THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-FRIDAY, AUGUST 11, 1899. .8 &. Healthy Children egS3t$rff?s?S 5 iliiP MViUViliWMkliViUMVtliMiMKkMtiititiiklikiitektaViMiliaiMi LIVE NEWS OF THE INDUSTRIAL WORLD LACKAWANNA COMPANY AFTER ', THE SLATE ROAD. President Truesdale and Superin tendent Russell Will Today Make ft Tour of Inspection of tho Bangor and Portland Railroad Strike la Now Practically nt a Standstill and Will Remain in That State Probably Until Spring Odds and Ends of Industrial News. President Truesdale. of the Lacka wanna company, who arrived In the city Wednesday, left at 1 o'clock yes terday on a special train, accompanied liy General Superintendent Hiissell, for Portland, this state. Today Ihev will take a trip over the Hanjror and Port land mllt-ond, which connect? with the Lackawanna road at Portlund. Tills road runs from the place noted to Nazareth, a distance of thirty miles, through the Immense slate region. There Is a well-grounded tumor abroad that the Lackawanna people are after the llaiiBor road. The tour of Messrs. Truesdale and HufscII at this time adda much Interest to the report. Lending local ofllclals of the Lacka wanna road, when seen with reference yesterday, stated they knew pothliiR to the matter by a Tribuni reporter of such a deal. They would not deny that such was probable, however. Mr. Kuisell will return to the city tonight. Mr. Truesdale will go to New York. The Strike at a Standstill. The stiike Is now at a complete stand still and from present Indications will remain In that condition until next spring, as both sides are equally de termined not to give In. The work which has been taken up both by the strikers and by those opposed to them Is progressing favorably. There are no present Indications of a boom In the building trade and It Is conceded by everyone thoroughly conversant with existing conditions that building Is practically dead until next year. On the other hand, the strikers say that before tho spring has arrived that they will have impressed upon the pub lic at large that they themselves ami the contractors who have granted their demands are fully competent and able to take work on any scale, largo or small. It is probable that the national body of the carpenters will take care of th men belonlgns: to that craft from now till spring. What support the other unions out on sympathy will receive, if the American Federation of Labor does not support them, Is a matter of con jecture. No reply has as yet been re ceived to the appeal sent out by the Central Labor union, though the strik eis are very hopeful that a favorable response will he received. Those In a position to know say that the dlllleultles existing between the master plumbers and the Journeymen will be satisfactorily adjusted before the winter sets in. as men of this trade nro much In demand during the win ter. The master plumbers seem to be Buffering no noticeable Inconvenience at present, but the Journeymen say that they are compelled In tho majority of cases to don overalls and do the work themselves. This and That. Master Car Ilullder Cunfleld. of the Lackawanna shops, will return to the city today from a business trip to Chi cago, Dayton, O., and Iiuffalo. .1. S.

The preparations for the annual re union of the Wyoming County Vet erans' association are complete. The encampment will bo made on the grounds which belong to the Itenshaw estate, along the Tunkhannock creek and within the Inirough limits, on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, August 23, 21 and 25.

BY GRAVITY TO LAKE. Possibility of an Inclined Railway to Crystal Lake Is No Longer a Remote One. Ever since the building of the gravity system of railroad between Carbondale and Crystal lake was broached In the Leader some weeks ago. tho matter has been under consideration by a number of well-known gentlemen of this city and the possibility of such a line Is not at all remote. The gentlemen have been quletlv looking over the ground during the j ast week and making the preliminary estimates that are neces sary to an Intelligent starting of th enterprise. No surveys, of course, have been made or routes decided upon, but a rough estimate of the number of planes and equipment required has been had and this is thought to bo sufficient to lay before the New York capitalists who will be asked to furnish the funds to equln the road. The local gentle men Interested express no fears about being able to secure right of way at a reasonable figure in view of tho Im mense benefit such a road would be to this section. The disbandment of the Delaware and Hudson Gravity road throws on to the market a large quantity of material designed especially for such use and it could probably be obtained at reason able figures. The road could be oper ated very cheaply and would have no little freight and coal business for Dundnff and that entire section, nut It is the summer excursion traffic to the lake that is being most counted upon. With such facilities for reach ing this popular resort as a gravity road would afford, there would be thou sands from this valley and Northeast ern Pennsylvania going to Crystal lake dally. Carbondale Leader. FOUNDRY WAS FLOODED. Bursting of Sewer Pipe Did Much Damage to D., L. & W. Foundry. The buiHting of the sewer pipe on South AVashlnKton avenue, nt the Lucltuwnnna ear pimps caused consid erable damage to the company's foun dry yesterday mornlnjr. The pipe is considered too small owlntr to the large amount deposited from the car shops. The break occurred In front of Mas ter Car Hullder Canfleld's olllce, and In a short time the foundry was Hooded fully four feet deep. Work was nhin doned, and the bottoms were pulled trom the cupolas, at a great cost to the company. A larse fore o of men were put at work to repan the- sewer pipe, and It was learned that at the top of the hill, it was choked. That wus the cause of the break. The repair work was solnp; splendidly when the heavy down pour of rain came nnd necessitated the ubandonliiK of work on it, wh.'-h was resinned last night. The repairs will be completed today, and the foun- dty will start tomorrow. THE PAVEMENT DAMAGED. Bricks in Rear of City Hall Wiil Have to Be Jlelaid. Ootftraetor Huddy Is having his own trouble with tho brick pavement he is laying In tho icar ot the city hall.

A enroll lake formed In the part of the street where brick had not been laid and gradually the water worked Its way under the bricks, forcing them upwTi.-dH and damaslng the foundation on which they were laid. They will have to be taken up and relald. HELD UNDER ?400 BAIL. Mrs. Annie Brennan Charged with Assault and Battery.
