ANOTHER HOT WAVE. Fromisos to Be a Repetition of tho Torrid Spell Experienced Two Weeks Ago. Weather Obseiver Clarke says he doesn't want to be held responsible for the weather on Its way here and duo In course of three or four days. About the most encomaglng things he could be Induced to say was that he hoped It would not be a repetition of the not altogether non-unfiigld spell experienced tho eaily part of the month. The bother Is all coming from tip near Vancouver, H. C, and not Wash ington, D. C, according to Mr. Clarke. Ho showed the repot ter n map with a lot of markings on It and said "You can seo for yourself how it happens." The reporter gazed Intently at the markings, put on a wise look and said: "That's the way, eh?" "Yes,"' said the weatherman, "In this region of high depression there Is more or less Isothermal humidity en gendered by tho nrea of relative pre cipitation, and isobarlc elevation. This causes certain things which causes cer tain other things, and between them they eau tho weather. Besides this, Mr. Clarke stated that the coming three or four days will be hot but not sizzling hot. A nice hot wave from up Vancouver way was heading hencewnrd, but it took to the north of the lakes and escaped us, A wad of hot that has been hovering over the country between the Rockies and the Mississippi l ready to move out and take to the east, and when It does this really truly hotnebs now generating In tho Northwest coiner of the United States will take its place and after a short fcojotirn in the west will Hweep this way. This last sweep Is to do the damage. Mr. Claike hopes that it will not be as hot a wave as that which vent this way a couple of weeks ago, but as stated before, he simply hopes. Monday had some SS weather and that was thought to be plenty warm enough for all ordinary purpose. Vph terday at 3 o'clock, the temperature was 01. Today It in expected the weather will be a little wanner, but not much. IS SHORT OF CASH. Not Enough Money to Meet Bills in Associated Charities' Treasury. The report of Treasurer T. J. Kelly, of the Board of Associated Charities, read at last night's meeting, showed a balance on hand of only $33.80, with bills amounting to considerably over that amount and nearly two months' salaries remaining unpaid. Tho members looked at one another rather hopelessly as this report was read, but President Hippie appeared hopeful of securing a few subscriptions In a little while. The report of Mrs. W. B. Duggan, tho board's agent, showed the follow ing results of her work during a month: Applications for relief, PO; found worthy, 28: found not worthy, 20; employment found for 9; lodging found for f: transportation furnished, 7; sent to House of Good Shepherd, 8; sent to St. Patrick's asylum, t; sent to St. Joseph's Foundling Home, 3; sent to Lackawanna hospital, 1; sent to Florence Mission, 2.

A Largo Number of Collieries Closed Down and Moro Will Be Shut To day, It Is Expectod District Board of tho V. M. W. of A. Orders All Firomon W,ho Are Mem bors of That Organization Not to Strike Engineers Decide Not to Do Any Firing, Tlye' threatened strike of the sta tionary firemen employed at the var ious mines throughout this valley be came a reality yesterday morning, when the strike order decided upon ut Sunday's convention went Into effect. It will be impossible to tell the ex tent of the strike or the strength of the llteincn's organization until today, because In a large number of Instances the men did not quit work until 5 o'clock yesterday aflcrnoon, that be ing the time limit decided upon at the meeting held on Monday night. A falily largo number of mines throughout the valley were closed down all day yesterday, however, as the result of the firemen quitting work. The average number of firemen em ployed at a colliery Is only about eight, four to a shift, yet tho refusal to work on the part of this small number yes terday threw out of employment as many as 600 men at some of the mines. The Delaware and Hudson company was the biggest sufferer by yesterday's strike, nearly nil the firemen employed by that corporation being members of the firemen's organization. Kvery mine and colliery operated by