OPPOSED TO DECKELN1CK
Protest That us Made in License
Court Against His Hotel. '
VIOLATION OP LAW CHARGED
Cuscs from tho Thirteenth Ward tp for
Consideration Stories Told About Mr.
Ultiek, of Fell Township-Alleged
Tbut l'oker la Pluyed There.
After court opened yesterday morn
ing the first remonstrance argued was
against the application of J. K. Kd
wards for a bottler's license In the
fourth ward. The charges ugalnst
him were that he sold beer without a
license und also disposed of It by the
barrel.
Attorney E. H. House advocated the
cause of the remonstrants against the
petition of William Deckelnlck for u
license. This Is the pluce that aroused
so much opposition from the pastor und
congregation of St. John's German
Catholic church last year. It was al
leged that Deckelnlck violated the law
during the past year by selling liquor
on election day and supplying It to
young men under uge.
William Lungau said he bought and
drank beer ut Decljelnlck's lust election
du,y und he was an eyo witness to n
disgraceful occurrence on the same oc
casion. Deckelnlck came from behind
his bar and ejected a drunken man
from the saloon und he applied his
boots to accelerate the poora fellow's
depurture. Mr. Deckelnlck replied to
the charge that liquor vus sold by him
on election duy.
He said his wife made the sale Inno
cently and he did not know she hud
the place opened; but as soon as he
found it out he locked the door and
made no more sales that duy. He never
sold any liquor to minors. Mrs. Deck
elnlck substantiated her liege lord's
statements and many witnesses Bwore
that the place was conducted the past
year uccordlng to law and order.
There were no startling features In
the applications from the Sixth or
Seventh ward. Judge Ounstur wished
to be Informed concerning a midnight
quarrel at W. J. Robb's Crystal Palace
on Lackawanna avenue about a year
ago. Xo remonstrances were filed from
the Ninth wurd. The application of
James F. Kearney for a new house on
Jackson street was opposed. So was
that of Joseph T. Hyde, of Olive street.
The Eleventh and Twelfth wards wore
passed by without any comment, and
then came the strongest opposition of
he term against the applications in the
Thirteenth ward. Colonel F. L. Hitch
cock and Attorney W. V. Lathrope
represented the remonstrants.
Tnlrtecnth WarJ Cases.
The first case heard was F. G. Ilnr-
lck's, who asks for a renewal of his
bottler's license. Attorney J. Elliot
Koss represented him. The testimony
of John Hughes was offered to show
that Rarlck assaulted him and was
drunk at the time. Attorney C. S.
Woodruff, Rev. W. J. Ford, Attorney
McAskle, J. H. Rlttenhouse, swore that
the establishment Is not a necessity.
Mr. Rarlck testified that his place has
been licensed for a number of years.
The application of Martin Bird for a
new house on Xorth Washington ave
nue, near the county Jail, was next op
posed. It was represented by Mr. Ross
tnd opposed by Mr. Lathrope. Mr.
Ross told a touching story about how
two lone women who hud taken pussuge
on a Green Ridge car that got snow
bound near the Jail were accommodated
with shelter at Bird's place. Mr. La
thrope suggested that Mr. Bird's es
tablishment might be right convenient
for the Jail birds.
The case of James J. Kelley. of 1S07
Von Storch avenue, was next consid
ered. His application was attacked be
cause It Is alleged that It Is not proper
ly conducted.
In the afternoon the remonstrance
against renewing the license of John
Horn was taken up. George S. Horn
was attorney for tho petitioner. The
allegations made against the applicant
were that he or his bartender sold
liquor to boys under age a number of
times, and that a drunken tailor and
drunken shoemaker Hpend most of
their time and a good part of their
scant earnings at Mr. Horn's bar. All
of this he denied stoutly.
Nichols Is a Cripple,
O. J. Nichols applied for a restaurant
license. His attorney, Mr. Zimmer
man, argued that the petition Is a crip
ple. Colonel Hitchcock replied that
Nichols should not be allowed to make
cripples of other people.
The application of Michael McAndrew
for a bottler's license on Von Storch
avenue was the last one heard from
the Thtlrteenth ward.
When the Thirteenth wurd cases were
disposed of n hearing was resumed In
the petition of Joseph Gluok, of Fell
township.
Attorney John P. Kelly and ex-Judiro
Stanton appeared for Mr. Gluck, and
Mr. Zimmerman for the remonstrants.
William Pock swore that he saw gam
bling going on In Gluck's place one
night last Februury, The date was
somewhere around the fifth of the
month nml It was on Suturday night.
The game extended Into Sunday
morning. Peck thought the men were
playing poker, but he does not know
enough about the Amerlcun game of
draw to be positive. On cross-examination
Peck admitted to the questions
of Mr. Kelly that ho had been In the
tolls himself at various times for luw
breaking.
Case of Joseph ril lick.
Cluck was sworn and denied that he
sold Intoxicants on Sunduy or to
minors, or that he allowed gambling
to go on at his place. Other witnesses
were sworn who supported tlid good
reputation of Gluck's dram shop. No
remonstrances were filed against any of
the applications In the Fourteenth
ward
In the Fifteenth ward there was no
opposition to the old houses and two
new houses applied for charters to sell
drink. Tho proprietors are Stephen
Flannghan, on Luzerne street, and
Hopkln L. Wllllums, on South Main
avenue. No remonstrances were filed
against them. .Court then passed to the
Sixteenth ward. One new petition was
presented In the Seventeenth ward; one
In tho Eighteenth.
In none of these was there any oppo
sltlon. When the Nineteenth ward was
reached Judge Archbald remarked that
out of nine licenses granted lust year,
seven were revoked because they were
not taken out; and In the Twentieth
ward. there was a similar state of af
fairs. Patrick Corcoran was granted
a license lust year, but he did not troti
ble about taking It out. , "What Is the
usa of granting a license to this man,"
said Judge Archbald, "when he does
not appear In court and take his license
out.1
There were no remonstrances In the
Twenty-first ward, nor any new appll
cations. .South Ablngton township was
quickly passed without objection.
Taylor borough was next reached,
When the application of Frank Mil
marnich was reached Attorney Charles
L. Huwley opposed the license in the
name of a large and representative
number of citizens of Taylor und the
pastors and boards of officers of three
churches.
It Is Near a Church.
The location of the hotel Is adjacent
to the Welsh Buptlst church. Assist
ant District Attorney Harris appeared
for the license. The testimony of Dr.
J. L. GrllfithH, Grltllth Owens, and Hev.
H. H. Harris was heard.
They all avowed that It would be In
jurious to the well being and peace of
the community If Milinarnlch would be
allowed to sell liquor. The hearing will
be resumed today.

