Pittston, Feb. 17. Our alert and
praeeful bnsket ball players were taken
advantage of In a disrespectful manner
ut Scranton YounR Men's Christian As
sociation hall on Saturday nlRht. For
reasons best known to the Scranton
league the ollk'Iul umpire, llessel, of
Vilkes-Karre, was not present. lieorRe
iJay, of Scranton. ueted In his stead, und
was very partial In bis decisions,
favoring the home team on nearly
every Instance. Kutrene Smith, of l'itts

In behalf of the defeated team. The
players of the Scranton team were as
follows: Guard, MeUouldrick; right
Kiund, Malutt. left guard. Murphy;
light center, Olllorn: center, Keese: left

ligainst them. They continued the

Ilurglars Frustrated.
Two men succeeded in gaining en
trance to the otlice of the Clear Spring
Coal company on Saturday night ubout
30 o'clock. They forced open a window
in rear of the buildings. Their entrance
was undoubtedly of evil intent, and
ould have proved more serious hud
if not been for the approach of the
watchman. It was evident that they
vi re not near-sighted, as in their hasty
retreat they secured two pair of gold
boned spectacles belonging to A. Mel.
Dewitt. One of the miscreants lias
neglected to return for his hat. which
is awaiting him yet at the scene of
tile disturbance.
A Heavy Old Timepiece.
J. C. Bound, superintendent of con
struction for the W'ilkes-Barre and
"Wyoming Valley Traction company,
carries the largest -watch in -this re
gion. Its cases are of silver and weigh
nixteen ounces, and with the works the
timepiece -weighs two pounds. The
watch was presented to Mr. Bound in
1S67 by the track foreman on the old
Lackawanna and Bloomsburg railroad,
now the Bloomsburg division of the
Delaware, Lackawanan and Western
railroad, Mr. Bound being then track
master of the road. The -watch cost
$230, and when presented to Mr. Bound
it was considered to be the finest in
the state, the works being the very best
that could be procured. In these days
the taste in regard to watches ran in
the direction of heavy silver cases, gold
watches being rarely used by men.
"When Mr. Bound was trackmuater of
the Lackawanna and Bloomsburg rail
road he resided in Upper Pittston.
West Side Improvements.
"West Pittston Is not to be outdone in
improvements. At the meeting of the
town council recently Acock & Son, of
Trenton, N. J., were awarded the ton
tract of building the new sewer system
for a consideration of $23,000. The fal
lowing streets will be sewered: River,
York, Exeter, Luzerne, Montgomery,
the entire distance; Wyoming, from
Philadelphia to Hlver; Uelaware, from
Fifth street to the Klver; also Daman,
Salem, Fremont and Elm streets, above
the railroad. The Klver street sewer
will extend to the end of Boston ave
nue, where It will empty Into the river.
It will be the main and only outlet of
the sewerage system.
Notes of General Interest.
There are many persons who believe
that citizens of the Second ward will
make no mistake by voting for John
Jordan for alderman of that ward. Mr.
Jordan, they argue, hns all requisites
necessary to fill such an Important of
fice, and they cite the fact that he has
serveil five consecutive terms as Jus
tice of the peace of the upper district.
Politics entirely apart, it Is generally
admitted that he Is a man of sterling
character and of strong Judicial abil
ity. He 'is well known throughout the
city as an estimable gentleman.

INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.
A prominent sales ugent states that
weather like tho present makes a differ
ence of 100,000 tons u (lay in tho consunip-
tlon of anthracite coul throughout the
country.
A better demand for domestic sizes of
coal Is reported, both In the local market
and In tho eastern ami western coul truile.
It is duo to tho extremely cold weath'T.
It hus not udvuneeil prices and has hardly
the effect of steadying them.
Lehigh und Wilkes-Harro railroad olll-
elals uro taking Initiatory steps to prevent
tho deluge of their mines. Anticipating
the nearness of a. thaw a. large force of
men Is opening all tho ditches In tho vicin
ity of tho collieries, which have been' to
tally blocked by snow for some weeks.
Tho American Steel company's works at
Thurlow are very busy, and more men
will be needed to keen pace with tho or
ders. Oneof tile largest castings ever made
there Has the bed ot : the gun curruigo eust
on .Monday. Its weight Is is. WW pounds,
und I for the Crumps. Owing to the press
of work It hus become necessary to place
the plants at Nunistown and Slmioii in
operation.
The bureau of anthracite coal statistics
reports shipments of unthruclto coal for
Jumiury ut 3,003,034 tons, an Increase of
375,r,iy tons -us computed with the same
mouth or last yeur. The total production
for the twelve months ended Jan. 31 was
3,tul,;.ll tons, an increase or 375.51:! tons us
compared with tho corresponding period
of the previous year. The stock on hand
at tidewater decreased .i),7;i7 tons uunng
Junuary.
The tire In the Huzle mine Is niaklm;
headway. The third bore bole has been
completed, but the great trouble that now
confronts tho lire lighters is a scuivity
of water. The tiro ruges lleively and sev
eral times during the past torty-ciglit
hours the men were driven from the
mine on account of the Intense heal. The
damage done ulreudy Is estimated at $70,-
OW. As a last resort It may be necessary
to wall in the tire und prevent the spread
ing of the names to the solid beds of coal
adjoining.
The Pittsburg und Kustern railroad has
taken the necessary letjul steps to increase
its cupital stock from $L',7."i0,OiiO to $.",0U0,-
OiiO. This Is the company which was
formed some time ago b? the consolida
tion of three companies contemplating
the construction of railroad llaes througn
the western portion of the state, an I
whose united rouds ure to form a line
from Mahaftey, on the Beech Creek rail
road, to West Newton, on the Pittsburg,
McKeosport and Youghlogheny. Work
upon tho new line Is to be begun in the
spring.
The coal trade editor of the New York
Engineering und Mining Journal thinks
that the prospects for un Improvement , in
that trade from the point of view of the
producers and the railroads are not
very bright. "Only the impossible name
ly, an Iron-clad trust can make li'Xi a
prosperous year for them, and the Impos
sible, unlike the unexpected, never hap
pened. At this writing It does not look
probable that any new plan will ne agreed
uoon. The chances are that after more
or less squabbling the companies will ac
cept percentages which will toot up uuoiit
115. and trv to make the best or It, trust
ing in Provldenco to escape the inter de
moralization of the last quarter or 15.:i.
A leading coal producer said recently,
within the rearing of the Philadelphia
Times: "All this talk of the Heading be
ing ablu to Increuse its tonnage by smusli
ing the market Is nonsense. Parties wno
are indulging in that kind of prattle dis
close a. deplorable lack of knowledge of
the physical equipment of the various
properties. As a matter of fact, if each
Interest should produce to Its full capac
ity, as Reading threatens to do. Reudin
i-oulif not, under uny circumstances, pro
duce more than Its present quota or 2).
per cent, of the total. The greater its
output under artificial conditions the
greater would be the incentive of compet
itors to keep pace. The result would bi
no change In the proportions and bank
rupt prices."

