INDUSTRIAL

REVIEW OF THE ANTHRACITE
SITUATION.
Striko Would Havo Been Inovltablo,
Says tho Engineering and Mining
Journal, If tho Miners Insisted on
tho Demands of tho Shamokln
Convention Trodo Inactive, Pend
ing tho Settlement of tho Labor
Troubles The Effect of Incroaaed
Wages on Cost of Mining.
tftic Engineering nnd Mining Jour
nal's current Isftue has tills to say on
the anthracite situation:
"Tho probability of a general striko
nt tho anthracite mines Is) tho matter
of most Interest this week. The reso
lutions passed at the Shumokln con
vention by representatives of the
United Mine "Workers were of a char
acter that the great producing com
panies would not enro to grant. In fact,
If the convention had decided that the
oflli'lnls of the mine workers should
make a determined stand for the de
mands, a strike would have been Inevit
able. As It Is, the published state
ments of Mr. Mitchell show a concilia
tory attitude and lead to the sus
picion that the convention's resolutions
usktd a great deal more than the most
sanguine delegate present really ex
pected to get. The National Civic
Federation, at Mr. Mitchell's request,
Is now acting as Intermediary between
the operators and tho miners, and
everything Indicates that the danger of
it general strike is not great. In fact,
pome people In tho trade hint that
there are political motives back of the
passage of the resolutions at Shamo
kln and tho calling In of the Civic Fed
eration. Be this as it may, a long
drawn strike would seriously affect
miners, operators and tho public, and
a peaceful settlement of points in dis
pute is to be desired on all accounts.
"Trade In all territories, pending the
settlement of the threatened labor dis
turbances, Is not especially active.
Some consumers, particularly those
along the seaboard using steam sizes,
have been ordering in excess of present
needs in fear of a strike. Most large
dealers, however, .11 e not buying more
coal than Is necessary, feeling that as
i-oon as the labor outlook clears the
companies will give notice of a reduc
tion of prices to spring buyers.
"In tho Northwest, with the opening
of Lake navigation probably but two
weeks away, the demand for coal con
tinues fairly active. The supplies on
clock at the opening of navigation will
be small. In Chicago territory, trade
I? quiet. There will be a considerable
tonnage on the docks when navigation
opens. Arrivals of all-rail coal are
light, but owing to the reduced de
mand there is no shortage. Along the
lower lakes and in Canadian territory
the market is pretty firm. Little coal
is anhing, but enough for all needs.
"In the line trade farther East and
along the Atlantic seaboard, trade is
rather quiet. The uncertainty over the
lubor situation Is the only disturbing
factor. If, as is anticipated, a reduc
tion of fJOc per ton is made, as soon
as it is certain that there will be no
strike, there will no doubt be a lepeti
tlon of the lively ordering of last
spring. A year's experience has shown
dcalcis that they have nothing to
gain by delaying orders and that the
anthiaclte trade Is no longer what it
was before Mr. Morgan's strong hands
took control."
Effect of Increased Wages.
"Wo have now the reports of three
anthracite coal companies for 1901,
which may servo to show what effect
,vthe increase in wages last year had
upon the cost of coal. These reports
give the total expense of mining nnd
preparing coal per ton as below, for
, two years past:

"While the- results, In 1901 were very
near together, the changes show a
considerable dlveigence, which Indi
cates that the increase;: were not all
the result of the higher wages paid.
Thus, tho Lehigh Coal and Navigation
company had to meet considerable ex
penses duo to damages done some of
lis collieries by Hood: while the Dela
ware and Hudson suffeied In the same
way. On the other hand, the Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western insti
tuted some improvements and econo
mies which partly offset the higher
wage cost, The conclusion to be drawn
Js that the resulting Increase in cost
was not large; In all probability, not
over five cents a ton at the outside."

