somewhat of a parliamentarian his ser

City Assessor, Kilns Morris Is the old
est city otllelal In this city nt present
but despite this fact he is one of the
most assiduous members In the muni
cipal building. Theto are certain sen
sons of the year when the ns'seasors
have Utile work to do, except furnish
Information to Inquiring taxpayers.
This does not deter Mr. Morris from
being on hand every day In the week. It
Is said that since he assumed office
In April, 1901, ho hns not been away
from the office a single day except be
cause of Illness.
Sir, Monls Is a man of Independent
means and It was a surprise to many
of his friends when ho agreed to ac
cept the appointment as assessor tend
ered to him by former Recorder Molr.
Ho Is eminently lilted for the place
because of his wide knowledge of pro
perty values in this city. He Is an ex
tensive property owner himself nnd
long years of real estate dealing have
given him a knowledge of values that
is considered second to none In the city.
When the members of the board were
out making the assessment for the
present flscnl year and there was a dif
ference of opinion between them, the
question at Issue was- generally put
"up to Morris" and his decision was
allowed to govern.

BLUE RIDGE BREAKER
DESTROYED BY FIRE
Thomas Kemerer, the Fireman, Is
Suppose to Have Peiished
While trying to Escape.
The Itlue Itidge bieaker at Peckvllle,
owned by the Scranton Coal company,
caught lire in u mysterious way yester
day afternoon at 2.30 o'clock and In a
very short time was burned to the
ground. The llreman, Thomas Kemer
er who was the only person about
the pluce at the time cannot be found
and it feared that he has perished in
the (lames.
The Blue Itidge was lecently purchas
ed by the Sernnton L'oal company and
the breaker abandoned. The coal from
the top and only remaining vein was
carried up through the shaft and from
there conveyed by n small locomotive
to the Ontario colliery wheio It was
prepared for use. When It became ap
parent that Fireman Kenan ur must
have peiished, two very plausible
theories wei'o at once advanced, One
was that he had .gone up into the
breaker when he discovered It nlire to
save it If he could, us there weie bar
rels of water located In dllfeient places
for such an emeiKency, and was over
come by the smoke and smothering
was burned.
Acting on the other theory, Mine
Foicmen Smith, Allen and Blown, went
Mown into the mine and bnirnn a
seal ch for him as It was known to be
part of his duty on Sunday to feed
the four mules which are kept theie.
Two of the mules were dead and the
others nearly s-o. Only partly consum
ed feed was found In the maugeis,
showing that they hail Just been fed,
A seiuch of the workings wan then
made and the only possible places
where ho might have wandered and
been lost was so full of black damp
that the party neaUy overcome, had lo
return convinced' that tho un
fiirtuniile llreman could not have peu
attateil thus far. Boturnlntr to the
opening in tho shaft, tho drend thought
In tho minds of each had now become
ceitaluty and this was that on dis
covering tho lire Kemerer knowing that
the distance fropi the vein to tho top
of tho shaft was only thlrty-llvo feet,
believed that hu could climb tho ladder
nt tho sldo of thu shaft and escape
without danger, but that tho burning
timbers fell while he was struggling
upward and carried him crashing
down tho shuft a hundred feet through
the wooden covering of iho abandoned
sump with the charred timbers of tho
breaker on ton of him,
things of men nre now removing tho
timbers and It Is believed that by tho
this afternoon they will bo able to drag
tho sumn. Kemerer Is a married man
with u wife and child,
Tho lire was it llerco one while It lust
ed and began In the upper putt of tho
breaker. Besides the Wilson Hose
company from Peckvllle the Olyphant
and Prlcebuig companies were called
to the scene. There are no theories or
uny evidence as to how tho flto started.
It was Hrst thought to have been front
forest fires, but there were no flres In
the immedlnto vicinity. The loss will
umouut to ubout (23,000,

