CLAIMS
BOTH
MEN
Mr. Scranton Says Be Has Trice u Manj
Delegates as Mr. Fellows.
LATTER DISPUTES THE CUlIS
His Friends Declare That He Will Be
Nominated and Hava a Half Dozen
Votes to Spare Manner In Which
the Candidates Figure out Their
Majorities Congressional Fight Is
Overshadowing Everything.
There were many interesting contests
for delegate in the various election dis
tricts of the county Saturday. The
fight between J. A. Sorantoa and J, H.
Fellows for tbe Republican nomination
for congress overshadowed all else and
the candidate for tbe different county
offiots threw their influence and efforts
with the Scranton or Fellows foroes
just as It snited them so to do.
Id nearly every district in tbe eounty
sets of delegates representing the op
posing candidates were in tbe field
and made royal battle for the privilege
of oasting it vote in tomorrow's con
vention. So close was the straggle that in sev
eral districts the vote is a tie for the
opposing candidates. From 4 nntil 7
o'clock there was one long sustained
effort to get every Republican voter to
tbe polls, and haoks and carriages of
every deseription were pressed into
service to earry tbe tnuob sought voter
to the place where tbe balloting was
being done.
ON THE WEST SIDE.
Some of tbe most interesting fights
took plaoe on the West Side, which is
the home of Mr. Fellows. Mr. Scran
ton has many warm political friends
there and they did gallant service for
him Saturday.
After tbe balloting was over Satur
day evening both Mr. Beranton and
Mr. Fellows cla imed a majority of the
delegates and they were making tbe
same claim last evening.
Mr. Scranton was seen at his office
by a Tbibonb reporter. Be was dis
cussing the situation with several
friends in a happy, confident way that
would indioate that his mind was at
ease concerning tbe ontcome of tomor
row's convention.
"What is the situation, did you ask?"
queried Mr. Sorauton after tbe reporter
bad stated his mission. "Well, I have
two delegates to Mr. Fellows' one tak
ing the county as a whole. To begin
with Carbondale will give me a praotl
cally solid delegation and the
same is true of the districts
between this city and Carbondale,
I will have a 'fair share of the
delegates from the country districts
east of the mountain and a practically
solid delegation from north of tbe
mountain and from Old Forge and
Lackawanna. I have seventeen of tbe
thirty-three delegates from the West
Side, and a majority from the South
Side, central city and Dunmore."
If these figures are correct there is
every reason why Mr, Soranton should
view with complacency tomorrow's
gathering.
WHAT THE OTHER SIDE CLAIMS.
. Mr. Fellows' boomers are not dis
mayed by the claims of Mr. Scranton,
and confidently assert that the ex
mayor will be nominated and have at
least half a dozen votes to spare.
iTuey do some figuring that is
entirely different than that indulged in
by Mr. Scranton. For instance, they
claim that Mr. Fellows will have
twenty-two of the thirty-three West
Side delegates with him in the conven
tion ; that thirteen of the fifteen South
Side delegates are pledged to him; that
be has the entire delegation from
tbe First ward and a majority of
those from the Second. Altogether be
claims to bave ten of the sixteen North
End delegates. In tbe central wards
be says be has seven delegates. To
summarize, Mr. Fellows claims that
fifty-one delegates in this city were
elected for him. He says his'oomina
tlon Is assured if the delegates obey
the instructions they received from
constituents at the polls.
Qeorge Okell says that be will be
nominatsd. George 6. Watson declares
that the result of tbe delegate election
is very satisfactory to him and Elward
House is of tbe opinion that be will be
one of tbe strongest men in tbe con
vention. Other candidates express
similar sentiments.

