NO BIDS RECEIVED.
Contractors Apparently Not Anxious
to Construct the Nineteenth Dis
trict Sewer.
Bids for the construction of the big
Nineteenth district sewer were to have
been opened yesterday afternoon at 3
o'clock, but there were no bids to open.
Director of Public Works Roche de
cided to let the advertisements run for
one more week, bids to bo opened next
Monday.
When asked to explain the reason for
tho failure of sewer contractors to bid,
he said:
"It's hard to tell just what the trouble
Is, but I'm Inclined to think that it is
the size of the bond required from the
contractor for the faithful perform
ance of the contract. There is u pro
vision In the 'ripper' net which requires
the city to insist upon n bond for half
the amount of the engineer's estimate
of the cost of construction.
"The engineer's estimate of the cost
of this sewer is $180,000, so that the
bond required is $90,000, a very large
sum. We have been Insisting on trust
company bonds, nnd In order to secure
such a bond the contractor is required
to put up collateral security, which
some contractors anxious to bid might
find it hard to do.
"The sewer contracts let under this
act up to the present time have nil
been small and the contractors have
had no difficulty id furnishing bonds. I
nm hopeful, however, that ue will be
nble to get a bid. A Philadelphia con
tractor was on here looking over the
ground last week, but was not able to
secure data in time to make a bid."
Director Roche is especially deslruus
of having the contract awarded soon,
because, he says, a great deal of the
work can be done dining the winter
months, particularly the work of tun
nelling, of which there will be consider
able. A well-known sewer contractor said
last night to a Tribune man that he be
lieved there would have been blddera
had tho engineer's estimute been higher.
He expressed a belief that Instead of
$180,000 it should bo $223,000, because of
tho fact that the payment of only about
twenty per cent, of the contract price
is guaranteed by the city.

ORDER HAS BEEN
FULLY RESTORED
Lackawanna County Was Wholly
Free Yesterday from Any Se
rious Disturbances.
TROOP OF CAVALRY ON THE SCENE
Infantry Will Be Relieved of Some of Its Most Arduous
Duties Conflicting Claims Regarding the Effect of
the Troops on the General Strike Situation.
Because the troopers had not oppor
tunity to acquaint themselves with the
lay of the country, Colonel Watres did
not call on them to do duty last night.
Today they will be sent out with guides
on a tour of the valley and tonight,
they will bo detailed to do patrol duty.
Tho coming of the ttoopers was no
more welcome to the men of the Thir
teenth than the reappearance of the
aum for four hours yesterday afternoon
CAPTAIN G. C. MKRRIMAX,
Of Companv P.
after an almost continuous absence
of fllve days. Last evening's rain was
a sore disappointment ns it was thought
tho wet season was at an end. With
fair weather today, coupled with the
prospect of assistance from the cavalry
men, tho life of the Infantrymen will
be made much more endurable.
There are now about 1,200 soldiers
encamped in Lacknwannn county. The
Eighth has, or today will have, eleven
companies of 530 rneifj nnd tho Thir
teenth has eleven companies of r40
men.
Nothing of a startling nature was re
ported by the patrols that came in jes
terday morning, ifter having covered
the valley from Scranton to Archbalil.
Lieutenant Bielg and Sergeant Major
Vail, with a detachment of thirty-two
men, dispersed a small gathering of
stt liters at the Marvlne, yesterday
morning, without encounteiing any
show of resistance.
A detail of three men In command of
Lieutenant Richard Thomas, of Com
pany A, put In an afternoon at city
hall yesterday afternoon and created
no little surprise. The soldiers hung
around the conidors until Patrolman
James McGouldrlck put In an appear
ance, he having come to draw his
salary. The patiolmun, who Is n mem
ber of Company C, and who failed to
report, for duty was placed under ar
rest and taken to camp. He had .sup
posed his position as patrolman excused
him from mllltaiy duty, and only on
this account neglected to report at the
camp.
