Do Not Propose to Allow Their Col lterles to Lie Idle for An Indefinite length of Time Committee of Foreign-speaking Mine Workers Publish a Statement to the Effect That Slavs, Poles and Luthanlans Will Go Buck to Work How the Districts Voted. One of the biggest coal men In this region stated yesterday unreservedly nnd without equivocation, that It Is not the purpose of the operators to allow thxlr collieries to be Idle for an Indefi nite length of time, lie said: "It may he that 110 move will be made for u mouth possibly six weeks, or a little longer, but there will bo no such thing ns a tie-up for hulf-u-year." "How will the collieries be manned?" was asked. "Uy means which have been, already, perfected. You must remember we have confidently expected iu strike for a year and n half. We knew this thing was coming and we have ucted accord ingly." Another coal man, who Is at the head of one of the largest companies, admitted that, the operators had plans nil uriangcrt for working their collier ies In due time, but would not put them In execution until It was seen whether or not the strikers were really determined on u long struggle. "We will await developments for a while," he concluded, "but you can rest as sured we will not allow our mines to remain Idle any great length of time. It won't be a waiting game ns far as tho companies are concerned," WAITED UPON' SUPERINTENDENT Yestenlay morning three non-English speaking mine workers, representing themselves as n committee of the Po lish and Llthunlnn miners, waited on General Superintendent Reese A. Phil lips, of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western company and asked him If he would open up the mines If the men wanted to go back to work. Mr. Phillips inquired of them as to who they were and what they repre sented and learned that they were three men from three different mines on the West Side and that they were appointed at a meeting the night before which was attended by 300 of their country people. Superintendent Phillips told them he would open up collieries as fast as men came forward to man them, and that the first come would get the best places. The committee stated that a meeting was to be called for today and that by Monday there would be thous ands of men on hand willing to go to woik. Before leaving, the committee exhibited a letter which It was pro posed should be published In 'the pap ers. The notice was delivered to the newspaper offices by the committee. It reads as follows: Sct.ir.ton, Jtjy i.'., 1002. 1'ilHnr of Hie ScMiilon Tribune: Pea) Mi Will jou Untlly insert ilie-e few lines In a rotiie.ilile pair of our paper?

One was John Kesenilz, of the Capouse colliery; William Woisz ner, of the Diamond, and Frank Mes eheski, of the Central. Whether or not the committee repre sents any very general sentiment is all conjecture, Polish and Lithuanian mer chants, who were interviewed yester day, said tho feeling among their peo ple is that there should not have been a strike. DIDN'T WANT STRIKE. "I have had men come into my stoie, today, crying over the strike," said one of them yesterday. "They complain that the English miner caused the strike and blamed it on the foreigners. If a break Is made, I expect to see the foreigners flock back to Ihe mines." Many of the foreign mine workers buy their groceries themselves and pay a boarding boss so much a month for cooking and serving their meals. Tho usual charge is $3 a month, which In cludes lodging. Some have saved money; others have big balances on their store books. These latter will not bo carried on credit and must get work, One nierchnnt, to whom a Tribune re porter spoke yesteiduy, told that one ot his customers, who owed a big balance, ordeied three hams last Wednesday. The merchant sent him one. District Committeeman Robert Js. Courtrlght, when spoken to last night regarding the threatened bieak of the foreigners, said: "There Is nothing to it. That alleged labor union has been proven a myth, All It consists of Is a few hirelings of the compaiilescntteied hero and there, We have thoroughly Investigated it and cm not llnd that they over held a single meeting. The foreign-speaking mine workers are the most steadfast members of the union. Wo w'on't wony any about a break from that quarter," President Nleholls was the only one of the Scranton delegation who wad found willing to say a word one way or the other, on their arrival homo from tho convention.

What the Forepnugh and Sells Brothers Show Has to Offer. It Is impossible to name all the fea tures of a great combination of two great shows such as the Adam Fore paugh and Sells Brothers Enormous Shows United without consuming far more space than Is at command heie. Briefly as is possible some of the lead ing features arc given with the Idea to convey at least some Idea of their extraordinary magnitude this year. Although distinctly a circus in all that the word legitimately Implies It may be as well to start off with their great military features, the Illinois In fantry that has inarched throughout Europe carrying aloft tho flag of the free and justly earning the title, "The Best Drilled Soldiers in tho World" the Aurora Zouaves. Then come the twenty-three champion bareback rid ers of the world, for whom the man agement makes the claim seriously that no other show .has tho equal to any one of them, nnd Including Dallie Julian, the only living lady somersault rider, and Emma Stickney, the lovely daughter of the famous "Apollo Belve dere of the Arena," Robert Stickney, under whose watchful eye she rides at every performance. She Is regarded as the greatest whirlwind rider of her sex. Minting, the Marvel, Is Indisputably the world's very greatest athlete and only unleycllBt who can and does ride up and down a high spiral tower on the single wheel of a bicycle. Three great troupes ot French acrobats are the five Do Luccas, the four La Montes and the live St. Leon, an nggregatc of acro batic talent such as has never been seen before In America. The Jackson family cycling septette are the greatest troupe of bicycle riders, trick and fancy, In the world. The quartette ot cakewalklng horses are the best-trained horses in the world and their performance is beyond nil comparison the prettiest ever done by horses. The sensational Starr, the Shooting Star, rides down a seventy nine foot ladder from the top of the tent upon an ordinary bicycle. Four great herds of elephants Include the famous Forepaugh dancing pachy derms. The ten Potters give the great est aeilal act on earth, and the title Is no mere figure of speech but a solid fact, The contingent of clowns Is the largest and merriest ever seen, nnd In all the standard features ot the circus these shows have the very best of their respective kinds, All sorts of trained animals are also on tho piogramtne; a superb purade ushers In the day; a mammoth menngerlo Is the beginning of an exhibition that all ought to see when It 'exhibits here on Tuesday, May SO. A HARD TUSSLE. Fred Schlnck Grvo Two Constables a Lively Time, Constable Shefleld and Deputy Con stable Hawks had a hard tusble yes terday morning with Fred Schlnck, of Petersburg, whom they went to arrest on a charge of threats preferred by his wife, Schlack was released from the coun ty jail on Wednesday after serving a three month's sentence for beutlng his wife, who secured a divorce during his Incarceration. Yesterday morning ho went to her home and broke in the door. Ho threatened to do her bodily harm unless sho turned over her fur ntturo to him and became so abusive that she went before- Alderman Ruddy and swore out a warrant for his ar rest. Ho fought the officers desperately when placed under arrest and though he was knocked down several times he didn't desist a bit. Tho patrol wagon was sent for and he fought like a tiger as ho was placed In It, It took the combined strength of three men to hold Win until Alderman Ruddy's office was reached. The alderman com mitted him to the county Jail In de fault of ?300 ball. Low Rates to Ithaca, N, Y,, and Return via the 0. & W. There will be a college regatta at Ithaca, N.

