A CARPET FACTOHY.
An Enterprising Individual Wants to
Locate One in This City Rea
sons He Advances.
The conference between the manu
facturers' committee of the board of
trade and a gantlemnn sonneoted with
one of the biggest ingrain carpet man
ufsctoriea in the country who desires
to form a stock company and locate a
plant in this city, was held yesterday
afternoon at the board of trade rooms.
For the present the gentleman does
not care to have his name mentioned
and the manufacturer's committee
considered his rimsons worth respect
ing his wishes. He is general manager
of a large concern that makes ingrain
carpet, cut the plant which be proposes
to build in this city wouid be erected
for the manufacture eoloiy of tapestry
carpet.
A competition would ensue betwsen
the company which he is at present
employed by and the prospective fac
tory and it would cause, perhaps, some
unpleasantness. So far there has been
nothing tangible done and until he is
assured that Scranton capital will take
an interest in the scheme, ha wants to
remain in the back ground.
The meeting yesterday was the first
Btep. J he gentlemen outlined his
scheme to the committee in this
manner: It will require a capital stock
of $130,000 to start the factory In proper
shape. Of this snm, and as a test of
his good faith, he is ready to subscribe
one-third of the stock himself, the re
minder to be raised in this oity.
He argued the advisability of taking
np his proposition and laid before the
committee facts and figures which im
pressed them as to the validity of his
statements.
A number of the wholesale carpet
merchants of the city were present and
they also believed that it would be a
good investment. Such conservative
business men as William Connell and
Luther Keller became deeply interested
in the proposition and believe it will
be a good thing.
The gentlvinan promised thiit the
plant would yield a dividend of 10 per
cent, the second year. As a basis to
this statemont he produced proofs of
the costs of manufacturing carpet and
the present market value of it
The committee decided by unani
mous rote to make a favorable recom
mendation at the next meeting of the
board of trade.
AT THE THEATERS.
At the Frothingbam this afternoon the
full Innes band will give a concert in its
matchless style and the vocal artists will
all appear. The descriptive feature will
be the now famous "Trip to the World's
Fair," which Mr. innes has made such a
favorite in New York city. In the even
ing the "War and Peace" musical spec
tacle will close the programme amid the
marching of Company D of the Thirteenth
regiment and the war veterans of Griffin
post, Grand Army of the Republic, aud
the booming of the famouB artillery ac
companiment. It will be a memorable
musical day thronghout, and a rich treat
is promised to all who are partial to the
finest vocal music, which will be rendered
by Miss Martha Garrison Miner, a charm
ing new soprano, whose fresh and fine
voice, so highly cultivated, so flexible and
brilliant, will create a sensation; Mi.s
Louise Engel, the rich voiced contralto of
Patti concert fame: C. C. Ferguson, the
favorite New York tenor, with a high,
clear and ringing voice, and Bowman Ral
ston, one of the grandest bassos ever
beard In America, who has a purely basso
voice, and who comes from several sea
sons of success as the principal of the
famous Carl Horn Opera company.

One of the most complete scenio produc
tions of recent years will be seen at Scran
ton next Monday night. The play in qnes
tion is "Shaft No. 8," which had its first
production in Philadelphia on Aug. IS.
The play is a domestic drama, with a story
dealing with every day people and inci
dents, but they are so deftly woven to
gether in a plot that has in it everything
to make it one of interest of the most ab
sorbing kind. Not only is the play a good
one, bnt it is put npon the stage in a man
ner seldom, if ever seen, before in this
country. The electrical effects are said to
be a perfect rovelntion, for in the third
act it culminates in the villain being struck
by a bolt of lightning as he stands In the
middle of the stage, something that has
K-ver been even attempted on the stage
before. The company is headed by Frauk

Legal Machinery of the West Side Yladuci
Oiled by lbe Hustlers.
ONE C01M1IIEE THAT COUNTS
Meeting Held Yesterday in Mayor
Connell's Office Which Straightens
Out the Legal Snare In the Viaduct
Ordinance and Sets It on Its Road to
Final Passage Prospects for Its
Consummation.
Each member of the (Vest Side via
duct booming committee is entitled to
indite "hustler" when writing his
name, lot by their work during the
past two days they have proved beyond
a aoabt their right and title to that air
tinction.
Two days ago the ordinanse provid
ing for a viaduct over the D.. L. & W.
tracks on West Laokawanna avenue
was snugly reposing in a pigeon hole in
the city clerk's effiee calmly awaiting
the fate of its predecessor which died
with the expiration of the old councils
It had a legal defect and it seemed no
one cared enough about the proposed
improvement to seek a means of over
coming this obstaole. One effort was
made to svt the ordinance In motion
again, bnt it was such a feeble heated
move that it did not evon cause the
ordinance to leave the room in which
its berth whs.
WHKHB THE DEFECT WAS.
The defect in the mehsure was con
tained in the clause which provided
that viewers should be appointed to
oessss the damages before the ordi
nance was finally passed. Court ap
pointed the viewers but afterwards re
voked the appointment, claiming that
no assessment eould be made for an
improvement until that improvement
was legally provided for.
Council was somewhat chary about
making the ordinance operative before
the amount of damages was ascertain
ed, inasmuch as the damages, after
they bad been awarded and no matter
what their extent might be, could be
collected, providing the ordinance was
passed even though, the viaduct might
never be built.
It was argued that In case the dam
ages wore deemed excessive the ordi
nance could be repealed any time with
in thirty days after the viewers hud
m ide their report to oourt, but it was
feared that the West bide couneilmen
could not ba relied upon to rote for the
repeal and this again made the conserv
ative members wiiry of passing the
measure.
KINKS STRAIGHTENED OUT.
Now all this is straightened out, and
the viaduct ordinance is once more on
the road to final passage. A meeting
of the special viaduct comraitteo was
called by Mayor Connell ysterday at
the instigation of the Hyde Park
hustlers. Mayor Connell, City Solici
tor Torrey, City Engineer Phillips,
Councilman Hickey, W. J. Thomas,
Simon Thomas, Wagner and demons,
and Messrs, Powderly, iarr, Davits.
Price and Clarke were present.
After much disaussion and consulta
tion it was dtcided to amend the ordi
nance so that it ishall provide for the
appointment of viewers, after the
adoptiodof the ordinanoe, which action
overcomes the legal difficulty, and to
report it ss amended with a farorable
recommendation to councils tonight.
It is not expected that the viaduet
can be built this year, although Select
man W. J. Thomas, is confident that it
can. He ssys the ordinance can be
rushed through conncil in two weeks.
the viewers can be appointed and their
work accomplished in two weeks more
and nothing remains to be done then
but to secure the approval of eourt and
advertise for bids. However, the major
ity of the councllmen and oity officials
favor making haste elowiy, and it can
be safely asserted that no work will be
done on the viaduct before next spring.
That will be perfectly satisfactory to
the "hustlers and the people of Hyde
Park, according to the expressed opi
nion of members of the committee.
MISSION HAS GROWN.
Penn Avenue Church's Offshoot Will Be
Made a Parish,
The regular Wednesday evening
prayer meeting and business session
following was held at the Penn Avenue
Baptist church last night. Luther
Keller was presiding officer. After in
teresting prayer service was concluded

