worst TROUBLE is over.
Wholesale Meat Dealers Believe They
Will Have no Further Trouble in
Supplying the Demand.

The outlook among the local whole
sale and retail meat dealers was some
what brighter yesterday.
A visit TO the offices of the Scranton
and Showers Packing companies found
that each concern has supply on hand
tquivalent to the demand. They are
not receiving any shipments from Chi
cago their orders, however, are being
filled by firms in Kansas City and
Omaha. 1t takes two days longer for
the shipments to reach here, and it
also entails more expense in freight.
This makes the price of their products
dearer by from IT to 2 cents per pound.
These houses expect no trouble in sup
plying the dsman Is from their trade.
Tie Wholesale fresh meat dealers are
not receiving any meat from Chicago
Their orders are filled at Kansas City,
st. Louis, Hammond and Omaha, and
they are not worrying over their abil-
ity to supply the demand from retail
butchers, The wholesale men are more
or less governed by the prices in the
New York and Philadelphia markets
At the latter places the price of meat
per pound has advanced 81 to 4 cents
per pound. The wholesalers have
raised the prices an average Of cents
per pound while the retail butchers are
still keeping the old prices
Some Of the smaller retail dealers
are not buying much meat, because
there is no profit in it for them. This
is noticed more in the suburbs where
the butcher wagons make two or three
road trips week The retail butchers
are securing the surrounding country
for native beef; but the owners are
holding out for high prices.
The sentiment of the wholesalers is
to the effect that the worst trouble
for them is over and unless the strike
lasts some time and the tie-up be-
comes general, there will be no further
trouble in meeting the demand.

trainer, young man named Wilson,
was almost craz4d with grief over the
unfortunate affair,
The manager OF the stables besought
Mr.. Jermyn to telegraph Wilson that
he held him blameless for the burning,
for it WAS feared that the young mans
reason would become dethroned

has given it the most carful training.

BOLD, BAD HIGHWAYMEN.
An Officer Must Guard the Scranton and
Pittston Express

An Officer Must Guard the Scranton and
Pittston Express, y,
Albert Myers. proprietor of the
Scranton and Pittston express, and
driver Of the team which makes the
daily round tiip batween this city aud
PittstoD, will today have for passsn-
ger a deputy marshal. or some other
legal functionary empowered to act IL
necessary, in the county Of Luzsrne.
Bold, bad highwaymen have been
plotting TO deprive the pilot OF the
Scranton and Pittstou express of his
team, or rather one of the spirited pair.
The knights of the road are not of the
Dick Turpin stamp; they are OF the av.
erage calibre Of American citizens, and
the necessity OF guard about the
lonely express is occasioned by such an
unromantic fact as "hoss" trade.
Several weeks ago Mr.. Myers traded
horses with party from Pittston. who
was the authorized agent Of another
person. Mr. Myers gave $40 difference
between the two animals, but after
ward learned that the third party had
only received So. Now the Pittston.
ian has soured on the bargain and has
evinced the desire to waylay the Scran
ton sxpressman and secure the traded
"hoss."
Last evening Mr.. Myers was hunt
ing for Deputy Marshal Scanlon to
guard him along the dusty highway
and put the bad robbers to fight.
Meanwhile the "hoss" world is hold
ing Its breath and wondering If today's
trip will end in disaster or glory.

The trouble over the paving Of Washing
ton avenue broke out fresh last night at the
meeting of the city council, when Mr.. ]. T.
Gull made additional charges against the
contractors and a part of the city council,
including the engineer in charge Of the
work. He charged that there had been vio-
lations Of the contract, and that the engin-
eer had approved a part OF the work con-
trary to the orders of the city council and
that The mayor was responsible for the at
tempt made to override the Specifications
The debate grew very acrimonious. and the
lie was freely given, with threats to slap
the faces of some of the persons present.
Mutual friends INTERVIEWED, and while no
violence was again attempted, a very dis
graceful wrangle continued. A resolution
was finally offered and adopted canceling
the contract of Breen and Feeley, and dis
charging b. j. Dashiell as engineer. This
proceeding will retard il it does not entirely
prevent the Improvement of other streets,
and is quite setback to our thriving town.
There Will be another meeting of the coun-
Gil on Thursday night, when further action
will be taken and 1t is hoped that the mat
ter will be Strengthened out to the satisfac-
ton of all concerned.
