One week ago Davis Joined the Salva
tion Army at Wllkes-Barre. At the
time of the lawless occurrence in Ex
eter suspicion was directed toward a
gang of tough young men to which
Davis Is said to have belonged. The
officers went Into the Salvation bar
racks, at the corner of Canal and Jack
son streets in Wllkes-Barre, and Inter
rupted the services to place Davis
under arrest. Oflleers are vigorously
endeavoring to collect enough evidence
to warrant them in bringing others to
justice, who are alleged to have been
Identilled with the barbarous episode.
Burned by a Mine Lamp.
A very serious accident occurred on
North Main street, which may yet
prove fatal. At 6 o'clock last evening
Jessie, the 13-year-old daughter of
Mathow Harrison, who resides with her
grandmother, near the Lehigh Valley
railroad crossing at the Seneca shaft,
was horribly burned by a mine lamp.
Jessie went to the cellar on an errand,
taking with her a mining lamp to illum
inate the dark recess. She set the lamp
down on the lloor of the cellar and In
some unknown manner her clothes be
came Ignited. She tried to extinguish
the flames but was unable to do so and
called for help, who soon smothered out
the burning clothes. The girl was
badly burned about the face and arms
but it 19 thought did not inhale the
flames. Her dress and outer garments
were entirely destroyed. When The
Tribune representative called at the
home of the grandmother this after
noon, the little patient was resting as

Philadelphia Press; The anthracite
coal companies are now Just where they
started when the movement lor harmony
began last fall. They have not squared
tho percentage circle as some, of them ex
pected, and tho whole problem Is as un
solved as when the presidents llrst met.
What Is to be done Is to divide up the
coal tonnuge among the coal carriers on a
basis which will be satisfactory and put
the agreement In force. This don t look
like a very, big job, but It has never been
accomplished for any length of time yet.
Mr. McLcod did about as well as anybody,
but his scheme did not last four months.
It Is proposed on Thursday to enter upon
another of these periodical agreements
which were so familiar In Mr. Gowcn's
days, which Mr. Morgan once brought
about and which havo been made several
times In the last three years. It Is not
known yet what terms will be made. It is
probable 4 hat In the end a very general
scheme will: be presented, as a number of
tho Interests involved are averse to mak
ing contracts. Such uji agreement would
Hot be carried out three weeks by all tho
companies, but it would serve a good pur
pose, perhaps. In putting an end to (he
ruinous war of prices which is going on In
New York and elsewhere. During last
year the coal companies worked on tho
faith cure principle. The representatives
of the trade would meet monthly and
soberly give their Judgment as to the de
mand of the trade for the succeeding
month, anil each company would ugree to
keep within tho limits proscribed. Thu
agreed upon tonnage was ovcrshlpped
from 141,471' tons In February to .,312,5u2
tons In June, and In October and July the
productlonabove the Judgment of the sales
agents as to the wants of the trade was
more than l.OoO.Ooo tons each month. The
absolute, Indifference to the ugreed upon
tonnage Is the cause of the late and pres
ent demoralization In prices, which fell In
194 from 3 to 90 cents por ton. The pres
ent price of stove coal ranges from J2.25
per ton to and not only can coal be
bought at theso figures for present dellv
try, but some parties are willing to make
future contracts. The latter is tho most
demoralising fact that has yet become
known.
Notwithstanding the embargo placed '
the Heading railroad upon coal from the
Lehigh Valley and Jersey Central roads
through Its recent Increase of freight
rates upon shlpinunts destined for points
in Philadelphia and along Its lines, large
quantities of Lehigh coal, according to the
Itocord, continue to reach that city
over the Reading's tracks and at the old
rate of freight. Indeed dealers along tho
Heading's lines llnd that there is no
trouble whatever In securing all the Le
high coal they want. This Is duo to tho
fact that connections have been made be
tween the Heading and the Beaver
Meadow, Treskow und New Boston rail
road, controlled by A. S. Van Wlckle, the
largest Individual operator in the Lehigh
region except t'oxo Bros. & Co., by which
coal from the i.'oleralno colliery, la the
very heart of the Lehigh region, now
linds its way to market over tho Heading.
The connection Is made at Treskow, where
the Beaver Meadow, Treskow and New
Boston road taps the Tiimnqun, Hazleton
and Northern branch of tho Heading
opening up a route over which large qtiitn-
titles of Iiehigh coal have been shipped In
tho past few months and will continue to
be shipped In the future. It Is Mr. A'un
Wlekle's Intention to push his road on to
New Boston, when ho will have connections
with all the rallroai's In the Lehigh re
gion and will occupy much the same In
dependent position us that now held by
Coz Bros. & Co. At Beaver Meadow.
where the Coleralne colliery Is located, tho
Lehigh alley tracks pass under tho
lirtaker, nnd by means of the Heaver
Meadow, Treskow and New Boston roads
connection Is made with the Heading und
Jersey Central lines. At Mllnesvllle, whe-e
another of Mr. Van Wlekle's collieries In
situated, the output goes over the Perm
sylvanla, and near St. Clair, where tho
Roberts colliery, also controlled bv him.
Is situated, the Pennsylvania la reached
again. The quality of tho coal from tho
('olernlnn colliery, which has a rapacity
of 2.000 tons a day, is folly up to the Lii-
hlgh standard, and It Is likely to prove a
formidable competitor to tho coals which
tho Lehigh Valley and Jersey Central
companies are sending Into Philadelphia
over tho Pennsylvania railroad. By his
connections with the Heuillng, Pennsyl
vania, Lehigh Valley and Jersey Central
roads, Mr. Van Wlckle becomes a for
midable competitor In the coal market
and really adds another lnrge producer
to tho number of those whose warring
claims have recently firodured such de
moralization In the anthracite coul trade,
