FLEE LAND, PA., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1895.
COAL GOES HIGHER.
Price to Tlclewuter Points Advanced To
day liy tlio Corporal bins.
Another advance in the price of an
thracite coal will be made today by the
corporations which control the trade.
This change will appply only to tide
water points, but in all probability an
other advance will he made to the Phila
delphia and line trade on November 1.
While the time has not been fully agreed
upon it is likely that the days mentioned
will he the ones on which the new prices
will go iiLto effect. There is hardly any
doubt but that tho city coal dealers are
getting anxious in regard to their stock
of coal, and besides, as the price is go
ing up, thdy are doing all they can t<
secure a large amount before anothei
advance is made.
During the summer months, when con)
was selling at a low figure, thoro win
considerable coal laid in by the dealers,
but during tho last few weeks tho de
mand lias been so great that tho stock
has been used up, and they are impor
tuning the coal companies to deiivei
coal to them as speedily as possible.
Besides this there is a shortage in do
mestic prepared sizes, and the coal com
panies cannot begin to iiil their orders
for stove and egg.
Tho companies have "been short of
these two sizes for some time, and not
withstanding that tlio Reading lias in
creased its tonnage there is not enough
of these sizes on iiand to meet all the re
quirements. At New York thoro lias
been a big demand for egg and stove foi
a number of weeks, but owing to the
scarcity the demafid could not be accom
modated.
The new circular which is set to go
into effect today is as follows: Broken.
§3.75; egg, §3.90; stove, §4.15; chestnut.
§3.90. These prices apply to New York
tidewater points only. On November I
the price of coal to the city and line
trade will be as follows: Broken, §2.25;
egg. §2.05; stove, §2.85, and chestnut,
§2.50. These prices are for coal at the
mines, (o which the freight must be
added, whicli is §1.70 on coal from the
Schuylkill and §1.75 from the Lehigh
regions.
Notwithstanding the enormous ad
vance in price to city consumers by the
corporations the miners have not yet
been notified, except in one instance,
that they will share in the increase.
When coal began to fall in price the
mine employes wero reduced in wages
with the first cut in rates. That they
are unjustly dealt with by their em
ployers is shown in (lie hitter's tardiness
to increase the wages to tho rate paid
when coal was high before.
Birthday Anniversaries
Yesterday was tho forty-fifth anniver
sary of Dr. E. W. Butter's birth? and
tho event was not allowed to pass un
noticed by the friends of the doctor.
Instead, they assembled in a body and
took possession of the Butter residence
on Chestnut street, much to tho surprise
of tho owner. Until a late hour the
merry party enjoyed the evening and
the' hospitality of Councilman Butter
and wife, in honor of tho event the
doctor was presented with a very com
fortable plush rocker. Cyrus Roifen
burger mado the presentation on behalf
of tho donors, and the same was appro
priately responded to by Mr. Butter.
At the same hour a similar event was
transpiring in another part of town.
Tho day was tlio thirty-fiftß birthday of
Frank DoPierro, and his relatives de
cided to make it one of the happiest*of
his life. About 9 o'clock upwards of
fifty relatives had assembled in tho large
dining room of DePiorro Bros. cafe.
DePierro's orchestra was present, and
opened tlio excorclses of the evening
with an overture, which was just ending
when Frank was called from ids position
on the first floor. The sight that met
his eyes was certainly a surprise, and
when informed that tho splendid ban
quet before them was in his honor lie
could scarcely thank his friends for their
tTioughtfulness. However, lie was more
than astonished when Genoro Bonomo
stepped forward and in a neat
short speech presented him witli a
little box, tlio "Compliments of Your
Relatives,'* containing a pretty and
valuable diamond pin, handsomely set
in solid gold. Tho gift was so unex
pected that for some time Mr. DePiorro
could not respond. He finally succeeded
in thanking them, and made it pleasant
for all until the gathering dispersed at
12 o'clock.
Coul Production of the Stiite.
According to the reports from the
mining regions 011 tin: mining of coal in
1804, which will soon bo issued liy the
internal affairs department, tlio total
anthracite and bituminous production
was 85,300,380 tons, a decrease from
1303 of 5,205,072. There wore produced
45,500,170 tons of anthracite, or 1,073,334
tons less than in 1883, and 30,800,210
tons of bituminous coal, a decrease of
3,021,179 tons.
There was an Increase over 1803 of
7,051 employes and 220,872 men were
employed in and about tho mines. The*
strike and general depression In busi
ness caused the decrease of production
In tlie bituminous region and hard times
wero felt in that region in a greater de
gree than in tho anthracite region.
A Pl} mouth Mine Is Burning.
The tiro which has been burning in
the Dataware and Hudson Company's
- No. 5 mine at Plymouth since Monday
morning, grows inoro serious, and the
officials appear to be getting very tin
easy about it. Early yesterday morning
the firemen were doing good work and
they felt sure of having the fire in the
coal extinguished by last evening. Hut
about 2 o'clock one of the pumps, which
furnished the greater force of water,
broke down. This left only one supply,
that received from the borough plugs.
The lire burned fiercely all the forenoon
and was making a steady gain.
In tho afternoon the machine corps
was put to work connecting other
pumps. This was finished in a few
hours and the firemen were once more
i in possession of a good supply of water,
four streams being played on the burn
ing coal all day. The lire is burning ii
the direction of the plane and the pillars
ire threatened. All the props have
been burned out and the roof Is falling
continually. The firemen cannot get
near enough to do telling work.
In conversation with some of the
miners, who are familiar with the mine,
they gave as their opinion that the mine
will have to be flooded in order to extin
guish the fire. They further say that
unless this is promptly done there nun
be a terrible squeeze, which will throw
the mine idle for some time. The offi
cials are reticent, but it was learned last
evening that there is immediate danger
of a squeoze and the firemen are on the
alert.
If the fire is not out this afternoon the
probability is that the mine will be
flooded.
A Stabbing Affray.
Prom the Wilkesbarre Newsdealer.
A serious stabbing affray occurred.
Monday night, near Smitlivlllo. Win.
Mooney, aged 24 years, and James Tigue.
aged 23 years; accompanied by Michael
Healey. had hcen drinking heavily all
day and were on their way home to
I'ittston when the fight took place.
Mooney said Tigue owed him 45 cents.
This Tiguo denied, and Healey said it
was he, not Tigue, who owed the money.
Mooney became enraged and pulled out
a knife and began slashing right arid
left, the first cut taking effect in Tlgue's
left side. Tigue. tried to get away, but
Mooney followed him so closely he could
not.
Healey ran away, bnt he returned on
hearing Tigue's cries, though did not of
fer any assistance. Tigue sank ex
hausted before his assailant desisted.
Mooney then threw tho knife into the
hushes and disappeared. Healey after
wards found the knife. Edward Keat
ing, while coming from work, discovered
Tigue and'gave tho alarm.
Mart Tigue, a brother of the wounded
man, had his brother removed to his
homo. Yesterday ho was taken to the
hospital where he is resting quietfy.
Martin Tigue had a warrant sworn out
for Mooney and Healey and they were
arrested.
Willium Slocum Dead.
William Slocum, one of tho best-known
residents of the upper part of this coun
ty, dropped dead on Saturday. His
death was duo to apoplexy. He was 60
years of ago and was very wealthy. He

