LIVE NEWS OF THE
INDUSTRIAL WORLD
THIS WILL BE A MEMORABLE
DAY IN D., L. & W. CIRCLES.
Resignations of General Manager W.
F. Hallstead, Mine Superintendent
Hughes and A. H. Storrs Go Into
Effect and Men Named as Heads
of New Departments Will Enter
Upon Their Duties Second Install
ment of Money to Assist Striking
Carpenters Has Arrived.
This will be a memorable July 1 in
the history of tho Delaware, Lacka
wanna and Western company. Resig
nations of some of the oldest officials
of the company go into effect; ap
pointees to oirices recently created as
sume their duties, and no small feature
of the day Is a meeting of heads of
departments of the entire road this
afternoon at tho office of President
Truesdale In New York city.
William F. Hallstead, general man
ager of the road, will step out of offlce
today to retire to private life. Mr.
Hallstead will be at his office today,
however, to clear up matters yet un
attended to. Yesterday was an ex
tremely busy day for Mr. Hallstead.
He was denied to all callers. Tho re
tirement of Mr. Hallstead has set in
terested one? conjecturing as to what
President Truesdale will do con
cerning tho ofTIce of general man
ager. The president has stated that
for a time at least ho will act in the
capacity of general manager. Later he
may appoint a general superintendent
of the road, who will bo directly under
him. Theie are many prominent men
in railroad circles who believe that
Superintendent FitzGlbbon, of thi
motor power and machinery depart
ments, will in tho near future assume
tho duties Mr. Hallstead performed.
There Is a well giounded feeling that
at the meeting today In Mr. Truesdale's
office this matter will be ono of the
leading subjects of discussion. At this
mcpting Mr. FitzGlbbon, Master Car
Builder Canfleld and J. M. iDaly, buper
Intendent of transportation, will bo
present.
Pupi-ilntendent Loomls, of the de
partment of mining, stated to a Tri
bune reporter yesterday that ho was
not going to attend tho meeting. From
this It can be surmised that the meet
ing will deal directly with the railroad
part of tho company's business.
The resignation of Benjamin Hughes
as general inside superintendent of
mines, and A. II, Storrs, second assist
ant superintendent of the co.vl depart
ment, are two other resignations which
take effect today. These offices will be
abolished, nnd the four new district
superintendents of mines. Major Mont
rose Barnard, Colonel Reese Phillips,
E. J. Evans and Thomas J. Williams,
will perform the duties that hereto
fore fell to Messrs. Hughes and Storrs.
Major Barnaul, who was expected yes
terday, will not reach the city until the
middle of next week. Tho other three
superintendents will assume their
offices today.
Commencing today. Superintendent
FitzGlbbon, of the motor power and
machinery department, In addition to
his many duties, will have entire charge
of the distribution ot fuel, an order to
tint effect having been tent out by
Pi evident Truesdale, Thursday.
J. O'Connor, of the Long Island Rail
road company, enters today upon his
duties of general storekeeper of the
company, with headquarters in this
city, adjoining tho offices of Mr. Fitz
Glbbon. Mr. O'Connor and General
Auditor Tost, of tho company, reached
the city ,last evening. They return to
New York again this morning to par
ticipate In the conference in Mr. Trues
dale's office today.
D. B. Caldwell Is another new official
of another new department wrj enters
upon his duties today. He Is to be gen
eral traffic manager, and will have
charge of the passenger and freight
business of the company.
Second Installment of Money.
The second installment of money for
tha carpenters arrived In the city yes
terday and the distribution will com
mence &ome time today as soon as the
check can be cashed. This fact was
made known at headquarters yester
day. There were no new developments
yesterday other than that above noted
and there will probably not be any
thing very new until either side makes
some step towards a settlement.
The men employed by Frank Carluccl
In New York, who were called oft on
Thursday, quit work yesterday. It Is
understood that the Building Trades
Council of this city has requested tho
Building Trades Council of New York
city to refrain from doing any work
upon nny job using stone from Car
luocl's yard in this city.
Monthly Conferences.
President Truesdale, of the Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western com
pany, will have monthly conferences
with tho heads of all departments of
his company. Tho first meeting will be
held today. Superintendent FitzGlb
bon, of the motor power and machinery
departments, speaking to a Tribune
man yesterday, said with reference to
this action of Mr. Truesdale
"Every well managed railroad com
pany has tho heads of all departments
meet with Its president monthly, and
our meeting In President Truesdale's
office tomorrow will be the Initial ses
sion. Whatever occurs at this meeting
of public Interest will be given out by
Mr. Truesdale."
Objections Withdrawn.
James Archbald, chief engineer of
the Lackawanna, and William B. Hoyt,
chief engineer of the Buffalo and Pitts
burg, have inspected the proposed
route of the Stony Point road, at Buf
falo, which is to connect tho proposed
big steel works with the Terminal
railroad Blalsdell.
Afterwards the engineers announced
that their roads would withdraw any
objections to a certificate being Issued
by tho state railroad commissioners
to tho Stony Point line. It Is expected
that the commissioners will grant the
certificate of necessity at onco. Wall
Street Journal.
This nnd That.

