Remarkable Growth of the Business of Connolly & Wallace. Eight years ago Thursday the Ann of Connolly & Wallace came Into ex istence. From the beginning this store was known as u most reliable dry goods establishment, always possess ing the confidence of the public. Year by year the business grow, and today the Ann of Connolly & Wallace occu pies a strong position In the front rank of the retail dry goods concerns of Pennsylvania, Upon entering this niagnlllcent es tablishment a person Is Immediately impressed with Its beauty and busi nesslike appearance. One of the most striking and attractive features of this store is the unique and artistic show window displays, which rttract gieat attention, At present the windows are most beautifully dressed In commem oration of the stores' eigbth anniver sary. In the lower window is displayed the season's best of French llannel and French llannel waists. A beautiful model, handsomely draped, is used to good advantage, together with n unique background of card grill work, in the upper window Is a most artistic display of ladles' suits, coats and furs. Handsomely illustrated cards, together with several large cut card tlgures, add wonderfully to the general effect of this window. The window dressing and store dec orations throughout, us well as the card grill and poster work. Is done by C. "W. Hurlbut, the firm's window dresser and decorator, who, though a young man, is one of the best men In his line In the country. To praise Mr. Hurlbut hero would be superlluous. His work speaks for itself. UNEARTHED A CORPSE. Body of Child Found in Field at Jes sup Was Regularly Interred. Coroner Roberts went to Jessup yes terday to learn the details In the case of tho child found dead in an open field In that town on Thursday. A Jury was empaneled nnd an autopsy made. In which the death was found to nave ueen natural. The facts brought out In the lnqust wero that boys were hunting in th field with dogs, and the latter unearth ed tho box containing the child's re mains.

ANOTHER DAY DEVOID OF EXCITEMENT Concluded from Page 1. ment of the conditions In the lower regions, contained in a special to The Tribune from Hazloton, and reports from their ofllcers of the closing of MarUle & Co.'s mines at Jeddo and the Mocnnaqua colliery at Shlckshlnny were the causes of this. The latter re liable advices to the effect that the Marklo & Co. collieries were nt work as usual had a depressing effect nnd tended to cause the men to place more reliance on the reports that came from other than what they have been wont to consider official sources. The three trusted men dispatched by West Side miners to Investigate the conditions in Hazloton and Pottsvllie, Independent of the union olllcers, have returned and their report Is expected to be heard today. Eight wnshcries in Lackawanna county nnd two Just over the line In rittston, and two insignificant drifts In the vicinity of Carbondale, are the only collieries In the whole Lackawanna-Wyoming region now In opera tion. Less than 300 men are employed at nil twelve workings, so that In this district alone thcro arc over 75,000 men on strike. All Aro Not Idle. All these, however, are not Idle. Many miners have secured work at harvesting in the nearby rural dis tricts, and others aro scattered about making repairs and assisting In gard ening at private residences in the city and suburbs. Hundreds have gone to the soft coal regions, and largo squads are dally leaving for the west. If Scranton's census was taken now, it Is safo to say, It would fall far short of the necessary 100,000 to make it a sec ond class city. Tbo executive board of District No. 1 was to have met yesterday to on sldor the Gibbons Coal company's proposition, but the absence of Presi dent Nichols nnd Secretary Dempsey made it necessary to postpone the meeting. The parade committee met nnd ar ranged finally for the miner boys' pro cession and mass meeting this after noon. Organizer Dllcher and Secretary McGulre. of the Carpenters union, are expeted to be the speakers. President Mitchell was Invited, but could not come.

