of Interest.
(Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Plttston, Pel). 20. The flint city elec
tion Is now to be recorded In the history
of the past. The new o!Ucern are very
jubilant over their sui-vesti, though !'
defeated candidates are well pleased
over the excellent showing which they
juude at the pulls. Now we are a full
Hedged city and ready for improve
ments. As hus already been proven to
the satisfaction of the citizens of Kiist
und West' I'ittston, we have one of the
most effectual lire departments in this
section of the state. They ure not only
nelf supporting, but very vigilant In
their duties. At present we wish to
bring before the minds of the people the
3-:ugle Hose company. No. 1. It Is one of
the most progressive tire departments
in Northeastern lVnnsylvanla, and was
organized In 1S57 by the town's most
loading citizens. Within five year Its
progressive character W4 displayed by
the erection of a large und commodious
house on Kennedy street. The com
pany won for itself much renown by its
devotion to the cause for which it was
Incorporated. The old "Mack Maria"
cart was lugged to the tire by hand.
Through various graduations this prac
tice was continued until last year, when
the company by Its own strenuous ef
forts equipped Itself. In ISTti the old
building was damaged by t'.rc, their old
tower being consumed. Efforts were ut
once made to more fully equip their
headquarters. They were very success
ful in their endeavors, and were uguln
In a very substantial condition, when,
In 1S2, tire agalu destroyed their build
ing. The progressive character of
the company came to the sur
face and the building, the pride
of .the town, now used by them,
iis erected at a cost of $7.00. upon
which there still stands a debt of J4.700.
In ISsS. the company, ut an expenditure
of $4.6tK), bought their handsome Britton
engine, and they were obliged to she
their notes In payment. Withing three
years this Immense debt was cancelled
and they Incurred the expense for the
building ubove mentioned. Last year,
undaunted by their incumbrance, at a
cost of t'S2j per team. $4M for wagon
and 5100 for harness, they equipped
themselves second to no other organl
lation In this section. Out of the above
amounts the firemen themselves con
tributed $103, and the balance was car
ried by notes, for which the company's
members are responsible. Our people
should remember this generous work on
the part of the boys at their "old time
fair" which commences tomorrow,
Feb. 21.
lie Used a Raior.
At about 10 o'clock last night a man
named Hugh Riley became quarrel
some and created considerable disturb
ance near the polling place of the First
ward. He was requested by Constable
Monroe to desist, but did not. At a
second request Riley drew a razor
and slashed Monroe back of the left
ear, laying the flesh open to the bone
and breaking the razor. Riley was ar
rested and given a berth at the ex
pense of the city. This morning he was
taken before Burgess Maloney, who
bound him over to await a hearing.
Monroe la able to be about today.
Mary, wife of Patrick Cawley, died
last night at 12 o'clock from the eftects
of inflammatory rheumatism. The de
ceased was 60 years of age, and is sur
vived by her husband and sons, Patrick
and John. The funeral will take place
at the family residence Friday morning
at 9 o'clock with solemn high mass of
requiem at St. John's Catholic church.
Interment -will be made at Market
Street cemetery.

ber of years. Mr. Rped's home Is at
Milwaukle. Many friends of the happy
pair from Plttston will be In attend
ance. The concert given by Rice's Marine
band at the matinee, at Music Hall,

