RAILROAD OFFICE CORPS ARE SUSP ENDED Ontario rind Western Company Sends Homo Its Clerks at Mayfleld Yard j Until Farther Notice Tho D. & H. to Do Likewise Merchants Will Not Ecfuse Credit During tho Strike. The numerous offices of the Ontario nnd Western company at Maylleld yard arc all but deserted. Of all the force there, none is at work but the heads of departments, perhaps a half-doze- n. Tho enforced vacation took place yes- terday, when the clerks were notillod that there would be no work for them until further notice. While the notice was depressing, it was not a surprise. What work icnmlncd after tho strike was declined was cleared away on Sat- urday. As no trains are moving on the road, no coal being transported, ail tho collieries, washcries, etc, being closed, there is nothing to engage the clerks. Hence their suspension. Tho coal Inspectots of the company are Included In the order, as there Is no effort being made' to operate even this several waMiertes which the On-tai- lo and Western controls between hero and Scranton. IL might be said that only a handful of men are at work on tills illusion of the Ontario and Western. As the mad Is practically tied up, few cars moving and engines being lined up in the yard, the shop hands at Mayfleld yard have been laid olf. In all, clerks, shop hands and trainmen, there are over 1!00 men out of work on theJDutnrlo nnd Wcst-pr- n. The Erie has laid off Its otllce help. This order, however, does not affect so many as the Ontario and Western. Tho Delaware and Hudson has not issued a suspension order, but it is looked for almost any day this week. Tho clerks are now getting their work up to date, which will take only a few days. After this, there will bo nothing to do, save for some of the clerks in the freight office, nnd tho company will bo certain not to carry any unemployed help on its pay rolls. During tho last coal strike, tho Delaware and Hudson clerks were not suspended, but those in tho Ontario and Western offices were. Tho woik in the repair shops of the Delaware and Hudson is necessarily slackening, with tile consequence that an order has been issued laying the employes off for tho last three days of this week. It is not known whether the suspension will be made indefinite. The enforced Idleness of the several hundred men In Carbondnlo, nnd the fear, that It may continue for a long period, has stirred them to seek em- ployment in other Ileitis beyond the in- fluence qf tho anthracite strike. Since, and even befoie, the strike numerous young men began casting about for ap- pointments that would provide for them Jn tho event of tho blight or a. strike in this region. Some have been success- ful, and, If the prospects of a prolonged lock-o- ut grow, there is likely to bo a lively exodus of young Carbondnlo men, .n"pprec!ubly greater than after tho abandonment of the gravity road of tho Delaware nd Hudson. Mercliunts Will Give Credit. The merchants of Carbondnlo will not cease giving" credit to their customers during1 'the strike, unless tho Jobbers hnuld refuse to allow credit for what o'lsthe.vijn.c.rpbunta buy. , TWj3!,i';'d(!i:J(lr1d .nL.tho, meeting of tho M"rSrWU:, Jh'oUwtlyq,, association, pef&teUio(l..tm eifysiitev tno" 'matter.