the company, both up and down tho val ley, with very few exceptions, was closed down by reason of the strike. The big Coalbrook breaker at Car bondale, which Is supplied with coal from the six or seven mines and drifts In the vicinity of that city was closed down all day. ONLY ONK 1DLK. None of the Lackawanna collieries In or around the city was closed down with the exception ot the Cayuga, In North Scranton, but several of that company's mines down the valley, In cluding the Ullss, Auchlncloss and Woodward, were shut down all day. None of the fourteen collieries of the Scrunton Coal company and Elk Hill Coal and Iron company were closed down, and as far in; could be learned all the Pennsylvania Coal company's mines worked full time. Four of the eight collieries controlled by the Tem ple Iron and Coal company were closed down. It would appear that the firemen aro not going to have the unanimous nnd hearty support of tho mine workers' organization, ns they so confidently expected they would have. About one half of the mine firemen In this val ley are members of the fire-men's or ganization, while the other half nro irombnir of the t'nlted Mine AVorkers of America. Tho firemen who belong to tho Mlno AVorkers' organization are largely cm ployed by the Lackawanna company nnd they were In a quandary yesterday morning as to whether they should go out on strike or not. They were fear ful of going out without the consent of the Mine Workers and the district headquarters of the latter organization In this city was besieged yesterday with inquiries from anxious firemen seeking Information touching on this point. District President Nleholls. realizing the Importance of the matter, called a special meeting of tho district execu tive board to consider It. This meet ing was held nt district headquarters In the Urn nd Central annex In the af ternoon. The board, after a brief dis cussion, decided to Instruct Its officers to notify all the firemen belonging to the Mine Workers' organization who asked for Information that they should remain nt work until ordered to strike by the oillcers of their own organiza tion. rn.KSIDK.NT N1CHOLLS EXPLAINS. President Nleholls, when asked by a Tribune man last night, to explain why this nctlon was taken, stated that under the rules of the Mine AVorkers' organization none of the members could quit work unless ordered to do so by their own officers. The firemen would have no more right to strike without the authority of tho district ofllcers, he said, than would tho dri vers. "Is there any possibility that the dlstilct board may authorize n strike of the firemen who are members of the Mine AVorkers' association"? Mr, Nleholls was asked. "That would not be done without first consulting our national ofllcers." he replied, He would not state whether or not the ndvlco of President Mitchell had been asked for on this point, but remarked with a smile that 1k was In close touch with that of ficial. He refused to say anything in ref erence to a direct question ns to wheth er tho Mine AVorkers at nny colliery would be ordered out In case tho places of tho striking firemen were filled by non-union men, It was claimed at the firemen's head quarters last night that tho effect of the board's action would be the strengthening of tho firemen's organ ization. It was stated that fifty new members had been received Into the local union during the day nnd that a largo percentage of this number were men who Joined after they had heard of tho district board. CLAIM OF STniKKnS. Tho strikers claimed last night that the majority of tho firemen employed by the Lacknwanna company will go out this morning. They say there was a misunderstanding of the strike or der nnd that things will bo righted satisfactorily today. State President Mullahy was not In tho city yesterday, being busy down tho valley, but he is expected to bo hero today to direct local operations. International President Morton, of Chicago, Is nlso expected hero today. If these two ofllclals arrive they will address a meeting of firemen In O'Mal- A Whole Year's Instruction to beginners In Planqforto for 3, under com relent in structors, at the Conservatory, Othor courses.

