The nlBht-'beforo Iho Fourth In West Bcranton was unusually quiet. The largest crowd of peoplo since the In auguration of the strike were gathered about the street coroners, watching the youngsters enjoying themselves In the dlschnrge of fireworks, sending up buloons, sky-rockets nnd the like. Not an accident of any kind wns re ported up to 10 o'clock from any quar ter, and the noise of the firecracker was not as frequent as In former years, owing, no doubt, to the prevalence of the strike, and the order Issued by the director of public safety against the explosion of glunt firecrackers and powder, Had there been a fire, an alarm would have been out of the question, ns the system In West Scranton was out of order, and the firemen hud to de pend upon stilt alarms or lndlvldaul calls. Word was sent to Superintendent Ferbor regarding the system being out of order, and he hnd men at work as soon as possible placing the wires In shape for business. All of the regular men, together with the bunk nnd call men, were assembled about their re spective quarters waiting for calls.
