The weekly demonstration of pho

night at the Scranton Camera club.
The subjec- discussed was; How 10

mOnstrator illustrated to his audience
how clouds ana cloud effects could be
made to print out in what would other
wise be blank sky.
a photograph of the Columbus nonu-

PETITION IS DEFECTIVE.
Providence Pave Meets with Another
Stumbling Block.

According to the opinion of Mayor
Bailey and City Solicitor McGiniSy the
petition for paving Providence road,
from Court street to the city line, which
was presented Wednesday for sub
mission TO councils is lacking the ne
cessary number of signatures.
The law directs that tine mayo2 shall
approve the petition if it is found 10
meet the requirements, and certify the
same 10 councils. The petition con-
tains the signatures of about ninety
property holders, while the city assass-
ment shows that there are two hun
dred and thirty property holders on
the thoroughfare to be paved.
There is a question as to whether it
is a majority of the property holders
or a majority of the oot-frontage that
the law requires. If it is a majority
Of the property holders as the mayor
is inclined to believe, the petition is
deficient without question.
If a majority Of the foot frontage
is called for, it will be nect asary, 50

as the city engineer, TO make affidavit
that the petition meets the require.

SHIPPING BILL.
Representative Fitzgerald Makes
supplementary Report.

Washington, Feb. 2.--Representative
Fitzgerald, of Massachusetts, Il mem
Der of the house committee on mer-
chant marine. today made a supple
mentary minority report on the Hanna
Payne shipping bill. He says he
agrees with the views of the minority
in 50 far as thew oppose the passage
of the proposed bill granting eXOrbit~
ant subsidies and bounties to ship own
ers and builders He is unaltera bly,
opposed to these great eXactions upon
the public treasury as are the gentle
men who sign the minority report, but
so long as the protective policy exists
in this country as the law of the ma
tion he does not consider it just to per-
init free trade in ships while protect
i've duties are imposed upon all Other
articles of commerce and consumption.
The men engaged in the ship build
ing industry who are compelled to pay
protective prices for everything that
they use and consume, should have like
privileges and benefits for the product
of their labor. Free ships should not
come until at least We have free coal,
free iron ore and other free raw ma
terials."

EXCITEMENT AT PANA.
Reported Shooting at the Camps
Causes Agitation,

Pana, H., Feb. 2.-Reported firing to-
day in the Springside mining district,
where the imported negro miners are
quartered, caused considerable excite
ment and for a time it was believed a
battle had broke out with the white
union miners. The provost guard went
double quick to the vicinity but We're
unable to ascertain who did the shoot
ing or what We're the results.
A movement is on foot to Induce
Sheriff Downey to ask Governor Tan
ner to withdraw the troops here. The
governor has stated that he is willing
to comply with any reasonable request
that officer may make. II the sheriff
will say that he is able to keep order
without troops it is probable that the
soldiers will be recalled. The union
miners organization received a dona-
tion of two cars Of coal today and

THAT PLAN OF MORGAN'S
in April -- Reason for This
Action An Opinion
About New Road.

"A report was in general circulation
yesterday IT, the effect that the full
scope and methods of the Morgan
hard coal restoration are not to be
made public until some time in April"
says the Philadelphia stakeholder. 1t
is admitted that the plans have been
completed and the necessary agree
ments and contracts, committing all
interests to The new order of things.
have been concluded. II is significant
ly remarked. however, that there are
three state legislatures in session, those
Of New York New Jersey and Penrsyl-
Vania
while it is not in contemplation
to undertake anything even remotely
susceptible OF opposition upon legal
grounds, it is obvious that any meas
ure suggestive of cooperation among
the anthracite interests would invite
antagonistic legislation. In other
words, while the plan adopted is COM
mercially and legally sound, those ole
ments ordinarily antipathetic to rail-
roads and to corporations generally
would seize upon the preteXt that
might thus be presented TO attempt
suppressive legislation, as did the New
Jersey lawmakers in 1892. There was
no statute prohibitivc of the Mcleod
combine in that state: so they made
one.
For example. there is no law pre-
venting corporation formed for those
purposes from buying at the breakers
every ton Of anthracite mined in Penn
sylvania and selling the same in New
Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Hi
nois or elsewhere. Such an orsaniza-
tion undoubtedly would be denounced
as trust until as in the history ot
trusts generally, it turned out to be
rather beneficial To consumers and pro-
ducers alike. And what an opportun-
ity for the legislators! Hence. it is in
timated, the new coal trade conditions
are to be brought about in a modest
way and without that hurrah which
the stock market seems 10 he waiting
for. There are intimations. indeed, that
the new dispensation actually is ef-
fective today with respect to import
ant phases Of the situation. Evidences
Of this will come into sight from day
to day.
The assertion that the project for
a new coal road has not been aban-
doned is not taken seriously in we'll
informed circles. While not question:
ing the sincerity Of it's advocates, The
Stockholder has all along held to tn,
conviction that mutual concessions
would render another road unneces-
sary, not to speak of the almost in
superable difficulties with which sucI
an enterprise would be confronted
Protestations to the effect that the
road is going through had their in,
tended effect yesterday of enabling
certain interests to secure anthracite
stocks at fractional recessions, but the
New York, Wyoming and Western is
likely soon to disappear from view
finally"
