R. D. BTUART MARRIED.
Called to Miss Clara smith of West Pitts
ton at Five tXaloek Yesterdey-aa In
foraMl Wadding.
Tsstarday a S o'clock R. D. Stuart.
" city solicitor, was married to M1ss
Clara Smith, of West Plttston. The
marrlago was to have taken place some
time ago, but owing to the death of
Mr. Stuart's mother, the wedJlng was
postponed.
Hiss Smith la a niece of Mr. Pierce
Butler, of Canaan street, and her
father, Ray T. C Smith, was formerly
pastor of tha First Methodist church of
this dry.
The announcement that they were to
be .married yesterday was a great sur
prise, as It was not known when the
event would take place, even by the
most intimate friends of the con
tracting parties, until Wednesday.
I waa very informal, nobody being
present from this city except Mrs.
Pierce Butler), The newly married
couple will take a wedding tour for a
couple of weeks, during which time
they will visit Canada, the Thousand
Islands aad other .points of Interest.
On their return they will take up their
residence on Canaan street.
'Mrs. Stuart Is a lady of charming
personality and Carbtmdale social cir
cles are to be congratulated on the ac-
QmUfcUB LEAGUE.
AOs alow a Disbands aad There Are Hew
bat Fonr Class in the State Leasee.
The State lea cue received anothor
' Mow In the death of the Alterrtown
eluh. The Veasrue will still continue to
exist, however. The playing of thait
club nan been very poor of laite and the
managofnent baa' been losing money.
Wednesday night it was decided that
the club was a losing concern, and no
tice of the dashamfmeni was given.
This teares but four clubs In the
league, Carboodate, Hazleton, Potts
vflls and Lancaster. Probably the
league wUI not exist much longer, as
none of the dabs ere making money.

THE COUNTY LEAGUE.
Meeting at SeraatoaTala Afisraoon-Oly
pbaat Drops Oat but Simpson Will Take
Ha Place.
This afternoon the directors of the
County league will hold a meeting at
Scranton. Several matters of import
ance will be talked up, among which
Will toe the advisability or ha ving an of
clal umpire. The benefit of this oain at
once be teen by those who atter.ded the
Jermy-n Young Men's Christian associa
tion game, at Alumni park. Wednes
day. There waa much kicking on the
decision of the umpire which a regularly
appointed umpire would have prevent
ed. It Is to be hoped tht the manage
ment will reaiih some decision la regard
to this matttr. as It Is very annoying to
the spectators to have a game break up
every time the umpire give a close de
cision. The County Umgue Is a good thln for
anu-teur base lull In this city. There
is a charm and vim about amateur ball
that professional ball does not exiilte.
To know thut a nun Is playing ball to
cam his bread robs it of some of Its
plea-ure. It Is entirely different In
amateur ball, where the different con
testants put all thulr strength and sk.ll
ln;o the g.mte. The attendance thus far
In Cirbomlule. with the exception of
Wrdneclay's game, has not been very
largo. It Is to be hoped that the league
will become more popular and the at
tendance larger.
The Alumni '(earn h's playerd two
fft.me tut lth times were defeated.
This a not due to superior playing tin
the part of thulr ojipxir.ei.ts. for the
home team put up by far the 'better
rime. The game played with Olyphant
will protatly not 'be counted, as that
team has dt elded to drop out of the
It-ague owing to .he la?k of a fenced
Hold.

