COLD STORAGE WAREHOUSE.
Company Has Been Organized for the
Purpose of Conducting One.

Application will be made on the last
day of this month for q charter for
q new cold storage company to be
styled the Scranton Coal Storage and
Warehouse company. Its projectors
are David Spruks, oswald Jones, j. L.
Hull, w. II. Pierce and Max Rice, lead
ing wholesale merchants Of lower
Lackawanna avenue. The company Is
to succeed Jones & Spruks, who are
now engaged in the cold storage busi-
ness on Sixth street.
1t is the purpose of the new COM
pany to enlarge and modernize the
Jones & Spruks warehouse by doubling
it's capacity and changing the refrig-
Grating system from the natural ice
to the ammonia and brine" or chemi-
cal process.
The change in the system will in it.
self almost double the storage capac-
ity. The eight cooling rooms, under
the new system, will accommodate
forty car loads of goods where only
half that capacity is obtainable under
the natural ice system. The struc-
ture, which is 50x7O and four stories in
heighth, will be enlarged according
as the business may warrant.
The principal patrons will be the
members of the company and their
neighbors among the jobbers in the
wholesale block. The increase in bust
ness among these merchants and the
impractcability of enlarging their
stores makes a commodious warehouse
an absolute necessity. Then again
cold storage on a sort of community
plan such as this is designed to be is a
great saving. The use of the ware
house, however, will not be confined
to those above mentioned. Any one
may himself profit of it's benefits.
An gg-carrying" room with ven
tilating fiues and facilities for accur-
ately regulating the temperature will
be one of the features. Any tempera-
ture desired down to tn zero mark can
be maintained by means of the new
system to be installed.

The Prisoner OF Zenda.

A company of players rarely presents a
drama so that the medium is not de-
tectable, so that in fact, the audience
sees only the story and forgets the ar
lists. This same enviable attainment in
art Is the feature of "The Prisoner of
Zenda," as 1t will be presented by Dam
lei Frohman's special company at the
Lyceum this evening. Anthony Hopes
romance, the most delicious story of
many years in literature, will be there
done by the players so that the medium
will be apparent to no one. The actors
are forgotten. There is no time to OBJ
serve their talents, and what higher
compliment can be paid them?

well balanced, and among them are such
well-known names as Frank Ridsdale,
Frederick Knights John Mayon, j. Du-
crow, Joseph Sparks, Lillian Burnham,
Emily Gardini, Dollie Namyl and 9TH
ers. The company is a large one. and is
said to number siXty-two people Spo-
cial attention has been given the chorus

prominent and pleasing features.

IN CASE OF WAR SPAIN WOULD
NOT RECEIVE AID
Says Well informed Members
of Parliament.

New York, March IA dispatch to the
World from London says: The sugges-
ton in certain New York dispatches that
in the event OF war between the United
States and Spain the latter may receive
active cooperation from some unnamed
European power, is treated with entire in
creduilty in political circles.
World representative discussed the
question in the house of commons lobby
with several members of parliament who
are acknowledged authorities on foreign
affairs.
All concurred in expressing the opinion
that should war break out between the
United States and Spain in relation TO Cuba
both powers would have fair field and
no favor as far ms European countries are
concerned.
Sir Charles Dixie. the highest unofficial
authority ON such questions in England
has already at an early stage of the diff
ficulty between Spain and the United
States uttered his belief that no European
power would intervene. He reiterated
that view, saying:
ion in that regard. although l can not be-
lieve that war is likely TO take place No
European power has any direct interest
in helping Spain"
Thomas Gibson Bowles member OF par
lament, who had just delivered long
aud able speech in the house OF commons
on the Far East imbroglio, said:
u should think it most unlikely that any
European power would interpose 10 help
Spain or otherwise. don't see what
power is to do so, or why any power should
do so.
There is no European interest touched
by this Cuban business thst would tempt
any country TO NEEDLE with it,
These statements indicate the general
trend OF opinion here which. while re-
garding the possibility of war as remote.
treats such an eyentuali;y as purely an
affair for the two countries concerned.
1t is right 10 add however. that this
skepticism about the possibility OF war is
not shared in diplomatic circles.
A leading member OF che st. James
club, where diplomatists principally gather
states an official belonging 10 the Spanish
embassy said to a circle OF friends
"A rupture may take place any day,
Spain being more Iikely 10 bring II about
oven than the United States.
The position OF the Spanish govern
ment is becoming intolerable. and the in
slant our cabinet becomes convinced thar
the United States mean war, Madrid will
force the situation 10 head"

10 consider, officially. any OF the phases
OF the affair. Mr.. DuBosc feels satisfied

the findings will be sufficiently conclusive

disaster.
