DICKSON HAS
STARTED UP
THIRD SCRANTON COLLIERY TO
RESUME WORK.
Dolawaro and Hudson Company Suc
ceeds in Dotting One of Its Col
lieries in Oporatlon Coal Hoisted
and Sent Through the Breaker.
Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern Company to Start Another Col
liery Today or Tomorrow House
at Rlchmondale Dynamited.
The Dickson colliery of tho Delaware
& Hudson company the Calico nt
Green Ridge resumed operations yes
tcrduy.
Superintendent Rose would say noth
ing concerning tho bIzo of the force
operating the colliery, but averred that
it wns large enough to warrant contln
ttous operation, and that nil the lunula
were old employes,
lie further stated thnt nt this col
llery for two weeks past coal hns been
cut and loaded. Yesterday for tho first
time coal was hoisted and run through;
the breaker.
This makes three collieries now In
operation In this city. The other two,
the Oxford and Cayuga, continue to
work without any serious Interference
from the strikers. In fact It Beems that
the strikers are not greatly grieved at
seeing work resuming.
Superintendent Tobey, of the Dela
ware, Lackawanna & Western mining
department, said, yesterday, that an
other of the company's collieries will
resume today or tomorrow. He de
clined to say which colliery it will be.
He did say however that It will not be
the Woodward. The company was
ready to start the Woodward last Mon
day morning, but the fact got Into the
papers, and the crowd that gathered
about the colliery frightened off the
men who intended to return to work.
For that reason the company proposes,
Jierenfter, to keep to itself its Intention
to start a colliery,
HOUSE DYNAMITED.
One of the most dastardly attempts
at destruction, as a result of the strike,
occurred at Rlchmondale early yester
day morning, when the dwelling house
occupied by James Ellas and family,
was partially destroyed by dynamite,
and the occupants narrowly escaped
serious Injury.
Prior to the Inauguration of the
strike, Ellas was employed at the
Rlchmondale breaker, and remained
out until recently, when he returned to
work in order to provide for his fam
ily. Monday night, the family retired
early and shortly after midnight were
aroused by a terrific explosion, which
broke the windows In the house, nnd
tore nway a portion of the front of
the building.
A stick of dynamite had been placed
on the porch beneath one of the front
windows.
Ellas, his wife and child, who were
In the house, were thrown from their
beds and had a narrow escape from
serious Injury. The house is owned by
Dr. J. C. Bateson, of tills city.
Fifty men left here and one hundred
more left Wllkes-Barre, yesterday, to
work In the soft coal regions. Four
hundred more are preparing to leave
Wilkes-Barro this week for the same
place. An agent Is in these parts look
ing for men to work In the Iron ore
mines at Port Oram, N. J.
President Mitchell, of the Mine Work
ers, who has been here for two days
on the street car arbitration, returns
to "Wilkes-Barre today.
COMPANY TO THE RESCUE.
Jnmes II. Torrey, Joseph O'Brien and
Robert J. Murray, counsel for the Del
aware and Hudson company, went be
fore Judge Newcomb yesterday morn
ing and secured the release of John
Valuk from tho rountv Jail.
A'aluk Is employed nt the Dickson
colliery of the Delaware and Hudson
company. He was on his way to work
Monday night, when he was met by
Joseph Pelco. Some trouble resulted
nnd Pelco had him nrrested for disor
derly conduct. He wns tnken before
Alderman Myeis and committed to jail.
At a meeting of the board of mine
examiners It was decided to investi
gate the reports that men not having
certificates are mining coal at the
various collieries, and if found true, to
take such action as may be necessary.
This decision was drawn up in the
form of a resolution as follows:
Scranton, Aug. 1, 1902.
We, tho members of the hoard of mlno
examiners of the Second Inspection dis
trict, having met In tho court house Mon

CERRA'S VICTIM DIES
FROM HIS INJURIES
Augusta Falbo, the' 5-Year-Old Son
of Gennarro Falbo, of Old
Forge, Succumbed.
Augusta Falbo, tho C-year-old boy
who was, wounded by a bullet from
Francesco Cerra's revolver at Old
Forge, on Monday night, died nt 2
o'clock yesterday afternoon, as tho re
sult of his injuries.
The murderer mndo good his escape
nnd Is still at large. The shooting, as
described In The Tribune yesterday,
wns substantially as It occurred, the
facts being corroborated by County De
tective Phillips In his Investigation
yesterday. The only errors made were
In spelling the names.
Cerra stood, so close to Falbo when
he fired the contents of his revolver
that the smoking pistol burned the
victim's clothing.
It was some time after (lie shooting
occurred thnt 'Squire Pickerel was no
tified, and, In the meantime, Cerra had
a good chance to escape.