CIRCULAR PROM CLERGY.
Pastors of the Forest City churches
have issued a strong circular to their
people appealing to them to maintain
order.
Private Rietan, of Company G ac
cldently shot himself and his tent mate,
Private Haw ley. In camp, yesterday
morning, Rrctan was cleaning a 22
calibie revolver when It was accidental
ly discharged. The bullet cut through
the front part of tho middle finger of
his left hand and then struck Hnwiey
In the right cheek just below the outer
coiner of 'the eye, flattening' Itself
against tho cheek bone. Assistant
Surgeons Gunster and Arndt extracted
the bullet und drebsed both wounds at
the hospital, after which the men re
turned to their company, Neither was
Incapacitated from duty. Colonel
Waties ordered all enlisted men to
turn In their revolvers to their cap
tains. Pilvato Williams of Company D, was
stricken with an epileptic tit while doing
duty at Jessup, yesterday morning, In
fulling his head Htruck a rail and he
sustained a cut on his lip and ear. The
hospital corps went after him with a
stretcher and took him hack to camp
on tho troop train, Ho had recoveied
at noon,
Tho Tlilitceutli regiment ambulance,
which wus put chased in 1S8S by u pub
lic subscription, started by The Tribune
and which has been in use at the Hah
nemann hospital, wus yesterday taken
to camp. Slajor Whitney brought on
a pair of livery horses from Honesdalo
to haul tho ambulance, Thu stuff of
ficers are bringing their horses to camp,
They will be boarded In un Olyphant
livery stable,
A QUIET DAY.
It was expected thut yesterday would
see In these parts u repetition of the
disturbances which characterized the
two preceding Mondays and the days
immediately following them, but these
expectations wore far from being realiz
ed. Yesterduy was quite as free from
disorder us any duy of the strike.
The disorderly element uniong the
strikers have seemingly come to realize
the soldiers are out for business and as
every locality In which disorder has
been wont to occur Is patrolled by
Colonel Wutres' men, those who might
be Inclined to continue the lawlessness
are held In check.
The fact that the presence of the
soldiers bus not resulted In any appre
ciable accessions to tho ranks of tho
workmen ut the collieries bus also had
a tendency to ttlluy disorder, The com
- - IBPt -"'Hi
ing of the troops, seemingly, had a
tendency to make some of the reckless
spirits, si bit desperate, but when It was
seen the troops did not affect the strike
situation Itself, one way or other, these
reckless spirits were disposed to be less
aggressive.
SOME DESERTIONS.
The compuny superintendents main
tain that when the lawlessness is per
manently suppressed and It Is seen that
the troops can guarantee protection,
there will be so many desertions from
the strikers' ranks, by men who have
only been kept from working by fear
of violence, that the strike will be sure
ly broken.
The mine workers leaders, on the
other hand, aver that the presence of
the troops Is driving men out of the
mines and back Into the union ranks
and that if the present ratio of deser
tions from the companies' side continues
a little while longer the few colleries
that have been started up will have to
shut down again.
The companies admit there have been
some desertions from the mines during
the past week, but nssert that the num
ber has been so small as to be not worth
noting. The cause of these desertions
the superintendents all say Is the dread
Inspired by the "reign of terror" of the
fore part of last week. Already the de
serteis are returning to tho mines, it
is claimed, and new accessions' to the
ranks are of dally occurence.
No new collieries started up, yester
day. In this region, but before the week
is out, It is claimed, several places will
be gotten under way. At United Mine
Workers' headquarters It was given out
that fifty men quit work during the
day. Of these thirty-six were from the
West Scranton and Piovldencc collieries
it was said. The others were fiom col
lieries in Olyphant and Carbondale.
Nothing would be said by any one
at strikers headquarters concerning the
visit of the national and district presi
dents to Philadelphia. It wns even
denied they were In Philadelphia until
the press despatches came with an ac
count of their movements In the city
of Brotherly Love.
