about the city have reported that
Charles Sweeny has been distributing

the Fifth representative is perhaps the
NEST doubtful. This includes all the
second ward of the city. The repub-
lican nominees whose election Mr..
Sweeny desires are George r. Crane
and ~ E. Linsley. The democratic
nominees are Sol Mayer and Council
man John Gray. The two democrats
are making hard fight and are con-
sidered popular.

politician and manipulation of lower

MARK CRAVE OF CHIEF JOSEPH.
Monument Is Pledged by the State
Historical Society.

The body of Chief Joseph is not to
be taken back to the WallOwa valley
to rest beside that of his father: but
the grave of the great American war
riQr is not to be left unmarked and
unknown. The Washington University
State Historical society has taken up
the task of providing a suitable stone
for the old chiefs grave.
The following message was sent from
Nespelim by Henry NJ. Steele to Ed
mond S Meany, secretary of the his
torcal society:
Council of JOseph's relatives and
friends decide Josephs remains to rest
here permanently Who defrays ex-
pense of monument if erected? They
await your reply by wire. Letter fol-
lows"
Professor Meany promptly replied
that the Washington University State
Historical society would defray the ex-
ptiISe VI d over Tie CIllSl >
grave at Nespelim. Further CORE
spondence will be necessary to arrange
the details, but, it is argued, there
will surely be found enough friends to
supply the society with the funds nee
over the grave of Chief Joseph.

COAL COMBINE
is EXPLAINED.
Local Dealers Show Their Bills
and Explain that They are
Being Reasonable.

| Several coal dealers called at the
Evening News office this morning and
brought with them number OF their
bills showing the exact cost of coal at
the mines, the cost of putting it on
the dump and the freight. Tbe.dealers
do not want to be understood as
robbing the people and point out that
they are up against a force of oircum-
stances which cannot be avoided,
such as dealing with u coal combine.
/ The dealers stated that there were
several kinds Of coal; that the best
was the Lehigh coal; that was the
only kind handled here and that was
the kind the school specifications call
for.
According to thee bills shown, the
price of coal for June was SO 45 per
ton at the mine; it cost 10 cents to
get it on the dump and the freight is
81 SO. This made total of $5. 10 for
coal in June. The winter prices,
however. are as follows: So. 10 at
the mines; 10 cents putting 1t on the
dump and $l.5 for freight, making a
total of $5. 40
1t was shown that Scranton coal,
which is an inferior grade, can be
bought for 50 30 per ton at the mines,
but the school bids called for the best
Lehigh and therefore Scranton or any
other cheap grade was barred.
Aftor the dealers have paid So. 40
per ton for the coal, it is pointed out,
they still have the additional expense
of screening and carting it SO that
the margin is made less yet.
AS for the combine, it was ex-
planned in this way: One dealer met
another dealer on tho street. Ono
asked the other if he was going to bid
on the sctcol coal The reply was
yes. =,
What are you going to bid" was
the next question.
''Six and a quarter, was the ans
wer.
"Woll, I won't cut your price,"
said the first dealer. sThat's fair
figure and I'll make mine tile same. 4
AS far as is known thai is all there
is to the so.called &c ombine. rs TO
how all the others came to put in the
same figure, tho dsalers say they sup
p sed it got noised about that $6. %
was to bo the price and they all made
theirs at that figure. The coal mer.
chants say all they want is an honest
living and reasonable profit. They
do not think, they say, that they
ought to be condemned because an
other man chooses to furnish coal at
cost for the sake of advertisement.

BIG ORDER FOR
TERRA GOTTA.
Atlantic Plant at TOttenviIIe to
Supply the Material for Wash
ingtOn Union Station.

Work at the Atlantic Terra Gotta
Works, Tottenville, is now much
better than it was several weeks ago.
Several gratifying orders have sbeen
received recently and there IS on pros
pect of an immediate cessation in the
present rush. The company's largest
contract is for the work being done
on the new Union station at Washing
ton, ID. O., for the Pennsylvania rail-
road. 1t will be one of the representa-
tive railroad stations of the country,
and will cost nearly $1,000, 900. 1t
will be finished inside and out with
white glazed ornamental terra Gotta.
1t is credit to the A tlantic company
and TO Tottenville that they are do
ing such large part of the terra
Gotta work.
The lowering OF the cost of pro-
duction at the Atlantic plant has been
facilitated by the installation of q
new systom for utilizing waste. The
heat tn erefrom will he used to dry
the pressed term Gotta, and also to
heat the building in cold weather.
There will soon be installed q new
design powerful turbine engine in the
main room, and now grit mills are
also being put in. The company now
ranks fifth in size of the kind in the
