NOW THE VIADUCT.
Recorder Connell Has Practically
Becided That Bids Must Be
Asked for at Once.
Recorder Connell hus spent consider
able time In tho last few days looking
over the viaduct ordlnunco, recently de
clared legal and valid by tho Supreme
court, and the papers In connection
therewith, Including the bond filed by
tho Delaware, Lackawanna nnd West
ern and Serunton Hallway companies,
together with their proposition agree
ing to puy the cost of erecting 'the
structum.
He has practically decided that the
terms of the ordinance must bo fol
lowed out at once, and that the viaduct
must bo bullous soon us possible. It
has not been decided ns yet how the
bids shall be advertised for. Under second-class
city laws the recorder and
director of public works would be the
officials who would open the bids and
award the contract.
The ordinance, however, provides that
the city clerk 'shall advertise for bids
and that the councils shall award the
contruct. This Is only a detail, how
ever. Tho important point is that a
viaduct Is to be built In the very near
future and that It Is going to be a sen
sible kind of a viaduct, one extending
from curb to curb and completely
blocking up tho dungerous West Lnck
uawnna avenuo crossing.

Tribute to the Late John Jermyn.
Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: It Is with sorrow that I Irani of
tlio death of John Jermyn, of this city.
At his passing there comes vividly to
mind my oailicst experiences of this, my
land by adoption. To meeting him In
London, through a member of parlia
ment, I attribute my presence In this
favored land today. Kecnlllng his unpre
tentious life, I desire to speak of him
now In tho silence of death In language
becoming and ehur.icteilMlc of bis life.
On arriving in an adjoining stato I
wrote him a letter, which was responded
to, tho reply containing lines In part to
this effect: "If you ever como this way,
cull and vlsdt us." I acted upon thes-c
suggestive lines and came on to his homo
ut Jermyn, whoru I was a guest In bis
family, during which time. I was offered
u, position in his store, which I cheer
fully accepted, Uelng but a low weeks
here, I was at that time unsettled In
mind na to my future, heneo my former
reference to him in your columns of a
few weeks slnco as my benefuctor. His
noble act at so opportune a time could
justify no less an apppllatlnn. During
my stay with him, he always evidenced
a sincere Interest In my welfare.
My coming hero was made pleasant at
the start, and through this my early
experiences In tho country ure Inspiring
nnd pleasant recollections. As nu Illus
tration of his sincerity, ho on more
than ono occuhlon expressed n deslrn to
havo mo enter and make a study of tho
mines with a vlow to literary result:', be
lieving such an Innovation would be
populur nnd lucrative.
Tho writer recalls with pleasure his
noblo rcfernces to tho land of his birth,
no less than his appreciation of this, tho
country of his adoption. lie took greut
pride In a citizenship or this grand repub
lic. My personal Impression of him was
that ho was a man easy to approach, en
joying a friendly chat with any of his
employes, especially those of a pructical
turn of mind. Ho was a self-mudo man,
of good heart and Judgment, of keen
perception and well balanced mind. Ilo
was in sympathy with those from tlio
land of his birth and had an open heart
for nil. Unmoved by tho glamour of
wealth or its attendant onsequcnecs, ho
retained his curly and customary natural
courtesy to all. These lines nro wrltton

THEY WONT BE
REINSTATED
MEN WHO QUIT WORK MONDAY
CAN'T GET BACK.
Ono of the Big Coal Officials Says
They Will Take Their Jobs with
Them No Difficulty in Keeping
the Mines Clear of Water Is Ex
pectedBelief That Only Small
Percentage of Men Will Quit.
The Eight Hour Demand May Be
Withdrawn.
The offlclnla of tho big coal companies
operating mines In and nrotind this city
seemed more convinced than ever yes
terday that very few of the engineers,
pumpmen nnd firemen will obey the
strike order Issued by President Mitch
ell, calling upon them to quit work next
Monday,
A Tribune man hnd an extended In
terview yesterday with the superintend
ent of one of tho big coal companies.
"You can sny," said he, "that every
engineer, fireman or pumprunncr who
quits work next Monday and deserts
the company at this critical time will
take his job with him. Under no con
sideration will any of these men be
taken back. Some will undoubtedly quit,
but we don't expect any serious diffi
culty. The majority of these men, more
particularly the engineers, are going to
stand by us. Of that we ure convinced.