A mass meeting was held at Moo.sio yesterday afternoon, at which speeches were made by Secretary Dempsey and A. C. Cattermull, and Eugene Odell, of the Carpenters' union. AN .OPERATOR ON ARBITRATION A well-known local coal operator yesterday expressed himself as follows with reference to the arbitration question: Judging fiom the Items and editorials In the daily papers, the public has been confused by the talk of arbitration on the part of tho leaders of the I'nlted Mine Workers. A large number of the public favor such laws for arbitration as an in cllect In Australia and New Zealand. We hao jet to hear from any operator who has not nearly tho same ideas. On what are these laws regarding arbitration that have been enact ed elsewhere, and which It has been proposed should be enacted in this state, based? It Is that an employer and bis employes shall be heard by a board of arbitrators, who shall adju dicate the matter and compel the two sides to abide by such deiklon. This Is eminently Just and right, but whoever heard of the preposterous sujgrstlon that a man In business in New York must take Into account what another merchant In the same business is doing in Philadelphia when n question arises between him and his em ployes? This is the demand of the United Hi ne Work ers; that the schedule and conditions applying at Carbondale must apply at Lykens, separated by three or four sets of mountains and over one hundred miles away, and utterly discarding the tact that some of the coal Is mined by strip ping oS the surface and that some of tho coal lies in seams only three feet thick, whllo In other legions the seams are twenty feet thick, besides the many minor differences In each mine. Over a hundred thousand of these miners have never had an) tiling to do with a company doc tor, or ever had a dollar of their wages used up by a company store, because there are no stores In any way, directly or indirectly, con nected with the coal companies In the regions In which they work. Some of the men are paid by the so-called mine-ton, which waa never pretend ed by any company to be a ton, but to represent tho amount of rock bone and coal from which a marketable ton would be realised; others are paid by the can Thousands of the minera hare no conception of a sliding scale, which Is quoted as a grievance of the United Mine Workers, because t'at method of computing wages Is not In vogue lu 'their dis trict, yet, regardless of these differences, condl tlonj and circumstances affectlrpt Hie conditions tinder which 140,000 men are working, tho United Mine Workers say that theopcrators, as a whole, must arbitrate with them regarding the list of grievances they present, and the atrlke labors demand that the legitimate offer of atbitratlon, as agreed upon and practiced for fifteen years by Matkle & Company, shall be refused, and the men shall bold together for this sweeping set of generalities, for all the men alike. If the men of each locality had asked for arbi tration they would have brought out, at once, what was the difference between each act of em ployes and the company, and there would have been something to arbitrate, and, if ever there Is a compulsory law, this, and this only, would be the basis on which arbitration could ever proceed. Let us have arbitration, but the public should not be confounded by this wild proposition of as suming that this vast army of men are all being treated alike, or that they desire, or would be affected, by the same changes, NO SENTIlhENT IN STRIKE NOW President Mitchell's action in de manding that Mnrkle & Co.'s miners strike despite their solemn agreement not to do so, has killed off any lin gering sentiment that might have ob tained in this conflict on the opera tors' side. One of the latter, who re turned form New York yesterday said : "If there was any coal man waver ing In the position we took to light to the death against the United MIno Workers' organization, that man wav ers no longer. For my part I would board up our shaft and go out of the business before granting tho slightest recognition of thnt organization, and I have yet to meet an operator who is not of tho same mind. For their own sake, I hope the miners will soon wake up to a realization of the hope lessness of their fight. "To think that our men are likely to be called out every time there is trouble in the soft coal regions or some other part of tho anthracite regions If n party of labor agitators out at Indianapolis deem it advislble, is enough to make us determined to lose everything rather than allow that or ganization to get Into control here. This Jeddo incident has opened the eyes of the public and In New York there is u very different sentiment towards the union than there was a week ago." TRYING fO KEEP MEN EMPLOYED Some little consolation may be de rived by the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western trainmen from the an nouncement that the transportation department Is considering a move to substitute grain for coal during the continuance of the strike. The Lacka wanna has never made any special ef fort to do grain carrying business, be cause of the low rates on grain allowed by the trafllc association. The recent action of this association in boosting the rates, coupled with the fact that the Lackawanna does not want to have its equipment and men idle, leads it to go after a share of this trade. At present the freight and drill crews are not getting more than four days a week nnd there is a possibility of their time being diminished still more, If something isn't done to supply some kind of freight to take the place of coal. Grain is the only article that offers a solution of the difficulty, and by this means the transportation de partment will endeavor to effect the solution. What the Delaware and fludson men can look forward to has not even peeped over the horizon as yet, Thlr coal and mixed freight crews are, for the most part, idle, and yesterday it was reported that seventy-six hands about the