The chief factor In the merchants ar- riving at this decision was Unit the miners from tills city did not want it strike. They Rent four deloRUtcs who were opposed to a strike and four who were instructed to follow President Mitchell's advice. The strike was not of the making of tho Carbondnlo mens it was only unfortunnto that their wishes did not prevail. The local mcrehantn say they have not felt the eltects of the strike, as yet. Iluslncss was as good as usual Satur- day night and there was tho. ordlnnry volume yesterday. The buying now is from tho money made the past month, or saved now and then In anticipation of a strike. It will ho a couple of weeks before the receipts of the cash drawer will show there Is a strike. STRIKE CAUSES CHANGES. Four Young Men Leave Carbondalo for Other Fields. Tho miners strike In causing some changes among the young men. of the town, many of whom are being forced to sock other positions. The first to leave the city by reason of enforced idleness are Charles .T. Mahoney and Robert Schoonover. Hoth were employed In the cigar factory of P. J. Collins, ns cigar makers. On Saturday night they suspended work and yesterday they loft for the K.i3t, intending to locate In Roston, Mass., where tho prospects of steady employ- ment at their trade are bright. Jtlr Mahoney and Mr. Schoonover made themselves exceedingly popular among a wide circle of friends in Car- bondalc, since locating here. The former Is from lilnghumton and the latter from Honesdale. Roth are fore-mo- st among tho members of the Cen- tennial Social club, Mr, Mahoney hav- ing been Measurer. Mr. Schoonover was conspicuous In local athletics, lie played with the "Indian foot ball team and has won prizes In athletic con- tests. Their departure will be regret- ted by a host of well-wishi- friends. Thomas Joyce and Casper Benson, who likewise leave many friends behind in Carbondalo, departed Inst evening fu- - Chicago, where positions await them. Roth were Delaware & Hudson employees. A SOURCE OF DANGER. This Is How Citizens Regard Re- moval of Gate-tend- er at Lookout Crossing of D. & H. Will Petition Councils to Keep Man There. The property owners In the vicinity of Lookout mossing of the Delaware & Hudson arc aroused over the order of tho railroad people of a few days ago, removing Edward Kenworthy, the man who lowered and raised tho safety gates at this point, and transferring him to another place down the valley. The crossing is now without the' pro- tection that the citizens feel v their safety demands and their voices are making n. chorus of vigorous protests against what they denounce ns a source of great danger. Those protests. The Tilbuno has been informed of by residents of the vicinity of tho crossing will ho voiced in a petition to councils, asking that Iho Delaware & Hudson company, bo directed to maintain a man In the signal tower in place of Kenworthy whose station has been changed Tho operator In the tower is supposed to do the work, hut the com- plaining residents say that his duties will not permit him to give the gates tho attention they call for. He is obliged to report tho passing of trains, taking their number, etc., which takes his tlino and attention. Half tho time he has no opportunity to lower the gates. This condition prevailed, tlicy declare, dulng the last strike. The gateman was temporal lly removed, as now and several times a day, it Is claimed, no gates were loweicd; the crossing was unguarded and teamsters or persons could rush unchecked Into the path of danger. It is the purpose to pi event a repetition of these dangers and the steps for tho presentation of the petition nro now under way. The Lookout crossing Is extremely dangerous. Fourteen passenger trains on the main lino pass the crossing each way every day, and four each way on the Honesdale branch. Re- sides theie are scores of coal and freight trains, though tho coal trains are not running these days. A3 the passenger trains lly past at top speed, almost, and tho roadway over the cros- sing Is traveled constantly, there is grave concern over the lack of protec- tion that it is claimed exists. The Close of the Season. Thcro will be a fitting close to tho theatrical season In Carbondalo with tho presentation of Augustus Thomas' "Arizona" at tho Grand on Saturday. "Arizona" is a play that bus met with popular npprovul because of the picturesque types It so faltfully pres- ents. The play is a greater educator, for It presents a true plcturo of a picturesque part of our country tho wilds of Arizona, In a manner that could not be possible through tho uso of n roomful of histories. The play is so splendidly staged that it will bo n. treat to Carbondallans. Next to "Tho Ronnie Rrler Rush,' it will rank ns tho best production ever booked for Carbondale. Mayfleld Man Creates Disturbance. A man fiani Mayfleld, named Cawley, annoyed pnssersby on Washington btreot, just before noon jfesterduy by stopping them and Indulging in maud- lin talk, Sanitary I'nllccmiin Moflltt arrested Cawley, but had to have tho assistance of James Campbell before tho prisoner wns safely lauded In the city jal. When tho cell floor was opened ho mado a stubborn t against being Imprisoned, and "for a few minutes made things lively for tho officer and those who assisted him. Cawley will be brought befoio Mayor O'Nell this morning. Meetings of Tonight. William II, Davies Post, G. A. R. St, Vincent do Paul. Lackawanna Tribe, Red Men. Carbondulu Conclave, Ileptusuphs.