H Is ns good as certain that there
will be no work done In tho mines
of the Lncknwnnnn region today. In
tho Jlrst place tho miners will not
report for work, and, In tho second
place, lr they did, they would llnd no
work lo do.
The order for a- temporary suspen
sion of work will be religiously obeyed.
At some of tho collieries the men re
moved their tools at noon Saturday.
Saturday afternoon the superinten
dents of the local compalnes had n
meeting in this city, and agreed to
make no effort to operate. The meet
ing was attended by' General Manager
E. E. Loomls nnd General Superinten
dent Beese A. Phillips, of the D. L. &
W. company; AV. A. May, general
manager of tho Erie's coal deuart
inent; (J. C. Bose, general superinten
dent of the Delaware and Hudson coal
department and others.
It was stated positively yesterday,
by one ot those at the meeting that
all agreed to shut down tho colllerleM
Indefnltcly, beginning with Monday
morning. It was given out from the
Delaware. Lackawanna. & Western
ofllees, however, that the whistles
would be blown nt Its collieries, and
that vigorous attempts would be made
to operate the wnsherles. At the
Delaware & Hudson company's ofllees,
It was slated that efforts would bo
made to operate some of the wnsherles.
The Erie company will not attempt to
run even Its wnsherles.
Repair Shops Closed.
The Erie company has ordered its
repair shops, at Dunmore, closed down
Indefinitely. Two hundred men will
be thrown idle, The Lackawanna
railroad laid off all but a few of Its
coal crews and the other companies
propose to do likewise. '
There was a report current, yester
day that the companies Intended to
post notices at all their collieries an
nouncing that any man who did not
report for work this morning should
consider himself no longer in the em
ploy of the company nnd take out
his tools. The companies denied that
such notices would be posted this
morning. It would not be stated
whether or not notices to this effect
would appear later.
Everything depends on the meetings
to be held today by the locals. The
order of tho district oflleers calling
tho strike nnd tho -Wednesday con
vention, contained a clause-, advising
that the locals meet Monday afternoon
elect delegates to the Hnzleton con
vention and linstruct them ns to
whether or not they should vote to
make the temporary strike permanent,
or to continue work under the present
conditions.
Tho sentiment of the community and
the most thoughtful of the miners is
unquestionably opposed to a. strike nt
this time. It is felt that the com
panies are anxious for a conflict and
that It would be inopportune tp engage
them now, when they are seemingly so
well prepared, and when the miners
have shown such u decided reluctance
to entering upon a conflict.
Not Trying to Prevent It.
Those of the miners who oppose a
continuance of tho suspension ot work
will use as one of their chief argu
ments the significant fact that the
bosses are doing absolutely nothing to
discourage the men from striking,
while at the same time, relatively In
the last strike, these same bosses
worked day and night soliciting their
men to continue at work.
It will also be argued by tho anti
strike men that while It may be true
that a refusal now to accept what Is
so generously considered a challenge
from the operators, may detract some
from the prestige of the union. It Is,
on the other hand, an absolute, fact
that n defeat after a prolonged strike,
would possibly, yes piobably destroy
the union.
The pro-strike men will argue that
the miners can not lose, because a
strike will cause a coal famine, whlcfc
can not be relieved except by the com
panies acceding lo the men's terms. It
may necessitate a long struggle, sure
ly. one of several months, but even this,
with all Its attendant hardships, they
will argue, would be better than a
withdrawal of the strike order.
Interesting speculation Is born of the
fact that the very men who control
the mining industry the Morgan Inter
est will before many days control the
shipping of tho Atlantic. Should the
strike come, and It should happen that
the strikers succeeded In shutting off
soft coal from the hard coal markets,
Is It not possible, this speculation sug
gests, that the Morgan licet would bo
need to bring In from England, Nova
Scotia nnd the continent sufllclent hard
coal to at least prevent what could be
teimcd it famine?
No Importing of Coal.
Prchldeit Mitchell declares he has lit
tle fear from this possibility. Ho points
to tho fact that tho United States con
tinually exports coal, and claims it
would bo hardly HUoly that any con
siderable quantity or coal could bo se
cured abroad, even In nn emergency.
To got any coal from Nova Scotia, ho
says Is un Impossibility, for the United
States annually Bends from ten to fif
teen million tons to supply Canada,
How President Mitchell views tho
question at whether or not It Is de
rlvablo to coptlnuo the strike, up one
has as yet been able lo fathom, It Is
the general belief, however, that he
considers It inadvisable, and that ho Is
so confirmed In this opinion thot, If
neccssaryi he will take nn open stand
tor a postponement of hostilities to
some more opportune season, It Is be
lieved that whilo he wants that the
miners themselves shall decide, by
what is practically a direct voto,
whether or not they will enter upon a
war, ho hopes that tho vote will be

