cAvE-1N AT COLUMBIA MINE.
Several Duryea Homes Destroyed
and Railroad Is Disturbed,
Special to the Scranton Tribune.


Pittson, June 2s.-A serious settling
of the old mine workings of the Column
bia colliery at the lower end of Dur
yea caused considerable excitement
and not a little damage in the village
last night. The cave-in occurred about
IL o'clock and was accompanied by
loud rumbling noise which greatly
alarmed the people, VINO rushed from
their beds into the streets. rumor
that seven men were entombed in the
Halstead mine spread quickly, but IL
proved untrue. The men were at their
work, but the mine was not in the line
of the cave and was therefore not
effected. The area included in the
squeeze is about quarter of a mile
long and a quarter of mile wide,
extending from the Lackawanna river
westward to the old Back road ana
from just below the Benedict home
stead southwark to below the Column
bia breaker. In all the settled area
large and small cracks are numerous.
The most serious damage was done
on the west side of the Back road,
where the following houses were in
q dirct line of the cave, several large
cracks extending through the proper
ing down chimneys and cracking the
cellar foundations: House owned and
occupied by Joseph Walsh; house own
ed and occupied by Mrs. Margaret
Farrell; also one occupied by a Polish
family: house owned and occupied by
w. II. Jones, badly damaged; house
owned by w. II. Jones and occupied
by Michael Dunn; house owned by
Mrs. Thomas owens, of Nanticoke,
and occupied by Joseph Gordon. A
number of houses on the lower road
were twisted so that doors could not
be opened; a number of chimneys also
toppled over.
The 26-inch water main of the Spring
Brook Water company was broken in
five different places on the main street
and three places on the Back road
The tracks of the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western railroad were dis
turbed for a distance of 500 feet, es-
pecially a side track. the rails of which
were twisted and the track sunken
from four inches to two feet. The
Lehigh Valley cutoff tracks were
also disturbed for a distance of about
1000 feet, sinking from two to four
inches. Traffic was not delayed on
either road.
The Columbia collieYy, whose work.
ings cavcG-in, is an old mine and has
been idle for several months. The
inside damage, therefore, was not Of
much concern. 1t is thought the set
Ting has ceased by today and no
further damage is exnected.

The Millinery Opening at Mrs. VIM.
Maboeuf's Today.

At this season of the year, when
woman's thoughts turn to spring hats
and suits, the various millinery and
ladies' garment displays have pecu-;
liar interest for the fair sex. The.
millinery opening of Mrs. VIM. Mall
boeuf on Sixth street, this morning.
was a marvel of taste, beauty and ele-
gance. The large number of patrons
of this establishment on hand was
substantial evidence of their appre-
citation of the style and quality of the
offerings. The beautiful windows, the
one containing an Easter bonnet In
a chariot drawn by nine white doves,
with floral decorations of pansies, cal
lalilies, carnations and ferns, fresh
from Mrs. Malboeufs daughter, Mrs.
Nellie French in Los Angeles, Calf;
the other, Indian heads, natural flow
ers and mems apparel, were the cyno-
sure of all eyes. A reporter for T h
Optic who was attracted into the
place by the handsome attractions
cannot speak of them as he would.
Suffice it to say, however, that Mrs.
Malboeuf has on display the newest
ideas in hats, which call for white
Renaissance lace materials. The
trimmings include lovely. feathers
pompons and aigrettes. Roses are the
popular thing in flowers. Lots of
foliage is employed in the trimming
of hats and they were never more
becoming than they are this season.
The rear of Mrs. Malboeuf's store is
lined with walking hats, sailor hats
and hats Of every kind, description and
price; also, her assortment Of head
wear for little children is full and
complete.
A number of extra salesladies have
been ON duty today and their services
will be needed till the rush is over.

HOUSE.

Washington, April Payne, of New

presented resolution which was
adopted, calling on the secretary of
the treasury for information as to
whether the war revenue act created
surplus and all details concerning
the revenue under that act with esti-
mates of expenditures. Richardson,
of Tennessee, asked if it covered any
thing save internal revenue taxation
under the war revenue act. Payne
replied it did not. There was no di-
vision on the adoption of the resolu--
ton. Representative Payne, when
asked il the resolution means legisla-
ton for reduction of the revenue, re-

TROUBLES IN LABOR WORLD

Washington, April 2-The senate
convened at II O'Clock in order that
the debate on the Puerto Rican bill
might be extended. The public gal
leries were crowded. Vest directed
attention to notable case in which
the supreme court had decided that
sailor who committed murder at
Nagasaki, was properly tried in the
consular court, holding that for trial
by jury the vessel must have been
within territorial limits. Vest said
he would like for any senator to ex-
plain how the supreme court could
state emphatically that within terri
torial limits the United States con-
stitution applies without an act of
congress or treaty stipulation and yet
agree that different tariff can be i'm
posed on the people of Puerto Rico
from that imposed on the people of
Missouri.
Bate, Of Tennessee, delivered a.
speech in opposition to the Puerto
Rico bill. Cullom and Depew spoke in
favor of the bill.
