IN Superintendent Do Puy of the Morris & Essex Division of the- Lacka wanna Road Talks Ahout the Pol icy of the Company His Remarks Are Endorsed by Fresldent Trues drtle White Oak Mine nt'Archbald About to Resume Operations Con ference Will Be Resumed Today. "There li one thing Hint wo would llko the public to understand, and that Is this: There Is absolutely no founda tion lor the Idle talk and rumors which are prevalent that the new liiunnKC ment contemplates another shake-up nrnnn? the employes" of the road.' pays Superintendent l)e I'uy of the Mori I & Essex division of the Lackawanna road. ;l don't know where such rumors originated, but I win authoritatively say that theie Is absolutely no founda tion for such reports. "The new management did not take charge of the Lackawanna road for the purpose of making a clean sweep of all It employes, or to lemove men because they have grown old and gray In the seivlce of the company, or be-cau-e we thought that they had out lltd their uspfulnr-m by mison of hiving been coniiecttil with the com pany for so many years. 1 know that such an erroneous Impression prevails In many qumters, owing perhaps to the many changes which have been made since the new management a sumed control, but It Is a decidedly futse Impression. "The new management does not ex pect anything further from thp em ployes than that they shall attenl strictly to the work arslgnd to them, nnd then they can feel reasonably rafe nnd seeuie in retaining their Jobs. "The sooner the employees under stand that the better it will be for themselves nnd for all concerned. If they would do that and stop conjec turing whether or not the 'decapitation nve will he wielded nga'n,' as stated by one of the nouspapets, these employees will have no reason to fear about losing their Jobs. NEED HAVE NO FKAR. 'Therefore. I say the best thing that these men can do Is to get right down to woik and attend to business, anil they need fear nothing. The new man agement Mill show them that we are their friends and not enemies, that we did not take charge of the road for the puipo.se of dispensing with their ser vices and placing Western men in tlnlr places, as has also been stated in the newspapers. It may be true that many rallioad men wir gained their expc-iienee in the West have been placed at the head of some of the de pattments. The new management per haps had a reason fur that, but it does not Justify the asset tlon that the new management proposes to make a clean tuvcep and appoint none but Western men along this load "It nmat be lem inhered that there nie seveial tluuwiud men ehiploed on the Lackawanna mad and It would be n nice condition of aff.ilis If he should tMI nil their places with Wefvern men 1'udei such elrrMimstanee the em 1 lnyees would have soml grounds for complaint, but at present we have not plv-n thorn any cause to compliln nb'iut tlv'lr treatment. 'Wo have .rived io tirat our em ployes full Iv. jullv and In a nvmner that would not ijIvc- tln-m the slightest ground for complaint. We will leeelw my irrlciniin' tint th rnav present and If !t ' pu's'bl or pra-Hcable we nlll strive tu remedv their complaints "I hnv" sce-i It stated In the new Ihppih that the new innuns' niont was held reoiit'iislble for ti.uliie a "lieular asking th" emplovei.s to end ti record of their frorvice with the company It his h.eu J-tated that this- wn done to enable the new management to dis pense wlih the services of old em ployees FA It FROM THE TIU'TH. N'uthliig In the woild was fuither from thu titilli," continued the supeiiu iiiident. somewhat emphatically. "Such cr.irgo nre utti ily without foundation. TU truth of the matter Is- that such a circular wns seni out by I'urniei Siip erlnietidetit Andrew J Ueasouer beloie he went ut of ottlce. and we hale Uu'ii rtculvlng repller over since. The new maunfjement did not .eok or ask for these lepllcs. "I understand that It was dene by Mr. llenyuiier for the purpese of get ting a cumpli to refold ot all ihe em ployees, so that promotions could ba made In line villi thelt seniority. We know nothing further about theso clt- rul.irs or why tliu. were Issued. 'In regard in tlv employees along the load, such as station masters, gate inon, flagmen, fte., we do not propose to mako any further changes except for cause, or where wo llnd that the services of such men are not needed. "It cannot bo expected that a rail road will keep n man when his ser vices nre not needed, simply because it is a railroad. We conduct our business like any othor corporation. Whin we don't need men we arc compelled to dis charge them." President Truesdnl? endorses all that Is said by Superintendent V Puy in the above. He says It Is the Inten tion of the new management not to make any morechangos unless It Is absolutely neper.XUrssldent Trues dale also conflims the story published last week In this column that the Lack awanna company would construct a third track on the Morris nnd Essex division between Hoboken and Sum mit.

