WILKES BARRE, PA. PENNSY SIAY GET LONG DESIRED OPENING HERE Will Connect with D. H. On New Wilkes Barre Connecting Line. Wheu the Wilkes Barre contiecjins line between Hudson and a point south of Wilkes Barre is "put into operation on Monday next and connects the Pennsylvania and Delaware and Hudson rail days in a through route 0 freight it is believed by many that the first step will have been taken to set an opening into Scranton for the Pennsylvania railroad.

This has been the objective of the Pennsylvania for some years. This new line has. been built to relieve congestion in the yards of both companies at tlkes Barre and yarns are in the. course of construction at. Hudson and at Buttonwood, north and south of Wilkes Barre.

'Part or the old roadbed of the Wilkes Barre and Eastern railroad ha i been used in the con struction of this new line. On Monday the first trains will be run over the new section and Delaware and Hudson engines will take thWr trains to Buttonwood while Pennsylvania crews with trains for the north will leave their trains at Hudson, which Is the terminus at this end of tle connecting line. Throueh freight trains will pass around Wilkes Barre f.nd the handling of traim for.lhe south tind west will be expedited considerably. The first olticial train was rust over the new set lion on Tuesday when offl cials of both companies made an Inspection trip. Tht.se in the party were: L.

X. Allibone. superintendent Sunbury di vision: B. F. Bright, trainmaster: ieo F.

Everard. assistant trainmaster: Thompson, division engineer: G. Foust, statistician, all of the Pennsylvania Pennsylvania division. Delaware and comDanv: C. A.

Morgan, superintendent Hudson: J. J. trainmaster: G. S. Graham, master mechanic; Henry Booth.

road foreman of engines: iv Bates, industrial agent, and John J. Pm ie division freight and passenger agent, all of the Delaware and Hudson comDanv. When questioned as, to the possibility of the Pennsylvania eventually getting into Scranton local officials or tne ueia ware and Hudson company said it was hardlv likely, although they did not deem it improbable that the move would be made. WAR CUTS EARNINGS OF NEW RIVER FUEL Dispatches from Boston yesterday announced that the Xew River company, in which a great deal of Scranton capital is invested, and which operates soft coal minest in West Virginia, will show a small balance of net earnings in the year to end March 31. This is good news to the Scranton shareholders in view of the fact that last year the company's loss was $37.0.) and two years ago the deficit was $211,000.

Onlv for a sluinD in the soft coal busi ness in October much bigger net earn ings would have been shown. The output this year is 1.500,000 tons as compared with 1.4S2.000 in the previous year, but the profit was bigger because of increased efficiency and the installation of electric power and other economical operating methods. The company is now equipped to I urn out 200.4)00 tons a month, and last September the output was 160.000, the Bosr ton disp. say. Since the market went to pieces in October the company has not had demands for more than 146.000 tons a month and the falling off of the market meant merely urealtlng a little better than even instead or a $50,000 monthly profit to the company.
