Mndo Until 10.04, Owlnp to Lack
of Wagons Goneial Gobln and
Colonel Watres Both Complimented
Men and Officers on Their Splendid
Conduct and Showing Special He
turns of the Big Fight.
The members ot the Thirteenth roRl
ment, lironzo-fac ed. dusty and tired,
arrived homo Saturday cvtnlnu at
7.30 o'clock, after a nine hour's Jour
ney In si closely packed tialn of mncn
ten cars, with the thermometer close
to the century marls.
Reveille win sounded on Saturday
morning promptly at I o'clock, find
from that time until r SO when the

with a cinsh and tumble went eety
tent simultaneously. It w.is a slj;ht
ohr to be lemi mlnTcd, this destruc
tion of the whltctoppd little city In
a second.
NOT I3NOITOII OF WACSONS.
Tho dllllculty In not KcttlnK away
sooner was caused by the euthelv ln
MMlicient number of w.iroiis allowed
the reslment. Ten waRons woe all
that weic obtainable to iarr the lejtl-
ment's tents nccoutienientH and Ii.ik
jingo to the tialn. It was thought at
(list that the canvas would only neid
to bo taken down nnd l oiled tip and
that the state arsenal nuthoiitlis
would icmove It fiom the c.inip
Kiounds. A late ordei, lioocr. an
nounced that no lijrlnient would be
allowed to leae until It had supei in
tended the work of t.ikliiK all canas
to th" w.iltinK fielKht ens In the uar
of the camp.
It was aftei 3 o'clock bcfoie cciy
thliui had been cleat ed away and then
the lCKlment was foinied on the par
ade Kround in flout of biluade lie.ul
illiiiijets. (iinei.1,1 iJobln and his
staff walked down fiom hcachiuaiters
and look up a position In fiont of the
letlliiiciit. Colonel "Wntits then step
peil foiwatd and made a In let illi
cit rw to the men In which he stated
tint he was undei posonal ohllRatloas
to them all for their excellent con
duct and faithfulness to dut. TIo
also paid a hliili compliment to Cap
tain K.imbeck, foi his wmk in ehiilKO
ot the ndwineo ku.iiiI.
Cicneinl Oobln thoi came forward,
and when the iheets which his pies
etice elicited, had cit-cI. stated tint
he was pioud of tbr ollhcis and men
of the Thlrteoith, with all the eainist
ncss of his natuie lie nfeiied to tho
lact that not a single case of dls
oulellv (onduit had been lepoited to
him, and then s.ild "As citizen sol
dieis of the best bilf?ade in tho United
States jou hae distinguished oui
seHes, and I wish to thank jou for
It. I hope when ou teturn home you
will find ovoij thliifr happy and plens-
nnt. Oood-be."
Colonel "Wit ties called for three
cheers for tho Keneral and they were
Khcii with a will. A moment after
wards at tho call ot Major TiobllnK,
tho renlment ji.ue three cheeis for
Colonel Watres. The bos then passed
by General Gobln In review and
marched down to Mt Gietna station
nnd took their places In the special
train there nwaltinu.
iioiinwAnn trip.
Tho stait was made at just 10 51
o'clock and the Journey was unevent
ful. Allentown was reached at exact
ly 3 o'colck and a stop was made to
enable Company I, of Kaston, and Jla
Jor rield, the Jolly maym of that cltv,
to change cats. The members of the
bind formed themselves on the sta
tion platform and played "Auld Lang
Syne" as tho Kaston boys got off the
tialn. A few moments later tho big
train started again and as each car
passed Company I, the membeis of tho
latter were loudly cheeied.
Tho Journey from Allentown to
Kcranton was especially tedious and
the lights of tho "Klectrlc City" didn't
loom lato view until 7.15. Quito a
crowd was assembled at the Delaware
and Hudson station when tho train
drew In and numerous greetings wero
exchanged. Tho eight city companies
formed In company front and matched
thiough tho ptlnclpal streets of the
city to tho armory, wheio they weie
dismissed Company G, of Monti ose,
laid over at tho Lackawanna sta
tion and took tho next tialn noith
while Company 1J, of HonoFtlnlP, took
n special car at 8 o'clock for their
home city.
Colonel "Watres stated to a Tilbuno
man on tho train coming homo thnt
tho camp had been altogether the most
successful ho had ccr nttended. Ho
commented especially upon the fact
that not a slnglo Intoxicated man had
been noted In the ranks of thc4cgl
ment and ho said that this fact aloin
showed tho character of tho men In
tho command.
Major Ttank Holding, of tho Third
battalion, and this city's chief of po
lice, has an enlablo record as a prac
tical Joker, but never did he oilglnato
nnd successfully cairy out such a huso
Joko as ho did In camp last Friday
night. The papeis had been full for
several days of advance ai tides on
tho big ritzslmmons-ltuhlln fight and
tho majority of the men weie taking
the keenest Interest In it, so that when
it was announced In the early evening
that special dispatches, giving tho re
sult of tho mill round by round, would,
through thp couitesy of Major Hob
ling, bo iccelvcd In front of his tent.
It was small wonder that tho boyi
wero pleased.
I'liIU'Altnn ON THE SPOT.
Of course, they didn't know that
"fcpeclal dispatches" had been al
ready prepared In tho afternoon by
John M. McCourt, ouo of tho news
paper men, who had written them on
telegraphic blanks. There wero four
dispatches nil together nnd these wero
placed In the bands of confederates
und Bent way down tho field near
division headquarters.
Tho crowd began gathering shortly
after 9 o'clock nnd whn ono of the
Confederates dashed madly up a lit
tle after 0 30, with tho first dispatch,
there were several hundred persona
In front of tho major's lent. His ad
jutant, Lieutenant David J. Davis,
mounted n box and read tho first dis
patch while bieathless silence reigned.
It told among othei things that "Fltz
slmtnons ciawled through the ropes ut
ii.lC'4, attired in a pink bathrobo and
black skull cap." Tho other dis
patches ai rived at Intervals of ten
minutes nnd told ot tho fight tound
bv round.
According to them, Fltrsimmons had
cleat ly the best of It in the first three
lotinds nfter which lluhlln took it
linud. The last dispatch announced
thnt in the fifth round lluhlln lloored
ritrslmmons after about two minutes
of fighting, nnd that the Cornlshman
failed to arise until after ten seconds
hnd been counted.
Then did tho followers of lluhlln
set up n mighty howl and money
which hnd been bet In tho early (part
of the night changed hands. Three
cheers fot Major Holding weie pro
josed and given with a will and tho
crowd dispel sed to talk all night
about the fight so g!orlouly described
by Mr. McCourt.
"ritrslmmons1 Fltzslmmons"'
claimed ".llmtnle" Hnrtnett, ot
band, "why Huhlln could lick
Fltzslmmons e er dnv of his
ex-