The members of tho band of Wash- ington camp, Patriotic Order Sons of America, sustained their reputation ob entertainers by successfully conduct- ing a concert in Cambrian hall, on South' Church street. An lee cream social followed. The band entertained with two open-a- ir numbers, the "Now Annapolis March" and "Tho Colonel Brett Starch." Tho programme In tho hall was: "Friendship March," (Macklc)s "Two Action March" (Hood); "Golden Wed- ding Waltz" (Mackle); "Creole Belles'! (Lampo); "Yale 'Varsity March" ( Johnston): "Bachelor Club March" (3t. Clair); "McCunc Cadets" (Farrar). The hall was crowded, WANTS AN OPINION ABOUT WATER BONDS Common Council After Protracted Discussion Postpones Passing Or- dinance for Repeal of Municipal Water "Plant " Bonds Until City Solicitor Gives His Opinion Both Councils Meet. The municipal water question in Car- bondalo bids fair td lead to Interminable discussion. There was another phase of the project ventilated In common coun- cil last night until some of the mem- bers spoke twice or more during the close debate. The protracted discussion was pro- voked by the reporting of the ordinance repealing the bond Issue of $143,000, which Mr.-Ston- e Introduced at the last meeting of Common council. Some members ofcouncll want the bonds re- pealed in order that money may be procured for the liquidation of even some of the city's expense's, which are piling up like a hay stack In the midst of u Held of hay makers in harvest time. Other councllmen believe that the bonds should be left undisturbed until the Injunction suit be fully dis- posed of by the lower court. The council for the city shares in this "view, that tho bonds should be untouched until the supreme court either affirms or over rules Judge Halsey's opinion. The opinions were plainly expressed !nst night and in making a fight for postponing action those who were op- posed to disposing of the matter now, fought for a postponment until the city solicitor's written opinion as to the regularity of either course be obtained. This side led by Mr. Nealon was suc- cessful. Action was postponed until City Solicitor Stuart could present a written opinion. This resolution of couise is subject to the action of select council. In the discussion Messrs. Nealon, Whitfield and Hobbs opposed im- mediate action, while Messrs. Stone, Thompson, Masters and Salem argued In favor df repealing the bonds In order to relievo the city's finances. Subse- quently Mr. Salem Inclined to the other side and it wafiihlSninotlon t6 postpone action that prevailed. Tho other Important matter of coun- cil was the passage on two readings of Chairman Masters ordinance for addi- tional arc lights. Tho other business of tho session were the adoption of the following res- olutions: Ry Mr. Thompson Dlrestlng that tho city water bo turned on in the drink- ing fountains and in Memorial park from G a. m. to 10 p. m. By Mr. Whltiield That the Joint building committee effect the needed repairs oa the city building. There was a license ordinance Im- posing a tax on all venders, which Mr. Clark Introduced. Mr. Whitfield brought before council what uppearcd to be too rapid running of curs by the Scranton Railway com- pany. No action wns taken, though Chairman Masters jocularly suggested that cyclometers bo placed on the wheels of the trolley cars' to keep tabs of them. On Mr. Stone's suggestion, tho city engineer will inquire Into the rotten condition of the roadway on either side of tho trolley tracks on Belmont street. In Select Council. Tho most important measure dis- posed of at tho meeting of select coun- cil was the adoption of resolutions providing for n surface spwer on Arch-bal- d stieet, to Eight avenue. Tho resolution covering tho sewer dispute of John AVaterfleld and one similar involving tho property of Mrs. A. V. Nichols which common council passed last week, after considerable discussion wero leferred to committee. Tho common council ordinance pro- viding for a sewer on Thorne street WH f w ml (c EYES SPEAK Volumes, nt times, of woman's happi- ness or misery.

Thcro was an ordinance by Mr. Bar- rett providing for a Are hydrant, at the upper end of Fallbrook street, whore lire recently destroyed a resi- dence, largely beeause of lack of water facilities. It was referred to commit- tee. A resolution for a profile of Lincoln avenue cast from Harrison avenue was adopted. Concurrent resolutions were adopted as follows: Payment of bills, requisition of Mitchell company, re- pairs on city building by joint building committee. The resolution directing that the water flow in tho drinking fountains was sent to committee. It was con- sidered to be ahead of the game, as it were, to start the water at this time. OBITUARY.

RAILROAD OFFICE CORPS

ARE SUSP ENDED

Ontario rind Western Company Sends

Homo Its Clerks at Mayfleld Yard j

Until Farther Notice Tho D. & H.

to Do Likewise Merchants Will

Not Ecfuse Credit During tho

Strike.The numerous offices of the Ontario

nnd Western company at Maylleld yardarc all but deserted. Of all the forcethere, none is at work but the heads ofdepartments, perhaps a half-doze- n.

Tho enforced vacation took place yes-

terday, when the clerks were notillodthat there would be no work for themuntil further notice. While the noticewas depressing, it was not a surprise.What work icnmlncd after tho strikewas declined was cleared away on Sat-urday. As no trains are moving on theroad, no coal being transported, ail thocollieries, washcries, etc, being closed,there is nothing to engage the clerks.Hence their suspension.

Tho coal Inspectots of the companyare Included In the order, as there Isno effort being made' to operate eventhis several waMiertes which the On-tai- lo

and Western controls betweenhero and Scranton.

IL might be said that only a handfulof men are at work on tills illusion ofthe Ontario and Western. As the madIs practically tied up, few cars movingand engines being lined up in the yard,the shop hands at Mayfleld yard havebeen laid olf. In all, clerks, shop handsand trainmen, there are over 1!00 menout of work on theJDutnrlo nnd Wcst-pr- n.

The Erie has laid off Its otllce help.This order, however, does not affect somany as the Ontario and Western.