It is believed, however, that he Is
still In Old Forge, and is being shield
ed bv friends.
Cerra Is described as being about 26
years of age, 5 feet 4 Inches In height,
weighs 165 pounds, has red complex
Ion, sandy moustache and red curly
hair, closely cut.
William Repp, who was Cerra's first
victim, offered the following reward
yesterday for the apprehension .of the
murderer:
I will pay $.'00 for the arrest and con
viction of Francisco Cerra, who last
night shot Gennarro Falbo and his child
and who tried to kill mo Dec. 1, 1900, and
preWously, tried to kill LouU Butch.
I will further pay $300 at any time In
the future for the arrest und conviction
of any person committing premeditated
murder in Old Forge borough, or one
half the amount If the nttempt falls.
I do this that hereafter there may be
no delay In the pursuit of a. murderer
while arranging for travel and other ex
penses. William Repp.
Old Forge, Pa., Aug. u, 1902.
TO SHOOT AT MONTROSE.
Thirteenth's Rifle Team Will Practice
at 1,000 Yard Range.
Colonel L. A. Watres Is In favor of
giving the Thirteenth regiment's rifle
team practice on a strange range, be
fore it leaves here for the state matches
at Mt. Gretna, and It Is therefore very
likely that Lieutenant Lewis B. Carter
will take his marksmen to Montrose, a
week from today.
Practice will be conducted there at
the 1000 yard range. Last year's team
also shot at Montrose, before going to
the state range. Lieutenant Carter Is
feeling highly elated over the splendid
showing his team has been making
In practice, and Is confident the Thir
teenth will be heard from, when the
time arrives for the distribution of J
prizes. Every man on the team this
year Is an able, experienced shot, and
nt least two of the men ought to make
the state team.

GODFREY IS
TOJEMAIN
WILL CONTINUfc TO CONDUCT
HOTEL JERMYN.
His Lenso Extended for Five Years
at a Meeting, Yesterday, with tho
Executors of tho Jormyn Estate.
Will Spond $20,000 on Improve
ments to tho Building and a Good
ly Sum in Refurnishing Interest
ing Story of Hotel's Reputation as
Narrated by George B, Jermyn.
Fred S. Godfrey yesterday completed
negotiations with tho executors of the
John Jermyn estate for a five year ex
tension to his lease on Hotel Jermyn,
There was some talk a few months
ngo that there had been a disagree
ment as to the rental terms and that
at the end of his present lease, next
April, Mr. Godfrey would give up the
hotel business In this city nnd go to
New York. This, however, wns simply
talk. Mr. Godfrey and Joseph J. nnd
George B. Jermyn met, yesterday, by
appointment and after a ten minutes
conversation, consummated the deal by
which Mr. Godfrey continues ns pro
prietor of the hotel nnd reached an
agreement by which the owner Is to
spend $23,000' In Improving the property
and the lessee Is to put In a goodly sum
In refurnishing it.
The hotel has been conducted under
Mr. Godfrey's management since It was
opened six years ngo. In that time It
has come to be known as one of the
very best hostelrles In the country. In
deed many of the drummers declare It
to bo the very best hotel In the United
States. In the way of giving a guest
his money's worth. There Is scarcely
any question but that It Is the "best
for the money' anywhere.
The reputation the hotel has attained
Is Indicated by an Instance related by
George B. Jermyn. He was traveling
In Switzerland a year ago and one
night put up at a small and uninviting
Aljilno inn. At the far end of the
table at which he was one of a large
number of diners, sat a man and his
wife. During the course of the meal
the man was seen to look disparaging
ly at the food and heard to say: "Wish
we had Hotel Jermyn here,!' Mr.
Jermyn, of course was much Interested
and at the conclusion of the meal
sought out the man and asked him
what Hotel Jermyn he had made re
ference to nt'the dinner. The reply was
"Oh a hotel over In America, at a place
called Scranton, where my wife and I
stopped for a few days on our way
here from St. Paul. Its the greatest
hotel we ever encountered."
Mr. Jermyn Introduced himself by
saying "My father owns that pldce."
The man from St. Paul excused him
self to his wife and accompanied Mr.
Jermyn to the dairy or some other
place to toast Hotel Jermyn.
It is not saying too much to mako
the assertion that the Hotel Jermyn,
under Mr. Godfrey's capable manage
ment, has done ns much ns any other
of Scranton's Institutions in making the
town celebrated. Before Its existence,
It was no uncommon thing for travel
ing men who had to stay In these parts
for a considerable length of time to go
to the Wyoming Valley hotel in Wllkes
Barre to make their headquarters.
Just what Improvements are to be
made on the hotel property have not
lippn divulged further than that the
mnrhlnerv in the basement and tho
floor of the lobby are to be replaced.