Mr. Loomis met a number of old
Delavure, Lackawanna and Western
miners in the mining engineers' oflice
at the Lackuwannn station, yesterday
afternoon. "We just had a heart-to-heart
talk, that's all," said Mr. Loomis,
when asked what had taken place nt
the meeting. "There were some old
time employes of the company who
wanted to see me, nnd whom 1 wanted
to see. We talked over the situation us
man to man. That's all I can say about
the matter."
At a meeting of the ways and means
committee of the North Scmnton
strikers held in St. Mary's hall. West
Market stieet, on Monday, Sept. 2!),
1P02, the following resolutions were
passed:
Rpsolved, ttv the sooral locals of tho
North End, of which this ways and means
committee is the representative, that
those now woiklng and wishing to return
to tho fnlted Mine Workcis, may do so
by severing their connection as unfair
men and coming back to their different
locals, i'hev are guaranteed they will Lo
tuKiu rate of. By order of
Waj s and Means Committee.
CAVALRY TROOP HAS
ARRIVED IN CAIHP
The Sheiidnu tioop, of Tyrone, Blair
county, arrived in Olyphant at 6 o'clock
yesterday morning, and is now en
camped on the hillside overlooking the
Thirteenth's location.
The troop Is composed of fifty-eight
men und five officer?, nnd all but three
of the men nie on hand. The call came
at 1 o'clock Sunday afternoon. It wns
necrssary to send couriers sixteen miles
for some of the men, but despite this
fact, tho troop with its horses was
icidy to leave its urmory at 8 o'clock,
and did leave at 10 o'clock. A' car con
taining its tents and other camp equip
ment, from the state arsenal, was at
tached to the train nt Sunbury.
Quartermaster Vanillins, of tho Thir
teenth, had rations for the men, and
feed and bedding for tho horses, all
ready when tho tioop arrived, and be
sides, had partly laid out the camp site
for it. The troopers went at once at
the ork of fixing up their 'camp und
beforo nlglitfnll everything was in
ship-shape fashion.
The tjoop is commanded by Captain
C. K. W, Jones, who was a captain of
cuvulry in the Civil war und a major
In command of a squadron under Gen
eral Miles In Porto Rico, during tho
Spunlsh-Ameiican war. Tho other offi
cers are; First Lleutennnt U P. Craw
ford, Second Lieutenant II, S. Fleck,
As:ilsant Surgeon J. L. Hrubaker,
Quartermaster It. A, Zeutmeyer,
The troop was organized hi 1871 nnd
Is tho second oldest cuvulry organlzn
'tlon In tho state. It served in the 1ST7
strike, the Homestead strike In 1S92,
tho Jeffeihon county riots In 1891 and
the Spunlsli-Anieiicun wur, More tliun
hulf tho men now In the troop served
In tho Porto Rico campaign. They are
u sturdy-looking lot, mostly farmers'
sons, .and every one of them Is un ex
pert horseman.
EIGHT REGIMENT
HAS A QUIET DAY
An uneventful day was passed yes
terduy by the two battalions of the
Eighth regiment, which have gone Into
cump at the extreme lower end of
Lackuwunnu county, between Lacka-
walihii und Duryen. No disturbances
of any kind were reported In the neigh
borhood of the camp and not details
were sent out,
The Third battalion of the regiment,
comprising Company 1, of HnnisbUrBi
Company C, of Chambersburg, nnd
Company O, of Carlisle, which was left
behind at Shenandoah, In expected to
arrive cither today or tomorrow. It
will be replaced ut Shenandoah, It Is
understood, by a battalion from tho
Twelfth regiment.
In expectation of Its coming, a detail
of men wus ut work, yesterday nftcr
noon, constructing board floors for the
tents which will bo sent on' ahead, In
charge of un uftvancc detail.
