PEACE UNTIL FRIDAY.
United Mine Workers' Executive
Board to Meet Then to Pass on
Strike Propositions.
"What is generally supposed to have
been the cause of the closing down of
the Ontario and "Western company's
Pino Brook colliery, lias been, removed
but the colliery still continues to be
tloseil down.
It will lie remembered that on Oct.
1 the union men at the mine held up
tho non-unionists, who numbered about
l.'li, anil endeavored to induce them to
take out union cuJiS AVhilu tlio par
leying win! going on, the time for
starting up arrived, nml when the
union men illil not. respond and tho
non-union men were unablo to respond
to the whistle, a notice was put up
by the superintendent, to the effect
that the colliery would shut down In
dclinltely. Since that time, the non-union men
have all been Induced to take out
union cards and u committee from tho
union waited on the superintendent to
announce that the full force of men
were ready to go to work at any time
the company was ready. The superin
tendent informed them the company
was not ready to starL up just yet, and
there was no tolling when it wouli
lie. General Superintendent Tlrydon
told a Tribune reporter last night that
he could not say definitely when the
mine would lie reopened.
Tlio men are beginning to be firmly
convinced that they are the victims of
a lockout and they want to break it
by calling out the employes of the.
thirteen other collieries of the Ontario
and Western company. A meeting ot
the district executive board of the
United .Mine workers will be held Fri
day, to consider the matter.
At this same meeting, the board will
consider the request for its sanction of
a strike at the Jerniyn, No. 1, in Old
Korge, where, It Is cln lined, the su
perintendent wants to Impose dockage,
although tho men are paid by the day
Instead of by the car.

PREPARING FOR
A LONG FIGHT
THE TROLLEY COMPANY SEEMS
VERY DETERMINED.'
Meu Seem Equally Determined, and
Both Sides Are Confident Com
pany Says It Will Have All the
Men It Wants Before Many Days,
The Men Say the Public Will Not
Patronize the Cars While They Ave
Run by Imported Men A Very
Quiet Day.
There Is no end of evidence to corrob
orate the claim ot the trolley company
that It proposed to win the strike along
the lines now being followed, no mat
ter what expenditure of time, money
it ml energy may be entailed.
Agents are nt work In all parts of
the country securing men who will
coino here nml work permanently. Very
comfortable living quarters tiro being
fitted up over the company's ofllces to
accommodate, the new men until they
can secure hoarding houses. Uniforms
have been ordered for such of the men
as have proven themselves competent.
Lastly, steps have been taken to secure
an Injunction to prevent Interference
with the operation of the road, the mo
ment the necessity for such Is appar
ent. Yesterday, half a dozen new men
came straggling in from different
places, and sought and secured em
ployment. One of these was Charles
Seeley, of Grand Itapids. Mich., who
continued to work when the other men
wont on strike, last December, nml
whom the company was forced to dis
charge to effect a setlleinent of the
strike.
Four colored cooks were Installed In
the new living iittrters ot the Im
ported men, yesterday, and Immense
boxes of provisions were carried into
the kitchen. Hoxes of blankets and
pillows and about twenty-live new cots
Avert delivered at the dance hall on the
top tloor, which has been transformed
Into n dormitory.
OTHERS CO.MlXii.
Another big batch of imports is snld
to be on Its Avay from New York, Avhere
they Avere recruited by the celebrated
Di'uiiiiniiml agency, which supplied the
most of the men Avho helped break the
strikes of Delnwnie. Lackawanna and
Western machinists and car builders.
The company now has about one hun
dred men. and claims that before the
Aveek Is over it Avill have one hundred
more.
Yesterday, according to General Man
ager Slllhnan, the company was oper
ating tAventy-liA'o cars, ten more than
Avere running Sunday. The strikers say
that there were only lifteen cars in
operation yestcrdny, or one less than
the number in operation Sunday.