Tho Delaware and Hudson has notissued a suspension order, but it islooked for almost any day this week.Tho clerks are now getting their workup to date, which will take only a fewdays. After this, there will bo nothingto do, save for some of the clerks inthe freight office, nnd tho company willbo certain not to carry any unemployedhelp on its pay rolls. During tho lastcoal strike, tho Delaware and Hudsonclerks were not suspended, but thosein tho Ontario and Western offices were.

Tho woik in the repair shops of theDelaware and Hudson is necessarilyslackening, with tile consequence thatan order has been issued laying theemployes off for tho last three days ofthis week. It is not known whether thesuspension will be made indefinite.

The enforced Idleness of the severalhundred men In Carbondnlo, nnd thefear, that It may continue for a longperiod, has stirred them to seek em-ployment in other Ileitis beyond the in-

fluence qf tho anthracite strike. Since,and even befoie, the strike numerousyoung men began casting about for ap-pointments that would provide for themJn tho event of tho blight or a. strike inthis region. Some have been success-ful, and, If the prospects of a prolongedlock-o- ut grow, there is likely to bo alively exodus of young Carbondnlo men,.n"pprec!ubly greater than after thoabandonment of the gravity road oftho Delaware nd Hudson.

Mercliunts Will Give Credit.The merchants of Carbondnlo will not

cease giving" credit to their customersduring1 'the strike, unless tho Jobbers

hnuld refuse to allow credit for whato'lsthe.vijn.c.rpbunta buy. ,

on tho wholesale men deullng likewiseWilli the Carbondnlo itierclinnts.

The chief factor In the merchants ar-riving at this decision was Unit theminers from tills city did not want itstrike. They Rent four deloRUtcs whowere opposed to a strike and four whowere instructed to follow PresidentMitchell's advice. The strike was notof the making of tho Carbondnlo mensit was only unfortunnto that theirwishes did not prevail.

The local mcrehantn say they havenot felt the eltects of the strike, as yet.Iluslncss was as good as usual Satur-day night and there was tho. ordlnnryvolume yesterday. The buying now isfrom tho money made the past month,or saved now and then In anticipationof a strike. It will ho a couple ofweeks before the receipts of the cashdrawer will show there Is a strike.

STRIKE CAUSES CHANGES.

Four Young Men Leave Carbondalofor Other Fields.

Tho miners strike In causing somechanges among the young men. of thetown, many of whom are being forcedto sock other positions.

The first to leave the city by reasonof enforced idleness are Charles .T.

Mahoney and Robert Schoonover. Hothwere employed In the cigar factoryof P. J. Collins, ns cigar makers. OnSaturday night they suspended workand yesterday they loft for the K.i3t,intending to locate In Roston, Mass.,where tho prospects of steady employ-ment at their trade are bright.

Jtlr Mahoney and Mr. Schoonovermade themselves exceedingly popularamong a wide circle of friends in Car-bondalc, since locating here. Theformer Is from lilnghumton and thelatter from Honesdale. Roth are fore-mo- st

among tho members of the Cen-

tennial Social club, Mr, Mahoney hav-ing been Measurer. Mr. Schoonoverwas conspicuous In local athletics, lieplayed with the "Indian foot ball teamand has won prizes In athletic con-

tests. Their departure will be regret-ted by a host of well-wishi- friends.

Thomas Joyce and Casper Benson,who likewise leave many friends behindin Carbondalo, departed Inst eveningfu-- Chicago, where positions awaitthem. Roth were Delaware & Hudsonemployees.

A SOURCE OF DANGER.

This Is How Citizens Regard Re-

moval of Gate-tend- er at LookoutCrossing of D. & H. Will PetitionCouncils to Keep Man There.The property owners In the vicinity

of Lookout mossing of the Delaware& Hudson arc aroused over the orderof tho railroad people of a few daysago, removing Edward Kenworthy, theman who lowered and raised tho safetygates at this point, and transferringhim to another place down the valley.

The crossing is now without the' pro-tection that the citizens feel v theirsafety demands and their voices aremaking n. chorus of vigorous protestsagainst what they denounce ns asource of great danger. Those protests.The Tilbuno has been informed of byresidents of the vicinity of tho crossingwill ho voiced in a petition to councils,asking that Iho Delaware & Hudsoncompany, bo directed to maintain aman In the signal tower in place ofKenworthy whose station has beenchanged Tho operator In the tower issupposed to do the work, hut the com-plaining residents say that his dutieswill not permit him to give the gatestho attention they call for. He isobliged to report tho passing of trains,taking their number, etc., which takeshis tlino and attention. Half tho timehe has no opportunity to lower thegates. This condition prevailed, tlicydeclare, dulng the last strike. Thegateman was temporal lly removed, asnow and several times a day, it Isclaimed, no gates were loweicd; thecrossing was unguarded and teamstersor persons could rush unchecked Intothe path of danger. It is the purpose topi event a repetition of these dangersand the steps for tho presentation ofthe petition nro now under way.

