The work on the new terminal i'm

pany, mention of which was made in the
Inter- Mountain a few weeks ago, will be
resumed in about two weeks, if the
weather will permit.
The. Northern Pacific's system of inter-

of construction at the Montana Central

train and makes a collision almost i'm

signal to proceed cannOt be displayed un-

A railroad into the Republic country is
only a matter of time, according to Presl-
len James J. Hill of the Great Northern,
in a Spokane interview. Mr.. Hill said
plainly that sooner or later the business
of Republic would grow to such magni-
tude as to make a railroad to that place
necessary. already have a line
within 45 miles of it," said he, ''and l am
not informed that the business will justi-
fy any closer connection for the present.
1t is only a question of time, however,
when there will be need for a line directly
into the camp, and when that time ar
rives we will be the ones to build How
ever, the great railway magnate would
give no positive assurance Of his inten-
ton to build into the new country, but
seemed to consider that mining section
as rightful territory of the Great North
ern railway. We will look after the
transportation part Of it," said he. THE
Canadian Pacific is building into the
northern country with government mon
ey and should be in a position to carry
Canadian products there cheaply. Spo-
kane occupies a most advantageous posi-
ton in relation to all that country and
should not let the value Of that advan-
tage be reduced If she does her part,
We will provide the transportation" In
cidentally he intimated that the people
of Spokane ought to build a smelter, and
laughed at the idea Of the Great North
ern building a smelling plant there. His
work, he said, was to provide Transport
tation. THE Republic country said he,
lis a great mineral country, the most
promising district north of Spokane. The
whole section for 50 miles south Of the
boundary line from the Idaho line to the
Cascades is rich in mineral. 1t will be
developed some day. We will give you
the transportation necessary to handle
its mineral if you elect to handle it,"
He said he understood the Republic
country to be a free milling ore, and
remarked that if there We're smelling
ores there a railroad into that camp
would do Spokane no particular good I'M
less the people of that city were enter
prising enough to build a smelter.

Extending the LAckawanna.

There is a strong probability that the
Lackawanna will tap Bradford county.
"A proposition has been made TO Presi-
dent Truesdale to have the Lackawan-
ma extend a line from Nichols, TiOga
county. down through Rome and then
over to LeRaysville, a distance Of
twenty-six miles through one of the
richest valleys in the United States.
The proposition contemplates the
construction Of the road by the Lacka-
wanna with the assistance of the resi-
dents Of the region. and it is said Presi-
dent Truesdale looks upon it with much
favor.
The company will be granted a free
right of way, and if it wishes to dis
pose of some of the stock, to insure co.
operation from the residents of the
region, the local promoters will agree
TO take a good-sized block OF it,
The route has been surveyed by the
Dunning Engineering company, of this
city, and Chief Engineer Dunning is to
show President Truesdale over the pro-
posed line just as soon as the latter
can find time to make the trip.
Hon. Frank Moore, of LeRaysville is
at the head of the project. He says
the road is sure to come and feels that
the Lackawanna will not hesitate to
take it in hand, when it's advantages
are understood

Three Of the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western collieries that have been
idle for more or less extended periods
will resume operations just as soon as
they can be put in shape. They are
the Sloan, the Central and the Hyde
Park, all located in Keyser Valley.
BY judicious management in the
transportation department the Lacka-
wanna has escaped the car famine and.
being in a position to take advantage
of the present big rdemand for coal,
proposes to make all that is possible
out of it's advantage.
All the collieres will be worked to
their fullest capacity and these three
collieries, which have laid idle for one
reason or another for from six weeks
TO six months, will be gotten in shape
for work with all possible haste, that
the most can be made out Of the pres
ent boom.
The Sloan and Central had been OPP
Grated Jointly since the burning of the
Central breaker When the slump came
in the market they went idle and there
was no telling when they would start
up again, until the present boom came.
The Hyde Park colliery was shut down
about six weeks ago for repairs. The
repairs were progressing at an ordi-
nary rate until now, but from this on
they will be pushed with all rapidity.
Superintendent Loomis says that it will
not be long after the first of October
before all three colleries will be going
again at their full capacity.
Each colliery employed about 6OC
hands. When they shut down these
men were taken care of as far as pos
sible at the other mines, but many OF
them have had to be content with a
day now and then wherever they could
ge: job.

