lier in the lupilty Courts
JudKC Uunslef handed down an opin
ion yesterday lcfuslne to order an issue
franu d to hrlns the proceedings of Wil
liam ri hull, of ttirch street, ajialnst the
Wyoinlns Manui'ucturlni; company Into
court fun the puriiose of having a jury
puss upon the facts In the case.
Hx-ConKressman Lemuel Amcrmun,
John T. Hichards and Attorney II. Y.
Palmer, executurs of the estate of the
late ,ltnh;e John Haiidley, were niuile
respondents to u petition liled by Scholl,
iiskinii that the court hinder tne
nherlti'H s-ale nf the feat estate of the
WyomiiiK-'MiiiiufucturlnK company on
three judgments confessed lo the de
ceased Judtfc.
The petition recited Hint Scholl is a
stockholder in tie- company and the
owner of J.'on.noo wortli of stock; thut ut
no time to his kmiwlcdife was there n
confession of judgment to J. dm Hand-
ley of the notes upon which n tl. fa. has
been issued ami u sale directed of the
real estate of the company. .Mr. Sclmll
alleges that any such notes which may
now lie in existence were procured with
out his knowledge and he verily bonoves
that they were (jot thruimh collusion or
fraud of some character or another;
and if the sale Is allowed to proceed,
he will he it repambly injured.
;iveti Posh ho Assurance.
He avers that the lule Judge Hundley
gave hhu positive assurance that his,
the petitioner's rights, as a stockholder,
would not be jeopard Issed or Impaired.
The matter. Is nlso pendlin,' lu equity
court. The opinion by Jini?e (lunster
dismisses the application for a rule 10
frame the Issue. The opinion is us fol
lows: ''
"The petitioner, William Scholl, prays
for an Issue or issues to determine the
validity of the judgments confessed by
the Wyoming .ManttfacturliiK company.
He alleges union;:- other things thut
they were fraudulently confessed and
by collusion between the deceased
Plaintiff and those who assumed to net
for the defendant. If his allegation In
true he Is undoubtedly entitled to relief
in some form, but we do not see our way
clear to prantirm: it to him on this rule.
"While he muy he a stockholder of
the defendant corporation he is not a
party to the record. He Is not even u
lieu creditor anil If he were I am of
opinion that the application would lie
premature. The relief for which lie
prays Is entirely an eiiultable one. If
the issue were granted and a verdict
rendered in his favor there would be
no way of enforcing the verdict, except
through the equity power of this court.
The petition us a whole is virtually a
bill in equity anil contains many mat
ters which cannot be adjusted by an
Issue to determine the validity of the
judgments.

"We purposely abstain from discuss

controversy raised by the evidence be

rule, wish to be understood as preserv

have. The rule is discharged without
prejudice."
JAM ARY GRAND Jl'KY.
it
Met Yestci Jny und tho Constables of
the County Mad; Their Reports.
The January grand Jury met yester
day morning und was charged by Judge
Kdwurds. After the instructions of the
court were given the Jurors were turned
over to the charge of District Attorney
John It. Jones and they then retired to
puss upon the transcripts sent In. This
will be a light term. The foreman of
the Jury Is Clarence I). Finn, a promin
ent citizen of Ualton township.
The constables were prompt with
their returns and hud the usual tale to
tell of being unable to tlnd any viola
tions of Hie excise laws. Judge Kd
wards questioned closely the function
aries from olyphant and I'arbondule
about how they found the liquor luws
respected, and eat h one of them re
plied that to his knowledge there are no
"speak easles" nor any liquor sold on
Sunday. The court informed the Oly
phant and rarbondule otticers that fre
quent complaints come to the court
about violations of the law.
Iliiidlov I'onnd Nothing Wroni;.
Constable Willium Ttradley, of Cnr-
bondale township, said he went around
his bailiwick regularly in quest of un
licensed liquor . luces, but found noth
ing stronger sold where licenses have
not been granted. Hum candy, etc. Jte
was told that this is only a blind, and
he promised to see If he cannot look
behind the screen.
When (.'unstable John ( . Mornn, of
the Twelfth ward, made his bow to the
oiirt. Judge I'ldwiirds said he would
not put any questions as the sumo old
answers were always given. Air. Moran
smiled and went down to the treasurer's
olli. e to draw his return fees.
Constable Michael Moran. of Cnrbon
dale, was asked his experience in being
able to discover places where Hie ardent
is sold without a license. He solemnly
assured Judge Kdwurds he couldn't run
across any. - -
Work of I qultv Court.
After the grand Jury retired and the
eonstubhs' reports were over witli the
equity suit of Attorney John U. Conley,
of Ootroit, against Aslier M. Fell, of
Wllkes-Harte. was taken up before
Judge Kdward;;. .Major Kverett War
ren and Attorney Klchnrd H. Holgate
appeared for the respondent nnd Attor
ney Charles H. Welles, of this city, and
Attorney (leorge Powell, of Wilk.es
I'.arre. represented the complainant.
Attorney Couloy's wife, deceased, was
a sister of Aslier AI. Fell. Their father
was a resident of Wuveiiy borough in
this county und died a few years ngo
leaving, an estate of, perhaps. $20.(1110.
The two children of Attorney Conely
and Mr. Fell are the only heirs and
the estate was left in the proportion of
nne-hnlf to Mr. Fell unit the other half
to the Conely children.
The proceedings In court now nre for
an Injunction to restrain Aslier A I. Fell
from using any more of the revenues
of the estate on the ground that he, as
executor, is inlsinunup,ing It nnd not do
ing Justice to the Conely children.
The most of the time was spent in
examining Mr. Fell on the Items charged
In his account In settling up the estate.
BILLS OF TIIK ASSISTANTS.
They
Caused Plenty of Talk at Meeting
of the AiiUltinc Committee.
A little muss which serves as a re
minder of the recent scraps between
the assessors and the new board of re
vision and appeals occurred nt last
night's meeting of the joint auditing
committee of councils.
Mr. Mauley, who presided, nnd Mr.
Thomas, two of the board of revision
and anneals and afso of the auditing
committee, objected long und loud to
uporoving hills from assltant assessors
In nearly every ward. The bills were
for reports u:nn which th ISftii assess
ment is made. Mr. Alanley was es
pecially combative In his endeavor to
Ignore the bills. His reason was that
the assessors had not surrendered their
books according to the board's demand
and consequently could not expect to
secure notion if councils upon business
from the assessors' oliico while the lat
ter persisted In ignoring the request of
the board which represents councils.
Messrs. Keanians, Durr, Loftus and
Robinson did not hold tn tne same opin
ion as did Mr. Mauley, but rather than

