Terms Of Settlement.

A number of coal operators and
their attorneys met in Hazleton a few
days ago for the ostensible purpose of
considering the claims of farmers along
the Catawissa Valley for damages
caused by coal dirt in the water
courses. The claims range from $500
to $1,000 each and it is believed that
terms of settlement will be offered.
There were present: Attorney S. P.

New Officers for D, i. 4 W.


II is stated that on March I, Vice
President Edwin X Holden will sever
his connection with the Delaware,
Lackawanna & Western Railroad
Company, and that his resignation
has already been presented to the
Board Of Directors Of The company.
The resignation is not unlocked for,
as it was announced at the time that
Samuel Sloan retired from the presi-
dency and William II. Truesdale was
elected to succeed him, that Mr.. Hol-
den would follow suit. Since Presl-
dent Truesdale has been in charge OF
this company the policy has been
changed and there has been a general
Improvement made throughout the
system. Mr.. Holden's duties consist
ed principally in looking after the an
thracite coal trade Of this company,
and under his directions the output or
production of anthracite coal by the
Delaware, Lackawanna & Western
was exceedingly large, generally more
than its allotment. 1t is stated in coal
circles that under the old regime this
company was instrumental IN often
causing break in coal prices, as it
was then the policy to get rid OF its
coal and not keep large stock on
hand.
Since President Truesdale has been
in charge there has been change,
and while Mr.. Holden has remained
at the head OF the coal business this
company has not been SO aggressive
as it formerly was anG has lived up to
all agreements. The Vanderbilt inter
ests are influential in the Lackawahna
Company, and it was through this
interest that the changes in the head
were made. 1t was generally under
stood at this time that plans were in
contemplation for radical changes in
the management and policy Of the
road similar to the changes carried
into execution in the New York Cen
tral Railroad on the election OF S. r.
Galloway as president of that com
pany. Mr.. Truesdale is understood
to have been the personal choice of
William X. Vanderbilt, and since his
appointment he has done considerable
work in bringing the Delaware, Lack
awanna & Western more to the front
in improving its train service and IN
other matters which have been OF
great advantage to the company.
RESERVATIONS OF THE PAST.
Shortly after President Truesdale's
election 1t was reported that a num-
Der of the older officials of the COM
pany who had been for many years
associated with President Sloan would
also retire from active duties. The
first resignation was that of Andrew
Reasoner, for twenty eight years sup
erintendent of the Morris & Essex
Division. In April Frederick H. Glib
bens, the treasurer, who had been con-
nected with the company since 1860,
sent in his resignation, to take effect
on June 1. Willis d. Hager, general
purchasing agent, who had been in
the Lackawanna service for thirty-four
years; John McKenna, chief detective
with record of twenty-four years
faithful service, and w. r. Storrs,
manager of the local department, who
had been employed by the company
for many years, sent i'll their resigna-
tions in May.
The next month William f. Hall
stead, of Scranton, the second vice

Asks Damages For Dogs Bite.

Frank H. Smith, of Selllnsgrove,
brought suit in the Snyder county
courts against the Borough of Selins-
grove to recover $4,000 damages for
the bite mad dog inflicted upon his
two-year-old child last July. Mr..
Smith alleges negligence on the part
of the borough In not taking steps to
regulate the running at large of dogs
which were bitten by dogs infected
with rabies.

Fridays Williamsport Snn says:
Joseph Swank, whose home, up
to month or so ago was at Muncy,
is reported to have gotten into trou-
BILE near Bloomsbury. He was en-
ployed by Charles Greasy, at Cabin
Run. Columbia county. Last Tues
day evening he went to the post
Office and secured the mail address
ed to Mr.. Greasy, and then disap-
peared. Among the mail were
several important letters that Greasy
was expecting. Efforts were made
to find Swank and yesterday he was
located on farm, about a mile
north of Bloomsbury, where the
misappropriated mail was recover
ed. Greasy, at first, was inclined to
arrest the young man, but subse-
quently decided to let him off,"

der statements, sidewalk advertise
ments and rubber stamps, and
would patronize the home printing
Offices.
