Scrantoa Board of TruJo Pusses Strung
Ucsolutions Protesting Against the
. Passage of llous Uill .No. 2 I'J.
A special meeting of the members of
the board of trade was held laat even
ing for the purpose of protesting
against that portion of house bill No.
239 so far as it applied to the taxing of
municipal corporations. Captain W.
A. May presided and a report of the
manufactures committee was read
by Secretary D. B-. Atherton, after
which the recommendations of the
committee were supported by J. A.
Lansing, II. E. Paine and J. H. Kem
merer. The following resolutions were
then unanimously adopted:
The Srranton board of trade, as repre
senting the manufacturing Interests of the
city of Srranton, hereby enter their pro
test against the passage of house bill No.
2: so far as It applies to the taxation of
manufacturing corporations.
The development of Pennsylvania in
general, and the northeastern portion in
particular. Is due to the encouragement
offered under Its laws to manufacturing
Industries. We deem It unwise to arrest
this development and progress in any re
spect. Any act which tends, as this act
does," to unjustly discriminate as between
Individuals and an aggregation of Indi
viduals (which Is all that constitutes a
corporation! engaged In the same class
of business. Is against public policy und
will render inadvisable and Impossible
such combinations of capital os are neces
sary to carry on and develop large indus
tries, and consequently to develop the
property of the whole state.
This act also places on such corpora
tions the burden of not only paying Inter
est for the use of capital received from
residents of other states and represented
by its bonds, but also Imposes a tax upon
that same capital which must be paid
directly by the corporations.
Keaolved, That a copy of this action be
forwarded to the members of the legisla
ture from Lackawanna county.

liuuors, us provided for under the laws
of the commonwealth, are passed upon.
Judges Archbuld, llunster and Kd-
wards were on the bench and disposed
of the petitions In alphabetical order.
The list of retailers in Archlmld bor
ough were the first to receive consider
ation. As soon us the name of an ap
plicant was read, his attorney would
stute to the court whether or not the
place hud been licensed last year. If
It hud been, court would pass to the
next name, unless a remonstrance had
been tiled. Then tin' case would be ar
gued and the testimony of witnesses on
both sides heard. In cuses where li
censes were usKeii for me ursi mm-.
the attorney representing the appli
cant would plead to the court me rea
sons on which the privilege for selling
luiuor was asked.
Remonstrances were tiled against the
applications of every one desiring a
license at the ltldge In Archbuld bor
ough. Last year there were six licensed
drain shops there and now the number
petitioning has been increased to ten.
Pinter's Petition Opposed.
M. D. Potter's petltioli for a license
In ltcntoii township was represented
by Attorneys John P. Kelley and V. W.
Hay lor. The linn of llulslander & Vos
buig appeared for the remonstrants.
The charges against Potter were that
he sold lluuor on election day. Is given
to using very profane language, and
among 'his dally customers are two
habitual topers. Several witnesses
gave testimony of the good character
of Potter.
A. M. Robinson's application for a
hotel license in the First ward of Hlake
Iv borough was opposed with a remon
strance represented by Attorney John
C. MeAskle. Attorney E. C. New
comb urged the court to grant the li
cense. Attorney J. Alton Davis appeared tor
M. l. Betts. of Peckvllle. A letter
was read from Judge tfittser. of Tunk
hannock. In which Betts was recom
mended as a highly moral man and had
many years of experience in the hotel
business. Mr. MeAskle. for the remon
strants, alleged that Doud's hotel, at
Peckvllle. is sutllclent to accommodate
the traveling public. Attorney H. L.
Taylor asked for a license for Charles
Allen, a new house on Ninth street,
Blakely. Mr. MeAskle opposed it on
the plea that the place was not neces-s;ii-v.
No remonstrances were filed
tltions for licenses in
either Carbondale city or town.
Not a Kit Person, 'Tis Said.
The petition of Joseph Sankiewicz, of
Dickson, was the last one heard before
noon. He wants a license for the first
time. The residents adjacent to the lo
cation he proposes to occupy compiaiu
that he is not tit to run a legalized rum
shop. and. moreover, that his place Is
not a. necessity.
Attorney W. V. Lathrope askea tne
permission of oourt to fix a time' for
the hearing of the remonstrances
against the applications In the Thir
teenth ward. Accordingly, court speci
fied that today would be specially set
aoart fur the hearing of these cases,
The remonstrances against petitions
from Dickson City were next Heard.
C. H. Uallagner wants a ucense iu
conduct a hotel in that district and
Attorney A. J. Colborn was his repre
sentative. Mr. Lathrope represented
the remonstrants. William H. Rich
mond is the moving Impulse against
the saloon In Dickson.
