Two New Washeries'

Work was begun yesterday by force
of men in the employ of contractors
Lamorcaux & Smith, of Forty Fort, on
the erection of a large waShery for the
New York. Ontario and Western Rail-
road company at Archibald, at the culn
pile of the Raymond coliery. 1t is the
second to be built by this firm for the
Ontario and Western, as another wash
cry at ThrOop is now we'll under way
and will bc completed before Septem-
ber /.
The latter'S WaShery is located near
the Pancoast collicry. Both structures
are exceedingly large ones and will be,
in fact. when completed, among the
largest washcries in this portion of the
anthracite district. Each will have a
capacity of about 800 tons day. and
employ about thirty-tive hands. They
are the same size. and might almost be
called twin washerics.
The coal department of the ontario.
since it has bought out the various
small companies whose collierics ii now
operates. has met with a brisk demand
for washery coal. and il is this whio h
has resulted in the building Of the two
washcries, making a total of four oper-
ated in this district. the others being at
the Mt. Pleasant ColliCry and in the
Keyscr valley. The Thruop washery
was started about six weeks ago. The
Raymond washory is expected to be
finished and ready for operations by
October II.
Both Collieros at which they are
located are paying ones, the Pancoast
giving an average yield of about twelve
hundred tons "A day. and the Raymond $
daily output being estimated at from
fifteen to eighteen hundred tons, on a
ten-hOur system.

This and That.
A New Plan of Wage Paving.

The Pennsylvania steel company has
adopted Il hrW system of laying its
seven thousand or more employees at
Stcelton. Under the new plan adopted
the employees are divided into ten
groups. each consisting of as nearly
tho same number Of men as may be
possible, one group Is paid each day,
Saturdays excepted. until the entire ten
get their wages. which amount in the
aggregate to $3.50 900 every two weeks.
one novel business feature employed
by the Southern Pacific railroad com
pany Is to have its patrons met at
points of destination by experienced
and courteous passenger agents, who
supply information upon request and
do what they can TO promote the
patrons comfort. The company has
five offices in Europe especially fitted
up for the convenience of travellers
and several in San Francisco, New
Orleans and New York.
The trouble over the right of COM
mittees from the United Mine Work
ers' union to inspect the working
| cards of the men before the latter en-
ter the mine is spreading. Yesterday
| at the Maltby Coliery of the Lehigh
Valley Coal company, at Maltby, near
| ly 700 men refused to enter the mine.
A committee had been appointed by
the union to inspect the cards yester-
day morning, and the fifteen men
composing that committee were At the
works yesterday morning to carry out
the instructions of their union. When
they attempted to do so, they were
discharged by the company officials. A
strike followed.
Extensive repairs are being made at
the Dodge colliery. The breaker is
being remodelli and new screens, ele-
vators, engines and an electric motor
are being Put in place.
\ committee from the Erie mines at
Mayfield yesterday waited upon Cen
eral Manager May. Dockago, yardage
| and the right to have working cards
taken up at the mouth of the shaft
were the matters they wanted adjusted

Car Builders Strike.

President Albert r. Fish, Of Buffalo,
head of the Car Builders National
union. did not arrive in this city yes
terday, although expected by the local
strikers. The telegram he sent Thurs
day positively stated that President
Fish would be here yesterday and his
non-appearance caused a good deal of
disappointment about strike headquar-
ters.
He may, however, come on today and
in case he does will he present at the
meeting of the car builders which is to
he held tonight. 1t Is likely that an
other vote will be taken upon the mat
ter of returning to work A large num-
her of the men have returned to the
shops during the week. but those still
out claim that by far the greater per-
centage of men have not returned to
work nor will they do so until conces-
sions have been granted them.

Big Order for Box Cars.

