BIDS FOR THE SUPPLIES.
They Were Opened at Mooting of Board
of Control Committee.
There -was to have been a meeting of
the supply committee of the board of
control last nJffht to consider proposals
for the furnishing of supplies for the
coming school year, but as only two
member C. H. VonSrorch and James
O'Boyte, put in an appe? ance no action
was taken.
However, the curlosfty of ttves two
led them to peep rtnto the sealed bids, of
which there were four, H. Howard
Beidleman, J. A. Scranton & Son, W.
H. Withers and Reynolds Bros. Inas
much as these hitter two firms had a
Wflfm titrugrle last year In the furnish
tng of pads, the principal Item in the
supply list, their figures this year were
watched, for with much interest.
It wlU be remembered that the com-
3ilttee undertook to select, from sarn
ies furnished by the bidders the var
ious articles uport whtehi bids were
asked, and aa a remit an allegation
came forward from Mr. Withers to the
effect that Reynolds Bros., who were
awarded the . pencil pad contract, had
not furnished tha paper called for fai
the epeclflciatlonfl. Thlere was much
wrangling and newspaper talk at the
time, but nothing came out of It. This
year the committee specified a particu
lar kind of article desired in each case,
and as a consequence no difficulties of
last year's description are likely to re
sult. It Is evident that Withers la deter
mined to secure the contract this time,
as his -bid l nearly 10 per cent, less
.than Reynolds Bros.' figures which are
the next lowest.
In the other Items the other bidders
each had lowest bids, and it Is likely

Expresses His Opinion.
WHAT CANDIDATE SHOULD HAVE

That Wilt t"o ICvory Honorable Means
to Secure Mr. Wlllard's Nomina,
tion for Superior Court Judge.
All "newspaper men know how uifll
cult it Is to KPt exLleutenant Gover
nor Watres to talk for publication.
Yesterday a Tribune reporter, know
ing Colonel "Watres1 warm and sterling
friendship for Senator Quay, succeed
ed in getting Mr. Watres to Bpeak con
cerning the pending political contest.
He said:
"I have not changed my opinion since
I expressed It two weeks ago, to wit,
that Judge Willard should be given a
delegation from Lackawanna county of
his own choosing.
"Mr. Willard has placed the Republl
can party In this county Individually
and collectively ur.tler deep obligations
by his splendid and efficient services,
He has contributed' more time and
money and has asked for less than any
other man in the county. .
"I am convinced that the county wants
him to have a delegation that will use
every honorable means to bring about
his nomination for Superior court judge
in the coming sttate convention.
"This being true, the only fair way in
which it can be done Is to select dele
gates who will subordinate every other
political interest which may present it
self In the convention to that of Judge
Willard, or in other words, who will,
at Harrisburg, do as :Mr. Willard re
quests, regardless of any personal opln
ions or preferences of their own.
"Personally Judge Willard Is thor
oughly familiar with 'my views con
cerning the state contest and is aware
of my friendship for Senator Quay.
"But whether he complies with my
wishes or not, I shall vote for the dele
gates selected by him. He Is entitled to
t'hla at my hands, and, as I believe, at
the hands of every Republican of
Lackawanna county."
DEATH WAS ACCIDENTAL
So the Coroner's Jury In the Cose of
Frits Bauer Decided.
A verdict that Fritz Bauers' death
was caused by an accident in falling
down a stairway in the rear of 425 or
427 Penn avenue, was last night re
turned by the coroner's Jury, after
hearing evidence upon the case In the
court house.
Bauers was found lyJng In the rear of
the above number on Monday morn
ing and taken to the police station.
He apparently had no physical powers
and was supposed to be suffering from
the effects of a debauch. Early
Wednesday morning he was removed to
the Lackawanna hospital, where he
died In less than fifteen minutes after
being received.
What Mrs. Graves Snld.
An autopsy performed by Coroner
Kelley and Hospital Surgeon Heald
showed that Bauers neck had been
broken. Meanwhile J.Trs. Graves, who
lives upstairs at No. 425, had told the
coroner and a Tribune reporter that
she saw Harry and Sam Ooldschlager,
two peddlers, knock and kick Bauers
down the rear stairway at the foot of
which the unfortunate man was found
In a helpness condition Monday morn
ing. Mrs. Graves' own testimony last
night and the testimony of others
shows her to be a consumate fabricator.
She did not testify to half that she told
the coroner and The Tribune reporter,
and she wavered and split hairs on the
little that she did not swear to. The
collective evidence tended to show that
Mrs. Graves was not to be believed;
that she was not home until at least
an hour after Bauers made his fatal
fall, and that the two peddlers were
not in Bauers company after 7.30
o'clock.
Sotno Convincing Testimony.
The most convincing testimony of
accidental death was offered by Mrs.
Tessler, wife of one of the bakery firm
at No. 427. At 9.80 o'clock she saw
Bauers fall down the steps and fall to
rise again. The next morning he was
found on the spot indicated by Mrs.
Tessler.
Not more than a few moments were
rpent in deliberation by the Jury be
fore it returned the verdict of acci
dental death; which exonerates the
Goldschlagers from nhy responsibility

