At a meeting of the officers and

After the Coal Trust.

New YORK. April 25.-The Herald
devotes page, today, to the Reading
com bination and this is it's own
dou BILE loaded summary of the matter:
The com bination has been in
active existence three weeks.
In the great Lehigh Valley coal re.
gion It has thrown 10000 men out of
employment for half time. In the
fiourishing cities of the lower valley
it has deprived half their employees
from work. Its restriction OF the
coal product is q sure tore
runner of . coming advance In coal
prices, which is an increase to the
cost of manufacturing in all eastern
states, manufacturers for the whole
country and the cost OF living for the
people of New York. The only cause
for all this disturbance of business
and misfortune to the people lie an
attempt to make an Improbable
railroad pay excessive dividends for
two other railroads which 1t
was DO right to possess.

spent the day in outdoor amusementF.
1t was given under the auspices of
the White Diamond Social club. To-
simply say the crowd was merry

express the mood they were in. When

posters describing the program to be

closed this was the vote:

of these medals were very prettily
engraved. There were APO votes

There was q shooting contest, one
for the ladies and one for the gentle
men. Miss Kate Cassiano won the

MORE FIRES.
Several Saturday Night but Little
Damage Done.

Several Saturday Night but Little
Damage Done.
There were more fires Saturday
last, two of which were incendiary,
no doubt.
The first fire was discovered about
8 quarter past six o'clock in the after
noon, and newly built store on South
Flores, near Arsenal streets, was de-
.stroyed. This loss, about 5000, will
have to be borne by the contractor,
who had not yet turned the building
over to the owner, Mrs. Hadra, Of
Galveston. The origin of the fire was
undoubtedly accidental, probably due
to some careless tobacco smoker.
The second fire was about 0 o'clock
p. m. and the Alamo paint factory,
owned by the Sam Maverick estate,
on Leal street, near the lumber yard
burned Saturday one week ago, was
destroyed. The building was I'M
occupied and thus could only be in
sured for $1,000. The place was
valued at about "a 900.
The next fire did not call the fire
department out. 1t was located in
the kitchen of Mr.. B. Hampton, on
jackson street. Little damage was
done.
Another incendiary fire broke out
on Oakland street yesterday morning
at about o'clock, but was extin-
guished before the house was totally
destroyed. The damage was all done
| to the back of the house and 1t will
require about $500 to repair it again.
The house is situated next to Capt.
Storey's former residence, on Oakland
street, near the corner Of Oakland and
Ninth streets. 1t was unoceupied at
the time of the fire, as the family who
had lived there moved out Saturday
morning.
Saturday morning curtain in st.
Mary's church caught fire from a
candle and Dlazed up, but was quick
ly extinguished.
Saturday night between IL and l
O'Clock, an attempt was made to set
| fire to a residence on Ruiz street, near
the Mexican Baptist church, Third
ward. A boy in the house heard Q
| noise, as OF q tin vessel falling, and
awaking his brother, they ran out
and saw q man running away from
the place, They found the gallery
pretty well saturated with coal oil
and an empty can on the gallery told
| the tale of how it got there by being
accidentally dropped by the would
be incendiary. No damage was done.
