Nantucket Lightship Was in The wlraless telephone Is a new Invention that must be credited to a man who called on Chief of Police Loftus this morning at the city hall. The man apparently had no trouble in talking to Cork Lane residents and his exhibition so Interested the chief that he decided not to allow him to get away from the city hall. About 9:30 this morning, Just as the chief had opened his desk, a man of about 35 years came Into him and eald: "Chief you're wanted In Cork Lane right away." "What's the matter?" said the chief, not ».suspecting anything wrong with the man. The reply he received Was: 'Why, 'Squire Keating, Constable McLatle and two other men are up there with revolvers and I want them arrested." So Declare the Steel Trust Stockholders. Warsaw. Architect Osterling will hereafter koep a representative at the new court house with full authority to look after the duties of the architect and see that the building is erected in accordance with the plans and specifications. Since the commencement of work at the now court house It has always been contended by the taxpayers that tho architect should either remain in this city during the erection of the newcourt house or put a competent superintendent of construction on the ground at his own expense. Little fault was found while the foundations were being built owing to the numerous delays, but when work was resumed on a large scale by Carlucci & Co., Controller Norrls renewed the request for a competent representative of the architect on the ground.

This Is the opinion of several high officials of the corporation.Warsaw, Dee. 41.—What Is considered by many the real revolution against the ezar has begun in this ancient capital of Poland. « Newport, R. I., Dec. 11.—Anchored and aleak forty-two miles out in the Atlantic ocean in a seventy-two mile gale and sending regular wireless messages to land as water poured into ber lire room, the Nantucket shoals lightship faced destruction. The last message received read: Indications are that Contract Miners Will Receive No Increase, that Laborers Will Gat an Increase, that 8 Hours Will be Waived and Recognition Granted, A company of the Rexliolm regiment, only recently returned from Manchuria, broke from the barracks and heading a procession of strikers Joined in singing revolutionary songs. In Mar•zaikowska street General Prebodnoff, in command of a battalion of the Grochowikl regiment, barred the way and ordered his men to fire on the revolutionary soldiers. The chief did begin to think there was something wrong then and his suspicions were, strengthened when the stranger turned his face toward Cork Lane, "put his hand behind his right ear and said: "Hello, Manus, how many cops do you think you'll need? The chief says he won't come. Will four be enough? Good bye." He then turned to the chief and said: "I was just talking to Cork Lane and ho says four cops '11 be enough." He then explained that he was using a telephone that only two detectives and himself knew about. While he was being searched he tried to talk to Cork Lane again but could not, he said, because there was smoke on the line. The man Is being held In the Jail pending an examination. He gave his name as Coxe. While Osterling was In the city last week the matter was again brought to his attention and he said that he felt that tho work had now progressed far enough to warrant a man being placed at the building at his expense. It Is believed that he will send Mr. Gardner, one of his superintendents of construction—Wlllkesbarre Record. A movement is on foot to have the headquarters brought back to Pittsburg. The reason to be given is that the general officers and the president could keep In closer touch with the affairs of the plants, the most important of Which are in and around this city. The financial department of the corporation will remain In New York, to be near the financiers who control Its destiny. "We are helpless. Sea rough and gale continues. WaterDtill gaining."

The men of PrebodnofT's command declined to obey orders and permitted the procession to pass. More than 100 of the Groehowski regiment, fully armed, joined the revolutionists.

One of the most flburishing organizations In the city is the Mercantile Protective association, which is composed of the retail merchants of Pittston, West Pittston and vicinity. The retailers of the community quite generally are Interested In the organization and enter enthusiastically Into its work. Just now the organization is planning for a social event. In the form of a banquet, which will be held on the evening of Jan. 11th, 1906, the placo to be fixed upon later. A committee Is now at work on the details. The intention is-to make the banquet a very tine affair, and no expense or effort will be spared to make it such. Interest will be added to the banquet by the fact that a communication has been received from John A, Green, of Cleveland. O.. accepting the Invitation of the committee -to attend the banquet and deliver an address. Mr. Green Is the president of the National Association of Retail Grocers of the United States, which was organized at the World's Fair, Chicago, In 189S, and which was reorganized In Cleveland, O., In 1900. The association Is now on a very substantial basis and National President Green Is very active In the .work of advancing its interests. HJs coming to Plttflton is regarded as an Important event by the merchants, he being a man of national reputation. Recently Mr. Green had an interview with President Roosevelt concerning the need of a national pure food law, and It Is said that the President encouraged him to proceed with the work of arousing sentiment in favor of such a statute. Mr. Green may be expected to deliver a very interesting address at the banquet of the Pittston merchants, q.s he is in close touch with mercantile work throughout the United States and can give many new ideas that will be of value to the local merchants. Ho has just returned from a convention of retail merchants In Akron. O., which he says was one of the most enthusiastic mercantile gatherings that lie ever attended.