llf.
He's tho greatest fighter In the bust
lies In those early rounds jou could
easily se how he was holding btck."
"Jlmml"," nnd a big number of
others, wre pretty thoroughly para
lyzed In the morning when they read
the big headlines In the papers ,tn
notineitig that ntslmmons had
knocked out l'uhlln In t'.e sixth lound

Coal and Iron company nt Avoca will

soon as all necessaiy repahs have

two months, work will be again re

closed down thiee years ago last May,
the company not requiring the coil
fiom It at that time. The locomotives,
mules nnd cars were all taken away
then, bo that the work of putting the
colliery In shape can not be done In a

The reopening of tho collleiy means

Review of Iron Market.
Tho August uport of tho blast fur
naces shows a decided falling off in
production. The weekly capacity of
tlie actlvo furnaces Is 38,000 tons bp
low that of July 1, nnd Is 21,000 tons
less than that lepoited a year ago.
The unsold stocks do not show any
considerable Increase. Tho furnaces
that have dropped out nro pretty well
) scattered, no ono dish let show Ins a
marked change,
At a meeting of tho nesscmcr asso
ciation In Cloveland on Monday It was
agreed that all the furnaces produc
ing Bessemer pig should go out of
blast on September 1, "with tho excep-
lion of tho furnaco of tho Hrlor Hill
Iron nnd Coal company and that of
the Andrews-Hitchcock company nt
Youngstown. Ono of these will run on
contincts und tho other will produce
foundry Iron. How long tho proposed
stoppage should last was not decided.
Tho finished material markets con
tinue to show much uncertainty, and
many look for cheap competition for
new contracts, with coi responding cut
ting of prices. On tho whole, prices
for finished products have fallen more
In pioportlon than those of pig Iron
and steel billets. This Is npt to bo the
case, nnd Is largely due to tho big com
panies which make their own pig and
do not have to buy It. Unglnecilng

A collection of Sheets aud Pillow Cases as large as this must in the very nature of

enjoy our capacity for quantity. The cheapness here is real, obvious and great.

Think that the Bicycle Season Is over,
for the best riding of the season is to come.
But we have more wheels in stock at present
that we have room for, on account of our fall
stock coming in. Therefore, we are making
a great reduction in prices. Now is the time
to get a good wheel very cheap.
