Some baking powders are claimed to be cheaper
They can be cheaper only if made from cheaper ma

cost of an article of food at the expense of its health
fulness, as is done in alum baking powders, is a crime.

FINALLY SETTLED.

Industrial Notes.
After ten weeks of Idleness due to
dissatisfaction over the scale of wages
paid, the employes of the Mt. Pleasant
colliery, operated by the Fuller Coal
company, will return to work today, a
compromise having been effected be
tween the strikers and the company
through Superintendent J. B. Keale.
On April 11 the men iult work and
several unsuccessful attempts were
made to operate the colliery, but only
a few men were obtained. To make
the stand of the miners more secure
employment was offered them by Con
tractor M. J. Gibbons on the Scranton
street sewer and many secured work
In other collieries. Some time ago a
proposition was submitted to the strik
ers by the company, which was re
jected. A conference committee was nfter
wards appointed to arbitrate the dif
ferences, and last Friday evening they
met with Superintendent Nettle at the
mine office and accepted three of the
propositions offered by the company.
Another meeting was held Saturday
evening, when the trouble was practi
cally adjusted and the committee ac
cepted the schedule then submitted. All
that remained was the ratifications of
the proposals by the employes of the
colliery.
A meeting was accordingly held In
Co-operative hall, "West Scranton, last
evening, which was attended by the
superintendent, the general committee
nnd the strikers. The new schedule
was formally ratified and the colliery
will be started up this morning with
the men In their nccustomed places.
The mules will bo taken Into the mine
today and It Is expected operations
will be resumed In the breaker tomor
row morning.
Tho proposition submitted by the
company makes It possible for the em
ployes to earn from BO cents to a dollar
a day more than they were receiving
prior to the strike. They will now re
ceive twelve cars to a keg of powder
all through the Dunmoro vein and J3.G0
per yard for cutting coal and rock on
ihe rib and 75 cents per foot for cutting
rock In tho chambers.
The settlement was effected solely
by the Mt. Pleasant employes and the
officials of tho company.
chase their entire supplies from that
company, but the regulation had never
been enforced.
Mr. Held said that 13 mills had been
shut down because of their poor loca
tion, but 23 new ones had been started.
There are 39 establishments In the
combination. Without the tariff, Mr.
Held thought It would be impossible
to manufacture tin plate In the United
States. The margin Is now sufficient
to permit tho Increase of tho price of
American tin plate to $5.23 per box
(now $4.G3 F. O. V. mills) before bring
ing It Into competition with the Eng
lish product.
Mr. Held estimated that the manu
facture of our own tin plate had re
sulted In keeping at least $3.'i,000,000 of
money In this country, which other
wise would have gone nbroad. In the
3!) establishments owned by the com
bine there were 300 mills, while the
outside establishments contain 27 mills.
The American Tin Plate company
manufactures nine-tenths of tho tin
plate made in this country and con
trols the prices.

Officers of tho American Tin Plnte
company havo beeA giving testimony
bpforo tho Industrial commission at
Washington.
D. G. Held, president of. tho Ameri
can Tin Plato corryiany, In replying to
a question, said that Judge Moors had
organized the combination and had re
ceived $10,00i),000 worth of common
stock. The capital stock is $50,000,000,
of which $18,325,900 is 7 per cent, pre
ferred cumulative stock unci 128,000,000
common stork. .
The prices of the product had In
creased rapidly since tho organization,
and there had been a corresponding
ndvunce In wages. Ho estimated that
the Increase in wages and In em
ployes would represent an enlarged
pay roll of J2.000.000 annually. The
rolling mill men in tin plate works
were paid as high as $10 per day, the
highest price paid to any laborers In
the world, Tho average wages of all
the company's employes were $2.50 per
day. The advance In the price af tho
finished product had not been equal
to that of tho raw material and wages.
Ho admitted that there hud been talk
of a requirement on tho part of the
tin plato company that patrons for
whom the company should make epe

