The feud between the Itoos brothers coes jnore or less merrily on. Abo Hoos, the econd oldest brother, nnd proprietor of the lunch wagon which It Is alleged the younjjest brother, Leo, nped 18, attempted to blow up with dynamite, was made defendant In four more cases yesterday at the Instnnce of Leo. Alderman Kelly, of the Eighteenth ward, held the defendant In $1,000 ball to answer for conspiracy, criminal li bel, perjury and threats. A constable was on the way to the county Jail with the prisoner when a telephone message to Warden Simpson directed that when Itoos arrived he should forthwith be taken to the court house. Sergeant Fred M. Kohler, of Com pany F, Thirteenth regiment, of which Hoos Is n member, was appraised of the nriest and nt once took steps to prevent his comrade from going be hind the bars. Colonel Watres was Interested and he waited on Judge Archbald. The result was that Itoos secured his release, Sergeant Kohler qualifying as his bondsman. Judge Archbald reduced the ball to J300 after Attorney Frank E. Uoyle, consul for young Itoos, explained the circum stances of the case. Roos served with Company O. of the Eleventh Infantry In Cuba and Porto Rico, nnd Is now a corporal In the Thirteenth. Sergeant Kohler says he Is a. good soldier nnd that, as far as ho has been able, to learn, the boy Is bolng persecuted by his brothers. Roos was arrested on four different charges last week at the Instance of this same brother. Attempt to kill, larceny, threats nnd defrauding of wages were the allegations. He was held In ball on each charge. Itoos says his two brothers are con spiring to ruin him. He brought the younger brother to this country about two years ago and gave him employ ment. He claims he also contributed $20 to help bring his older brother's family to this country. This $20 was the first money he received from the government while he was fighting in Cuba. . ROCK JUNCTION COLLISION. Three Engines Badly Used Up on the Erie and Wyoming Valley Rail road Fireman Swingle Hurt. Tiy a head-on collision between two coal trains near Rock Junction, nbove Dunmore, on the Erie and Wyoming Valley railroad, early yesterday morn ing, Fireman Chailes Swingle was In jured and three locomotives were de railed and more or less damaged. An east bound coal train drawn by two engines and west bound train of empty cars drawn by a single engine were allowed to come into the same block through a miscalculation of the signal man. lie supposed the one train had cleared the block and signalled the other to come on. The first engine of the "double-header" had Just cut loose and was hurry ing ahead to make a flying switch when the train of empties, coming up grade, rounded the curve. Both engi neers reversed their levers and had the speed greatly slackened when the collision came. The loaded train, a few rods behind, could not be stopped before reaching the wreck and conse quently there was a second crash. All three engines suffered the almost total demolition of their tenders, but neither shock was sulllclent to seriously af fect the locomotives. The crews jumped and saved them selves, but Fireman Swingle was slow in getting off and, being thrown against the fire-box by the jolt, had his face painfully burned. In addition to this he unfortunately selected the embankment sldr of the track on which to Jump and suffered a fall of nearly thirty feet, which left him with severe cuts and bruises. The east bound train was drawn by engines Nos. 9 and 1, with Irwin Secor and Verne Tuttle as the respective en gineers. Michael Kelly was conduc tor. The west bound train was drawn by engine No. 32, with John Marshall at the throttle. William Townsend was conductor. Ivlttle or no delay to traffic was occa sioned. MINERS' MASS MEETING. Held in Vacant Lots on North Main Avenue. A large number of members of the local unions of the United Mine Work ers of America nssembled in the vacant lots opposite Clarke Brothers' stores, on North Main avenue, last evening, and for two hours listened to speeches by Organizers Fred Delcher and Ben jamin James. Their arguments were mainly along the line of the policy now being followed by the union. Incidentally the speakers took occa sion to ridicule the movement Inaugur ated on Monday evening to organize the Delaware, Lackawanna and West ern miners. They counselled the rvK-n not to identify themselves with i v organization other than the I'nl ed Mine Workers. MR. DIMMICK APPOINTED. Made a Director of the Pennsylvania Oral School. Governor W. A.

