VERDICT AGAINST THE CITY
Jury Finds It Liable for the Overflow
of the Tine Brook Sewer.
MRS. WALSH GETS DAMAGES
Defendant's Side of the .450.000 Trespass
Suit Was Opened by Attorney W. II.
Jesstip, Jr.-Tcstlroony of llnglnccr
(iiittnun, Who Kan the Train.
A verdict of $162 for the plaintiff was
rendered yesterday In the suit brought
by Julia Walsh against the city of
Scranttin for damages to her proiwrty
by the overflow of the I'll llrook sew
er in July, 1S92. There are several other
property owners having suits against
the city for the sunie cause, and the
outcome of the Vvulsh case, which was
the first one tiled, wus owull'td with
a good deal or interest, -f lie planum
alleged that Ills property was damaged
by the water to the extent of JOK).
Hefore Judge McClure in No. 2 court
room the defendant's nidi 'f the case
In the jr.n.lKiO trespass suit of Havld (1.
Jones upainst the Deluware ami Hud
son Tamil company was opened yester
day. The engineer, Mr. Oilman, of
Wilkes-1 In ire, who was In chaise of
the locomotive of the train that caused
the accident, wus on the stand when
court adjourned, and ho was being
i ross-eNamined by Major Kverett War
ren. He will be recalled this morning for
further cross-examination. The story
told by him shows the line of defense.
He maintains that the treln was mov
ing along slowly when .Me carriage
containing Hughes and Jones was
struck and thut he succeeded In coming
to a full stop the length of a caboose
below the eosslns;. The last stop he
made was at Oreen Hldge before com
ing to the Carbon street crossing and
the enrrlne was not using any steam
coming down after making that stop,
as it is down grade.
Ho Whistled for llrnkes
He did not see the carrlajre until the
engine was on the crossing. The dome
and s.vd bov would obstruct his view
in the direction of the north bound
track. His fireman and the head
brakemon of the train were riding In
the cab nd one of them shouted to
him. He Immediately reversed the en
gine nnd whistled for brakes. There
were mi air brakes on the train and It
was made up of eighteen cars besides
the caboose. After leaving Green
Kldge the train was not to stop that
night until It reached Mill Creek. The
trip from Carbondale to Oreen Ridge
was made In. an hour. These facts were
brought out on cross-examination.
The witness has been a freight engi
neer on the Delaware and Hudson road
since '8SS; before that he was a lire
man nnd has been In the employ of the
company since 1S76 or thereabouts. He
Is perfectly familiar with nil the cross
ings nt grade between 'Wilkes-Burre
and Cnrbondale, and in answer to a
question bv Major Warroti,' he admit
ted that the Carbon street crossing is
the most dangerous along the entire di
vision; that Is when a person Is travel
ing feoin the central city to the North
Knd. The defense has twenty more
witnesses to be heard.
Suit over n llccr Hill.
In the main court room before Judge
Ounster the assumpsit suit of H. Koeh
ler & Co., of New York, against D. V.
Kearney, of this city, Is on trial. It
was called when court convened in
the morning. Attorneys Wntson and
Dlehl are in the interest of the plaintiff
and Attorneys T. 1'. Iloban nnd J. El
liot Koss represent the defendant.
The suit Is brought to recover $3,000.
alleged to be due as an unpaid balance
for beer, ale und porter furnished to
the defendant. Mr. Kearney contends
that they are asking him to pay for
goods that were not lit to be sold and
which lie could nut dispose of. He ud
mlts owing part of the bill, but refuses
to pay for 332 tons of Ice he Is charged
up with nt the rate of $2 per ton. This,
he said, the company agreed to let him
have gratis. The case will take up to
day and part of tomorrow.
In No. 3 before Judge Edwards the
suit of A. H. Munn against Sarah Grif
fin wus tried and given to the jury,
but a verdict wns not rendered at ad
journment. Attorneys 8. 1!. Price und
II. M. Hannah represented the plain
tiff nnd Attorneys J. Alton Davis and
John H. Colllngs were for the defend
ant. About twenty-five years ago
Aaron e.riffln confessed judgment to
the plaintiff and he afterward became
a bankrupt. This cancelled all debts
against his personal estate. He died In
llcgnn an Action in Vjcctmcnt.
After his death his heirs began ac
tion In ejectment against Ambrose
Mulley nnd tjthers for a certain tract
In tlw North End. The plaintiffs won
and thereupon Mr. Munn tried to re
vive the judgment and collect It out
of the property to . which title was
nevvlv estaidlshed by the ejectment
hsuit. Judge Edwards ruled that the
bankruptcy proceedings divested the
judgment of its validity and he In
structed the Jury to find a verdict for
the defendant. A rule for a new trlul
was forthwith granted and It will be
argued before the three judges.
The suit of 8. Armello against J.
Arlgonl and others was called next
before Judge Edwards. Attorney n. A.
Zimmerman , represents the plaintiff
and. Attorney John F. Scragg, the de-
heads the list with l.r.41. Many other
Interesting comparisons ran be made
from the table.
The law directs that the assessment
should have been completed before Jan
uary 1, but having been handicapped
by the refusal of the board of revision
and appeals to allow them the use of
the 1895 books for making comparisons,
the assessors say that their work was
made much more difficult and hence
the delay. However, as the law Is not
mandatory no serious consequences

