CITY OFFICERS ACCUSED
Honesty of the Supply Committee of
the Hoard of Control Questioned.
CHARGES ARE TO BE SIFTED
W. II. Withers Claims to Hnvo Witnesses
to Charges Made In an Open Let
. tcr-John Bcnorc 4 Son to
Build No. 10 School.
An Intimation, If not an open charge
of corruption, was made at lust night's
meeting of the board of control against
Its supply committee. The accusation
is made by W. H. Withers, of the puper
company of that name, and his letter
resulted In the appointment of a spec
ial committee to investigate the
eliurges.
The details of the charges appear In
the following letter, which was read by
the secretary:
Scranton, Pa., Oct. 25, 1834.
E. D. Fellows, Secretary Scranton
School Board:
Dear Sir I desire the following com
munication laid before your board for
what action they desire to take on the
mutter.
When the order for tablets was given lo
Reynolds Bios, it was distinctly given for
tablets cut 24 x 36, 40-pound paper. When
some $90 more than my bid was paid for
them It was attributed to Ignorance on the
part of the committee. Mr. Reynolds
stated to me in the presence of witnesses
that he proposed to furnish you 40
pound paper. The tablets he Is delivering
to you are not 40-pound, not even 35-pounl,
but It Is 33-pound paper.
Now, then. If the school board de
sires to Investigate my churges I am will
ing to come forward at any time, but It
Is not right to the taxpayers of the city of
Scranton that the BUpply committee uf
your school board should be run by Rey
nolds Bros, or any one elBe. Let them
live up to their contract or give the orders
to responsible parties who will do so, as
they have never yet lived up to the con
tract In furnishing you tablets.
Trusting that this letter will be read
before the Scranton school board, I cm
very respectfully yours,
W. H. Withers,
312 Penn Avenue.

THOMAS IS ENTERTAINING.
Convulsed a Large Audience at the Y. M
C. A. Hall.
One of the treats of the season was
given by Humorist John Thomas to
large audience at Young Men's Chris
tian Association hall last night. The
celebrated humorist convulsed his au
dience In his humorous recitals, partlcu'
larly "The Ladles "of the Flats," which
was encored, and In response he gave
a dfall permoit on "Old Mother Hub
bard." -'
Miss Salome Thomas sang the "Vooat
Walta," by Ardltl, and "Three Wishes,
by Plnsutl, the selections being of a high
standard and excellently rendered. The
cornet-solos by Albert Hopkins were
deservedly encored, as also were Miss
Annie Webster'i violin selections,
Linda dl Chamounix" and "Rhapsodle
Honsrolse."
The entire musical programme was of
refined nature and the numbers were
selected from the works of great com
posers and constituted an Ideal of a
good concert, while Mr. Thomas' odltles
would not offend the most particular.
THE MATTESONS EXPELLED.
They Are No Longer Members of the Ab-
inglon Baptist Assoclatlou-I'rococd-
ings Tukcn Yesterday.
At a regular meeting of the pastor's
conference of the Ablngton Baptist as
sociation held at the Penn Avenue
church yesterday morning, Rev. F. A.
Matteson, sr., and Rev. F. A. Matteson,
r.. of the Elmhurst Baptist church,
were expelled from the conference fur
alleged conduct unbecoming Chris
tian ministers.
The younger cleric has for some time
assisted his father In the pastorate of
the Elmhurst Baptist church, but owing
to difficulties the pastor was compellud
to resign. It Is stated that disclosures
followed which convinced the congre
gation the Mattesnns were unworthy
of the charge. The honesty of the
gentlemen was Impugned and It Is al
leged that they were known to deviate
from the truth. The majority of the
members of the church determined to
dispense with their services, and their
eloquence Is no longer heard in the
Baptist church of Elmhurst.
The ministers of the conference de
termined to Investigate Into the ante
cedents of the Mattesons und the result
was that yesterday the whole history
was unfolded. It was sufficient to cun-
Ince the members of the conference
that It was best that the relations of
the Mattesons with the conference
should be severed.
The subjects of the discussion wer;?
not present, but the members felt no
hesitation In taking the bold and un
usual step of expelling them.
At the same meeting Rev. A. il
Brown, Rev. T. J. Collins and Rev. A
E. Douglus presented plans of sermons,
which were discussed and commended
by the members present,
GOING TO THEIR HOMES.
Many of Bclcgutcs to State Convention
Left tho City Yesterday-Carry Kind
Hcmcmbranucs of the Electric City with
Them.
Many of the delegates who came to
Scranton to attend the annual state
convention of the Young Woman's
Christian association left by the early
trains yesterday morning, and but few
were In the city yesterday afternoon.
Among the prominent visitors, Mrs. H.
M. Boles, the state chairman, enter
tained Dr. and Mrs. Carter, of Wlll-
lamsport; Mrs. C. L. Burtener, of York,
who was elected to preside over the
convention; Mtas Phillips and Miss
Stack, of Philadelphia, and Miss Ryan,
of Willlamsport. Mrs. E. H. Ripple
also had several guests, Including Mrs,
Dr. Wood, of Lancaster; Mrs. Kruss, of
York; Miss Maynall, of Meadvllle, and
Miss Peck, of Factoryville. Rev. and
Mrs. Charles E. Robinson entertained
Professor Gllmore, of Rochester; Miss
Hays, of Pittsburg; Miss Eva A. Wal
lace, of Pittsburg; Miss M. E. Le Levre
and Miss Martin, of Lancaster. Mrs
E. P. Kingsbury entertained Miss Sara
Kirk and Mrs. Baugh, of West Chester,
Scranton never entertained a conven
tion more handsomely than this one.
Every hostess made her guests feel at
home, showing thus a graceful nnd
gracious courtesy, which can and does
reside only In cultured and refined
Christian hearts. Every guest has gone
to her home to sound the praises of the
city and Its generous and good people,
where there wa3 room and to spare for
all who came on the Invitation of the
Scranton association.
The programme was carried out In
full, and a great impetus must result
from the educative quality of the ad
dresses and the practical discussions
that filled the sessions. No warmer
welcome was given by any than that
by the ministers who helped by their
presence, their prayers, their hearty
greetings, their earnest sermons, and
most of all, by so cordially Inviting the
leading workers to speak In their pul
pits. No city in the union can boast of
a more cordial, cultured clergy than
that of the Electric City.
No International convention ever had
the audiences, session after session
that Inspired the speakers by their
numbers, at the late convention. The
state committee will show a far better
report next year than this, because of
the encouragement and financial sup
port which will enable It to carry out
Its plans for extension In schools, col
leges and cities.
Effected a Compromise.
Forty-five Italians crowded the office
of Aldeman Wright on Saturday to sus
tain their claim for wages against Con
tractors Fahey & Nicholas. The Ital
lans have been working at the Ridge,
Arch bald, and In calculating the time
sheets a discrepancy of a few days was
found. It was decided that the alder
man divide the time disputed, the con
tractors agreeing to pay the half of the
extra amount claimed by the men and
judgement was entered accordingly,
In Trouble About a Dog Again.
A search warrant was Issued by Al
derman Fltzslmmons at the Instance of
Thomas J. Nolan, who chnrged Hurry
DePew, of Dunmore, with theft of a
valuable hunting "dog. The case was
heard by the alderman yesterday, but
owing to the conflicting evidence the
case was dismissed. De Pew claimed to
have purchased the dog.
Christ's View of the Old Testament.
A meeting of the Methodist Episcopal
nastors of the city was held In the Elm
Park church yesterday morning, when
an excellent paper entitled, "Christ
View of the Old Testament," was read
by Rev. R. S. Jones, D. D., of Provl
dence, who responded to the special
Invitation of the members to address
them at the meeting.

