double the money ; but it doesn't
cost the purchaser even one extra mill.

Funeral announcement later.
Arresttd on Snsplclon.
Michael Coyle wan taken Into custody
Inst evening by Constable Edward
Small. He is accused of stealing the
team In front of the Sinclair House on
Tuesday evening. Coyle was taken lie-
fore Justice Jordan, who remanded him
to Jail In default of ball to await a
further hearing. He asserts hl Innr).
cence and lays the crime to a compniv
Ion, who, In company with Coyle, wai
forcibly ejected from the Sinclair House
on the night above mentioned by Land
lord Fenney for creating a disturbance
Jn the billiard room. The fellow made
a desperate resistance as Chief Loftus
and Constable Bennett hustled him
along to the city bastlle.
Charles Smith and William Williams
have entered Into partnership with our
enterprising grocery merchant, Ed
ward Barrett. The new firm will con-i
tinue business at the same stand, where
they will soon be prepared to serve
their many friends with a first class
line ot staple and fancy groceries.
But one admission was madm at tha
hospital today Joseph Walsh, aged 39
years, an employe ot the Pennsylvania
Coal company, at the Burnum shaft.
He was crossing the Krle and Wyom
ing railroad bridge on South Main
street early this morning, when he fell
and received a contusion of the hip.
The patients at the hospital now num
ber 2S, 21 male and 7 female. The
female ward ls not adequate to the
present demands, as It will only ac
commodate five beds.
Dr. Walsh's Condition Critical.
The improvement noted yesterday In
the condition of Dr. J. J. Walsh, who
has been dangerously ill at his home
on William street, has not been main
tained. At ti o'clock tonight he was
uneunselous, and the attending phy
sician, Dr. MeFadden. expressed doubts
of his recovery. Dr. Walsh had
not enjoyed tlrst-clatis health for
many months. Three years ago the
grip wracked his system, and its lin
gering after effects frequently caused
him much annoyance. This, added to
the extraordinary demands of his ex
tensive practice, culminated some days
ago in a severe, and, us it proves, well-
nigh fatal Illness. Dr. Wulsh has been
repeatedly advised by friends to take
a rest from the incessant demands
made upon his time and vitality; but
while promising io do this at some
more convenient time," he never man
aged to reach such a time. It is simply
the truth to say that no other physician
in this community has a larger number
of personal friends and grateful bene
ficiaries of his professional skill than
has Dr. Walsh. The news of his Im
provement would be almost as welcome
to them as to the Immediate mem
bers of his family. If good wishes und
anxious solicitude possess sufficient
curative virtue, Dr. Walsh will be com
pletely restored to health in short order.
A DccIJed Success.
The ladles of Branch 92, ladles'

INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.

1SSII.
Mr. Powderly has written to the min

(Jeneral Manager Henderson, of the
Bending Coal und Iron company, says
the coal trade Is in u better condition
than it has been for some time, but,
owing to only one truck In various
pluees being open, the movement of coul
Is slow.
Report of the Lehbrh Vulley Railway
company for the quarter ended Dec. 31,

road commission, shows: Cross earn

Philadelphia Inquirer: Andrew P.
Bedford, the general manager of the big
milk transportation company which
controls the business all along the Le
high Valley railroad, wus at the Uirard
liniise Wednesday, and as ho gazed out
f the window from the reading room,
wondered if more bllxzards were in
store to keep him In harness day anil
night for a week. iSpeaklng of the dltll-
culty of bringing milk into the city
during such weather as happened lust
week, ho told how the Lehigh Valley
ollU'lals had helped to prevent a milk
famine in Philadelphia by running in
milk cars on their fast trains, even
taking off Pullman coaches in order to
provide for the transit.
According to a ruling of the supreme
court of Pennsylvania recently, it was
decided that coal loyalties are princi
pal, and not Interest; In other words,
they are classed In the same category
as fixed value on real estate. Under
this decision it is held that such royal
ties can not be classed as Income and
can not be taxed under the Income tax
law. The commissioner of internal
revenue has decided, however, accord
ing to the general Interpretation In
pamphlet law 7, No. 7, that the royal
ties are purely "income," und come un
der the tax provisions. With the Penn
sylvania supreme court holding one
view, and a United States official ex
pressing another directly opposite,
chances for litigation appear to the
Stockholder to be good.
Slipless wheels for trolley cars form
the problem which Leonard Roll, a
Wilkes-liarre mechanic, seeks to solve
by means of a recently lasudd patent.
The rims of the wheels proposed by
him have slots In them. . These slots
are so tapering that they do not choke
up and they cut through the snow and
ice like a saw. The ordinary wheel is
smooth, and the moment it strikes an
ley rail or a lot of snow it whirrs
around and the car can proceed no
farther. The slipless wheel grinds
through this to the rail and throws the
accumulation of snow and Ice to the
side of the track. Trials made on the
lines of the Wllkcs-Karro and Wyoming
v alley railroad Indicate an unexpected
degree of success in the invention. It
Is thought Mr. Roll will realize hand
some returns on his Invention.
Philadelphia Inquirer: The bitumin
ous coal trade season has begun under
circumstances almost as discouraging
as those that prevail In the anthracite
trade. The contract for supplying the
Grand Trunk road with fuel has been
awarded nt as low or even lower figure
than ruled last year. Before any bids
were put in the principal railroads
agreed not to cut rates but to get more
for transportation than they did In WM
and to support no bidder who did not
conform to this agreement. Yet the
contract for Portland deliveries has
been awarded to the Bench Creek inter
est ut a price which seems to Imply that
the railroad company has cut the
freight rate 20 cents n ton or more
The contract for loo.ooo tons for de
livery at suspension i:rldge was
awarded to the Itiiffalo, Rochester and
Pittsburg Inli-resf at a price slightly
less than ruled last year, when the
price was considered exceptionally
low. To say that the Pennsylvania,
Baltimore nnd Ohio, Norfolk and
Western nnd other tidewater shippers
Me highly incensed at the action nl
me neecn i reeg is to put the case
very mildly. They claim to know per
ftvtly well whatlt costs to mine Beech
Creek coal and what the. vessel
freights are from Port Richmond to
Portland und they declare positively
that the Beech Creek has violated Its
agreement, and ban cut rates Just as
It did last yeni". The (irand Trunk
contract Is always the first to be
awarded and tills unexpected develop
ment, may woik disaster when th
next contract comes up. Certainly It
has destroyed confidence among all
the soft conl producers who now have
no faith In th(? honesty of their com
petltors. Last year was a disastrous
one to the soft coal carriers because
of the strike and the low prices thnt
prevailed and the strain was too much
for the Norfolk and Western, which
wns compelled to seek the protection
of the court. But this year miens
worse thun Inst year did and if the
rates fixed by the Beech Creek con
tract with the (irand Trunk are to
prevail universally then there Is a pos
sibility that one and perhaps two more
bituminous carriers mny be forced Into
receivers' hands this year. The award
of the next Important contract will tell
the story.

disposition ito branch out in any quarter

ment was short lived, however, and the
continued dullness finally emboldened
the bears, who made a well directed at
tack against Sugar and Northwest.
Sugar yielded from t0 to 89V4 and

decline In Northwest was by far the
most Important, the stock having sold
down from 82 to 90V4 and closed within

to our patrons:
Wushburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their many paN
rons that they will this vcur hold to their usual custom f - m
of milling STRICTLY OLD WHEAT until the new crop
Js fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, and
owing to the excessively dry weather many millers aro
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 threo
months to mature before grinding.
This cureful attention to every detail of milling has
placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s 'flour far above other
brands.