"The miners' belief that they could
coerce us into yielding because of the
possibility of our mines being flooded
was not based on a knowledge of the
real situation. Even should they all
quit, we would be able to run our en
gines and our pumps, We do not pro
pose to let our mines get flooded and
anybody who thinks we do hus another
guess coming. Ever since the strike
began wo have been keeping at each
colliery anywhere from twelve to fifteen
monthly men on our pay-rolls foremen,
flrebosses, and the like.
"These men have been kept In readi
ness for any emergency and they will
be put at work on Monday to tuke the
places of any of the men who may quit.
I am inclined to think that the men
who may go out on Monday will be
principally firemen. The engineers seem
to be practically opposed to the strike
order. They are men who have worked
themselves up to their present places
after long and hard years of toll, and
they see no good reason why they
should quit without any grievance."
It was learned yesterday from a Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western official
that that company will begin operations
at one of its breakers just ns soon as a
sufficient number of men will volunteer
to go back to work. A number have
already signified a desire to go back,
but not a sufficient number to warrant
the starting of one of the collieries.
The Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern company is operating its Diamond,
Bellevue and Hampton washeries every
other day, but the coal washed out is
being used fntlrely at the company's
several collieries. It was given out yes
terday from the company's office that
no attempt will be made for the present
to furnish coal from any of tho wash
eries to outside Interests.
President T. D. Nlcliolls, of District
No. 1, United Mine Workers of Amer
ica, who has charge of the local end of
the strike, said yesterday that there
was no possibility of the strike "order
being withdrawn, as requested by the
joint meeting of engineers, pumprun
ners and firemen held In .West Scran
ton on Wednesday.
WILL NOT BE WITHDRAWN.
"This order could only be withdrawn
at a joint meeting of the three execu
tive boards," said he, "similar to the
one which issued it. Such a meeting
has not been called, nor will be called,
as far as 1 know. I still think that tho
strike order will be generally obeyed,
but if it is not, I am inclined to favor
the withdrawal of the demand for the
eight-hour day for the engineers, puivp
runners and firemen."
President Nlrbolls refused to give out
for publication the resolutions adopted
at the West Scranton meeting.
It was stated yesterday in a morning
paper that tho Pauquolt silk mill would
be obliged to shut down because of a
lack of fuel. Manager Davis denied this
statement yesterday.
"We have no intention of shutting
down the mill permanently," said he,
"because we have a two months' supply
of coal on hand. We shut down toduy
and wilt remain shut until Monday, be
cause of the annual boilpr inspection.
There's no truth in the story at all."
Tho Erie company Is making prepar
ations for the fencing of all their ol
llerles In Dunmore. Lines were stnked
yesterday at No, 5 shaft. A fence eight
feet high, surmounted by two strands
of barb wire. Is to hp built, all of which
looks like anything but an early settle
ment of tho present trouble.
HAVE CONCEDED.
The following Is from the Hazleton
Item of Wednesday:
"The St. Clair Coal company, oper
ators of the second largest individual
colliery In the Schuylkill region, have
granted the demands of the pumpmen,
engineers, etc., for an eight-hour day
at tho same wages during tho present
strike and agree to grant any conces
sions nccorded the men nt tho cxnlr
atlon of the strike by the other oper
ators. Tho men have accepted the offer.
"The operators of tho E. White com
pany at Wadesvllle, u. mile from St,
Clair, have also granted tho same con
cessions, This colliery has not shipped
any mined coal since the December
flood, nnd wero it to fill up now it would
never be reopened."
A joint meeting of Local unions Nos.
1010, 1229 and 1624, of Prlceburg, will be
held tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock In
the Dickson City borough building to
formulate ways and means for bringing
the engineers, firemen nnd pumprunuers
In that part of tho district Into line
before next Monday,
"PHILLIE CLUB" ORGANIZED.
Formed by Members of Melita Com
mandery, Knights Templar,
The members of Melita commandery,
No, 68, Knights Templar, have already
organized a "Phlllle club" for the pur
pose of attending tho next annual gath
ering In 1003 nt Philadelphia.
The pilgrimage to the semi-centennial

THIS IS A THRILLER.
