BOARD OP CHARITIES
IN NEED OF MONEY
There Is Only $75.80 in the Treas
ury to Meet Claims Amounting
to Nearly $400.
The treasury of the board of disso
ciated charities, an organization which
Is doing a wonderful work In this
city, is In a most depleted condition,
despite the canvnbs made during the
pnst few weeks by the ofllcers of the
organization.
This fact was revealed at last
night's regular meeting, when Tteas
urer Kelly read his report for the
month. This showed that there is
only $75.S0 In the treasury to VQy
claims amounting to almost $100. Mrs.
Duggitn, the agent of the association,
has not been paid her salary since
August last.
The receipts for tin- past month
showed that contributions had only
been lecelved from about a half a
dozen persons, two of whom were ofTl
ceis of the board. The members pres
ent realized the necessity for prompt
action and it was decided to have
each make a personal effort to secute
funds to cany on the work of the
organization.

read and ordered filed, gave the fol

two children and it was decided to
procure a true bill against her and
then have the district attorney put
the case over. This would keep it
hanglna over her head.
It was announced that a certain

OPINIONS ON
THE BIG DEAL
i
NEW YORK CENTRAL SAID TO
BE PLAYING BIG HAND.
Carrying Out the Pi on Made At the
Conference, with the Pennsylvania
Railroad Management in 1800 Af
ter Collieries in Hazleton Region.
Way the Defeat of the Now Road
Project Is Looked at in Pittsburg.
What the Philadelphia Stockholder
Thinks About It.
"New York Central Is playing the
big hand in the present nnthraclto
coal deals," says a Philadelphia dis
patch. "It Is now New York Central's
turn to cover Its end of the plan made
with tho Pennsylvania railroad man
agement In the famous conlorenco (of
November, 1899.
"It has begun by securing tho Bos
ton and Albany line and tho Penn
sylvania Coal compnny's nineteen col
lieries at $30,000,000 through the J.
Plerpont Morgan syndicate.
"It was stated today that the Cross
Creek Coal company the Kckley B.
Coxe estate, at Drltlon, Freoland,
Derringer and Ellengowan had been
seeureJ by the Morgan syndicate, the
nine collieries going nt $11,500,000.
"The George B. Marklo & Co. proper
ties, five In number, at Highland,
Jeddo and Japan, It is said, arc to fol
low, at $0,700,000, and the properties of
the Pardees, at Hazleton are bid for
on tenders nt $7,500,00').
"It was further stated today that
negotiations were on for the Lehigh
Coal nnd Nnigatlon company's eight
collieries In the Panther Creek valley,
four miles over from Tomaqua.
"Prospective deals show that thesi
properties are on the Morgan list. nnl
the announcement was made today
that an offer of $14,000,000 had bei-n
made for Lehigh Na Igatlon.
".John C. Haddock, a leading i pt-r-ator
at Wllkes-Barre, whose mines
are located at Forty Fort, on the
west side, said todny:
" 'I have heard that the ventures
and investments would take up all ot
$190,000,000. That may be true, as the
properties In sight are Immensely val
uable, and the prospects are that If
they do not sell they will be crowded
out on the transportation.
", 'Thete Is always such a thing as a
lack of cars or failure of motive power
on the part of railroads, and opera
tors will have their pi Ice when ap
proached, " 'The individual operator is, I hear,
open to tenders, and the movement Is
quite extensive. It covers tho Held.' "
SORROW IN PITTSBURG.
"The absorptton of the Pennsylvania
Coal compa'ny of Scranton by the an
thracite coal roads caused the keenest
regret in Pittsburg, as one more pos
sible Independent outlet to the sea
board is thus blocked," says the Pitts
burg exchange. "It was said to have
been the scheme of Brenton Welling,
the New York promoter, who has in
terested himself in the local rate sit
uation, to have secured several small
roads, link them up with the Delaware
Valley e Kingston railroad, proposed
by the Pennsylvania Coal company,
arid build enough now line to bring the
road Into Pittsburg. The fact that the
Pensylvania Coal company, the richest
private coiporation of Its kind in the
state, had determined to 'build a lino
of Its own gave encouragement to those
striving to gain nn outlet here.
"It is said that routes were surveyed
toward Wllliamsport, and that it was
the hone of the New York promoter
that the Pennsylvania Coal company
could be induced to assist in building
to the west in connection with the
Pittsburg interests deslting an inde
pendent outlet. The ' big anthracite
coal company was Interested In the
scheme by tho Independent operators of
the hard-coal region, and plans had
been matured for a line from Kingston
on the Hudson river, to Honosdnle. It
was the intention to build later west
ward to a point near Wllliamsport and
that the rest would be easy."
OVERSHADOWED ALL.
The event of greater Importance,
which overshadowed all other occur
rences of last week, was the change of
ownership of the Pennsylvania Coal
'company, which, In passing Into control
of the Erie, was a matter of vital im
portance and a direct and great stride
In the direction of concentration ot
ownership of the Pensylvania anthra
cite coal fields, besides lemoving ap
prehension regarding building of the
proposed Independent coal road, tights
to which, owned by the Pennsylvania
Coal company, are by transfer of tho
latter turned over to the Erie. Phila

Schimpff, the Jteweler,
Has much to show you in the Gift It e more than you'll see
in most other stores. Not only more, but something "dif
ferent" novelties that appeal to you, because of their
novelty.
Schimpff, the Jeweler,
Has everything going in the jewelry line. Think ol what
you want ; it's there. Prices, too, are less than you think,
when you consider that no matter what you buy, quality is
apparent.

What to Ray
Maybe this list of articles and prices will help you a bit.
The range of prices is the greatest possible when you stop to
consider prices. Pay less, and quality suffers. Pay more and
well, you don't need to pay more, if you come here.
