MINE WORKERS MEET.
Tho Quarterly Convention Held at
Plttston.
Special to the Suninton Tribune.
1'lttst-on, July 10. Two sessions of
the quarterly meeting of tho United
Mine Workers of the First district was
held today. Tho business being trans
acted behind tightly closed doors, It
was next to Impossible to obtain au
thentic Information In icgard to the
proceedings. At the morning session
the committee on by-laws reported sev
eral amendments, the nature ot which
are a secret with the delegates. Sev
eral resolutions were also adopted, ono
of which was as follows:
"Whereas, The Hrewery Workers'
union Is trying to enforce a boycott
against tho Hrewery Trust of Pennsyl
vania, be It
"Resolved, That the United Mlno
Workers, in Dlstilct assembly, will do
all in our power to support them In
tho light on the right to organize, and
will not use any scab beer or other
scab product."
In accordance with the sentiment of
the resolution, tho first Inquiry of
thirsty delegates upon entering a
saloon was, "Have you union beer on
tap?" If the reply was In the nega
tive, they Immediately left the place.
The afternoon session lasted fiom 1.30
till 7 o'clock, with no recess. No very
Important decisions were nrrlved at
and definite action on the main ques
tions was postponed until the Joint con
ference of the United Mine Workeis of
District No. 1, of Wyoming nnd Lack
awanna valleys; District No. 7, of
Hazleton and vicinity, nnd District No.

Schlosser, Dtiryea. The next quarterly
convention of the district will be held
In Kdwardsvllle, dui Ing October. Tho
convention adjourned about 7 o'clock.
LAUER IN THE FIGHT.
Politics in the Eighth District Still
Unsettled.
Special to tlie Seianton Tribune.
Stroudsbuig. Pa., July 10. The an
nouncement made recently In a Demo
cratic; newspaper that John E. l.auer,
of Carbon county, bad withdrawn from
the congressional light in the Eighth
district In the Interest of harmonv Is
untrue. Democratic bainiony appears
to be far off.
A letter received by a prominent
Democrat from John E. Laui'r, who is
opposing Congri'ssmnn Lainl H. Har
ber for re-election, says nuthlng of the
gentleman's it-ported withdrawal from
the fight In Carbon. lUrbur wants to
be returned to congress and Is meeting
with strong opposition from bis coun
ty. Carbon.
Well Informed politicians claim that
with both Lauer and Barber In the
field, the chances are stronglj in faor
of tho former. Pike county wants the
nomination badly this year, and two of
her best known citizens are after the
conferees from that county The tight
is believed to be close between Edwin
V. Peters, of Husbklll. nnd ex-Congressman
Joseph J. Hart, of Mllford.
Hart served one term in congress and
for a number of years was owner nnd
editor of the Mllford Despatch, the
organ of Pike county Democracv. In
Monroe county the light Is between ex
Senator Joseph H. Shull and Hon. M.
R Coolbaugh. The position of ex-Congressman
Hnwnrd Mutchler In the
fight, makes the situation very doubt
ful. Up to this present time that gen
tleman Is not an avowed candidate and
his preference is unknown. For years
Northampton has controlled the nom
ination and Monroe countv has been
shut out. This has created some bit
ter feeting among the Democratic lead
ers here.
ELECTRICITY IN MONROE.
Considerable Damage Is Done by
Lightning.
Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Stroudsburg, July 10. Hepbrts from
country tllstilcts indicate that Sntur
dav's electrical storm did considerable
d-.image. Roads were badly washed by

neighbor's porch nnd saw bis home
struck. Ho rusheel over nnd found tlbi
kitchen ablaze. The loss by fire Is not
heavy, but the house la badly damaged.
A boot In the kitchen had tho toe por
tion cut off clean.
The house owned by Thomas Hroil
head, at Water Gap. was struck. The
bolt struck the chimney, tearing It all
to pieces, ami then went right through
the house, tenting oft the plaster In
bedrooms, dining nnd sitting rooms.
Mr. Rrodhead's two children and
Reuben Staples were In tho sitting
room nnd were slightly stunned. Tha
house of Mts. Henjamln Tock was

seriously burned by an explosion of gas

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.
New Yotk, July 10. The stock mar
ket was i other dull today, but com
pared with yesterday's seml-stagna-tlon
It hnd nn appearance of consider
able anlmntlon. The large Increase In
tho prices of stocks which resulted
from the comparatively small dealings
are a striking evidence of the smalt
limiting Btipply of stocks now of good
nuukt't. Tlie opening dealings were nn
an exttcniely small scale, but the mar
ket gained sttength and volume u3
tho day ptogiessed. The railroad stocks
were especially weak, but the Indus
trials and specialties had their full
shnro In the strength. The list of se
cut Hies dealt In showed a considerable
lengthening civet that for some time
pnst. A number of factors co-operated
to cause the advance in prices. The
resistance offered yesterday In face of
the violent decline and heavy lhiuld-
r.tlon in Urooklyn Ttanslt was In Itself
n, motive for advnnclng pilc.es on the
part of the professional ttaders, whose
constant aim is to see prices move,
and who only need to seo the Impossi
bility demonstrated of a movement in
one direction to start a movement in
another direction. The cohvlctlon that
the monthly ctop report would show
a. material Improvement in the condi
tions, not only in the spring wheat belt
but In those portions of the winter
wheat belt which had suffcied Irom
too much rain, played a large patt In
the day's advance nnd huge shoit
lines were covered In the stocks of al'
the grnln-eiirryiiig roads. Tho vocifer
ous alui m over the corn crop, professe 1
by some of the crop experts, was evi
dently viewed with scepticism by Wall
street and the corn-carrying grangers
shared In the general strength. The
widely disseminated reports of an open
competition between the great ste-l
companies was a subject of rather
quizzical Indifference on the part of
professional operators, as was testified
to by the late general advance In tho
steel stocks. Total sales, 3O,,C00.
The bond market was slightly mote
alive than yesterday, but was Irregu
lar. Sales, par value, $909,000.
