Cause J "Dick" Smith to Pummel tnoTwo
Polinskis.
A pall of water caused a little, blood
shed and much excitement early last
evening In Raymond court, near Lin
den street. As "Dick" Smith, a negro,
was entering his home a shower of
water fell upon him. Thy water came
from the second story, occupied by a
Hebrew family by the name of I'olln-
ski.
Smith rushed upstairs and proceeded
to pummel Mr. l'ollnskl, and then fin
ished the Job by chastising Mrs. l'olin-
skl. The I'ulinskls declared the full of
water accidental, which only increased
the anger of Smith. He continued to
thump tha I'ollnskl family, and th9
Polinskl family continued to yell for
help and the police. A crowd of sev
eral hundred persons .gathered und
Smith disappeared.
A warrant for his arrest was later
secured from A'derman Fitzsimmons.

Kx-Patrolman John Coslett was
written up in the Scranton Times one
day last summer, and upon information
furnished to Wallace G. Moser, a mem
ber of the Times' roportorial staff, by
an individual nanv?d John Hanlon, the
article was based.
Mr. Coalett brought suit against Han
lon, because tho charge asserted that
he had been guilty of accepting bribes
and was prone to use his "inllooence"
as "one of the finest" In furthering his
own seltish ends.
The case was marked down for trial

stae Hanlon wrote out an abject
apology and declared himself a fol

FOR BETTER CITY STREETS
Hoards of Trade of City Discuss tlic
Matter ut Length.
SOLllTTOK AOKKEY'S 'REMARKS
Ho Favors tho Abolition of tho Present
Method of JKxponding Ward Appropriations-Other
Speakers Heard
I'rom Resolution Adopted.
A well-attended meeting of the mem
bers of the various boardu of trade in
the city was held lust night at tho
Voting Men's Christian Association
hull, when Secretary O'Toole, of the
South Sldo bourd, explulned the object
of the meeting. The suburban bourds
felt that there was a great necessity
for iniprovlmr the streets, which wera
In a generally dilapidated condition.
The present H.vstem of street appropri
ation should also receive uttetillon.
T. Fellows Mason was elected chnlr
mim and called upon City Solicitor
Torrey to address the meeting, who
said that In using the ward appropri
ations there was no reason why coun
cils should direct their expenditure in
whatever manner they deemed bent.
The Htreet commissioner was the mere
creature of the councils and his olllce
was created by ordinance, and his du
ties speeilled In like manner, differing:
from the olllce of City Knglnecr, con
troller und others, which were created
by statute. The present method of re
pairing the ttreels was us unsatisfac
tory und Incompetent us could be de
vised, and the tendency was for every
representative to grasp u much us he
could for his own pecllon. If the ap
propriations, were dealt with In bulk
It would be found ample, as the amount
estimated for the present year was
Jlti.000. sufficient to keep all the public
streets In repair.
Itemed y in Hands of Voters.
In many wards It was illlliciilt to see
where the money Is expended, but the
remedy could be placed In the hands of
the voters directly. Next year one-half
of each branch of the councils would be
elected, and voters should make It a
condition of support that the success
ful candidates would use their Influence
In remedying the evil by ihanginif the
system. If this were done, he was of
opinion that the Improvement feature
of the question would be settled next
year.
Mr. Torrey then spoke on the ques
tion of damages, and contended that It
was nut rinlit for any municipality to
carry on any grading, ami ruin proper
ty without compensating the owner.
He elteM the case ;f St. Mary's church,
Pittsburg, where the edifice was left
fifteen feet above the street level and
no compensation paid: this led to the
amendment of the constitution In 1S7I.
In this city reckless grading had been
done unaccompanied by any effort to
make arrangements with property
owners, consequently the aggrieved
owners had for the past years been col
lecting damages for the reckless work.
On the other hand It was unfortunate
that one of two cross-grained "kickers"
could prevent the grading of any block.
C. G. Poland asked Mr. Torrey how
far the councils could assist in grading
streets, and was Informed that they
could assist to any extent they might
deem desirable.
Income Not Sufficient.
In reply to further questions Mr.
Torrey referred to the loss of city reve
nue owing to the fat that no mercan
tile tax was collected and no tax levied
n vehicles and street cars. In some
cities from $25 to $."0 were derived from
each street car, so tbat, consequently,
a large sum of money was lost to the
city annually, which could bo applied
to the repairs of the streets. Beneath
nil this, however, was the question of
the lowness of the assessment and the
small Income of the councils made It a
difficult task to make both' ends meet.
Captain W. A. May, president of the
central board of trade, said that the
whole difficulty was the small amount
raised from taxation. When he went
Into the councils he was under the Im
pression that they ere u, lot if rascals,
but when he left them he knew that they
were as square a lot of men ns could
be found. In most cases their hands
were tied, ns they had but a certain
amount of money to carry on the work.
This might lead to economy, but not to
much needed Improvements, and there
was no doubt that the c ity administra
tion was suffering from a paucity of
money, which effectively prevented Im
provements. He quoted a case In Dela
ware avenue. Green Ridge, where the
grading of the street had Increased the
value of a lot from fSOO to $2,000, tin 1
this ought to Induce property owners
to Improve the streets adjacent to their
property, If only from motives of self
interest. He advocated the taxing of
street cars and vehicles us a Just meas
ure. Mr. George's Red Hot Speech.
Augustus II. George, of North Re
becca avenue. In a speech which con
demned the wealthy Americans who
spent their money In foreign countries,
compared the grading of Jefferson ave
nue and Rebecca avenue, and said that
all contractors were dishonest men.
The appointment of Inspectors of con
tract work was, therefore, so much
money thrown nwny.
City Engineer Joseph Phillips depre
cated the action of court In appointing
viewers suggested by attorneys Inter
ested In the case. As an Instance he
cited the grading of Swetland street,
where the viewers were Interested men,
and had granted from $200 to $300 dam
a.es, where very small amounts, If any
at all, were required. The court should
not act upon the advice of Interested
attorneys.
John' Scheuor, of the South Side
board, raid II was a dlfllcult mailer to
find out how the ward appropriations
were expended In many cases. He com
mented upon, the well-paved streets
upon Sanderson hill and the central
wards, and urged that It was due to
tho p.Hentlon of the street commis
sioner, who was charged with expend
ing the appropriations in such rases.
County Surveyor Dunning gnve nn
Interesting address, in which he gave
statistics showing that It would cost
$9,932 per mile to lay a Telford maca
dam road near tho Diamond flats, but
In other parts a good macadam road
could be made for ns low as $2,000 a
mile.
Klrst Wanted to l.cnrn.
Street Commissioner Philip Klrst was
called upon to address the meeting, but
replied that he had accepted the Invi
tation to attend In order to receive les
sons In road-mnklng, William Farrell,
of the West Side, advocated the letting
out by contract of the repairs of
streets. After other remarks tho fol
lowing resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, The present system of ex
pending tho ward appropriations has
proved to be most unsatisfactory and
yields but small results to the public In
the way of maintaining the public thor
oughfares or making Improvements,
making a change In the method most
desirable;
Resolved, By the members of the Cen
tral, Went Side and South Side boards
of trade und other citizens of the city
in public meeting assembled ut Young
Men's Chrlstlun Association hall Wed
nesday evening, April 21, lS'Ju, that
we urge upon the councils the necessity
and duty of huvlng ull the moneys so
appropriated spent under the direct su
pervision of the street commissioner.
W'e believe thut this would tend to ef
fect more systematic improvements In
the wards with respect to the streets.
We further 'believe thut, if it could be
effected, the Improvements be made un
der contract, thus giving the people the
benefit of the competition;
Resolved further, that we urge upon
the citizens ill each locality to hold pub
lic meetings and ugrfe to the grading
mid Improvement of the streets with
out injury to any, ur Jeopardising the
rights of the city.