Adams Avenue and Linden St. TEACHERS' WANT S10 MORE EACH MONTH Made a Demand for a Flat Increase Before the Tenchers' Commit tee Last Night. Tlie teachers' committee of the board of control met lust night and conferred for nearly two hours with a committee of fifteen teachers on the salary question. There were five teachers present from the primary, Intermediate and gram mar grades respectively. Principals David Owens ot No. 13 and John 13. O'Malley of No. 13 acted as spokesmen. "The teachers, they said, desire that the board grant them a flat Inciense of $10 per month each. At first blush this might not seem to be fair all round, It was pointed out, but an analysis of the figures show that it Is. The Increase for the teach ers receiving the smallest salaries namely, those receiving $33, $t0 and $13 a month, would amount to 28 4-7, 23 and 22 2-i) per cent, respectively. The Increase for the teachers receiving higher salaries would amount to very consldeiably less on a percentage basis. The Increase for principals, whoso sal aries now average $S7.nn would be only 11 1-0 per cent. The total net amount of the increase asked for a year would be about $32, 000. This Is considerably less than the total amount of tho Increase proposed by President Gibbon's plan though the hitter does not contemplate us big an Increase for the grammar and Inter mediate teacheis as it does for the primary teachers. The committee will meet to decide upon the question on Monday night. It is safe to assume that the plan pro posed by the teachers will not be adopt ed in Its entirety. "A MERRY COMPANY."

The Great Wallace Show, which will give two performances in Scranton on Friday, May 23, are as? well and favor ably known ns any show ever was, and n certain class of business men prob ably think It foolish for Mr. Wallace to "spend money In advertising. Mr. Wallace does not think so. His agents have been In the city and have ar ranged for a very extensive advertis ing campaign both In the papers and on the billboards. Two things aie essential for the se curing of desired results from adver tising. The advertising matter must bo readable and attractive, and then the promise advertised must bo kept. Mr. Wallace is guided by these two cardinal principles, which have been attended with such conspicuous suc cess in his case. CAR MEN COMPLAINING. Division 168 Sends a Committee to See Mr. Silliman.

The Use of the Never-Disappointinz Rheumatism Banlsher Cured Her. True merit, prompt and effective re sults, and astonishing cures have given Palne's Celery Compound a position on the highest round of the ladder of fame. Palne's Celery Compound Is tdday tho only spring medicine asked for and bought by thoughtful and discerning people. For the treatment ot serious diseases, such nst rheumatism, neural gia, nervous disorders, and blood troubles, Tulne's Celery Compound has no equal. Tho credit of Palne's Celery Com pound has advanced to such a high eminence that amongst the millions who use It, we find the names of mil lionaires, bankers, nrofessional men. wealthy merchants, and women of note. AH have made it their chosen remedy for the cure of chronic diseases and for the banishment of tho little ailments that often make life miserable. Palne's Celery Compound, In the opinion of the lending druggists and physicians, has displaced nearly all tho common advertised medicines of the day. This great vork has been accom plished only by merit and genuine cuies." Kheuniatlsni. neuralgia, and nervous disorders take lllght In spilngtlme when Palne's Celery Compound is used for a time. Why delay the work of health building when such a life giver is with in your reach? Test Its efficacy this very day. Mrs. Hickey, happy and grateful for the astonishing results derived from Palne's Celery Compound, new nerve fibre, nerve force, fresh energy, and vit ality, writes us: "For nearly thirty years I have been an invalid, caused by that terrible dis ease, rheumatism. For six years I could not walk without the help ot friends. All my joints were stiff, and I had to be wheeled about the house in an invalid's chair. Physicians' medi cines, baths, etc., etc., were all In vain, but Palne's Celery Compound practi cally cured me, and I am now able to walk around and do my housework."

The stir the New Jersey Central's re cent announcement made in regard to Its hourly trains between New York and Philadelphia was far reaching. Very few cities can boast of such a train schedule and the beauty of It is, that it's easily remembered a train every hour on the even hour from 7 a. m. to G p. m. The locomotives, cars and Pullman cars are the most modern, the roadbed is rock ballasted, and ns only hard coal Is used there Is no smoke or cinders. Every train runs direct to Iteudlng Terminal, Philadelphia, without change and many of them cover the distance In two hours. Tho Reading route by which the Philadelphia line is often known, is not only 11 short way to Philadelphia, but it is likewise the scenic route. This service goes into effect on May IS, but in no way does It Impair the fast and elegant service of the Royal Blue line, which will run independently of the Philadelphia line.
