WORK WILL SOON
RESUME AT MILLS
Orders Recently Received by the
Lackawanna Iron and Steel Com
pany Will Set the Wheels in
Motion.

AS result of several large contracts
for steel rails recently made by the
Pennsylvania, Baltimore and Ohio
Chesapeake and Ohio and Norfolk and
Western Railroad companies work will
soon be resumed at the mills OF the
Lackawanna Iron and Steel company
which have been for some time idle
The company is one of several con-
Germs among which these contracts
We're divided, and, while the exact
number Of tons of rails which will be
allotted the local company Is not as
yet known, still it will be very large
one. General Manager Henry Web
rum, in speaking to a Tribune man
yesterday about the order, said:
while aware that these railroad
companies have made contracts with
the Lackawanna Iron and Steel com.
pany, still 1 do not know the extent
of the order, as 1 have not yet re-
ceived any specific orders or notifca.
tions regarding the deal. and, in fact
know nothing definite about it.
Neither can I state the exact date
when the mills will be re-opened, but
l should judge that work will probably
be started within two or three weeks
The contracts which were made by
the railroad companies were as fol-
lows: The Pennsylvania railroad, $780,.
900 tons, at S26 per ton; the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad, 10000 tons; the
Chesapeake and Ohio, $4,000 tons. and
the Norfolk and Western railroad. 49,.
600 tons. The steel companies among
which the contracts are divided are
the Lackawanna Steel company. Of
Scranton; the Federal Steel company
of Chicago; the Carnegie company
the Pennsylvania Steel company, thu
National Steel company and the Cam.
bria Steel company. of Johnstown.
Manager Wehrum did not seem par.
ticularly impressed by the magnitude
of these orders when divided amonl
the companies, and in speaking of the
ease with which the company caI
handle the contract said: why, the
South works alone can turn out 100000
tons in year."
The orders are given, moreover, pei
specification, and will not be under
taken in mass, but separate direc
tions and separate work must be done
as each consignment comes in, owing
to the various different technicalitie!
in the construction Of them.
In speaking about the work at pres
ent going on at Buffalo. where the 81
gantic new plant is being built. Mana
ger Wehrum said: Work Is progress
ing very satisfactorily. The plant whel
completed will be one of enormous
size, great deal larger. of course
than the works here at Scranton. Worl
has been going on during nearly thu
; last three months, and. therefore
while there are no great visible evi
dcnces as yet of what has been done
still things are beginning to now tak'
some shane.
1.-The office building, the construction
of which is in charge of Conrad
Schroeder, of this city, is being rapid!

County Attorney Declines.

Wednesday afternoon G Il. Gard,
the present county attorney, gave 1t
out to a few friends that he would not
be candidate for denomination to
the office. He has served two years
and by the customary courtesy would
have had the nomination again. 1t
had been supposed all along that he
would run and his withdrawal leaves
the Office without a candidate as yet.
Mr.. Gard stated to a REGISTER re-
porter that he wanted to announce
HE intention earlier in the year, hav-
ing made a New Years resolution to
that effect, tut was dissuaded by his
friends. The only criticism which
has ever been passed upon his sd-
mnistration has been a dual one, the
ProhIbitioni-ts charging that he did
not prosecute the joint keepers to the
limit that be should, and the Joint
Keepers charging that he made their
life unbearaole. The ioinusts assert
that not since the days Of the great
drouth has the absence of wetness
been 90 painful.
The announcement was surprise
even to his intimate friends, but he
positively declined to reconsider il
when urged to do so.

Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1900-10-25
for Murdered Italians.

The President will recommend to Con-
gress the payment of an indemnity to the
families of the four Italians who were
the victims of a mob at Tallaluh, La,
about two years ago. A report from a
special agent of the Department. of JUS
tice clearly established the fact that the
men were killed by the mob and that none
of the perpetrators of the crime was ever
punished by the State authorities, not
withstanding the representations Of the
national government. The Governor of
Louisiana caused an investigation to be
made, and there were some proceedings
before a grand jury. but the result was
that the national government found itself
bound TO make some sort of reparation in
answer to the Italian governments rep
resentation. and they will take the form
of an Indemnity for each Of the persons
Killed who We're Italian citizens at the
time of their death.
