throughout the city, died yesterday af-

SMALLPOX SITUATION.
Health Authorities Consider Danger
to Be Iessened.

Superintendent Allen, of the bureau
of health, has decided that the danger
of the smallpox spreading in West
Scranton has been lessened sufficiently
to warrant the revocation of the order
closing all public halls in that part of
the city, and he so notified Director of
Public Safety Wormser yesterday.
The director accordingly issued an
order raising the quarantine placed on
such halls, with the exception of Mears
hall, which is still guarded because of
the recent presence of smallpox in the
building in which it is located AS men,
toned before, free vaccination will be
continued today in the schools which
We're opened last week in the central
city, North Scranton and South Scran-
ton.
DR.. w. A. Paine, the smallpox physi-
clan, stated yesterday to ii Tribune man
that the danger of spread of the dis
case has been greatly lessened Unless
the disease crops out among some of
the persons with whom Vinol, the CEN
trail city patient, came in contact, the
chances are that the danger will be
over, he said.

not be considered as break in con-
tinuity of service Persons who leave
the service thereby relinquish all claim
to the benefit of the pension allowed.
This pension system has been adopt
ed by the Lackawanna railroad" said
one of the officials who was active In
arranging the details of the plan, "in
the interests both of the men and the
service. The companys benefits con-
sist for most part in the added efilci-
ency of service naturally consequent
upon the employment of younger and
more active men In the stead of those
whose age has rendered their retire
ment beneficial. both to themselves and
the service. also I'm establishing more
fully the spirit OF cooperation and of
mutual interest of employer and em-
ploye, thereby contributing to unity OF
effort and uniformity of action which
is essential to the successful manage
ment and conduct of a great railway
company.
PURPOSE OF IT.
"From the standpoint of the men, It
Is primarily intended as giving assur-
ance to faithful employees that, after n
certain period of service. and when they
are attaining an age where they are not
so well adapted for the performance of
their work, they shall have provision
for their future support. Nothing is so
satisfactory to the average employe as
TO feel, especially now, that the de-
mands for superior quality of service
are constantly increasing. that after
spending his active life in the railroad
service, and by reason of age or other
disability he is unable to measure up
as fully as formerly to the requirements
of his work, he has the assurance that
his employer has made a generous and
assured provision for his future.
Employees eligible to retirement will
not receive the pension allowance as a
favor, nor as charitable act on the
part of the company. They will be in
a position to consider themselves the
recipients of a permanent annuity
earned by years of faithful efficient
and loyal service"
The board of officers selected to ad-
minister the affairs of the pension de-
partment, under the direction of the
president of the company, are General
Superintendent r. T.. Clarke, General
Auditor o. c. Post, Chief Engineer W.
X. McFarlin, Superintendent of Motive
Power and Machinery II. S. Lloyd and
Traffic Manager B. d. Caldwell At the
organization of the board, Traffic Man
ager Caldwell was elected chairman.
and General Auditor Post secretary.
The membership of this board, con-
tanning, as it does, representative men
of ability and long experience in prac-
tical railroad service. promises an ad-
ministration of the pension fund not
only to the best interests of the stock
holders, but to every employe of the
company, no matter how humble his
position, who comes within the juris-
diction Of the system.

WASHINGTON NOTES.

Kissing in the Senate is SO unusual
that when it occurred in the course Of
the Philippine debate, last Saturday, it
created sensation. Mr. Spooner of
Wisconsin was speaking and referred,
incidently, to the story that thousand
Filipinos had been put to death by
American troops in trenches which they
were compelled to dig. Mr. Lodge of
Massachusetts, said the story had been
denied by the father of the soldier who
had started it.
Mr. Carmack of Tennessee interrupt
ed to say that no doubt the soldier
would deny the story, as all soldiers in
the Philippines had been required to
do. His remark was greeted with
misses from the galleries, the demonstra-
ton of disapprobation calling out a
sharp rapping of the gavel from the
chair
The House, last week, passed the
Shattuc immigration bill. This bill is
codifcation Of all previous bills relat-
ing to the same subject. bnt at the same
time there are changes. For instance,
the head tax on aliens is increased from
81 to $780, and there is demand that
an educational test shall be applied. On
the theory that a man who can read
and write in his ow n language, can learn
to be respectable citizen of the United
States, the intelligent immigrant is ad-
mitted But If the new arrival is so
ignorant that he cannot understand his
own language he will be sent back.
There is no doubt that the immigration
laws need thorough overhauling
On Tuesday the Senate passed the bill
providing for the civil government of
the Philippines by vote of AZ to 30.
Three Republicans, Hoar, Mason and
Wellington, voted against it, and one
Democrat, McLaurin, OF South Carolina
for it.
