Besides the line olllcers there weie present Colonel Dougherty and Lieutenant Frantz, of Wllkcs-Barre; Colonel Watres and Lieutenant Colonel F. W. Stlllwell and Major W. S. Millar. After the dinner Colonel Dougherty formally announced the result of til's election and called upon tho officers chosen for their acceptance or refusal of the honois tendered them. Colonel Watres, In accepting the posi tion of colonel, expressed his high ap preciation of the honor nnd said he would do his utmost to keep the re organized Thirteenth regiment In the prominent place In the National Guard It has held for years. He reviewed the past history of the regiment and spoke of tho distinguished men who have commanded It. He then referred to the armory and said the Thirteenth ought to and will have a new armory. Pub lic sentiment, he said, Is strongly In favor of n new aimory. "No organization," continued tho speaker, "can be efficient unless prop el ly housed. It Is absolutely necessary to have a properly equipped armory to have an efficient regiment. With a suitable armory In this cltv we can have a regiment second to none In the state. The Thirteenth has been a leader In the past and we purpose to keep It In the front rank." Speeches of acceptance wero also made by Lieutenant Colonel Stlllwell nnd Major Robllng. Major Field, of Kaston, was not present. Lieutenant Colonel Stlllwell was a major of tho Thirteenth When It went Into the vol unteer army and was promoted to lieu tenant colonel upon tho retirement of Lleutennnt Colonel Mattes. Major Robllng has been for a number of years captain of Company C. His promotion puts First Lieutenant Bd ward Burkhouso In lino for tho office of captain.

Quartermaster and ordnance stores will shortly bo Issued by the state to the regiment. As soon as the ordnance Is received rifle prnctlce will be taken up. In earnest. It Is expected that every "enlisted man in the regi ment will be on the range before tho season closes. The fall Inspection will take place nt an early date nnd the leglmont expects to be In shape to pass a satisfactory Inspection. From tho sentiments expressed nt the dinner yesterday It was evident that tho friendly feeling heretofore existing between the Thirteenth and the Ninth regiments Is to continue. Colonel Watres, on behalf of the ofllcers of tho Thirteenth, thanked Colonel Dougherty for his courtesy In conducting the elec tion. EXPENSES OF PRIMARIES Items That Hnve to Bo Taken Into Consideration in Making n Gen eral Estimate. Secretary J. B. Watklns, of the Re publlcnn county committee, Is hard nt work arranging the details In connec tion with the primal les under the Crawford county rules, which will he held on Saturday, September 23. Tho expenses connected with tho pri maries will be considerable. There are 156 election districts In the county and each district will have a board con sisting of three men, a return Judge nnd two Inspectors. The return Judge will have to conduct tho primary In his district nnd make return to the con vention to be held In this city on Tues day, September 20. While no compen sation has as yet been fixed for these officials, It Is felt that the lowest pos sible amount that n board can bo se cured for Is $0. Those who have mndo that estimate allow tho Inspectors $1 each and the return Judge $4. Inas much as the latter must practically give up two days to tho work and pay his expenses on the day of the conven tion. It Is plain that the estimate Is not very generous, especially for the returnjudgeswhocomo from the remote parts of the county, w ho will have to pay In the neighborhood of $1 for car fare and buy their dinner and possibly their supper In this city. At $0 a board that Item of expense for tho 1D6 dis tricts would be J93G, The rules provide that twice as many ballots must be printed as were cast for the Republican candidate for presi dent at the last preceding election. The vote received bv McKlnley was 18,634 and therefore 37.26S ballots must be printed. Other Items of printing are return sheets, tally sheets, oaths of ofilce and affidavits. A ballot box must be secured for each district, which will add nn nddl tional $15G to the bill of expense. The election ofllcers havo to be supplied with Instructions and copies of the rules and men must bo employed to deliver the papers, ballots and boxes to each return Judge In the county, all of which will cost money, and there Is a possibility that in some Instances rent will have to be paid where the polls are In stores or private dwellings. In the light of all these Items of ex penses -which must be met, It would appear that the estimate of the county committee that $1,500 will be required to defray the expenses was close to the mark. Any balance left ufter paying exnenses will go Into tho campaign fund. HANDSOME PIPE ORGAN. It Hns Been Placed in the New Masonic Temple. Tho Mnsonlc temple on Spruce street has Just been embellished with n handsome new pipe organ which was built by tho Moller Manufacturing company, of Hagerstown, Maryland, and secured through Guernsey. It is a fine Instrument of two manuals and fifty-four pipes nnd will bo operated by electric power. In nppearance It harmonizes most charmingly with tho olive tones of the vaulted celling and Is tastefully re lieved with gold. It Is placed in a high loft at tho entrance of the hall nnd Its excellent tone has thus an ef fective scope. Tho organlRt will probably be Prof. C. B. Dorman. ADJUSTING THE INSURANCE, Tho Mt. Lookout Colliery to Be Re built at Once. The ndjusters aie busy with tho In surance of Mt. Lookout breaker. Owing to the recent changes in the company, and the absence from town of several members, the Insurance had not re ceived the customary attention nnd thus the losses nro greater than they would have been a few months ago. This Is chlelly due to the fact that It will cost from $15,000 to $23,000 more to rebuild the breaker than It would havo cost last summer, as the price of ma terials have so greatly advanced. It Is proposed to begin building oper ations as soon as possible. REPUBLICAN COUNTY CONVEN TION. In pursuance of a resolution of tho Re. publican county committee passed at a regular meeting held on Saturday, Aug. 19. 