Action, which will have on Import ant lienrlng ,on the strike, was taken last night nt a special meeting or Local union No. f0, of the National Steam Hoisting Knglneers' associa tion, held In Archbald hall, on AVest Market street. The eighty members present unanimously decided not to do any firing nt any of the collieries or mines and also not to Instruct anybody who might bo sent to take the strikers' places. A committee of tho engineers was sent to the firemen's meeting, which was In progress In O'Malley's hall a few doors away, to nnnounce the ac tion. AVhen tho committee reported, the members were cheered loud nnd long. The strikers' places nt the collieries which were closed down yesterday wore taken In the majority of In stances by the foremen, who did mere ly sufficient firing to keep the fans nnd pumps going. Tho strikers claim that the bosses cannot stand this work very long, as It lequlres a seasoned man, used to extreme heat, espoclnlly dur ing this very warm weather. LACKAAVANNA MEN MEET. Local Vnlon, No. 803, of the Vnlted Mine AVorkeis of America, comprising the engineers, firemen, machinists and pump runners employed nt the Pyne, Taylor, Ilolden, Central, Sloan, Hamp ton, Continental, Archbald and Bcllc vtie collieries and the AVnshhurn street nlr shaft, met In Jayne's hall on Jack son street last evening to take action on the proposed strike. The union is composed of between sixty nnd seventy members, all of whom were represented In person or by proxy. AVIIIInm E. Markwlck pre sided at the meeting and B. T. James was secretary. The local was In ses sion for several hours, during which time the various phases of tho strike were discussed. After due deliberation It was de cided that no action could bo taken In the matter, as the union Is governed by the rules of the First district, which were adopted at the Olyphant convention held on April 10,1901, in which this clause Is Included; "This dbitrlct will not necognlz? any strike or other difficulty that may have been brought about by any local union or Its members, unless they have first notified the Executive Board nnd received their sanction." . Tho men will, therefore, continue work ns usual, unless they aro called out by the district officers of the United Mine Workers. Of the above named collieries the Sloan and Central have been idle for the past three weeks, while repairs are being made, but the englneeis, firemen nnd pump-runners have been nt work as usual. The decision of Local S03 to remain at work practically settles the question as far as the col lieries in the Keyser A'alley are con corned. This union Is not affiliated with the International association of Firemen, although Its members may become Identified with both. D. & H. SL'FFKItKD. Superintendent C. C. Bose, of the coal department of the Delaware and Hudson company, admitted yesterday afternoon to a Tribune man thnt the majority of the collieries of that com pany were closed down ycsteiday ns the result -of the strike. "Yes," said he, "the majority of our mines ore Idle today, as the result of tho strike. There are a few working, here and there, but only a few." AVhen asked to make some statement netting forth tho company's side of the controversy, Mr. Hose said: "I don't sen that there Is any state ment to make. The firemen demnnded an eight-hour day at the present wage rate and this company refused tho de maud, because It considered that It was paying Its firemen enough. Our firemen are now working on a twelve hour shift, on the average, and to put In three eight-hour shlts at the pres ent wage rate, as demanded by the men would mean Just exactly a fifty per cent. Increase in the present wages paid. Tho company does not feel that It can afford to pay this, and so the demand was refused. AVe feel that our firemen nro being decently paid at present. A'c gave them an unsolicited ten per cent. Increase last fall, along with the other men, after the big coal strike." Superintendent Loomls, of the coal department of tho Delaware, Lacka wanna and AA'estern company, denied himself to newspaper men and sent out word through Chief Clerk Tobey that ho had nothing whatever to say nnd thnt ho would give out no Infor mation regarding the number of mines belonging to tho company which were affected yesterday by the strike. O. & AV. ALL KKUIT. General Manager John It, Bryden, of the Ontario and AVestern coal depart ment, said that the fourteen mines un der his control were all working yes terday, not a fireman having gone out. He seemed to think that they would all be working again today and said that cars had been ordered for this morning nt all the mines. At the Olenwood mlno nt Mayfleld where desperate efforts have been made for over a month to free tho mlno of the water that has flooded it, the places of the strikers were taken by foremen and the like. The cutting oft ot the supply of steam from that mine would be a very serious matter at this time. Tho Kingston Coal company, which controls three collieries, granted the demand of the firemen yesterday after noon and they returned to work after being out for only a few hours.

It the mortgagee desired to sell, he must wait until the title has been examined and then possibly lose his purchasers because of some de fect or irregularity in the title, which the purchaser's attorney may dis cover. The mortgagee's policy of this company may be assigned with a bond and mortgage by the simple endorsement of the mortgagee. There is no expense; it is as simple as endorsing a check or a note.
