PATRIOTISM'S KItiHT.
Grand Array and Patriotic Societies to
Co-opcruto In the Last Production of
"Allutoouu" Foil Contest by Two Experts-Other
Interesting Now Features,
Including tho Opportunity to Own u
Live Pl.
Tonight's performance of "Alla
toona" at ithe Frothlnjrham for the
benefit of the new armory fund prom
ises to be the best attended perform
ance of all. It will be "patriotism's
night," the Grand Army of the He
public and the various patriotic so
cieties having: undertaken to provide
Interesting new features, In addition
to the greatly Improved production of
the thrilling war play. Among these
features will be the singing of the
Lyrlo club, the marvelous dunclng of
the Lallys, the child wonders; a stir
ring foil contest between two expert
Bwordamen, A. W. Jurlsch and Thomas
Foster; and last, but .not least, the
actor plfr. i .
This latter feature needs a word of
explanation. Every person attending
will receive a numbered ticket. One
of these numbers will entitle Its holder
to take away one of the star perform
ers of the enst, a trained and most In
telligent pig.
This will be the last opportunity for
Scrantonlans to see this admirable
drama of the great rebellion, Its pretty
scenery, stirring war scenes and mag
nificent tableaux, which have been so
greatly Improved that they merit a
second scrutiny even toy those who at
tended earlier in the week. All friends
of the Thirteenth regiment are urgent
ly requested to make this final per
formance the greatest success of the
series.
One of the largest "Allatoona" audi
ences of the week was that gathered In
the Frothtngham last night. The per
formance was the most creditable yet
given, which argues well for large au
diences this afternoon and evening.
The popular Lyric Glee club appeared
twice and were given as many hearty
encores. The two little Lally children,
one of whom dances to a violin accom
paniment played by the other, did
their act with a spirit and finish that
elicited rounds of applause. They will
appear In each of today's performances.
Today has been named in honor of
the Grand Army of the Republic, and
other patriotic orders. This afternoon
the prices to nny part of the house will
be 25 cents for children, and 60 cents
for adults. The admission to the upper
gallery tonight will be reduced to 35
FIRST SOD TIMED.
Preparations for Construction of New
Silk Mill licgun.
Civil and Mining Engineer William
Monsey, of William Connell & Co.,
turned the first sod yesterday morning
In the excavation for the foundation
walls of the new silk mill of James
Simpson & Co., on Cedar avenue, In the
Twentieth ward.
Contractor Peter Stlpp will build the
masonry of the substructure and his
employee 'are doing the excavating.
Mr. Monsey gave the measurements
and directed the course of the trenches.
No certain depth has been adopted to
go with the foundation. The quality
of the earth met with will govern the
matter. In one spot yesterday the dig
gers unearthed the "collars" and roof
supports that hod been used In an old
chamber in one of the drifts many
years ago. At this point It will be ne
cessRry to delve to a solid basis and
that will bring them down In the old
workings. It is the intention to go
deep enough to meet with a solid, sub
stantial bottom.
The factory will be situated 100 feet
clear of Cedar avenue. The front
measurement will be 156 feet 8
inches, and In length it will be 159 feet
4 inches. The dimensions of a boiler
room and engine room annex on the
lower side will be in feet 51 1-3 by
58 2-3. It will be a 1-story brick build
ing, eighteen feet high, with a slant
ing roof,
William Connell has signified his con
fidence in tho enterprise by donating
six acres of valuable ground as a
site. The excavation will be finished
In a week and without delay the rear
ing of the superstructure will begin.
When completed end in operation the
factory is credits with a capacity
equal to the employntvnt of 500 hands.

THE READINGSBIC DEMAND
Officials Arc Still Hopeful That It
Will Be Conceded to Them,
POSITION OP LEHIGH VALLEY
It Is Mining and Selling All the Coal That
It Can-Wbat Will tho Jersey Con
trat Do-Mny Withdraw from
the Agreement.
While the coal sales agents at their
meeting In New York on Thursday
failed to take action on 'the prices nnd
tonnage for May, or to accede to the
demands of the Heading for 21 per cent.
of the total output, there re many who
predict an c-ai ly settlement of the dim
culty. The fact that 4110 agents de
cided to meet aguln next Tuesduy Is
pointed to ns nn evidence that there
will be some temporary adjustment of
the situation. It It was not hoped that
a settlement would be reuched, tho
meeting would probably have broken
up In confusion nnd no time would have
been fixed for another conference.
One of the receivers of the Heading
'ullroud said yesterday, In an Interview
with The Tribune's Philadelphia rep
resentatlve, thut the outlook for the
Heading ultimately being awarded 21
per cent, of ithe coal output wus better
than It hud been, as some of the other
great coal carrying companies hnd
now come to recognize the justice of
the claim.
Declined to Affirm or Deny.
When usked in regard to the reported
fears of the ofllcluls of the Delaware
and Hudson company that to accede to
the Heading's demand would be but a
temporary settlement of the dlltlculty,
and would but pave the way' to a
greater demand by the- Philadelphia
corporation in 1S90, he declined to either
allh in or deny that this was the posi
tion of his company, but remarked that
the adherence to any terms Of settle
ment agreed upon, If such a settlement
should be reached, depended entirely
upon the faith of each company and
might be broken at any time If any
company felt Itself aggrieved.
In shaking of the report that the
Jersey Central intended withdrawing
from the restrictive agreement and or
dering Its collieries to work full time,
the, Heading ofllcer said he looked upon
this as only a temporary move upon the
part of the Jersey Central to secure Its
full quota for the month. He admitted
that the allotment for April to the Jer
sey Central, based upon the output of
Inst June, was unfair from the fact
that many of the Jersey Central's col
lieries were flooded during that month
and Its output was necessarily re
stricted. Mining All they Can.
An official of the Lehigh Valley ad
mitted yesterday that since the de
mand of the Reading for "1 per cent,
and Its refusal to arbitrate, the Lehigh
company had been going ahead, min
ing and selling all the coal they could.
In speaking of the probable effect upon
the tonnage of the road In the event of
Individual operators being compelled
to close down, the Lehigh official said
that the company could maintain Us
tonnage by working Its own mines to
their full caaclty, although this would
probably be an unfortunate thing to b5
compelled to do.
There is no doubt that the rumors an
to the local companies working full
time are not wholly devoid of founda
tion. It euoh ha the case, it la probable
that tho coal trade of Scranton will
witness a boom greater than has been
seen during the past two years.
COLONEL LEWIS VERY ILL.

