PLATT HAS TO
GUESS AGAIN
HIS STOCK AS A PROPHET IS
AWAY BELOW PAR.
Day on Which the Coal Strike Would
End, According to tho New York
Senator, Is at Hand, but the Strike
Appears to Be Farther from Settle
ment Now Than It Ever Was Lo
cal Company Officials Count on a
Break in the Strike Before the
Week Is Over.
Today, the one hundred nnd twenty
sixth since tho strike bejran, Is tho
day on which the strike Is to end, ac
cording to the prediction made and em
phatically reiterated by Senator Piatt,
and as far as any onu on the outside
can discover there Is no Indication
that the prediction Is to como true. In
fnct there never was a time since the
ntrlke began when there was less
groundwork on which to base a hope
of settlement.
The only known .movement on nt
present to bring about a .settlement is
that of which Governor Stone is nt
tho head, and this gives small promlee
of accomplishing anything, for It is
now almost a surety the operators will
brook nojiolltlcnl Interference, nnd the
strikers' representatives, nccordlng to
the declaration of District President
Fa hey, considered ns "unsatisfactory"
the conference had with his excellency.
The chances are that the waiting game
is to continue for some time.
Superintendents of the local com
panies nre counting on many deflec
tions from the strikers' ranks this
week, when It Is found that Senator
Piatt was Just guessing and that ub- .
solutely nothing that can possibly be
effective Is "doing" towards bringing
the struggle to an end.
ARE NOT WORRYING.
The strike lenders declare there Is no
worrlment caused them by the possi
bility of a break. The men are more
determined than ever to win out nt
any cost, the leaders say, and all talk
of them breaking from the union and
solng back to work is nonsense.
It was reported Saturday and yester
day that one hundred employes of a
local colliery which has started up,
have banded together to return to work
In a body this morning. The company
olilclals refused to affirm the story.
President Mitchell came here Satur
day and stayed over night at the St.
Charles. As far as could be learned,
he did not meet any onu other than
personal friends. He returned to
Wllkes-Barre yesterday morning.
District President Nlcholls did not
teturn hero from Harrlfeburg but con
tinued on to Trenton, N. J., where he
addressed a big labor meeting yester
day afternoon.
The Engineering and Mining Journal
of Saturday had the following:
The strike Is .still on, with little pros
pect of nu Immediate settlement. Tho
only encom aging factor In the situation
la that those oftlcialt of the I'nlted Mine
Workers who have been keeping the men
In Hue by promises must now be at tho
end of their resources in this respect. The
Civic Federation and Senator Hannu have
accomplished nothing. Senators Quay and
Penrose havo appaiently found the situ
ation perplexing, and Carroll D. Wilght's
report with that of Attorney General
Knox removed any prospect of congress
or President Hoosevelt Inking hasty no
tion. There remains but the governor of
Pennsylvania, and he Is not likely to
promise much help to Mr. Mitchell. In
the meantime the J.W.OOO weekly relief
fund i not forthcoming, and though tho
minora can bold out for weeks, yet the
great majority of them would undoubt
edly bo glad of nny kind of an excuse for
returning to woik. There Is nothing to
Indicate that Mr. Morgan or tho piesl
donts of the coal companies will make tho
great blunder of weakening at tho elev
enth hour. Their attitude now Is piecle
ly what It was In May. Meanwhile coal
Is scarcer, and, though the output of the
washeries is larger, a great number of
people who oidlnarlly use anthracite will
burn bituminous for domestic purposes
this winter.
DOCKS ARK BAKU.
At the head of the Lakes the docks are
bare, and as the producing companies are
likely to supply their live trade before,
shipping to distant points. Consumers hi
the Northwest will burn bituminous coal,
lignite and wood this winter. In Chicago
territory there are no htipplies of Import
ance 'not under contiuct, mid practically
nn anthracite to be had at' wholesale.
Retail pi Ices at Chicago are $lla12;
wholesale, about flflall.
