Seriously Injured and I Now a
Cripple lie Sue to Recover
.5o.00O-Utber Coses.
The third und Inst week of January
term common pleas court niiened yes
terday morning. Judge'tJunster is pre
siding In the main court room; Judge
Harold SI. McClure, or I.ewlsbiirg,
president Judge f tlie Twentieth
judicial district eiiihraclng , llnion,
Snyder and Mttliln ciiiintles, Is holding
court In No. J; Judge Kdwards In No. S.
The important suit of David G. Jones
ngaiiiKl the Delaware ami Hudson
Canal company for . J'.O.iXMJ damages
was put on trial before Judge SlcClure.
Major Hverett Warren Is uttoruey for
the jdalntllT and ex-Judge W. It. Jes
sup and W. H. Jcstiiifi, Jr., are counsel
for the defendant. J one is an old man.
He was rldlnt; in the sume carriage as
William J. Hughes on Hept. 3. 1S90.
when a freight engine dashed Into them
at the Carbon street crossing. Hughes
was killed and Jones was terribly In
jured. . .
Jones was for a Inns time laid up in
the hospital and even now is a cripple.
His left foot is cut off at the heel, one
of his arms Is disubled and his head is
very tender from deep cuts sustained.
The plaintiff alleges negligence on the
part of the company. . An ordinance
had been passed In the city councils
requiring gates and a watchman nt the
crossing. The irates were put up but
the watchman was not on duty after
t! o'clock In the evening. Hisday'
work was then finished. :' '"'
Accident OccnreJ initio Evening. -"
The accident occurred between fi und
7 o'clock in the evening as the men were
driving towurd I'rovidonce Hughes
was a contractor and was going to see
about a job. Jones was a miner und
was ulcus' with hint us u companion.
The largest verdict of damngcs for per
sonal Injuries that was given by' a jury
In this comity was in the hughes case.
The verdict was for l,4i.o0.
It Wits proved on the Hughes trial,
and the case is merely a repetition,
that a train on the north hound track
stopped above the crossing and ob
structed the view tip the south bound
truck. When the carriuge got on the
track the southbound freight struck it
und carried It on the pilot down the
track, several hundred feet before the
train was stopped. The horse was
killed instantly.
Sir. Jones, the plaintiff, was on the
stand from the time the case opened in
the afternoon until 4 o'clock, when he
made way for County Surveyor Hartl
who will be out of town today and wus
called to Identify a map he made of
the crossing. Mr. Jones will he put on
the stuud when court convenes this
morning.
In. the main court room the damage
suit of Julia Walsh against the city of
Scranlon was culled for trial. Kx-City
Solicitor Ira II. llurns Is attorney for
tlie plaintiff and City Solicitor J. II.
Torrey appears for the defendant. The
suit Is for damages caused by. the over
flow of the l'lne lirook sewer in July
1XH0. The pluititlff Is wife of Tipstaff
Anthony Walsh.
Testimony of iho Contractor Heard.
On this case will depend several
others brought against the city on the
same ground. John T. Fltzputrick,
one of the contractors who built the
sewer, and C. W. Thompson, who was
inspector of it, were the witnesses
heard yesterday tm the part of the
plaintiff.
Two small eases were called In No. S.
The first wus one In which Mary John
son Is plaintiff und K. H. Shurtlefr. de
fendant. She Is executrix of the estate
of Attorney Martin Kays, deceased,
who during his lifetime was executor
of the estate of John B. Ferries. A
note of $400 was siven by Kays and it
is to collect the umount that the suit is
brought, Kays paid the note und what
Is wanted now Is to recover the money.
The replevin suit of John Mcllinty
against Patrick Jordan and others was
the other case tailed in No. :t. Attor
ney Joseph O'Brien represents the
plaintiff and Attorney T. V. I'owdcrly,
the defendant.
BOTH TICKETS KNOCKED OUT
Action of the Court In the Twentieth
Ward Muddle.
Court yesterday gave Its decision In
the dispute between the two factions of
Twentieth ward Democrats, both of
whom claimed to be tlie regular Demo
cratic nominees. The decision is to the
effect that neither the ticket headed
by John Olbbons or the one on which
Joseph I.. Hanuick Is the candidate for
school controller has any right on the
ofllclul ballot in the column assigned to
Democratic nominees. In other words,
neither is a regular Democratic ticket.
