The party had spent the day on a
tour of Inspection over the Bloomsburg

ed the mammoth new addition In course
of erection nt the plant of the Ameri
can Car and Foundry company.
This plant, when completed, will bo
the largest of Us kind In the UnltcM
States. The addition Is belnu built by
thS company for the purpose of erect
Ins pressed stoel cars which are In
euch demand at present by alt the rail
road companies.
The Lackawanna Kallroad company
handle an Immense amount of freight
in and out of Berwick for the Ameri
can Car and Foundry company, which
business is estimated at $100,000 a
month, and when the plant is enlarged
to Us full'-t capacity the volume of
freight business will be enormous.
NUMBER OF CHANGES.
To meet the requirements of this in
creased business the railroad company
will be obliged to make a number of
changes in its tracks at Berwick, and
It was for this purpose that the offi
cials wJnt over the ground yesterday.
When the special train reached
Bcramton at 5 o'clock, President Trues
dale granted an Interview to a Tribune
man. In answer to queries regarding
the proposed new car repairing and
motive power machine shops, promised
this city, he stated that the plans have
not been finished -yet, and that it will
be some time before work will be com
menced on the shops.
Mr. Truesdale admitted that the se
lection of the old north mill site for
the machine shops and the Keyscr Val
ley tract for the car shops, as exclu
sively announced In The Tribune, was
correct, but on account of the plans
being as yet unfinished, he could not
give any definite idea as to what they
will be like.
Ho stated, however, that the shops
will be thoroughly modern in every
respect, with up-to-date equipment and
electrical machinery. These Improve
ments will positively be made, but
there is no truth in the published state
ments, he said, that the company In
tend building a new passenger station
on Lackawanna avenue, or a locomotive-building'
plant on the' site1 of the
old south steel mill.
Chief Engineer McFarlln was Inter
viewed in relation to the West Lacka
wanna avenue viaduct, and ho stated
that the plans submitted by the city
engineer have been accepted, with a
few changes, and in all probability bids
wilt be advertised for within a short
time.
SOME IMPROVEMENTS.
The changes referred to are the loca
tion of steps on the side of the viaduct,
to permit people to cross west of
Eighth street, and the placing of an
opening leading into Dockash place
from West Lackawanna avenue. The
structure will be built jointly by the
railroad and trolley companies, the
damages accruing to be paid by the
pity.
When Ihe plans are ready, bids are
ndvertlsed for, and the contract let, It
Will bo for the delivery of the building
material on the ground so that work
can be commenced about April 1, 1903.
Mr. MacFarlln expects that the work
ton the proposed new car shops In Key
Eer Valley will also be started about
jthe same time, if the necessary ma
terials can bo obtained. Ho has no
Idea when the machine shops will be
built.
The proposed new freight station to
oc erected off Mattes street is also a
I
PUNISHMENT.
Social progress has done away with a
great many forms of punishment once
administered under the laws of enlight
ened people. But nature never changes
or modifies her penalties. She still has
tne same pumsu
ment for the man
who neglects or
abuses his stomach
as she bad in the
far off days "when
Adam delved and
Eve span."
The physical dis
comfort, dullness,
sluggishness, irri
tability, nervous
ness and sleepless
ness which are
visited upon the
man who eats care
lessly or irregularly
have been from the
beginning the evi
dences of disease of
the stomach and its
associated organs of
digestion una nu
trition. Dr. Pierce's Gold-
tn Medfca) Discovery cures the diseased
tfouiacb nnd'euables the" perfect digestion
ar(d assimilation of food, so that the
sluggishness, irritability, nervousness aud
sleeplessness which result' front innutri
tion are cured also,

