INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.

The Green Ridge Iron works are
working full time owing to the great
demand for railroad spikes.
A number OF boys are wanted at the
Scranton Glass works, on Green Ridge
street. The company has large orders
on hand.
Paul Dunn, contractor, of the Trib-
une building, has left for Morristown.
y. j., where he has secured a contract
for .macadamizing 'thirteen miles of
road.
Contractor James Simpson Is in the
city making arrangements for the erec-
ton of the silk mills on the South
Side. The foundations for the brick
work will be ready this week and it Is
anticipated that the mills will be COM
pleted wb.hin three months.
E. s. Pratt has transferred the plant
of the Elmira Cash Register company
to this city, and has secured a large
store room at Green Ridge. The COM
pany's offices are at 312 Washington

prominent position.
a compilation has been made by the
Financial Chronicle of the gross earn
ings Of 125 railroads during the month

The Reading organs are talking quite
confidentially, these days. This is how
the Philadelphia Press talks, apropos
Of the report that New York capitalists
have bought large holdings of Reading:
IF the New York people were to get a
majority Of the stock and come here
next January and vote Mr.. Harris out
1t would not give them control Of Read
ing That thing has been done In the
past. The Bond-Gowen contest was ex-
actly parallel and Receiver Gowen
when he was beaten for president, said
he would see that President Bonds
duties were limited to signing the an
nual passes, and they were. There Is
only one way to get control of Reading
and that IS to raise the money neces-
sary to reorganize the company. Until
the New York people do this their sug
gestlons of control and great things
will nc. be listened to outside of Wall
street and the Reading company will
continue in It's position Of master Of
the anthracite coal trade. There Is a
way by which the New York coal com
panies can settle the coal trade dispute
Instantly and that Is by dividing 70 per
cent of the anthracite tonnage among
themselves. This Is the situation"