SAVED BY MRS. PINKIIAM.
tutrix to usi. rinxHAu no. 72,896
"You havo saved my life, snatched
me from the brink of tho gravo almost,
and I wish to thank you, About eigh
teen months ago I was a total wreck,
physically. I had been troubled with
loucorrhrea for some time, but had given
hardly any attention to tho trouble.
" At last inflammation of the womb
and ovaries resulted and then I suf
fered agonies, liBd to give up my pro
fession (musician and piano player),
was confined to my bed and lifo becamo
a terriblo cro&s. My husband sum
moned the best physicians, but their
benefit was but temporary at best. I
believe I should havo contracted tho
morphine habit under thoir care, if my
common sense had not intervened.
" One day my husband noticed the ad
vertisement of your remedies and im
mediately bought mo a full trial. Soon
tho pain In my ovaries was gono. I am
now well, strqng and robust, walk,
ride a wheel, and feel like a girl in her
teens. I would not bo without Lydla
12. 1'inkham's Vegetable Compound; it
is like water of life to me. I am very
gratefully and sincerely your well
wisher, and 1 heartily recommend your
remedies. I hopo some poor creaturo
may bo helped to health by reading my
story." Mi:s. Cor.. E. P. Richardson,
KHlNEr.AN-DER, WlS.
assumes his position with the Scranton
Coal company. A successor to William
Pcnn Morgan, who recently resigned
the outside foromanshlp of Capouse
colliery, has not yet been nppolnted. It
was stated yesterday that General
Manager Storrs will name the new
man.
J. M. Daly, superintendent of trans
portation of the Delaware, Lackawanna
and western company, dismissed six
tii- ' hi the car accountant's office
ye' . iy. The work hereafter will bo
done by his remaining force. Tho sal
aries paid the dismissed men will bo
added to tho pay of the present force.
Master Car Builder Canfleld, ot the
Delaware, Lackawanna nnd Western
company, and his force of clerks took
possession vesteul.iy of the new office
building. The building, which was for
merly occupied by late Superintendent
McKenna, has been remodeled and an
other story added to It. It Is modern
in appointments, and specially adapted
for tho purpose Intended. In honor of
the "housowarmlng," Mr. Canfleld
passed around tho cigars yesterday.
CASE OF SHEW AND EGAN
Has Been Held Under Advisement
by tho Board of Pardons and Un
til September What Defend
ant's Attorney Claim.
It now develops that the dispatch
sent out from Harrlsburg to the effect
that Shew and Egan, the Susquehanna
murderers were to bo executed on July
18, Is erroneous. To a telegraphic query
from Tho Tribune ns to the accuracy
of the leport, Lieutenant Governor J.
P. S. Gobln, yesterday renllcd that the
report was Incorrect, the board of par
dons at Its last session having con
tinued the case until September.
Up in Susquehanna county where the
case is so anxiously nnd minutely dis
cussed there is a sort of fixed feeling
that the hanging will never take plate.
This Is based on the hesitancy of the
board of pardons In giving Its sanction
to the verdict and on certain broad in
timations thrown out by the members
of the board during the hearing.
Tho claim of the defendants' attor
ney, T. J. Davis, that the men were
not given a fair trial appears to havo
strongly Impressed tho board. Mr.
Davis alleges, It will be remembered,
that a confession was extracted from
Phew by threats and cajoled out 'f
Egan by false promises.
In Egan's case, tho allegation of
unfair treatment is corroborated, so it
Is claimed, by certain olrcumstatire-j
that can not help but give the claim
every semblance of credibility. The
strangest of these Is. the refusal or the
accused to go on the stand even against
the advice of his counsel. Ills reason
for this refusal, so ho told his countel,
was that It was part of his agreement
with District Attorney Atney, who In
consideration of his making a ennfes
sion and staying off the witness stand
was to do all he could to save him from
the gallows.
When tho evidence closed and the
district attorney came to make his
closing address to the jury he not only
did not treat Egan as a stati's witness,
as is he Is said to have agreed, but
characterized his refusal to go on the
stand as an evidence of his unques
tioned guilt. In arguinj; before the
board of pardons Mi1. Davis went no far
as to claim that his ollenrs had ben
convicted on Incompetent evidence and
that tht-rc sentence should not only be
commuted but that tho voruVt should
be entirely overthrown.
Reliable reports from Montrose tend
to show that public sentiment there Is
not altogether opposed to a commuta
tion of the sentence.

CAUSE OF KOONS DEATH.
I'. Was Due to a Perforation of the
Intestines.
Coroner Roberts made a post-mortem
examination in tho case of Henry
Chilstlan Kraus, who died suddenly nt
his homo In Dunmore. . It was Inti
mated that tho dead man's son, Georgo
Kraus, kicked tho deceased last Tues
day night, but from Dr. Roberts' In
vestigation there is no external evi
dence of that fact and the coroner
does not believe that any such occur
rence flguted in tho man's death.
Tho direct cause of Kraus' deatli
was septic peritonitis, duo to a per
foration of the intestines, which wero
ulcerated. A double rupture from
which the man had been suffering for
several years was the remote cause.
Further investigation will bo made
by tho coroner regarding tho case. A
death certificate was granted and the
remains will be burled tomorrow.
