SUED THE D., L & Vs. COMPANY
Jodg. Slmoaton,of llarrlsbarg, Presided
at Trial Case and Nonsuited It -Verdict
la liughoa-Dolaware and
Hudson Suit Is Iphcld.
Judge Slmonton'b opinion In the case
of Thomas Kennedy against the Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western Rail
road company for damage, wa. received
yesterday by Prothonotary Pryor. The
cae wa. called for trial on April i
last before Judge Slmonton, of Harris
burg, sitting In the court of this county
and was nonsuited. Cornelius Smith
was attorney for the plaintiff and Judge
Wlllard. ex-Judce Jessuu-and M. I. Cor
bett were the legal representatives of
the company.
Kennedy lives on the West Side, and
was empKyed for upwards or nine
years preceding May 23, ISM. by th
company at one of Its breakers on the
West Side. His orcupatlon. was chiefly
In hauling ashes from the boiler room
and taking coal In with a mula and car.
On the date aforementioned he was tak
ing coal Into the boiler room and after
the car was dumped, he shoved It to
the d.Kr to hitch the mule to It. The
nnlmal was around tho corner and
when he went U K"t it, the long-eared
creature broke away.
Veil Into Hot Water.
Kennedy thought that a piece of sheet
Iron wa. what caued the mule to get
fractions, of which It evidently got
scared, and he picked It up to carry It
where it would be out of sight. While
carrying the sheet Iron behind the
boiler he stumbled Into a receptable
that contained the exhaust steam from
the pumping engine. It contained about
three reel of hot water and his leg wa9
so burned that he was four months In
bed, and not able to work for almost
two years.
When the plaintiffs case rested court
granted a compulsor nonsuit on the
ground that Kennedy went Into a place
where he was not called to go either
In the course of his employment or
otherwise, and that the company was
not therefore responsible for his acci
dent.
The oprnlon was on the argument to
strike off the nonsuit and Juilse Slm
onton refuses to strike It off. He says
the facts In the case have not changed
since he granted the nonsuit.
Hughes Verdict Snst.ined.
Since L-ack&wu'mva. a cowry was
formed no larger verdict 'has been ren
dered In the courts here.. where the ac
tion of damages waa on account of the
death of a. person, than in the .case of
Mrs. Margaret Hughes against lha
Delaware and Hud'Son Canal Railroad
company for the death of her husband.
At the Cartoon street crossing on the
evtnin of Sept. 3. 1S90, William J
Hughes, of Luzerne street, ihusband of
I ha lilntlff, wa. driving over the tracks
in a buggy, a. train dashed Into the out
fit and Hugiwe was Injured so badly
Shot :he died thirteen days later at the
Laakawunna hospSaL He left a wife
and nine chUdVen, another having been
born after his deith.
The euS; was called for trial on Aprl
10 of this year. Judge SUmomton, of Har
ri9burg. presiding. Judge WUIoird. Ma
jor Everett Warren ,r.J ex-Judje
Knafp appeared for the plaintiff, and
the company was reipreseni.ed y ex
Judge W. H. Jessup, W. H. Jessup, Jr.,
and Horaoe E. Hand, attorney The
Jury returned! vervilct of t9.499.50, witth
the qualification that the court should
decide She validity if t'he verdict on
the question as to whether or not the
husband of the plaintiff had been guilty
of contributory negligence.
Jndge Simdionton's Decision,
An argument for a cerar l.rlal was
mode and the &cUfon of the court wus
announced On an opinion received yes
terday by Prothonotary Pryor. Judge
Slmonton refuses to giant a raw trial
a,nd ruled tlholt Hughes was not guilty
of contributory Mgllgence. The cross
ing was guarded try gates, 'but they were
not lowered on the approach of the
train which killed Hughes, who drove
across on the supposition I: hat no train
was coming because the gates were not
lowered.
Th opinion ordered Judgment for the
verdict to be entered against the com
pany. -

. It ia said that upon the completion of
the new Sevewth Sl..reet station in Car

The rumor that the Reading company
ha- cut city prices) on coal about IS
cents per ton ixu teen denied by offi
cials ,of the company.' It is asserted,
however, that the Pennsylvania and Le
high companies are the guilty parties.
Rwdrlng officttAs admitted that they
had hoard of such cuts being made, but
as yet had taken no aotkm ta the mat
ter, and they could not aay whether
they would meet the cuts. It Is prcb
able, however, they will toe compelled
to do so, or see their local trade puss
Into the hands of JU rivals.
Abserit-mlmled people have recentry
led the larger trunk lines to Introduce
a new kind of employe Into the rail

for. If not claimed within reasonable
tlrme they are sold.
iReia-tlve Ho the rumor that the Penn
sylvania is making war on the Order of
Railway Conduotors, a Philadelphia ex
change has the following: The com
pany do not discharge the members of
the order outright, it I said, but they
are given ko understand that it would
please the compumy if they would re
tire from the order, and man who are
not members of the order are advanced
over those holding memVbersWp. The
company cfalm that the reaison they are
doing tints Is I tout there are a targe num
ber of ex-conductors and others not In
the railway service who are members of
the order, and who are oontlrvu-ally stir
ring up strife or trying to foment trou

