from ',4 to 2 per cent, was recorded.

ception,, the preferred sold up nearly
four points on the belief that the com

INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.
The bulletin of the American Iron
and Steel association says that an ad
vance will soon be made In the price of
steel rails to the old figures of $24 per
ton.
The Reading's coal tonnage last week
was about 11.000 tons greater than the
preceding week, but compared with the
corresuondlng week last year, It was
21,165 tons greater, the totals being
240.127 tons, against 201,292 tons. The
figures are not especially significant
being close to those given out weekly
for the past month or more. For the
year to date the company's tonnage
has aggregated 6,494,032 tons, against
6,738,172 tons for the same period last
year, an Increase of 755,859 tons.
It Is stated that S. M. Felton, former
ly vice president of the Erie railroad,
has been offered the presidency of the
New York, Susquehanna and Western.
Simon Borg, the president, will retire.
The directors say that the July Interest
will be paid and that no receivership Is
necessary. The management, however,
Is to be thoroughly everhauled and
competent men placed in charge of
every department. The reports of a
change in control by which the prop
erty will bo manngedln' the Interest of
some other road are pronounced to be
utterly without foundation.
Philadelphia Record: Anthracite coal
men take a gloomy view of the pres
ent situation, little or no relief having
been afforded by the three days' alter
nate working agreement. So far as
the presidents are concerned, no efforts
are being made to bring about more
amicable relations and restore the
trade to something like a paying basis.
Vice President Sayre, of the Lehigh
Valley Coal company, said yesterday
that so long as the Reading railroad
was determined to have a certain per
centage of the output there was no ap
parent disposition on the part of the
others to bring about a compromise,
and the result was that hundreds of
thousands of tons of coal were being
sold today for less than It cost to put
It on the cars. President Thomas P.
Fowler, of the New York, Ontario and
Western railroad, is equally pessimis
tic, and summed up the situation as
follows: "It must be admitted that
the anthracite coal trade and traffic
are in a deplorable state. Notwith
standing restriction on the basis of
working all collieries half time, mar
kets at tidewater in the east and
inrougnout new England are over
stocked, and prices and rates are com
pletely and utterly demoralized. The
production this year already exceeds
that of last year by more than 2,000,000
tons, and coal is freely offered at less
than $3 a ton at New York, Boston
and other tidewater points. This sit
uatlon means to the producer and an
thraclte coal-carrying roads the actual
loss of many millions of dollars. In
shore conditions are even more dls
couraglng, and the future less nrorhis
ing than for the last four or five years.
Efforts have been made to bring about
a better state of affairs, but every
attempt in the right direction has been
defeated and has utterly failed. There
seems to be no one among the large
companies who is able to control or
regulate the anthracite coal business."

ARCHBALD.
Emll Jasekey, whose dead body was
found In the river at Plymouth on Sun
day last, was well known here, wherej
he had uvea for several years. He
boarded with Henry Bussly, on Hill
street. Last week he left home and
nothing was heard concerning him un
til his dead body was found. He was
Identified by means of a receipt for
box rent given him by Postmaster
O'Rourke. Josckey had no relatives
here. He was burled in Plymouth on
Monday afternoon.
TJie board of trade held an, interest
ing meeting on Monday evening. Sev
eral communications were read from
manufacturers, tfnd the secretary was
directed to confer with one, a manu
facturer of tools who desires to change
his foundry. A committee was also ap
pointed to draft resolutions conveying
the thanks of the board to Mrs. Hack
ley, of Tarrytown, N. Y., for her gener
osity in establishing and maintaining
a kindergarten here.
The kindergarten, to which reference
has already been made, will be opened
In September. The ground floor of the
German church has been rented for a
short time because of its central loca
tion and the ample play ground that
surrounds It. It Is the intention of Mrs.
Hackley to erect a building suitable for
ku.Nergarten work provided the at
tendance will warrant It. The school
will be strictly non-sectarian and chil
dren of every faith and nationality are
cordially welcomed to share the bene
fits of the school. It Is Mrs. Mackley's
intention to make the school a' place
of training for all the children, and she
Is particularly careful that no distinc
tion be made In race or creed. The usa
fulncps of the kindergarten has every
where been recognized and the piople
of Archbald may congratulate them
selves on their good fortune In being
permitted to enjoy Its benefits with lit
tle or no expense to them. It Is earn
estly hoped that they will show their
appreciation of airs. Hockley's kind-
ness by giving the kindergarten all
possible encouragement and making It
the success It deserves to De.
The school board will meet this even
ing for the purpose of fixing the tax
rate for the ensuing year.
The borough council met on Tuesday
evening, President Lane and Council
men Jones, Dougher, Gltmartln, Wag
ner and Klelnbauer having been pres
ent. The following bills were ordered
paid: John J. Fahey, $7.45 on Traction
company Injunction; Crescent Electric
Light company, $187.50; John Carden,
$8; William. Dougher, $4; Patrick Kin
ney, $5.20; John J. Fahey, $4.05; Thomas
Law, $2.50; Patrick Dunleavy, $3.50; M,
Ready, $4; pathmoster's time for May,
$279.80. The resignation of E. F. Blake
from the council because of removal
from the ward for which he was elect
ed was presented and accepted. Mr.
Jones nominated A. J. Mullen to fill
the vacancy, and John J. Dougher
named John Manley. Mr. Jones subse
quently withdrew Mr. Mullen's name,
and Mr. Manley was unanimously
chosen. A petlitlon from citizens of
South Main street, asking for the erec
tion of an arc electric light at Healy s
alley, was iread and their request was
granted. George Lorenz complained of
the condition of the ditch In front of
his premises and the pathmaster was
instructed to Improve It. Mr. Dougher,
of the road committee, to which was
referred the laying of cross-walks, re
ported that 1,424 lineal feet of stone
would be required for that puriose.
The committee was directed to ascer
tain the probable cost of laying them.
Complaint was made that there was
discrimination In the employment of
workment on the borough roads, an
old man from the Third ward having
been laid off without any apparent
cause. This led to a heuted discus
sion, In which all the council Joined.
Mr. Jones said the present system of
Btretit improvement was a sham and
Mr. Gllmartin agreed with him. Mr.
Dougher etaited that the present sys
tem was as good as any when no large
stated contract work was to be done.
Others favored the employment of old
taxpayers to ithe exclusion of contrac
tors. During the discussion the road
machine, which the council has not
used in several years, came In for a
great deal of consideration. The dis
cussion settled none of the questions
raised. A letter -was read from Attor
ney Reynolds, of Carbondalo, concern
ing a claim of damages asked by M.
Morrison, whose h-rse fell Into the
trench of the Archibald Water company
early In May. No definite action was
taken on the matter.