The presence of the Eighth regiment
near Duryea has had the effect of
quieting things down remarkably In
that locality. Tho camp Is surrounded
at all times by a curious crowd of on
lookers, but there Is no jeering or hoot
ing nt the soldiers, such as has mani
fested Itself nt other places.
SOLDIERS PAID.
The members of tho eight companies
In camp were paid yesterday afternoon
for tho month ending last Saturday.
Each company was lined up In the
company streets and the roll called,
under the supervision of the battalion
majors. Extra precautions will be
taken to prevent any of the men from
celebrating pay day. As It Is, the very
strictest discipline prevails and no one
Is permitted to leave camp except on a
pass Issued by the colonel.
The Eighth regiment camp Is an Ideal
one In many respects. The location
could not be finer. The site chosen la
about midway between the Lackawan
na and Duryea Lackawanna railroad
stations on the top of a high bank,
which runs up from the railroad tracks.
The camp ground slopes gradually
from the edge of this embankment, af
fording almost perfect drainage. The
ground was almost entirely dry yester
day afternoon, though the sun was out
for only a part of the day. The two
hundred and more tents comprising the
camp are set up with uniform regu
larity and the casual observer would
fancy, looking at the settled aspect of
things, that tho regiment had been In
camp for weeks, Instead of only three
days.
During1 the present week, If thero Is
no disorder requiring their attention,
the soldiers will be put through a
series of company nnd battalion drills
on the field to the east of the camp
ground. Among those In the crowd surround
ing the camp yesterday afternoon wns
National Organizer Memelo, of the
United Mine Workers of America. He
gathered a large crowd of strikers
about him and exhorted them to treat
the troops with every courtesy and re
frain from disorder and breaches of the
DPaco.
Captain J. B. Fisher, of Company D,
was surprised at camp on Saturday
night lust by the presentation of a
beautiful sword, the gift of the mem
bers of his command. The presenta
tion speech was made by Colonel Hoff
man. Suregon Peters says the health of the
regiment Is splendid, and but one sick
case has been reported since uir'ing
here. ,
Colonel Hoffman's headquarters, which
are located on tho brow of the hill over
looking the liver, have been connected
with the new telephone and the long
distance 'phone will be put in this week,
so the regiment will be In easy com
munication. All the necessary canvas for officers'
tents did not arrive with the special
car on Thursday and the colonel tele
phoned to Hnrrisburg to have It shipped
on. It is expected within a day or two.
RECENT OUTBREAKS
HERE AND NEARBY
David J. Thomas, a fireman employed
by the Hillside Coal and Iron company,
at Forest City, living one and a half
miles out of town, was ambushed by
about twenty-five strikers and shot at
while on his way home from work on
Saturday evening. His horse was shot
In the eye and body and will die. Mr.
Thomas was not hurt and fired three
shots at his assailants, which had the
effect of f lightening them away. Yes
terday ho moved his family Into town
and Is still nt work.
David Owens, son of Mine Superin
tendent W. D. Owons of the Exeter col
liery, has been subjected to much abuse
by strikers. Owens lives on Hlver
street, Sturmervlllc, und hus been
working nt the Exeter colliery. A few
nights ago, while he was at work and
only his wife und family ut home, his
residence was the turget of n fusilade
of stones and many of tho windows
were broken. Ho determined to move
from the place to a house on Deiawaro
avenue, West Plttston, and piepared to
cart his household goods thither, yes
terday. A crowd of stiikcis guthe,red
In tho vicinity, however, and made
things decidedly unpleasant by their In
terference, The goods were finally
moved, under the protection of u force
of coal and Iron policemen,
The situation In Exeter Is acute, nnd
it is feared theie 'will yet bo very seri
ous disturbances. A majority of the
population Is of the foreign element
und shows u very unruly und restless
disposition. Officials of the Valley com
pany have received Information that
last Tuesday's affair was thoroughly
premeditated and that a meeting of the
foreigners wus held yesterday and a
decision reached to make a raid on the
stockade, fence with axes and wicck it.