It Avas claimed by the company ofli
clals that the cats Avere given better
patronage yesterday than on any day
since tho strike began. The men say
that tho patronage, small as it Avas
Saturday, has chvlndled continuously
ever since and that yesterday there
Avere very few persons riding other
than those Avho have been hired to ride
as decoys.
The truth or the matter is that the
cars going out to Green Itldge and
Petersburg and Dunniore carried a
goodly number of passengers Avho Avere
not decoys. They went out a few
blocks from the central part of town
before getting on, and when in-bound,
alighted before reaching the central
city.
NOT NUMEROUS.
The pay passengers were not numer
ous enough, however, to warrnntthe
company in declaring an extra divi
dend. There Avero enough of them,
though, to show that the strikers have
not tis much sympathy from the pub
lic as they had In their preceding
strike, Avhen "everybody Avalked."
The men are basing all their hopes
on the. sympathy of the public. They
figure that unionism is so strong In the
territory served by the Scranton Rall
Avay company that as long as a strike
is on, there avIII be enough persons
shunning the cars to make the com
pany's business unprofitable, and Avhen
the directors of the company tlnd tho
company's financial standing in Jeop
ardy, they will Insist on General Man
ager .Silllnian effecting a settlement
AVitli the men.
A mass meeting for the purpose of
more clearly and forcibly setting before
tho public the position of tho strikers
is being arranged for AVednesday night
in the old armory. Howard Caldwell,
of Philadelphia, an organizer of the
American Federation of Labor, who is
now In Carbondale, is to he one of the
principal speakers. There, Is nlso a
movement afoot, among the strikers, to
have u monster labor parade some
night tills Aveek.
A meeting of the striker was held
yesterday morning In carpenter's hall,
The meeting was addressed by Na
tional Organizer Reeves, President
Shea, Secretary Kcgler and Organizer
Frayne. of the Central Labor union,
The executive committee declared at
the close of the meeting that the out
look for eventual success was brighter
than nt any time since the strike be
mm. FEW STONES THROWN.
A few stones Avero thrown at cars,
in the suburbs, at various times of the
day, but as compared with .Sunday It
was extremely iulet, Not a single case
of disorder worthy of mention Avas re
ported either to the company's or the
strikers' headquarters,
A car that aviis being taken to tho
barn yesterday afternoon at ; o'clock
became stalled on Washington avenue,
near tho Columbus monument by the
tmlley rape catching in a hanger sup
porting the cable, Tho one man avIio
had the car In cluirgo worked for sev
eral minutes in a vain effort lo un
lussi'ii the tangle and then decided to
cut the rope. He had no knlfo and
could not borrow ono from any of the
bystanders, who looked on silently, but
unsyinpalliellcully, Tho car man ap
pealed right and loft for the loan of
a knlfo but no ono would accommo
date him, in some unexplained Avay
Avoid reached the company's ofllces
that a car was in trouble on court
houso sfjuare, and Muperlutendeiit
Pattetfon and Secretary Rcllly has.
teneil thither to Investigate. The cur
was released and Avent on Its way, and
the crowd fiiiuty dlspoised.
A pollen oilk-cr Avho was ono of the
onlookers happened to ho stmullng mi
noticed behind a small group of iir
chins, who were hugely enjoying tho
perplexity of thu "Import," After a
time they became eomevvlmt embold
ened and began to Jibe tho car man.
Finally one of them shouted "scab."
The Avoid Avas no sooner out of his
mouth than tho policeman gavo him a
wlft kick Avlth tho Hut of his foot
that raited him about u foot off the
ground. The youngster scooted, and
there were no more opprobrious names
called.
STRIKERS SATISFIED.
Tho strikers are fully satisfied that
the company In paying a hifRo force
of men and women to act as decoy
passengers, Pickets report positively
that they have detected large num
bers ot thcfit' decoys, A man came to
strike headiiuartnr.t yesterday and
said he had been offered $l.r0 a day to
ride about on the cars. The company
olltclals ridicule the Idea that It has
engaged decoy pas-iengers.