Along the lower lakes and In Canadian
territory supplies vary nt different points,
but aie In general very light. The Krlo
company Is still selllnir a little coal at
Buffalo. Along the Atlantic; seaboard
there are fair supplies still at some
points, but dealcis restilet sales and keep
prices up, Tho situation la wmst about
New Yoik harbor, whero letallers will
hcII only by half-ton lots .and ask $12al.l
per ton. New Ymk dPaleis, owing to tliu
high price of land, have very small stor
age yiuds 1n piopoitlou to the buslne.-s
they do. and consecpiently had little coal
on hand when the stilke came, while tl.o
outcry over tho uso of bituminous in tho
early days of the strike lead to many
nianufacturlug concerns and office build,
lugs and the elevated rallioad buying up
the coal available. The olevated Is now

PREPARING TO TRAIL
THE CLOVEN HOOFS
Fourteen-Year-Old Talford Carpenter
Wanted to Emulate the Buffalo
Bill of Fiction.
Talford Carpenter, of Tripp Park,
not yet 14 years of age, is detained at
the Jackson street police station In de
fault of $300, on the charge of larceny.
.Saturday young Carpenter went Into
Mrs. H. M. Cooper's store, In Tripp
park, and took a pocketboolt contain
ing' $8 and some small change. These
are tho things he bought:
Two knives, one revolver, box of 32
short cartridges, a pack of playing
cards, and live half-dime novels. Ono
Which bore the title "Buffalo Bill's Se
cret Camp, or Trailing the Cloven
Hoofs," he kept; the other four he gave
to companions. Fired by dime novel
reading, the boy determined to do
something quite as daring as trailing
the cloven hoofs, and not having the
money he proceeded to get It.
Mrs. Cooper swore out a warrant be
fore Alderman Kellow and at an early
hour yesterday morning' Patrolmen
Peters and Hart went to the boy's
home and found him In bed, with the
above-noted paraphernalia tucked un
der him. He admitted taking the purse
and gave as his excuse for purchasing
the revolver that he intended shooting
some one who was stealing his
chickens.
A dollar bill, a EO-cent piece, and two
quarters, all he had left, were found
hidden under the front steps of his
home. Alderman Kellow held him in
$300 bail for his appearance at court.
MEN OF THE HOUR.
Frank J. Foley, for several, years sec
retary of the Scranton Bicycle club
and one of the city's most popular
young men, leaves this week for Pitts
burg, where he has been trasferred
FHANK J. FOI-KV.
by the American Steel Spring com
pany, by whom he Is employed. Ills
fellow-members at the Bicycle club
presented him on Saturday night with
a beautiful gold wntch as a token of
their appreciation of his untiring ef
forts t'j advance the best Inteicsts of
the club. President B. P. Connolly
made the presentation speech, which
was warmly seconded by H, C. Wal
lace. Mr. Foley took an especial Interest
In sports. He was especially fond of
bowling and was everywhere recog
nized as one of the best howlers in the
city. He was a member of tho Black
Dlnmond team, which won tho first
series of games played last season In
tho Northeastern Pennsylvania league,
and his score of 254 Is the highest ever
rolled on tho Bicycle club alleys. Mr.
Foley Is a most .companionable young
man and he leaves behind him a host
of well wishing friends.
It Is seldom that a young man Is
elected to the important olllce of alder
man In a big city like Scranton who
can adapt hlmsolf so readily and ac
ceptably to the duties as Alderman M.
J. Ruddy, of tho Sixteenth ward, has
clone,
He Is probably the youngest alder
man In the state, but his ago Is no dis
paragement to Ills recognized ability,
both as a .lawyer and a dispenser of
Justice. From the beginning of his
career as a public servant, Mr. Ruddy
has fully demonstrated his fitness for
the olllce he holds, and is not only
popular with nil classes, but has a rare
faculty of making friends.

0PP0RTINITV FOR
HIGHER EDUCATION
Reference to tho Tribune's Education
al Contest Made by Rev. Dr.
Pierce in His Sermon.
The Tribune's educational contest
wns wnrmly endorsed yesterdny morn
ing by Rev. Dr. Robert F, Y. Pierce
In the course of a sermon delivered In
the Penn Avenue Baptist church be
fore a large congregntlbn.
