IN THE TOLLS OF UNCLE SAM.
Jennie Robbins Charged with Hav.
ing Illegally Sold Liauor.

Jennie Robbins was taken before
United States Commissioner Milo j.
Wilson yesterday afternoon, charged
with selling liquor without having paid
the special United States tax. Deputy
Marshal Walters was the prosecutor
The evidence of the prosecution was
that Miss Robbins when approached
by Marshal Walters said that she was
the proprietor of the place, which is
located in the market block on Lacka-
wanna avenue. There was conclusive
evidence that liquor was sold.
The defense of Miss Robbins was that
she had applied for a United States IL
cense on June l. The warrant, how
ever mentioned May 81 as the date
of the misdemeanor. The Robbins wo-
man said that she lied when she stated
to the marshal that she was the pro-
prietor of the place on May 81. She
did not take possession until June l.
Commissioner Wilson held her in 5000
bail to appear at the next session OF
the United States court for this dis
trict. She was given until this morn
ing to furnish the bondsman. Attor-
neys Beale and Boyle represented the
defendant.

NEW BREAKER ASSURED.
It Will BE Built by Wyoming Land
and Conl Company.

The Wyoming Coal and Land COM
pany has decided to erect a breaker in
place of the Hunt breaker which was
destroyed by fire last week. The burn
ed building was owned by the Della
ware, I.ackawanna and Western COM
pany, 1t will be recalled, and was only
leased by the Wyoming company. The
new breaker will be built by the latter
company, and 1t will be located on
their own land, about half mile north
of the one burned. Surveyors were on
the ground Tuesday, says the Pittston
Gazette, making preliminary surveys.
and the exact site for the new build
ing will he decided upon within a few
days. The details have not yet been
arranged, but DIR. Rice, the general
manager, says the new breaker will
have a capacity of 1000 tons a day.
The work of building will be started
as soon as possible. A report is in cir
culation that the mine will continue in
operation and the coal stocked until
the breaker is ready to prepare it, but
DR.. Rice says there is no truth in the
report.

drangia blossoms. They were unat-
tended. Miss Anna Conkling played

BERNARD. MGREAyY ARRESTED.
Nathan -Riceman Makes II Peculia
Charge Against Him.


Charge Against Him.
Nathan. Z Riceman. of South Washing
ton avenhk, yesterday caused the ar
rest OF Bernard McGreavy, of Chin
chilla, charging him with assault and
robbery. McGreavy was taken before
Alderman Millar yesterday to answer
the charge
Riceman's story is in effect that he
went to McGreavy's place in Chin
chilla, intending to purchase calves.
Riceman alleges that McGreavy in
vited him out to the barn and when he
got him there knocked him down and
took every cent of. money from his
clothes. There was about IS says
Riceman.
McGreavey's side of the story is de-
cidedly different. He claims that Rice
man gave him SLIGO on an old debt for
other calves, After McGreavy got the
money he says he refused to sell Rice
man any more calves until the latter
paid the balance of the outstanding
debt of So. Then Riceman got mad and
concocted the charge against Nc
Greavy

"It is evident that when buying be-
gins for the winter supply, the price
will undoubtedly advance materially,
as most of the tonnage must come
from freshly mined coal, and In view
of the long depression in the trade, it
might be in a position to fully meet
this call upon them.
1T is estimated that the market re-
quirement for June will be about q
500, 900 tons, and it Is not probable that
the shipments for that month will ma
terially exceed this figure.
PRODUCTION FOR THE YEAR.
There has been some discussion as
to the probable consumption during
the current year, and various estimates
from 37,000,000 to 100000 tons have
been made. 1t Is argued on one side
that btuminous coal, gas and oil have
displaced a large anthracite tonnage,
and together with the depressed indus
trial conditions, the market for hard
coal will be limited throughout 'the
year. On the other hand 1t is claimed
that while competition from the other
fuels has undoubtedly had a serious
effect in contracting the market for
anthracite, the principal difficulty is
that, owing to the long continued in
dustrial depression, consumers have
been compelled to purchase less than
usual, and when trade again revives,
the consumption will largely increase.
ut seems hardly possible that this
year should be greatly different from
the many that have passed. There has
beer. a steady increase in the consump-
Of hi fsta nil first
gan, and the industrial conditions now
are no worse than they have been
many times before. Frequently, in the
history of the trade, persons of pessi-
niltic tendencies have predicted that
in this or that year of unusual produc-
ton the limit had been reached, and
that thereafter no greater amount of
the coal could be absorbed. But quite
as often these prophecies have been
proven false.
CONSUMPTION HAS INCREASED.
1.-The consumption has increased in
nearly the same ratio as before, and it
will likely continue doing so for some
years to come, though now there is a
more serious competition in the in
creasing use of gas for domestic pur-
poses than in the past
THE production for the first five
months of any year has not been less
than 32 per cent, and as high as SO
per cent. of the years output. In view
of the general depression in the trades
thus far this year and the encouraging
signs of a decided revival in manufac-
turing, 1t is impossible to estimate with
any accuracy what proportion of the
years output the spring consumption
will represent. II there is no material
change in the conditions, as seen now
II might be assumed that the first five
months output will not be more than
81 per cent. of the years production
which, on that basis, would be a little
over 2S,G00,O00 tons. 1t does not seem
probable that the consumption will be
less than this figure, and, if there is
any marked improvement in Industrial
affairs, the chances are that 1t will be
nearer to 10000 900 tons, If not more. >
If the consumption reaches 10000, ,OOC
tons. as now seems probable, there will
re much more work done in the mines
hereabouts during the remainder OF
the year than there has been thus far
