; INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.
General Pnssenger Agent De Havon, of
the Chicago and West Michigan, has
elicited some Interesting rtatlstlcs from
the present widespread effort of travel
ing men to secure the r.doptlon by rail
roads of an interchangeable 5,0j0-mllo
ticket. He has gathered opinions from
the gene.al passenger ag. nts of sixty
three prominont railroads. Only a small
minority actively fuvor the adoption pf
the -ticket. Mr. Do Haven finds that re
ceipts from mileage books make up from
5 to 15 per cent, of the total passenger re
ceipts. Ho finds thut it would be Impossi
ble to confine tho use of the proposed
tickets to traveling men. Consequently,
its adoption would practically force a re
duction from 3 cents a mile to 2 cents a
mile on a large share of tho remaining S5
to 95 per cent, of the business. It Is also
agreed that the adoption of the proposed
book would result Anally In flut rates of 2
cents a mile.
Pending the settlement of the percent
age dispute, the anthracite coal trade re
mains stagnant. Almost no new orders
are coming in at the advanced prices, and
were It not that the companies books
were well tilled with orders taken ut the
low prices of March the trude would bo in
a state of congestion. These orders will
Inst for three weeks more, and by that
time the trade may be expected to be in
a better shape, that Is dealers will seo
the drift of affairs more clearly. So gen
eral Is the expectation now that prices will
break that the orders are confined to tho
barest necessities. While the companies
are standing up well for the new prices
there is plenty of coal In the hands of mid
dlemen, to be had on better terms, whllo
somo Individuals are reported to be selling
on the basis of $3 for stove In New York
harbors.
Not the least Interesting feature in the
anthracite situation,' according to the
1'hiludtlphla Record, Is the fact that pres
sure of a very decided kind Is being
brought to bear on some of these compa
nies by people who haveaway of enforcing
their demands. For example, R is a fact
that certain bankers have lately taken a
very decided Interest In coal, and have
talked with some plainness regarding the
matter to people with whom their coun
sels might be fruitful. Somo bankers
have held conferences with officials and
representatives of certain of the coal
roads other than Reading, and have given
them to understand that It would be de
sirable, in order to prevent disturbance of
loans, thut harmony should be re-estab
lished at the earliest possible moment In
tho coal trade. Further, there Is good rea
son to believe that the Yanderbllt Inter
ests in certain of tho great coal roads
have taken tho matter very much to
heart and have done a good deal of unob
trusive missionary work with so far prom
ising results. Under the circumstances,
it seems clear that a settlement of the coal
difficulties Is among the probabilities of
the near future, in spite of the bearish
chatter. Furthermore, it Is amung the ex
treme probabilities that this settlement
will be of a more permanent character
and on a broader basis than seemed prob
able a short time ago. It would not be at
all surprising If It brought about two or
three important changes in the positions
of tho vnrlous roads. For example, the In
dependent existence of the Susquehanna
and Western may be terminated in the
near future.
THE MOTOR MAN:
A motor man was Peter Brown,
An honest mason he;
For when two bells were rung on him
He rung "So mote'er be."
Tho' not an active Methodist,
He stood up every hour 1
To keep the people on the track
Whene'er he had the power. ' .
Although his heart was ever kind "
To children poor and rich;
He never thought to spare the rod,
And often used the switch.
He was not called a ladles' man,
And yet twas known full well
Thut when ho stopped upon the street
He wulted for a bell.
His speech and manners were precise;
Ho did not blunders make,
Although within the shop, they said,
He often made a brake.
He did not fear the Ills of lifo
No matter what their grade:
Because, to him, reverse's were
A portion of his trade.
He ne'er despised the humble poor -
Or teased tho wrecks of crime; 1
He would not run on any one, " i
Although he ran on time. 1 ' ;
Ho died one day, and o'er his head
They wrote this epigram:
'The trolley broke, he breathed his last
Within a current Jam.
And now beside tho power house
When midnight shadows grow
heard these words: "Pete Brown has
gone
Where he will dynamo."

The clerks of this borough request
that as far as possible the public try
and do their shopping before 6 p. m.
during the warm weather, and thus

bids fair to fall, and they ask the good
people of Jermyn to assist, so that they
may have a chance to enjoy the fresh
air during the hot weather.
