What Financial Review Says. The last number of the Financial Re view contained the following: "While the dreadful accident on the Lackawanna railroad at Paterson is greatly to be deplored, there seems, In our opinion, no ground for the strict ures that have been leveled at tha company. As Is Well known, the Lack awanna Is one of the best equipped roads as far as safety and comfort are concerned In the country, while Its management Is every detail Is under the control of men whose experience, ami vigilance have gained for them wide reputation. The Investigation In to the event was one that could not b-j foreseen. "That the engineer of the train which ran into the express committed a griev ous error In not obeying the slilet rulo of tho company In slackening speed . 1 he approached the station is manifest, and had he not thus violated a regula tion that Is as Imperative upon em ployes as It Is necessary, tho collision would not have happened. The otllclals of the company deserve commendation for prompt attention to the comfort nnd care of the passengers and to the solicitations and inquiries of their anx lo'is friends. Their open policy of giv ing full Information o the public la also In favorable contiast to that of rival organizations, which, when ills- bright white light that our Headlight Water White Oil tltoi, and know the real meaning of lamp luxury, mere no excuio for dingy rooms ana poor looking larapi la these days of pure oil.

"Under tho able dlrectlonof President Trttesdalu tho affairs of the Lacka wanna road have been placed upon a footing that makes Its system as near perfection as possible. This has been accomplished In the face of many dis couraging obstacles. To President Tiuesdale and hln able assistants III tho various departments belongs the credit, and the public as well as the stockholders appreciate the work thus far accomplished." This and That. Friday another new engine was com pleted for the Delaware and Hudson rallioad at the Cliff works. In two or three duys the third will be ready to leavo the shops. At tho Lackawanna cur shops there has lately been built a good many cin der cars, which open on either side and arc the size of tho ordinary gondola. Lach side has four doors, which arc hinged to the top rail. The cars urn In tho yard yet, waiting to be lettered und numbered. Tho Philadelphia Car Service asso ciation during November handled 195, -152 cars, of which 62,809 were for the Pennsylvania and allied lines, CS.576 for the Heading and the balance for the D.iltlnitiip & Ohio und other lines In thi teirltory i-overed by the associa tion. The total average detention per car In days of these cars was 1.43 days. It Iri leported that the Lehigh Co.U and Navigation company may erect u new breaker at Greenwood, near Tani uqua. Tho Towanda Itevlew Is jubilant over a rumor that tho Lehigh Valley has set aside $950,000 for improvements on the Pennsylvania and New York di vision, and that $330,000 of the sum will be spent at Towanda. It gots on to say that It means n new bridge across the river, bringing train? Into Towanda near the foot of Chestnut street and that the sharp curve between Wysnx and East Towanda Is to bo straight ened and lots of other improvements. Three compressed air engines ate now being made for the Delaware and Hudson company by the Dickson Man ufacturing company. Two large tanks will be In them which will contain 900 pounds of compressed air, which In tha smaller tanks Is reduced to 130 pounds. This Is sullleicnt quantity to haul a train of thirty loaded mine cars a mllo und a half. Each engine Is equipped with air motors which the air con tained in the tank operates. They are mounted upon six twenty-six In.'h wheels. Tho top of the tank Is 44 Inches above the road bed and the cy linders are OxlS Inches. THE COUNTY ASSESSMENT Instructions That Have Been Issued by the Commissioners to Asses sors with Reference to It. The county commissioners during tho week have heoh Issuing to the asses sors of tho county the books and pa pers required In making up tho county assessment, which each year becomes moro complicated and dilllcult. Resides tho regulation tax assess ment the assessors now make- a regis tration of those capable of doing uer vlce as soldiers, of those of an age to attend school and of the owners of bicycles. A pottlon of tho Instructions Issued to ussessor3 with reference to making the general assessment are as follows: The Importance of making a complete and correct assessment of Lackawanna county at the piesent time Is evident to all, and to becure this and aid you In jour woik we send thchc instiuctlolis with our precept.

The precept culls for an assessment at a full valuation. For county purposes we think that this would give us more than tho amount necessary on which to levy taxes, nnd therefore Instinct jou when copying Into the book to bo ie turned to this olllcc, that you enter tho alue ot real estate and personal prop erty at one-half of full valuation. Hut for stale purposes enter full valuation. We append a list of occupations and valuations to bo assessed ugatnst the same.