CHARGE AGAINST LAINE.
It Was Withdrawn in Time to Keep 111 in
out or jail.
' An unexpected turn of affairs took
place In ' tne J. H. Lathe accessory
gambling case before Alderman Millar
yesterday. The alderman was on the
point of making out the commitment
papers on Thursday o send Lalne to
the county jail In default C ball, but
jthe defendant was gives more time to
go out and hunt a bondsman.
- Lalne was still unable to get ball even
yesterday, and was about to currender
himself for incarceration, when the
county detective came forward and
withdrew the case against htm.
From one of Lalne's most intimate
friends it was learned hut evening that
he will not remain long In the Electric
City. It was also stated that - the
Scranton Traction company ha agreed
to settle all bills.
THEY HAD A CONFERENCE.
Members of the Lackawanna Institute
and the County Commissioners.
A. W. Dickson. J. II. Fisher, F. E.
Piatt and Dr. Throon, of the Lackt-
wanna Institute of History and Science,
had a conference at -the court house
yesterday with Commissioners Giles
Roberts. 8. W. Roberts and John De-
muth. The Institute is willing to ob
tain quarters elsewhere but thinks that
it should be recompensed for the full
amount of money expended In fitting up
the room It occupied.
By reference to the minutes of the
meeting of the commissioners in isxfl,
when permission was given the insti
tute to occupy a room In the court
house, it was found that the agreement
was that if the institute vacated vol
untarily or by request of the commis
sioners within five years of the date of
its occupanee it should receive the full
amount expended on the room.
If the room was used for more thnn
five years and less than ten, then one-
half the money would be refunded. If
occupied more than ten years nothing
was to be repaid. The Institute has
been in possession about nine years
and In accordance with he agreement
the county commissioners are willing
to pay one-half the money expended
on me room. The members of the In
stltute did not know that there was
such an agreement and thought they
snouiu receive the full amount expend
ed.
A definite decision as to what will
be done was not arrived at at vester-
day's conference. The room as fitted
at present will be of little or no use
to the commissioners as It will have to
be entirely remodelled to make It of any
service ior court purposes.

SOME VERY EXCITING BATTLES
Clcaa Sweep of the Willard Delegates at

of Cnrbondalc Names of Delegates
Chosen to Today's Convention.
One of the liveliest Republican pri
mary elections in the history of Lack
awanna county was conducted yeeteir
day In the Fourth Legislative district
between the hours of 5 and 7 o'clock.
It resulted in a victory for the men
who fought in the interests of Judge
Willard and at midnight there Beemed
no reasonable doubt that today's con
ventlon at Dunmore will elect Clerk of
thu Courts John H. Thomas, of Car-
bondale, and James Young, of Dun-
more, who will go to the Republican
state convention at Harrisburg pledged
solely to Judge Wlllard's Interests.
Th? friends of United States Senator
M. S. Quay made desierat fights for
delegates In almimt every voting divi
sion in Die district and in some Instances
were successful.
Representative Charles P. O'Malley,
who returned at midnight from a tour
through the district, said when seen by
a Tribune reporter:
"We have heard from voting divisions
Hhat elected ftixty-nve of the seventy-
two delegates in tho district and of
this? forty-woven were cho2n in Judge
W-lllard'slntc-rests. There Is no doubt
In my mind but that John H. Thomas
and James Young will be elected state
delegates at tomorrow's convention.

