At the monthly meeting of the Mall carriers' association, which was held Sunday, a committee of three was jp. pointed to draw up resolutions of re gret at the resignation from his post of Perry C. Heath, first assistant post master general, Tho meeting was largely attended, and there was a uni versal feeling of regret, as Mr, Heath has always been the letter carriers' friend, and the gray-coated force rec ognizes the fact. The committee appointed consists of John H. Kelly, V. H. Lauer and Thomas Jon. ROBINSON AGAIN ARRESTED. Irresprcssablo Owner of Carousel Onco More In the Tolls. James L. Hoblnson, wlio runs a mer-ry-fio-rotind near Nny Aug park, was arrested for tlio third time yesterday on the charge of desecrating the Sab bnth by bavins hla carousel In full blast on Sunday nnd making the day hideous by the loud strains of topical nlrs discoursed from the merry-go-round. This Is the third time Hobln son was arraigned before the mayor on this same charge, citizens residing In tho vicinity making the complaint. Judgment was given against him on both occasions, but tho last time he took nn appeal and ho evidently con sidered that this rendered him proof against further arrest, for Sunday thp same old airs wero loudly and gaily played. Mounted Officer Dloch served the warrant yesterday afternoon and a hearing was set for -1.30 o'clock In po lice court. Tho hour arrived and the mayor, Indignant citterns, officers, et til., wero all present, but Hoblnson did not nppear, being unable to attend. A further hearing was accordingly set for It o'clock Wednesday morning. MAYOR IS TO BE GIVEN FULL SWING Men's Union Anxious to Have Him Demonstrate What Can Be Done with Speakeasy Ordinance. Mayor Molr Is girding his loins dally and gathering his cohorts for the on coming battle with tho speakeasies, nnd It will not bo many days before the glove will be cast down In earnest. Ills honor yesterday remarked to a Tribune man: "Wo are dally gathering evidence against various of tho unlicensed places and before long something Is going to bo done. AVo are trying to avoid tho mistake that has been made of arresting licensed dealers and havo applied to the clerk of tho courts for a certified list of all the licensed pa loon keepers. Wo expect this com pleted list at nny moment now. We are busily gaining Information and evidence, and In n short time every thing will be ready to begin work." The officers of the Men's union have decided to avoid nny semblance of trying to steal the mayor's thunder, and will, for a time nt least, five him and his tippling hom.s ordinance full swing. If, however th3 results nre not such as the circumstances warrant, the union's representative will take a band at prosecuting under tho new ordinance. Attorney Fred E, B'jers stated to a Tribune man that the agents ot, the union have a long list of notorious speakeasies that the mayor will bo furnished with In cisa his officers' evidence nn Inability to locate them. As It Is only necessary to show that liquor Is kept for tho evident pur pose of offering It for sale to secure a conviction, the mayor and police, tho Men's union believes, ought to have little or no trouble In plugging up every hole-ln-tha vull in tho city. "The police officers know where these places are," said Mr. Beers, ' ami tho keepers ot those places know that tho officers know all about them. Just let the officers go to thes? places and In an earnest manner, notify tho pro prietors that they must unit or bo raided, and you will find that n ma jority of them will quit. The others can be made to quit by arresting them. To my way of thinking, thero will not bo need of any great number of arrests if the mayor and police go at this thing In a determined way. "Tho mayor has declared that ho will clean out the speakeasies If It 13 possible. It has been found posslblo In other cities. Tomorrow, when the new ordinance becomes operative, will mark the beginning of a period when the mavor will bo the cynosure of every eye that looks to a moral re generating of Seranton."

