A MYSTERI01SFIRE.
Originated in 0 Bundle of Free Lances In
the Offico of Walter, Thompson and
Company.
At 1.20 this morning smoke was seen
Issuing from the second story windows
of the brick building at 305 Cent
street. Patrolman Melnzer turned In
an alarm to which the central city fin
companies responded.
The fire wag In the apartments on
the second floor occupied by Walter,
Thompson & Co., printers, and was
burning fiercely when the firemen ar
rived; By means of the chemical en
gine the fire was extinguished with but
trifling loss to the building and the
stock of the Arm. "
The first floor la used by Louis Con
rad, the hatter, and his stock was
slightly damaged. The rooms In which
the fire originated were used by the
late lamented Free Lance, and copies
of that paper were the first material
the flames fed upon. When Chief
Ferber was asked for his opinion of the
origin of the fire he kicked over a bun
die of partly burned Free Lances an
glancing at the scare headlines of
lurid article asking that the li?ht be
turned on In the court house, Bald:
"It may De mat these are respon
Bible. If not, I guess an Incendiary
muBt have been at work. I see nothlrfK
, here that could reasonably be expected
to do mischief except" and here he
glanced at the Free LanccB "that gas

Completed Returns Show That
First Estimates of Plurali
ties Were Too Small.
OYER HIGH . WATER MARK
Hastinns" Plurality Is More Than
Pour Thousand and Pryor Did
rive Hundred ISetter Demo
crats Still Hopeful of J
Bailey and Schadt.
The crrcatfiBt political hnttle In the
somewhat eventful history of Laolta
wanna countv la over, but It will be a
lone time before It Is forgotten.
Never before were candidates given
such Immense majorities as those re
ceived by Republican candidates Tues-
day.
That's why there was bo much re
jolcing yesUenlay.
The complete tuble printed In the edl
Hon of The Tribune put on the streets
at 10 o'clock yesterday showed that
preat gains had been made by the Ho
publican ticket everywhere and effectu-
ally answered the claims of a few reck
less Democrats who still clung to the
hope that the greater part of the Demo
cratic ticket had been elected.
Now that It Is all over and the smoke
of the battle has lifted sufficiently to
see the returns' impartially the Itepubll
cuiis of Scranton and Lackawanna
county take a pardonable pride In their
decisive victory.
Kstimates bnsed on available returns
at 5 o'clock yesterday mornlnff lndl
cated beyond peradventure that the
entire Republican county ticket was se
cure nnd had emerged with a safe
majority from one of the fiercest and
most stoically fought political contests
the history of the county. The vlc-
ry was complete and overwhelming,
but when It was found during yesterday
that the estimated majorities were far
below the real figures, additional cause
is given for satisfaction.
There Was Much Cutting.
The unusual tardiness of the returns
as considered by political students as
an Indication that the entire vote of the
county! had changed either toward
Democracy or Republicanism. The de
lay also Indicated split tickets and an
evidence that the rank and file of the
two great parties had been voting ac
cording to the dictation of conscience
and Independent of the influences of
party affiliations.
When, however, the reports began ar
vlng from the various sections of the
county and showed Republican gains
Ith but few exceptions, It became ap
parent that an installment testimonial
as being given for protection In the
national sense nnd for the Republican
candidates locally. The Tribune's re
port of the estimated majorities was
merely a photograph of the opinions of
the most sanguine Republicans, but the
Increased majorities now presented
only goes to show tho underestimate of
the strength of the party In this county.
Its unity and the repudiation by the
people of Democracy and Its methods.
Bused upon the vote for Jury commis
sioner, which represents a comparative
Illustration of the vote of the two great
parties, a gain Is shown for all the
state and county Republican candl
dates with but four exceptions. Mr,
Matthews' (Rep.) plurality over the
Democratic Jury commissioner candi
date, Mr. Mannioiv Is 1,113. The head
of the Republican ticket very properly
shows the outpouring of other faiths
nto tho Republican fold, bo General
Hastings plurality of 4,097 over Mr.
Slngerly would Indicate that nearly
1,000 former Democrats repudiated the
principles of their party nnd expressed
their confidence In the Republican can
didates.
Grow Led Hastings.
Mr. Grow, for congressman at large,
polled nearly 600 more votes than the
other Republican candidate, Mr. Huff,
and has a plurality of 3.394 over Mr,
Meyer, who polled the larger Demo
cratic vote. Mr. Lyon for lieutenant
governor, has a plurality of 3,094; Mr.
Mylin, for auditor general 2,882, and
General Latta, for secretary of Inter
nal affairs, 2,61,4. Mr. Scranton, for con
gress, has a plurality of 2,248.