I'ittston. The company will appear at
Music Hall In a pleasing melo-drama,

All Delaware and Hudson mines yes
terday went on full time, until further or
ders. Anthracite stocks are so badly exhaust
ed that full time in all collieries by March
1 is generally expected.
There Is an abundance of work in the
Lehigh Valley shops, at Deluno, at pres
ent, und the men are now working thir
teen nours per day.
The coal tonnage of the Reading rail
road for the week ended Feb. 16 was
930 tons, an increase oVer the same week
last year of 41.217 tons; for the fiscal year
to date the tonnage amounts to 2,450.$
tons, against 2.37S.Sol tons for the corre
sponding period last year, an increase of
77.4i6 tons.
Pine Grove furnace, InCumberland coun
ty. Pa., which was banked part of Janu
ary, is in blast again. This Is one of tho
oldest furnaces In the Keystone state,
naving Been built as early as 1770. The
Rosei.a, furnaoe, at New Castle. Pa., it is
undestood. will put In a new blowing
engine soon.
The new wire mill of the Carnen'.er
Steel works, of Reading, Is raoldly ap
proaching completion and will be In
operation In a few weeks. The conrern
will manufacture the finest grades of steel
wire and will give employment to some
200 hands in addition to those already em
ployed In the works.
As railway affairs are now drifting it
will not be a great while bfore 75 per
cent, of passenger buslnesswlll be carried
at a 2-ccnt-a-mtlo rate. Sortie of the more
conservative lines are becoming alarmed
over the large sale of mlleaoro bookn,
while, on the other hand, many of the gen
eral passenger agents nre trying to rival
each other In the number of books sold.
The present condition of the pig Iron
market at Birmingham, Ala., is encourag
ing, and sales are Improving, many orders
In quantities of l.ftifj to .LOW tons being re
ported, with a. demand for all grudes.
The producers are not disposed to make
concessions to insure sales, and say that
they are taking no contracts at prices
now ruling for future delivery, beyond
four months for some small orders.
Coke production and ouput In the Con
nellsvllle region for the week ended Kel.
ft, were embarrassed lo considerable ex
tent by the cold weather. Shipments foil
ofT 1,5") cars and In production there was
a slump of 13,0 tons. It was with the
greatest dlffluclty that the railroad
handled any coke whatever on nrrount of
the snow blockade. In the general condi
tion of the trade thi're aro no new fea
tures. A great deal of annoyance to nfflclnls
and to employes has been occasioned on
the I.ehlgh Valley railroad by the sys
tem of passes for employes. Recently the
company adopted a plan of selling tick
ets to employes at the rain of half a cent
a mile, these to be good for the employe
and all dependent upon hlin. To ascertain
the sentiment of the men on the question a
meswnger ha been sent along the rond
to canvass, lie has a petition for signa
tures of those favoring the plan. At the
Hayre shops 4H1 men out of Mt signed It, nt
Wilkes-Hurre, 1(9 ier cent, signed It and nt
the South Ktiston shops 95 per rent. It s
quite probable the system will be nlopted.
Plttston (lazette: A gang of Delaware,
Iu'knwanna and Western company
workmen have begun the work of driv
ing a small bore hole near Kverhnrl's Isl
and to the Hooded vein of the llnllstcud
colliery. The greater part of tho water, lis
has been stated, bus been pumped out, but
there Is u steady stream, (i by 12 Inches,
pouring In and It Is necessary to keep the
large World's fair pump going night und
duy In order to keep the water down. At
present the steam power Is supplied to
the pump from the boilers ut the head of
the shaft. Tho pump Is located a great
distance from tho foot of the shaft, and
the steam transmitted through the pipes
condenses considerably. The bora will
be driven at u ikiIiU near the place where
the pump is located. Hollers will be erect
ed on the surface, and a steam pipe run
through the bore to tho pump. The great
er part of the flooded workings have be-n
re-opened and about 300 cars are hoisted
dally.
The Stockholder hits the nail squarely
on the head when it Buys: "There Is prob
ably no commodity In this country, with
so large a tonnage as anthracite coal,
which can he a readily controlled, and yet
there is no business In which the demorali
sation 1 so complete. The natural conclu
sion, therefare. Is that the anthracite
coal business tins not been and Is not
being properly managed. The solution to
the trouble has at all times been within
reach of the several Interests, but Jeal
ousies and a hick of business knowledge
have prevented them taking advantage of
the situation. With the business con
ducted on sound principles, there Is no
commodity In this country from which a
belter return could bo secured. Had
prices been maintained, and the supply
kept on a par with the demand, there I
no doubt that the Reading could have
earned more thon Its fixed charges, the
Lehigh Valley a dividend, and the Lehigh
Navigation, Jersey Central, the Iacka
wanna and the Delaware and Hudson
their full dividend rates. What the end
will be cannot be definitely foreshadowed
at this time." What the end ought to be
is thut the coal carrying railroads should
listen to reason, and not cut off their noses
to spite their faces.
Affairs In the coal trade have, In the
Stockholder's opinion, reached the stage
where a settlement must soon be effected,
or prices will go to pieces. This Is freely
admitted by all leading interests. The
execullvo otllcluls of tho coal companies
express themselves as confident that dif
ferences will bo adjusted. They admit,
however, that this will reipjlro consider
able time, and ulso that, ufter A now
agreement has been reached, It will bo a
long period before the trade can enjoy
the benefits. It Is an open question
whether the otllcluls referred to mean
what they say when they express them
selves us "confident that differences will
be uiljusted," as It Is no longer a. secret
that sonin of the compimles havu meas
ured their resources 'with u view to un
open war. The light. If It comes, will be
most Intense between tho Liickuwnnim,
the Delaware an. 1 Hudson ami the Ituuil
lng. Ah against the wealth and other ad
vantages, of tho Lackawanna and tho
Dcluwuro and Hudson, tho Heading hus
Its short railroad huul of 100 tulles down
gruile, against 100 miles of adverse grade
by tho companies operating In the Wyom
ing field. Whether this offset will be sutll
clcnt to enable the Heading lo come out
u winner remains to be seen.
STOCKS AMI BONDS.
New York, Feb. 20. The greut success
of the Kcliiiout-.Morgun syndicate, both
In New Yolk und London, created quite
it little bullish feeling on stocks, but un
fortunately for the ciuiiinlsslou houses
it did not bring with It any muleiial in
crease in business, lit fact, the suleB
were less than on Tuesday, amounting
to 1111,005 Mhares ugulnst 128,1119 on the
day mimed. The dullness, in face of the
enormous subscriptions iintl the vlrtuul
defeat of the free silver colnuge bill In
the senate, was disappointing, but tho
best opinion Is thut when the Import
ance of the efforts of the syndicate to
keep the government gold reserve Intact
is better understood, it will be reflected
In a brouder und higher market for se
curities generally. Already the ster
ling exehunges have commenced to
weaken on sules of bllln by bunkers
identified with the syndicate und tho
old government Issues have udvunceil
to u higher level. The new fours, for
which subscriptions were invited at
ll'.'U this morning, were bid for at IIS
ut the close of business. Probably tho
best feature of the deul Is thut con
tiderubly over a hall' of the new Issue
will be placed abroad. Tho commission
on gold disappeared entirely after the
announcement that J. P. Morgan had
turned in $1,123,000 gold to the sub
treusury In exchange for legal tenders.
This gold was the excess u mount re
ceived from members of the syndicate
and bidders for the bonds. The im
provement in stock prices ranged from
4 to Di per cent, ut the Grangers, An
thracite Coalers, Missouri Puclllc, Erie
and Western Union leading the Who.
The refusal of the senate to take up the
Patterson pooling bill hnd no Influence
on the market. Speculation dosed firm.
Net changes show advances of U to D.3
per cent., Dclawure und Hudson lead
ing. Tho range of today's prices for the na
tive stocks of the New York stock mar
ket are given below. The quotations aro

(ACTION
TO OUR patrons:
Washburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their many pat
rons that thev will thin vcar hold to their usual custom
of milling S1RICTLY 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 aro
of the opinion that it is already cured, and in proper
condition for milling. Wa-.hburn-Crot.by Co. will take
no risks, and will allow theXpew 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.