Wayne County Man Kills Forty
three Rattlesnakes'Singlehanded.
Out of Wayne county there comes a
weird and wonderful story of a man's
fight for his life in a den of rattle
snakes. '
The mnn lit Ihe ease Is Frank Hausch
meycr, who lives nt Hondley's nnd who
happened to step Into tho den of rattlo
,flnnkcs InBt Tuesday mornlnff, while out
for a walk. Ho wns quickly hemmed
In by a writhing muss of reptiles nnd
picked up a club, with which he laid
right nnd left.
After he had killed a score or more
of the snakes, he was bit on the end of
the finger by one of them. Ho drew his
trusty knife and with one slash hipped
the end of the member off, thus pre
venting tho poison from entering his
blood. Then ho went back to his work
of snake-kllllng until the bodies of
forty-three reptiles lny prone on tho
ground before him.
Reports are thnt he has been "some
what Indisposed" slnco his experience.
TO BET 1500 ON
THE SCRANTON TEAM
Manager Lawson Will Risk That
Amount on the Series of
Oames with Lancaster.
Manager Lawson, of the Scranton
base ball team, when In Lnncnster ear
ly In the week offered to bet Manager
Carman, of the Lancaster club, $500
that Scranton would win tho series of
six gnmes arranged for the two clubs.
Manager Carman said he'd think tho
matter over. Last night Manager Law
son received n telegram from Manager
Carman announcing that a, syndicate
of Lancaster sports havo agreed to
take up his offer, and that one of them
will be here In town today to cover his
money. If the money is put up by both
sides this should greatly add to tho
Interest In the gnmes and encourage
the players to play as snappy ball as
they are capable of.
The first three games of tho scries
will be played In this city. Scranton
will play the Lancaster club this morn
ing ut 10.15 and this afternoon at S
o'clock. McGeary and Ralney will be
the morning battery and either Wlltsc
or Newberry will pitch In the after
noon with Steinberg behind the bat.
The last three games will be played
in Lancaster on Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday. If it becomes necessary
to play a seventh game the place for
playing It will bo decided by the tois
of a coin.
There Is1 a possibility that Scranton
may get Into either the New York
State or Eastern league. Manager
Lawson has written to Presidents Far
rcll and Powers respectively asking to
be given a chance to put his team in
when the first vacancy occurs.
The Illon team In the New York
state league is understood to be In a
shaky condition and It Is also under
stood that base ball isn't paying In
Jersey City, which is In the Easts
league. Both these leagues arc fast,
especially the latter, nnd there is no
question but they will last out the
whole season,

A. J. Kellerman made another good
return in The Tribune's Educational
Contest yesteiday, and has now passed
the second century. Charles Burns and
William Rodriguez also increased their
points, and it will be Interesting to
watch tho leaders during the next two
days, as eacli Is anxious to secure the
gold watch offered for the largest num
ber of points secured during the
month. Of coiuso only one can win, but
those who fail will have a good start
in the main contest and will be just so
much nearer a spjfial reward of great
value.
In order that the rules may be per
fectly fair to all contestants, both In
Scranton and tho?e who reside In other
towns, there will be a slight change
in the usual custom of crediting points
at the close of the last day of the
month. The hour for closing will bp 5
o'clock, just the same as usual, but
contestants out of town will be credited
with all points mailed before 5 o'clock,
lnstcnd of crediting only those which
are received at The Tribune office be
fore 3 o'clock. The postmark will de
termine whether the letter was mailed
before that hour, and contestants
should ascertain from their postmnstffr
just how early In the afternoon it will
bo necessary to mail a letter in order
to have it postmarked 5 p. m. or 'earlier.
The special honor prise for the month
of June will bo announced on Monday
morning, In the same Issue that the
winner of the gold watch will be an
nounced. What this will be has not yet
been determined, but it will be well
worth working for nnd fully equal In
value to the one offered for May.
There was only one change in the
standing of contestants yesterday. L.
E. Stanton, who has been climbing
steadily up the list, went up another
place and this morning appears In
eleventh position.
There were several entries yesterday
nnd It Is expected that mora will follow
so ns to bo ready to commence active
work with the opening of the new
month. A full explanation of tlio con