WOMAN WITH A GUN.
Pat Deputy Sheriff T. J. Price to Flight
In Dickson City, Yesterday.
Two comely, respectable looking wo
men, each with a babe in arms, occu
pied the same cell In the station bouse
last night. They were Mrs. Lanfer
Kohlman ar.d Mr Marine Van Nort, of
Dickson City, and the cause of their
being under lock and key was a charge
of Interfering with an officer In the dis
charge of his duty and pointing fire
arms. The accusation Is made by Deputy
Sheriff T. J. Price, who alleges that he
went to Mrs. Kohlman's house yester
day to levy uporv her furniture and waa
repulsed at the point of a revolver. He
swore out a warrant against them, and
Constable Jeff Roesler arrested the two
women last night.
The women's story Is that the officer
came to Mrs. Kohlman's house, end
vhe being unable to understand - his
mission, being a Bohemian and unac
quainted with English, refused to let
him In. He forced his way im and
'handled Mrs. Kohlman rather roughly.
Seeing the trouble from her home
across tho way, Mrs. Van Nort went
to her neighbor's assistance and when
this reinforcement came the Bohemian
woman seized a revolver and chased
the deputy sheriff out of the house.
Both women's husbands are out of the
city looking for work.
BURGLARY AT DURYEA.
Safe in tho Store of John J. Sampson
blown Open. -
John J. Sampson's grocery store at
Duryea was er.-lered by burglars be
tween. midnight and daylight yesterday
morning and the safe, of the Stiffel &
Freeman make, blown- open. Only $10
In cash and jewelry of Mr". Sampson
was the reward they secured, except
about twenty pairs of mien's eboes,
which they carried off from the store.
They bored a hole in the top of the
safe, 6x Inches from the face of the
door, put in the explosives and the
cra.'h- broke the combination-. Fifty
pound sacks of. flour were thrown
agaLnst the door to deaden the noise
of explosion.
Entrance was gained to the store by
prying open a side window with a
jimmy. Mr. Sampson found besides his
wrecked safe and the empty ca-h draw
er, part of a kit of burglars tools. On
the soles of the shoes stolen was print
ed the word "Dandy." This may yet
discover a clue to the perpetrators.
Mr. Sampson ha' not the least sus
plclon as to who the burglars are, but
he believes they knew something about
his business. Thursday he had a large
sii of money In the safe, but he paid
bills and had only the tmall amount
left. His wife's Jewelry was estimated
more on account of Its having been pre
sented to 'her by friends than for its
Intrinsic value.
She heard noises about 2 or 3 o'clock,
but paid no attention to 'them. The
general supposition is that a gang of
proresslonal -burglar? Is once again pay
ing its respects to the small towns of
this and Wyoming valleys.,

TBEY CLOSED TBE CHURCH
Trouble in Congregation of . Greek
Catholic Church of Old Porge.
COURTS TO BE APPEALED TO
Will Do Asked to Restrain the Polish Ele
ment of the Congregation from Keep,
ing tho Church Closed and In
terfcrlng with tho Services.
Serious trouble exists among
Greek Catholics who worship in
the
the
church near Rendham. '
The congregation is made up of about
400 Hungarian Greek Catholics and
about 100 Pollth Greek Catholics, the
priest being an- 'Hungarian.
For some reason or other he Is dis
tasteful to the Polish element of the
congregation, wfho desire a change.
Falling to secure another priest they
last Sunday took possesion of the
church and refused to allow any ser
vices to be held in It.
During the week overtures for a set
tlement of the difficulty have been un
successful made, and now the matter
Is to be carried to court.
It is probable that today Attorney E.
C. Newcomb will apply for an injunc
tion to, restrain the 'Polish element of
the congregation from keeping the
church closed tomorrow and preventing
the holding of services.