of action of the company the fol
lowing ei iterootvt of Chief Counsel Por
ter: "What conststutea' baggage may
be a question for a Jury before we get
through. I hurve bee-n looking up the
tosUter very carefully of late, and the
lame between the railroad andi 'cyclist
has got to come. I am preparing a
brief, and as far as I can see the rail
roads can be compelled to carry wheels
as baggage, and to check them the same
as they do trunks and valleea. Albert
Mott. of Maryland, wiho Is chairman of
the transportation committee of the
League of American 'Wheelmen, has
done good work tn this direct ton. I look
to se the question taken up In this state
and dvcldJd, and I think It will be
'before long. In exime oasea 'cyclists
are cnmpelled to pay for carrying dlhelr
wheels and sign releases at the same
time. The law on the sjnaitter In this
state Is that so much is charged per
passage and ISO pounds of baKKage. If
anybody la charged In excess t hw com
pany U llible to a forfeit of $50 aind I
wJH wager that the companies have for
feited in t'hle way. U not paid, fully
$150,000 fn the last wo man) ha. When
my brief Is prepared I will erfbmlt it to
the presidents of the League of Amerl
aon Wiheelmen and 'the (board of trade.
A bicycle Is personal property, end lihe
same rules which govern a aatchel or
trunk should apply to the wheel."
SHOCKING STATEMENT.
Counellmcn Henr All About Omen, Volts
Amphcres, Watts nnd the Like.
Owing to the fact that the city. In
the opinion of the watch dogs of the
treasury has been paying too much for
the lighting of the city hall, engine
houses and the like, the lUht and watch
committee of select council has entered
upon an Invest Igatlon of the different
methods pursuinMiy electric light com
panies In charging for the illuminating
fluid, and upon this point will chletly
rest the decision of the committee on
the proposals now before councils.
Many of the councllmen, and especial
ly the light and water councllmen, shara
the opinion of some electrical experts
that It Is impossible to correctly mea
sure the amount of electricity that Is
used In lighting purposes. They favor
paying for the service at so much per
lamp and It is likely that the company
securing the bid will be compelled to
make their figures accordingly.
At a meeting of the committee last
nlsht representatives of the Illuminat
ing. Heat and Power comnnnv nnd tho
Suburban Electric Light company were
present and illustrated to the committee
the metrical system used by each. As
the committee evinced a desire to
become more thoroughly acquainted
With the subject it una dooldeil tn a.:

quently no action was taken on the
bids last night, and no report will be

The Delaware and Hudson are sending
circulars to all their agents requesting In
formation as to who In their respective
towns take boarders, that they may next
year give a more complete list of hotels
and summer boarding houses than Is now
given In their b?autifully Illustrated book
entitled Mountain, Lake and Meadow,
which is a hotel and boardlrg-house reg
ister. Many who take boarders during the
summer are not represented in the work
owing to the failure to respond to circu
lars sent out by Mr. Burdlck, general pas
senger agent, early In the spring. He Is
anxious to give a more complete list next
season acid every one desiring boarders
should make application to the nearest
station agent on the Delaware and Hud
son for thfse blanks, properly fill them out
and return them to station agent or mail
them to J. W. Burdlck, general passenger
agent, Albany, N. Y. You will get a rep
resentation tree, or If you desire an en
graving of your house shown in the work
you can get it at an expense of 13, to or $10,
as Is fully explained in circular which will
be furnished by station agents. A copy of
.Mountain, L,ak and Meadow will be
mailed to any address on receipt of a 2

"George Adams, formerly connected
with the Scranton, Pa., office of a. G.
Dun & Co., was at the Globe hotel yes
terday," says the Syracuse Post. "Mr. Ad
ams recently fell heir to some real estate
in the vicinity of Buffalo, on which soil
suitable for making brick was discovered,
and he has Just disposed of some of It at
terms exceedingly advantageous to him
self. Speaking of Scranton yesterday, Mr.
Adams said: 'Business In Scranton Is
booming just at present. There Is an ac
tive demand for real estate and nrlces
have advanced from 15 to 25 per cent. This
Is an encouraging sign, as real estate is
generally the last thing to feel the effects
of returning prosperity. There Is a good
deal of building going on In Scranton and
Its suburbs. A large ten-story office build
ing is being erected In the heart of the
city, ground has been broken for a mag
nificent bank building and the chamber of
commerce Is to have a new structure.
Any quantity of smaller structures, in
cluding a number of handsome residences
are In process of construction or planned.
The Iron mills are all running, some of
them night and day, and everybody is
busy and everybody happy.' "
John L. Kerr, representing Wagner A

ater. Is In the city and will remain here
a few days to make arrangements for the
formal opening during the first or noxt
month, although Cleveland's m'nstrels
have been secured for the night of Friday,
Aug. 18. When interviewed by a Tribune
reporter last night Mr. Kerr was unpre
pared to make an early announcement cf
the season's bookings nor could he state
who the manager and attaches of the
theater will be. He remarked that If suit
able persons could be procured In Scran
ton he would prefer to engage the whole
theater corps from this city. In discussing
the clnss-of attractions to be presented
Mr. Kerr sadd that none of the cheaper
kind win be engaged, nor will the theater
depend upon companies playing on the cir
cuit of which the Frothlngham is a part.
standard companies and standard plays
and operas only will be secured, while at
Intervals the best New York attractions
wfll appear In special engagements. Tho
policy of the management will be to cater
only to the best theater-going element.

reached th. lines after taps had been
sounded, and not being provided with the
countersign was placed under arrest and
conveyed to the guard house, notwith
standing his most vigorous protestations.
While the corporal of the guard was look

him the dominie, In none too amiable a
mood, was languishing In the guard house,
and during all this time a mischievous

of that day, "The Way of th. Trans