Doctors Not Only Hope to Save Sklv ington's Life, but Also His Injured Leg Miss Haefey Taken to tho Homo of a Friend Estimate of the Damage and How the Losses Are Proportioned Merchants' nnd Me chanics' Bank Resumes Business. Valuables Found in tho Debris. Attorney Loughran's Experience. All of tho twenty-seven persons In jured In Saturday night's explosion nre Improving nicely, and It Is now as good as certain that no fatalities will be charged up to the thrilling acci dent. 11. AV. Sklvtngtnn, whose leg was cut by flying glass, and who, on account of loss of blood and the stoppage ot circulation In tho injured limb, was considered the most serious of the vic tims, was much Improved yesterday, nnd the hospital physicians hope to save his life without resorting to tho nmputatlon of his leg. Miss Haefey and Mrs. Ward were vouterday re moved from the hospital to the homo of their friend, Mrs. McN'iilly, on Kirch street. No one who might have been caught In tho wreck has been reported miss ing, nnd the expectation of finding bodies in the wreckage Is no longer considered a probability. Tho monetary losses, according to the latest estimates will not exceed $75,000. Miss llnfey Is probably the heaviest loser of all. She had a life Interest In the homo and furniture of the late Judge Hundley and this In terest had a property value of fully $.23,000, It Is said. Tho house furnish ings wore luxurious nnd some ot the paintings, especially, were of great value. The bank lost practically nothing. Kverythlng of value except the furni ture and lixtures was looked In the vault or safe, and tho furniture ana fixtures bud been In use so long that they were not being carried on the In ventory at mote than they could be expected to bring at n second-hand store. Tho bank building could be replaced for about $lo,000. The Ulalr building, so Mr, I.Inen says, could be rebuilt for $10,000. It was valued nt $15,000. The I.orenz drug store building, owned by the L,obeck estate of Tunkhannock, will require about $2,000 worth of re pairs, and the Andrew Campbell build ing about $1,000 worth. The plate glass losses will foot up to about $1,000. DRUGGIST LOUKNZ' LOSS. Druggist I.orenz suffered a loss of about $1,000 worth of stock by tho top pling over of n big case filled with bottles ot prescription stuffs. The wall behind It convexed Just enough to throw the case on such n slant as to send the bottles shooting through tho class doors to the lloor or on top of the counter showcase. Mr. I.orenz Is preparing to move out anil expects to be doing business nt a new stand to morrow. Ho had not secured quar ters yesterday. Luther I). Taylor, manager of the P. I. Phillips' estnte furniture store, places the loss to tho furniture stock at $7,C00 or $S,000. The total stock was valued at $10,000, and what little of it was saved by being In the extreme rear of basement and store was of the cheapest character. The papers which wore kept In tho vault In tho office of the Ilandley es tate were not of a valuable nature. The Important papers nre kept in a safe in tho Lackawanna Trust nnd Safe Deposit company's vault. John T. Richards, the executor who has act ive charge of the estate, was In Mon treal Saturday and was apprised of tho explosion by telegraph. He is ex pected to be hero today. The Seranton Carpet company.whlcli occupied the second and fourth floors, was spared very little of Its $15,000 stock. II, D. Morse, Edward Connor, John Owens and Samuel AVUcox, who compose the firm, were at work yes terday with a gang ot men rescuing such of the goods ns were In the rear of tho building and escaped damage. Both tho furniture and carpet stores will reopen for business at once In tho small stores on AVyomlng avenue, oc cupying the old site of the Young Men's Christian association building. Mrs. Phillips proportionately is by far the heaviest loser, as she had her all invested in this business. A legacy from her foster father and tho Insur ance on her lato husband's life, which practically constituted all her worldly possessions aside from her home, were Invested In tho store. A fair estimate of tho losses would be as follows: ESTIMATED LOSSES.

