One or Tuo Mtiy Jteqlllre Morn Tlmo to (let tlie Wutel Out. The order for nil tbo Philadelphia & Heading Coal & Iron Company's collieries to resume operations on full time six days a week nnd ten hours a tiny still holds good, but only two collieries nro able to take ndvautngo of It These are the Tu.-key Run nudMnplo Hillcolllerie-, They worked full time yesterday and to day. The issuance of the order was not due to any pressure brought to bear by the bituminous strike and it is not believed that it will remain in force after all the collieries are ready for operation. A prominent mine ofhclal said yesterday, "I do not think It means full tlmo for all. but rather full time for nil the collieries that can work to keep all the coal that would be supplied by all the mines work ing tnree-quarter time ior lour uoys a week." This belief Pectus to be general. When the collieries now stalled by water nre made ready tho company will revoke its full time order and put all mines on the same working tlmo that prevailed before the freshets. Extra efforts are being put forth to get the Kohlnoor colliery in operation again. Yesterday an additional pump was nut into the mine. It Is a largo one of the regular 1'. x It. pattern. Tills mine will not resume operations before Monday. Indeed, It Is not thought that nny of the mines at tins pince now reauy can ue put in operation uetore tuut time, Kehlev Run colliery will also comnlete a week of Idleness. Superintendent Dalrd said last night tlint the two remaining days will be used to get ready for steady work next week. The Knickerbocker and Ellengowan collieries are still idle and will remain so until next week.

Some sensational renorts have been cir. cuiated concerning tho safety of the rniindeipuiacc iieainnguoniiK ironuom panv's Anthracite dam near Yntesville. but an investigation shows that there is no necessity for npprebension. It seems that there are some largo cracks In the wall at the wclr of tho dam and people who happened to see them jumped to the conclusion that tho breastwork was giving away. Officials visited the plnce and they wero assured by the watchmen that the cracks were old ones, caused early last winter by heavy frosts. A careful examination was made and resulted in the conclusion that the cracks were superllclal and the breastwork was perfectly sound. However, to allay all apprehension. Mine Foremnn Joseph kuapp, of the Knickerbocker colliery, sent a number of men to the place and by making a waste way about four feet wide at the cast end of the breastwork suc ceeded in drawing enough water to relievo tbe cracked portion of tho wall of all strain.