ARE BREAKING CAMP.
Lancers Will All Have Left Lodore
Before Nightfall.
"Before nightfall, the First Regiment
of Lancers will have deserted Camp
Hoban, at Lake Lodore, and most of
thein will be at their homes again, af
ter a week's absence. Their departure
of course, depends upon no rainfall. If
it should be rainy this morning, the
tents cannot bo removed and packed
"until dry, as. the contract with the
camp furnishing company, of Philadel
phia, calls for the fulfillment of such
a condition. Last night the tents were
quite dry and Colonel Phillips ,was
hopeful of leaving the lake at 2.56 this
afternoon. This would bring the
Scranton campers home at 4,30 and the
AVilkes-Barre lancers at 5.20.
There was no obser-vance of military
regulations yesterday. Discipline was
suspended, and the majority of the
lancers spent the day visiting, either
in Carbondale or Honesdalc. Not a
few left for their homes. At no time
vdurlng the day were there more than a
score about camp.
Colonel Phillips will leave for home
well satisfied, under the circumstances,
with the week's work. Despite the
weather, the men enjoyed themselves
and got an idea of military camp life.
There are Btrong hopes of a highly
successful encampment next year.
JEFFRIES THE FAVORITE.
Scrantonians Favored the Champion
in Yesterday's Betting.
Last night's Jeffries-Fltzslmmons
fight aroused more local Interest than
any big fistic encounter during' the last
two years. Newspaper offices were be
sieged all night with queries over the
'phone, and the city telegraph offices
were centres of interest.
Jeffries was the favorite in the bet
ing here, as elsewhere. Some of the
champion's partisans were willing to
give as much as 5 to 2 on the big Cali
fornlan, but the majority of Fitzslm
mons men were contented with .bets at
a ratio of 2 to 1.
Returns were received at thn, Star
theatre, where a big crowd assembled
to listen to the news of the fight and,
incidentally, witness three sparring
matches.
The Nealls-Whlte and Clarke-Green
bouts were preliminaries, and at 11.30
"Sparrow" Allen and Billy Mack, two
well-known city "pugs," gave a. spir
ited four-round go. A challenge was
read from "William Coulter, of Dun
more, who is willing to meet any 140
pound fighter in the county.
PLANS FOR MATTES STREET.
Blue Prints Prepared Shbwlng Street
in Straightened Form.
Blue prints have been prepared by
Superintendent of the Bureau of En
gineering Phillips and are now in the
possession of Director of Public Works
Roche, providing for the .straightening
and repairing of Mattes street. The

additional lines being mapped out to
show tho desired trend of the street.
Two copies have been made, which
are to be submitted to the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western Railroad

lished for the street of sixty feet. There

a whole family the father, mother, three
children, and an aged grandmother for
purposes of robbery;

THE MARKETS
Wall Street Review.
New York, July 25. Violent pi Ice move
ments and very heavy dealings in somo
of tlio prominent high pi Iced stocks were
tho thin nc tcilH ties of today's stock mar
ket. There was Imgo realizing at in
tervals, both In the stocks whldh wore
moved upwards today nnd In others
which had piovlottsly ndvnnced. Tho In
iliiRtilnlH itnd the low priced railroad
stocks played only a small pait In tho
market, the high priced standard stock3
traversing all portions of the country
being In the van of all lines nnd tho
citHtein trunk lines all had their turn
In tho day's activity. Tlio bulls luul I hi'

erfeutlvo factord In the day's trading
'jero rumors of great financial operations
looking tn tho harmonizing and consol
idating of control of tho great railroad
systems of tho country. All of thoo were
moio or less vague, and none of them
wits accorded open or ofllclnl sanction,
That regarding Itock Inland was the
most clearly defined and It was notlcc
nblo thnt Unit stock, with something llko
explicit information to go up on, fell
out of the forefront of tho trading and
failed to maintain all of ,yestcidayrs ad

tion iiIro that another largo iiilliouil sys
tem Is to bo absorbed, tlio prevailing be
lief pointing to St. Louis and San Fran
cisco. AsHcrtlons that Atchison wns to
bo taken over were effectively denied,
numors continued thick concerning St.
Paul, thb one nsslKUlnglt to Union Pa
cific being most persistent but wthotit
nuthctic countenance. The southern
trunk line consolidation story and tlio
enstorn trunk lino icadJUMtment story
also did offectlvo service In tho stock
maikct without receiving any formal
authorization. Kven the supposed hos
tility between tho Pennsylvania nnd tho
Ooiilds was made to do service by tho
bulls on the theory that tlio defeat of
tho Pennsylvania Hudson river tunnel
contract was duo to Gould Influence and