Courses, the baby a bath when the wreck oc curred. The rings nro in tho debris. The workmen engaged In removing tho wreckage recovered Mrs. Loughran's sealskin coat and her pocket-book, containing n smnll sunt of money nnd two diamond ear rings, Tho coat was sewed up In n pillow case and found to bo uninjured. Tho work of removing tho debris was continued yesterday without Inci dent, save as noted above. What was onco a piano, but now it moss of splin tered wood, tangled wire and broken Ivory, was unearthed during tho morn ing and cast on the scrap heap. It had been In tho Haefey apartments. Urokcn furniture nnd torn curpets nnd tupes trles wero occasionally dug out of the debris and given over to tho draymen with the rest of the wreckage. Not a single piece of furniture so far brought out is anything more than wreckage. Opinions continue to pour In as to Just how It all occurred, but none of the reasonable ones vary materially from tho generally accepted theory, that u gas explosion In the cellar blow down tho foundation ot the party wall, allowed the superstructure to drop nntl caused tho two buildings to collapse, That tho collapse was so complete Is accounted for by the fact that the lower part of tho wall was only two bricks thick, while the upper part was of three bricks thickness. DANK RESUMES BUSINESS. At promptly 9 o'clock yesterday morning the Merchants' nnd Mechan ics' bank opened for business In tho temporary headquarters formerly oc cupied by John and J. J. Jermyn, 111 AVyomlng avenue, who havo placed their entire suite of offices at tho dis posal of the bank. Tho building was originally erected for banking purposes nnd contains one of the largest nnd strongest vaults In tho city. Tho floor now occupied bv the Mer chants' and Mechanics' bank Is fitted with bank furniture nnd accessories throughout. In consequence of which little, if nny, Inconvenience Is being felt In carrying on the business. The vault nnd safe In the collapsed building were opened Sunday and found lntnct. All tho cash, books, pa pers, etc, wero moved to the Wyoming avenue temporary quarters nnd by dil igent and faithful work by the em ployes, assisted by tho directors, things were so shaped that the bank opened on time yesterday morning. President J. J. AA'lUIams, when In terviewed by a Tribune man yesterday afternoon, was In nn exceedingly pleasnnt mood, being greatly pleased with the fact that tho change had not affected the bank's business one lota. In fact, tho deposits yesterday were larger than on the Monday previous, while the withdrawals were somewhat lighter. The latter was especially true In the savings department. AVhen asked regarding the bank's plans for a permanent location, Mr. AA'lUIams said that, while none had been formulated as yet. tho directors bad several sites under consideration, tho ultimate outcome of which would probably be another handsome bank structure for Seranton. Contrary to general belief, the more valuable papers, such as bonds, securi ties, etc., were not in the bank build ing nt tho time of tho explosion, such papers being kept In the vaults of the Lackawanna Trust and Safe Deposit company. MAY REBUILD AT ONCE. J. A. Linen, president of the First National bank, who represents the Ulair estate, said yesterday that It the lot cannot be sold at once tho estate will proceed to rebuild. Tho rear part of the building for n distance of twenty-five feet is intact and liulldlng In spector Jackson believes It can bo safely Incorporated In tho now build ing. Tho fact that the bank building was shorter than the Ulalr building accounts for the escape ot the rear portion of the latter. AVhen asked if tho losers Intended to make a light for tho Insurance, Mr. Linen said ho did not know but what they would, but as yet tho matter had not been ennvnssed. It Is not Im probable, he said, that the Rlalr estate and the occupants of tho Ulalr build ing would make a claim for damages against the Ilandley estate If It de velops that tho accident was due to negligence. Attorney P, F. Loughran, who was at Jit. Gretna with tho Thirteenth regiment, did not hear of tho terrible experience which his family under went, until 10 o'clock Sunday morning. A telegram was sent lilm at 9 o'clock Saturday night, but It was not deliv ered to htm. Tho first Intimation ho had of the explosion came to him from heating a group discussing n re port that ten persons had been killed by nn explosion In the Merchants' and Mechanics' bank. The Philadelphia papers cumo Into camp soon after this, and he learned the true story. Colonel AVatres granted him a fur lough, and he started for home. lie was variously advised as to which was tho quickest way to reach Seranton on Sunday, and finally chose to try the Hanisburg route. Arriving there ho was pained to learn that no train would lenvo Scrantonward till lato at night. Ho managed, however, to got to Sunbury on n through train early In the evening, but he might as well havo stayed In Harrlsburg, as there was no train to AA'Ilkes-Carre before the one that started from Harrlsburg, 'TWAS ALL IN VAIN. Thero was a freight train golnr; through, however, nnd nfter some ef fort ho secured permission to ride on It, The freight came along, but It was a fast freight and way behind time, and did not stop In the Sunbury yard, as was Its wont. After It had rushed past and Mr. Loughran made known his dllomma to somo switchmen, ho was told that the freight would stop for twenty minutes at tho freight switches half a mile up tho yard. He ran tho wholo distance ns fust ns he could In the dark, and arrived at the freight switches Just In time to see tho fast freight steaming away. A coal train camo along, and In sheer desperation he boarded It. Tho crow said It would get to Nantlcoko In tlmo to catch a lato trolley car to AVIlkes Uarre. At Nescopeck tho coal traVn was sidetracked, and the conductor told Mr. Loughrnn that they were likely to be held up there for a long time. Mr. Loughran went across the river to tho Ilerwlck side, taking chances on catching a train of somo kind on tho Uloom division of tho Lackawannu. There was no train to catch until the regular passenger In the morning, and tho anxious nnd tired man had to content himself to sit on tho depot platform till the passenger train came. Ho reached Seranton nt 10 o'clock yesterday morning, and was a very happy man to find that he haa sustained no greater loss than his household goods, clothes and tho like. Steam Heating and Plumbing.

