Is Hclng I'm Into I'llcct by tlin I).; I,. mid W. Company. The first steps In the pollcv of re-' trcnehment in the coal output of the Delawaie, Lackawanna anil Western company have been taken. Yesterday the employes of the Aichbald mines removed their tools, thu. mules have been brought out and are being dls ttlhuted elsewhere and everything now points to an Indefinite period of Inac tivity for this Immense colliery. The company by working all" its col lieries will exceed their proportion of the totnl output for the anthracite- re gion. This being the case, some mines must be stopped. Many of the collier ies owned by this company are work ing out coal upon which a royalty Is paid. Part of tho toyaltv goes on whether the coal Is taken out or not. Three colllerle will therefore still be operated. Collieries where the coal Is fully controlled by the company will be the ones to bo shut down and the plants which can lie Idle with the least cosl will be the first. The Arehbnld heads the list and oth ers which could some under this hend nre the Oxford, Cavuga, Storrs and Pyne. Tbee latter naturally come under mere conjecture is to probabil ity of their being shut down. rfHMV"- m 1 I It J LIVE NEWS OF WEST SCRANTON Members ol the K. K.