There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than nil other diseases
put together, and until the Inst few
years was sqpposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescrib
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment, pro
nounced it incurable. Science lias
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. It is taken in
ternally in doses from ten drops to a
teaspoonful. It nets directly ou the

for any case it fails to cure. Send for

A very clever line of performances are
those being given by the Mazle Lewis
Company here this week. The Opening
bill was "Tho Black Flag." and the per
formance us a whole was thoroughly en
joyable and met with well merited ap
plause from a large audience. No better
proof could be given that "The Black
Flag" scored a hit, than the substantial
size of Tuesday evening's assemblage.
Individually, and as an ensemble, the
company at each performance gave
evidence of dramatic talent of no mean
order. Miss Lewis has proved herself to
be a winsome little lady of talent, and
j has shown much artistic versatility in
"i tho various characters she lias assumed,
I ranging from highly emotional to rough
soubrctte characters.

A Litllc All Brought. An* WITH.
Recently the TKIBLWK published a
little advertisement for a boy to'loam
the printing trade. It, was set in von
small type, and there was no attempt
made to bring it conspicuously before
the readers of the paper. Eleven boys,
throe men and one girl responded to
the two insertions. What the THIBI XK
did for Itself it can do for others, and
the merchant who doesn't believe in ad
vertising can figilre out from this illus

during this busy season.