O. & W. Summer Schedule.
Commencing Sunday, June 21, the
New York, Ontario and Western Rail
road company's summer schedule will
bpcome effective. Owing to the popu
larity which this road is meeting with
each season, and the growing demands
made upon It by the traveling public,
they have this year mado ampl.e pro
visions for tho Increased traffic by
placing another through train service
between New York city and Sidney, N.
Y., which territory practically covers
the many summer resorts controlled by
that company.
The change will also bo a vast Im
provement on their past service, so far
as its Scranton division Is concerned.
Owing to the untiring efforts of Super
Intenilent Williams, arrangements have
been completed to have Scranton divis
ion trains connect tit Cadosla.the Junc
tion point with their main line, with
the Sidney truln, thus allowing its
patrons at Sidney, Walton, Delhi, Ham
den and Intermediate points to come
to Scranton and return the same day.
This move will be greatly appreci
ated by the Scranton merchants, es
pecially, as they havo been desirous
for some time to bring this matter
about, owing to tho largo iimount of
trade that has been going to Bingham-
ton, Utlca and other New York state
towns that will now come to Scranton.
There will also be an early morning
train from Carbondale, arriving at
Scranton about 7.40 o'clock, which is
intended to accommodate the large
number of clerks nnd other working
classes that are dally pouring Into tho
city from towns up the valley, a re
turn train being run for their accom
modation, leaving Scranton at 6 p. m.
The afternoon train from New York
city, Middletown, Liberty and other
eastern points, arriving at Scranton at
4.20 o'clock, will remain as heretofore,
but their morning train, leaving Scran
ton at 10.53. will hereafter leave Scran
ton at 10.10 a. m., nnd the afternoon
train, Instead of leaving at 4.15, will
leave Scranton at 3.43 o'clock.
The latter change was made for tho
accommodation of summer traffic to
the mountains In Wayne county, en
abling the .passengers to reach their
destination at a much more desirable
time.
This train will also make connec
tions for Walton, Delhi, Hnmden and
Sidney, thus allowing people from that
vicinity five hours In which to do their
shopping at Scranton.
There will also be two trains each
way between scranton ana uarnon
dale, at 7 a. m. and 5.54 p. m., return
ing leave Scranton at 8.30 a. m. and 7
p. m.
With this additional sprvlce, together
with the low rate of two cents per
mile In operation by the New York,
Ontario andWestern railroad, no doubt
this road will handle a goodly share of
the passenger business to and from
Scranton this summer.

"Blind Henry" Wright, formerly and
for years of Susquehanna county, but
now of Blnghamton, has been cut off
from the pension list of the govern
ment. It Is claimed that he obtained
his pension fraudulently. About twelve
years ago he was granted a pension of
$72 per month, and $17,000 back pension.
His amount was tho largest ever re
ceived, at the time, by a private sol
dier. He has received $27,000 from the
government and squandered It by
unwise speculations.
The Erie today commenced running
a palace coach between Honesdalo and
New York.
It is rumored that the Erie will
build a four truck road between Port
Jervls and New York.
The Erie Railroad company, which
a day or two ago gave formal notice
that In consequence of violations of the
joint passenger agreement by other
lines, It would consider It absolved
from adherence to that compact, has
not yet withdrawn from the joint pas
senger committee. Unless the griev
ances from which It complains shall
be remedied, however, the road will.
It Is said, certainly withdraw, a step
which railroad men believe would In
evitably be followed by the dissolu
tion of the joint passenger committee
and the beginning of a serious pas
senger rate war. Tho principal com
plaint of tho Erie is directed against
the New York Central, and Is based
upon the alleged action of tho Central
In Increasing the speed of certain of
Its trains running between New York
and Chicago, without charging a cor
responding excess fare.

Silks at Nearly Half Price.
The headline promises very much double value. The actual bargain sustains
the promise. You must see the goods iu order to reach tin intelligent conclusion
concerning the importance of the offering. One lot consists of 3000 yards of tho
finest one dollar Foulard Silks, of the season. They are of a rich, firm, close
weave and pure silk 24 inches wide. Part of the good fortune is at the cost of tho
manufacturers. Other lots are smartly reduced from our own stocks. If you
wish a new Foulard Silk Dress that will cost wonderfully little (scarcely more than
a cotton one) choose from this lot early.
Price 58c Yard.
Colors are blue, resedo, old rose, purple, heliotrope, navy, biscuit and black, mostly
with small neat figure effects in white and black, that are entirely and decidedly
pretty TRULY A GREAT SILK BARGAIN.
Another Lot
Equally Desirable
Consists of 00 yards of the finest all silk Grenadine?, real value of which, is $1.25
a yard, which we offer at the reduction price of
50c a Yard.
These are new goods of the present season and a finer lot of Grenadines were never1
offered for 3ale. It is a fine, firm, well woven Grenadine that will not pull out at
the seams and will wear as well as any silk we know, though very light iu weight,
Colors are grey, white and black effects.