Clarence E. Pryor, who was re
elected prothonotary, lias the larg
est plurality of any of the lo
cal or even state candidates
His preference over Mr. Fahey Is Indi
cated by 4,599 surplus ballots. Not
withstanding Mr. Pryor's large plural
lty It Is not more flattering than tho
3,528 majority for Mr. Vaughan for
state senator over Mr. McDonald, the
present Incumbent, from a Democratic
district. This overwhelming result
means an undeniable and Arm dissatis
faction toward" Democratic mis-legisla
tion rather than any reflection on Mr,
McDonald's popularity, but It la quite
generally considered that Mr.
Vaughan's personality contributed
laigely toward such an unprecedented
victory in this district. Mr. McDon
ald's plurality In the Luzerne district
of 153 reduces Mr. Vaughan's total plu
rality to 3,375.
Judge Archbald will succeed himself
as president judge with a plurality of
1,758, while Mr. Heuster Is elected re
corder by 1,399 majority; Mr. Thomas,
clerk of the courts, by 768; Mr. Jones,
district attorney, by 1,809, and Mr. Hop
kins, register, by 676.
Sheriff and Treasurer.
The election of sheriff and treasurer
Is claimed by both Democratic and Re
publican candidates. Until a late hour
yesterday the friends of the opposing
candidates were engaged In compiling
and adding the returns for the two
offices. In the Interval several counts
were made with various results. Mr.
demons claims his election over Mr,
Bailey, and calculations made yester
day by several persons from the un
sealed returns In the prothonotary's of
fice give him pluralities ranging from
100 to 700. Mr. Davles also claims his
election ovor Mi. Schadt for treasurer
by a small plurality,
Talks with the Republican candidates
yesterday revealed the general opinion
that only two disappointments at
tended from the campaign and the vic
tory. They regretted that the cam
paign had been attended by disreput
able methods which cast no reflection
upon their own candidacies, and were
agreeably disappointed In tho unex
pected and large majorities. From all
quarters has come an expression of ap-
probation and compliment to Colonel E.
H. Ripple, chairman; W. S. Millar, sec
retary, and the other members of the
county executive committee. "
The result of the election was the
one topic of conversation everywhere
yesterday. On the streets, in the trol
ley car, In business places the Republi
can sweep was the favorite subject of
discussion. Of course Republicans
were enthusiastic; that goes without
saying.
They had reason to feel proud of the
grand endorsement given to the prin
ciples for which the Republican party
nas always stood: and they were
proud.
Democrats were correspondingly de
pressed, and few of the leaders were
visible about the city. The only candi
date who put in an appearance about
the court house was Charles Schadt.
Ho complied returns with the assist
ance of his brother and T. P. Duffy, and
last evening gave out as the result of
his figuring that he was elected and
had ninety-seven votes to spure. It re
mains to be seen whether or not Mr.
Schadt Is a success as a calculator.
The official count which begins today
will determine the fact.
The gloom of the Democratic candi
dates and loaders Is not affected. This
time It is genuine. They had confident
ly hoped for a victory and were griev
ously disappointed. It will take them
some time to recover from this defeat.
A well known Democrat gave it as his
opinion yesterday that the party ought
to take a rest for at least five years,
and he voiced the sentiment of many
other Democrats.
FOUR FROM THE COUNTY.
Tho Lntlro Legislative Delegation Is Re
publican.
Nowhere Is the wave of popular en
thusiasm for the Republican ticket that
has swept over the county more notice
able than In the vote polled In tho legis
lative districts. Of the four districts
of the county two are usually Demo
cratic and the others Republican, but
this year all four are found strongly
intrenched In the Republican column,
Alexander T. Connell has defeated
John P. Quinnnn In the Second district,
which was for years conceded to be an
unchangeably Democratic, but more re
markable still, Michael Turnover Uurke
was turned down In the Fourth district
by Charles P. O'Malley, who has a plu
rality of over 1,000. The district Is
usually looked upon as good for a
Democratic majority of 600.
Mr. Hurke's double dealing and
method of campaigning rendered his
defeat certain, but the great superior
ity of Mr. O'Malley as legislative timber
added to the enthusiasm all along the
line are responsible for the big vote
rolled up against him.
The opposition .to the re-election of
John R. Farr In the First district by a
few disgruntled Republicans did not In
Jure the plucky father of the compul
sory education bill to any extent, and
he goes back to Harrisburg to renew
the work for his constituents that he Is
by nature so admirably fitted to per
form. In the Third district Frank
(1 rover, a young man of fine attain
ments, walked away from his Demo
cratic opponent, George Nelson Van
Fleet.
Below will be found complete nnd ac
curately tabulated returns of the vote
In the four districts compiled from the
official returns.They will be found to
differ but little from the vote as re
corded In the last edition of yesterday's
Tribune.

MRS. LANGTRY.
A Wife's Peril," by B. C. Stevenson
and Clement Scott, was presented for
the first lime in America by Mrs. Lang-
try at the Frothlngham last night, be
fore a large and distinguished audience.