It's Own Telephone System.
L. I. Foley, superintendent of the
telegraph department of tho Lacka

Tho system has never been used by
the Lackawanna, hut Is In successful

telephone service will bo distinct from
thoso used for telegraphing.
The object of Installing tho system

A Railroad Diplomat.
Tho appointment of W. a. Hosier to
tho charge of tho Central Railroad of
Now Jersey, has taken away from the
Heading railroad one of tho most
promising ofllclals who haB ever been
connected with that road, and Presi
dent Bacr, In selecting General Mana
ger Hosier for the responsible head
directorship of the Heading's recently
acquired new property, undoubtedly
had In mind Mr. Hosier's recognized
ability to harmonize conflicting Inter
ests and bring not only the employes
into a harmonious organization as a
unit, but at tho same time create an
esprit de corps apparently quite un
known In eastern railroading prior to
this western man's coming to this sec
tion, nnd, as well, also to bring about
a better feeling of the general public
toward tho railroad company.
Mr. Hosier will not only always be
found prompt to treat his employes
with courtesy, but tho general public
who do not use his road, nnd especial
ly the patrons who do, will ever find
him with his hand extended to meet
everyone half way with a manly fel
lowship that not only commands re
spect, but quickly makes everyone his
warm admirer and willing to assist,
under his direction, In working for the
general good. Mr. Besler not only Is a
model railroader, but a trade encour
ager; for he makes It a point to Inter
est himself in the local affairs and
business Industries of every locality
situated along its line, and every agent
is virtually made a reporter, who must
dally transmit to headquarters the
news Items of all matters which will
help along tho company's business or
which the company can help along by
offering its assistance to the local peo
ple. The latch string of Mr. Hosier's
ofllce always hangs on the outside, and
he is invitingly accessible to the em
ploye, the patron and tho Information
seeker. Pottsvillo Republican.

ARBITRATION" IN" AUSTRALIA.
Hopeful Speeches at a Picnic of the
Industrial Unions,
By Kuluslve Wire bom The Associated. Preni.
Sydney, N, S. W March 30, The
compulsory Industrial arbitration court,
whose membership includes representa
tives of employers and employes, which
was recently established here, will open
In April,
Speaking today at a plcnlo which the
government tendered to the delegates
of the industrial unions, Justice Cohen,
a member of the arbitration court, ex
pressed the opinion that the court's
establishment would prove to be a mes
sage of peace to the Industrial world.
Labor leaders spoke in a similar strain.
The attorney general, Uernard Ring
rose Wise, urged the employes not to
put the arbitration act to afull strain
immediately, but to be content to ask
the court to deal with the most im
portant questions, such as the limita
tion of trio hours of labor und child

IN MEMORY OF THE IiATE AM
DROSE MULIiEY.
A Tablet Unveiled In tho Providence
M. E. Church Yesterday Sormon
by Rev. George A. Cure Doallng
with Dead Man's Christian Life.
Plro Destroyed the Residence of
David Lewis, on Putnam Strcot,
Yesterday Morning Easter In tho
Churches Other Newn Note3,
A tablet In memory ot tho lato Am
brose Mulley, tho gift of tho official
board of tho Providence Methodist
Episcopal church, was unveiled yester
day In that edifice with appropriate ex
ercises, in tho presence of a large gath
ering. The exercises were opened with
a brief address by Rev. Oeorge A. Cure,
pastor of tho church, who chose for his
text Paul's words spoken of Abel: "He
being dead yet speaketh," Hebrews,
11:1.
After an interesting sketch of tho
world's first martyr, commended by the
Savior as being "righteous" and cata
logued by Him nmong the prophets, the
sermon was elaborated atound tho fol
lowing traits of character, through
which Abel Is still speaking: (1) His
faith; (2) his blameless life: (3) his
work for the salvation of others, as
seen In his prophetic ofilco; (1) His suf
fering for others. The part of his ad
dress bearing directly upon the me
morial was In the following words:
The tablet umclled today In honor ol our de
patted brother Is, perhaps the most delicate
tribute of respect a church might make to ono
oMta members Mr. Mulley belonged to thU
1-I1un.il.. Peep .19 wai the sonow of hU
Immediate family when death came, the
affliction wai not limited to the family
circle, for Mi. Mulley belonged to the
church as truly it to them. In the tdrH.cn
home be was not .1 boarder simply; but the
thoughtful, iifTcctioate, srtt-.icrifleing husband
and father. Xor u.ts he merely a member of the
Providence -Methodist Kpiscopal church. He be
longed to it, BtUng fieely Ms best thinking, his
true affection, hU uiiitintcd oifeilngs. So jou
will undeistand tli.it thii beautiful tribute is
not go Hindi a memorial to Mr. Mulley the hus
band and father priceless as it thoulil be to the
member of Ids family but rather it tpcaks of
Mi. Mullry the Christian a brother to the older
member", .111 honoied father to the jounger.
Xor is Mr. Mulley's the only name worthy (0
be written on maiblc and given honored places
lit this 100111. When the homesick and weaiy
soldiers f,ing "Home, Sweet Home," there ore
as many homes pictured in memory as there are
singers. So, when the Christian soldiers gather
ing here for worship, picsed down with life's
burdens and longing for the sight of faces eetn
only in the home land, shall look upon th's
memoiial, we hope It may recall to them not
only the stanch and manly form who rould al
wajs be found in his pew, near the tablet, but
also their own sainted dead, as sure lo be in
their places, as true in their loc to God, as
generous in their s icriflc,cs.
Thus would the officers of jour church, in plac
ing here this beautiful memorial in marble, ecr
keep in rcmembi aoce the bright spirits who hae
gben this church Ha honoied history. Of each
of them we can affirm Paul's wolds about Abel:
"lie .being dead yet speiketh." Like him, they
speak through an unshaken faith, through right
eous Hies, through labors foi the sanation of
otbeis; and if, unlile him, they did nit seal Hieir
faith with their blood, their loving sacrifices
were as precious in Cod's sight as "the blood of
righteous Abel."
After Mr. Cure's address, Mr. J. T."
Nyhart, representing the officers of the
church, stepped forward and, with a
few well chosen words, unveiled the
tablet. It stands in tho wall near the
pew occupied by Mr. Mulley so many
years. The veil was an artistic fabric
of smllax and flowers. Following is
the Inscription:

EUED OIL A SUCCESS.
Consul Phillips, at Cardiff, "Wales,
Sends Interesting' Facts,
from the New York Times.
Daniel T. Phillips, United States con
sul at Cardiff, Wales, In a leport on
fuel oil, says:
"1 venture to prognosticate that this
new combustible Is destined ere long to
revolutionize tho coal markets of tho
world. The abnormal cost of steam
coal In Great Britain Is calculated to
hasten this revolution. The Dutch
Steamship company uses this fuel In
Its boats; the Hamburg-American Line
has built four now steamers adapted
for oil fuel, and run them In tho East
ern trade with marked success: tho
North German Loyd hns two local
steamers using oil: the East Asiatic
company of Copenhagen employs this
fuel In Its local boats, and is building
two ocean-going steamers with the In
tention of using It; nnd tho China
Mutual is preparing three boats for tho
employment of oil. The advantages
aro said to be:
"First The saving of labor Is large;
there will be no nslies to hoist over
board after each watch: no need of
stokintr.
"Second Fewer deckhands will be
needed, as the dirt caused by coal
shoveling will he done awav with.
"Third Under proper combustion no
smoke will be generated; every atom ot
oil Is of calorific value; there Is no resi
due. "Fourth The fuel may bo stored In
the double bottom of a ship, tho fort
peak, afterpeak, and tanks under the
engine room, thus occupying space not
utillznblc In any other way.
"Fifth Tlie oil fuel has a higher con
centration of heat for manufacturing
than can be, obtained with coal.
"The Great Eastern railway, In this
country, hns already a large number o
locomotives using this fuel. They say
that by its use steam Is more easily
produced and is maintained up the
steepest gradients, and great economy
is effected by reducing the supply ot
oil when descending or remaining sta
tionary; the life of the boilers is pro
longed; the nuisance of smoke and the
danger of sparks to sui rounding prop
erty ore entirely obviated, and the roll
ing stock generally is kept In a state
of cleanliness which is Impossible on a
line where coal is used."

SCRANTON'S LEADINQ FURNITURE STOKE.
Once a Cos
Always One
This is one of the secrets in attaining business
success that we have always kept before us. Qual
ity has been the first consideration at all times.
The customer who does not find the goods
they have bought coming up to their expectations
will always be dissatisfied, no matter how low the
price paid may have been.
When the goods purchased however were
better than was expected and more than size up to
the promises made by the salesmen, then you have
made a life long customer.
In purchasing our stock we have never bought
a dollar's worth of goods that we did not honestly
believe, when sold, would add more satisfied cus
tomers to our trade.