THEY TOOK A YACATIOX.
Members of Kstimato Committee When
Drought I oco to 1'nec with the State
ment of I'Mtinatcd Kxpendltures Take a
l ew Pays to Think. '
The estimates committee organized
last night by elcv-tlng Charles F. Wag
ner, of select council, chairman. There
were present besides the members of
the committee City Controller Wld-
muyer and City clerk I.avelle.
The estimate of expenditures as pre
sented by the city controller, was dis
tributed In printed form by the city
clerk. The committee decided to take
some time to look Into the est I inn I es
and so adjourned until next Monday
evening without making any move to
frame the appropriation ordinance.
rho only new matter that came be
fore the committee wus a suggestion
by Mr. I.auer that the proposed levy
of thirteen and six-tenths mills be
slightly Increased by a special levy to
provide for the purchase of the Rey
nolds and Canavan tracts adjoining
Nay Aug park, upon which the op
tions secured by the city expire in the
spring. His suggestion did not meet
with favor, however.
Mr. Keller expressed the opinion that
there were more necessary demands
than an addition to the park, and fur
thermore he stated that It would be
better to Improve the land that is now
comprised In the park than to buy
more. -At nil events the proposed ad
dition can be secured nt any time by
condemnation proceedings, he stated,
and possibly at a better llgure than
that at which it Is now offered. His
sentiments met the approbation of
the members, who expressWl them
selves and Mr. I.auer himself did not
further Insist nn his suggestions after
the pulse of the committee was ascer
tained. In regard to Tripp's pnt k, Mr. I.auer
said In answer to an iiuiuiiy of one of
the committee that ho had given up
hopes "-of securing it this year. The
trustees of the estate have promised
to reserve the tract which Mr. Latter
designs for a park and will give the
city nn option on it In the near future.
DEMOCRATIC II KA DQUARTERS
Located in tho odd follow ' lliiilding on
Wyoming Avcntio.
The Democratic rlty committee has
engaged two rooms nnd established a
campaign headquarters on the second
floor of the Odd Fellows' building on
Wyoming avenue. The rooms will be
open each day and evening until after
election.
A Tribune reporter found the head
quarters occupied by about twenty-five
prominent Democrats at 8 o'clock last
night. It had been announced that the
gathering would be a conference of the
executive and auxiliary committee
and that the latter had been chosen
Tiitsday nlsht In the office of C. (1.
Holantl, the treasurer candidate. Mr.
Roland and Mayoralty Candidate Ral
ley told the reporter that the names
of the auxiliary committee could not
be made public, as the list was not
complete, and several changes would
be made. They were unable to answer
positively a question relative to
whether the Democrats will conduct a
speechmaking campaign; that, they
said, would not be determined for sev
eral days.
Last night's conference was almost
entirely devoted to giving suggestions
and information to ward workers, und
appearances Indicated that the organi
zation Is well perfected.
STOLE A COBBLER'S SICN.

A TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE
Pitiful Story of Suffering of a Young.
Married Couple.
TRAMPED FROM BALTIMORE
llesecd food. Slept In llarns and While
Stricken Down w ith I ever the Hus
band Prinks Lackawanna River
Water In Large Ouantit!e.
The police station Is a channel through
which many a pitiable, story is brought
to light but it Is seldom thut a sadderone
Is related there than thut which wns
told yesterday afternoon by a young
married couple, Mr. anil Mrs. Kdwurd
I lit inks, who arrived there about 3
o'clock seeking shelter nnd care.
The husband Is a strongly built, hon
est looking mini and the wife Is good
looking and of 11 refined appearance.
Uoth tell u straightforward story and
gave no cause for the slightest sus
picion that they were exaggerating.
During the big strike In Chicago there
wus a lull in the bridge building trude
which Hi. inks followed, and having put
by 11 little money he decided to strike
out to lietter his fortunes. He went
first to Steelton and then to Kultimore.
He worked ut his trade in the lutter city
until he lost his job through the dull
ness of the times und then having spent
his savings, went to work on an oyster
boat. Five days of this hard life was
ull that he could stand und finally, with
out money or friends, in desperation he
and his wife started to walk to their
home in Chicago.
Two weeks ago they left Kultimore.
and with the exception of a few lifts
ulong the road by kind hearted wagon
ers they walked the entire distance,
begging food wherever they could get
It and sleeping In barns at night.
I nable to (in Any l-'nrther.
The husband contracted n heavy cold
while working on the oyster bout und
the exposure of the journey threw him
into a fever. The wife's limbs become
swqllen from the trumping nnd she
also took a heavy cold nnd on Monday
night they found themselves about four
miles below here unable to go any far
ther. They aptilied to a party living along
the road for permission to sleep In his
bnrn but he told them to go to Scrantnn
nnd see the poor authorities. This to
them was a physical Impossibility so
they sought shelter in a tool shanty
on the railroad which according to
thelh description must be In the neigh
borhood of Taylor. Here they were
found yesterday by a party of young
men who were going skating who did
everything In their power to alleviate
their sufferings and helped them to nn
electric car and paid their fare to the
city.
Arrived at the station house the hus
band utterly collapsed and was seized
with violent vomitings. Sirs. Duggnn
hastily summoned Dr. Fulton, the
police surgeon and he directed that the
man be taken to the hospital as soon
us possible and advised thut the woman
be given care and nourishment. The
husband had a high fever which the
doctor easily explained after his diag
nosis, but the extremely violent vomit
ing nnd retching with which he wus
constantly subject to puzzled the doc
tor until after some questioning he
learned that the man In order to sat
isfy his feverish thirst hnd on the pre

This action will probably bring about