It Will Be in Charge of Captain John W. Kambeck Indications Are That the Coming Gathering of the Guard Will Be the Finest in the History of the National Guard ot the State. Will Be Over Ten Thousand Men Under Canvsvs Notables Who Will Review the Troops. Tho advance detail of tho Thirteenth regiment will leave tonight for Camp Hawkins, Mt. Gretna, to prepare tho camp for the regiment which will ar rive Saturday morning. The detail will be In charge of Captain John W. Kambeck and will consist of five men from each companj'. Assistant Sur geon George A. Illanchard will accom pany the detail. The indications nre that the coming division encampment nt Mt. Gretna will be the finest and most complete In the history of tho National Guard of this state. This will be the first summer encampment shico 1S97, nnd since thnt last assembling of the state troops for their regular division drill numerous changes have taken place. In 1831 the boys were called to Mt. Gretna, not for the purpose of mere routine drill, but for n more perlous business of preparing for actual war fare. The war with Spain hns had tho ef fect of making the National Guard of Pennsylvania a far more elllclent body than It ever was before, and It could be put In shape for active ser vice speedily, should the state be call ed upon again for volunteers. The total strength of the National Guard is now between 10,000 and 11,000 men. All the regiments are now organized on tho three-battalion formation, sim ilar to that of the regular army, and there would be no such difficulty as there was 1S9S In providing an extra battalion for each command. MAKE-UP OF REGIMENTS. The twelve companies of a regiment carry three commissioned officers and more than fifty men each, and all that would be necessary, should there be a war call again, would be to enroll men to meet the government quota of 100 men to a company. The state equipments have been made to conform very closely to those of the United States army and all the commands have the Improved pattern lo-callbro Springfield rllles, the next best ,arms to the government's Krag Jorgensens. The standard of marks manship has been Improved and tho commands nre now required to quali fy at least 7R per cent, of the mem bership at rifle practice. 11 Is estimated that there will be fully lO.fiOO men under canvas at Mt. Gretna during the encampment. The sites of the different brigades are de clared to be In excellent condition and will be located as follows: The First brigade, Brigadier General Schall commanding, will be located back of the hill and close to the state rllle range; Second brigade, Brigadier General Wiley commanding, will oc cupy the ground opposite Colebrook station, and tho Third brigade. Brig adier General Gobin commanding, will occupy the land nearest the Mt. Gret na park station. The cavalry and ar tillery will be located near the camps of the Second brigade and railroad. At the coming encampment It Is or dered that the three nrtlllerj- com mands shall be detached from their brigades and formed Into a provision al battalion. The four troops of cav nlrj', In a similar manner, shall go Into camp as a squadton. OPENS SATURDAY. The boys will go Into camp on Sat urday, Aug. 4, and the first two duys will be spent In putting things In or der, which Is not a light undertaking. On Monday following General Miles will pay them a visit and there will be u review. Governor Stone and his staff will be present nnd will remain all week. On Thursday there will be a divi sion review In honor of the governor, which will be the grandest turnout the guard ever had. Secretary of War Root and former Governors Pattlson, Beaer nnd Hastings will be present, and many people front all over tho state will attend. At Lewlstown In 1S97 there were 8,400 men on parade, but at Camp Hawkins there will be 10,500 men un der arms and In good marching or der. Out ot the entire guard there will be but one command to march to the camp, the Governor's Troop, which will leave Harilsburg on Sat utdav morning and will be In the camp about 4.30 In the afternoon. The Pennsylvania railroad, which will have charge of the transportation of the larger part of the National Guard to and from tho division en i aiiipment at Mt. Gretna, has made : is propatatlons for this wotk. The tiansportatlon will be on a much lar ger scale than ever before, as the guard Is considerably more numerous. The companj', however, has made complete arrangements for the occa sion and tho movement of the troops will be with the usual promptitude and lack of friction. NEW SIDINGS PUT IN. Thft railroad company has had a number of new sidings laid near the spot where the camp will be situated and the capacity for storing cars has thus been nearly doubled. This was made necessary from the fact that the guard has Increased In numbers and that facilities tit Mt. Gretna were never adequate for a division encamp ment. The company had a force of men at work for several weeks pre paring the encampment "j-ards" and now the track room Is In shape for the reception of all tho cars that can be possibly needed In moving the guardsmen to and from their place of a short period of practical soldiering. The movement of supplies to the camp Is now In progress. FORGOT HIS PROMISE. Dominick Sultz Will Have to Spend Twenty Days in Jail. Domlnlck Sultz Is a hoy of thirteen years, who has been In this country only a short time and talks very Im perfect English. A week ago he was arrested for Jumping on a Delaware, Lackawanna and Western train and was taken before Alderman Millar, where ho pleaded that he did not know he waB doing any harm, being Ignor ant of the laws and customs here. The alderman was so Impressed by the boy's manner that he discharged htm, after the youth had assured him In the most solemn manner that he would never Jump on a train again. To show his gratitude, he kissed the alderman's hand again nnd again. Yesterday this same Domlnlck Sultz was arrested on n Delaware, Lacka wanna nnd Western trnln at Clark's Summit by Detectives James Saul nnd Iko Seidman. When r'raigncd before the nlderman last night he was sent up for twenty days. AT MT. GRETNA. Arrangements Made to Insure Prompt Delivery of Tribune During tho enenmpment nt the Mt.

