Three weeks ago Miss Mamie Duffey, of this city, caused a warrant, on the charge of breach of promise, to be Is sued for the arrest of John McDonald, a young man who tends bar for his brother, proprietor of the Keystone ho tel. In the West End. When the war rant was Issued McDonald disappeared, It is alleged; but he returned three days ago and entered ball before Alderman Ehret for his appearance at court. About 6 o'clock this evening Miss Duf fey, unannounced, entered the barroom of the Keystone hotel and dashed the contents of a vial of vitriol at the face of McDonald, who stood behind the bar. He got out of the way In time to save his face from horrible dsflgurement. The corrosive llqlud burned the young man's clothes, but did not burn him. Constable Fear arrested her and she was given a hearing before Alderman Gibbons. Her brother, Martin Dffey, and an uncle, William Barrett, quail fled as bondsmen In the sum of $1,000. Cocking Mnln at Smlthvillc. A lively cocking main took place at Smlllivllle this afternoon, In which birds from Hamtown and Pittaton com peted for a purse of $25. The first birds were placed In the pit at 3.30, Hamtown pitting a shalley at four pounds and twelve ounces against a Plttston bird at four pounds and eleven ounces. The fight lasted twelve min utes and was very hotly fought. The Plttston bird turned its tall in search of cooler quarters. The second battle was called at 4 o'clock, Hamtown pit ting smokey gray against Plttston's black red, each bird weighing four pounds and four ounces. The Plttston bird was knocked out In nine minutes. This decided the main In favor of the Hamtown birds. In the second fight the Plttston bird had tho misfortune to stick himself several times. Three other battles were fought,. In which Hamtown won the first and Plttston captured the last two. Many Plttston sports were looking very doleful ns they wended their way homo with but a few pence In their pockets. Doughor'a Store Burglarised. Mathew Dourjber's general store was broken into late Saturday night. The miscreants entered by the front win dow. The money drawer was broken Info, but the thieves were not compen sated for their trouble. Mr. Dougher's family, who live near the store, were awakened by the noise. By the time they appeared upon the scene the-burglars hnd escaped. They took nothing of value. Personal and General Notes. At 9 o'clock thia evening a gust of wind blew the algn of the Water street bridge from its hangers. It came to the ground with a crash, startling the people In the vicinity of Water street. The auditors of Plttston township met at the Cork Lane school house lust evening and the accounts of ex-Supervisor Mitchell failed to materialize. The auditors decided to give Mm until next Thursday night to produce his accounts, and falling to do so, to Isbus a commitment, 1 James Cawley, tha enterprising shoe merchant, Is in New York city.

(J a ten. In February 29,8i;9 tons of Iron and Btcel were imported Into this country from Great Britain, as compared with 10,585 tons last year, and 30.S:'.U tons In ls'JJ. Charles Merrlek, of Avoca, has accepted a position as assistant Inside foreman at the Evans Mining company's Beaver Meadow colliery. He has already assumed his duties. The Btoek of coal on hand at tidewater shipping points, Feb. 23, 1895, was U30,US tons against 700,17(1 tons on Jan. 31, show ing a decrease of G9.51S tons, or 9.9 pur cent, during the month. The Prlmroso colliery, cast of Delano, owned by the Delano Land company, will shortly resume operations, after having been Idle nearly a year. Tho colliery will give employment to 400 men and boys. The Bloomsburg Cur Manufacturing company bus received an order for a large number of flat cars for the Mexican government. The order will keep the shops busy'for over a year. The contract was secured over the heuds of several English firms. The -committee of five which wns ap pointed to determine, the percentages of the anthracite, coal tonnage to which the different railroads are entitled, will. It Is slated, havo its report ready for presenta tion at t ho meeting of the presidents of the roads on Thursday, Philadelphia Press: A record for rapid rail rolling wus mudo by the South works of the Luekawanna Iron and Steel com pany, at Scranton, for the week ended March 9. The converting mill made C,IH2 tons of ingots in eleven turns, and the South rail mill rolled C.2U1 tons of finished rails. It Is asserted that at last week's meet ing of the presidents. President Sloan, of the Lackawanna, Introduced a resolution calling for an average advance In prices of coul of 25 cents per ton. None of those present denied that such an advance was advisable, but for some reason Mr. Sloan's resolution was laid on the table and the proposed advance deferred; the matter will probnbly be brought up again at next Thursday's meeting. A rumor was cur rent that the Reading demanded a speci fied Increase In its percentage of the coal output, and a heavy money indemnify in esse a violation of agreement. This ru mor was emphatically denied by officials who a ttended the meeting, nnd they slu'ed further that the quoutlon of Increased al lotments to the companies entitled to It formed no important part of tho day's discussion. Interest generally was cen tered on the question as to how a basis for ro-allotlng percentages could be reached. It was held by the companies whoso working days in 189i aggregated only 185 days, because of restricting their output, that to take the figures for that period as representative of their capacity would be unjust, especially when It was considered that some of tho companies which overproduced their allotments worked a larger number of days. Of the demand made by. President Roberts and AT- FOR THE' President Harris for statistics on rates, little is sulil. This point Is conceded to be a new and Important factor in the situa tion, but it Is believed, at the same time, that with Its solution the question of re allotlng percentages will be very much nlmplllled. STOCKS AND BONDS. New York. March 25. Speculation at the Stock exchange was mora active than for ii long time past. Prices moved up und down with great frequency, but tho ten dency throughout was upward. There was a disposition nt one time to accept profits, and thia accounts for tho Irreg ularity of certain Issues like General Elec tric nnd Jersey Central. Genoral Electric, for Instance, which scored a gain of near ly 8 points fast week, advanced about 1 per eenit. during the first hour. This brought out long stock and a drop to 37 took place. Subsequently there was a receovery to 37, closing lower on tho day. Jersey Central started with a gain of 2V4 to Wj, then relumed to !Wi and rallied to 07.

Tho anthracite ooalers wero tnken on reports thnt the presidents at ft meeting on Thursday will adopt meas ures to strengthen prices. It Is also be llved that allotments will be decided upon.