He is regarded as the brains of the revolutionary movement, and he has displayed genius in orgunlzing both the Industrial and politieal strikes which have terrorized the government. It is believed that the government, realizing that a great struggle with the workmen and the Socialist organizations is Inevitable in January, arrested Krustalcff with the intention of deliberately precipitating matters by challenging the organizations before they were fully prepared.

They were in a wagon, to which a team of horses was attached, Harris was driving. A south bound electric car came along, and apparently was unobserved by Mr. Harris. When the car | was about 30 feet away from the outfit, Mr. Harris suddenly turned the : horses to cross the track. They stepped directly In front of the oncoming car. Harris and Bond were on the seat of the wagon and both -were thrown out. Mr. Harris lahded on his head and his neck was broken. He was carried Into Evans* hotel and died about three-quarters of an hour later. Bond received bad bruises and cuts. The third man jumped and escaped uninjured.

Now that the tests have been completed, Mr. Norris makes official report that, in his opinion, much of the ironwork does not come up to the requirements. In fact, he declares in his report that it will not be safe for the county commissioners to accept the work that was tested, on account of the danger that might result from too great strain being placed upon it.

First they carefully cut away a screen that covered the window and then they tried to open the window. The sash yielded and was being carefully raised when the mishap occurred that caused the plans of the burglars to go awry. Just above the window a plate had been placed 011 a small shelf, though not as a burglar alarm. Those working on the window did not set; this dish until the top of the sash dislodged it. The plate fell against the window and smashed the glass to pieces, and then it fell to the floor with a clatter that aroused all In the house.

At the Exeter there is a frame trestlework about 60 feet high running between the breaker and the washery, for the purpose of holding in position the conveyor lino that carries the fine coal and culm from the breaker to the washery. The trestle is substantially constructed of heavy timbers and is well braced, yet shortly after dinner yesterday, when there was a particularly heavy gile of wind in progress, a section of the trestle about 100 feet long was blown out of position and collapsed. There was a great crash when the trestle went down, and it was followed by a great cloud of dust that rose high in the ulr. Nobody was injured by the falling trestle and the damage done was not very great, but the accident was sufficiently serious to cause a suspension of work at the colliery today. Arrangements have been made for the operation of the breaker Independently of the washery tomorrow, and the trestle will be rebuilt as quickly us possible.

The man apparently had no trouble in talking to Cork Lane residents and his exhibition so Interested the chief that he decided not to allow him to get away from the city hall. About 9:30 this morning, Just as the chief had opened his desk, a man of about 35 years came Into him and eald: "Chief you're wanted In Cork Lane right away." "What's the matter?" said the chief, not ».suspecting anything wrong with the man. The reply he received Was: 'Why, 'Squire Keating, Constable McLatle and two other men are up there with revolvers and I want them arrested." So Declare the Steel Trust Stockholders. Warsaw. Architect Osterling will hereafter koep a representative at the new court house with full authority to look after the duties of the architect and see that the building is erected in accordance with the plans and specifications. Since the commencement of work at the now court house It has always been contended by the taxpayers that tho architect should either remain in this city during the erection of the newcourt house or put a competent superintendent of construction on the ground at his own expense. Little fault was found while the foundations were being built owing to the numerous delays, but when work was resumed on a large scale by Carlucci & Co., Controller Norrls renewed the request for a competent representative of the architect on the ground.

