IU3ADY FOR
HAZED AND
SHIPMENT.
North Mill Starts Up Today to Help
Out the South Mill In Filling tho
Ball Orders Now on Hand, That
tho Work of Tearing Down the
Mills and Moving Them to Buffalo
May Bo Proceeded with at tho
Earliest Possible Opportunity.
Meeting Hero Wednesday.
Scranton can now prepare to
farewell to the Lackawanna Iron
say
nnd
Steel company's mills.
Tho work of removing the plant
to
Buffalo has been begun.
What was tho cnipenter shop of the
South mill has been torn down and
prepared for shipment to Buffalo. It
will be re-erected on the now site on
the shore of Lake Erie, to serve as a
temporary shelter for tho men engaged
In tho work of constructing the new
plant, or rather In rc-erectlng the old
plant, for It Is the Intention to move
from here not only the machinery but
also the buildings.
Eventually, with some alterations
nnd extensions, it will bo the carpenter
shop of the new plant.
The rest of tho company's proporlj
will follow as fast as conditions will
permit. From the present outlook it
will bo about eighteen months before
this moving Is accomplished.
Today tho North mill will resume
work, after an extended Idleness, to
help the South mill fill the present
contracts for rails. For some time past
the North mill has been operated al
most solely for the manufacture of
angle bars and special steel, tho South
mill having been enpable of caring for
all tho rail orders without any great
exertion. Tho desire to rush the work
on hand accounts for the North mill
being utilized for making rails. The
following advertisement Is significant:
NOTICE OF CHANGE.
The Lackawanna Iron and Steel Company:
Notice in heteby given that It Is the intention
of the Lackawanna Iron and Steel company to
apply to tho governor of the commonwealth for
an amendment to the charter ot the said cor
poration bv adding to article third thereof the
following propesition, to wit:
"Third Said corporation may nlso carry on
the manufacture ot iion or steel, or any other
part of its corporate business at or near the
city of IlulTalo, in the state ot New York, or in
any other place without this state which the
board of director may, from time to time, des
ignate for such purpose."
(hicned) Walter Scranton, President.
(Signed) .1. P. Higglnson, Secretary.
A meeting of tho stockholders will be
held at the company's offices In th's
city, Wednesday, to vote on the ques
tion of increasing the size of the boiinl
of directors.
The removal of the mills will taka
from Scranton several thousand ot her
people. There ate 1,500 men employed
at the South mill alone and fully as
many more at the North mill, furnaces
and other departments of the plant.
Most of them will go to Buffalo and
take their families with them. A rough
estimate of the number of Scrantonl
ans who will follow tho mill Is 3,500.
As an Instance of the lateral effect
the withdrawal of mills will have, It
might be mentioned that the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western company
last year handled over a million dol-
lats' worth of business for the stel
company. This was principally In
haulage of ore from Buffalo to Scran
ton and manufactured products from
Scianton to Buffalo.
DID NOT DO IT ALL.
And tho Lackawanna did not do nil
the hauling for the mills. A few years
ago, the steel company made a large
purchase of ore in tho West. The
Lackawanna road, which has a branch
and trestle Into the blast furnace,
was asked to give a price for carrying
the ore from Buffalo to Scranton. The
rate wis unsatisfactory end thii steel
company cast about for other means
of getting It here. After considerable
figuring, It was arranged to bring the
ore over the Lehigh Valley and Jersey
Centtal to South Scranton, transfer It
to ore cars nnd have It taken to the
blast furnace. An engine and .'ars had
to be specially purchased for making
this last leg of the trip, but the steel
company saved money.
It wai not, however, the fault of the
railroads that the mills are going to
Buffalo. The rates which the steel
company now has on the "Lackawanna
or the other roads are not complained
of. The loads simply can't make a
rate that will enable the steel com
pany compete with the Western mills.
Moat of Its ore now comes from the
Luke Suprlor regions and most ot the
manufactured product goes to the
West. The Carnegie company owns
its own line of boats on the lakes nnd
Its own railroad, the Rochester and
Pittsburg, which takes the ore from
the boats and deposits It at the
Homestead mills. The returning cars
carry the manufactured rails. Under
these conditions Is Is plainly evident
a mill located In Scranton nnd having
no Independent haulage con not suc
cessfully compete with the Western
mills.
