Preliminary arrangements for the an
nual parade and inspection of the
Scranton fire department were made at
a meeting of the board of fire engineers
last night. The date of Thursday,
Sept. 90, was selected.
1t was decided not to invite compan-
les from outside the city. This con-
clusion was reached because of the
proximity of the date OF the state con-
vention of firemen at Lebanon Oct. 4.
District Chiefs McManus, Jones and
O'Malley were named as a committee
on programme, and Raynor and Wirth
a committee on music.
The two new pieces of apparatus for
which councils recently awarded con-
tracts to Charles Holloway will not be
delivered here until after the date of
the inspection. For this reason it was
decided not to comply at once with
the resolution adopted by councils at
the boards suggestion suggesting the
transfer of old apparatus from the Col
umbia and Relief to other companies.

NEW SHAFT AT NANTICoKE.
susquehanna Coal Company Intends
TO Sink 1t,

The Susquehanna Coal company is
about to sink new shaft between
Nanticoke and Glen Lyon. 1t Will be
about a mile and a half from the lat
ter on what is known as the old JohnA

ship materials for the new structures
to be put up. Another force of men
is at work clearing ground for the
engine house, boiler houses and a num-
ber of dwelling houses which will be
erected to accommodate the workmen
employed at the new mine.
The new shaft will have four hoist
ing ways, each Sx13 feet and the whole
shaft will be 13x33 feet and about $50
feet deep. 1t will be deep enough to
tap all the veins reached by the Nanti-
coke mines. The coal will be hauled
by small locomotives to Nanticoke for
preparation for market. 1t will reach
Nanticoke at the foot of the plane near
the Central Railroad of New Jersey
depot and can then be hauled to either
No. or No. breaker.
The new shaft will tap a large area
of coal and will give employment to a
large number of workmen.

$4,000 Damages.

Through Attorney c. II. Soper, Anna
L. Ross yesterday brought a $1,000
trespass suit against her mother, Mrs.
r. NJ. Rutland, of Dalton.
Mrs. rutland and her daughter have
been engaged in no end of litigation
over property that descended from the
husband and father. In one of the
many suits Mrs. Rutland obtained n
judgment for $3.50 against Frank Ross,
her daughters husband. She attached
a property which she supposed belong
ed to her son-in-law, but which it ap-
pears is owned by Mrs. Ross.
The annoyance and expense of de-
Tending this suit and the lessening Of
the value of the property by reason Of
its being made the subject of litigation
has damaged the plaintiff so, she al
leges, in the amount claimed.
