INDUSTRIAL
AND LABOR
JAMES WILSON, OF NEW YORK,
IS IN THE CITY.
Bo Is Natlohnl President of the Fat
tom Makers nnd He Is Here in the
Interest of the Members of That
Craft Railroads Suffering from
Irfick of Equipment Lackawanna
Is Branching Out Into New Eng
landThe New Trolley Road to
Hazleton Board for Today.
Jnmes Wilson, of New Yprk city, na
tional president of the Patternmakers'
union, Is at the St. Charles. He hns
coiiie here to spend u week In reorgan
izing the men of his craft, whose local
union silffcrod seriously during the
machinists' strike, In which the pat
ternmakers participated for a time.
There are about forty patternmakers
In the city and a dozen or so In Car
foondnle and other towns of the county.
President Wilson is arranging to have
the local men meet and perfect nn or
Kanlzatlon some night next week. He
Is being assisted In the work by Na
tional Organizer Hugh Frayne, of the
American Federation of Labor.
Lack of Equipment.
"A railroad official connected with
one of the larger eastern systems says
that ho Is satisfied that the roads as a
whole have not sufficient equipment to
take care of the business now In sight
nnd which may reasonably be expected
during the coming winter," says an ex
change. "In particular, he cites as evi
dence of this the large number of
orders for new locomotives that are
placed dally. One compilation of such
orders given In a week shows that they
n mounted to nearly six hundred, of
which four hundred were freight en
gines. "All parts of the country were repre
sented ln these orders. They have,
however, ' swamped the locomotive
builders, and It Is next to Impossible
to get an engine delivered In anything
lke quick time. The builders have not
Isept up with the demands of their
trade and the railroads are hampered
thereby. The general car situation Is
satisfactory, but the officials say three
more such weeks as last will use up
their surplus of cars and bring on the
car shortage which all have tried to
avoid. This year, although the crop of
small grains has been large, weather
conditions and the unwillingness of
farmers to sell their good grain have
prevented any great pressure of wheat
and oats at any point for more than a
week at a time."
New Trolley Line.
One of the pleasures of these delight
ful fall days Is a ride over the new
Hazleton & Wllkes-Bare trolley road
from Hazle park to the mouth of the
tunnel on the Wllkes-Barre mountain,
says the Hazleton Standard.
The track Is now down to the
mouth of the tunnel on the Wllkes
Barre mountain and Is In excellent con
dition. The third rail, which is sixty
feet In length and of the best steel,
has been distributed the entire distance
and is being placed in position. The
pole line for the telephone and which
will also carry the high tension feed
wire. Is completed as far as the tunnel.
The construction of this line has been
a tedious task, as every hole In the
mountain had to be blasted. The
power house is practically completed,
and In the course of a week or two
the company will be able to furnish
power, as there are only a few minor
details to be perfected on the large
dynamos.
A sub-station lias also been erected
near the Nescopeck mountain. Power
will be carled to this station by wire
from St. Johns, and will be used for
the speeding of the third rail. The
track is well ballasted and lined up,
while the scenery through Conyngham
nnd down the Nescopeck mountain at
this time Is magnificent. The eleva
tion on the mountain is 1.G30 feet above
tidewater, and gives a good view of
Prospect Rocks at Upper Lehigh and
a portion of West Hazleton.
Work on the tunnel Is being pushed
with all possible rapidity and there is
now only about 430 feet between the
two headings.
Lackawanna. Branching Out.
The Lackawanna is pushing for busl
jess In New England territory. Re
cently It made a trafllc agreement with
the New Haven for tho handling of
freight to and from New England
points via New York, In addition to a
similar arrangement with the Boston
nnd Maine via Blnghnmton, thus giv
ing tho Lackawanna a valuable en
trnnco.lnto New England.
It is understood that the Lackawanna
now contemplates extenslvo Improve
ments at New York, although tho ex
act nature of the plans cannot be stated
at this time. Tho Improvements will
undoubtedly greatly Increase the road's
Importance as a factor In the traftle of
New York. Philadelphia Stockholder.

