Rumor About the "Pennsy. -

There is well defined rumor in cir
culation, says the Bloomsbury Daily
10 the effect that negotiations are
pending for the purchase of the
bloomsbury and sullivan and the Cen
tral Pennsylvania and Western rail-
Grads by the "Pennsy." overtures look
ing to the absorption of these two
INES 1t is rumored, having recently
been made. 1t is further asserted that
IN the event of this consummation be-
ing brought about the latter road will
use the tow path of the abandoned
pennsylvania canal for the extension
OF their line to Berwick and Nesco-
peck, thus becoming II more important
factor in the freight carrying business
and coming largely into competition
with Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern, which for many years has practic-
ally enjoyed Il monopoly of the hauling
and passenger traffic between here and
New York. .-
This route, if adopted, would enable
the, "Pennsy' to have an eastern out
let and would make it possible for
them to connect with the main line
at Newark or Jersey City, thereby Civ
ing them a decided advantage over
that which they now possess. The
project is entirely feasible and it may
be that the time is not far distant when
this will be done.

The Wilkes Barre Times of last night
had the following:
Contrary to expectations, the trouble
existing between the employees of the
Nottingham Colliery at Plymouth and
the officials has not been settled, neither
side being willing to agree to the de-
mandS of the other. From present in
dicationS it appears that unless the diff
ferences are adjusted within Il few days
every employe in eighteen collieries of
the Lehigh and WilkcS-Balre Coal COM
pany will be called out in which event
several thousand men and boys will be
thrown into idleness.
THE matter has been reported to
headquarters and it was stated in Ply
mouth this afternoon that the members
of the national executive board, as well
MS John Mitchell, president, are now on
their way from Indianapolis to this city,
the object of their visit being to make
a further effort to adjust the existing
differences before the men in the col
herles referred to are ordered out. The
employees hope that the executive board
VIII be successful in arranging matters
satisfactorily.
Three thousand men are employed
by the Lehgh and Wilkes Barre COM
pany in Plymouth alone"

This and That.

The old Florence breaker in Smith
vile, now belonging to the Lehgh VAL
ley Coal company, is being torn down.
A modern structure, which will prepare
coal for market from three different
collieries in that vicinity, will be
erected.
A large number of bricklayers from
Allentown and Bethlehem arrived at ST.
Johns yesterday to begin work laying
the brick for the new power house of
the Wilkes Barre and Hazeton electric
railway. The work will be rushed
Wilkes Barre Times
Plans are being prepared by Julian
Kennedy, of Pittsburg, Pa, for a new
furnace for the Rochester & Pittsburg
Coal company, near Dubois, Pa. 1t will
have an S0-foot stack, 10 feet at the
base, and will run on foundry iron,
The project is promoted by the Buffalo
Rochester a. Pittsburg railroad to Sc
cure n feeder.
1t is expected that the annual report
of the Delaware. Lackawama and
Western railroad in pamphlet form will
he issued next week In this report
President Truesdale shows that during
the past year the company has spent
an average of $250,OOO month for bet
terments out of current earnings. The
company's OUTPUT of coal increased
from 6,Ol3,S49 tons in 1900 to 1881, 1886
tons in 1901 The volume of passenger
traffic on the Lackawanna last year is
reported to have exceeded all previous
years.-New York Sun.
The Baldwin Locomotive Works. of
philadelphia, Pa, report that every
department is operated to full capacity.
Inquiries continue brisk, and a large
amount of work has been booked. The
1901 output was 1875 locomotives of
various types, a gain in actual num-
ber over 1900, and a further gain from
the fact that the average weight per
locomotive was fully 10 per cent, great
er. Among recent orders may be mem
toned so engines of various types for
the Southern Pacific Railway company,
and 10 compressed air locomotives from
the Consolidated, Coal company of
West Virginia. Shipments are going
forward regularly; one engine a day
is being delivered to the Pennsylvania
Railroad company. The Baldwin COM
pany now employs over II 900 workmen
in its Philadelphia plant.

abroad, our own mills being unable
to give deliveries as soon as wanted.
Some more sales of German billets are
reported to mills which . have been
unable to get steel at home.
A question has arisen as to the ma
ture of some of the buying for the
second half of 1902. Some people are
inclined to think that at least part Of
it is speculative, and that such trans
actions may cause some trouble later.
If this is so-and it is given only as
rumor-the operators seem to have
been quite successful in taking up fur
naces and mill capacity. y.-IIngineering
