STEEL BARS AGAIN ADVANCE IN PRICE,

Pittsburg Nov 9-The price OF steel bars was ad-
vanced in Pittsburg to-day from 81 80 hundred
pounds TO 81 rs for prompt delivery This an
increase of IS ton. Even at these figures 1t Is al
most impossible to obtain steel bars for use any
time prior 10 the first OF the coming year For de-
livery In the second quarter OF 1900 price OF 81 30
a hundred pounds is asked. There has been little
buying selling of any kind In iron and steel ths
week. owing 10 the fact that the capacity OF the
steel mills and blast furnaces Is sold entirely for
the remainder Of the year. and the only orders that
are given at the gilt edge prices demanded by manu-
facturers are those OF emergency nature Iron
and steel sellers to-day predicted quiet market
until the latter part Of the year. and that no CON
tracts Of importance will be made until the new

upon as a coming man in the light

INVESTIGATION is ASKED.
Mine Inspector Requests the Coroner
to Hold an Inquest.

Mine Inspector Henry o. Prytherch,
of the Second Anthracite district. yes
terday requested Coroner j. j. Roberts
to make an official investigation into
the death of James Sullivan, the young
man who died last Thursday at the
Lackawanna hospital as a result of
scalds received at the Taylor culm
washery Monday night.
In accordance with the request, Cor
oner Roberts went to the residence of
the deceased on Taylor street, in Tay-
lor and empanelled a jury comprising
the following: Huber Frutchey, Thos
Hession. Wesley Fetzinger, William
Nyhart, Charles Davis and David j.
Jones. The jury viewed the remains
and will meet next Wednesday evening
in the arbitration room at the court
house.
The young man, who was one of two
tiremen employed at the Carson &
Davies culm washery in Taylor, was
severely scalded in attempting to ad-
just the ball which governs the steam
safety valve on the boilers. The es-
cape was popping at the time and when
young sullivan lifted the ball the pres
sure blew the valve check out and the
escaping steam literally roasted him.

TO MOVE THE HOSPITAL.
Hahnemann Will Soon Occupy the
Old w. w. Scranton Residence
at Monroe Avenue and
Linden Street.

The Hahnemann hospital is to move
from it's present location in the Blair
homestead to the building at the cor
ner of Monroe avenue and Linden
street, owned by w. w. Scranton, and
formerly occupied by him as a resi-
dence. The change will be made at
once.
The new home for the hospital is
an eighteen room building, richly fin
ished, interiorally. admirably located
and in every way desirable for the
purposes to which it is to be put. The
plot on which it is located is an acre
in extent.
The property for which w. T. Hack
EFT is agent, was on the market for
$4,000. If the expected state aid
is forthcoming the hospital directors
will purchase this place outright. At
present it will be leased by the year.
The Blair property is being consid-
cred as a site for the new Y. NJ. c. A.
building, but for fear a wrong impress
sion might be gained from this state
ment it is well to add that this had
nothing whatever to do with the hos
pitaps change of quarters.

An incendiary is thought to have
started fire which destroyed Oakley's
casket works and planning mill and a
dwelling on Madison avenue, Green
Ridge, early last evening.
The fire companies of Dunmore and
several of the companies of Scranton's
North End fire district responded to
the double alarm from Box Is, Dun
more, and Box 65, Scranton. l.. NJ.
Bennett, a driver for Proprietor oak
ley, of the casket works, discovered the
blaze while going to the stable to care
for his horses.
The fire started In the centre of the
mill and quickly ate its way out
through the top. The Neptune. Inde-
pendent and Smith companies, of Dun
more, and the Liberty, Niagara and
General Phnney companies, of SCran-
ton, were quickly on the scene, but
owing to the low pressure on the water
mains the fire could not be controlled.
The flames quickly spread to two
story frame dwelling on Elmot street,
owned by z. W. Ripley and occupied
by +. l.. Keene and Edward Wilmarth,
carpenter. The fire was so fierce that
only portion Of the household goods
could be saved. The dwellings of Mr.
Oakley on Madison avenue, and the
ones owned and occupied by p. w. Rip
ley and John Goodwin were in great
danger from the flames and sparks,
hut sections of small hose were taken
onto tho roofs and by this means the
buildings were saved.
Foreman Victor Burschel, of the In
dependents received severe fall while
trying to Get the hose on the porch
roof of the house occupied by Z. l..
Keene. He slipped and fell off the roof.
He was taken to his home, where a
bones broken and no internal injuries.
No fire had been maintained in the
mill for over a week. A week ago the
boiler in the works exploded and the
wreckage was taken out the next day.
The mill was then shut down, What
makes it seem more probable that an
incendiary caused the blaze is the fact
that the mill Of George Bingham was
broken into last Sunday night and a
fire started, but 1t was discovered by
the watchman in time to prevent any
damage.
Mr.. Oakley's loss will be about SIS, ,O0C
on the mill and machinery and many
valuable piles of lumber. He has nc
insurance.
Mr.. Rlpley's loss is 81 500 and his in
surance S400.
Mr.. Keene and Mr.. Wilmarth's loss
will be about 1925 each.