Paul Potter's dramatization of George
Du Maurler's novel, "Trilby," was given
Its first presentation at the Park thea
ter, Boston, Monday night before a very
large audience. .Many of tho prominent
personages In the cast ure well known to
Scranton theater goers. Svengoll, is Im
personated by Wilton Lackuye, who en
acted the title rolu In "Jim the Penman"
with tho Palmer Stock company here last
season. Ho ulso uppeured In this city us

Virginia. Harned Is Trilby und she will be
remembered for her brilliant interpolation
of the role of Mrs. Erylnne In "Lady

Oreko. and Burr Mcintosh, another Scran
ton favorite. Is Taffy, the big English
painter who loves Trilby no less fervent
ly than Little mine, line critic snys oi
the piTformiinco und play: "Mr. Potter's
dramatization Is eminently successful In
two ways; It not only presents a play
which Is perfectly comprehensible and ef
fective In Itself, and which would be a
powerful drama If Du Maurler's novel
hud never Been light, but he also suc
ceeded In presenting those familiar with
the book un uceiiratc and striking dra
matic picture of Its sentiment and a terse
and vigorous stago treatniont of Its plot.
Kor Intensity Mr. Luckaye's Svengull
nasllv took the lead. Few more vivid
character Impersonations have been given
to the stage than that of the half-eruzed,
anlmallsed musician. The uncnnnlness
of the guzo that followed his subject
Trilby was almost supernatural In Its
horror-compelling force, and the deuth
rena wus given with an Intensity almost
rmlnful. Miss Harned completely filled
the eve of the admirer of Trilby In per
sonnl appearance, and she played tho
character with delightful charm and most
artistic finish."

