1t is just a little more than year ago
that the complaint of Coke Bros. & Co.
against the Lehigh Valley Railroad Com
pany was argued before the Interstate
Commerce Commission, but not word
has been heard from that body as to its
decision. The commission has investi-
gated a number of transportation ques-
tions IN the intervening twelve months
and has even stirred up great deal of
new work for itself, but it has been un-
able to find time to decide the most i'm
portant single complaint that has been
brought before it. This is dereliction of
duty that is gross injustice to one of
the parties to the suit. If Coke Bros
complaint is just they should be so noti-
tied if it is unjust the Lehigh Valley
Railroad officials should be so informed,
that they may arrange their business ac-
cordingly.
The only result in Mr.. Coxe's agitation
is a reduction of 20 cents ton in the
freight rates on the so-called unprepared
sizes, although all coal men know there
is just as much preparation about pea
coal as there is about stove and chest
nut. The reduction of 20 cents has not
been enough to check the inroads that
bituminous coal is making in the fuel
market. Through the short-sighted
policy of the carrying companies the
consumption of the steam making sizes
of anthracite coal is decreasing year by
year. Nothing but decisive measures
will now answer. Instead of exacting
81 40 ton for hauling pea coal, the tolls
should be put down to 81 or so cents if
necessary. Any rate that more than
pays expenses is better than losing the
traffic altogether

The following circular has been sent
out by Bishop O'Hara, of Scranton, to
clergymen of the Catholic Church, the
contents of which will be read in every
church in the diocese on Sunday next:
REV. DEAR SIR:-In our circular dated
February %, and addressed to you, you
were informed that we were authorized
by the Holy Father to dispense the
faithful of our charge from the observ-
ance of Lent, both as to the fast and alb
stinence. The closing week of Lent is
now at hand, a holy week, which should
be devoted in special manner to re-
Elections on the passion and death of
Christ. We therefore revoke our dispen-
sation of February 25 and enjoin on the
faithful of our diocese the observance of
Holy Week in accordance with the pub
lished "Rules for the observance of Lent
in the Diocese of Scranton"

Bishop of Scranton.

A New Miners Organization.

A new labor union called the "Work-
ingmen's Benevolent and Protective AS
sociation' was formed at Pottsville on
Saturday. Forty-one delegates, repre-
senting the entire anthracite region, met
and adopted resolutions declaring that
the deplorable condition of the miners of
the region Is largely due to the unor-
ganized condition of the masses, and
that the various organizations in exist
ence would better protect and advance
the common Interests of all if consoli-
dated into one. The resolutions favor
the eight hour movement and arbitra-
ton. The new order is intended to take
the place of the old Miners and Laborers'
Amagamated Association and the
Knights of Labor. 1t is believed by the
projectors and organizers of the new as
sociation that it will be success. They
will strive for a perfect organization, and
to do so will agitate and work for COM
plete unity of forces throughout the en-
tire region. Another meeting will be
held April 3.

Struck an Opening.

While sinking subterranean slope at
No. l Highland yesterday, the men en-
ployed thereat were somewhat surprised
on returning to the face of the work af-
ter firing shot to find ar. opening in the
coal, and upon further investigation it
was found to be the gangway of No. 2
Drifton, which is supposed to be driven
past the boundry line.
The completion of this slope and the
land, together with the new plane, gives
High and new lease of life, AMI the
indications are that more steadier work
will result from these openings.
The tunnel being driven to tap the
oyerlaying vein at No. | slope, was
stripped Yesterday, and 7 foot vein Of
good workable coal discovered.

first-class singer, and favored the au-
dience with number of songs.
Mr. James Ryan was very seriously
injured here on the Goth inst at No. 10
slope. He was coming home, and was
riding between the cars in the mines.
The car in front of the one he was rid
ing on was too heavy loaded and caught
on the timbers, throwing the car off the
track, and by so doing it caught him on
the foot and crushed it. The Jeddo
doctors were telephoned for, and upon
arrival made an examination of the limb
and decided that amputation was neces-
sary. He was very low on Sunday, but
hopes are entertained of his recovery.
Jim was an old driver. He has the
sympathy of the whole community.
