Mr.. Fox Replies
Editor of The Tribune.


Sir: An article in your paper of the
Sd inst, under the head Of Bird Man Is
Obstinate" does me an injustice. / beg,
my dear sir, that YOU will give this my
reply, the space that in all fairness Ii is
entitled to. The bird man is not obsti-
nate, indeed quite the contrary, he is
most generous and kind. Two months
ago when DR.. Hand complained of the
growing of the chickens | disposed Of
many at sacrifice prices and when next
he complained it was the barking of the
dogs, and acting under the advice OF the
board of health, to whom DR.. Hand
complained, i placed the dogs in the cell
lar at night, and so dispensed with the
barking. The next complaint was to
the effect that the flies had increased
over 800 per cent, and that this nuisance
must be abated at once. l was the re-
cipient of orders from the chief of po-
lice and the board of health, and my
laEdlady, Mrs. Jewell, who heartily sym
pathizes with me, gave me "fy-netting'
which l tackled over the window which
is now nailed shut with DR.. Hands
boards. The truth of the matter is
simply this. DIR. Hand has had an old
axe to grind-one of long standing; the
grinding is between Jewell and Hand,
and Fox the bird man, is the "go-be-
tween" for DR.. Hands grinding. When
is located, DR.. Hand took exceptions to
the same, and was compelled to alter one
of his QIand's) rooms in consequence
at least this is how the story goes. / was
not here at the time, and since my ar
rival the doctor has used his best en-
deavOrs to turn me out.
! offered to leave this place two months
ago but the Jewel's would not release
me; at that time / had a store suitable
for my business, but | do most emphat-
iCally refuse to move at this time, un-
less Messrs. Jewell and Hand will pay
my expenses in doing so. Besides, there
is no law that can put me out; my place
is kept scrupulously clean, there are no
bad odors, and my experience of twenty
five years in the business would not
permit me to have the place in any other
condition. ! have a lease for a year,
and pay my rent promptly i'm advance
and can produce 500 business mcn-your
best citizens-who will glady Vouch for
every statement l make so far as the
cleanliness of my store and my integrity
are concerned. ! am, sir, yours truly,

TWO MEN ARRESTED
They Are Suspected of Having Some
thing to Do with the Shoot
ing of officers Kays
and Snyder.

Special officer Snyder, who with Of
ficer Kays was shot by unknown men
on Saturday evening, followed two
men from the central city last evening
to West Scranton, claiming that one of
them was the man who did the shoot
ing.
Together with Constable John Davis,
Snyder followed them to their board
ing house in Morris court where they
were arrested. Their names are An
t. o Cessu and Joseph Smith, and
an employed as laborers in the mines.
They were taken to the West Side
police station and locked up.
Burgess Powell and the chief of po-
lice, of Dunmore, We're sent for, and
closely questioned the prisoners, but
nothing was developed that would in
any way cOnHect them with the shoot
ing. The prisoners wear a smaller
sized hat than the one found near
where the shooting occurred.
a few threads OF cloth were found
on the barbed-wire fence, and an eX-
animation of the suspects trousers
was made by Burgess Powell. There
is a rent in the cloth as if torn by the
wire, which has recently been sewed,
and the threads found correspond in
some respects to the material in the
prisoners trousers.
Both men deny any completely what
ever in the shooting and gave a reason
able account of their whereabouts Sat
urday evening. They will be held for
a hearing. County Detective Leyshon
has been notified and will make an
investigation.
DR.. Wilson, who Is acting house sur
geOn at the Lackawanna hospital, dur
ing the absence of DR.. Weaver, when
seen by a Tribune representative last
evening stated that the condition of
Kays was very encouraging and that
he entertained strong hopes for his re-
covery. He says that his temperature
is only a little above the normal and
that his pulse is also very good. This
is considered remarkable in view of
the serious wound which was inflicted

Lackawanna Situation.

An official of the Delaware. Lacka-
wanna and Western railroad was given
the following statement to an Official
of the Wall Street Journal:
THE newest phase of the situation
is said to be a move in the direction
of federation of the various organic
alton of employees for concerted action.
You may state positively that we have
been unable to find any foundation
for such a report. There is a general
movement for federation all over the
country on the part Of the brotherhoods
and orders, but nothing of the kind in
particular on the Lackawanna. We
continue to discharge men who are
not needed, and they, being sore, nat
urally continue TO do a good deal Of
bluffing, but you must bear in mind
two facts: These men know that we
are pursuing the proper policy and
the men who are in our employ are
heartily cooperating with us in max
ing this policy successful. In brief,
the policy is simply to get the best
results out of the railroad and it's rep
resentatiVes.
II recently went over the line and
talked to representatives of the var
ious classes of employees and was some
what surprised to find the extent to
which they had imbbed the spirit Of
the new management and the amount
of pride they took in adopting the new
methods. Being gentlemen, they are
not worrying over an order making
courtesy compulsory and, being men
of business instincts, they are glad to
know we expect them to act in busi-
ness-lke way. a man with an an
nual pass must show it or pay his fare.
Conductors believe in this. They know
where they stand and that they will
be protected in the full discharge of
their duties as we have outlined them.
Men who are discharged cannot strike.
The traffic policy of our road in re-
| tlected by the personality Of the man
who has been selected for the head of
| the traffic department. Il. d. Caldwell
| chairman of the Western Passenger
association, and may be summed up
in two words, aggressiveness and
| ability"

an eloquent address upon Conditions
of National Tenure" He spoke of the
manner in which the civilized peoples

changes which have taken place since
then and which are the result of civ
ilization.

THE situation in the anthracite coal
trade jut now is waiting one" says
the Engineering and Mining Journal.
"Oil and gas stoves are more generally
used every summer for domestic pur-
poses and the consumption of anthra-
cite at this season is largely for steam
production. Some of the collieries in
the Hazleton region have been very
busy the last few weeks, but this is
largely because the Readings fiscal
year ends June 3Oth.
I'm the Wyoming Valley the collier
les are working short time. but the
great demand for labor at many points
in the West has led to a considerable
movement i'm the floating population
Of the anthracite country and those
miners who remain are likely to find
their services i'm much steadier de-
mand this year than last. With "A con-
tinuation of this demand, particularly
from the Lake Superior country, for
another year, much of the surplus la
Dor that has been such a potent factor
in keeping down the total earnings OF
the anthracite miner may not rec e
higher wages. he will be sure of mdch
steadier employment.
There is little of interest in the
Western trade. The high freights up
the lakes have kept down receipts at
Superior and Duluth, while both buy
crs and sellers are waiting till the
regular buying season shall begin.
Much the same conditions prevail in
Chicago territory, where prices seem
well maintained. In the East con-
siderable amount of coal has gone
into storage during the month at the
tidewater shipping ports. At Boston
retail prices, continue low, with some
| selling. At Philadelphia and New
York the promised advance on July
| / has had little further effect and now
| the trade waits to see just how the ad-
| Yance will be maintained"

INCREASED ITS MEMBERSHIP.
Scranton Club Rewards the Patience
of the Waiting List.

The Scranton club has raised the
limit of it's residence membership from
one hundred and fifty to one hundred
and seventy-five and the out-of-town
membership to fifty.
This was done mainly to accommo-
date those on the waiting list. There
were nine applications on file and
some of them have been waiting for
many moths for a vacancy. The va
cancy, however did not come and as
none were in sight it was decided to
raise the limit and receive them in a
body.

It is a great injury 10 the company.
The men lose very much time when
visitors are about the mines, and this
