The new bridge to the West Side
W8I the bone of nnother contention at
Inst night'n meeting of select council,
Mr. Tlioinas introduced u resolution to
tha effect that the city engineer bo in
structed to make un estimate on the
cost of constructing n bridge across tbe
Lackawanna river at Mulberry stroot
and ascertain what damage , if any,
would result to property owners by tlio
opening o( u street from Wuiinus of
said proposed bridjto to North Main
avenue and tho coat of grading Raid
street. Mr. Durr moved to lay the
resolution on the table, but the motion
was lost by it vote of 11 to 9.
Thu debate tliat followed Hani action
on tha resolution was participated in
by Mr. Roche, Mr. Sanderson, Mr.
Luuer and other'1. Mr. Koche opposed
the passage of the resolution i.i a very
sarcastic speech, lie could not under
stand, he declared, why some of tlio
gentlemen present should display such
intimity its characterize! their treat
ment of the Linden street bridge mat
ter. Nobody, ba asserted, favored tha
change to Mulberry, rzoept few per
sons who are selfishly interested in hav
ing tho bridge built on that :roet.
Mr. L iuer replied to tho gentleman,
Raying that if some of the members
were inflicted with insanity, there was
certuinly method in their madness.
The ol Jeot of the resolution, ho said,
was to ascertain what the :.pproxim:ite
cost of a bri lsa at Mulberry street
would be. There was nothing wrong
in that and nobody cotill reasonably
object. If tho councilman went blind
ly ahead in such matter.i there would
bo good reason to think that when
they died the psoplo wonhi build them
n monument of jackass skulls 150,) foet

tlons pro and con were discntsed, but

CORONER WILL INVESTIGATE.
To AtotrtalD What Caaiad Oaath cf
John Mulfavlitr, cf Priceburs;.
A suspicious death occurred at the
Lackawanna b0Bpit.1l at 1 o'clock yes
terday afternoon and an investigation
by Coroner Kelly today may result iu
an inquest.
At noou three Hungarians entered
the hospital supporting a man of the
same nationality, who waS scarcely
able to walk. Dr. McAndrewa was
lijistily summoned, and, perceiving tho
man's condition, had him taken to tho
operating room for immediate treat
ment. Tho spokesman of the trio gave tho
name of John Pruvicpiita, and s dd the
sick man was John Mnlfavisk, of Price
burg. After securing this inf ormation
tho doctor tnrnod his attontion to tho
patient and tho men hurriedly de
parted. Ic was found tint tho man was iu n
stute of collapse. The pulso was
koaroely perceptible and breathing wus
labored. During tho lirst ten minutes
he complained of pains in his stomach
aud legs. After this ho did not apuak.
For nearly an hour the attempt was
made to Stimulate the heart's action
and revive the man r.officiently to ot
tain a clue ns to the cause of his sick
ness. The attempt was fruitless and
shortly before 1 o'clock !ua than an
hour after bsing received I.Iulfavislt
died
Inasmuch ns the hospital officials
were completely ignorant of tho cause
of tho man's death, and because of tho
immediate departure of his compan
ions, Dr. McAndrevrt thought th case
u proper one for tho coroner to ut
least Invesiitfste.
Coroner Kelly was engaged on basi
nets at Pittston during yesterday
afternoon and did uot return until lutn
In tho evening. Ho will give the mat
ter his attention thi morning. If in
his opinion MulfavUk's death might bu
tho result of poisoning or other unnat
ural came, an Inquest will follow.
Dr. MoAodrewa, of tho hospital,
would not admit to a Tribuxb reporter
last night that ho BUtploloued poison
ing, lie said, however, that owing to
the absence of any dt finite cauao of
dent li und from the luots rehearsed
above, tho cuso properly belongs to tho
coroner to do with as ho may elect.