.Malicious Persons Cut Pipes in New
lliilldlngs.
When Plumber Thomas F. Mullen,
of 215 Spruce street, turned on the
water In the new residence of Architect
B. F. Lueey, In North Park, yesterday,
water spurted like a fountain from
under the tiling of the bath room floor.
An examination was made which
showed that some miscreant had
hacked holes in the heavy lead pipe
supplying the bath room with water,
The pipe looked us if an axe had been
used in rendering It useless. It was
laid about a month ago and as the
house wus not altogether enclosed nt
the time It Is thought that some mali
cious person entered the building at
night, after the workmen left, and de
stroyed the pipe.
During the last few months plumbers
have reported similar outrages In all
parts of the city, but the greatest num
ber of complaints have come from the
Green Kldge portion of the city.
Mr. Mullen will pay a reward of $100
for Information that will lead to the
arrest and conviction of the person who
mutilated the pipe in Mr. Laeey's
house.

There has been no acci
dent about ours. It is
simply the natural result
of energy, due prepara
tion, anticipation and ac
tion along the most pro
gressive lines of modern
merchandising. We make
a diagnosis of the condi
tion of business and the
wants of our patrons, pre
scribing for them the
Best and Most Stylish Garments
At the least possible prices. Xo !
.Not chance! Our success is but
the natural result of a more intel
ligent service and a greater cflort
in your behalll
We also feel that when you
w ant jewelry you'll go to a jew
eler, and when you want bicycles
you'll go to bicycle agents and
when you want clothing you
should go to a clothier.
If we haven't the best line of
Ten Dollar Suits single and dou-Uc-brcasted
sacks and cutaways
in town, you needn't buy of us.
