Steady Employment Will Be Given to 1,800 Hands Who Have Been Idle in Some Instances for Nearly Blx Months Lackawanna Likely to Tap Bradford County Scarcity of Cars Is Not Causing as Much Troublo Hero as in the West. Minor Notes. Three of the Delaware, Lackawanna rind Western collieries that have been Idle for more or less extended periods will resume operations Just as soon as they can be put In shape. They are tho Sloan, the Central and tho Hyde Park, all located In Keyser Valley. By Judicious manaftement In the transportation department the Lacka wanna has escaped the car famine and, being In a position to take advantage of the present blgrdemand for coal. proposes to make all that Is possible out of Us advantage. All tho collieries will be worked to their fullest capacity and these threa collieries, .which have laid Idle for one reason or another for from six weeks to six months, will be gotten In shape for work with all possible haste, that the most can be made out of the pres ent boom. Tho Sloan and Central had been op erated jointly since the burning of the Central breaker. When the slump came In the market they went Idle and thero was no telling when they would start up again, until the present boom came. Tho Hyde Park colliery was shut down nbout six weeks ago for repairs. The icpairs were progressing at an ordi nary rate until now, but from this on they will be pushed with all rapidity. Superintendent Loomls says that It will not be long after the first of October before all three collieries will be going again at their full capacity. Each colliery employed about COO hands. When they shut down these men were taken care of as far as poi slhle at the other mines, but many of them have had to be content with .v clay now and then wherever they could go: o Job. Not So Bad Hereabouts. The car famlno Is not having as ill effects here as In the west. If any thing It Is beneficial to this Immediate locality, because the soft coal shippers who are more seriously affected by the scarcity of cars are unab'e to nil their orders, and the anthracite people as a consequence are making Inroads on their territory. The Lackawanna anticipate the boom and at the sacrifice of som small orders kept their cars at home. In consequence It has a fully supply and, as related above, Is looking about for more coal. The Delaware and Hudson company has also refused orders which meant a long detention of cars and Is like wise In very good shapo for shipping. There was some trouble In th9 early stages of the boom, but when custom ers who detained care beyond a ica sonable time found that the aaW de partment was discriminating against them and In favor of dealers who re turned cars at once, they plead guilty, promised reform and when g'ven an opportunity showed they were sincere by dumping the cars at once and ship ping them right back to the compnny. The Importance of this matter 's evi dently not realized by the customers. A big car will earn in a time llk. this a net profit of $C0 a day. The custom er seems to Imagine where he piy.s the required sum a.day demurrage that the company hup -no cause to further demur. In up-to-date American, it 's very probable that "he has another think coming." What tho companies think of it mav be gather from the fact that the Dela ware and Hudson has created the office of car tracer and placed It In charge of one of the best men In its sales de partment, E. M. Vernoy. Extending the Lackawanna. There Is a strong probability that tho Lackawanna will tap Bradford county. A proposition has been made to Presi dent Truesdale to have the Lackawan na extend a line from Nichols, Tioga county, down through Rome and then over to Leltaysvllle, a distance of twenty-six miles through one of the ilchest valleys In the United States. The proposition contemplates the construction of the road by the Lacka wanna with the assistance of the resi dents of the region, and It Is said Presi dent Truesdale looks upon It with much favof. The company will be granted a free right of way, and if It wishes to dis pose of some of the stock, to Insure co operation from the residents of the region, the local promotors will agroo to take a good-sized block of It. The route has been surveyed by the Dunning Engineering company, of this city, and Chief Engineer Dunning Is to show President Truesdalo over the pro posed line Just as soon as the latter can find time to make tho trip. Hon. Frank Moore, of Leltaysvllle. Is at the head of the project. Ho saya the road Is sure to come and feels that the Lackawanna will not hesitate to tako it in hand, when its advantages are understood. Another Big Breaker. Tho Improvements being made at the Packer No. 4 colliery at Ashland aro being pushed as rapidly as possible. T. IM. Kerns has been awarded the con trat to build a track from the Packer No. 3 colliery. It is the purpose of the Lehigh Val ley Coal company to abandon the old breakers at Packer Nos. 1 and 3 and to build a mammoth breaker on the elto of the present No. 4 colliery; all coal from Packer No. 3 colliery will be taken by overland track by a locomo tive and tho coal from Packer No. 2 colliery will be taken underground to the new breaker and the output from the above collieries will then be run through the new breaker and there pre pared for market. This will bo one of the largest and Making Powder