most improved breakers in tho anthra-
cite coal regions.
This and That,

Last Saturday was a record breaker
in the matter of coal shipments from
here over the Lackawanna. The total
tonnage was 27,SOO tons.
The Erie Railroad company has pur-
chased $4,000 lanterns. with which it
will decorate its piers in Jersey City
and Weehawken in honor of Admiral
Dewey
1t is an undisputed fact that there is
no railroad or private concern that has
as modern and up-to-date blacksmith
shop as the one just completed at
Sayre for the Lehigh Valley.
c. A. Tenbrooke, the new division
freight agent for the Lackawanna
I main line, will take charge Oct. J..
He is now in the city acquainting him.
self v tth his duties. Mr.. Te ,brooke
came from the wabash and ackawan-
ma Dispatch.
A new breaker, one of the largest in
the world, has just been completed and
put in operation at Williamstown by
| the Pennsylvania Coal company. The
starting OF tho breaker will give en-
ployment to 200 more miners. The
capacity is 1000 tons a day.
The electric lighting system at White
Mills, Wayne county, is now installed
and on Saturday evening next the cur
rent will be turned on for the first
time The system is opened as an ad-
| junct to the Hawley Electric Light
| company, which is composed of Scran-
| ton men. The current for White Mills
is supplied from Hawley over a five-
| mile wire.
Officials say that If traffic continues
| to grow in October and November as it
has in the last thirty days, a car fam
| inc will exist on every road in the
| country. This, they say, means that
earnings will continue to show large
| gains over those of former years. The
famine will likely result in a faster
freight schedule all over the country
| which may be retained after the supplN
of cars has been increased to meet tht
| demand
| A railroad man in commenting upor
the shortage of cars, said: "The rail.
roads are short 100000 cars. This is II
spite Of the fact that they have thi.
year added 100000 cars to their euuip.
ment. These new cars hold from one.
half more to double the amount of tho
old cars, and We make them 10 pei
cent. more valuable still by bette,
methods Of handling them. But, con.
sidering all this, the car shortage i,
relatively greater than it ever was be-
fore"

Not So Bad Hereabouts,

The car famine is not having as il,
effects here as in the west. If any,
thing 1t is beneficial to this immediate
locality, because the soft coal shippers
who are more seriously affected by
the scarcity of cars are unable to i'll
their orders, and the anthracite people
as consequence are making inroads
on their territory.
The Lackawanna anticipated the
boom and at the sacrifice of some small
orders kept their cars at home. in
consequence it has fully supply and,
as related above, is looking about for
more coal.
The Delaware and Hudson company
has also refused orders which meant
q long detention of cars and is like
wise in very good shape for shipping.
There was some trouble in the early
stages OF the BOOM but when custom
ers who detained cars beyond a rca-
sonable time found that the sales de-
partment was discriminating against
them and in favor of dealers. VINO re.
turned cars at once, they plead guilty,
promised reform and when given an
opportunity showed they were sincere
by dumping the cars at once and ship
ping them right back to the company.
The Importance of this matter is evl-
IDENTIFY not realized by the customers.
A big car will earn in a time like this
a net profit Of $50 day. The custom
er seems to imagine where he pays
the required sum a day demurrage that
the company has no cause to further
demur. In up-to-date American, it IS
very probable that "he has another
think coming"
What the companies think of it NAV
be gather from the fact that the Della
ware and Hudson has created the office
of car tracer and placed it in charge
of one of the best men in its sales de-
partment T.. NJ Vernoy.