Carbondale shops and yards were laid off. The other serious lateral effect of the strike, the cutting off of the fuel sup ply to local Industries, Is assuming a more regrettnhle phase each day. Tho trolley company is badly inconveni enced, but by heroio measures manages to give a fairly good service. The sill: factories, woollen mills and other large Industries find themselves facing tin alternative of closing down or Taring. Ing In soft coal, if tho strike continues for any considerable length, and as these Industries are averse to doing anything that will give Scranton such a serious blow as would be lnlllcted by the Introduction of soft coal, their managers aro In a very undesirable quandary. On this question of soft coal, Super intendent C. O, Hose, of the Delaware and Hudson company's mining depart ment, said yesterday that once the anthracite regions' customers change their furnace grates und get to using soft coal, the task of turning thm back to the use of anthracite will be made extremely dltllcult. NOTES OF INTEREST ABOUT THE STRIKE Tho following appeared in last even ing's Truth: "Mr. Editor, will you please allow me a small space In your valuable paper? I have carefully read Mr. Iyoomls' statement of his reply to the committee from the Lackawanna union, in which he stated he regretted the conditions did not warrant a gen eral Increase in wages, but that ho stood willing and ready to adjust all littlo matters of differences that might exist with his men when they returned to work, and that It was his desire to BARGAINS ON Coffee and Tea Qolden Rlof-14c per lb.; 4 lbs for 50c. Coursen's xxx Java, 20c per lb.; 5 lbs 90c. Coursen's Ceylon Tea 25c per package. Coursen's No. 1 Basket Fire Japan Tea, 50c; 5 lbs for $2.00. Coursen's Fine Formosa Oolong. 50c per lb,. 5 lbs for $2,00. E. G. Course,. 429 Lacka. Ave. rco that each man working for that company received a fair day's wases for a fair day's work. I, therefore, as n Delaware, Lackawanna and Western mine worker, suggest that the com mittee from the Lackawanna union who called upon Mr. Loomls call a meeting, to be held in Hyde Park, to discuss the situation as it exists, and as it applies to the men employed by the Delaware, Lackawanna, nnd West ern. I cannot help but think much good can bo accomplished in a meeting like this." Instead of wnltlnir until after the first of October, the Delaware, Lacka wanna and Western company will pay their mine employes their September earnings ns soon as the pay rolls can bo mado out. This will probably be tho first of next week. The usual an nouncements will be mado in due time In the columns of The Tribune. Large gains aro being mado dally to the union's ranks. Secretary Dempsey estimates that 70,000 of the 78,000 mine workers of District No. 1 are now en rolled in the United Mine Workers. Seven different local unions were or ganized this week in Pittston alone, nnd A;ach one of them embraces every mine worker In Its locality. Organizer Nicholas Burke organized live of these. MAKING THE REGIMENT READY Col. Watres Summoned His Staff at Midnight to Prepare for a Call. 1'ntll 12.10 o'clock this morning the Thirteenth regiment was headed to wards Shenandoah. The regiment, however, was not aware of it and its members slept peacefully on in blissful ignorance of Its proximity to another siege of strike service. At 11 o'clock last night Colonel Watres despatched a corps of mes senger boya with summons to his Held and staff to assemble nt once at his residence. At 11.30 o'clock a news paper advice came from Philadelphia to the effect that the Thirteenth had been called to fill Sheriff O'Toole's requisition for troops. At midnight, when a Tribune reporter visited Colo nel Watres' residence, the colonel, Ad jutant D. Ii. Atherton, Major Frank Robling, Quartermaster F. M. Vand- llng and Battalion Adjutant W. K. Ounster were assembled In the library, hastening arrangements to get the command under way at a moment's notice. Lieutenant Colonel Stlllwell nnd the other ofllcers were reported to be on their way. Colonel Watres would only say that he expected to be called every minute. Adjutant General Thomas 15. Stewart was to arrive In Harrlsburg from Philadelphia at 12.10 a. m and the regiments to be called out would be at once chosen. At 12.20 the Associated Press bul letined The Tribune that the Fourth, Eighth and Twelfth regiments, the Governor's troop and Battery B were the commands selected. The Informa tion was at once telegraphed to Colonel Watres and a few minutes later simi lar Information was telephoned from Harrlsburg. Messages came about the same time to Major W. S. Millar, brigade inspec tor, and Captain W. W. Inglls, nn aide on the brigadier's staff, to report at once to General Gobln at Slienandnah. INCREASING THE PLANT. Extension of the Suburban Electric Light Plant. The Suburban Electric Light com pany Is making extensive alterations and Improvements at its Washington avenue plant, with the view of con solidating the plant now situated on lowui Scranton street, and known as the Gas and Water plant, with it. The last named plant furnishes the power for tho street lights, and the two will bo consolidated for the sake of economy. An addition to the engine room at the Washington avenue plant, COxSO feet in size, is being constructed and also an addition to the boiler room, COxSO feet in size. The three 300 horse-power engines now in the Gas and Water plant will be removed to Washington avenue, but tho dynamos now In use will bo sup planted by seven new ones of the most modern pattern, which will supply a much steadier light than those now used. Not only this, but there will be far less liability of the lamps going out unexpectedly than at present. This will be partly due to the new dyna mos mid partly to a new style of lamp which Is to be used as soon as tho plant is remodeled. This lamp Is constructed on entirely new principles and will re quire trimming only onco every 100 hours. It Is expected that the alterations will have been