INDUSTRIAL JOTTINGS.
Situation at the Mines Where Strikes
Are on Because of the Swinging
Shifts Other Notes.
Tlio employee of the Avonelale, Wood
wuril imd Pettebono collieries, operated
by tlio Delaware, Lacknwnnna , and
"Western company, are still idle,' owing
to tho refusal of the tlreiiicn, who were
employed In the boiler, rooms, to acgept
tho "swine shift" Inaugurated by the
company some time ago.
When the men Quit work, others were
put In their places, and when the old
men Klgnlfled a willingness to return to
work, the company refused to discharge
the men who were employed to take
tho utrikei a' places. On this point the
tibuble hinges.
Already tlio oltuatlon has become
somewhat critical In view of the fact
that tho mlno workers have placed
pickets around the three collieries to
try and Induce the engineers and lire
men who are employed to quit work,
but thus far they have been unsuccess
ful. A few days ago District Superintend
ent Montrose Barnard appealed to the
sheriff of Luzerne county to send depu
ties to the scene, but the sheriff did net
-Al6of u te ly Pu re
BAKINO POWDER CO.. 100 WILLIAM ST., NEW
think the situation made such a, step
necessary and withheld his men for the
present.
There Is a likelihood of serious trouble
arising unless a settlement Is effected
soon. Committeees have waited on
Superintendent Phillips and received
the company's ultimatum, to the effect
that they will not discharge any of the
men now employed, but agree to take
back the strikers in other positions, and
reinstate them as firemen as ,the op
portunities present themselves.
The union men want an eight-hour
shift and all of their firemen reinstated,
but the company insists upon ictaln
ing their present forces. About twenty
five men are on strike, and this small
number is responsible for over 1,500 men
and boys being idle.
The matter was taken up by the dis
trict board of the United Mine Workers
some time ago, but they were appar
ently unable to effect a settlement. This
strike is one of the alleged grievances
which the Shamokln convention Incor
porated in their recent demands.

AN- ANALYSIS OF IMPORTS.
TUB announcement of tho ticaury bureau of
statistics that tho importations of manu
facturers materials hao increased fifty.
sctcn million dollars while tho to
tal imports of nil kinds were Increasing
but sit).onc millions, has nwikeiicd in.
trrcst in tho details of thctc importations.
To supply the information thus asked, tho bu
reau of statistics has prepared u ntatcment chow,
ing tho principal articles which Wkc up tho
cla.-.i known as manufacturers inatcitals, and
comparing tho quantity imported in the present
fiscal jear with the same months of tho preceding
j ear. This comparison by quantities is still more
btriklng than that ihich presented merely alucs,
for it shows a material decrease In tho coat of
tho manufacturing matciial per unit of quantity
in manyascs,
Itaw cotton, sill;, wool, fibres, tobacco, hides,
rubber, wood, tin, copper and chemicals form
the bulk of the importations of raw materials
for use in manufacturing. In nearly all of those
n comparison of tho quantities und values of the
Importations of IIXU witli those of preceding
jcars shows. that the increaso in quantity 'is
greater than tlio increase in value, In raw cot
ton, for example, tho quantity imported In tlio
eight months ending with February was a'!,WH,.
07 pounds against S0,W1,830 pounds in the cor
responding months of lust year; yet the aluo
in the past eight months was $7,100,65.3 against
?l,S13,Ibl In tho eight months of last year. In
other words the quantity more than doubled
while the alue increased but about 05 per cent.
Importations of India rubber were, in the last
eight mouths, 23,33,360 pounds against 33,21,'
760 pounds in tho.sanio months ending with Feb
ruary, 1000; while tho declared ulue of the
iinKHtations of the past eight months va $10,
b'M.W, against 21,474,913 In the same months
ending with February, 1900. In this ease, it will
be observed, tho quantities for the two periods
are almost identical, while the alue In 1903
shows a reduction of about 3J per cent,, as com
pared with that of 1000. Daw silk also shows
decrease In the cost per unit of quantity, Tho
imports of the eight months Just ended were
8,825,511 pounds, against 8,27,8&J pounds In tho
corresponding months ending with February,
1900; but the cost in tho tljht montlis Just
ended waa 120,203,031, against $31,843,002 In the
eight montlis ending with February, 1900. In
this rasa it will bo observed that the quantities
are almost identical, but (bat the cost In the
more recent period is about wo and a half
millions less than that (or the earlier period.
OI tin, (or use in manufacturing tin plate, the
imports of the past eight months wcro 47,452,.
051 pounds, valued, at $11,753,472; while In the
eight months ending with February, 1900, the
importations were 13,738,787 pounds, and the
cost $11,884,985. Id this case the cost in the
two periods was about Identical, but th; quaii
tity la tbe 10OJ period m about 9 per cent,
greater than in that c! 1900. Of tobacco the im
port! (b Jl eight months' were 18,403,751

1900 and 1902.
A comparison of the fls.uios of quantity in the

increase in piactically all imports of manufac

BUSINESS BREVITIES.
A big, stubborn, inconli o crtlble (act standing
over against .ill that pessimists and other proph
ets of cell may saj about the pitvscut status or
tlip immediate future of tho wage-earners in this
country is found in the official repoit from the
superintendent of the state banking department at
Albany showing that the Mings banks of Now
York city alone haee resources on hand to the
amount of $600,000,000 and that they handled in
deposits and pajments in 1901 tho enormous ag
gicgato of $360,234,083. The amount of saWngs
thus accumulated in the banks of the metropolis
would be sufficient to pay the ordinary expendi
tures of the federal gotcrnment for nearly two
years, and would wipe out two-thirds of our ra
tional debt. One institution alone, the Bowery
Savings bank, almost hi the heart of what is
known as the tenement district, increased its
deposits in c.cts of its withdiawals last scar
by ocr four million dollars, halng on hand at
the cud of the jcar 87,150,700, rcpicaeiiting otcr
151,000 depositors, a number exceeding tint of
all the taspajcrs in the city. It 14 difficult to
bellcee that pouity is lajing its hand ery
heavily iipttn a people among whom such a
showing at this can be made. Leslie's Weekly.
In cery department of business the past dec
ade Iih witnessed wonderful chinges, nil in tho
lino of Improicment. Ten jcars ago life insurance-
policies contained scicrc restrictions re
garding the residence and the settled limits of
raol of tho insured. A policy limited the
holder's occupations to thtwo wjiich wcro the
safest. It foibade serWec in tho military, naial,
oi (tic dcpattmeiits, without the company 's con
sent, and the use of intoxicants or narcotics. It
contained many other rcstrictlie, quillfilng
cliuses. One by one, as the outgrowth both
competition and of greater libcraliM on the
part of the companies, fheso restrictions hao
been eliminated, and now some of our gicatrst
companies issue lieics absolutely free from con
ditions as to lublta of life, truel, occupation,
or residence. In fact, some policies are ine-on-tetablo
from the date of issue. In lormer times
it was difficult for a man to understand the terms
of his life insuiuntc contract or policy. Now
they are ah simple us a note of hand und in some
instances much moie easily undctstood. Leslie's
Weekly.
The repoit of tho General Dleclric company for