Barring the crudities of a first night,
the performance was highly success
ful, and the reception accorded to Its
central personuge cordial nnd even
generous. Mrs. Langtry did not wholly
fulfill the expectations of those who had
counted on viewing a most beautiful
woman who was simultaneously a great
actress; but It remains to be said that
she proved an Intelligent und at times
distinguished player, surrounded by ca
pable assistants.
"A Wife's Peril" Introduces us to a con
dition of society which has fortunately
not yet become general In new America,
although, perchance more common
abroad a condition where plaything
wives lead butterfly lives, read Ibsen or
French novels, nn the case may be, and
long for appreciative companion spirits,
in the guise uuuuliy of handsome young
men, who are the trusted friends of
their preoccupied but perfunctorily af
fectionate husbands. In this atmos
phcr, It may be natural enough for so
called friends to play alternately the
paiisite, the cad and the boor, as Sir
George Ormand's friends do In this
play; and for Parisian maids to be en
thusiastically caressed upon six hours'
acquaintance by precocious youths In
knickerbockers, as Sophie Is fondled by
Percy Grafton. Assuming thus much,
'A Wife's Peril" may Ksafely be said to
be true to life. But very happily It is
a kind of life that few of us have much
to do with, outside the library or the
theater; a kind that even In Its mimicry,
admirable though the representation
may be, does not appeal Btrongly to
one's sympathies nor often Invite one's
spontaneous applause.
if one could have analyzed the real
feelings of each auditor last night, he
would probably have discovered that
curiosity quite as much as anything
else led to the large attendance; and
that this curiosity, after Its quick feast
ing upon the personality of Mrs. Lang-
try herself, lapsed quite speedily Into
a mood approaching indifference In
difference not due to her lack of the
atrlc skill, but Inevitably resultant
from the play's Intrinsic vapidity. The
enterprise which brought this oppor
tunity to us deserves grateful notice
but, after all, are we really happier,
wiser or better since having seen either
actress or play 7

Leading Crocer N, LPa,
Conference Committee Fails to Even
Smooth the Difficulty. '
PAVING - ORDINANCE TROUBLE
Meanwhile West Lackawanna Avcnuo Is
n Terror to Humane Truckmen and
Property Owners - Nichols 4 Fahey
and Dunn Bros. Want Contract.
It Is mere chance whether West
Lackawanna avenue will be paved this
winter or next spring. Select and com
mon council have differed In awarding
the contract and the special confer
ence committees which met lust night
could not adjust the matter. The se
lectmen last evening were firm in their
argument that the contract should be
awarded to Nichols & Fahey, while the
the commoners contended that Dunn
Bros, should do the work. Following
the disagreement It la not Improbable
that there will be a deadlock In the
councils and the Important business
thoroughfare will remain for another
period In an almost impassible condi
tion, particularly in wet weather.
The specifications advertised Invited
bids on the paving and grading and
curbing separately. Following are the
two lowest bids to perform the work:
Nichols & Fahey, $1.99 per square yard
for pavingand grading, 49 cents per foot
for straight curbing, 80 cents per foot
for circular curbing, 20 cents per foot
for headers; Dunn Bros., $1.97 per square
yard for paving and grading, 79 cents
per foot for new curbing, 17 cents per
foot for relaying present curbing.
Beginning of the Deadlock.
When the paving committee of select
council considered the bids It de
cided that the whole of the Nichols &
Fahey bid would be cheaper than that
of Dunn BroB., although the latter of
fered to do the paving and grading 2
cents per foot cheaper. Select council
adopted Its committee's recommenda
tion, but when the measure went Into
the common body for concurrence It
disagreed with tho selectmen and
amended the award by giving to Dunn
Bros, the paving portion of the con-
act. Select council then refused to
concur In the amendment and the re
suit was last night's meeting of the con
ference committee.
Members Howe and McLean appeared
for common council nnd Members
Thomas, Williams and Sanderson for
the select body. Mr. Sanderson was
chosen chairman.
In the discussion which ensued Mr.
Howe and Mr. McLean argued that the
excessive bid of Dunn Bros, on the
curbing would be counterbalanced by
the curb laying of property owners,
that the business relutlons of the city
with Nichols & Fahey had not always
been pleasant, and that according to the
spirit. and letter of the ordinance the
award could very properly be split. The
select members contended that the or
dinance does not permit of a double
award, and that the bid of Nichols &
Fahey was the cheaper, considering all
Us details.
Wunt a Xew Ordinance.
Mr. Howe and Mr. McLean then ar
gued for a new ordinance providing
that separate awards could be made,
nd offered this as an amendment to
Mr. Williams' motion that Nichols &
Fahey be given the entire award. The
amendment was lost and the motion
revalled.
A resolution will now go from the
committee to councils providing that
Nichols & Fahey be given the contract,
the cost of headers to be included In
the price for paving and grading. Be
fore adjournment the commoners ex
pressed the opinion that their body will
refuse to adopt the committee's action,
and consequently the matter will re
main In statu quo until either select or
common council changes Its mind or a
new ordinance Is substituted.
