NEW ROAD TO HARVEY'S LAKE.
Rapid ProgrrsM That I tiring .Wiidc
in Its ConKlrurtion.
The Brailinp of the Wilkrs-Barre and
Northern railroad between Luzerne
borough and Dullas has been pushed
rapidly, and now all that remains Is the
cut at Trucksvllle and a piece of half
a mile through Joseph Shaver's woods,
with a little finishing along- the line
here and there. Soon as the Luzerne
Dallas section of the pradliiR Is com
pleted rails will be laid to Pallas while,
the pradlnff bitween Dnlla.s and the
lake Is lit'lns; done. It Is the Intention
to have the railroad in operation as far
as Dallas at least by fair time, and If
the nianaKement succeeds In this, It will
be a great assistance to the fair asso
ciation. It would be of Immense advan
tage to the foir if a track were laid to
the grounds and trains were run
through, but this will hardly be done
this year, though It will probably come
In time.
It Is understood that the Wllkes
Barre and Northern will locate a big
picnic ground at Dallas, and will boom
this town for all there Is In It. The in
junction case brought against the com
pany by the Albert Lewis Lumber and
Manufacturing company was heard be
fore Judge Hennett on Wednesday. The
question Involved was the right of the
railroad company to uso the little lot
on Main Btreet In Dallas from which
the Lehigh Valley tore up the Wllkes
Barre and Northern tracks. The lum
ber company had no case and the pro
ceedings were promptly dismissed.
This practically settles all the Lehigh
Valley opposition to the new road.

INQUEST IS BEGUN.
Concluded from Page 1.
talking- with the officials and rescuers
concerning the conditions below but
withal he failed to conceive anything
like the real state of affairs that exist.
The danger of death to the men .work
ing In the face of the fall Is momentary
and those who are farther removed
from the active district are taking al
moFt equal grim and desperate chances.
A short distance from the foot of the
Bhaft Foreman Evans pointed out a
pillar which had been crushed only the
night before by a squeeze. It was bo
thoroughly shattered that It could be
torn away by the hand If one dnred
to disturb it. All along the SOO feet
of the gangway to the head of the slope
this same condition exists. The roof is
cracked and studded with hanging.
Jagged rocks, and the sides are nothing
more or less than shattered bulging
walls of coal.
Passage through this gangway toey
say is comparatively safe. The timb
ered tunnel they claim will resist any
squeeze or settlings that are likely to
occur, and while an occasional pillar
or section of roof with Its propping
may give way to the terrific stress upon
them there Is no great fear of the re
treat being wholly blocked, and the
miners In the face of the fall being
made to share the fate of those they
are risking their lives for.' In the slope
these conditions are Intensified and the
men who have to work In the face of
the fall without the protection of the
timbering simply carry their lives In
their hands.
They are tunnellnc through a solidly
wedged mass of various sized broken
rock, which does not contain a crevice
anywhere large enough to admit a good
sized cat. It is almost as compact as a
solid wall. As the reporter had nil
along supposed, the men do not merely
have to dear out a rock-choked gang
way. They hnve to burrow through
this debris by dislodging enough of the
rocks to give them a passage way and
thi'n use the props to hold Hip remain
ing rocks of the roof and sides In place.
Thut they made only six or eight feet
a shift was a cause of much surprise to
the reporter before he saw what they
have to contend against. That they
succeed in making any headway at all
is now a greater cause of surprise.
The only way that the rescuers are
enabled to follow the route of the slope
tm-ough -the- fall is by the car tracks.
Manways and headings that extended
on one side or the other from the slope
are totally obliterated. There Is no
way of finding them as there are no
rails running through them. From the
point whrre the men are now working
It would seem that the whole of the fifth
and sixth veins, gangways, chambers,
pillars, and everything else had been
removed by some mystic power and the
void filled in with a broken mass of in
discriminately mixed rock and coal
packed as tightly as Is possible.
Through this the rescuers are burrow
ing at the rate of 12 to 13 inches an hour,
which Is as fast as It Is possible for
human npency to push the wyk. Sev
en hundred feet beyond Is fhe point
where they must branch out in differ
ent directions to look for the bodies.
Some of the bodies may be at this point
others may be a thousand feet away.