in Common Fleas Court.
MRS. HEWITT MADE NO DEFENSE
Allowed Her Husband to Get a Divorce
by Dsfuult - Suit of C. I.. Rico
Against I Idcllty and Cusuulty
Compun'y on Trial.
The November term of common plens
court began yesterday morning and
cases were put on trlnl In the three
court rooms. Judge Archbald presided
In the main court room, Judge Peck, of
Towundn, In No. 2, and Judge Gunster
In No. 3. The divorce case of W. H.
Hewitt against Ella B. Hewitt was tho
first culled for trial before Judge Peck.
No appearunce was put In fur Mrs.
Hewitt and, after hearing evidence to
prove that she had been cruel to her
liusbund, a verdict In his favor was
taken. The Hewitts live at Park Place
In this city.
A verdict was also taken for the plain
tiff In the case of John Dempsey
against John Kosloskle. , Tho verdict
was for $K1.50, the full amount clulmed
by Dempsey for erecting a wall for the
defendant at Archbald. Mr. Kosloskl
did not put In an appearance to offer
any defence.
Before Judge Archbald the case of
Fred R. Jenkins against R. T. Howells
was tried. Jenkins worked for Huwells
and claims that wages amounting to
55 are due hlin. Huwells says that not
only dues he not owe Jenkins, but on the
contrary that gentleman owes him
$15.34.
Says lie Collected .Money.
It Is alleged by the defendant that
Jenkins, while In his employ, collected.
various sums of money which he did
not turn over and these are offered as
an offset. The case was given to the
Jury at 4.30. The plaintiff was repre
sented by Attorney George Peck and
the defendant by Attorney C. H. Soper,
In court room No. 3 before Judge
Gunster the case of C. L. Rice, of this
city, ugulnst the Fidelity nnd Casualty
company, of New York, was put on
trial. City Solicitor Torrey and Attor
ney W. W. Lnthrupc appeared for Mr,
Rice, und Wlllard & Warren for the
company.
The case Is brought to recover $25,000
damages the pluintlff claims he suf
fered by reason of his discharge as the
general agent of the defendant com
pany In November, 1883. Mr. Rice
claims he was established as a general
agent of the company in-certain coun
ties of Northeastern Pennsylvania by
Mr. Clapp, of New York, the company's
general agent for Pennsylvania; that
he went on and built up a large acci
dent Insurance business: that all of a
sudden he was discharged as such
agent and his business taken away
from him, In consequence of which he
suffered great loss.
The plaintiff's counsel got Into trou
ble at the very outstart In proving any
contract at all with the company and
finally, after considerable legal wrang
ling, counsel for plaintiff asked leave
of the court to amend their declaration
and get something more Into the case.
The court gave them until tomorrow
morning to present the proposed
amendment and the case went over.
The Jennings Case.
After the Rice case Is disposed of the
case of John O. Jennings against the
Lehigh Galley Railroad company will
be put on trial. Mr. Jennings sues -to
recover damages for the loss of his

Leidler was reported discontinued.

certs at 6 o'clock on Sunday evenings,

BAILEY WILL CONTEST.
That Is the Opinion Advanced by One of
His Attorneys.
There Is little doubt that James Bat
ley will contest Frank H. Cleinons'
right to fill the office of sheriff. Joseph
O'Brien, one of Mr. Bailey's attorneys,
when questioned ubout the matter yes
terday Uy a Tribune reporter, Bald:
'It has not been fully decided yet, but
everything Inclines Mr. Bailey tuwards
a contest, and I think It very probable
that he will take such steps."