HEROIC LITTLE GIRL.
She Saved Her Slstor but Lost Her Own
Mfo.
Annie Dungarbage, a little girl 11
years of age, residing at Mllwaukle, in
this county, met a brave death on
Thursday In saving the life of her two-year-old
sister.
The baby was about to fall into a tub
of boiling water which had been placed
on, the floor when her sister Annie ran
to prevent her fall. In doing so she
saved the little one, but overbalanced
herself and fell into the tub. Before
her mother could save her, she was
scalded to death,
GRASPED A LIVE WIRE.
Phllippl Scarola Electrocuted . Himself
Without Any Trouble.
Joroner Kelloy Impanelled a jury to
Inquire into the death of Phllllpl Scar-
cla, who was killed on Thursday even
ing by taking hold of an electric light
socket In the saloon of Santo Pugltano,
on Dundaff street, Carbondale. " 1
From the Information tendered the
jury it appears that Pugllano told some
customers that he had difficulty to
turn on the electric light In the toilet
room, when -Scarcia volunteered to cor
rect the defect.-He was told not to
Interfere with the light, but did not
pay any heed to the remonstrances
and grasped the socket, with the result
that his body became convulsed and
he was unable to release his hold.
As soon as those present pulled him
from tho socket, Dr. Bailey was sent
for, but life was found to be extinct.
The current which killed him was a
50-volt Induction current and rendered
more dangerous by Scarcia standing
on a wet floor, which established a di
rect ground current.
'The inquest was adjourned until 7.30
o'clock this evening.

Ing. With the change it Is hoped that
an announcement will soon be made
that Mr. Hughes has sufficiently re
covered to be pronounced out of dan

SCRANTON PLUNGERS LOSERS
Many Who Had Money on Margins Hur
ried to Attach' tho Furniture and a
Small Hank Account Scranton
Lotucs Aro Unknown.
Many a Scranton plunger who had
"put up" for margins through the local
agency of the Standard Grain and
Stock exchange of Buffalo, found him
self out of pocket yesterday morning.
The concern has failed with liabilities
of $250,000. It hud agencies In twenty
five cities.
The Scranton agency has been locat
ed In the Kaub building on Wyoming
avenue, since September, 1893. From
Its beginning It has had two defraud
ing managers, but in each case the
losses were promptly paid by the main
office.
John C. Allen, of Buffalo, was In fact
the "Standard Grain and Stock ex
change." He was arrested Wednesday
on the charge of misappropriating
$1,500 placed with him by Theodore
Metzger, of Elmlra, and made an as
signment. Of late the markets have
been going against Allen, and his losses
were large. He conducted bucket
shops In twenty-five cities in New
York state, Pennsylvania and Canada.
Tho Preferred Creditors.
The first preferred creditors are the
employes for salnries, then come his
attorneys for $5,000 tor legal services,
and afterward the creditors. No list
of assets' and liabilities has yet been
filed. The latter will amount to a
quarter of a million dollars. The as
sets are scattered through various
banks In the cities where shops were
operated, and cannot be ascertained.
Ills creditors will undoubtedly suffer a
great loss. All of the twenty-five
branch offices have been closed.
When the failure became known In
this city yesterday there was consid
erable hurrying about of customers
who had Investments with the
firm, Investigation revealed that the
only attachable property In Scranton
was the furniture In the bucket shop
and a small account In the Dime De
posit and Discount bank.
Dr. Haggenty secured an attach
ment on the bank account and
the telegraph orperator employed In
tho bucket shop attached the furni
ture. In the prothonotary's office
James W. Dunn was given an- attach
ment on the "property, money" and
Dime bank account of the defunct con
cern. Mr. Rich Departed.
When P. K. Rich, the manager, sud
denly left town a month ago it was
not known that the Exchange was in
straitened clrcumstunces. Rich neg
lected to pay a month's back rent, but
the Buffalo office paid it later. On
Wednesday a young man named Bol
ton, who has been In charge since the
departure of HIch, paid the rent up to
May 1, and notified Mr. Kaub that the
room would be vacated.
It Is Impossible to ascertain the lia
bilities In this city. The account In the
bank Is a small one.