VE11Y NARROW ESCAPE.
Edward Price Almost Succeeded in
Committing Suicide In the West
Side Station House.
Edward Prioe. a young man residing
on Sberman avsnue, was arrested at
12 30 o'clock Sunday morning by Lien
tenant Williams at Main avenue and
Jackson street. He was very drunk
and was lotted up in Cell No. 1 at the
West Side station house. Officers
Charles Neuls and John Molr came
from the central city about 8 o'clock
yesterday morning with tbe patrol
wagon to to take Price over to tbe
mavor's court
Officer Neuls went to tbe young man's
eeli and endeavored to wake him. He
waa unable to do so, and discovered
that Price bad endeavored to bang him
self in a most peculiar manner.
A bandkerebief was tightly tied
around bis neck, and another fastened
to this was tied around one of the bars
of the cell. The tension on the hand
kerchiefs was very great, as be had
been lying on the prison bunk when be
fastened them, but bad rolled off, and
was now hanging with bis feet on the
tbe floor and head suspended.
Neuls qolekly cut the cords and
Price fell exhausted to tbe floor of tbe
cell. He had become black in the faoe,
and it required tbe greatest efforts of
tbe policemen to revive him.
The most eurious thing in connec
tion with the affair is that the young
mas not aware of tbe faet that he had
attempted suieide, and when revived,
moralized on the disastrous effects of
strong drink. In polios conrr Price
was fined $10. It wss paid by bis wife.
LOCAL INDUSTRIAL NOTES.
Since the building season opened ship
ments of lime, cement and allied material
to this city have kept pace with the quan
tities received in other years. This may
be taken as a guarantee that many new
buildings are in course of erection.
The Council brick yards in the No. 5
meadows bave been operating very fairly
during the present season. The industrial
depression, as Is generally observed, did
not interfere at all with building opera
tions and that accounts for the briskness
in this manufacture.
Three months ago a spark from a pass
ing locomotive on the Delaware and Hud
son Canal railroad set fire to one of the
culm dumps at the Meadow Brook breaker
of William Connell & Co.. and a ateady
stream of water from a two-inch pipe has
been pouring on tbe culm since. It is
thought that the fire is now extinguished.
Over ten thousand tons of culm, it is esti
mated, have been reduced to ashes.
Since the election of a Democratic presi
dent and oongress tbe South Side silk
mills have operated not better than half
time and with a reduced force of hands.
When the impression crept oat that Presi
dent Cleveland would veto tbe Wilson bill,
these Industries prepared to increase their
working hours and also re-employ most of
tbe employee who were lata oil. The pas
sage of the bill, however, throws the ex
pectation of revived business at the silk
mills into statu quo.
President 3. A Lansing, of the Scranton
Btove works; General Manager William F.
Hallsteadand General Coal Agent W. H.
Storra. of the Delaware. Laokawanna and
Western Railroad company are three offi
cials who do not tolerate dishonesty among
their employes. A complaint entered
against any man employed under them re
lative to delinquency in paying legitimate
blue Is equivalent to a aisonarge. Jrirst,
however, the employe is ordered to settle
up. It be does not, then off goes bis head.
MInooka.
Ths citizens who are opposine the erec
tion of the new Moosic school held another
meeting en Saturday night to tske further
steps In tbe matter. Martin MoDonough
actea aa cnairzoan or tee meeting witn w.
J. Barke secretary. The report of the com
mittee who were instructed to confer with
lawyers and have an injuction served was
read. The report stated it would cost 1100
to send It through, ana would no doubt be
successful if sufficient proof can be had to
show tbat tbe school is unnecessary.
The cltls.DS of this place who are oppos
ing the erection of tbe new school request
the citizens of Moosio who are also la op
position to its election, to bold a meeting
at the latter place and to confer with the
committee from this place.
It la reported that the No. 2 colliery of
the Greenwood Coal company, will sus
pend operations nntil It rain, as the pres
ent supply of water is in sufficient to oper
ate the machinery.
Tbe 140,000 School Hones
for Columbia avenue has been let and Will
be commenced immediately. There are
still a tsw lots left at a low price.

Tbe victorious riflsmen of the Thir
teenth regiment team returned from
Mount Greta Saturday, where they
won every match. Tbat is no small
distinction when it is considered tbat
they were pitted against tbe best
marksmen of every regiment in the
state.
It was ths Thirteenth that won tbe
skirmish match on Friday, instead of
tbe Sixteenth regiment team as at first
reported. Tuesday and Wednesday
were alloted to preliminary or practi cal
shooting, and in these matohes the
members of the Thirteenth did not ex
ert themselves, as it meant nothing.
Tbe scores of these preliminary
matches were given to the publio and
led many to believe tbat tbe local
marksmen were being defeated. Sueb
was not the oase. They kept in tbe
background, so to SDeak. nntil Thurs
day when tbe shooting in the matehes

LABOR OAV AT MOUNTAIN PARK.
Qsneral Coxsy Bsllversd a Very Fatig
uing Addreee.
The Labor Day exercises held at
Monntain Park on Saturday, by tbe
Knights of Labor of the Laekawanna
and Lucerne counties did net attract a
very large assemblage.
Usnerel Jacob Coxsy's address. which
waa billed as the star feature of tbe
day, was a disappointment His text
was -uooa KoaJs and Non-Interest
Bonds." Before Mr. Coxey had been
long orating bis auditors discovered
tbat bis ideas did not possess cohesive
qualities and at times it was difficult
to understand just what tbe ex-com
mander of tbe Army of Peace was
driving at.
There were ample opportunity for
tbe sons of toil te enjoy tbemsslves
and, barring Coxey's address, Which
lasted an hour and a half, tbe day was
unmarred by any wearisome feature.