THEATRICAL.
"A Colonial Girl."
A three-act drama of the Revolutionary
period, "A Colonial Girl," wns seen at
tho Lyceum last night. Upon its former
appearance here. Howard Gould -was
starred In it. Last night, Miss Bertha
Crclghton had that distinction. So much
for the versatility of tho play, which
permits of a mule or female star, just as
pleases the manager.
Miss Crelghton ii a gracious and beau
tiful young woman, who Inst night made
a decidedly good impression in the role
of Mollie Hedden, who is the victim of
cruel misrepresentation to keep her from
her husband, whom she loves devotedly,
but who she is made to believe has
wedded her because Jilted by, a woman
of higher social position.
The play has a strong military at
mosphere throughout, the red uniforms
of the English soldiers lending color to
the stage pictures. Supporting Miss
Crelghton Is a very good company, the
prominent members of which are Hobeit
E. Homans. James A. Mahony, William
Granger, Violet Kimball and Grace
Quackenbush.
Programme That Pleases All.
Tho business at the Dixie theater the
picscnt week has been the most en
couraging yet, and the steadily-increasing
attendance is best evidence of the
tlrm hold that tho enterprise has taken
upon the theater-going public.
"Tho Story of Cinderella," Ameta's fire
dance, comedy sketches gy Slsson nnd
Wallace, and Murphy and Wlllard, songs
and dances by tho colored vocalists,
Rustus and Dunks, nnd tho exhibitions
given by the Imperial J.tps, contribute
towards a bill that is varied to suit all.
Lilliputian's Trip to Europe.
Major James D. Doyle, tho talented
midget Irish comedian, who makes thous
ands laugh with his natural wit in the
Royal Lilliputians company, spent his
vacation in Europe, and on tho trip over
was a general favorite, both on account
of lili dlmiuutivo nppearanco and his
ready fund of humor,
"Tho Royal Lllllputalus" will present
"Posterland" at the Lyceum Saturday
afternoon and evening. Prices for tho
special children's matinee children l.'c,
to any part of tho house; ndults, -3c and
50c. gents now on sale.
"The Little Mother."
Many interesting stories have been
written nbout tho tenement district of
Greater New York, but not one has over
beforo been offered to tho public whcio
tho author has coullncd himself to origi
nal ideas, as Lawrence Marston's new
play of "Tho Llttlo Motner," which will
be offered at tho Lyceum Tuesday night,
No melodrama has over held tho mh
ror up to nature, mora vividly or ac
curately than does tho story of "Tho
Llttlo Mother." As a drama, with its
plot and scenes laid In Now York city,
It out-clubscs al lothers that huve pre
ceded It, and it Is justly entitled to the
distinction. Heroism, comedy, villainy,
pathos and heart Interest abound
throtigout. Special scenery, mechanical
and electrical effects aro promised, Setts
on sale Saturday at 9 a. m.
"The Patal'Weddine."
The next attraction at tho Academy of
Music for three days, sxarung Monday

duced on exactly the same ccenlo splen
dor and wltlh tho samo cast that charac
terized Its presentation (it tho Grand
which nppeals to the sympathies of an
Opera House, New York, last season.
Tho pltty Is a story of New York ljfe,
audlcnco by reason of tho stirring inci
dents which aro cleverly woven into a
story of lovo and adventuro, with pa
thetic and comedy scene alternating.

THE MARKETS
Wall Stret JUyUw.
Now York, Sept. 11. The "street" ex
perienced n Renttlne surprise today,
when the directors of the Bt. Paul road
placed the common stock on a 7 per
cent, basis. This wan better by half of
1 per cent, than hint been expected, nnd
the market, which had been unsettled
nil day as a result of conflicting rumors
regarding Bt. Paul nnd nn advance In
call money to 11 per cent., closed very
active but weak. The list opened with
considerable strength. The most note
worthy movement nt the opening wns
IJnltlmorc and Ohio. The strength of
that stock wns explained later, when It
beenmc known that the directors of the
road had authorized nn issue of extra
common stock to the amount of $42,
500,000, the Issue carrying with It the
right to subscribe at par. In the snmo
early movement there were gains in
Missouri Pacific, Louisville and Nash
ville, Denver nnd Rio Grande, Southern'
Railway, Reading, Chesapeake nnd Ohio
and other) coalers, Rumors later found
to bo false were responsible for a rise
in Colorado Fuel, which soon lost its
Improvement. Initial dealings also
showed better prices for American Hide
nnd Leather (newly listed), American
Smelting, the local tractions, Chicago
Union Traction and Tennessee Coal and
Iron. Following this movement, St.
Paul, which had been comparatively In
conspicuous, began to show marked
heaviness on profit-taking, followed by
rumors of dividend disappointment.
Traders seized the opportunity to sell
the list, and further uncertainty wns
occasioned by rumors that the banks
contemplated a campaign against cer
tain high-priced Industrials and pool
stocks as a whole. The afternoon ses
sion brought a slightly better tone, but
all hands were waiting on Bt. Paul and
supporting orders In Western Union,
Baltimore and Ohio, and severnl other
stocks helped to steady the list. An
nouncement of the dividend action on
St. Paul caused a rally of more than
two points In that stock- and the bal
ance of tho list was strengthened, but
not to any great degree. St. Paul, on
transactions in excess of 60,000 shares,
registered a net loss of V2 points. Tho
day's business was rather narrow,
though total operations amounted to
over one million shares. '
Total sales for tho day, 1,017,700
shares.
Railroad bonds were very irregular
today, but movements generally were
narrow. Total sales, par vulue, $4,305,
000. United States new 4's declined ; the
3's and the old 4's , per cent, on the
last call.