The doctor's sermon dealt with tho
lessons which may be drawn from the
sacrifice which God called upon Abra
ham to make the sacrifice of his son.
The doctor pointed out that there are
llres and altars awaiting the saerlllecs
which each one must make on this
earth.
"In the secular life," said he, "we
speak of opportunities. Opportunity is
but another term for .lire and altar.
There are so many opportunities con
fronting our young people today that
there should be no lack of sacrifices.
Look at' the educatlonnl opportunities
which are at present being offered In
our own city through the management
of the Scranton Tribune.
By the personal efforts of Mr. Byxbeo,
the business manager, an opportunity
for a higher education is offered to
our young men and women for the ex
penditure of a little time an expendi
ture not at all commensurate with the
value of the scholarships which will
go to the successful contestants.
"This educational contest Is not
merely a business proposition. It Is a
splendid offer far exceeding anything
of the kind that I have ever heard
of. Wherever there arc young men or
women who are willing and determined
and who can make a persistent effort
to obtain a certain end they havo an
excellent chance of securing for them
selves the prlcesless boon of a good
education.
"The community ought to appreciate
fully the magnificent offer of the Trib
une. I am very glad to see that so
many young people are striving earn
estly In this contest and are. laboring
to secure the educational advantages
offered. I am glad to see that our own
Mr. Keller now Is in tho van."
Dr. Pierce also said the Tribune wns
a model of what a good, clean, dally
newspaper should be an Influence for
education and good In every family It
enters.
POLITICAL MATTERS.
Leaders and prospective candidates
of tho Democracy- met yesterday af
ternoon in Hotel Schadt, to discuss
tomorrow's convention.
It was thought It might be possible
to make a slate that would do away
entirely with Internecine strife, but a
stumbling block was encountered on the
orphans' court Judgeship.
Charles Graf's name was formally
withdrawn from the list of seekers for
the nomination for county commis
sioner, and George Howell was put up
as the candidate for congress.
Tills left the convention with noth
ing to do except decide between T. P.
Hoban and Hon. M. F. Sando as can
didates for orphans' court Judge.
Neither was agreeuble to a proposition
to hne the other selected, and the
slate-makers, with a view of doing
even-handed justice, agreed to let them
light It out In the convention.
Assurances being at hand that George
Howell would accept the nomination,
It was agreed to make him the candi
date. It Is understood thnt tho friends
of .the candidates who are assured of
n nomination are In favor of Howell,
and that a vigorous light will be put
upon the floor of the convention for th&
endorsement of Congressman Connell.
At first they favored the proposition
to let the congressional nomination go
by default, but when reminded that It
would be incumbent, under the rules,
for the county committee to fill the va
cancy, they set out to prevent a vacan
cy by securing the endorsement of tho
Republican candidate.
Tho convention promises to be an In
tel estlng affair,
Tho primaries on Saturday were at
tended with enlivening incidents in
many of the wards, while In others tho
election consisted of the vigilance com
mltteo making out credentials, It Is
paid that no less than a dozen contests
will be submitted to the convention for
adjudication,
Hon John E. Barrett wants tho Re
publican senatorial nomination.' He Is
not so desirous of it that ho would
come out openly and seek It, but his
close friends, who have besought him to
announce himself as a candidate, as
sert that lie would not only accept but
would feel highly complimented with a
nomination. Should It como to a pass
where tho candidates, Messrs. Bourko
and Jordan, were In a deadlock, or
something such, the convention could
count positively on an acceptance from
Mr, Barrett, He himself will only say
that If the nomination came to him
he would accept It.
The Democrats of the Fourth ills,
trlct havo practically settled the Tim-'
llii'llcndrlcks muddle. Bach gentle
man has agreed to withdraw If the
other does and not further seek a
nomination. District Chairman Dug
pan expects to Issue a call for another
convention this week.
Joseph Brcunnu, of Carbondalc; John
Burke, of Archbald, and James McAn
drow, of Archbald, are spoken of as
the likely candidates.