The same peculiar thief who en tered tho lcsldcnr" of I). J. Camp'l on Monday night got In some more of his fine work last night, when the residence of Thomns Sprague, nt fi?'i Qulncj avenue, was entered and thoroughly overhauled. Nothing, as far as could be learned was taken. Miss Grace Sprague was In the house at about 7.30 o'clock, nnd at that time nothing had been disturbed. She went out on the front veranda, where she remained visiting with a friend until 8.30 o'clock when she had occasion to go up stairs. Sho found every bedroom on the second floor tansacked. The bureau drawers were all opened and their contents sttewn about; closets were overhauled nnd the pockets of every article of male attire turned inside out, and as in the Campbell burglary, much valuable jewelty was left un disturbed, the thief being evidently bent on securing money and nothing else. There was no monej- In the house, however, where he could lnj his hands on it. A search showed that entrance had been effected by means of the but ler's pantry window. There was only a screen In this, and It had been pushed up. The silver table service, which was In the dining room, was undisturbed. Miss Sprague said she heard no noise, but that she noticed two stiange men enter the court be tweeen the residence iid that ot F. L. Cair, nbout S o'clock. Chief Robling and Detective Molr were notified and made nn Investiga tion of the premises. That tho resi dents of the city are becoming alarm ed at these repeated burglaries was manifested yesterday when several patties intending to leave the city re quested The Tribune not to mention the fret, fearing that their residences would bo visited during their absence. BELIEVE THE STORY. Local Lackawanna Officials Credit Story of New Route to Philadel phiaReasons Why They Do. Tomorrow, according to the stories sent out f i om New York and else where, Is the day on which tho Lack awanna Is to take charge of the oper ation of the Portland and Bangor road, but as yet no official notice of this has come to tho local officials. Such no tice, however, Is expected at an" time. The story that tho Lackawanna's purchase of the Portland and Bangor Is a preliminary step toward an inde pendent Lackawanna route to Phila delphia is generally credited about the company's offices In this city. "It is a plausible story," said one high official yesterday, "and I would not be surprised to see It corroborated before long. The North Penn Is con trolled by the Lackawanna people and it is only seven miles between the ter mini of the two roads. The men at the head of tho Lackawanna are the kind who will not hesitate to build a seven mile stietch of road to gain such an advantage as this independent and short route offers. It will be well to keep an eye on Lackawanna opera tions In Northampton county." At present tho Lackawanna reaches Philadelphia by the Behidere and Philadelphia division of the Pennsyl vania. It Is a single track road 'and taps no cities of any Importance that could not be served by the proposed new route. This, coupled with the fact that the latter route Is very much the shorter, makes the storj' a very prob able one.

Most of Those Who Entered the In fantry Branch of the Service Were Assigned to the Fifth and First Regiments Which Are Now Being Recruited Up to the Full Standard. Both of These Regiments Are Des tined for Active Service in the Philippines or China. Tho men who are being enlisted al most dally at tho United States army recruiting station on Wyoming ave nue nre In the majority of cases as signed to regiments which arc under ordcri for active service. These lcgl ments nre the Fifth Infnntr at Fort Sheridan, Illinois, and the First in fantry nt Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. One battalion of the Fifth hns been stationed at Fort Sheridan for some time, while another passed through this city n few days ago on its way from Cuba. Tho Fifth Is not under orders for services In China, but It Is the next thing to It. That Is, !t has been or dered to tne Philippines, but accom panying this order Is another direct ing that a stop be made at Nagasaki, Japan, for further orders. This Is taken to mean that the fur ther orders will be to proceed to China ncross the China sea. The First infantry Is under orders for service in the Philippines without nny stopovers on the way. The local recruiting officers report that a great manj men ccmo to the recruiting sta tion and say they will enlist If thoj can receive positive assurance that they will be sent to China. As this cannot be done many go away. Nevertheless the officers are more (ban pleased with their success In this city. Twentj'-one enlistments were received during July, which Is accounted a very good average. Since the station was established on April 1, seventy-seven men have been re ceived Into the army. The station will be continued here until October at any rate and perhaps longer. The regiments to which the "rook ies" are being sent have nearly the full quota of men In nil instnnces, there being perhaps nn average ot about ten men required to fill up each company to tho necessary war strength ot 12S men. The addition ot such a' small percentage of new men docs not therefore materlallj- affect the strength of the regiment and the mixing of the new recruits with so many veterans gives them a more than unusuallj' excellent chance to "catch on." The names ot tho men from this vicinity who enlisted during Julj', nnd where they were assigned, were at follows: THOSE WHO ENLISTED. Harry H.