INSURANCE BILLS WERE ALL HELD UP HAS THE CITY TOO MUCH PRO TECTION AGAINST FIREP Members of Auditing Committee in tho Most Unqualified Manner Say There Is No Necessity for Insur ing Fire Apparatus, Street Clean ing Appliances and the Like Spe cial Commltteo Has Been Appoint ed to Inquire Into the Matter. Statements Made by Mr. Oliver. Insurance bills caused a good deal of lively discussion nt laBt night's meet ing of tho auditing committee. Mayqr James Molr's name was fre quently used during tho discussion, and not In a very complimentary way. Ho was censured for the manne"? In which tho city Insurance Is placed. "It's a soak, that's what this Insur ance business Is," snld C. E. Chitten den, the chairman of tho Joint audit ing committee. "It's nn outrage, and there's no doubt about that," said Joseph Oliver, of the auditing commltteo nnd also a mem ber of a special commltteo appointed to Investigate tho insurance matter. "This thing of Insuring the city hall,' which Is practically fireproof, for al most its full value, Insuring fire ap paratus and the hose, etc., used to clean tho streets Is all, all wrong, and something ought to be done about It." AA'hat tho committee did was to ad journ Without passing nny of the In surance bills. The city Insurance Is placed by a board consisting of tho mayor and chairmen of select and common coun cil. COMMITTEE NAMED. Sometime ngo Select Councilman AV. M. Finn called attention to the fact that the city was carrying altogether too much Insurance, and a committee consisting ot Mr. Finn, Select Coun cilman Joseph Oliver and Common Councilman Fred Phillips was ap pointed to Investigate the matter. "Mr. Finn has never been around once to meet with us In this matter," said Mr. Oliver last night. "What report has the committee to make?" queried Chairman Chittenden. "Can you enlighten us on that, Mr. Oliver?" "I can't glvo you tho report, Mr. Phillips has It." "That's the reason Fred Is not here tonight," quietly remarked Select Councilman John J. Schneider, who Is Mr. Phillips' colleague from the Elev enth. Mr. Oliver then went on to explain that tho chairmen of councils told him that they protested against tho plnclng of such a large amount of Insurance, but that tho mayor Ignored their wishes In the matter. "I suppose we will bo compelled to say these bills, but there ought to be some way of preventing a repetition of this kind of work. AVo don't need anything like the amount of Insurance we are now carrying." REFORM NEEDED. "We'll havo to pass nn ordinance making some different kind of an ar rangement about this insurance busi ness," said Mr. Chittenden. "That will bo the best way to attend to this dif ficulty." This suggestion met with the ap proval of Select Councilman J. J. Cos tello and was also approved by Mr Oliver. It is probable that somo legislation looking to a reform In the matter of Insurance will shortly be Introduced In council. Mr. Oliver had somo difficulty In holding back his temper on this in surance matter. After tho discussion was drawing to a close, he blurted out; "This Idea of Insuring apparatus In fire houses Is not right. AVo have at least one permanent man In every house In the city and It would be strange If they were not able to get out tho apparatus In case tho build ings should be attacked by fire." The commltteo adjourned without passing any of the bills, which means that It Is the desire of the members to glvo the special committee time to re port. A largo number of other Mils were approved by the committee. A number of them were for work done at Nay Aug park, OVERCOME BY THE HEAT. James Black Prostrated on Lacka wanna Avenue.