Dunmore borough was the next on
the list. John Powell, a blav, was tne
first one whose license was objejeteu
to, principally on the ground that the
place Is not. a necessity. Attorney m.
r. McDonald appeared for a license
for Patrick Melody for a hotel In John
son's Patch. In Jthe South ward of
Dunmore. Attorney It. A. Zimmer
man spoke against granting the li
cense because it Is a new house and
not a necessity. Mr. Zimmerman said
that the late Judge Connolly once re
marked that there was no more need
r.f a licensed saloon at jonnBon s
Patch than an Ice house at the North
pole. .
Different Kind of .Melody.
Attorney McDonald argued that the
Scranton Stove works are Hltuated
there a'nd there are other Industries,
and therefore a hotel is necessary.
Judge Kdwards wanted to know If
t.iiiv was the same man who had
been before court charged with violat
ing the liquor law. Melody came for
ward and denied the Impeachment
He said It was another Melody.
P. J. Lvnott wants a license at the
corner of Adams avenue and Larch
street. Mr. Taylor was his attorney.
Mr. Zimmerman opposed the petition,
Btatlng to the court that Lynott
means to transfer the license to an
other man.
When Fell township was reached the
name of Joseph Gluck was called out
A Hweetilrur remonstrance was tiled
ncainst him. but no attorney repre
sented the objectors. Ex-Judge W. If
Stanton spoke for Uluck. In the re-rrw.rwtrnm-e
there Is a charge that
brawls and riots were frequently car
ried on at (Jluck'B place. Mf. Stanton
mi lil that the vandals who broke
filuck's windows were hired to do It by
the proprietor of a rival establishment
The rulllanH, Air. Stanton said, are
now repenting their folly In the county
Jail.
Sold Without Permission.
S. T. O'Nell, of Itlchmbndule, was
rcuresented by Attorney John P. Kel
ly. On cross-examination by Mr. La
thrope, Mr. O'Nell admitted that he
sold wine nnd whisky last year with
out a license. Mr. Kelly asked th
permission of court to withdraw the
petition, which was allowed.
William J. Dunn, of lilchmondale,
who desires to sell liquor for a living,
Is applying for the first time for a li
cense. Attorney John M. Harris Inter
ceded to the court for Dunn 'and Attor
ney Lathrope remonstrated Against
granting the license ,for the reason
that the place Is not a necessity. Major
Everett Warren appeared for a license
for Stephen Heresch, who wants to
run a hotel on Main street In the War
ren trnct In the upper end of Fell
township and only a short distance
below Forest City. Mr. Lathrope op
posed the license on the ground that
the place Is not a necessity. He also
opposed the applications of Peter J.
Healcy and John Banks for bottler's
licenses.
The application of J. H. Curran for
a hot?l license In Fell township was
opposed by Mr. Lathrope and urged
by City Solicitor R. D. Stuart, of Car
bondale. The churge against Curran
Is that he Is his own best customer.
Two witnesses swore they saw Ourrun
frequently drunk, and that he was
drunk as usual yesterday.
Kciuonstranee Against Pler.
The last petition heard yesterday
against which there was a remon
strance filed was Lewis Plzer's for a
hotel In Jertnyn. Finer proposes to
sell liquor In a building on Main street,
formerly occupied by Coul Operator
John Jermyn. Attorneys J. Alton
Davis and Taylor & Lewis appeared
for the petitioner and Attorney C. S.
Woodruff for the remonstrants. The
main reason and the only, one ad
vanced against the petition was that
five of the fourteen men Who signed
Plzer's application do not reside In the
same ward he does.
Mr. Davis, for the petitioner, sub
mitted the act of assembly to court.
The act roads that applications must
be signed by citizens residing within
the ward, borough or township. Mr.
Davis argued that the meaning of the
act did not make wards apply to bor
oughs, only to cities; that ns long as
the signer lived within the oorougn it
was sutllclent. Court then adjourned
until o'clock this morning.
DEATH WAS NATURAL.
Silas Holies, of Oak Hill, Not Hurried Off,
the Jury Says.
Chemist Charles Koempel was pres
ent at the meeting of the coroner's Jury
last night and explained that he had
made a chemical analysis of the con
tents of the stomach of Silas Belles, of
Oak Hill. Mr. Koempel stated that be
first made a test to discover uny traces
of arsenic and found none, then looked
for strychnine, after that for poisoning
by atropla. He found none of these
drugs. But he found that there were
very minute truces of morphine; not
e ough, however, to urouse even a sus-
p clon thut the powder was the cause
of death.
Mr. Koempel suld that the only poison
which would not linger lu the stomach,
but which would be utmost Instantly
absorbed, Is hydrocyanic acid. But the
presence of this poison In the system
could be Instantly detected by the ex
halation from the body.
The Jury didiberated after hearing
the report of the chemist and rendered
a verdict that the death of Belles was
due to natural causes.
CLEANING VV THE STREETS.
Removing the Winter's Accumulation of
Ice and Snow.
