Works Who Reiusc J to Accept a
Reduction ci Wiigc3 Filled. .
The bottom has fallen out of the
strike of the hnnmiersnv n at the Axle
works. In the first place only four
men left their occupation and refused
to work at a reduction of wages. Their
action threw others idle, who did not
have any grievance, but could not work
while the hammers were not going. At
no time did the strike, If it may be
called that name, affect the works to
the extent that any inconvenience was
caused.
The hannnersmen simply would not
work for less than they were gotting.
the company felt that they could not
afford to continue the old schedule of
wages, and the action of the former in
iinUting devolved the task upon the lat
ter (jf hiring men In their ol'.ccs. This
has been dr.e and everything la now
going alor.s the same ns mmal.

SOLEMN REQUIEM MASS.
Celebrated at St. Mary's Church. Pitts
ton fur Repose of Souls of the Vic
tims of Twin Shaft Disaster.
A r.olenin high mass of requiem was
celebrated In St. Mary's church, I'p
per Pittston, yesterday morning for
the repose of the souls of the men en
tombed in the Twin shaft. Just a
month ago yestrnday the dreadful ac
cident happened. It Is conceded beyond
the possibility of a doubt thut the m:n
are dead, and that therein little hope
of ever recovering the bodies.
Of the fifty-eight men, nearly all were
Catholics, and many belonged to St.
Mary's parish, of which Rev. J. J. Grove
Is pastor, and which was recently
formed out of St. John's parish, over
which I lev. John Finnen presides. The
church Is located on a hill not far from
the Twin shaft.
Heavy black folds enshrouded the
main altar and In the center aisle a
catafalque was placed with three lars?
candlesticks on either side. Every seat
in the church r.vns occupied nnd the
aisles nnd vestibules were filled. Many
were kneeling on the steps at the en
trance. The wives, mothers, fathers,
orphans, brothers, sisters and rela
tives of the entombed men had places
reserved In front.
PRIESTS PRESENT.
At 10.20 Right Reverend Plshop

The choir of St. Dominic's church.
Parsons, sang the Gregorian requiem
mass. Miss Margaret Kearney, of
Pittston, was soprano soloist, and Pro
fessor William Kelley was baritone so
loist. The music was inspiring. The
grief of the bereaved ones was intense
during the mass and their lamentations
filled the church.
Right Reverend Bishop O'Hara pro
nounced the final benediction. The ser
mon was preached by Right Reverend
Hishop Hoban. He was sent to Pitts
ton after ordination, but he would pre
fer to have Father Finnen, who is so
well qualified to speak, having known
the entombed men, having Joined many
of them In wedlock, and baptized their
children, preach the sermon, but he
was ill at home and could not come.
In the course of his touching: sermon
Hishop Hoban said:
THE RISHOP'S REMARKS.
"We are Catholics, and we mourn not
as those without hope. We believe that
Jesus Christ died and that ho arose
again and that we Inherit the fruits
of the Redemption. The death of thisc
men came suddenly, but In the mercy
of (tod they may have had time to
say one prayer for mercy; they may
have been able to say 'God forgive me,'
nnd all merciful God heard and for
gave. You will meet them no more
in this .world, but In the brighter and
better world, there you shall meet, hus
ba:vl and wife, child and father.
"You owe much to them. You owe to
them your prayers for their souls. You
owe it to them to t"neh Ihcir children
to lead lives of honor. Their fathers
were heroes. Men go Into battle fear
less of death knowing that victory wid
bring glory, but thrpe men went down
into the mine In the presence of death
for the sake of their rvlves and chil
dren. They are heroes because th?v
did their duty, and such men nre al
ways heroes. We ar- all In the bands
of an all merciful God and when sud
den dr-Ui eorren, el'her to the indi
vidual or to the mass. it behooves us
to lead lives that will make us pleasing
in the sight of God.
"This dl'D'ter brings Its lesson nnd It
brings its good. It has opened th.'
heart of charity, and people are irladly
frlving that your distress may be light
ened. It has aroused the sympathy of
the entire state, nnd has renched even
beyond Its confines. You wives and
widow prny for those who nre In ths
tomb, nnd not oi:ly pray for them,
but lead lives that will imnor them, and
whi n the final day of resurrection shall
come. Cod grant that you mny me"t
them and be forever happy In heaven
with them."

MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.
New York, July 28. Speculation at
the Stock Exchange was characterised
by weakness. London was a heavy
seller, throwing overboard something
like fifteen thousand shares of various
stocks and this with the sales for local
professional accounts kept the market
weak throughout. The cutting of corn
rates by the western roads hurt tne
Grangers, and the selling was more con
fident than of late. Hear operators
(were not flow to take advantage of
the unfavorable development J especial
ly ntar the close when a drive wus
made against Manhattan, Western
Union and the Grangers. The decline
In prices ranged from M to 3V4 per cent.
Consolidated Gas dropped to 141,
Sutrar to loi'i, Iturlington and Quiucy
IT to CCVi. Chicago Gas to C04, St. Paul
to 01, Rock Island to 04, Delaware
and Hudson to 120, Iowa Central to
22, Manhattan to New Jersey Cen-
itial to HO',2, and Leather Prefeired to
!4:i. In the Inactive shares Nickel
Plate first sold at 67i against 7S the
ilast previously reported transaction.
Speculation closed with losses of Vi to
,2r; per cent.. Sugar, Manhattan nnd the
;Oi-arg.is leading? Total sales were
20!l.(!) j shares.

For hi by JOHN H. PHELPS,

the same toughening process. It Is
therefore possible to have a complete
glass railway.
The glass rails are turned out In
sizes and shapes similar to those of the
ordinary steel rails. They are far
tougher and resist the action of the
elements more successfully than steel.
There Is reason to believe before long
that we shall be able to ride In glass
cars or glass rails laid on glaas sleep
ers. The manufacture of a glass dress
In Toledo Is probably one of the most
curious uscb to which glass has been
put. This garment is described as be
ing extraordinarily beautiful. Its
foundation is a silk warp, woven with
line strands of glass. In each strand
there are 250 almost Invisible threads.
Ono of the latest uses of glass Is in
filling teeth. This method Is said to be
particularly effective with the front
treth, where It Is less conspicuous than
sold, being Indistinguishable from the
tooth surface.