many city otlieials, voted nlliruuitively
upon Mr. Seumuns' motion thut the

Ing. Meanwhile, developments In the !
quarrel between board and assessors !
may facilitate the final lir;ioHltion of
the bills of the assistant assessors. .

one eye was slightly cut and many

position in which Mrs. Tweed stood
probably saving her from Instant deulh.
Dr. iiurnett was summoned und did
everything possible to lessen pain and

COMIXW ATTRACTION'S.
Tonight Sutton Vane's latest melo- ;
drama, "The Cotton King," will be seen '
nt the Academy of Music. AVhile it is1

which nppeuls strongly to American !
audiences. The part nlaved bv I
Jack Osborn is a Yunkee who has
made a fortune In the cotton business
in the South and has gone to Kngland
to purchase a factory and Introduce
Yankee Ideas. He falls deeply in love
with an Knglish girl and then begin
his troubles for he has a rival not only
for her affections but also In a business
way. The villain tries to make out that
the hero Is a scoundrel, n thief and
linally an Insane man and also tries to i
get the heroine out of the way by bring
ing her In contact with contagious dis
ease und by forcing her beneath tho
ponderous car of a heavy freight ele
vator. In all of these schemes he fails
and virtue is triumphant as in nil well
ordered melodramas. Those who do not
know how calico Is printed can get un
excellent Idea of the work in the splen

Sl'ABKOOKi: IN CO.MLDY.
Was Well Received Last Might at the
Aendemv nf Music.
A new three act comedy by George
II. firoadhurst called "The Speculator"
was produced at the Academy of Music
last evening with Thomas Q. Seabrooke
of comic opera fume lu the leading role.
The comedy is cleverly constructed
and bears the ear murks of u success. It
received Its first stage production at Al
bany on Christmas day where It met
with a hearty welcome und within a few-
weeks it will have Its Hist presentation
in New York city. The comedy is of the
legitimate school and the humor is
evolved naturally from situations that
are the rational outgrowth of the story
the playwrlte has to tell.
Air. Seabrooke in the role of John
Fullerion proved that his ability us an
entertainer extends beyond the domain
of comic opera. Arthur Forrest who
was cast for the role of Robert Fuller
ton was taken 111 Saturday and Sidney
llooth. son of Agnes Hootli. wus given
the part Sunday to study. We surprised
everyone by thevlever manner In which
he interpreted the role after one day's
study. He is a quick memorizer and
has evidently much of his ancestors'
stage ability.
Miss Blanche Motilton, did an excel
lent bit of work ns Mrs. Florence and
wus well received by the audience. Off
the stage she Is Mrs. Hoone, wife of
Daniel Hoone, who will bo remembered
us the treasurer of the Frothlnghain
after it was opened two years ago'.
The company thn ugliout Is excellent
but among others besides those above
mentioned worthy of spcciul mention
Were Harrison S. Armstrong, Roy Fair:
child, Kthel Wlnthrop. Jeann -tte I.ow
rie and Marion Young.
Mr. Hroadhurst was with the company
and witnessed last night's production.
Tonight the com puny will appear in