Master Car Builder l.. T. Garfield. of
the Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern Railroad company, returned early
yesterday morning from New York.
where he spent the greater part of the
week on company business. He left
again last night to join General Super
intendenr \. T.. Clarke at the metropolis
and discuss with him some matters con-
nected with his department.
The work which took Mr. Garfield to
New York during this week was the
awarding of contracts for a big order
of box cars which the Lackawanna is
putting on the road. 1t is one of the
periodical purchases of new rolling
stock TO replace old and worn out cars,
and two companies are after it. the
American Car and Foundry company
negotiating for the job for its Berwick
plant, and the Erie Car company also
bidding for the contract, which is for
five hundred cars. 1t has always been
the Lackawanna's practice to give Ia
outside parties any order of dimensions
of this size, and to only fill limited or
ders at the local shops.
The deal has not yet been closed, nor
will it be until next week Master
Builder Garfield says the contract will
be signed Wednesday morning, after
which he will return here.

The firm Of :. q. Barker d Son have
purchased Of the Delaware, LaCkawan-
ma and Western an acre of ground on
the Diamond flats, and have let the
contract to Washburn, Williams q co.
for the erection of a foundry building
T2x1O0 feet. 1t is the intention of this
firm TO erect on the same plot next
year large machine shop and move
their whole business from Seventh
street 10 the same site with the foun-
dry, when they expect to have one or
the most modern plants, all run by elcc-
tricity and equipped with the latest
improved machinery.
This firm is one Of the oldest, II not
the oldest, in the city; the founder the
late Samuel g. Barker, established the
business in 1Si7, and they have been
continuously engaged in the manufac-
ture Of scales from that date. For the
past twelve years they have added
other lines to their business, such as the
manufacture of mine pumps, railroad
frogs and switches and general ma
chinery, and the business has increased
far beyond their present facilities.

A HIGHLAND DRESS PARADE.
Come One, Come All, and See This
New Novelty Monday Night.

At o'clock on Monday evening the
members of the Caledonian club and
the band of THE Kites," of Toronto,
who will play in the New Armory on
Monday afternoon and evening will
give d fine parade in full Highland
costume. The band has been enthus-
iastically received in over 200 of the
largest American cities, and it is
hoped that our citizens will turn out
and give them as rousing reception
as they received elsewhere. They
will march to the Armory, where a
grand promenade concert will be held.
This is only possible on account of the
largene5s and coolness of the build
ing, where 1t is possible to seat 10000
people without discomfort.
Be sure and go and hear the music,
the vocal choir and see the Highland
fling, the sword dance and the Scotch
reel danced by artists of world wide
reputation.

a number OF changes in the schedule.
The date of issue has not yet been
fixed, but will probably be Aug. IL.
The company is increasing the Pan
American traffic and II IL this which
necessitates the new table.
Two new trains will be put on the
road, one running to and the other
from Buffalo. Both are through
trains. During the latter part OF
July. the Pan-Amcrican traffic picked
up decidedly and the company now
expects the real rush. The regular
timetable for the Scranton division
was issued only July II. Yesterday a
number of changes went into effect on

over the main line of the Seaboard,
some 81 miles, we again enter the tur-
pentine forests, tall and straight as
ever and also the mossy scrub oaks.
Here we see resin trees thick with
gum. and the white resin flower. We
pass through long fields of black muck,
which is itself fertilizer; then a re-
gion of "low hammock and white
sandy soil. At Coleman station were
carloads of new cabbage for the
Northern market, At Withlacoochee
were large sawmills, Here we see the
razor back" hog, raised in this par
ticular section of the state. And the
lakes we passed were numerous, many
large and handsome and needing only
the finishing touches of man to be-
come popular resorts.
Lakes Panasoffkee, Wi 3hlacoochee,
Lacoochee Gndian names), were fine
natural bodies, worthy of especial
mention.
Arriving at Plant city we enter
upon the territory of the Plant sys-
TEN, and in 23 miles we reach Tampa
the great commercial city and the
uniting point of the trans-continental
trade with South America, and also
the Southern terminus of the Sea
board Air Line railway. 4 descrip-
tion of the Plant system of railroads
and steamship lines, together with its
chain of eight palatial hotels, will APP
pear next week.