From this decision Judge Kdwards dis
sented. All of the candidates have
filed nomination papers and the light
will go on Just the same.
The healing in the matter took up all
of Saturday, und yesterday the argu
ment of counsel was made before the
three judges. While Attorney Comegys
was arguing for the Hannick contin
gent, he was frequently Interrupted by
Judge (iunster, who declared himself
warmly about the manner in which the
caucus was conducted. His honor was
deeply convinced that there was great
Irregularity: the call for the caucus, the
court said, did not show whether it was
to be a Democratic, Kepubllcnn, Prohi
bition or Populist gathering.
Judscs Held o Conference.
When the arguments were over the
three Judges left the bench and retired
to Judge Archbold's chamber to con
sult together. After a short time they
reappeared and Judge Archbald stated
that a majority of the judges were of
the opinion thnt neither set of candi
dates Is entitled to go In the Democratic
column. .
Judge Kdwards said that he dis
sented from this ruling, he being of the
opinion that the candidates headed by
Sir. (lllibons were entitled to the place
on the ticket In the Democratic column.
The judge believes, because the caucus
was called by a Democratic committee
man that It was a Democratic caucus
and the result was the will of the people
and that It should be heard.
The nomination papers of ftlbbons,
SlcOrall, Kuddy, Cahilin and Murray
are Hied under the heading "True Dent
ocrats," und are signed by Charles
Slmrell. M. L. Coyne, Thomas Barrett.

Hy request the following letter from Dr.
James Md.end to last evening's Truth is
reprinted. The doctor says: 1 do not be
lieve the Truth would willingly misrepre
sent me, bat It has dona so In the follow
ing editorial purasraph: "it Is too bad
that so eloquent a gentleman as the Itev.
Dr. James .Mcl.eod, of this city, should
mar Ids post prandial oratory or nearly
every occasion by futile tllngs ut the
Pope of Homo. The pope is the head or a
great church ami many of Its members
are the fellow citizens of Dr. SlcU'od. Is
it courteous or Christian, on the part of
a minister of the gospel, a doctor of di
vinity, a professor of Christianity, to give
them offence without provocation'.'
Couldn't Dr. Mcleod have eaten his hug
gis in peace last night at the llurns ban
quet without trying to stir up religious
rancor? He is really a mild-mannered
man, and It would greutly promote his
peace of mind If ho would wear less re
ligious war paint."
The words 1 used "at the Burns ban
quet" were these: "The gentle l.eo XIII..
1 believe, would, if he could, drop a tear
on the black page of history which (irec
ory XIII. approved. He would. If he
could, drop a tear on It or wipe it out for
ever." That was ull I said that had any
reference, either directly or indirectly, to
the pone of liumdi
The black nnd bioqdy page of history to
which I alluded (the massacre or St.
Bartholomew, was written more than
three hundred years ago. It was an age
of rellgjous, intolerance and of cruel per
secution. That Intolerant and persecut.
Ins spirit was not confined to any one
church. I contrasted that ago and those
lands with this uire nnd with this frr
nnd happy land. I contrasted the nar
row and Intolerant spirit of the Puritans
and Presbyterians of former ages with
their broad and philanthropic spirit now.
I contrasted the conduct of the rough
and merciless Cregory XIII., on the oc
casion referred to, with that of the gentle
anil merciful l.eo XIII., nnd, Inste-id of
"trying to stir up religious rancor" as
you assert I snoke as strong a word as
I could In favor of religious liberty and of
Christian toleration.
1 spoke from manuscript, nnd my manu
script was handed to the reporters. If you
had done m the Justice to publish exact
ly what I dlil say, there would have been
no occasion for your supersensitive edi
torial comment. Von have been imposed
upon by somebody w ho brought to you a
garbled, and. therefore, a false report of
my remarks.
1 have made a pood many "post -prandial"
speeches, both here and elsewhere,
and I think 1 may fairlv' challenge you to
produce a slnvle remark of mine, on such
occasions, that could he tortured Into an
attack upon the pone, or Into an at
tempt "to stir up religious rancor."
