WARN
THE COAL BUYERS

Pittsburgh. Aug. 15:-In its lead
ing editorial the trade Coal Bulletin,
the official organ of the coal operat-
ors, deplores the fact that the con-
sumers of coal have not proflted by
their experiences of last year, when
they were caught mapping with in
sufficient supplies of coal on hand,
and sounds a warning that it is prob
able that conditions will be worse
this year unless immediate action
is taken.
The editorial says the price of coal
is lower than it is likely to be again
in a long time, and that while the
present conditions are good the OPP
portunity cannot last a long while.
Consumers as usual, it is pointed out,
are buying only for present needs.
Somebody is going to suffer before
the winter is over and it will not
be the producers.

Office Blown 0pen-CraCksmen
Hurried to Trenton.

The safe in the post office at Prince
ton Junction was blown open by
cracksmen early yesterday morning
and a lot of stamps and other booty
taken. The robbers used a heavy

same gang which attempted to blow
up the safe at Lawrenceville last
week and which also robbed the post

at Chrome.

preachers meeting protesting TO the

PENNSYLVANIA TO PAY
employees IN CASH.

! The Inconvenience caused both to
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
and its employees through the system
of paying wages by check has resulted
in the company deciding to abandon
the plan, after thirty-6ve years of
operation.
That system was adopted for the
purpose of having the division super
intendents distribute the checks in
person, and thus become personally
acquainted with the men. But the
number of employees has become so
great that it is now impossible to
carry it out. They now number 120,-
900.
1t was also found that the payment
by check caused the men to absent
themselves from their work for a long
time, and, besides, in many instances,
it was very inconvenient to get the
checks cashed.
There was another reason why
there is a desire to have the employees
paid in cash. 1t is that many OF he
men had their checks cashed in places
that are not prescribed as a deposito-
ny of the railroad. And, besides. it
is understood that in a number OF
cases the men were compelled to pay
from twenty-five cents up for having
thair ahoakc aashaI
To make this change will mean a
revolution in the system of handling
the monthly payrolls. There will be
a number of ~paymasters appointed.
They will have certain times TO pay
off, and cars will be provided Tor theit
use.
For years this was the method pur-
sued, and 1t is understood that it is
the best system. However, before
there is,any permanent change made
the paying by cash is to be given u
fair trial. 1t was said Saturday that
in about two months the clerks in the
general Office will receive their mon
thly wages in ready money instead Of
by check.

WOMAN TURNING BLACK
Trenton Doctors Have a Rare Case
in That Of Mrs. Martha Lewis.

TRENTON, Aug. 15:--Mrs. Mar
tina Lewis, whose home is in Mercer
county, is in st. Francis Hospital
here, suffering from a peculiar all
ment, which, according to the med
ical staff of the institution, is likely
to prove fatal. The patient has been
unconscious since last night, and hel
skin has changed to the copper hue
of an Indian.
Mrs. Lewis became i'll a week ago,
but her condition was not thought
to be serious until her skin began to
get darker. She was taken to the
hospital Sunday afternoon, and soon
after lost consciousness. Although
unconscious, she writhes with pain
when her skin is touched.
According to a local physician, the
woman is probably suffering from
Hodgskin's disease, a rare and fatal
ailment, in which the glands of the
body become enlarged and the skin
frequently turns black.
The cause of Hodgskin's disease
has never been determined upon, al
though many theories as to it's orig
in have been advanced.

The steamboat Mary Patten, of
the Patten line running between Man
haitian and Long Branch, was towed
