Industrial Notes,

The mine inspectors have ascertained
that at the present rate at which water
is rising in the abandoned York Farm
colliery near Pottsville, the mine will
shortly commence to overflow.
Arrangements are under way for the
re-opening of the Tresckow collieries
near Hazleton, which have been idle
for the last three years. The water
is being pumped out and repairs made
on the machinery.
The ontario and Western Railroad
company has very pretty Dewey cele-
bration posters out advertising the
many advantages of the road and its
accommodations to convey passengers
to New York next week.
The new transfer freight station OF
the Lackaw~nna road being erected at
West Scranton is rapidly nearing com
pletion. The large corps of carpenters
are engaged in placing the roof on the
building. 1t is expected that the build
ing will be ready for occupancy within
a fortnight.
Six Of the fifteen handsome passen-
ger coaches the Barney & Smith Car
company, of Dayton, o., are building
for the Lackawanna road reached the
city Sunday and We're sent on to Dover
yesterday. At the shops there the cars
will be equipped with an electric light
system. Six more of the order reached
Buffalo yesterday. The new coaches
are to be used for suburban service out
of Hoboken.

Boilermakers' Strike over.

The thirty-five boilermakers at the
Cliff works, who went out on strike
Tuesday last, returned to work yester-
day morning, under the old conditions.
The grievance the men had was that
the new foreman, Andrew Brown, Of
Paterson. n. j., had a certain kind of
work known as chipping" done by
laborers and helpers, which the jour
neymen thought was not fair. They
contended that this work should be
done by apprentices. who in turn would
become journeymen. The strikers
claimed when they went out, that de-
spite many protests against the exist
ing conditions, they were not given the
consideration they deserved.
Up to Saturday last there was no con-
ference between the strikers and Super
intendent Delaney, of the works. Late
in the day the men called on Mr.. De-
laney and signified their Willingness to
return to work, and. as above stated,
they all returned yesterday morning.

In few ways has the recent change in
management of the D., l.. & w. rail
road been more conspicuously i'm evil
dence than the new managementS at
ttude toward the newspaper fraternity
Under the old regime such thing as
a Lackawanna official deeming it ad-
visable to be ordinarily courteous to
the representatives of the press in the
necessary intercourse incident to the
pursuit of news was rare. Standing or
<lers held the reporter at a distance,
the idea apparently being that the pub
lie had no right to be interested in a
public institution. There were, Of
course, honorable exceptions to this
rule and upon occasions the manage
ment had attacks of liberality but upon
the whole there was an unnecessary
and foolish antagonism.
Since the change in management
there has been a decided change Of
policy in this. as in other respects. The
new men are mainly young men and
western men, who have been educated
No believe that the hearty whole-souled
way of doing business is the best way
20 make friends and therefore the
wisest policy. As an example of what
We mean. the other day every editor
along the Lackawanna line received
from the new passenger agent, Mr.. Lee,
an invitation, with the Company's com
pliments. to be its guest on the day of
the Dewey naval parade in New York.
An observation pier has been secured
for the accommodation of these guests
and upon it the newspaper representa-

tives will have facilities for properly
observing and noting data for the de-
scriptions which they will lay before
the hundreds of thousands of persons
at home who could not be present to
witness this notable event in person.
Now this was not in itself an excep-
tionally costly or difficult undertaking
on the company's part, but it will be
the means of establishing at the very
beginning of the new regime a neigh
borly feeling between the railway Off
cials and the editors in the commune
ties which the railway touches, and in
perfectly legitimate and creditable
manner the company will doubtless be
amply repaid.
The neatness of this little attention to
the press consists in the fact that the
day upon which ii is extended is the
very day when the energies of the
road will be strained to the utmost
limit to take care of the extraordinary
excursion business incident to the
Dewey celebration

LYMAN ABeoTT'S SUCCESSOR.
The Reported Selection of the Rev. ID
Hills of Chicago.