A MAN DOOMED TO DIE.
Saved at the Lost Uonr A Reprieve Grant,
cd by Dr. P. D. Smith and Staff at 312
- Wyoming Avenue The Most Powerful
Magnetic Physician Living.
Mr. A. 8. Berry, en old resident of Scran
ton, now residing on Kast Market street,
has been a confirmed Invalid for the past
nine years. Before entering Into a de
tailed account of his sufferings we desire
to state that those physicians who have
been practicing for the past quarter of a
century or more will remember that In
former days when a physician was In
doubt of the nature of the patient's dis
ease it was customary to call it LIVE it
COMPLAINT, but in Mr. Berry's case
there was a genuine uffection of the liver.
Ho formerly resided in Saginaw, Michi
gan. It was at a tlmo when people suf
fered from fever and aguo ull throughout
that section of the country to such an ex
tent that they would literally shnko their
Joints loose. Kveryone suffered from ma
laria and It was at this time Mr. Berry
contracted malaria which brought r.n
chronic CONGESTION OF TUB LIVER.
At the time when ho consulted Dr. F. 11.
Smith and staff some six weeks ago and
commenced treatment Mr. Berry's counte
nance had the appearance of an old parch
ment; he had wasted to a mere skeleton;
his skin was dry and hursh. The muscles
of his arms ami legs hud nearly perished,
while the liver and abdomen was consider
ably distended, ho suffered from a con
tinual pain In the right side under the
short ribs. On making a pressure over the
liver ho complulned from sorenesH unci
great tenderness und suffered from ob
stinate constipation. When his bowels
did move the stools were light or cluy col
ored and his urine whs loaded with bile.
lwo or three hours after eating tho nnln
In the right side increased In violence until
It Decame almost unbearable. The i,!n
extended from the region of the liver to
tne duck and radiated to the shoulder
bludes. Whenever the stomach heciimo
empty ho would experience a gnawing fol
lowed iy a deathly sinking sensation
which was only relieved by eating, and ev
erything he nto produced sueh distress
that he wns Hterully starving hlnmelf to
death. When we take Into consideration
that all fat? and oils are digested In the
uuouenum and by a How of pancreallc
fluid into this organ one can read! I v see
that anything that deteriorates these
ninus or changes the r natural course nro
duces serious results, such as catarrhal In
flammation of the duodenum with all tho
symptoms of dyapcpnlu, but with this dif
ference: In dyspepsia the distress comes
on Immediately, while In affection of the
duodenum the distress Is not experienced
for an hour or more. The first sten taken
by Dr. Smith for Mr. Berry was to remove
three larse pile tumors. He then admin
istered two magnetic treatments each
week. The results WKIIK MAGICAL.
He has gained eighteen pounds of Mesh und
Is now convalescent. To see that ho is de
lighted faintly expresses his gratitude for
what tho doctor has done for h m. He
says, procla'm It to everyone In the high
ways and Dy-waya. consultations free.