I., Dec. 11.—Anchored and aleak forty-two miles out in the Atlantic ocean in a seventy-two mile gale and sending regular wireless messages to land as water poured into ber lire room, the Nantucket shoals lightship faced destruction. The last message received read: Indications are that Contract Miners Will Receive No Increase, that Laborers Will Gat an Increase, that 8 Hours Will be Waived and Recognition Granted, A company of the Rexliolm regiment, only recently returned from Manchuria, broke from the barracks and heading a procession of strikers Joined in singing revolutionary songs. In Mar•zaikowska street General Prebodnoff, in command of a battalion of the Grochowikl regiment, barred the way and ordered his men to fire on the revolutionary soldiers. The chief did begin to think there was something wrong then and his suspicions were, strengthened when the stranger turned his face toward Cork Lane, "put his hand behind his right ear and said: "Hello, Manus, how many cops do you think you'll need? The chief says he won't come. Will four be enough? Good bye." He then turned to the chief and said: "I was just talking to Cork Lane and ho says four cops '11 be enough." He then explained that he was using a telephone that only two detectives and himself knew about. While he was being searched he tried to talk to Cork Lane again but could not, he said, because there was smoke on the line. The man Is being held In the Jail pending an examination. He gave his name as Coxe. While Osterling was In the city last week the matter was again brought to his attention and he said that he felt that tho work had now progressed far enough to warrant a man being placed at the building at his expense. It Is believed that he will send Mr. Gardner, one of his superintendents of construction—Wlllkesbarre Record. A movement is on foot to have the headquarters brought back to Pittsburg. The reason to be given is that the general officers and the president could keep In closer touch with the affairs of the plants, the most important of Which are in and around this city.

One of the most flburishing organizations In the city is the Mercantile Protective association, which is composed of the retail merchants of Pittston, West Pittston and vicinity. The retailers of the community quite generally are Interested In the organization and enter enthusiastically Into its work. Just now the organization is planning for a social event. In the form of a banquet, which will be held on the evening of Jan. 11th, 1906, the placo to be fixed upon later. A committee Is now at work on the details. The intention is-to make the banquet a very tine affair, and no expense or effort will be spared to make it such. Interest will be added to the banquet by the fact that a communication has been received from John A, Green, of Cleveland. O.. accepting the Invitation of the committee -to attend the banquet and deliver an address. Mr. Green Is the president of the National Association of Retail Grocers of the United States, which was organized at the World's Fair, Chicago, In 189S, and which was reorganized In Cleveland, O., In 1900. The association Is now on a very substantial basis and National President Green Is very active In the .work of advancing its interests. HJs coming to Plttflton is regarded as an Important event by the merchants, he being a man of national reputation. Recently Mr. Green had an interview with President Roosevelt concerning the need of a national pure food law, and It Is said that the President encouraged him to proceed with the work of arousing sentiment in favor of such a statute. Mr. Green may be expected to deliver a very interesting address at the banquet of the Pittston merchants, q.s he is in close touch with mercantile work throughout the United States and can give many new ideas that will be of value to the local merchants. Ho has just returned from a convention of retail merchants In Akron. O., which he says was one of the most enthusiastic mercantile gatherings that lie ever attended.

He is regarded as the brains of the revolutionary movement, and he has displayed genius in orgunlzing both the Industrial and politieal strikes which have terrorized the government. It is believed that the government, realizing that a great struggle with the workmen and the Socialist organizations is Inevitable in January, arrested Krustalcff with the intention of deliberately precipitating matters by challenging the organizations before they were fully prepared.

He was carried Into Evans* hotel and died about three-quarters of an hour later. Bond received bad bruises and cuts. The third man jumped and escaped uninjured.

Now that the tests have been completed, Mr. Norris makes official report that, in his opinion, much of the ironwork does not come up to the requirements. In fact, he declares in his report that it will not be safe for the county commissioners to accept the work that was tested, on account of the danger that might result from too great strain being placed upon it.

First they carefully cut away a screen that covered the window and then they tried to open the window. The sash yielded and was being carefully raised when the mishap occurred that caused the plans of the burglars to go awry. Just above the window a plate had been placed 011 a small shelf, though not as a burglar alarm. Those working on the window did not set; this dish until the top of the sash dislodged it. The plate fell against the window and smashed the glass to pieces, and then it fell to the floor with a clatter that aroused all In the house.

At the Exeter there is a frame trestlework about 60 feet high running between the breaker and the washery, for the purpose of holding in position the conveyor lino that carries the fine coal and culm from the breaker to the washery. The trestle is substantially constructed of heavy timbers and is well braced, yet shortly after dinner yesterday, when there was a particularly heavy gile of wind in progress, a section of the trestle about 100 feet long was blown out of position and collapsed. There was a great crash when the trestle went down, and it was followed by a great cloud of dust that rose high in the ulr. Nobody was injured by the falling trestle and the damage done was not very great, but the accident was sufficiently serious to cause a suspension of work at the colliery today. Arrangements have been made for the operation of the breaker Independently of the washery tomorrow, and the trestle will be rebuilt as quickly us possible.
