happen to know that J. P. Morgan has
not, up to this time, offered the Le

or any one else. Also that Mr, Wllbut

to do so, It IS probable, however, that
Mr. Wilbur will retire shortly. Just
when cannot now bo stated. It will not
be, however, until tho matters In hand,
Including the financial deal with tho
Drexel-Morgan syndicate shall have
been fully adjusted, Mr. Wilbur can
then retire with credit to himself, for

Tho now breaker of the Dusky Dia
mond Conl company at Beaver Jlrook
was dedicated Thursday. The building
Is C2 feet in height and 120 feet In
length. The nproach to the breaker Is
on a slope 200 feet long and 40 feet
high. It is fitted throughout with tho
most modern machinery, nmong this
being a friction engine, so constructed
that tho breaker machinery can be op
erated and the cars hoisted nt one and
the same time, thereby Insuring an
abundance of coal of all sizes contin
ually. Tho veins that are being worked
and which underly this area are the
Wharton, Buck Mountain and Skid
more. They range in thickness from
8 to 19 feet, and contain a sufficient
quantity of coal to keep tho operators
busy for the next ten years to come.

Another cave-In occurred In the old
workings of tho Dodson mine nt Plym
outh Thursday afternoon, nffcctlng tho
surface on Halleck's Hill, near the resi

sized porker which happened to be
leisurely strolling nlong went down
with It and had n narrow escape from
being burled alive. The hole Is about
twenty feet deep and about eight feet
In diameter.
An order for steel rails for an Indian

a large order, yet It Is significant as
marking the Introduction of American

Tho running race, three-quarters of
a mile, brought Ked Hose, Young Trou
bador, Loan Oak nnd ltambert to tho
post. They started at the quarter post
and finished at tho wire. Ited Rose and
Troubador were the most, fancied.
They got off well In tho first heat and
when going past thr stand lied Hose
and Troubador were together, Loan

Red Hose and Troubador were whip
ping Into the stretch, the former next
the rail. They camo nose nnd nose for
tho wire with both Jockeys whipping.
Troubador br.d tho advantage of a
head and might have won tho heat but
for his Jockey's attempt to mako a
grandstand finish, Red Hose winning
by a half head.
In the second heat, won by Young
Troubador, that horse and Loan Oak
got the best of the start with ltambert
and Red Rose1 off la3t In the order
named. Troubador's lead was a long
one and be had a gap ot IB lengths
between himself and Loan Oak on the

LOAN OAK'S ACCIDENT.
At the head of the homestretch Loan

During tho waits Rowdy Joe (2.08),
one of the fastest but most unreliable
performers that ever appeared on the
track, paced against Raven's 2.15 track,
match, pacing record. He wus driven
by H. F. Kldwell and wns paced by
a running mate, Little Frltnd. He
made two attempts, acted badly In
each and failed.
It was the fifth score on tho first
trial before Kldwell nodded for the
word when the horse was on a gait
far below his usual pace. The first
quarter was In 40, the next In 33, the
half In 1.17, the third quarter- 36V: and
1.53, the last qunrter in 33 and the
mile in the slow time of 2.27',2.
Later In the second trial he got off
well after two bad failures and reached
the quarter post In C3'-.. but broke on
the upper turn. Kldwell nodded for a
start when he reached the wire, but
Rowdy broke again on the first turn
and abandoned the attempt.
NEW TRACK BICYCLE RECORD.
Bicycle record breaking was more
successfully attempted. Keller nnd
Gregory, of the Green, Ridge Wheel
men, rode a Spalding tandem unpaced
and broke the truck half-mile record
of 1.00 ilnt. The latter was made at
tho Green Ridge meet last August by
John II. Corser, of Allentown, on a
specially prepared track paced by the
Barnes tandem.
The Scranton pair yesterday warmed
for a mile and then nodded. Three
watches In tho Judges' stand timed
them 53?i seconds, or, iU seconds be
low the record. They made tho first
furlong in 13' seconds, and the quarter
In 27.