AN oik will Iv resumed at the White Oak mines this morning. This will be about ten doys earlier than It was ex pected the mines would be In opera tion, becnuse It had been announced heretofore that work would not begin before September 1. All the mines of the company will bo In operatlun on Monday except the slope nnd the KlomPJke mines. The slope will, however, ston be working as it was befro the broaJior was burned. A sheave wheel for hoisting the toal from the mine must yet bo fixed In position and when It is work will be started. The mules hnve been taken from C'nrbondale to the company barn here. They were bi ought here on Tuesday. It Is announced positively that the pockets and the building for the pre paration of small sizes of coal, now be Inc built on the site of burned White Onk breaker are to be used riply tem porarily. A new breaker will be built near the Sharpless land In the lower end of the borough. Work may not be begun until next spring. When the breaker Is completed It will probably be one of the finest In the valley. The company has so much coal here that it can nfford to put up a first-clrss breaker and It Is likely to do so. Archi bald Citizen. There was another conference Sat urday between the engineers of the Lackawanna road and Superintendent ItU'-sell at which substantial progress was made In the consideration of the matters at Issue. The conference will be resumed this motnlng. Want Foreman Removed. The employee of the Babylon colliery have Kone on strike ngaln and say that they will posltvely not return un til their latest demand Is acceded o. This is, that the company remove Mine Foreman McCarthy, who, they claim, has broken the agreement since they returned to work on Tuesday Inst. The contention Is made that McCarthy objected to the removal of extra top ping from a car by one of the men ap pointed to see that none of the cars contained more than six inches of top coal. It is also alleged that McCarthy struck the men. The men now demand that McCarthy be removed and that a foreman be se lected fiom one of their number. Rate War Probable. A dispatch from Chlcngo announces that the Erie railroad has announced a rate of $18 tr. for the round trip be tween Chicago and New York. There Is at pres-ent no round trip between the two cities, the standaid one way rate being $20. At the same time corres ponding rates will be made from all Intel mediate points to New York. A rate of JL".3"i for the round trip be tween Cincinnati and New York will be made, the one way rate belntr $1S. Hetween Cleveland ond New Vork a lound tilp rate of $14 will be made, ugalnst a one wnv late of $13. The Rile has placed these rates In effect for th first four days of Sep temberji tlve return coupons being good at any time during that month These rates are made to meet the r.ites fixed between Chicago and Philadelphia for the annual encampment of the O. A. K. It is the general opinion that the action of the Erie will stir up the live liest kind of a fight on rates between Chicago and New York. GREEN RIDGE. Mrs. V. II. Osenlmch. of Capoure avenue.

DUNMORE DOINGS A Fire Which Had Every Appear ance of Being of Incendiary Or igin, Quickly Extinguished. Fliebugs made an unsuccessful at tempt to destroy a barn on Tripp ave nue early yesterday morning, but wetu foiled In their woik by the quick ar rival of the fire department, who did effective work and had the blaze under control in ten minutes and quenched In twenty minutes. The barn is situ ated In the rear of the lot of Mr. and Mrs. JoncH Pinnell, of West Drinker street, and formerly was part of the Harton livery stables, and lately occu pied by Anthony McDonough. A short time ago, however, the most of the stables were torn down, this part being left standing. The fire was discovered by Mrs. Woodward, of Tripp avenue, whose yard adjoins the one the burn Is shu nted on. She was aroused from her slumbers about 4.1e o'clock by a crack ling noise and was listening for the cause when clouds of smoke filled the air and madp breathing difficult. An alarm was quickly sounded from Hox 21, nt the corner of Hlakely and Drinker streets, and before the gong had re peated the alarm the third time. Per manent man George Seese. of the Nep tune Chemical company, had his team nt the scene of the fire, followed a few seconds later by Permanent man John Van Horn, ot the Independents. Th chemical was brought Into use and given a good test as to Its usefulness. Twenty-five gallons of chemical com pound was used to place the fire under control. No water was used, as It wns seen that It was not icqulrcd. There Is nn clue to the guilty party. Shavings and bags were the articles used In starting the blaze In a corner of the barn, near several other sheds In the yard. SHOUT NKWS ITKMS.
