PRESIDENT MGLEOD
TALKS ONTHE DEAL
HE SAYS IT WILL BENEFIT
ALL CONCERNED
WILL REGULATE THE MARKET
Antl Supplant 11 Spirit of Undue and
Perhaps Unfriendly Competition by
Xlfirmonlouft Action, AVI 1 ere by Fair
Hates W1U be Maintained.
AN INTERVIEW
on Wednesday A. A.
MoL'od, presidont of
tho Philadelphia &
Reading Railroad
Company, gave a few
hints of how the re
cent consolidation of
tho railroad and coal business will b-i shaped
for goneral benefit. Mr. McLeod said that
coal cannot continue to be sold at present
price; at points long distances from the
mines without impoverishing everybody
concerned in tho business and causing a
general reduction of wages. The capital,
resources and labor are now taxed as mat
ters now stand, ho said.in order that distant
points may be. supplied at loss than bare
cost, while our own consumers along the
lino of the road nocessarily pay the prices
required to keep the business moving. To
meet this situatiou, and to provide the
natural remedy, tho principal mining and
transportation companies have como to
gether, and propose to supplant a spirit of
undue and perhaps unfriendly competition
by harmonious' action and to endeavor to
establish and maintain fair and equitable
rates and prices at all points which have a
just and proper relation in respect to the
services renderod.
In connection with what has been said
and written concerning the roduction of
train service and tho discharge of employee
on the lines, Mr. McLqod said they were
exaggerated. The restriction of produc
tion, he said, means fewer trains, and con
sequently the suspension of a large number
of men until there is a demand for coal and
the mines are again working on full time
Speaking further in connection with the re
duction of tho force of employe the presi
dent said tho public should not lose eight of
the fact that it is a necessary incident, if not
one of the objects of such alliances as we
have formed, that many practical business
economies can be effected, and that the un
necessary duplication of ofEc:' and officers
and salaries and supernumeraries of vari
ous kinds can be done away with. This Ib
now being accomplished In a measure, but
nothing more. Such economies invariably
produce better service at a lower cost to the
patrons of the road.
Speaking on tho purpose, of the alliance
President MoLeod said: "Tho Impression
Baems to prevail that tho alliance of those
roads was formed solely for tho purpose of
controlling the anthracite coal tra'Je, but
that forms only ono of the many element
involved. It was of the most vital con
sequence to each and all of these lines to
be placed in a position to meet the compe
tition of tho pioat trunk lines in every re
spect. Having attained this position, it
will be policy to give tho public tho motl
prompt and efficient servico at as low rales
89 are compatible with the service re
quired, and, at the same time, to provide
for the Reading's stockholders, who have
waited for many years for some return
upon their investment, some adequate
compensation for the doiay. The Reading
is naturally enough tho parent of tho coal
trade. For many years sho has carried an
investment of upward of ?72,000,000 at
high rates of interest- without any return.
This burden, accompanied by a lack of
proper and timely development of her un
paralleled resources, has stood in the way
of her assuming her proper and natural
position in the trade. Hor resources have
always been sufficient to warrant tho pay
ment of dividends on her stock, but they
have been permitted to lie dormant while
others have usurped the. place belonging to
her by right of priority in the field. How
that the depletion of the coal estates has
reached the point whore her residuum
must soon bo called upon to (furnish ton
nage not only for her own but to other
lines, it is both natural and proper that
she should take Ihe initiative and exert a
groater influence in the conduct of the
business."

THE SMALL BOY'S PARADISE,
Ills (Ireatcst Happiness U Found In tho
Circus.
"The elephant will walk around and the
band begin to play1' on Monday, May 9,
when tho Adam Forepaugh SbowB will
exhibit here, and the small boy is conse
quentiy in the seventh Ileaven of dolight.
Wo are all more or less small boys in that
respect for after all is said and done there is
nothing that brings so much real enjoy
ment as the circus. "Circus" is a most
compreheniivo term in this connection for
the Forepaugh "circus" is not only
circus, which includes th great Vaidis
Sisters in their double, revolving trapeze
act, but it has also a genuine Moorish
Circus Co., a menagerie, a museum, an
aviary, an equescurriculum, a hippodrome,
a groat stroet parade and a spsctacle The
Fall of Ninoveh. With all those featuros,
save tho spectacle, the public is already
more or less familiar, and it has been like
something bearing a semblance, of a spec
tacle Rut, judging from reliable news
paper reports, The Fall of NInovoh is a
spectacle upon such a scale of real mngnifl
conco and grandeur that it so overshadows
prs'Ious attempts at spectacular display
that it misht fairly bo sail that the real,
genuino thing in the way of a spectacle has
yet not boon Been. The Fall of Nineveh
is the production of Rottig, tho world
famous creator and originator of the great
out-door exhibitions s The Fall of Babylon,
Rome Under Nero and several others of
that style. The Fall of Nineveh is his
latest and greatost work and is the first of
his mammoth original spectacles to be
shown in connection with a tented exhibi
tion. All others havo been but spurious,
feeble imitations. Groat interest attaches
to tho coming of tho Adam Foropaugh
Shows and the Fall dfNinoveh, and all
tho boys and girls, old and young, will
want to seo them,

the latter a well known

and this town. Mrs,
Stain, a rather good
looking' Polish wo
man 20 years of age,
lived with her husband and infant child in
Now Philadelphia. Mrs. Stain and
"Charloy" Zuncs have eloped and,
according to accounts, the couple are now
located in or near Butto City, Montana.
They left this town togethor, with Mrs
Stain's baby, last Saturday.
On Tuesday last Chief of Police Davis,
of town, received a letter from Justice of
the Peace Devino, of Now Philadelphia,
asking that a watch bo kept for the woman,
but, of course, the notice was three days
late and the police could do nothing in the
matter.
An investigation by a Hkhald reportor
bIiows that "Charley" Zuncs, who was at
one time a saloon keeper in this town,
and has figured in a like capacity in Potts
vlllo the past fow years, came to this town
last week and disposed of his property
here. Ho was joined by Mrs. Stain and
her infant child and on Saturday last the
trio left town for Butte City, Montana, the
baggage being shippod in tho name of
"Frank Greon." Since that time nothing
has been hoard of the couple, saye on an
nouncement in a Pottsvilie paper that a
man named Stain residing in Now Phila
delphia has been desorted by his wife, who
is alleged to havo carried away her infant
child and some money belonging to
boarders in the house. Tho money alleged
to have been taken formed the bails of a
charge of larceny, upon which Justico
Devino requested the Chief of Polico of
this town to arrest Mts. Stain.
