SHIPMENTS

NOT BEGUN
Providence Dealers Have No
Information as to Time When
Cargoes viii Be Started East

The local coal situation is not changed
I'm the least There has been no coal yet
shipped east and there has been no def
mite information received as 10 the time
when such shipments will be begun. The
dealers are doing all that Is possible 10
give To their customers some assurance
for the future but they have no informa-
tion as 10 probable shipments, and the
chartered barges are awaiting cargoes
and the demurrage Is piling up all of the
time.
BY n recent deal John r. White Son
secured a cargo OF what Is known as
Scotch house coal. which reached New
York yesterday. and which cargo WILL in
part, at least, be barges to this city. The
firm has a cargo OF Welch coal on the
ocean, but the time OF arrival OF the
steamer that is bringing that cargo Is de-
cidedly uncertain
IL is probable that the first cargo OF
the scotch coal will be received here early
the coming week, and II is probable the
price will be between ss and 50 ton. The

Tons Of English Fuel,

There was mild sensation along the
water front this afternoon when the big
British steamship Himeira from Man
chester. Eng, reached Providence with
cargo Of 5000 tons OF English coal con
signed To the saylesville bleacheries The
cargo was shipped about two weeks since
and the steamer has been making rather
slow progress across the Atlantic
While this may not be the largest cargo
10 reach Providence II IL certainly the
largest cargo OF foreign coal to be re-
ceived. and though the coming OF the
steamer was unheralded. there Is not
much doubt the vessel will be the at
traction for people who seldom have an
interest In things maritime.
The coal will not be discharged untii
Monday. and IL Is possible that some OF
u must be hghtered IL will be loaded
on cdrs and taken TO the works at Sayles-
Vile. The owner OF tho bleacheries
Frank A. Sayles. did not propose To have
TO walt for co2l and so he chartered ~>e
steamship, secured the coal and sent her
here. The coal is good grade Of English
coal and particularly adapted for steam
purposes.

ALLEGED SWINDLER ARRESTED.
Dr. {. S. Pettyjohn Complains of
Losses al Hands of BENJAMIN
Webster

Benjamin Webster, wearer of fash.
lonable clothing and having a busting
air, was arrested yesterday at the in
stance of DR.. E. S. Pettyjohn, who
charges him with having operated a con
fidence game whereby the doctor lost
several hundred dollars.
DR.. Pettyjohn has an office in the
Stewart Building, and his acquaintance
with Webster began several months
ago. when the latter called upon him to
explain scheme he had, with which
backed by little money, he said he
could make large winnings from pool.
rooms IN the city. Webster claimed TO
be telegraph operator and said that he
was in charge of the racing wires in the
Western Union Building. BY means
OF his position he was able, he said, to
get inside tips on IA ing matters which
would make him sure winner on any
wagers he might place. Upon these
representations DR.. Pettyjohn lent him
various amounts at different times.
Webster subsequently reported that
on account of some miscalculation he
had been unsuccessful in his investments.
and when no more money was forth.
coming disappeared. Last Monday,
however, Webster called up the doctor
over the telephone and asserted that he
now had scheme for tapping the wires
of the telegraph company to secure the
information he needed, and asked the
physician to again become his financial
hacker.
Not wishing to have any thing to do
with this sort of work, DR.. Pettyjohn
told him to call at his office. The ply.
stefan next telephoned the police. Web.
'ter was duly arrested and a complaint
lodged against him with Justice Hail.

Obituary.

The little company OF sympathetic
friends who assembled at the Presbyte
Ian church on Friday last at the funeral
OF Mrs. Morrell. testified by their pres.
ence, their appreciation OF her character.
IL was some years since she had left
Alma TO reside in st. Louis, but those who
had known her in former days had not
forgotten her. Though passing her life
amid humble surroundings, she had the
respect and confidence of all who knew
her. She was the mother OF ten children
OF whom eight are still living. She was
born in Kent Co., ceme early TO this
region, was married first to Mr. Thornton.
and afterwards to Mr.. Morrell. Her
two eldest sons, whose names are
Thornton, live in the northern portion
Of Michigan. The devotion OF these two
boys to their mother. and the sacrifices
made on her account is beautiful 10
think Of. She will be long remembered
a hard working, patient, kindly
woman, who trusted in God, and reoog.

life.

ROUND TRIPS BARRED.
Ten Per Cent. Reduction on Round
Trip Tickets Abolished Annual
Passes Taken Away.

Under the agreement recently entered
into by the roads comprising the Trunk
lines association, the local round trip
tickets were abolished commencing
January l, and the exchange passes of
every description disappeared.
For years it has been the custom of
railways all over the country to sell
round-trip tickets at reduction of 10
per cent. from the straight one.way
rate. Adverse legislation and other
things that have cut down the passenger
earnings Of the roads greatly during the
past two years are responsible in this
state for the action, in which the local
round trip ticket is abolished. This
action, however, does not cover excur.
sion tickets sold over other lines. In ad.
dition, every irst.class ticket sold on
local roads in the future will be limited
and the limit is placed at the day follow
ing the sale.
Under the decision to do away with
the exchange passes, even the highest
officials of one railway will have TO pay
for the use of the rails of another COM
pany and the annual passes 70 states