Many South Skiers are fondly cling
ing to the story that W. W. Scranton
has Induced Henry C. Frlck to unite
with him In establishing a structural
Iron and steel rail mill In Scranton
to tnke the placo of the departing
rail mills
The story Is evidently the child of
the wish.

THE VERTICAL SYSTEM.
It Has Been Abandoned in the Now
York Schools.
The board of superintendents of
schools of Mnnhnttau and tho Bronx
havo decided that tho vertical system
of penmanship which has been In
vogue recently must be nbandoned.
After a trial of several years it has
been found impracticable, they say, to
retain the method because of its Inade
quacy for commercial purposes by stu
dents who seek business postlons, on
account of the lack of speed. A per
son who lenrns the vertlcnl hand must
necessarily write slowly, It Is claimed,
since to have tho print-like effect It
must bo done very neatly.
Vertlcnl writing Is ndmlttcd to be of
great advantage because of its legi
bility, but tho students who apply for
clcikshlps find themselves handicapped
by their Inability to do rapid work.
Tho vertical system has been In use
In Scranton for some time. Superin
tendent Howell who Interviewed yes
tcrdny regarding tho nctlon taken In
New York expressed grcnt surprise, as
he said tho vertlcalFHystcm hns been
found to bo admirable nnd Is almost
universally In use. Ho believes the de
cision In this ense to bo largely tho
result of political and tiersonnl preju
dice. Superintendent Howell says that
while tho system as applied In Scran
ton has never claimed precedence ns
to speed, an actual Investigation of tho
matter shows that OS per cent, of tele
graphers use the vertical hand nnd
they are considered the most rapid
writers on record. Tho method Is given
unanimous endorsement bv the great
educators and educational Journals of
tho country and Superintendent Howell
wns emphatic In his declaration that
the slanting hnnd will not be substi
tuted in the Scranton public schools.
TO BUY THEATRES.
Within a Week, A. J. Casey and P.
J. Casey Will Own the Lyceum
and Academy of Music.
Title In the Lvceum theatre and
Academy of Music properties will this
week pass to A. J. nnd P. J. Casey,
brewers and wholesale liquor dealers.
The Lyceum property Is owned by C.
H. Welles, E. B. Sturges, Alex. E.
Hunt and James Archbald. The Blair
estate owns the Academy of Music.
The price for the former Is said to bo
$85,000, nnd the latter ?50,000.
The lots on Penn avenue, ftontlng
the Lyceum, are Included In the deal,
and will be Improved at an early date.
The1 character of the building hns not
yet been decided upon, but It can be
taken for granted that it will be a sub
stantial and ornate addition to th
city's architecture.
For several years tho Lyceum prop
erty has been on tho market, and the
Blair estate, It is understood, has been
willing all along to dispose of the
Academy at a reasonable figure.
Litigation Is still pending over the
Lyceum, but It Is said that tho pro
posed purchasers are to be Indemnified
against any possible loss. The present
owners practically had tho property
forced upon them. While It wns In the
possession of Arthur Frothingham, It
was sold at sheriff's sale, and they
bought it in to protect largo claims
they held against It.
The lease on the Lyceum theatre ex
pires ono year from next August, and
that on the Academy will run out
April 1, next. Whether or not the pres
ent lessees, Burgundei & Itels, will
have the privilege of renewal Is a
matter that has not been taken up
yet.
DISLIKED THE CRITICISM.
George A. Conner Severed His Con
nection with Department.
Geonte A. Conner, engineer of the
Crystal Hope company, Saturday ten
dered his resignation to Mnyor Molr,
giving as his reason that the wholesale
criticisms of the fire department ot
lnte has stirred him up to such a
pitch that he wants to leave the de
partment. Mr. Conner has been a fireman for
over twenty years, and the company
loses an excellent, pnlntaklng engineer
by his resignation. Mnyor Molr was
unwilling to accept tho resignation,
but Conner was firm. Ho declared
his willingness, however, to continue
serving until a new engineer Is elected.
SEASON'S FIRST SNAKE STORY.
