A carefully prepatcd and complete list of nil the dtflciency bills on llle In Controller I low ells' olllce Is bolug pre pared by Deputy Controller Hartley and will be s"iit Into councils next week together with a communication re questing that some action be taken to picnent more deficiencies being created. The contt oiler Is not yet In a posi tion to make public the exact amount of these deficiencies, but It Is known that It is vety laige- The Tiibune n -porter saw a number of Hie depart ment bills which passed the auditing committee on Monday night but which are lielmj "hung up" by the controller because tbete Is no money to p-iy them. Thi'y aggtegato about $I.".o nnd are foi the re-pali s of engine houses. The nppioptlatiein for this purpose has been exhausted for some time. In addition to these theie ate a huge number of other department' bills routucl'd earlier In the year amounting to up w at els of $1,000 for which theie Is mi n ot ey. It is the same with neatly eveiy other city depattment and In some In stances with the watd appioprlatlons. The Klfth waid approptlatlou Is nl leady overdtawn about $30", the Foutth watcl Is oeidi.iwn and s-o ate sevetal otheis. The deflciencs' upptnprintlon for this fiscal year was JS.ISH !)J, but the heads of s-eveial departments contracted a bad hnblt which the contt oiler will cn deavoi to bleak up this eat. Lai Re numbeis of deficiency bills wte held back until the apptopilation ordinance was passed and veie then sent to the auditing committee so that a huge part of this ye.ii's apptopilation for seveial depot tments went foi pajlng bills c in fracted last yeai. This accounts to a cettaln extent for the creation ot so many dellclen cies so calls thi"- S'ear. The contioller will endeavor to have councils dliect the hcaels of all dep.it tments to send In nil their dellelene j bills before the end of the fiscal year so that they may be ptovlded for In the legular dellclency nppiopilatlon Instead of having them charged up against specific npptopila lions made for the next fiscal ear. It is hard to piophecy what action councils will take on the contt ollei's communication. The Benin al custom heretofote has been lo order such com munications tecelved and filed. That Is about as far as councils evei go in the mnl'ter but the controller is hopeful that they will break away fiom the time honoied custom this yeut. m BELLA LANE ARRESTED.

If the Increase conies It will be granted on a pcrcentaRe basis', with the present schedule of iogm as the foundation to work on. It Is haidly necessary to state that a condition precedent to the settlement Is that the fnlted Mine Winkers' or ganization shall not be known in the deal. How completely thp local operatots were on the outside of what was bel'isj (lone In New York yesterday, Is at tested by their tldlctilinB of the news paper stories in the afternoon, and their chagiln In the evening when they learned authoritatively that the news paper stories weie pietty nearly cor rect. I'ven as piomlnent a coal man as Superintendent C. C Hose, of the Dela ware nnd Hudson company's mlnlns department, said at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon: "I know nothlnir about the matter, but I take no stock In these stories. It Is not at all llkels." A statement fiom tho operatots Is possible toda EVENTS OF DAY IN THIS REGION Another Indication of the movement on the wait of the operators to open up some of the collieries In this le gion nt nn eatly duy Is found In the suddenly-arrlved-at decision to pay off the sttlkeis with all possible haste. The Delaware, Lackawanna and West- oi n eonilinnv ovtinelu In tnivn nil It men paid by Wednesday next. Tho Cl i'ennsyiv.ania coal company will pay at every one of Its twenty-seven col lieries In Lackawanna and Luzerne counties todas. Other companies me at woik on their pay tolls and will follow suit with all possible alacrlts. Once the striken receive their pay they ate no longer In tho companies' sen l"i Helng employes no longer, they have no light or excuse to go upon the companies' pieyicrly. If they do so, they me amenable to the law as tiespasseM. With this In mind, the connection between the contemplated move to reopen tho mines and the ad vancing of the pay days is obvious.

Another consignment of twenty-three cars of soft coal came Into the city yes tcida'. Wheie It came fiom or whom It Is going to was not disclosed. It Is gathered fiom unotllclal sources, how ever, that It Is bi ought heie by a local letaller to fill orders secured from mills and factories. It has been posltlveH demonstrated that soft coal vsill bum In culm grates without any alteration'! whatever be ing made In the arrangement of the grates, Just as was claimed by tho McClave & Hrooks people, Inventots and miiiuifactuter.s of the culm grates used almost extensively heieabouts. This means that Scranton's Indus tiles will not have to close elow i for lack of fuel, us theie is every assur ance that all the soft coal the city may need can be secuied without dlfll culty. The tumor that New Yotk city Is to suspend Its antt-bltuminous oullnance during the pendency of the strike has not taken tangible foim ns yet. Col onel Muiphy, president of the New Yoik boaid of health, Is declared In one Interview to be In favor of per mitting the use of soft coal In prefer ence to having the people fieeze, and in a later Interview he Is made to say that theie Is no necesslts for annulling the antt-bltumlnous ordinance, as the city has a large suppls of hard coal, one, "while It moy not be In sight, It Is theie nevertheless and will come forth when thodealeis have forced the prices to th limit He has 400 inspectors out in the factory districts watching for violations of the soft coal ordinance. As to the tie-up, the old stoty still stands, with a few slight alterations. The liowen and Taylor washerles le sunieil yesterday after a few das's" Idle ness. The Columbus washers also started up after being Idle one day, It being now operated onls evers other day because of the unwillingness of its men to prepaio culm except for the electilc light plants, of which It Is a pait.