An urchin aviis caught greasing the
tracks on West Lackawanna avenue,
last night, by Special Ofllcei' Steve
Dyer. He was taken to the police sta
tion, und after his name ami address
had been secured, ho aviis allowed to go
home.
David T. Hound, formerly superin
tendent of the Wltkes-Burre, Dallas
and Harvey's Lake Traction company
has been engaged ns an assistant to
Superintendent Patteison or the Scran
ton Hallway company. He s entered
upon his duties yestcrdny. A story
was alloat to the effect that he aviis to
succeed Mr. Sllliman as general man
ager. Mr. .Silllnian says lie Is going
to stuv.
TAKEN TO HILLSIDE HONE
Patrick Gibbons Removed to That
Institution by Order of Court.
Inquest Last Night.
Patrick Gibbons who killed his
wife in South Scranton on Sunday
morning, avIiIIo in a temporary fit of
Insanity, Avas arraigned before Magis
trate Howe yesterday morning and
was committed to the county jail.
Gibbons seemed dazed when taken
out of Ills cell and looked around him
Avlth a vacant, stare as ho aviis
brought Into the court room. When
asked If he knew what lie had been
arrested for, ho mumbled something
unintelligible and closed his eyes. Af
ter the magistrate had announced his
commitment, lie was led back to his
cell, and as the door Avas closed on
him, he Avas heard to say:
"It's an tiAVful thing isn't It? It's
nn uAVful thing."
That the spell is about to pass over
and that he is beginning to realize
the extent of Ills crime, aviis mani
fested yesterday afternoon Avhen Ser
geant Illdgeway asked him If he
Avouldn't like to have a Avnrm dinner.
"No, sir." said he. "I've had enough
to eat today. I've had a great ileal
more to eat than 1 deserve. A great
deal more."
Attorney John Scragg petitioned
court for a bearing yesterday that an
order might be Issued committing Gib
bons to the Hillside Home. Judge
Kelly conducted a hearing in the af
ternoon. Dr. William Haggerty, avIio aviis Gib
bons physician for many years, tes
tified that lie has suffered from period
leal attacks of Insanity for many
years. It Avas a peculiar form ot in
sanity, he said, as tho patient was per
fectly rational between the attacks. He
saAV him last AVednesday and at that
time could see that nn attack Avas
coming on. He examined him at 4
o'clock on Sunday afternoon, and at
that time lie was uiuiuestionably in
sane. It Avould not be right to im
prison him in the county Jail, he said.
Dr. Michael Quinn testified that be
hud examined Gibbons on Sunday af
ternoon and said that he Avas insane
at that time. Patrolman George Jones
said he had been told by Mrs. Gibbons
last Friday thnt her husband ivus act
ing queer and said that lie had
kept an eye on the place on Friday
and Saturday. He described Gibbons'
appearance on Sunday morning. The
cominoiiAvcalth Avas ropreson'd at the
hearing by District Attorney Lewis.
Judge Kelly issued an order for the
commitment of tho prisoner to the.
Hillside Home and he Avas taken there
last night.
An inquest in the case Avas conduct
ed last night by Coroner Roberts, in
tho Alder street police station. The
jurors. Chiirles Arinbrust, Fred Huos
ter, Oscar Helrlegel. John Trester,
James Quinnan and George Jones, ren
dered the folIoAving verdict:
"We, the undersigned jury, find that
Mrs. ISridcet Gibbons, of 933 Cedar
avenue, city of Scranton, Lackawanna
county, Pa., came to her death on Oct.
tl, between the hours of 7 and fl a. in,,
as a result of blows indicted by her
husband, Patrick Gibbons, wlilh suf
fering from temporary insanity."
The statement made in tho Republi
can yesterday that Gibbons Avas dis
charged from the Hillside Homo three
months ago, Ai-as incorrect. He aviis
discharged from that institution the
last time on March :il, 1S97.