Unfortunately for Farmer Christmas
This One Is True.
Lewis Christmas, a farmer of Exeter
township, went out to lock the barn
at 10 o'clock Saturday night In his bare
feet and was bitten on the heel bv a
snake, which, with the light of a lan
tern, ho made out to be a copperhead.
He took some ordinary precautions
against blood poisoning and went to
bed. On awakening yesterday morn
ing he found his foot had begun to
swell.
Dr. Bevan, of PIttston, who Is at
tending him, has fears of serious con
sequences.
m
TWO YOUNG MEN BURNED.
They Were Cleaning a Boiler at the
Bellevuo Mine.
Martin Cummlngs, of SO" Hampton
street, William H. Dagger, jr., and his
younger brother, Harry, of Back
street, Bellevue, had a narrow escape
from serious Injury yesterday whtlo
cleaning out the boilers at the Bellevuo
breaker. The three weie flushing out
the boilers with cold water and had
Just about completed their task when
the steam was turned on, scalding
Cummlngs quite badly about tho face

boy escaped Injury.
Cummlngs wns taken to the Moses
Taylor hospital, where he was treated,
and tho attending physician stated last
evening that his Injuries are not seri

EVERHART LIKELY
TO ESCAPE TRIM
INDICATIONS THAT HE WILL
BE RELEASED.
Soroly Accused Youth Is Deeply
Penitent nnd Says If He Gets Out
of This Scrape He Intends to Go
West and Live a New Life He
Is to Bo Provided with a Bonds
man, It Is Said, in tho Course of
n Few Days Will That Was Made
by His Father.
Certain Indications, not far beneath
tho surface, make It a pretty safe
guess that the Everhart conspiracy
case will never go to trial. What these
are can not be printed at this time,
but If an announcement Is made In
tho course of a few days that young
E'orhnrt Is to bo released on ball and
sent away, It can bo accepted as re
liable. When seen at the jail by a Tribune
reporter, Saturday, Everhart declined
to talk, further than to mnke a simple
denial of his guilt and say that he
could get ball If he wanted It. This
statement has since been fairly well
corroborated.
As soon ns he fully recovers from
tho effect of the protracted debauch
which picceded his Imprisonment, It Is
understood, he will be provided with a
bondsman.
Ho appeared to be extremely peni
tent yesterday, and several times told
parties who visited him that If he got
out of this scrnpe ho would never got
Into nnothor. He proposes to go out
west, where he spent some time n few
years ago, go Into business and live a
new life.
WOULD NOT HELP HIM.
It now developes that If the alleged
conspiracy had been consummated It
would not have effected Its supposed
purpose. Everhart's father, realizing
that hli boy could not be relied upon
to make proper use of money, so
framed tho bequests of his will that
the son would receive from a trustee
only such allowances ns would be bare
ly sufficient for his support.
It Is nn Incident of note that young
Everhart Is the last of one line ot u
royal family, distinguished for cen
turies for bravery and nobility of
character. In fact, the founder of tho
family was named "Everhart tho
Noble." He was born March 15, 1265.
In Wurtemberg, and was a member of
the reigning family. At the age of
fifteen he conceived tho Idea of estab
lishing tho Independent kingdom of
Wurtemberg and, before attaining his
majority, carried out the idea and bo
came Its first king, with Stuttgart as
his capital.
ULRICH SUCCEEDED.
Ills youngest son, Ulrlch, succeeded
to the throne nnd he, in turn, wns suc
ceeded by Eborhard, or "Rushing
Beard," as he was called. Ulrlch II.,
the son of the last named ruler, In
curred his father's displeasure by pay
ing court to the daughter of a neigh
boring duke and while trying to regain
his father's favor by gallantry on the
field of Dofflnger.was killed by a knife
thrust In the back. Of this scene there
Is n largo picture In the Corcoran art
gallery at Washington.
The family treo was transplanted In
America In the early part of the
eighteenth centuiy. The Everharts
served with the patriot army during:
the revolution, and In the War of 1812,
and as has been stated, no braver man
went through the Civil war than the
father of the youth now In the county
Jail, tho principal In two of the great
est scandals the city has ever known.
DANIEL JENNINGS INJURED.
