Practical doois of hard wood, ex tending to the top of the tents, are also being put In. The heat from the oil stoves rises and warms the upper part of the tents and the wainscoting will prevent the cold from coming in at the bottom. Arrangements are being made for putting steam heat in the tents occu pied by Colonel AVatres, Lieutenant Colonel Stlllwell and Adjutant Ather ton, ns well as In the two big headquar ters tents. The steam will be piped front the boilers at the Grassy Island mine. A trench for conveying the pipes was being dug yesterday by a de tail of prisoners from the guard house. Colonel Wat res and the field and staff otllcers of the Thirteenth attend ed a temperance rally conducted last night by the Catholic Total Abstinence societies of Olyphnnt and vicinity In Father Mathew hall.

The cniup of the Governor's troop, on the hill to the east of the Thirteenth's camp, was In "applo pie" order yester day afternoon, The troop, under the guidance) of several of tho ofllcers of the Thirteenth, made Its first tour last night, going as far north as Peckville. Tho troopers were put for over two hours, returning about 10 o'clock, MANY VISITORS. The camp of the Twelfth regiment in North Scran ton was thronged all day yesterday with hundreds of visitors. Tho rules regarding admission to this camp an far less strict than at cither the Eighth or Thirteenth, the sentries making no objection to any respectable person passing the guard line. The tents were all up yesterday morning, and details were husy all day digging sinks and putting up bath houbfcs. Lumber for tent floors bus been secured, utid these will be con structed and put ill, beginning today, Company and battalion drills were conducted In the afternoon In the field to the west of the camp ground, and dress parade was held at 1,80 o'clock on the vacant space Just east of the camp. , Colonel Clements said yesterday that there is no possibility of his regiment being divided. It has been separated into two battaliona almost since the be ginning of the strike, and General Gob In assured the colonel when the regi ment came to this city that It would be kept united until relieved from duty, Companies F and G, of the Fourth regiment, which have been attached to the Eighth since the first call for troops, left Cainp Norrls, near Duryea, yesterday morning, to rejoin their bat talions at Plymouth and Nantlcoke. To the Voters "It Is not every county which can present such a showing In the man agement of Its finances ns can Lackawanna this year: but then It Is not every county which can boast of commissioners who not only venture to cut the rate of taxation squarely In half, but who actually follow that up by showing a clean reduction of outstanding Indebtedness from $315,000 to $100, dOO, or well nigh DO per cent. The only possible Inference from such an ex hibit is that Commissioner) Franz, Flanaghan and Halstead, Instead of In dulging in loud talk, have been quietly sawing wood. And from what l ' have seen of their methods, this Is precisely the milk In the cocoanut. They are business men first and politicians afterward. And the outcome of their labors would seem to clinch the contention that this is the order will, o taxpayers most need." In the Interest of the people of this county permit me to call your attention to the fact that In addition to standing resolutely for honest government I have been an aggressive and persistent fighter for Improvement on'the county roads, bridges und other affairs under the jurisdiction of the County Commissioner and a watchful guardian of the county's finances. I have not the means to hire carriages on election day and have no committeemen to extoll my virtues from the street corners, but I do go before you as a plain, honest citizen, who promises, if elected, his best service, and one who can point to his past record as a guarantee of what may be expected of me In the future. WILLIAM FRANZ. Company A, of the Eighth regiment, went to West Plttston yesterday morn ing to do special patrol duty uiound the Lehigh Valley collieiies in opera tion theic. The member.'- of the command were sttuiig around at vari ous points and kept a close watch to prevent interference with any of the men nt work. Company II, under command of Captain Owens, relieved Company A at 0 o'clock and remained at the scene all night. It will be le lleved by still another company this morning. Tile condition of Colonel T. F. Hoff man was reported to be still serious last night. Captain Hoffman, his son and the adjutant of the regiment, was with him all yesterday afternoon and last night at the Moses Taylor hospital. DICKSON CITY RESOLUTIONS.

I have (lied nomination papers for my candidacy for the office of County Commissioner and such move was made only upon the urgent request of many friends who, In the Interest of good government, directed me to this duty, My nomination papers bore the endorsement of 292 sound representative citizens of this community. Having taken up the fight, I appeal to the voters of this county to consider my position and recognize the character of my past record. With no small amount of pride I point to the following notice which appeared In the Scranton Tribune, THE MARKETS Wall Street Review. New Yolk, Oct. 10. Today's enily de cline hi pi ices of stocks repiuseitted the leticat of the operators who ban bought yesterday under the liispiiatioii of the current minors of an imminent settle ment of the coal stiike. The decline cav iled some bear selling as an Incident and the small rall nt the close represented the coveilng by this room trading ele ment. The closing Itself was heavy. Af-i-r the opening selling the market be came wholly professional lu its piopoi' tlons and ine total dealings foi lliu day Jell well below half a million shares. The lact of the ee of tho Jewish day of atonement was an incidental factor in tho glowing dullness of the market and tlio alsposliina lo close up conlinct. so Hint the nuukct fell Into practical stag nation late in the day. The inference is warranted fiom this state of affairs that speculative operation has settled into a feeling ot resignation to a waiting mar ket, pending tne relief of the money .stringency, or some tangible development indicating the prospect of a settlement of tho coal stiike. The resumption today of conferences and tho passing of messen gers back and forth from J. P. Moi can's office to that of the political leaders who 'aie attempting a. settlement and n per sonal couicrenee between tlioso leaoeis and a numbci of coal load presidents were without nppaicnt effect in ie-awak-ening esteidaj's hope that a settlement was at hand. Prices continued to drop throughout the period of tho conferences and upon their adjournment with the an nouncement that the situation remained unchanged, there wns the upward move ment of prices due to the bear covering movement above icferred to. Total sales for the day. ftit.dOu shares. The bond market was dull and casv. Total sales, par value, $1,000,010. I'nited Stales bonds Mere all unchanged on the last call.