A TALK BY
C. E. HURLBURT
CHRISTIAN WORKER SPOKE
AT Y, M. C. A. MEETING.
He Is Former State Secretary of the
Association, and Is About tb Leave
for the Dark Continent to Cany
the Gospel Delivered a Brief Ad
dress on tho First Chapter of St.
John, Declaring' That Every Man
Is Sent of God to Cony the Light
of Life and Spread It.
Charles E, Httrlburt, of Philadelphia,
former slate secretary of the Young
Men's Christian association, delivered
nit address last night at the men's
meeting In tho association rooms Hint
aviis brimful of Christian enthusiasm
and of earnest encouragement to the
Christian workers) he Avns addressing.
.Mr. Hurlburt leaves in tt few weeks
to carry the gospel Into the Interior of
the Congo Free State, Africa, and his
address last nlcht aviis one of the last
ho will make In tills country prior to
his departure. There are, fluleed, few
Christian workers among tin laity In
this country who are capable of ex
pounding gospel truths Avlth as much
earnestness und crystal clearness as
Mr. Hurlburt is.
Perhaps the most Impressive thing
about Mr. Hurlburt Is his voice. Fcav
actors there are who possess the won
derful vocal mechanism of Mr. Hurl
burl. A person hearing him speak In
the ordinary tone which lie adopts dur
ing the principal part of his talks finds
himself startled AVhen he thunders out
an Impressive sentence In deep tones,
that almost seem to shake the room.
TEXT HE TOOK.
He spoke for about half an hour last
night on the first chapter of the gospel
according to St. John, beginning with.
"In Iho beginning aviis the Word and
the Word Avas with God, and the Word
aviis God." Printed excerpts cannot be
gin to give an idea of the Intensity of
Mr. Hurlburt's conviction or of the
wonderful sincerity expressed In his
voice and gesture. A feiv of the things
he said are gl-en below:
"I am going In a foAv iveeks to bear
some of that Light of Life of Avhich
John speaks, into the depth of the
Dark Continent, but I Avant each and
every man of you to remember that
there is just as deep, dense darkness
fiere In Scranton as there is in any
grass-thatched hut among the bushes
on the hillsides of far-off Africa.
"When you are surrounded by the
shadows of temptation, of loneliness, of
defeat or of discouragement, don't
think that the sun has set for you, but
remember the Avoids of the apostle and
realize that it is all because you can't
comprehend tire Light of Life.
"As surely as John Avas a man sent
of God to the Avevld, so are you,
George, Henry, James or Avhatever
your name may be, sent of God to
Scranton Uii-lns souls Into the king
dom ot Christ. Tt is the greatest honor
that can bo conferred upon a human
being this being sent as u messenger
front the court, of heaA'cn to bring word
of the Light to the darkness, and sin
and need of tills Avorld.
NOT THE LIGHT.
"Remember, my friends, that you are
not the Light, but merely the carriers
of the Light. Remember how quick
John aviis to say, 'There Avas a man
sent of God, avIiosc name A-as John.
Ho was not. that Light, but Avas sent
to bear witness of that Light.' Re
member that avc are but humble in
struments in the hands of God. Re
member that aa-o are but as a A-oice of
one crying in the wilderness."
After bis talk, those present crowded
about Mr. Hurlburt and bade him God
speed on his journey to the Avllds of
the Interior of Africa.
A SERIOUS OFFENSE.
Thomas Smith May Re Arrested for
Obstructing- the Mails.
It aviis learned yesterday that Inspec
tor Gorman, of the postal department,
Is making an investigation preparatory
to the arrest of Thomas Smith, the
teamster, avIio purposely obstructed a
mall car on LackaAvanuii avenue a 1'oav
days ago.
If the facts warrant It, Smith will bo
arrested on the charge of obstructing
the United State mails, ivhlch is a most
serious offense.