completed by the end of the year, and that by January 1 the street lamps will be lighted by power generated at the Washington avenue plant. POOR BOARD MEETING. Number of Applicants Admitted to Hillside Home. At yesterday afternoon's meeting of the poor board an especially large num ber of applicants for outdoor relief were considered, several of those who appeared having been thrown out of employment and rendered destitute by the strike, Ono of these was Bernard Ducey, who said ho went to the boss and asked for work last Monday, but was informed that the mines were closed, not enough men having shown up to warrant opening them. "Sure, I haven't a cent to me name," said he, pathetically, "and when I told me boarding mistress about it she threw mo out." He was admitted to the Hillside Homo. Thomas Grady, a bent old man. asked for relief for himself and his wife, who he said was older than lie. The board decided to send them both to the home, but he didn't like that at all and came nearly refusing the offer. "If I go up there, sure, I'll never leave It again. Little did I think I'd ever have to go to tho poor house. Can't you let me have a few dollars to pay mo rent, that's nil. Can't you, please," and the thin, weak voice trem bled and broke. The board wa3 Inexorable, however, and Thomas finally accepted the Inev itable and hobbled wearily out, mut tering: "I'll never get out again. I'll never get out again." Richard Beunctt, a half paralyzed miner; George Downing, a negro with an injured knee, and Patrick Cawley, another old man, were also admitted to the home. The plans of Architect Davis for the construction of a new store liouso at the Hillside Home wero approved and the secretary was directed to advertls) for bids for the construction of the building, With one exception the Colorado delegates who walked out of the St. houii convention in 1S96 have returned to the Republican fold. NUMBER OF CHANGES WERE CONSIDERED SESSIONS OF THE CARPENTERS AND JOINERS. Almost the Entire Day Was Con sumed in Considering Sections of tho Report on Amedumcnts to tho Constitution Collection Taken Up for the Benefit of the Strikers. In the Afternoon the Delegates Wont Through the International Correspondence School. Both sessions of yesterday's conven tion of tho Carpenters nnd Joiners werq again taken up with receiving of tho report of the committee on amendments to the constitution, nnd discussing the changes in the govern ing laws which were submitted. Tho entire morning was spent in debating various of the amendments, but by the end of the short afternoon ses sion, which was adjourned at 3 o'clock, to enable tho -delegates to visit the Correspondence Schools, the report was almost completed. A few minor nnd unimportant amendments will be presented, and action will then be tnken on the acceptance of the com mittee's report In Its entirety. Among the Innovations in the brotherhood law yesterday brought before the convention, was the ques tion of extending the length of time In which a member can bo In arrears In the payment of his dues nnd not he suspended. Another nmendment which aroused a great deal of de bate was regarding the strike bene fits. The collection of a sum of money to be given the striking miners, which was begun Thursday, was completed yesterday, and during '"the afternoon session, Delegates Featherstone, of New York, nnd McCarthy, of San Francisco, announced that $104 was the sum realized. This will be given to Organizer Dllcher, to distribute as he sees fit. RAISING OF DUES. Tile nmendment regarding the rais ing of dues was yesterday disposed of, and the payments In local unions for full beneficial members was raised from fifty to sixty cents, and from thirty-five to forty cents for seml beneflclal members. The national per capita tax was raised from twenty cents to twenty-five cents. These changes must be established by a referendum vote of the unions all over the country, before they become permanent. The present rules for the suspend ing of members are to the following effect: When anyone belonging to a local union is six months behind In the payment of his monthly assess ment he is suspended. It was sug gested as an nmendment that the time be extended to twelve months. Dis cussion on this subject occupied the entire morning session, but it was at last decided to alllow the law to re main afi it is, at present. Another cause of much debate was an amendment regarding the status of carpenters towards the local unions of any city. In which he was making n temporary stay. As the constitu tion at present stands, If a man is called to some other city on any work lie retains membership In his original union, and continues paying his dues to that association. An amendment was Introduced, providing for his transfer to the union of the city in which he was making his temporary abode. After considerable arguing of the matter, it was decided to continue ns heretofore. The small amendment was made, however, that In all such cases, the union man would be sub ject to nnd governed by the rules of the union of the city where he was maltnlg a stay. STRIKE BENEFITS. At present, In enses of a strike, the members of the uilon are not entitled to any benefit until after the first week, and then receive $1 a day. It was proposed that this be changed, and benefits paid from the. beginning of the strike. This measure was, however, lost. Today the report will be concluded. A proposition to insert at the end of the constitution the recent standing decisions of the general executive board will be among the amendments offered. It is likely that the report of Secretary-Treasurer McGulre will be presented to the convention. At 3.30 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the delegates inarched In a body to the International Correspondence schools, and were shown through tho building. Each of the guests was pre sented with a handsome souvenir, in the form of a morrocco bound vol ume, describing the various depart ments of the schools.