Orders were Kitted from Superintend ent Loomls' olllce yesteiday to prevent parties with wagons fiom taking coul from the dumps. It came to tlia knowledge of the company that certain parties wejo picking and screening coal and selling It. This wus consid ered an nbttse of the privilege tho company Is extending to Its cmploycf, and also a violation of the wishes of the United Mine Workers, who want all traffic In coal to cease. The for mer consideration, however, occasioned the order from Superintendent Loomls olllce. THE ENIGMATICAL FRANK T. HAWLEY Prank T. Hawlev, otherwise Thad deti3 Howies, formerly of Scran ton, later of Cnrbondale nnd now of Huftalo. who Is lin ing tho position of gland master of the Switchmen's union of Noith Amer ica, has been heaid from again. lie fore he left Scranton, last Mondav, to go to "N'evv York, h" made several onl grammatle statements, that weie In terpreted by the newspaper men who heaid them and the genetal public to whom thej were repeated, to mean that the switchmen had called him hero to advise with them on the matter of i cf using to handle non-union coal, and that it lemaiued with him nml Secretary Tipton to sas what the switchmen would do In the matter. Now he declaies, fiom New Yoik city, that the purpose of his vlsluwas to deal with some gilevances that the gt switchmen had that weie fn nowise onnected with the mlnei.s or non union coal or anything like that, and by the wording of his declaration leaves It to bo Inferred that the non union coal mattei was simply used ns a lever to force a redress of the switch men's own gilevances. and that the plan worked sucee--sfulls. He declaicd Outlier In his New York interview that the mlnets were expect ing too milch, If they counted on the switchmen getting themselves Into bother to effect nothing moie than the doslnr, clown of th few culm wah erles that are yet l mining. "Why don't tiles do this without going outside for help?' Mr. Hawley asked. "This Is their fight and they ought not ask out tldeis to make blj sacrifice.1' to help them to get out th few of their ciaft who nti? s'et working. The switchmen can not see their way clear to Intel -feie." Local lalltoadeis who lo not hold Mr. Hawley In as high esteem ns he appaiently commands In distant places, are not very well pleased with his con duct, and ate saying things that to the outsider, not conveisant with all the facts in the case, would sound rather lutempeiate. Incidental, Mr. Hawley was not In this city yesterday or the dny befoie. He Is In Hoston to day. The news that the switchmen would do nothing to aid In dosing up the washerles ha occasioned a call lor a special meeting of the executive boaid of the United Mine Workeis of Dls tilct No. 3, for tomoiiow afternoon, to devise some new plan of attack. Or ganizer Ditcher Is expected to be here to lend his counsel. The men of Dls tilct No. 1 aie justly pioud of the practical completeness of the tie-up heie, and view witli undisguised chag iln the operations of the washeiles, the only collleiles, leaving aside two or thiee Insignificant woi kings, that are poulticing fuel In nil the Lackawanna Wyoming legion. If theie Is any way of tlelng up the washeiles the boaid mposes to find that wa, and act at u.tcv and vlgmously. NOTES OF INTEREST ABOUT THE STRIKE The lace woiks employes have pio tested against the company using non union coal. Nothing has come of the protest yet. The Delawaie nnd Hudson company has detailed fifty-eight coal and lion police to look after Its woi kings In Clinton township, Wayne county. V..

Deecham's Pills No equal for con CITY'S PROTEST TO BE FILED TODAY COUNCILS TAKE UP ABINGTON TURNPIKE MATTER. A Resolution Passed Both Branches Directing the City Solicitor to Tako Steps to Prevent the Granting of a Boulevard Cltnrter Tho Official Protest Signed by the Mayor Says That tho Whole Affair Is Merely n Subterfuge to Prevent Condemna tion Pioceedhigs. Xs exclusively predicted In yester day's Tiibune a resolution was intro duced and pnfscd both councils last night directing the city solicitor to lake necesrary steps lo prevent the grunting of a boulevard charter to the company organl'ted for the pur pose of operating n boulevard between North Soianton sjtvl Chinchilla. Mns'or Molr iece(ed word from Hnr rlsbtirg yesterday that the time llxed for the granting of the charter was Tuesday next, upon which date It would be granted, providing no ob jections wile filed belote. This re quited that Immediate action be taken by councils nnd the lesoltition went thtotigh both branches with a rush. The city's olllcial ptotest against the granting of the charter will be sent on to Harrlsburg this morning It is signed bs Mns'or Molr. bears the I ni pt Int of the seal of the city, and is addressed to Governor William A. Stone. After citing1 the facts regarding the existing contiact between the cits and the Ablngton Turnpike company and the pending condemnation proceed ings, the protest goes on to say "It Is purposed to be proved that this application for a charter for tho bou levard company Is made by the same persons who constitute the said turn pike lompans nnd that tills applica tion Is made for the purpose of de feating1 the condemnation proceedings Just refcned to by incorporating a new company which would not bo sub ject to conelemnntlon and having tills new company lease or purchase the toad of the said turnpike company within the Itv limits, and thus keep the central t with the city of Scran ton In full force. "It Is expected to be pioved that tin application for the Incorporation of the said boulevard company Is not made In good faith for the put pose of forming nn Independent coipotatlon, but that It Is slmplv a subterfuge to avoid the condemnation of a pan of the turn pike compans's road lying within the citv of Scuinton and the nbiogntlon of the contract between said turnpike companv and the i Itv of Scuinton."