tary's report of the thurch wonld be
read and then he had a communication
to lay before the members. It came
from fifty-five communicants who be
long to the Dunmore mission and are a
component part of the Penn Avenue
church.
It was a petition requesting the
church to allow the members of the
Dunmore mission the privilege of erect
ing themselves into a parish. It was
unanimously agreed to grant the
wishes of the Dunmore brethren.

REPAIRS ARE ALMOST COMPLETE.
The Side Walla and Roof of the Court
House Are Made Safe.
The workmen engaged in repairing
the roof and side walls of the court
house will be through with their work
by the end of the week.
Masons started to work yesterday on
the plastering of the crevices in the
roof with cejnent to keep out the win
ter rains and snow.
The repairs so far have made the roof
more substantial and strengthened the
side walls materially.
The county commissioners are now
satisfied that the court house is safe,
and the condition of the structure at no
time was as toppling ns impressions
from certain quarters would have est
tba people to believe.

MARRIAGES LEGAL.
Common Consent Is All That Is
Necessary What Chief Simp
son Has to Say.
Alderman Wright's contention that
it is unlawful for alderman to act in
thier official capacity in a ward other
than the one in which they were
elected has been substantiated by a
number of prominent lawyers who were
questioned on the subject yesterday.
Ac regards the marriages which have
been Performed i the oourt home by
outside aldermen one attorney gave
the opinion that tbey are as binding in
the eyes of the law as if they bad been
performed by the highest churob dig
nitary in the land. Common consent in
the presence of witnesses is all that
is required in the spirit of the law not
withstanding that certain forms are
prescribed in carrying out the cere
mony. Consequently those couples who
were married in the eourt house by
aldermen other tun Mr. Wright will
have to stay married until they get a
divorce or other acknowledged legal
method of separation.
Chief Simpson says that the calling
la of outside aldorman to bo'.d police
conrt is in strict aceord with the law
inasmuch as the alderman is not act
ing as an alderman but as police
magistrate in place of the !mayor.
Lawyers who were (interviewed on the
subject differ with the chief in this
Dfvter.
AMONG THEPOLITICIANS.
The Republican delegate election in the
First district of the Eighth ward will be
held Saturday aftarnoou between the
hours of 4 and 7 o'clock, at the otlke of A.
R. Raub.
John F. Farrell is the latest to announce
himself as a candidate for the Democratic
nomination for jury commissioner. He is
the thirteenth in the field. It's the only
office there is a rush for.
As the time for the Reuublican and
Democratic county conventions draws
close there is a noticeable increase of in
terest in matters political. Candidates
for delegate in the various election dis
tricts are at work among their friends,
candidates for office are scurrying about
and everything indicates that au inter
esting political struggle is approaching.
On Saturday the Republican piimaries
will be held between the hours of 4 and 7
p. m. A large vote will be cast through
out the county, as the members of the
party are thoroughly aroused and evince
lively interest au the impending cam
paign that augurs III for the Democratic
party. In many of the districts the con
tests for delegate promise to be exciting.
Attorney C. R. Pitcher has issued a call
for a meeting of the Democratic senatorial
committee of this district at the Central
Democratic club rooms on Saturday after
noon to fix a date for a senatorial conven
tion, M. F. Sando aud M. E. McDonald
have been waging a determined fight for
the nomination for some time, but an ef
fort is now being made by mutual friends
to effect a compromise and It is probable
that the name of but one of them will eo
before the convention.
Although the date for the Democratic
primaries is little more than a week away
very few of the ward statesmen, of which
that party breeds an unnumbered host,
have as yet entered the lists as candi
dates for delegates. Candidates for county
offices, anxious for votes are not rushing
forward to guarantee "expenses," aud
consequently the pure minded ward states
man keeps within his tent lest he be
tempted to sacrifice himself on the altar of
party dnty. It is a Bure indication of
stagnation of lnterost In party success
when candidates for office and for dole-
gate are few in number a week prior to a
convention. It indicates more than that,
namely, that even rosy-hued hope has
fuiled to point a possible pathway to vio-
tory.