1 have had what you are pleased to
call my "futile flings nt the pope of
Home," and at popery In general and I
may have them again, on suitable occa
sionbut my only remark concerning tlie
pope at the llurns banquet on Friday
evening last was a word of honest und
sincere praise. Truly yours,
James McT,cod.

l'KOLIC OP OLD AX YOL'XG
It Mas a (.rent and Pleasant Midwintor
German Family 1'lcnic-ltcautiful lice- -oration.
Splendid .Music and Novel
and Very Pretty Costumes,
' Turner Hall, on Seventh street, was
the M-pife of loud but decorous revelry
from .:.U o'clock last night until after
3 o'clock this inorniifg. The occasion
was the twenty-ninth annual masquer
ade ball of the Turn-Vereln, and If
mirth. romping, pleasant dancing, novel
and artistic costuming, bountiful di-co-rutlons,
good music, good lunch and
intermingling of children and older
Germans If all these count for any
thing, they counted for a right royal
good time last night.
For many years the Turners' mas
querade has been one of the most an
ticipated events among the Herman ele
ment, and last night's affair seemed to
be as productive of fun nnd pleasure
as was Its average predecessor. In
the halt there were possibly four hun
dred persons, the ages ranging as
would those In a family. Perhaps the
majority of those present were young
ludies and young men, but there were
scores of children of from 6 or 7 to 13
years of age and a proportionate num
ber of pu rents.
To the uninitiated onlooker the ball
wus a large family picnic In winter
time, in which dancing, masks, cos
tumes and ull that went with them
conspired to make a vust amount of
fun unl frolic in which old nnd young
seemed to derive an equal umount of
pleasure and amusement.
.Maskers in the Grand .March.
At 9.S0 o'clock began the grand
march, which contained only costumed
and masked dancers, excepting the
four following, who led the march and
whose insignia consisted of colonial
wigs and a knot of varl-colorcd ribbons
attached to the left shoulder: Edmund
A. Bui tl, Nelson Teets, Carl Stalber and
Frederick Bruuer. Tho large Moor space
wus taxed to lis utmost hy the evolu
tions of tho marchers whose ninny col
ored and as variously styled costumes
presented a charming scene as the lines
wound nnd Interwound about the hall.
Above them and on the walls were
hundreds of Hags nnd streamers and a
mass of hunting, the stars and stripes
predominating and the red, white and
black of the Fatherland being second
in profusion.
Then was begun a dancing pro
gramme of twenty-six numbers which
Included severnl leap year round
dunces.
After the lifth number there was
given under Prof. Stalber's direction a
gipsy song anil dance tableau by Slisses
Marie Porcher, Kiitnia, SIcArthur, Cur
lie and Slary Neuflcr, Siena Woelkcr.
Lily HauU, Violet Fahlcnholt and
Louisa Blatter, nnd Kdward Elsele,
Timothy Quitman, Sir lluber, Henry
und William Voekroth, Carl NeillTer,
William Kunimer und Alitor Nolh.
These eight young men nnd Professor
Stalber, all active Turners, later gave
on exhibition of tumbling. .
Between Yi and 1 o'clock lunch was
served upstairs.
Members of the Committee,
Nelson Teets. Charles A. Bechtold
and Fred lirauer, were the floor com
mittee. The committee of arrange
ments consisted of Louis Nolh, Curl
Netlffer. Victor Noth, L. Geseheldle,

REV. DR. FLOYD'S VIEWS.
Uclicvcs in Supporting .Methodist Min
isters According to Term nf Service.
At ii regular meeting of Slethodist
ministers, presided over by Rev. Dr. TV.
H. Peurcc, in Kim Park church yester
day morning, Rev. Dr. L. C. Floyd rend
u paper entitled "Supernnuates."
Dr. Floyd assumed thut superanu
ated preachers should be supported ac
cording to their term of service instead
of according to their needs, as nt pres
ent. For Instance, If a minister has
been for twenty years nctlvely engaged
in the ministry he should receive double
the llnaiicinl aid of one who had served
but ten years. Dr. Floyd's views have
been advanced in the Slethodist minis
try generally for many years.
