NEW NATIONAL GUARD.
Steps Are Being Taken TO Organize e
Companies 10 This Clty..-An
Order Expected Soon.

There seems to be a general under
standing in Scranton among the eX-
officers of the Thirteenth regiment that
new Pennsylvania National Guard
is to be organized to replace that
which was handed over to the govern
ment. Whether the new guard is to be
provisional and discharged in favor
of the old regiments after the war is
ended, whether it is to be fully equip
ped at the states eXpense--these and
other details are not known. But the
tip has reached here-as it has Phila-
delphia, where three new National
Guard regiments are being organized
by Colonel Morrell-that Governor
Hastings will issue some kind of an
order within a week or ten days which
will result in the creation of a new
guard.
The ex-members of Company d are
the first to anticipate the order in
this city. Last evening nine of them met
in the office of ex-Lieutenant Frank
a. Branda in the Mears building. They
decided to request eX-Captain Fre-
mont Stokes to assume command of
the temporary organization and ar
ranged to begin recruiting. Nineteen
eX-members have already indicated
their willingness to re-enlist.
EX-Captain Dimmick, of Company A,
ex-Lieutenant Scott, OF Company b;
ex- Lieutenant Davis, of CompanyC and
| eX-Sergeants Edwards and CARING, Of
| Company F, are arranging TO begin
the reorganization of their respective
companies. In an interview yesterday
q gentleman we'll known in military
affairs said to a Tribune reporter:
"I have reason to believe the report
| is true that Governor Hastings has
requested Colonel Morrell to organize
a brigade in and about Philadelphia.
| We feel assured that he will make
| the same request of men who may
! be in command of two other brigades
| in other parts of the state A govern
ment call for more troops may change
| this plan temporarily but not per-
manently, for everyone knows as well
as the governor that the state cannot
! get along without it's customary home
| protection.
"If the presidents call should come
after the reorganization of the guard
| is we'll under way tia regiments would
be turned over to toe government as
|
would, l believe, enlist for state SER
vice with the purpose of volunteer
ing when the time came.
while no trouble would be eXper-
fenced in securing competent men for
| officers commissions, few of them
would care to go to the expense of
equipping themselves under the old
rules of the guard unless assured that
the guard is to be permanent in case
it is not asked to volunteer. 1t would
be no joke for thirty or forty officers
of a new Thirteenth to spend 500 each
for uniforms and other equipment and
then be honorably discharged with
their commands in order to make way
for the old regiments on their re-
turn from war.
MY hope is that the recruiting OF
the new companies will be continued
The questions of organizing perma-
nently or volunteering can be settled
later, when the details of Governor
Hastings plan is known.

sidewalk and a portion of the street
have slid into the ravine on the lower
side. The section washed out is about
fifteen feet deep and eight feet across.
This particular position was fenced off
sometime ago owing to its dangerous
looseness.
All the sewer basins were more or
less choked and the streets unpaved

soon after the storm patching up and
opening basins.
SERVICE CRIPPLED.
The Street Railway service was
somewhat handicapped. At the curve
near the Central Railroad of New Jer-
sey a short circuit created great ex-
element aboard the cars standing
there. In spite of the torrents, the
more timid ones left the cars. Car SO2
of the Washburn Vestibule had its
lamp circuit blown out and a candle
furnished the light for a time.
The electric street lamps were out
during the continuance of the Aorm
and West Scranton was in total dark
nesss.
The wind blow down two flags on
Wyoming avenue and swept them
along to the Dime bank corner. One
is a silk flag and the other of rough
material. They were taken to the po-
lice station and the owners may get
them upon naturalization.
