machinists had taken the Initiative In
violating: the terms of the oriRlnnl
agreement, the association had merely
declared that contract null and void
as a result of the strikers' own ac

The principal business done at tho

No effort Is yet being made by the
local members of the association to
operate their plants, and while the
Tiianufactiirers declare that they will
not turn aside any men applying to

recruit employes from out of the city.
There were no new developments
during the day among the strikers
themselves. The delegate to the ma

Buffalo division, has annulled the order
permitting Hie transportation of dyna

the road. The order becomes effective
at once, except for any explosive ma
terials now actually on trains.
Whether this order will become per
manent is not yet known, as Hie orll
i.drtls have not decided on that. It Is
possible that some special arrange
ment will he made for transporting ex
plosives other Hum the one recently
In vogue. An investigation of the dam
age done to properly at Vestal is now
belnc made.

riRE ON HARBISON AVENUE.
Two Story Ablaze for Third Time in
a Year.
A fire which was very probably of
Incendiary origin broke out this morn
ing shortly before 1 o'clock on Iho
ground lloor of a two story unoccupied
building at , "OS Harrison avenue, owned
by Thomas Young, of Dnnmore,
An nlarnt wns turned In from box I2S
at the corner of Prospect nvcnttu and
Vine street, and the Crystnls anil Tto
llefs responded, The flames were loi't
lonlbtcd to one or two rooms, Theiu
was a strong smell of kerosene about
the place and this, coupled with tho
fact that this Is the third time with
in a year that It has heen afire, gives
rise to the theory of Incendlatlsni. The
damage done will not amount to over
$100.
DECKER'S EYE INJURED.

BATTLE WITH BURGLARS.
Station Agent Chase and Two Com
panions Had an Exciting Time
at Parsons.
F. X. Chase, station agent at Par
sons, had an exciting battle with bur
glars at the station early yesterday
morning. Mr. Chase lives a short dis
tance from the station, and the build
ings are connected by a burglar alarm.
Karly yesterday morning Hie ringing
of tills alarm woke him up. and dress
ing he aroused two of his neighbors
who accompanied him to the station.
All were armed with shot guns.
An examination of Hie station
showed that two men were in the
building and Chase and his aids deter
mined to capture them. A noise was
made and the burglars alarmed, made
their exit by way of a. window.
I'pon gaining the platform they were
told to surrender, but the thieves drew
their revolvers and fired several shots
at Chase and his two comrades, who
returned the Ore with their shot guns
at close range. Yells of rage ami
groans of pain followed the volley from
the shot guns, but botli men succeeded
iu tho excitement that followed in
making good their escape. Chase and
his companions are positive that at
least one of the burglars was wounded.
The thieves were at work upon the
freight and express matter when sur
prised by Chase. The burglars, in their
haste to escape, took nothing with
theiu, but left several article's as sou
venirs for Hie agent.
Kadi burglar left a new umbrella,
two bags to carry away their plunder
and a pint bottle containing a small
((tmntliy of whiskey.
Martin Crippen, detective for Hie
Delaware and Hudson, was notified and
is now working upon tho case.

bility of not being aide to recover In

WHAT CAUSES DEAFNESS
Tht Principal Gaut Is Ourabli but Qtnarally Of arlooked.
m
ri32
Many things may
deafness, and very often
difficult to trace a cause.
people inherit deafness.
diseases like scarlet rever some
times cause deafness. But by far the
most common cause of loss of hearing
is catarrh of the head and throat.
A prominent specialist on ear troubles
irives as his opinion that nine out of ten cases
of deafness is traced to throat trouble; this is probably overstated but it is certainly
true that more than half of all cases of poor hearing were caused by catarrh.
The catarrhal secretion in the lungs and throat finds its way into the Eustachian
tube and by clogging it- up very soon affects the hearing and the hardening of the se
cretion makes the loss of hearing permanent, unless the catarrh which caused the
trouble is cured.
Those who are hard of hearing may think this a little far fetqhed, but any one at
all obsexvant must have noticed how a hard cold in the head will affect the hearing
and that catarrh if long neglected will certainly impair the sense of hearing ana
ultimately cause deafness.
If the nose and throat are kept clear and free from the unhealthy secretions
of catarrh, the hearing will at once greatly improve and anyone suffering from deaf
ness and catarrh can satisfy themselves on this point by using a fifty cent box of
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, a new catarrh cure, which in the past year has won the ap
proval of thousands of catarrh sufferers as well as physicians, because it is in conven
met form to use, contains no cocaine or opiate and is as safe and pleasant for children
as for their elders.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets is a wholesome combination of Blood root, Gnaiacol, Eucaluptol and
similar antiseptics and they cure catarrh and catarrhal deafness by action upon the blood and
raucous membrane of the nose and throat.
As one physician aptly expresses it; "You do not have to draw upon the imagination to dis
cover whether you are getting benefit from Stuart's Catarrh Tablets; improvement and relief are
apparent from the first tablet taken.
All druggists sell and recommend them. They cost but fifty cents for full sized package and
any catarrh sufferer who has wasted time and money on sprays, salves and powders will appreciate
to the lull the merit ot Stuart's
OLYPHANT.

The Eastern
Consolidated Oil Go
Of California,
Have placed their proapccttia in the
hands ot llie tindPinlifiicd, and cun be
scon by all who have a desire to nc
qnaint themselves -with tho true and
unbiased statements of tho facta set
forth.
The following clipping, etc., may In
terest the reader, but for full details
we must refer you lo llie prospectus
of the company, which will be found
Intensely interesting as well ns In
structive: First The ofllcers arc from the East,
nnd are Incorporated under the laws of
Maine.
Kecond Tho capital stock Is $.",000,flOO.
Third The par value of stock Is $1.00
per share.
Fourth The price of shares are 25
cents each.
Fifth The properly owned and con
trolled by tho company is ID.tlSfi'.i
acres, all underlaid with oil, which has
been critically examined by test wells
and oil may ho seen on surface of laud
as well as lloaling out for miles on the
ocean.
Sixth One hundred and ten acres of
this vast tract lies In the southwest
ern Held of l.os Angeles. Upon this
pot-lion are throe wells now producing
oil In siililclent fiiianlilies to pay a
handsome dividend upon the allotment
of capital stock now offered for sale.
.Seventh The fourth well was to be
finished by June 1 (pi-ob.ibly producing
now).
Klghth Orders have been given for
seven more to be finished by August 1
and live more by September 1, which
will make sixteen producing at that
time. These (at low estimate) should
bring lo tho treasury over fciO.OOO a
month.
Ninth Tho company propose to sink
nue well lo each acre on tills 110 acre
plot. Now. If sixteen wells will pro
duce $20,000, 110 acres would produce
$i:!7,rn0 a month, and twelve times that
would bo $l,e.rj0,00fi lu one year, and 19,
CMi'i acres at the same ratio would
yield a revenue of $,JSS.ii1,i7"., when In
lull operation. Now, suppose wo de
duct from the above for expenses in
equipping this vast acreage, including
salaries, etc, $$8,021,7:.':!. we would then
have $200,000,000 a year for dividends.
And as wo have only 3,000,000 shares,
It would give every one $40 for every
share ho owned, alter paying or the
equipment.
$25 will now purchase 100 shares.
$50 will now put chase 200 shares.
$100 will now purchase 400 shares.
400 shares at $40 each would he
$16,000 a year, which cost you to
day only $100.
The latest news. Sill of .lime, is that
the ofllcers are on the way to Cali
fornia to purchase another very valu
able property that Is producing large
quantities of oil. II' the directors make
tills purchase, the price or Steele must
ndvaiu-i'.
