WORK STARTED

MEN WORKING AT THE AVON

Operations Wcro in Pull Blast Yes
terday at tho Avondale Colliery of
the Lackawanna Company, and a
Number of Men Wcro Working at
the Von Storch, of the Delaware &
Hudson Company General Man
ager Thome, of tho Temple Com
pany, Back from New York.
Work was again In progress yesterday
at tho Von Storch colliery of tho Dela
ware and Hudson Railroad company,
where a largo number of men were
engaged during the day, hoisting coal
to the surface, and cutting a quantity
of fresh coal.
The Avondale colliery of the Dela
ware, Lackawanna &Vestcrn Railroad
company was In operation yesterday,
and about nlxty men worked through
out the day, without Interruption or
molestation. The greater number of
Lackawanna, collieries are now In
readiness to start any day, and the coal
department oniclnls declare that before
the week Is pust It Is not unlikely that
a number of other collieries will bo
working.
Vice-president E. E. Loomls of tho
Lackawanna was In tho city yester
day, and held his weekly conference
with Superlntedent Tobey. The situa
tion was generally discussed, and the
work reviewed, of the past week at the

BACK FROM NEW YORK.
General Manager S. B. Thorne, of the
Temple Iron company, yesterday re
turned from Now York, and will today
Investigate Ihe case of Frank Decker,
the deputy arrested last Saturday for
being implicated in the shooting of
Michael Connolly and Forrest Cross
man, at tho Edgerton washery.
Mr. Thorne yesterday declared that
he did not place the slightest credence
In the theory of Decker's having shot
the men. The company gave pretty
substantial evidence of Its belief In
Decker's innocence by furnishing tho
$2,000 bond necessary to ball him out.
The strongest e valence in Decker's
favor Is supplied byj Connolly, one of
tho wounded men, vho states that he
had left him four hundred yards away,
just befoie the shooting occurred, and
It would have been practically an Im
possibility for him to have perpe
ti.ited the deed.
The lMgrertou is tho only washery
operated by the Temple company la
these p.uts, and General Manager
Thorne is highly satisfied with the re
sults, which are being achieved at It.
Sixteen bundled tons of coal have been
washed there in the last four days, and
the total output for tho month will be
upwards of nine thousand tons.
The company, like the. Erie and On
tario and Western, is simply resting at
piesont, f.r.d making no efforts to re
sume operations at any of their col
lieries. Talking about the Ontario and
Western, however, it will only be
apropos to say that any day may now
witness a lesumption of work at tho
Mount Pleasant or West Ridge col
lieries. MINES ARE READY.
The forces of men who have been at
work making repairs and cleaning up
at the two mines have now practically
completed their tasks, and develop
ments are being eagerly awaited. There
were no fresh arrests of strikers yes
terday, charged with interfering with
Lackawanna workmen, but a number
of warrants will bo served today.
Several of tho warrants sworn out
several clays ago have not been served
as yet, and in addition a number of
additional infoi muttons were lodged
yesterday with Alderman M. J. Ruddy.
It is expected that the North Ameri
can washery, in South Scranton, will
resume woilc today. Everything Is in
readiness at the 'washery and unless
something totally unforeseen occurs,
work will be on today.
Local No.' 1C67 will meet at ilO o'clock
this morning In St. Mary's hall.
