Dunmore and Meadeville Sus-
pending All Work
Consternation was spread broad-
cast in the Erie shops at Hornells-
ville yesterday when notices were
posted saying that all shops would
be closed until further notice on
account of the pending coal strike.
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.

SPRING ARBOR DAYS
Governor Pennypacker has des
ignated April 6 and Apnl 20 as
spring Arbor days. When the
custom was inaugurated the idea
was to have the practice of tree
planting become universal on those
days. For a few years there was
some enthusiasm in carrying it out,
but of late years there has been
little interest. Occasionally a few
school children plant a tree or two,
Postmaster of Sayre Arrives
Here Today Noon
George D, Bonfoey has received
his commission as postmaster of
Sayre. 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.

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

men, add the Rev. E. C Petrie,
pastor of the Presbyterian church,

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. *
