The men had been given no inti mation that the shops would be closed and the announcement came like a thunderbolt. The notice came from headquarters at New York and the shops affected arc both for car and engine répair and construction, a total of 450 men being turned out of employment by the shut-down. Similar no tices were also posted at the Eric shops in Dunmore and Meadeville. The news of the Erie shops shutting down has led to the in- quiry: “Will the Lehigh filow suit?” So far as could be learned today, the officials of the Lehigh have no intentions of closing the shops located at this place. With- in the past week, however, there has been severa) rumors that some- thing of an unusual character was to occur in comnection with the shops. It has Reen frequently as. serted that there was to be a big layoff on April 1, but this notice cannot be officially confirmed. This morning the rumor was given new impetts and there are some of the opinion that there is fo be at least a large number of the mea laid off on the first of the coming month. Whether this will prove to be the case time only will tell. The men employed in the shops do not look upon the rumor as being anything to cause uneasiness. PERSONAL MENTION Judge E. M.

The document arrived here today noon. It is signed by Presi dent Theodore Roosevelt and George B. Cortelyou, postmaster general, and recites that beginning | the ninth day of March, 1906, Mr. Bonfoey shall be the postmaster at this place for a term of four years. Mr. Bonfoey will not assume the | duties of the office, however, until | April 1. In connection with the receipt of the commission Post- master Bonfoey announces that he has appointed J. Henry Price as deputy postmaster. Mr. Price has been the deputy postmaster for several years during which time he has given excellent satisfaction, and the announcement that he is to re- main will be received with general satisfaction. The remainder of the clerical force will be retained, with the exception of the deputy post- master all of them coming under the civil service regulations. , Postmaster Bonfoey, who has been chief clerk in the division freight office of the Lehigh fons some time, has tendered his resig- | nation to take effect on April 1 It is quite probable that Harry Spencer, way bill clerk in the local freight office, will be appointed to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Mr. Bonfoey. i LACKAWANNA MEN GET INCREASED PAY Result of Conference Recently Held at Scranton is Highly Satisfactory to the Employes of That Road. As a result of the conference held in Scranton last week between the Brotherhood of Railroad Con- ductors and officials of the Lacka- wanna railroad, there will be an in crease of wages in all branches of the sggvice on that road. The in- crease in wages will go into effect on the first of the coming month and puts the Lackawanna far ahead of any other road in the east. Passenger conductors are to res ceive £3.60 for the first 100 miles and four tenths of a cent for each additional mile. Baggagemen are to receive $2.10 for the first 100 miles and one fourth of a cent for each additional mile. On local freights the conductors are to res ceive $230 per 100 miles. On main runs the men are to receive an increase 40 cents per day. The rate has been fixed as $2 30 per 100 miles, on 11 hour basis, with one hour allowed far dinner. At present all is pleasant between the men and the officials of the Road of Anthracite, and the news of the increase of wages has been re- ceived with great rejoicing among the railroad men. FUNERAL TOMORROW The + funeral of Julius Hoyt Smith will occur from his late home, No. 104 Allison street, to morrow afternoon at 12:30 o'clock.

It the Laws to be Printed in Foreign Languages Much trouble has been ex- perienced by the game protectors in the state in keeping foreigners, chiefly Italians, in check. In this and other sections of the state Italians in the spring time will shoot robins. In some instances they have been apprehended and made to pay the extreme penalty. Some of the foreigners are ac- quaintcd with the game laws while | § others are not. Game Com- missioner Kolbfus has hit upon an excellent idea to prevent the for- cigners breaking the law. This idea is to have copies of the game laws and large posters printed in the Italian and other foreign lan- guages, and to have them posted at all places where the men reside, so that they can be read by them. These posters will be posted in every county along the various railroads and their branches, and will doubtless have a beneficial ef- fect. It is hoped by this means that the foreigners will become acs quainted with laws protecting game and will profit thereby. * IMPERIAL MINSTRELS Dimmock & Dunn's All-Star minstrels will appear at the Loomis opera house on Tuesday, and Wednesday evenings of next week.
