Small Allotment for March.

The anthracite coal sales agents of
both the eastern and western trade met
in New York on Tuesday and decided
to make no change in the present price
of coal. The meeting, which was held
at the office of Coke Bros. & Co., was
largely attended, all the principal in
terests being represented. From statis-
tics presented it was shown that the
agreement to restrict production to so
per cent. of the maximum output had
been adhered to, and in view of the
present quiet demand for coal it was
decided to continue the restriction on
the same basis. This will make the
allotment for March about 2,225, 900
tons.
1t was decided not to make formal
spring circular, but if, at the end of
March, the trade has enjoyed good coal
consuming weather, the present prices
will be made the spring prices. If not
? reduction in price will follow.

HIGHLAND DOTS.

An attempt was made to rob the sup
ply store at No. l breaker on Sunday
night, which resulted in failure. The
burglars bored several holes through
the door with the intention of removing
the bar on the inside and were busily at
work trying to pry open shutter when
they were frightened off by the night
fireman and his dog. There is much
valuable stock kept in this store and
had the thieves gained an entrance
they would have made big haul.
The railroad track, which has settled
down several times recently, is now said
to be pretty safe and fit to travel over
with but little danger.
John j. Campbell removed his family
and household effects from this place on
Tuesday.

He Drifted Home Again.

After thirteen years of absence during
which time it was thought he was dead,
Michael McHale arrived in Pittston on
Tuesday just in time to take part in the
celebration of the fiftieth anniversary
Of his parents marriage, and as his
coming was unannounced the surprise
was so great that the aged couple could
hardly realize it.
In 1881 Michael, then II years of age,
suddenly disappeared from home. For
weeks no trace of him was found despite
the constant search, but finally news
came from the west that he had been
killed. Money was sent on to pay his
funeral expenses and the father and
mother mourneds him as dead.
Mcl1ale says that for seven years he
was private in the regular army. At the
end of his enlistment he resumed his
wandering life, finally settling on the big
ranch of the North Platte river owned
by Hon. w. F. Cody, Buffalo Bill"
About this time he married. A child
was born while they lived at the ranch,
and it being the first white child born
there Buffalo Bills daughter Agnes pre-
sented it with magnificent robe made
of three white wolf skins. He wrote
home several times, but receiving no
answer thought his parents had moved
away and stopped writing. His mother
says none of his letters ever reached
them.

Electric Signals on the Valley.

The Hall electric block system is now
incourse of erection on the Lehigh Val
ley between Mauch Chunk and Penn
Haven. Signal posts are put up one
mile apart and whenever train passes
one of these posts danger signal is
given and this remains suspended until
the train has past one-half mile beyond
the next succeeding post, or in other
words, "has left the block"
As it leaves one block it enters another
and so on continues until the end of the
system is reached. There will be eight
blocks on each track, the east and west
bound, between East Mauch Chunk and
Penn Haven Junction.
