announcing that hi onmmlwlnn had
been made out. but had not nielved
the signature of the governor, owing to

end of tho room will be walled off and

Tho matter of selecting the cleiks
for the inurt lias not yet been settled.
Judge Vosbutg said List night that he
had no doubt but that the selection of
the cleiks will be accomplished with
out any dllllcult. "Mr. Koch Is a
seasonable man." s-nid the Judge, "and
1 believe he will not Insist upon any
thing that Is unwarranted."
It Is certain that H. T. Knehler will
bo the chief clerk, but there Is no
leitalnty about the man or men who
will fill the other clerkship or cletk
ships, as t ho ease may happen to be.
"Moscow" Han l one of the men

INDUSTRIAL
AND LABOR
ERIE IS MAKING A BIG YARD
AT ELMDALE.
It Will Hold Fifteen Hundred Coal
Cars nnd Many of tho Trains of
tho Wyoming Division Will Be
Made Up There Arrangements
That Have Been Made for the Con
vention of the American Federa
tion of Labor Tho D., L. and W.
Board for Today.
F.hndnle, formerly Taupack, a flag
stntion on the Wyoming division of the
File Railroad, will soon become an
Important place. There are only tho
poio(llco and a small store In sight
nu the train whizzes past Elmdale, but
In 11 short time the semi-pastoral scene
will be changed to one presenting per
manent activity. The Krle company
has completed preparations for estab
lishing n large yard there nnd the con
tractors, Drake & Stratton, have taken
to the plot eight carloads of material
u .ill which tn do tilling nnd excavating.
The part of the ynid containing tho
trac-kt will be a mile long and will bo
situated on the upper side of tho main
Hue. It will extend from Klmd.ile
south through what Is called the rock
cut. This cut, which Is long and deep,
w'M be enlarged to the extent of 150
feet. On the lower side of the main
line, near where the wagon road classes
the railroad at Klmdale, a round-house,
a big water tank and a Y will be built.
The new y.ud will hold between 1,100
and 1,500 coal cars. Trains will be
made up In It and inn direct to Port
Jen Is. It will lessen tho company's
bt'i-liiess at Wlmmeis, wheie a small
ya--' Is now sltua'ed, nnd result In
nu.klng Klmdale tho centre for the

change will please these people, be
cause Klmdale is much mom conven