1S9S, tho county convention will be hold on Tuehday, September 20, at 2 p. m. In tho court hoube, Scranton, for the purpuse of computing returns and trans acting such other business as shall bo brought before It. Vlsllanco committees will hold pri mary elections on Saturday, September 23, 1699, between tho hours of 4 and 7 p. m. Each election district shall elect at said primary election three qualified persons to servo as vigilance commltteo for the next ensuing calendar ear, whose names shall bo certified to on the returns to tho county convention. Candidates who havo thus far regis, trred their names with the secretary and those who aro desirous of registering will observe tho requirements of rulo 7. which reads ns follow h: "Bach candidate shall pay his assessment to tho county chair man nt least twenty dajs before tho prl olcctlon. or his namo will not bo Nk.ll mnry election, or his name will not be printed on tho official ballot."

After n Four-nour Consultation tho Committee Wnlts on Superinten dent Russell nnd Resumes tho Con forencc They Aro Together from 5 O'clock to Nearly 0 O'clock with No Halt for Supper, but Fall to Fin lsu Business Adjournment Mndo Until 0 O'clock This Morning. As The Tribune exclusively an nounced he would, Grand Chief V. M. Arthur came here, yesterday, to nd vlse with tho Lacknwnnna engineers on the matters In dispute nt the con ference. He nrrlved from Clnclnnntl nt 10 o'clock nnd wns met nt tho Delnwnro Lackawanna nnd Western stntlon by Chnlrman Ell Vnll nnd other memnera of the engineer's committee. He ws escorted to the .Termyn and for an hour or so engaged In nn Informal talk with the committee. After luncheon he met the members of the committee In their rooms in Guernsey's hall and was In consultation with them until nearly 5 o'clock. At that hour the committee left Mr. Arthur and went to tho Lackawanna section to resume tho conference with Superintendent Russell. The latter was found ready to proceed and with no thought of meal time started In to bring tho matter to a close. FOUR HOUR SESSION. For nearly four hours the sessslon continued without recess, but when the doors finally opened and the wait ing reporters psked for the results the same answer was met: "We're not through yet and there Is nothing to be given out until the conference Is concluded." This and the fact that the conference Is to be resumed nt 0 o'clock this morning Is all the engineer committee men would permit themselves to say. Superintendent Russell was a little more generous. "W have reached nn agreement, on everything, now, except the matter of the number of hours to constitute a dnv, ho said. "The com mittee Insists on having ten hours ns the limit nnd tho company wants It fixed nt twelve hours." And then he ndded, "Wo enn't grant the ten-hour day. It would bo impossible to con struct, our business on that schedule." ARTHUR INTERVIEWED. Grand Chief Arthur wns seen by a Tribune reporter nfter he had come from tho consultation with the commit tee. He would only say that he had been called here by tho engineers to advise with them on certain matters, of which ho was not nt liberty to speak, and' that he would take no part In the conference unless It came to pass that the committee nnd tho com pany's representatives could not agree, when ho would step In and endeavor to effect a settlement. Chief Arthur says there Is no dan ger of a strike. Superintendent Rus sell says that nothing that has oc curred In tho conference warranted the rumors ot a strike being probable The engineers committee have said all along that there is nothing to strike about: that the conference Is proceeding satisfactorily and that everything will be amicably adjusted. HAS MADE NO PLANS. Professor Phillips Will Not Go Into Insurance Business. Professor George W. Phillips has not as yet decided upon his plans for tho coming year. While he has had many flattering inducements to re-enter tho business of Insurance, which he relin quished when he became principal In the new high school, he still feels that his profession as nn educator Is nenr cst his heart. In this connection Professor Phil lips is urged by many prominent citi zens to open a private school for col lego preparatory work nnd enough support Is pledged him to far more than realize the salary paid nt the high school. Tho old Homo for tho Friendless has been proposed for such nn enterprise, which It Is behoved by those Interested, would prove a per manent Institution of the city. The Rev. W. B. Costley, of Stock bridge, Oa., while attending to his pas toral duties at Ellenwood, that state, was attacked by cholera morbus lie says; "By chanco I happened to get hold of a bottle of Chamberlain's Collo, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, nnd I think It wns the means of saving my life.
