Officials. tion at Mooslc Chicago, Oct. 5.—Switchmen all along the Grand Trunk system are awaiting orders this morning to go on strike. The trouble, which has been smoldering several days In the Elsdon yards, assumed more extensive proportions following conferences with the railroad officials. Chief Croker came near being seriously Injured while going to the fire in his automobile. The machine struck an obstruction and overturned. Fortunately, the automobile was golnri at a high rate of speed, and the chelf was thrown out far ahead of the machine. He was badly bruised, but continued on his way to the fire in a Lake. A climax was reached today in the week's celebration of the State Firemen's association, in Scranton. Each, year a parade of firemen is held in connection with the State convention. This parade took place today and It was one of the largest and most successful In the history of the State association. The local committee of arrangements had been especially energetic and had made very complete arrangements, also offering many inducements for fire companies from various parts of the state to attend the parade. Although the West Pittston Hose company was the only organization from this Immediate vicinity to participate in the parade, nearly 150 companies from various parts of the state were on hand, and many of theni were accompanied by hands of music. Considerable fire apparatus was also In line. The parade started at 10 o'clock and was disbanded about noon, after having traversed the business streets of the city. An innumerable host of visitors were attracted to the city by the parade. Altogether it was the greatest day in the history of the city. The streets through through which the parade passed were jammed with people. Ropes had been Stretched along the avenues, but they were valueless so far as restraining the crowd was concerned. The police were utterly unable to keep the crowds Confined to the sidewalks. They surged into the streets and left barely enough space for the firemen on parade to pass through. There was some talk last .night that there would he trouble with the musical organizations. over the fact that half a dozen bands scheduled to appear in line were non-union organizations, but nothing serious developed. All of the musical organizations were in the parade and there was nothing In the way of an open clash between them. This afternoon, the visiting firemen are being entertained at Moosic Lake, where a programme of contests will be run off. "That Is all 1 can say today. Yes, I believe I have discovered a cure for tuberculosis. All 1 ask Is that people will have patience until August next. I have need of this delay before making my method known, but from today all sufferers can take hope." When asked if he ever asked Judge Andrew Hamilton for an accounting for money given to hlin he said that he never did. .ludge Hamilton, he said, never told him that he used any of the money for legislative purposes. FORMER SENATOR FRANK J. CANNON. Mrs. Frederick Schoflf, president of tlie National Congress of Mothers, declares that Frank J.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL The international tuberculosis congress discussed the varied forms and chemical aspects of consumption, it was asserted that a specific curative medicine had not been discovered, but the palliative qualities of certaiu remedies were recognized. Mr. McCall admitted when Interrogated by Mr. Hughes that former Judge Andrew Hamilton and other lawyers were hired by the life Insurance company for the especial purpose of using their influence to defeat bills which, In the opinion of the different companies, might injure their interests.
