Warnke WasherY starts.

Wilkesbarre. Pa, Aug. 21.-The coal
operators of the Wyoming region took
a step forward yesterday. The Warnke
washery at Duryea, under a strong
guard, was kept in operation all day,
and the Maltby breaker Of the Lehigh
Valley Coal Company prepared lot
Of coal, which had already been mined,
for the market.
National Board Member John Fallon
said last night that there was no
change in the situation. He is of the
opinion that the strikers are as firm
as ever. The strike leaders here think
that j. Pierpont Morgan will consent
to a conference of some kind with
President Mitchell and that the strike
will be over by the 1st of September.
J. +. Mullahy. secretary of the sta
tionary Firemen's Association of
Pennsylvania, in an address issued
last night, says that all the striking
firemen are standing firm, and that
there has been no desertions from the
ranks. The Lehigh and Wilkesbarre
Coal Company started up a big wash
cry at Wanamie today. The pumps
at the Stanton mine have been re-
paired after a long delay, and the
work OF pumping out the water be-
gan today. The mine is flooded, and
it will take q long time to get it into
shape for the mining of coal.

OYSTERS 10 Be PLENTIFUL
Season Promises TO be Successful One for
Planters and Shippers

The oyster catching season begins
September /. and the indications are
that the coming fall and winter will
be one Of the most prosperous in many
years for the oyster planters and ship
pers. Much activity is now shown
and the shippers are getting every
thing in readiness for the first day of
September
In the spring and early summer
thousands and thousands o. plants
were distributed over the hundreds
and hundreds of leased acres in the
Maurice river and Delaware bay. Re
cent investigation made upon these
beds indicates phenomenal growth. AL
most all of the plants have lived and
thrived and the catch of spat has been
remarkable Oysters recently taken in
preliminary hauls show splendid
growth. and oysters gathered from the
same beds ten days later show still
further development.
There was some fear recently that
drum fish would disturb the oysters,
as they did about TuckertOn during
early July. Indeed, there was some
evidence of the ravages of the fish in
oNAuN itdAAo vi lhduAlNO AlNbi OONIi uul
fortunately there was no extended
damage.
With the first OF September many
Of the more than 400 boats licensed by
the New Jersey State Commission will
be in active service. and thousands OF
bushels of oysters will be shipped from
| Bivalve and Maurice river. The
wharves of the latter will be especial
ly busy, for most of the oysters are
now going that way.

WARNKE WANHBRY
STARTS OPERATIONS
HreaCherOuS ASSailant Of
Deputy Guard Known
SIaShed Him Under PretenSC Of MAX
ing-up' striking FirCmCn
Remain Firm

Wilkosbarre, Pa. Aug. Il. - James
Carey, Of Pittsburg, a guard at shaft
No. G, of the Nanticoke colliery Of the
Susquehanna Coal Company. was stab
bed and seriously wounded by striker
yesterday morning. Five strikers APP
preached the open gates of the stock
ade surrounding the colliery, where
Captain Jones and several OF his depu-
ties were on duty. The strikers called
the guards names and became so abu
sive that finally one of them was
knocked down by deputy. The stril1-
ers ran away, but soon returned. When
halted by Casey, their leader said:
I'VE have come back to ask what's
the use Of fighting all the time. Let's
be friends. Here's my hand on it,"
Casey good-naturedly extended his
hand, whereupon the intruder seized it,
and, whirling around, stabbed him in
the body with a knife that had been
concealed in the left sleeve Of his coat.
Casey grasped for the weapon, and the
assailant then twisted it in the guards
right hand, almost severing his fingers.
The arteries of his wrist were also cut
open.
Another member of the party tried
to join in the assault, but the quin-
tette fled when Captain Jones came to
the guards relief. Jones says he knows
the men who did the stabbing, and
early arrests are expected.
This is the second serious affray at
Nanticoke, and following the reward Of
$1,000 offered by President Baer for the
capture Of the men who Tuesday at
tempted a double murder at Edgerton,
there is much indignation.