The Lookout crossing Is extremelydangerous. Fourteen passenger trainson the main lino pass the crossingeach way every day, and four eachway on the Honesdale branch. Re-

sides theie are scores of coal andfreight trains, though tho coal trainsare not running these days. A3 thepassenger trains lly past at top speed,almost, and tho roadway over the cros-sing Is traveled constantly, there isgrave concern over the lack of protec-tion that it is claimed exists.

The Close of the Season.Thcro will be a fitting close to tho

theatrical season In Carbondalo withtho presentation of Augustus Thomas'"Arizona" at tho Grand on Saturday.

"Arizona" is a play that bus metwith popular npprovul because of thepicturesque types It so faltfully pres-ents. The play is a greater educator,for It presents a true plcturo of apicturesque part of our country thowilds of Arizona, In a manner thatcould not be possible through tho usoof n roomful of histories. The play isso splendidly staged that it will bon. treat to Carbondallans. Next to"Tho Ronnie Rrler Rush,' it will rankns tho best production ever bookedfor Carbondale.

Mayfleld Man Creates Disturbance.A man fiani Mayfleld, named Cawley,

WANTS AN OPINION

ABOUT WATER BONDS

Common Council After ProtractedDiscussion Postpones Passing Or-

dinance for Repeal of MunicipalWater "Plant " Bonds Until CitySolicitor Gives His Opinion BothCouncils Meet.The municipal water question in Car-

bondalo bids fair td lead to Interminablediscussion. There was another phase ofthe project ventilated In common coun-cil last night until some of the mem-bers spoke twice or more during theclose debate.

The protracted discussion was pro-voked by the reporting of the ordinancerepealing the bond Issue of $143,000,which Mr.-Ston- e Introduced at the lastmeeting of Common council. Somemembers ofcouncll want the bonds re-

pealed in order that money may beprocured for the liquidation of evensome of the city's expense's, which arepiling up like a hay stack In the midstof u Held of hay makers in harvesttime. Other councllmen believe thatthe bonds should be left undisturbeduntil the Injunction suit be fully dis-posed of by the lower court. Thecouncil for the city shares in this "view,that tho bonds should be untoucheduntil the supreme court either affirmsor over rules Judge Halsey's opinion.

The opinions were plainly expressed!nst night and in making a fight forpostponing action those who were op-

posed to disposing of the matter now,fought for a postponment until the citysolicitor's written opinion as to theregularity of either course be obtained.This side led by Mr. Nealon was suc-cessful. Action was postponed untilCity Solicitor Stuart could present awritten opinion. This resolution ofcouise is subject to the action of selectcouncil.

In the discussion Messrs. Nealon,Whitfield and Hobbs opposed im-

mediate action, while Messrs. Stone,Thompson, Masters and Salem arguedIn favor df repealing the bonds In orderto relievo the city's finances. Subse-quently Mr. Salem Inclined to the otherside and it wafiihlSninotlon t6 postponeaction that prevailed.

Tho other Important matter of coun-cil was the passage on two readings ofChairman Masters ordinance for addi-tional arc lights.

Tho other business of tho sessionwere the adoption of the following res-olutions:

Ry Mr. Thompson Dlrestlng that thocity water bo turned on in the drink-ing fountains and in Memorial parkfrom G a. m. to 10 p. m.

By Mr. Whltiield That the Jointbuilding committee effect the neededrepairs oa the city building.

There was a license ordinance Im-

posing a tax on all venders, which Mr.Clark Introduced.

Mr. Whitfield brought before councilwhat uppearcd to be too rapid runningof curs by the Scranton Railway com-pany. No action wns taken, thoughChairman Masters jocularly suggestedthat cyclometers bo placed on thewheels of the trolley cars' to keep tabsof them.

On Mr. Stone's suggestion, tho cityengineer will inquire Into the rottencondition of the roadway on eitherside of tho trolley tracks on Belmontstreet.

In Select Council.Tho most important measure dis-

posed of at tho meeting of select coun-cil was the adoption of resolutionsproviding for n surface spwer on Arch-bal- d

stieet, to Eight avenue.Tho resolution covering tho sewer

dispute of John AVaterfleld and onesimilar involving tho property of Mrs.A. V. Nichols which common councilpassed last week, after considerablediscussion wero leferred to committee.
