Other Notes of Intctest.
The recent change: at the car shops
have enabled the workmen to partially
meet the Increased dvnmiiJ for cars but
the nupply is far from what la needed.
The miner, aic woiklng full tima
every day In order to supply the orders
for coal, but the cry is lor more earn.
The repair shops are crowded with
crippled cars' and many ate In course1
of erection.
Kvery available, car In the service of
the company hut- been utilized, and un
less the supply Is euual to the demand
soon, the mines will necessarily be put
on shorter hours. While this is. lua
principally to the Increased ordeis for
ro.'il, and the enormous shipments of
freight over the road, the contpany can
not relieve- the condition owing to the
near-city of cars.
The demand for.cnrs Is not alone eon
lined to the. Lackawanna s.stem, but la
unite general throughout the country,
and recently large orders were placed
by the Pennsylvania and Lehigh Val
ley companies lor additional cars. The
Increased business on the railroads Is
certainly an evidence of prosperity and
If the piesent conditions exist through
out the winter months, this locality
will witness the greatest Industrial ac
tivity in many years.
Delaware and Hudson Doings,
Some time ago the Delaware and
Hudson company removed the two
mine locomotives which were previous
ly housed In Plymouth, to the round
house in Wilkes-Harre, and It was re
ported at the time that the engines at
Mill Creek would also he brought to
the same place. The Mill Creek crews
were considerably exercised over tho
matter, as many of the men own their
own properties In that town, and could
not afford to move their families to
Wllkes-IJarre.
Months passed and the men conclud
ed that the rumor of removal was with
out foundation, but on Friday last bul
letins were posted announcing that oil
November 1 the Mill Creek round house
will be abandoned and the engines at
present housed there will be removed,
to the round house In Wllkes-Rarre.
There are four engines and crews,
and the removal upon such short notice
will entail considerable discomfort to
the men unless provision is made fop
carrying them to and from their work.
At present there are no trains running
early enough to take the. men down in
time for work, and unless they move
to Wilkes 15arre, they will bo com
pelled to walk a distance of four miles.
Pome of them will move as soon as they
ran find suitable houses, but the ma
jority of them own their houses at
Mill Creek nnd cannot remove before
Bpring.
Heretofore the crows have been in
charge of Vardmaster Wilson Shiffer,
nt Mill Creek, hut by the new arrange
ment they will be under the supervision
of Yardmaster James lirady, oT
Wilkes-Barre. The engineers and fire-

men, however, will be placed udder the
supervision of Pat Herron at present,
foreman of the round house at Green
HUige, but who will assume charge In
Wllkes-Harre November 1.
The Delaware and Hudson, like all
other roads Is working Its men to the
limit, hut are making provisions for nil
extra traffic that may come along dur
ing the winter months.
A number of new engines have been
ordered, and extra crews will be emi
ployed If necessary.
Must Use Anthracite.
The managers of the Jersey Central
railroad have Issued an order that an
thracite coal shall be used exclusively
on all of the road's engines. This will
probably induce the other railroads to
also discontinue the use of bituminous
coal for both patscnger and freight
and coal traffic.
The presidents of the anthracite coal
carrying toads are of the belief that
beneficial effects aie to follow this Im
portant chnnge.
This and That.
It Is stated that th Jersey Central
railroad has entered Into an agreement
with the rsuffalo and Western whereby
the latter will be enabled to run trains
via Tamanun to Chicago over n route
said to be thirty -four lnjles shorter
than any other. Nothing official has
been given out vet, hoveer, to.conflrm
the report.
The Sharon Steel company, which will
erect a thiee million dollar steel mill
south of Sharon, Is laying out a new
town. The streets are t be paved and
sewered and one hundred new houses
nre under course of erection. Three
handled more are to be built. The
steel mill will employ two thousand
men. A btreet car line Is also to be ex
tended to the new town.
Negotiations are belig conducted on
the part of Senator Mirk A. Hanna, of
Ohio, to secure control of the well
known Prltch Iron o-e beds In Long
Kwamp township, Berks county, close
to the Montgomery (ounty line. They
are twenty-six and a half acres In ex
tent, with an ore deposit of great depth
over the entire tract An effort is also
being made to obtull control of adjoin
ing ore lands.
STILL THEY'RE KICKING.
Wilkes-Barre Wanted That Fifty Dol
lars Mifhty Bad.
"It seems that tfter all the Wllkes
Uarre fire departnent will not get the
$30 prize won at Scranton for having
the laigest and landsomest engine in
the line of the stite fii emeu's parade.
The following leter to Chief Schuler
from Chief Waller, of Scranton, ex
plains the situation:
" 'Your letter f Oct. 25 at hand, and
In regard to the same, would say that
when the Judges submitted their de
cision they avurded the prize to
Philadelphia Sfam Fire company, of
Pottstown. After having the affidavit
read, that waf entered by the chief
of police of yrar city, the committee
took the matfr out of the hands of
the judges anl awarded the prize to
your departmmt. At the next meet
ing the commttee reconsidered its ac
tion nnd referred the matter back to
the Judges, aid they reported In favor
of Pottstown for the reason that their
engine was In service and had seen
service, vhirh they claim your's had
not."
"The 'ba.br act' which Scranton al
ways plays when anything relative to
WIlkes-Bune Is at stake Is again
shown. 'Ills Is not the first Instance.
Chief of Police Kline sent to Scranton
a note staling that the Wilkes-Barre
engine had been accepted and paid for
and was, therefore, In service, and
there was some satisfaction when the
committee reversed Its decision and
nwarded 'ho prize to Wilkes-Barre.
But the committee could not long
stomach anything like this, nnd In a fit
of remors reconsidered Its action by
jeferrlng the matter back to the judges.
It has alvays been known that Scran
ton Is Jealous In big things, but to
carry spl o into such a comparatively
small thng as this Is cause not for
protest, but for utter contempt."