LAWYERS oeteated Doctors

Lawyers and doctors played a game Of
baseball at South Side Park yesterday
The lawyers cleaned a greater part of
the dust off the diamond, so eager were
they in their attempt to capture the
ball, and they were rewarded by vic
tory. They were determined to win,
no matter how, and they did. Some
one in the grand stand said he had
paid odmlssiOn to see the lawyers play
ball. and he wanted to know where
they were. He was enlightened by a
kindly neighbor, who said there were
only one or two lawyers present, a few
members Of the bar. and several law
students. He added that the doctors
were doctors.
They were not enough for the law
yers past, present and embryo how
ever who scored 10 runs to their op-
ponents Z. The game was carried on
in a rather listless manner, and no
serious threats were made, as had
been expected. Bats were allowed only
when the batter was in his box and
gloves could be used only to catch the
ball. The features Of the game were
the pitching of Rice and the catching
of Cam. Malloy and Janvier played a
good game in the field, and threw in
some acrchatic stunts free of charge.
The teams were lined up as follows:
Lawyers-Pierce Cam, catcher; Her.
bert Rice, pitcher; Thomas f. Bayard,
first base; John Brady, second base;
David ]. Reinhardt shortstop; John
Huxley. third base; John +. Malloy,

There is no other feature of the

WILMINGTON WON IN THE TWELFTH;
WILMINGTON A. A. DOWNS HARRISBURG

Wilmington A. A. and Harrisburg
yesterday played the best game that
has been seen on a Harrisburg diamond
for a long time. The contest was ex-
ceedingly fast from start to finish, and
brimful of exciting plays. The Harris
burg team had the Indian pitcher, Al
bert, in the box and the A AS allow
ed Blough to do the hOnOrs for them
The honors between the two men were
evenly divided, and it was the timly
batting of tn visitors which won the
game. For five innings neither side
scored, but in the sixth Wilmington
sent the first and last man across the
plate.

generally believed that the Regulars
will endorse the ticket as IL is. Some
think they will endorse layton and
White and put up candidates of their
own for the other places, while others
think they will not even endorse the
Regulars as nominated, but will Sc
lect an entirely new ticket.
The Regulars claim that if toy are
entitled to any representation On the
county ticket they are certainly en-
titled TO name that representation.

ADVISES Wilkesbarre Man TO Pray
That Right May Triumph.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, Aug 21. - w. f.
Clark, a photographer of this city, re-
Gently addressed a letter TO President
Baer. Of the Philadelphia and Reading
Railroad Company, appealing to him as
q Christian to settle the miners strike.
The writer said that If Christ was taken
more into our business affairs there
would be less trouble in the world, and
that if Mr.. Baer granted the strikers
a slight concession they would gladly
return to work and the president of the
Philadelphia and Reading Railroad
Company would have the blessing Of
God and the respect of the nation.
President Baer replied as follows:
Il see you are evidently biased in your
religious views in favor of the right
of the workingman to control a busi-
ness in which he has no other interest
than to secure fair wages for the work
he does. l beg of you not to be dis
couraged The rights and interests Of
the laboring man will be protected and
cared for. not by the labor agitators,
but by the Christian men to whom God
I'm His infinite wisdom has given the
control OF the property interests OF the
country. Pray earnestly that the right
may triumph, always remembering
that the Lord God omnipotent still
reigns, and that His reign is one of
law and order, and not of violence and
crime"

Wilmington had things its own way
in the game with the Cuban X-Giants
yesterday until the ninth inning, when
Myers shut off the steam and allowed
the dusky lads to score four runs. This
tie dthe score, and it required three more
innings &c unite it. Manager Wiegand' 3
colts did that part by good, hard hit
ting. The game was exciting after the
ninth inuing, and it was hard to pick
the winner. Green, the crack pitcher
of the visitors, was an easy proposition
to the locals, and they put the ball to
MI corners of the lot and over uhe
fence also.
Myers was in the box for nine in
nings, and then Leonard took his
place. The feature of the game was the
throwing OF Tierney, who shut off 4
run at the plate and also put ont a
man on fist base.
Today Camden will play at Front

"On the contrary, it never has amount

placed it in very poor soil, for 1t has
grown but little larger than when L
planted it, and is always split at the

Perhaps something has been eating

A few days afterward the Frog said
to the Monkey, my bananas are now

LET us go and gather 1t without an

you will not get the least benefit from
it, Besides, as you cannot climb the
tree, you will need by aid to help you
get the fruit"
So they set off, and, when they had
arrived at the Frogs house, the Mon
key climbed the tree and began to pick