ca , wtw von. most Improved breakers In tho anthra cite coal regions. Thin and That. Last Saturday was a record breaker In the matter of coal shipments from here over the Lackawanna. The total tonnage was 27,800 tons. The Ktle Railroad company has pur chased 16,000 lanteinw, with which It will decorate Its piers In Jersey City nnd Wechawken in honor of Admiral Dewe? It Is an undisputed fact that there Is no railroad or private concern that has as modern nnd up-to-date a blacksmith shop as the one Just completed at Sayre for tho Lehigh Valley. C. A. Tenbrooke, tho new division freight agent for tho Lackawanna main line, will lake charge Oct. i. He is now In the city acquainting him self v'.th his dutl-"". Mr. TeilnonUe came from the Wabash and 1 nckawan na Dispatch. A new breaker, one of the largest In the world, has Just been completed and put In operation at WUIIamstown by the Pennsylvania Coal company. The starting ol tho breaker will glvo em ployment to 200 more miners. The capacity Is 2,000 tons n day. The electric lighting system at White Mills, Wayne county, Is now Installed nnd on Saturday evening next the cur rent will bo tumed on for the Mist time. The system Is opened as an ad junct to the Hawley Klectrlc Light company, which Is composed of Scrnn ton men. The current for White Mills Is supplied from Hawley over a five mile wire. Ofllcials say that If traffic continues to grow In October and November ns It has in the last thirty days, a car fum Ine will exist on every road In tlm country. This, they say, means that earnings will continue to show largo gains over those of former years. The famlno will likely result In a faster freight schedule all over the country, which may bo retained after the supply of cars has been Increased to meet the demand A railroad man in commenting upon the shortage of cars, said: "The rail roads are short 100.000 cars. This Is In spite of the fact that they have this year added 100,000 cars to their equip ment. These new cars hold from onp half more to double tho amount of tho old cars, and we make them 10 par cent, more valuable still by better methods of handling them. Hut, con sidering all this, the car shortage is relatively greater than It ever was be fore." A LONG TROLLEY RIDE. Col. George Snndersou Returns from New England States. Colonel George Sanderson, who has Just returned from a long trolley ride through the New England states, was seen yesterday by a Tribune represen tative and spoke Interestingly of his trip. "I had no idea," he said, "that so much pleasure could be obtained In buch an informal. Bohemian way of traveling, but when I suy I have sel dom more thoroughly enjoyed myself It comprehends nbout nil I can say The open air, pure and fresh, the opportun ity for seeing everything and studying human nature as It npnears in tho ever-changing passenger, the getting off to look at Interesting and hlstorl-ul Places without fear of mis dug tralnr, all combine to make It Ideal wh"ti not hurried. "Last spring my brother-ln-iw i;a ward H. Sturges, and I agi-c-M to try the experiment of a Ions trol'py trip this fall and last Monday thr oppor tunity of combining business with pleasure came. With Thomas E. Jones, who also had some business in the vicinity of Boston, I wont to South port, where we spent the night at Mr. Sturges" cottage and left ai 3 o'clock Tuesday morning by trolley for Bridge port. "We traveled by steam toad from there to Beilln. Conn., where tho trip proper commenced. From Berlin Ma New Britain to Hartford, about sixteen miles, was a beautiful ride. At Hart ford wo took a hearty lunch and left lor hpungneiu, .Mass., about twenty six miles, broken by a carriage ride of live miles. "The roads passed through Windsor, tho old town of Enfield nnd other beau tiful New England villages. Enlleld particularly interested me, as our fam ily records show It was settled by an cestors on my mother's side the Spald Ings. Here nlso is the birthplace of the famous Senator Dixon. "We wont by rail from Springfield to Worcester, as It was late, and left tho latter city early in the morning, In tending to go through to Boston, but ns It was raining wo went only to South Framlngham nnd from there bv steam road. "Tho next morning we took the trol ley for Salem via Lynn and beautiful Swampscott and Mnrbtehead. At Salem we looked over the ancient records and wnrrunts for the execution of thn 'witches, and then took the steam road for Boston. "In the afternoon we went to Ply mouth, where, of course, wo spent an Interesting time at the 'Rock,' 'Burial Hill,' etc. Friday morning we left Bos ton for Fall River a beautiful ride. At Taunton, Mr. Sturges left us and wont by trolley to Providence and thence by tho steam road to Southport. "Mr. Jones and I kept on to Fall River and Newport. At the latter place we spent nn hour or so driving around, took supper nnd then boarded tho bott for New York. I do not think one who has never taken the trip can apprecl ate how thoroughly enjoyable It was "It will not bo long before Cook will be having special cars for trolloj ex cursions, as it looks as If there will bo network of trolley lines out through our beautiful country. "The sensation of up and down hill riding reminded us of the gravity, and most people remember how exhllarat Ing a. ride to Honcsdale or Hawley was." UNCALLED FOB LETTERS.