The amount of timbering that has
gone into the mine since the tunneling
began can not be told as no tab was
kept on it when It was being lowered.
It is also hard to give any adequate
idea of its vnstness. Every pillar along
the gangway Is surrounded by a close
ly planted row of props. "Cog pillars"
made by piling props crosswise and
making a solid square, say 12x12, reach
ing from the floor to the roof, are found
In every opening off the main gangway,
and at almost every other point where
the width of the gangway will permit
it. The roof over the passageway Is
braced with collars and lighter timber
and along thp sides wherever there is
room for a pillar to stand there one Is
found.
A TUNNEL, OF WOOD.
The gangway is almost, hidden from
view by the timber, so much so In fact
that one would imagine himself pass
ing through a wooden tunnel instead of
the gangway In a mine.
As long as these timbers con resist
the pressure of the 500 foot thickness
of earth above them, the rescuers have
nothing to fear but the gas. The ques
tion Is will they hold out? A negative
answer will mean more mourning In
bereaved Pittston.

Closed Scranton's Fourth of July Demon
stratlonTen Thousand Persons
Saw ThemFine Music.
Scranton's Fourth of July celebration
terminated last nljrht with the fire
works display. The original intention
was to huve the fireworks as the trrand
finale of Saturday's demonstration, but
the weather vetoed the proposition, and
the exploding of the rock'.ts and fir
ing of the crackers were poB'P"ned.
Early last evenln.? It looked very
much as If the weather was about to
Interpose another veto, but fortu:.ately
the rain that threatened did not come,
and ten thousand persons taw one of
the finest displays of fireworks in the
history of the city.
As early as 7.30 the crowd bcarun to
assemble on Linden street, between
Washington and Adams avenues,
where the fireworks were to be dis
played. Tho police officers at first tried
to keep the crowd off the court house
lawn, but Boon discovered that such a
thing was utterly impossible and
abandoned the idea. It was well they
did for at 9 o'clock the lawn was packed
with people from Linden street to the
court house. Ropes kept the crowd
from filling up Linden street close to
the place where the display took place,
and the Crystals and Chemical com
panies of the fire department were on
hand to extinguish any blase that the
spurting, sputtering wheels or shoot
ing rockets might give birth to. The
services of the firemen were not reed
ed, however.
At 8 o'clock Bauer and his band
opened up the evening's programme
by playing a pot pourrl of national
airs arranged by Thomas Coates. Then
followed at intervals "El Caplton," by
Sousa, from the opera of the same
name, "King Cotton." and all of tho
popular marches of the day.
The first rocket was fired at 8.30 and
for the succeeding hour the atmosphere
was torn by lines of fire that assumed
all manner of fantastic shapes and
colors after rushing for a distance
heavenward. There were a number of
set pieces but the most loudly cheered
one was "George Washington." At
9.30 tho "Good Night" was lighted, tho
band struck up "Home, Sweet Home"
and the crowd rapidly melted away.
The musical programme of the even
ing as rendered by the band was varied
by a selection sung by the male party
that will make a concert tour of the
West during the fall under the leader
ship of Haydn Evans.
TUGS FOR CUBA.
They Are Chased Away by a Spanish
.Mim-of-War.
Key West, Fla., July . Captain Low,
of the schooner Charles D. Hall, arrived
at this port yesterday noon nnd reports
that nt about 10 o'clock he sighted a
steam off Sombre Light going in a
southeast direction, which ho took for the
Ueorge W. Cliilils, but the tug kept well
away from him and it whs Impossible to
decipher her name. About 2o'clock ho
also sighted tho samo steamer coming
back under full head of steam, and short
ly afterwards a large three-masted
steamer hove In sleht, coming from tho
southward, which bad evidently fright
ened the tug.
When about twenty miles southeast of
this port the tug hauled to and put. back
across the gulf. This morning about 9.30
a Btnall tug, supposed to be the. Three
Friends, was sighted from the custom
house moving up the gulf under full
steam and being chased by a war vessel.
Tho tug was close to the reef and some
little distance off. Some think It was the
United States ship Raleigh, while others
claim It to be a Spanish war vessel. At
this moment the man-of-war has hauled
off and the Three Friends has come inside
tho reef.