against such a course. This belief ob
tultw very genet nlly with the miners
anil will exert it big Inflttenfe on thu
voto among Ihu locnls today.
There Is a great danger that even If
the best Judgment ot the more Intelli
gent mid comiorvntlvo miners Is for it
withdrawal of Iho strike order, their
judgment will not prevail. Saturday,
nt noon, tho driver hoys nt the I-rg-gelt's
Creek colliery quit work, by way
of nntlelpatlng iho strike order, and
compelled thu closing down of the
works. Mine boys, however, have only
hulf n vote, and, while lit the lunjorlly
In Kimr of the locals, do not control
many ot them, when It comes to tt
voto.
Still in the City.
PifPldcnt Mitchell and District Presi
dents Nlcliolli and (Kahy are still In
the city nnd had n number of Informal
vjiiferences Saturday and yesterday.
The committeemen from out of town
went homo Saturday, nfter a brief
morning session. Nothing wns given
out concerning tho proceedings of this
session, lurtlier than that only routine
business was transacted.
President Mitchell nnd District Presi
dent Fnliy will remain hero until to
morrow allernoon, and accompany the
Serunton delegation, to Itnzlelnu. Presi
dent Mitchell will spend the Interim in
attending to his correspondence. It Is
understood ho does not look with much
confidence on tho hope of any further
Intervention, or anything else that will
woik from thu outside for tho preven
tion of the continuance ot the strike.
It tho strike continues, he will make his
hendqunrters at Ilazluton.
At S o'clock mass In the Cathedral
yesterday morning, Bishop Hobnn
spoke briefly on tho strike and nsked
the congregation to pray that its pro
longation might bo averted.
He pointed out that a strike meant
great hardships to the strikers, demor
alization of business Interest, and pos
sible bloodshed. He declared that the
companies should come to a proper
realization of tho arduous work tho
miner Is compelled to do, the skill re
qithcd of him In doing It, nnd the dan
ger lie Is constantly exposed to in his
daily toll. He would not, hu said, ven
ture, to even suggest how the miners
ought to vote. He would pray, how
ever, that God would enlighten them to
do what was for the best.
Meetings of Locals.

Situation at Pittston.
Plttston. Ph., May 11. The strike or
der will be obeyed to tho letter here
Moaday'mornirig, even by almost all of
those mine employes who have not yet
become members of the union. In fact,
tho strike Is already in force, for few
collieries In this district worked more
than u half day yesterday.
For the past week or more the minors
have curtailed their purchases of sup
plies, in anticipation of a stilke order,
and many ot them had not enough oil
and powder ,to hold out a full day Sat
urday and therefore worked only a few
hours. At Nos. S, 9 nnd 10 collieries of
the Erie company, the driver boys quit
work at 10 o'clock, throwing those
mines Into Idleness. The companies
also evidenced an intention to curtail
expenses, and at several collieries, such
men as locomotive engineers and com
pany hands, who are usually kept at
work during temporary idleness, were
notified to cease work until further or
ders. Oflicials at the collieries have
been interviewing the firemen, pump
runners and engineers during the past
week, to ascertain just how many of
them would stay with the company In
case of strike. Endeavors were made
to Induce them to sign agreements to
remain at work, but a majority of tho
men refused to do so.