Hills of Chicago.
Brooklyn, N. Y, Jan. At is not
unlikely that the Rev. DR.. Newell
Dwight Hills, pastor of the Central
Church of Chicago, will succeed the
Rev. DR.. Lyman Abbott as pastor of
Plymouth church.
1t is very probable that the advisory
committee of Plymouth church will
recommend that DIR. Hills be called.
1t is generally believed that he will
accept and that by spring the celebra-
ted Chicago divine will be preaching
in historic Plymouth.
DIR. Hills Is a native of Iowa, and
In forty years old He was educated
at Grinnell Academy, at Lake Forest
University, and at Mccormick Semi
nary.
For three years after leaving his
theological studies he was pastor of
the First Presbyterian Church of Pc
oria. From 1890 to 1894 he preached
from the pulpit of the First church in
Evanston, Ind.
In December, 1894, he succeeded Pro-
fessor Swing at the Central Church
DR.. Hills, like his predecessors of Ply
mouth and Central churches, is a writ
er. The four books he has published
are: "Foretokens of Immortality"
How the Inner Light Failed" "a
Mans Value to Society,"" and "The In
vestment of Influence"

Quay Carries Caucus.

Harrisburg, Pa, Jan. 4.-Despite the
efforts of the opponents of Senator
Quay to obtain postponement of the
senatorial caucus, the adherents of the
senior senator carried their point last
night and secured the Endorsement of
their favorite by 109 of the 154 Repub-
licans of the Pennsylvania legisla-
ture.
This is nineteen less than the num-
Der necessary to elect United Stotes
senator on joint ballot, the total men,
bershp being 255, of which 12S is a ma
jority.
Senator Martin was not present, but
Senator Magee was, and it was on his
motion that the nomination was made
unarimous.
The anti-Quay leaders are jubilant
over the result of the caucus and as
sert that the man they are fighting
can never succeed himself in the SEN
ate.

A GRAND DUKES VISIT.
Cyril of Russia Talks Interestingly of the
Worlds Affairs.

/ New York, Jan. 4.-The Grand Duke
Cyril Vladimirovitch, cousin of the
czar of Russia, who arrived in New
York Monday night on his way to Eu-
rope after two years duty in Chinese
waters, visited the Russian Orthodox
church, at No. 1923 Second avenue, yes
.erday.
The grand dukes stay will be brief.
He sails on the Fuerst Bismarck to-
day. to attend the wedding of his sis
ter, the Grand Duchess Helena, to
Prince MaXimilian of SAKE. The duke
received the representatives of the
press in the state peslor of the Wal
dorf- Astoria. which was profusely dec
GRATED with palms and roses. Lieu
tenant Koubc was in attendance.
The duke looks to be 26 or % years
old. He is six feet tall and good look
ing. His face is rather feminine in
feature. 1t is almost too perfectly oval
for man, and the high cheek bones
of the typical Russian are absent His
eyes are large and very intelligent. His
mouth is small and he wears a lstle
brown moustache that is not at all
Russian. His hair is straight and
brown and he wears it short.
and speaks it as If firing off orders
sharp, quick and curt
The duke thinks that the American
success in the late war with Spain.
while 1t is a source of congratulation,
will also bring about new obligations
and burdens not easy to bear.
He believes that we will have much

them sooner or later.
The presence of the United States in
the Far East, he said, was entirely
satisfactory to Russia. and would lead
to peace in the Orient. The opposition
of England to all Russian possession
in China did not disturb his people
He thought the partition of China is
only question of time and France.
England, Russia and Germany will
share the spoils.
The grand duke spoke enthusiastic
cally about the Trans Siberian Rail-
way and thought that it would be Of
the greatest value in colonizing Sibe-
ria, and also in affording easy access
for troops to the Pacific.
The American women will be happy
to hear that his highness considers
them ''the most beautiful in the
world"
Bishop Nicholas, retiring prelate OF
the Russian church in America, who
will take ship with the grand duke,
to-day, presided at the church service
yesterday and made an address.
The church, by the way, is the gift
of the czar to the Russians of New
York in return for the sympathy ex-
pressed at the death of his father. He
sent the clergy over and pays the rem
tails and expenses to great extent

dead and his body frozen.

been tied, have gone in pursuit of the