SOMEONE YELLED POLICE"
"Cyclone" Kate and Maggie Mont
gomery Had a Little Argument.
MAGGIE WANTED HER DKESS
She Got It After Throwing a Lighted
Lump at tbo "Cyclone's" lleud-Mixed
Ale Had .Something to Do with It.
"Cyclone" (iocs to Jail.
Maggie Montgomery was discharged
from Jail a few duys ago only to find
that during her Imprisonment "her
Tom" (that's what she called him) had
transferred his affections to Kute Boy
Ian, bettor known as "Cyclone," and
who enjoys the distinction of having
been given the first business ride In the
police patrol wagon. These facts had
a direct bearing on the tempest-ln-a-teapot
sort of a time In Mistress Mag
gie's house on Railroad avenue early
yesterday morning.
Her return from the stone-walled
Structure on Washington avenue to the
freedom of city life was being celebrat
ed by "Cyclone," Mistress Maggie and
Tom and several other male spirits.
Mixed ale and strong tobacco were
two conspicuous mediums of the cele
brat Ion.
"You're lookln' pule, Maggie," said
the "Cyclone."
".Me complexshun Is no business of
yours, Mistress Uoylan."
No Cuuse for Worry In'.
"You hev no cause for worryln' over
alther your looks or your dress," replied
the whirlwind.
"No, but I shall bo worryln' over the
dress you have on. Cyclone, for, by me
faith, I belave that sunie belongs
me."
"You're a liar, Mistress Maggie."
"You're two av thlm, Cyclone Kate."
ltlff bung cdackety-clack and the
room was soon a mixture of arms
chulrs, legs, mixed ale and all sorts of
things. Mistress Maggie seized the
lamp und threw It so true and violently
that the "Cyclone" tripped over a
stool. Before she could recover, Mis
tress 'Maggie pounced upon her, loos

appeared through a rear window, and
when Patrolmen Feeney and I. Jones
burst In the door the two vlrugos were
havlng lt out in beautiful fashion.
She Got the Dress.
"Your a hussy," said the "Cyclone'
as they were being placed In the patrol
wagon.
"I've got me dress, an' you haven't
got me Tom," was the reply.
Police Surgeon Fulton was called to
attend Mistress Maggie In the centra
station house about 9 o'clock In the
morning. Her condition was found to
be delicate and she was hurried away
to Railroad avenue and her Tom.
The "Cyclone" got thirty days.
HE CRIED TOR HELP.
Loft us, a Supposed llurglur. Was Look
ing for a Doctor.
While trying to llnd the residence of
a doctor In the North End early yester
day morning, Anthony Loftus entered
two houses by mistake and was thrown
out of one and tired upon by the occu
pants of another. The neighborhood
was thrown Into un uproar and quiet
was restored by the police.
Mrs. Michael Loftus, of the High
works ,had been taken seriously 111, and
her father-in-law, Anthony Loftus,
went to cull Dr. H. W. Lackey, of Main
avenue. He misunderstood the dlrec
Hons given him by a passer-by on the
square and went to the double dwell
ing In the rear of the doctor's house,
He entered the front door of the house
occupied by Hurry Lee.
Mr. Lee heard a noise, nrose from his
bed and hurried downstairs. Not get
ting a satisfactory explanation from
Mr. Loftus, he threw him out with but
little formality or gentleness.
Mr. Loftus made another mistake by
trying the door of the house adjoining
which led Mr. Lee to think he was deal
Ing with a burglar. He hurried for hi
revolver und fired several shots nt the
by this time, completely mixed Loftus
who shouted lustily for help. Window
were hastily thrown open and the
neighborhood was soon all excitement
Two policemen responded to the crle
and after several minutes of explana
Hons the misunderstanding of all par