KEWS OF OUR INDUSTRIES
Bappanlngs of Interest to the Staple
Trades and Partlaslarly to tha Trade
la Iron, Steal and Anthraoits Coal.
A bid of K per ton was made at
Chicago on a proposal for 8,200 tons of
anthracite coal. The lowest price ever
reached before woe 14.50.
Anthracite coal kn a vein four fee
thick has been discovered in the Line
mountain, which, bounds Schuylkill and
Northumberland counties, on the south
side, near Pitman, in the former county.
Edward Reed has resigned his posi
tion foreman at tihe Honey Brook
stripping of Crawford ft Dugan to ac
cept a position as superintendent of a
new mine to be opened near St. Clair
by Seranton capitalists.
The advance in wire nails of 20 per
cent, on Augyl, making a total advance
of over 100 per cent., Is due to restric
tion of production, as a result of an
agreement among1 the manufacturers.
Stocks ere practically absorbed.
The Pardee collieries are working the
poorest timeof any mines in the Hazleton,
region. On an average they only mako
three days a week while the other break
ers are working to their full capacity.
This Is mostly due on account of the
kick of ca.rs which la furnished to that
company.
The Heading1 Railroad company in
constructing a nvw elding at Spring
'Mountain, and when completed it will
give them a large measuro of aid In
transporting coal from itha Coleralne
colliery. Trains cun be pulled up the
hvavy grade In small detachments to
the new siding, which is at the Bumnilt
of th hill.
Henry Vincent, general superinten
dent at the Patterson colliery, and Isanc
Clees, outside fotenvanait the same place,
ihuve Invented a method of cleaning
coal once discarded by having been
placed on a culm bank and now have
men engaged at constructing two build
ings, that wlH take the plaice of a wash
ery, with a capacity of 4.000 tons per
day.
"There is a our famine on the Penn
sylvania, Lake Shore, and Baltimore
and Ohio roads," ay W. P. Itend. or
Chicago. "Th'?so companies have at
leant a third more transportation orders
than th?y can mil. The Iron trade in
Western Prinnsylvanla and Nortihern
Ohio ta more nctlve than it has been in
five years. The lallroads will have a
tremendous boom this fall, If present
crop Indications meun anything, and I
tell you that ccal wilt fairly jump wim
In ninety days. Soft coal Is selling now
In caiload lots for from $1.25 to fi per
ton, but It will not do so long."
The Brooke Iron company, of Birds
boro, posted notices in its rolling mill
raying that, taking effect Aug. 1, they
will pay 12.75 per gross ton for pud
dling: 27 cerits per heat to be paid out
of the 12.75 to the helier8. Other labor
in the puddle mill will be advanced pro-.
portlonately. The present price or pud
dling is $2.50 per ton, and the helpers
get 26 cents per Jieat. The Brooke Iron
company has commenced active prepa
rations to get No. 2 furnace into masr.
The furnace has been Idle for nearly
three years. Its capaci ty Is 500 tons per
week, and gives employment to 125 men.
The company now employs over 600
men in all Its departments.
pv.itsburg, July 25. The iron and nte?l
trade has been In such a rush for a
tlmo thai manufacturers having orders
far ahead are content to watt awhlte
and let the market titans! where, it Is.
But while tha market this week Is
eal?r, there is nothing like weakraesa
apparent. In all lines prices are fully
up to last week's quotations, witn De
mand firm and steady. The indications
for fall trade ere decidedly gratifying.
For tihe first time In several weeks
there has been no advance In the price
of pig Iron. Furnaces are pushing pro
duction, but ptocks are not accumulat
ing. The new price for steel rails la
now $27. Platso, blooms and billets are
very much In demand, with prices ad
vancing with mill capacity crowded and
high figures offered for Immediate de
livery, which Is very difficult to eecure.
There Is also great activity In mer
chant nteel, with former prices quoted.
Philadelphia Press: "The Reading
railroad has reduced the price of coal
In this city 15 cents per ton this week.
The other companies will meet the cut.
The official city circular prices for coal
are as follows:
Broken $2.20
Krg 2 M
.Stove 2-r.5
Chestnut 2.40
No explanation is given for the re
duction, but the trade believes that It
is necessary to move the Reading's
coat. The production Is ahead of the
consumption and has been for romo
time, but the Beading and all the other
companies ore keeping up their ship
ments to a certain proportion of the out
put, and the result is that the stocking
places for coal are full and a good dfal
of coal Is standing In cars. It Is neces
sary In such a casa to sell coal. The
reduction In the price brings stove coal
down in $1.80 net to tihe Heading com
pany, which Is the lowest price for
many years. Up to last Monday the
selling prices for coal were 60 cents be
low these figures. Since Monday the
Reading has been selling at 5 cents
below tihe circular. The reduction, it
is understood, was made in order to
move coal. It Is ummiiaJ to disturb
prices In this market. The price of an-
thraclteceul In this market hns not been
as low since 1S77 as It Is now."

patent medicines, some by inhaling; medi
cated vapors, and. In fact, every method
Imaginable has been resorted to to Und a
cure for this dreaded disease, but the. king
oi cures is the method used by Dr. F. It,
