Output for Year 1800.
The Anthracite Coal Operators' hfso-
clatlon gives the following figures with
reference to the output for 1899:
January 3,762.000
February 2,810,000
March 3,417.000
April 3,078,000
May 3,558,000
June 4,073.000
July 4.1S9.000
August 4,319010
September 4,366 000
October 4,889.000
November 4.Sr.4,000
Total, eleven months 43,315,000
It Is probable- that thi output In De
cember will be about 4,500,000, brlngin;;
the actual total cloo to the estimate.
The Tin Plate Company.
Ii. K. Tnrbet. organi;.er of the new
tin plate company, Is at present wait
ins upon the West Scnmton people In
the matter of stock subscriptions. Hi
has given them until .Tun. 1, to sub
scribe what he considers a sufficient
amount to wan ant him locating the
industry In that part of the cltv, and
In the meantime he is not doing any
active soliciting himself.
Just what Mr. TorW considers a
sufficient sum for the West Pcranton
lans to subscribe Is a bit of mystery,
but It Is generally believed that $100,
000 Is very near the figure. It Is un
derstood that about $150,000 worth ot
stock has alrpndy been sunserlbed or
Is In sight entirely independent ot
West Scranton subscriptions.
ProvIdlr.tr that by Jan. 1 ths West
Scranton people have not contributed
a sufllcient amount of capital, and Mr.
Torbet says if th"v have not it will
not be through tinv lack of energy oh
the part of the West Side board of
trade's soliciting committee, there aK
strong hopes entertnlncd of a sufllc
ient sum being raised from other
sources.
Tho most superficial Investigation
will prove that the following atnteincnt
from a resident of Scrnnton Is true.
Rend tt nnd compare evidence from
Scranton alone with testimony from
outside places, published Clde by side
with this In tho columns of this paper.
Investlrate still further, and you will
bo surprised at the rumber of- people
In Scranton who re-echo what this
citizen says :
Mr. Albert Uoskelly, ot 311 North
Everett avenue, Hyde Park, engineer
at the Capousc mines, says: "I had for
years, a dull pain across my back. My
back felt lame and sore, so much so
that when I bent over It was all I

The Luzerne county committee of the
Young Men's Christian association
has largely solved the problem of how
the young men of the mining towns
nnd villages may bo reached and their
lives directed Into more useful chan
nels. Therefore, It has been deemed
wise to enlarge tho scope of this move
ment to cover the entlie anthracite
coal fields, because the need for the
work Is very pressing In every county
wheie anthracite coal Is mined, the
problems are the same all over the re
gion, and a stronger and more effective
work can be done.
This woik Is now a division of the
operations of the State Young Men's
Chilstlan association and directly un
der its supervision. The plan of work
will be practical and aggressive, as It
has been for tho last Uw years, thrcj
men being employe 1 to devote all their
time In the field, namely, a general
secretary, an evungelistlc and Bible
study secretary and a forelgn-speakins
secretary. All three have been work
ers In the county work and understand
from experience what Is required to
successfully carrv It on.
The following Is the report for tho
year 1899 In nut-shell form contained
In llgures that speak volumes.
Over 15,000 books, testaments, tractn,
pamphlets and clrculais have been dis
tributed specially adapted to help
young men.
Uncle Sam lias transmitted from our
ofllce to tlfty mining villages 1,700 let
ters, postals and circulars consisting
largely of encouraging words to young
men.
even thousand and twenty-five mlle3
have been traversed by rail, bicycle,
wagon and on foot, every mllo of
which has been traversed for the ob
ject of helping some young man.
Operations both permanent and tem
porary have been conducted In twenty
mining towns and villages, situated In
' four of the anthracite producing coun
ties namely, Lackawanna, Luzerne,
Schuylkill and Carbon. Much of this
work has been shared In by volunteers
who aro reaping tho benefit in expe-
i rlcnce nnd valuable training.
As a direct result, over one hundred
young men have been reached and
their lives diverted into proper chan
nels. The work has been In very clo3
touch with tho men, 1,370 visits bilng
made to homes, to the shops, down In
tne mines, and In tho oftlces and stoiek
at the right time and In the right way.
Seventy-four gatherings for men only
were held In the open fields by the
roadside, In tho street, at the mouth
of the mines, in school houses and In
churches. Over 6,000 men attended
those meetings.
Nearly 10,000 people attended th