SUBJECTS FOR THE DEBATE
Hills That Kill 15e Considered by
Connrcss Uiirini the Week..
HOI'15 l'OK A TALK ON FINANCE
A Bill to Authorize, tho Uuildlng of Dams
One Hundred 1 cot High Across Two
Minnesota Rivers to Como be
fore tho House.
By tho United Tress.
Washington, Keb. 16. With llvo ap
propriation bills still unacted upon and
but two weeks more of this s sslon be
fore It, the senate will not be inclined
to discuss matters other than appro
priation bills this week. The hope of
getting a vote in tho senate on the va
rious financial proposition! lias not been
altogether abandoned. It Is believed
that some agreement may be reached
after the sundry civil bill is out of the
way. The coming week will be required
to pass the Indian bill and the sundry
civil bill, which will be reported tu the
senate tomorrow.
Tomorrow will be suspension day In
the house, and arrangements have been
made by which gentlemen in churge of
several measures that have hitherto at
tracted more or less attention und oc
cupied a greater or less amount of time,
will be recognized to usk that they
be passed under suspension of the rules.
Among these are the following:
The bill to increase the elllcleney of
the revenue marine service by estab
lishing a retired list In connection there
with. This bill is earnestly advocated
by the treasury department, and Is be
lieved to have the support of a large
majority of the house, but hitherto Mr.
Clark (l)em., Alo.) has been successful
In taking It out of place and prevent
ing a Vote.
The bill to equalize the pensions of
the veterans of the Mexican war, mak
ing them $1- under thc general law.
The lllg ILiin Dill.
The bill to nulhoiize the construction
of dams across the St. Louis and t'lo
quet rivers. Minnesota, by the Alta
monte Water company. This proposi
tion involves the largest project ever
undertaken In the west the construc
tion of a dam 100 feet high, 700 tout in
thickness ut the base, und 100 feet
wide at the top. Tiimarily,' It Is under
taken to supply the city of Huluth with
water; Incidentally, a power estimated
at CuO.000 horse power will be developed
that may be used for manul'notuiing
und commercial purposes. Hot ween
the city and source of supply Is a range
of low hills about loo feet high, ami
the dam is necessary to curry the water
over that.
The passage of the bill lias been
recommended by the committee on In
dian affairs (which had jurisdiction be
cause the building of the dam would
Hood the Fon Du Lac reservation), but
a minority of the committee Interpose
a vigorous dissent, because, for one
reason, they are not satislled with the
financial ability of the water company
to carry out the project; that it has
"many of the unstable features of a
boom, which if not carried out would
end in destroying confluence in the re
sources of that section of the country
and would partially retard Its prog
ress." Speaker Crisp has notified tho gentle
men in charge of these several meas
ures that they must have a quorum
on hand to promptly dispose of them,
or they will be required to give way
to other business. The consideration
of the naval appropriation bill and of
the general deficiency bill, which Sir.
llrecklniidge has given notice he will
call up as soon as the former Is out of
the way, will probably occupy the rest
of the week, save Saturday, which has
been set uiiart for the delivery of
eulogies upon the late Senator Vance,
of North Carolina.

TO OUR
Washburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their many pats
rons that tlicv will this year hold to their usual custom
of milling Si RICTLY OLU WHEAT until the new crop
is fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, ana
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 threa
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to every detail of milling haa
placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above other
brands.
