BIG SUIT FOR WATER RENT
Gas
and Water Company Against
L. I. and C. Company.
IT IS BEFORE JUDGE GUXSTEK
Several Days Will Be Required to Try the
Casc-juda'e II. M." .MeCluro Is
Holding Court in No. 3
This Week.
Court room No. 1 was well filled yes
terday wltli'lriteYe'st'ed listeners' to the
Important assumpsit suit of the Scran
,ton Gas and Water company against
Jthe Lackawanna Iron and Coal com
pany,, which was called for trial before
Judge Gunster. The suit Involves a
sum of 11)1,941.60, claimed as water rent
for the consumption of water by the de
fendants, which, 11, Is alleged, they were
not entitled to according to the terms
of the contract between the Gas and
Water company and the Steel company.
It will be' remembered that last Aug
ust the Steel company brought an In
junction piocteding against the Watar
company, the latter, It is claimed, hav
ing threatened to shut off the water, if
the amount in dispute was not paid.
Both sides came to an amicable ad
justment of the difficulty by an agree
ment to continue the matter. In obey
ance until the suit; which was opened
yesterday; was settled.
No trouble was found In selecting a
Jury, and Attorney Lemuel Amerman
opened for the plaintiff. He was as
sisted In thi case by Attorney I. H.
Hums. W. W. Scranton, president of
the Gas and Water company, sat beside
them. General Manager McKlnney and
Master Mechanic Henry AVehrum, re
presenting the defendant Steel com
pany, occupied seats Inside the bar rail
Just behind the defendant's table. At
torneys Joseph O'Brien, of this city,
John G. Johnston, of Philadelphia; M.
E. Ol instead, of Harrlsburg, and Hamll
ton Wallace, of New York, conducted
the case for the defendant.
On Aug. 31, 1874, a contract was made
by the Water company with the defend-
ts, the latter agreeing to pay $400 a
onth. On Feb. 10, 188a, another con
act was made, a yearly one, and the
rms were that an annual rental of
1,000 was agreed to as the price of
iter supplied, "for steam, lire-
rant, hydraulic, store and dwelling
ses, and for no other purposes."
Testimony of President Scranton.
The testimony of AV. W. Scranton,
who waL on the stand when coui't ad
journed, covers the case. He has been
president of the water company since
INTO. He had been connected with the
Lackawanna Iron and Coal company,
then operating the North works and
blast furnaces, for six years prior to
1S80. In that year he left the employ of
the Iron and Coal company and, with
others, built the Scranton Steel mills,
of which he was general manager, for
seven or eight years, or rather from
the year that the mills were first oper
ated, until the Scranton Steel company
and the Lackawanna Iron and Coal
company became consolidated and
formed the Scranton Iron ' and Steel
company, which took effect In March,
1891.
Mr. Scranton discovered soon after
ward when he examined the supply
pipes leading to the mills, that water
was being used contrary to the agree
ment In the contract, that to put In
figures the amount of water consumed
which was not paid for, approximated
from three to four hundred thousand
gallons of water a day. This water
used against the terms of the contract
was used for miscellaneous purposes,
for cooling, condensing, boshes and
tuyers.
He Immediately notified General
Manager E. S. Moffat and simulta
neously sent In a bill of $15,000 at the
rate of $1,500 a year for ten years. The
bills were not paid, nor were subsequent
bills sent in for water consumed by the
Lackawanna Iron and Steel company.
. By. the agreement made in 1881 the
Iron and Coal company consented to
build a reservoir and pump water from
the river to be used in the extra con
sumption for which the water company
is now suing to recover rent.
An Interesting Exhibit.
A miniature facsimile of the water
pipes leading from the. mills to the
reservoir on South Washington avenue
was exhibited In court. It showed the

pipes of the Lackawanna Iron and Conl
company und those of the' Gas and
Water company. The pipes of the lat
ter were painted white and of. the for
mer blue. Cross sections of pipe show
ing wliere the two had been connected
were painted black. Mr. Scranton ex
plained that this arrangement was a
correct diagram of the pipes as they
actually are. Master Mechanic Nlebell
was put on the stand and testllled that
he was familiar with the pipes and that
the diagram shown In court was cor
rect. He admitted that the connections
were there and that water could at any
time be drawn from the city pipes Into
the reservoir pipes, the latter being ex
pected to feed the channels that were
meant to provide for the extra water to
the' mills.
