Street car service was at a standstill fof .several hours Saturday evening, caused by two collisions on the curve un der the trestle of the -.Meadow Hrook breaker. The car In charge of Conductor Gardm-r ahd' Motor tfian Brennnn was in wurd bound about 8 o'clock and It broke down near the breaker. While waiting there for the wreck car to come, Conduc tor Henshall and Motorinan Raymond came down from the city line and there was a collision that smashed the front of their car. But for Raymond Jumped he would have been killed; as It was, he re ceived severe scratches and bruises from leaping down the embankment on the west side of the road. Henshall stayed on the car and was hurt on the head; ho will he out in a few days. After this happened another car from Muo.-ic, and loaded with passengers, came down the hill. It was In churge of Con ductor Messett and Motorman O'Donuell. The slippery rail made It Impossible to control the car and a collision was the result. They ran Into Henshall and Ray mond's car and broke It then on both ends; their own car came out without uny damage except a broken headlight and a twisted fender. The crash was a hard one, but none of the passengers was in jured. Some of them on the rear plat form jumped and rolled In the mud. Both are careful motormen and did their best to control the car, but the rails were so slippery that the wheels would not catch even when reversed. Traffic was resumed about 10.30 o'clock. The wreck car and one. of the broken cars blocked the road at Terppe's drug store, on Cedar avenue, by one of them getting off in the mud. Death of Mrs. Robert Thompson.

From the Providence Register. The conventions of the several parties have now been held, the nominations are all made, the smoke has cleared away from the preliminary contest, and the question presents Itself what Is our duty with reference to the election as to tho fitness and eligibility of the candidates. especlaly the candidates for mayor. There can be no difficulty of selection. Head and shoulders above all the others stands Colonel Ezra H. Klpple, whose long resi dence In Scranton, familiarity with Its governmental affuira. perfect Integrity and character make him an Ideal occu pant of the mayor's chair. We have no desire to speak disparagingly of Mr. Bai ley, but when It is considered that he has had no experience whatever In muni cipal government, all must freely admit that Mr. Ripple's past experience more than ever qualities him for the position. t cannot be possible that the people of Scranton would hesitate for a minute between Colonel Ripple and Mr. Bailey to return Colonel Rlpnle to the position he tilled with so great credit to himself and to the city a few years ago. The' oppor tunity of electing u man of Colonel ltln- pla's character, reputation and experience, does not como often enough. There can be no question as to his triumphant elec tion by the people for he Is a man of the people and for the people and the people are for him. The selection of Mr. Daniel Williams of the West Side Is also an exceptionally fortunate one. lie Is a man well known by the people generally as serving with distinction, credit and great usefulness as a member of the poor board for years. and Is sure to command the support of the people without regard to party ties. The re-election of Mr. Wldmayer is not only due to him by reason of his faithfulness in office during the term now coming to an end. but also because of his recognized fitness for the place, and the splendid reputation he has made as a fiscal officer of the city. Moreover, he Is a representa tive German, very popular among them all, and Justly so. The gentlemen named by the Republican convention for assessors are all men of experience and fitted for the positions they seek to occupy.- Altogether the party presents this spring an exceptionally strong ticket In all its parts, very much stronger than any of the others. Let us put our shoulders to the wheel and see If we cannot give ro this ticket In the North End the largest majority yet record ed in the history of the party. DIED. THOMPSON-In Scranton.

Rumors That Reading and Lackawanna Will Combine Their Tonnngc Many rumors were afloat yesterday In regard to the action of the presidents of the anthracite coal carrying compa nies, who met In New York on Thurs day," says the Philadelphia Press. "Among the most Important was that the Philadelphia and Reading and the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western had agreed to fomblne their tonnage, and Instead of asking for their quotas separately they would ask an allotment In bulk and the division would be made by the companies themselves. "This rumor created considerable sur prise, and while It yas not verified. H was not denied. It Is believed In the coal trade that some such scheme Is on foot. . "At the Heading office nothing defi nite could be learned in reference to the rumor that the company was going to combine with the TJelaware. Lacka wanna and Western on the percentage question as applied to the anthracite coal tonnage. It was stated, however, that nothing definite had been done and it was premature to talk on the subject at this time. When the presidents of the different coal companies were try ing to arrange a settlement of the diffi culties last year. It was proposed that the Reading and Pennsylvania combine their tonnage and the latter company give the former I per cent, of Its ton nage, but the scheme fell through."