BURKE WINS BY ONE VOTE
Cuuncilmanic Contest in Third Ward
of Olyphant ISoromih Decided.
COIKT KECOIXTEI) HALLOT
Attorney for Jun-cs J. I'ljnn, Who llus
Held the Sent Two Years, Wlil I i lo Ex
ceptions Todny-Twcnty-I ive Per
Cent, of the Vote Cast lllcjul.
P.y n recount of the vote, made yes
terday In chambers before Judge Arch-
bald, the coiim ilmanie contest In the
Third ward of the borough of Olyphant,
Is decided In favor of ICdward J. Hurke,
the contestant, who wins by one vote.
James .1. Flynn. the respondent, was
elected by two votes on the face of the
retii.-is. The term Is for three years.
and Flynn has served almost two-thirds
of It; the third year will begin on the
llrs t Monday of .March
File returns showed that ! Ivnn re-
I ceived ii votes and llurke 6:1. Inini.
! diately a contest was instituted by At-
torney C. C. Donovan und Joseph
O'Brien, representing the deieated can
didate. Major Kverett Warren, C. I1
, o Alulley and Hubert J. .Murray were
! engaged by the respondent as his ut
1 torneys.
In the bill of particulars filed the
i Petitioner alleged that all who voted for
I i.'vnn, had no right to rote. The ulle
gallon was not spcellleally set forth In
that minuter hut that was the sub
stance of It. The names of every voter
who wus presumed to have cust his
I ballot for Flvnn wus put down among
the list of Illegal voters. The answer
I of the defendant set forth that all who
I voted for Hurko were illegal voters;
thut Is. the names of ull who It was sup
i posed voted for him were thus charac-
( terized.
Coramlssloneis at Work.
The court appointed us commissioners
to take testimony Attorneys John F.
Murphy and Duvld J. Davis and after
many hearings the report was tiled
and It was found thut twenty-four of
the votes were illegal. The report or
the commissioners was fus'orable to the
respondent, for among the list of those
found to be not entitled to vote both
i candidates were evenly represented, and
: ns Flynn was two ahead of Uurke on
the face of the returns,
The petitioner's attorneys, Messrs.
Donovan and O'Hrlen, believed that a
recount of the vote would disclose a
stute of affairs favorable to their client.
und J udge ArcnnuUI graiueu tne prayer
The recount showed that each fundi
date received 66 votes. There were l."n
votes cast In the ward. The election
boards found onlv 6:t for llurke and 6.1
for Flynn. The Illegal votes cast were
found to be 12 for Flynn and 11 for
Hui ke. which makes the latter the win
ner by the very narrow margin of one
vote.
Those who voted for Flynn and UKJ
not possess the qualifications necessary
were: W m. Alctiuie, i nomas niciiaie,
1st, Thomas All Hale. 2d. Patrick Ma
hady. Thomas Afessltt, James Conners,
Michael Spiller, George .yman. Andrew
Digno, Michael Kazmowczk, Peter Po
I k and Steven Stosch.
Those who voted for Burke and whose
ballots were thrown out are: Thomas
Sanderson. Robert Telford. Win. Pier
son. Henry tfheller, Joseph Jackson,
James Sttud, Reese Jones, Patrick
Walsh. Peter Heap, Kvan Owens nnd
William Robinson.
Thirty-Seventh Was Illegal.
The man who was the thirty-seventh
to vote as he wus marked on the tully
list was found to be an Illegal voter
but when the box was opened yesterday
there was no No. ;;" to be found: there
were two numbered No. 36, hut it was
Impossible to tell which ought to be
No. 37. Anthony AIcHule was the man
who voted No. 37 and he was found to be
nn illegal voter, but us the other No. 36
was a legal vote the matter had to
stand without remedy. This evidently
gave Flynn a vote which he would not
have If the ballots were numbered cor
rectly. McIIale voted for Flynn.
In going over the count Christopher
Burbeck, It was discovered, voted for
both Flynn and Burke; his vote was not
counted for either. The attorneys for
the respondent propose to llle nn excep
tion to this disposition of Burheck's
vote, alleging that It can be easily dis
cerned from the manner in which the
ballot is marked that the man Intended
to vote for Flynn.
If the court should sustain this ex
ception It will make the vote a tie and in
that case whether or not Flynn would
be better benefited Is a question to be
decided when the case arises. Flynn
has occupied the seat since March.
Ih94. The exceptions will come up to
day and will be disposed of without
delay so as to let Uurke into his seat
at once if the court should overrule the
objections.
A study from this contest shows that
twenty-five per cent, of the votes cast
In the Third ward of Olyphunt borough
was illegal, that the voters did not pos
sess the necessary qualifications. The
bar in a majority of the discarded
votes was the non-payment of poll
tax. If the illegality of votes In the
entire county were based upon the re
turns from the Third ward of Olyphant
as a criterion, there would be 4.(MXI Ille
gal votes cast every fall election.