Streets In the central part of the city
are beginning to assume their normal
condition. The last blizzard und the
following isevere weather left great
mounds of ice and snow along all the
streets, adjacent to the gutters, and
In some instances even the gutters were
choked, which caused water to lodge
and increase the quantity of Ice.
For the lust week workmen under the
direction of the street commissioner,
have been engaged removing this ac
cumulation of ice with such good suc
cess that nearly all of the streets In the
central part of the city. as well as tne
Important thoroughfares In the mib
burbs are again passable for their full
width.

HAS FINISHED US WORK
Committee Reduces Appropriation
Ordinunce to Proper Size.
WHERE THE KNIFE WAS USED
The $5,000 Asked for the Opening of
Wyoming Avenue Stricken Out-He-arrangement
of the Appropria
tion for Nay Aug Park.
After having already held five meet
ings, the estimates committee of coun
cils lust night succeeded In bringing
the) estlmuted city expenditures for
the fiscal year 18D5 to within $538,64 of
the revenue estimated by the city con
troller. The estimated revenue Is $275,
89!), which does not Include $87,320 for
special purposes und the Interest and
sinking fund. By a rising vote the
committee, after completing its labors,
pledged Itself to support Its slx-tlme
amended report which will be made to
the select brunch tonight. The excess
of 538.tl4 will be offset by a resolution
directing the city controller to trans
fer certain 1804 balances.
One of the most important features
of the lluul meeting of the committee
wus Its business-like proceeding and
an absence of quibbling. This Is In a
meusuru accounted for by the fuel that
most of the members had, previous to
the session, urrlved ut an understand
ing of what should be done. The first
live meetings hud been conspicuous
chiefly fur debates, mlstakeB und get
ting mixed.
Park Appropriation Chunged.
In the street commissioner's depart
ment the Item fur repairs of bridges
and culverts was reduced from $4,000 to
$3,700; the maintaining of lire depart
ment horses was Increased $420.
Mr. Williams, the select councilman
from the Fifth wurd, received unani
mous support In Ills udvocacy of a
change In the Nay Aug park appropria
tion and which was suggested editorial
ly In yesterday's Tribune. This de
partment had been amended to contain
$000 for a policeman, and $2,000 for la
bor. Mr. Williams' motion prevailed
to reduce .the labor Item to $1,600 and
appropriate $050 for landscape engineer
ing. It was contended that the labor
appropriation would not have been ap
plicable without definite landscape
plans.
Several large Improvement Items
were stricken out us follows: $3,200 for
a culvert over Stafford Meadow brook,
on F.lm street; $5,000 for opening Wyom
ing avenue, between Phelps street and
Ash street; $2,000 for repairing Palm
street, between Cedar and Plttston ave
nues. Eleven electric lights, at $91.25 each,
for specified localities In Bellevue, at a
total cost of $1,003.75, were stricken out
nnd an appropriation of $305 made for
four lights to be located according to
a resolution to be Introduced In coun
cils. The Seventeenth ward appropriation
for street repairs, which ut a previous
meeting hud been reduced from $1,000 to
$000, was restored.
Did Not Favor Amendments.
An amendment offered by Mr. Durr,
of the Eighth ward, thut $3,000 be ap
propriated for paving Penn avenue, be
tween Lackawanna avenue and Spruce
street, was laid on the table. Mr.
Lauer's motion that the pole tax be ap
plied to the opening of Wyoming ave
nue, between Phelps und Ash streets
was lost.
The 1894 amendment wus duplicated
which provides that the city controller
shall not merge 1895 specific improve
ment appropriations unless the work Is
completed; that unexpended balances
for general Items und departments shall
be carried forward to the correspond
ing account for 1S95; appropriating out
standing claims, not otherwise provid
ed for, to general incidentals and Judg
ments for 1895; transferring unexpend
ed balances on appropriations to gen
eral incidental and Judgment fund for
IS 95.
NOT ONE OF THE GANG.
Therefore the Sentence Imposed on
Joseph (irlmes Was Kcvokcd.
Joseph Grimes, the Bellevue youth
who was arrested Saturday night for
lighting and In whose pocket was found
u black Jack, wus yesterday relcused
from the central police station.
He was supposed to be one of the fam
ous "dead line" gang and a Sentence of
$25 or thirty dnys In Jail hud been Im
posed upon him. It wus later ascer
tained that Grimes was not one of the
gang and Ben-tence was remitted.
AFTER THE HONEYMOON.
Mrs. Wlllluin l eenlo Left Her Hut-hund
and Did Not Return.
William Feenle yesterdny began pro
ceedings to secure a divorce from Amy
Frances Feenle.
The libel In the ense was filed by At
torney John M. Harris with Prothono
tury Pryor and sets forth that the
couple were married on May 111, 1887.
They lived together until Dec. 29 of the
same year, when Mrs. Feenle left her