Before Mr. Scranton was called there
were several workmen who testified to
the way water was used at the different
parts of the mills. Attorney Johnson,
of Philadelphia, who conducted the
cross-examination, supplied the court
with amusement. He had Beveral of
the witnesses tell what kind of water
arid' now' much. ''Was it' Ice water,"
he asked one, "you. saw coming from
the, fii;e-hyd)'ant; or maybe It was fire
water, was It, eh?"
The witnesses who were employes and
not endowed with a great amount of
self-control were sometimes provoklng
ly funny In their answers. Mr. Scran
ton was on the stand at adjournment.
The case Is likely to occupy the whole
week.
Before Judge Archbuld.
In court room No. 2 before Judge
Archbald the first case called was that
of P. M. Molllt and others against J. W.
and Elizabeth Kllpatrlck. It was an
ejectment suit and Uy mutual agree
ment a Jury was drawn and a verdict
rendered for the defendant. .
The next case before Judge'Archbald
was another ejectment suit Involving
the possession of thlrty-Blx acres of land
In Ransom township. James M. Ever
hart Is plaintiff and G. Fi Nesbltt and
G. Mortimer Lewis are defendants. At
torneys W. W. WatBon, ex-Judge Jes
sup, and H. M. Streeter, appeared for
the plalirtlff and Attorneys E. N. Wll
lard and ex-Judge H. A. Knapp for the
defendant. .
In 1882 taxes were assessed against
the thlrty-tflx acres of land, now In the
suit, and the tax thereon was not paid.
The plaintiff came Into possession of the
land through a treasurer's sale, but the
defendants came along and forcibly de
terred him from assuming ownership, as
It Is alleged. The suit is brought to
stat him and the day was taken up with
the introduction of books of assessors
and records of court to prove a title to
the land. This case will take up at
least today and likely tomorrow.
Judge McClure Holding Court.
In the arbitration room, court No. 3,
Judge H. M. McClure presided, and
two cases of trivial character were dis
posed of. An appeal suit with W. S.
Reed as plaintiff and J. S. Miller as de
fendant was closed with very little testi
mony and the Jury returned with a ver
dict In favor of the plaintiff for $1!23.
Another appeal suit of $16 was called
before Judge McClure, that of Gus Zlm
mer, plaintiff, and Frank Passek, de
fendant. Passek admitted that he owed
the plaintiff $4.50, but that amount he
said was counterbalanced 'by thefts of
lumber, etc., from the property. Passek
engaged Zlmnicr to watch the house at
night while It was not tenanted for the
space of nine nights at the rate of 50
cents a night. That is all Passek said
he was bound to pay, Zlmmer said he
was also hired to clean up the place and
altogether he earned $16. The case went
to the Jury at 4 o'clock and that was the
last one for the day.

A VICTORY FOR PASKOLA,
It Receives the Official Endorsement
of Eminent Experts and. a Jury
of Representative Citizen.
The suit brought by Ohio's food com
missioner against a Cincinnati drug
gist for selling Paskola on the ground
that it was nothing but glucose, result
ed in a great victory for Paskola and a
verdict against the state.
During the course of the trial Pro
fessor Shaller, of the University of Cin
cinnati, testified that Paskola was not
glucose, and even If It was, It would
be harmless., He also bore witness to
Its activity as a digestive agent.
Professor William Dlckore, of the
Miami college, testified to the same
facts. So did Professor Schmidt, the
chemist of the board of health; Profes
sor William Hoffman and others.
A practical test was made In court,
showing the digestive action of Pas
kola on eggs and meats of various
kinds, whereas glucose under precisely
the same conditions produced no effect
whatever.
This test but confirmed the experts'
statements that proved Paskola to be
of great value In Indigestion and wast
ing diseases.
This verdict disposes of the malicious
attack that has been made against Pas
kola by interested rivals, and suits have
now bee brought against the proprie
tors of a well known emulsion of cod
liver oil for having given wide circula
tion to a false formula and other mis
representations regarding It.
The animus of this attack will be the
better understood when it Is stated that
Paskola Is being largely used in the
place of cod liver oil.
