This and That.
A few days ago the Central Rallioad
issued an otder which Is of considerable
Interest to railroaders. One man has
been taken off each freight train i mi
ning between Allentown and Jeiiey
City. This leaves a crow for each of
one conduetoi, one brakeman and n
flagman. 'This step was brought about
by the Introduction of air bieaks.
At a recent meeting of the stock
holders of the Hallstead Land Improve-
ment Co. tho following ofllcers and dl- j
rectors wcro elected to sotve for tho.
coming. fiscal jear: Piesldent, (!. M,

CONTROLLER'S COMPENSATION.
Arguments Made Befoie the Su
preme Court on Wednesday.
City Solicitor Vosliuig on Wednes
day last argued before the Supreme
court In Philadelphia In behalf of Con
troller Howell, in thu uppeul of tho
Scranton school board fium Judge
Arclibald's ruling lef using a manda
mus to compel the controller to coun
tersign school bouid wan ants.
The board's attorney, D. J. needy,
argued for the school district, and pre
sented the oft-printed and1 quoted ar
guments in favor of tho constitution
ality of the act of 1874, under which
the present board is transacting busi
ness. As Judge Archbnld In his rul
ing, again declared the act unconsti
tutional, this lino of aigument had
to bo gone over again.
Mr. Vosburg's argument was based
upon two propositions: Flist, that tho
act of 1S74, as far oh it relates to the
relations between school districts and
the city controller is unconstitutional.
It Is unconstitutional, lie argued, be
muse theie are two subjects legislated
upon which hao no conectlon with
olp another, municipalities and sew
ft1.' It woh also contended that tho
act was In violation of that eectlon of
the constitution piohlblting locul legis
lation1 inasmuch iih It applies to only
a.' few of the bchool districts of the
tate.
The second propostyon of Mr. Vos-
burg was that whether the act of 1874
Is unconstitutional or not, that por
tion Imposing a dutv on the city con
troller Is repeated by the act of 1899,
P. Li. 277. It was pointed out that the
sections of this last act enumerating
the duties of the controller contain no
reference to any duty Imposed upon
him with reference to the school dis
trict. Therefore, argued Mr. Vosburg,
when all the. essential features of an
act are (supplied by a later act, the for
mer will bo deemed to have been re
pealed by Implication, although there
bo no repealing clause.
In conclusion Mr. Vosburg stated
that the city treasurer Is compensated
for his work while the city controller
perfoims a largo amount of work for
which ho hns neer received any com
pensation whnteei. Mr. Vosbuig re
turned to this city yeatetduy.
COATS MUST FIGHT FOR IT.
Nephews Trying to Get the Fortune
Away from Him.
Peiry Coats, the Inmate of tho poor
farm of the Scranton poor district, who
recently fell heir to $14,000 through the
death of his sister at Albany, N. V,,
will have to give up n fight for tho es
tate. Otnige Rcemer, the superintendent
of tho Hillside Home, was In Albany
this week looking after Coats' Inter
ests. ll lenrned, thnt the latter"
nephews are trjlng to get letters of
administration on their aunt's estate.
'1 hey also alleged that there was a
will In which their aunt left her prop-i-itv
to them but It haR disappeared.
The sun ogntp has fixed March 1 as
the time for the hearing. Mr. Beemer
will be priscnt at It.
ANOTHER VIEW OF CASE
Captoln Colvin, of Parsons, Gives
Reasons Why Culm Should Be
Flushed Into Old Workings.
Captain John D Colvin. of Patsons,
supeilimndcnt of the Algonquin and
..iuii'1 Run Coal company, one of the
best infoimed coal woikers In the le
gion, does not agree with the views e
piesed by J. Uiidner Sandcison In
his letter to the Hnird of Trade Mon
day night. Captain Colvin sas:
I think Mi. Sanderson Is either mis
tnki n or hits It i,l no practical expoil
liii In inliiilni; m taking the pillars
f.oln nttr antlii irltn co.il fields Aliottt
11m vonrs mo the Laurel Run Coal ram
pun was one of the lust to flush, or till
tin the old oritliu's with culm or ic
fnsi ftom tho lurk and brother, .-mil
l.m boon taking out the pillars In the
ild woil'liigb that weio abandoned as
woithless ftom flftrtn to twenty eara
ago W( hive betn nblo by the flushing
plo'tss to take out out from JO to 50
per cent, of ult coat left in pillars, oi In
other wotds, hivu been able to mine at
least 90 nor cent, of all tho coal in the
vein. Vlmtit ji or 40 per cent, of this
(otild not poslhl have been taken out
without flushing with culm (as It was
not possible to rob thee pillars by plop
ping .(loin ).
Janus II Dio, siipeilntendent for the
Phiiiouth Coal company, at Luzerne
borough and Plvmnuth, has an article In
the IVbruar) number of Mines and Min
ing showing diawlngs of their method of
robbing the jilll irs in the Red Ash vein
after flushing with culm, which Is a en
blblo and practical tuttment. I elilm
tint In veins nbovo th Red Ash vein wo
can do still better and take out n larger
percentage of the coal than tint shown
by Mr. Davis. Purthc imoie, the coal In
our old culm bmks has lost from 41 to CO
per cent, of its combustion from heating
and loss of gases. Hy Hushing our old
mines wo can save SO por cent, more fuel
than ve can g. t from the culm, nnd
of tho very best quality, nul by refilling
nfttr pillars have been taken out ran
leave valuable surface intact, fit and
safe for building and other uurposcs.
If tho operators of Wjomlng and
Lackawanna Valley coal flelds hud adopt
ed the method of (lushing ull refuse btek
Into the mines thirty oi forty vears ago,
todas tlure wruld have been millions of
tons oi coal to be mined that now It Is
an Imnn-slliinty to get on account of
fillh nnd othei obstructions, and the llfo
of the anthracite cotl fields would have
been prolonged for a period of lort. or
tlttv jeais
Tor every ton of culm flushed Into the
mines where the workings are hi good
condition we can take out at least one
and one-half tons of coal, which wruld
be a savlig of at least 100 , per cent, to
the vvoilth of the toal flel Is over and
above wh.it fuel could be taken fiom tho
culm .and leftice used for refilling.
It does not rewrite nn cxnort mining
engineer to flush culm Into the mines or
taki- out plllais li requites only epe
tlcnco nnd practical common sense.

Tho Idea of pa)ing a tax of $C0 a

It needs no comment. If It is unlawful

their share.
