POLITICAL GOSSIP.
"Matters political are in an unusual
state of quiescence." said State Senator
E. B. Hardcnbergh, of Honesdale to a
Philadelphia Press reiiorter Friday
evening at the Walton. "I cannot re
member the time when there was quite
so much apathy preceding a presiden
tial campaign. This is owing doubtless
to the fact that the Democrats have
given up the contest in advance. This
being the fact, it Is merely a choice of
men within the Republicans ranks, and
as the woods are full of choice presi
dential timber there is little need of get
ting excited so far in advance of the
Republican national convention. We
have no silverites Xi my section to ex
cite our alarm. I have just returned
from a hurried visit to Washington.
While there I saw no signs of a Camer
on boom, nor are there any signs of
one In my section. Senator Short, of
Idaho, I see, has already declared In
favor of Senator Cameron for the Re
publican nomination at St. Louis, and
if he Is nominated the silver states will
be compelled to do trie trick all by
themselves."
'I I' 11
The number of candidates for offices
under the incoming Democratic city ad
ministration is Increasing dally. Now
the Republicans who assisted In elect
ing the Democratic ticket are begin
ning to press their claim. For their
services during the campaign a number
of them were told that they could dic
tate a certain number of appointments.
They ni beginning to dictate in real
earnest' and say in very positive lan
guage that their claims must not be
overlooked. -As all or them want to
have Republicans named and us their
requests if acceded to would practically
leave the Democratic brethren outside
the rvust-work so far as appoint
ments are concerned it Is plain that
disappointment awaits a good many
ambitious ones.
II II II.
Henry Coyle has by no means lost
heurt because he has been twice de
feated by Morgan Hweeney in the
Twelfth ward. "Two years ago Swee
ney beat ne by six votes," said Mr.
Coyle the other day. "This year I cut
his majority down to three votes and
two years hence 1 expect to be able to'
defeut him."

Congressman-at-Large Grow was at
the Walton yesterday. He does not

COLONEL RIPPLE'S LECTURE
lie Will Talk at the Green Ridge Library
Tonight.
There will be a lecture at the Green
Ridge Library this evening by Colonel
Ezra H. Ripple. He is too well known
to the Scranton public to make It neces
sary to more than announce the fact
that he will lecture upon his personal
"Experiences In the Andersonvllle Pris
on," during the war. Those who have
heard this lecture vouch for the fact
that it is most interesting and thril
ling and cannot fall to please and In
terest all.
As In the previous lectures of this
course a silver free-will offering will
be taken at the door. The lectures are
being given to raise money for the
benefit of the library; they are both
interesting and Instructive and admis
sion is well worth at least twenty-five
cents.
It is made optional to give the small
amount of ten cents to those who wish
the benefit of these lectures and can
not afford more. But the liberal num
ber of pennies and five-cent pieces
found In the plate make it necessary to
remind some that there' is no silver
coin smaller than a ten cent piece.
NEW STEAM LAUNDRY.
Will Be Located on Adams Avenue and
Known as the Crystal.
Hugh Gallagher, Joseph P. Nolan and
George Manley have entered Into part

hardware store of B. K. Ionard. His
resignation from that position went in
to effect Saturday night. The third
member of the firm is George Manley
for many years connected with the
Lackawanna laundry.
Those three gentlemen form a strong
combination and will unquestionably
bring the Crystal laundry Into prom
inence. II. II. ARCHER KESIGNS.

TWO INHUMAN VULTURES
Bring Yoiing GIrU to This City for
Immoral Purposes. "'
RESCUED FROM THEIR DANGER
Taken In Charge by the Police and
Sent Back to Their Parents In .
Stroudsburg-Descrlptioa
of the Procurers.
That a systematic traffic In young
girls is carried on to supply the Immoral
houses of this city has been known to
the police for some time, but owing to
the care which these fiends exercise to
cover their tracks and prevent de
tection the principals In the trans
actions have so far succeeded In evad
ing arrest. Noiv, however, a case has
come to light which, if the police do not
become lax, should result In the appre
hension of at least two of these bar
terers In human souls.
About 10 o'clock Saturday night two
girls neither over 17 years of age were
picked up on Lackawanna avenue and
given shelter at the police station. To
the officer In charge they told that their
names were Nellie Carroll and Phoebe
Newzte and that their homes are in
Stroudsburg. They said that they had
heard other girls telling how they went
to Scranton and got good places to
work and earned money to buy nice
clothes and the like and they had about
made up their minds to go to Scranton
and hunt for a position when they fell
In with a young man who agreed to
send them to Scranton and provide
them with positions as waitresses in a
boarding house. They knew their pa
rents would not consent to their leav
ing home so they decided to run away
and after getting settled to write and
tell their folks where they were.
WERE SENT TO THIS CITY.
Saturday, according to the agreement
with the man who had volunteered to
help them carry out their design, they
met him at the Stroudsburg station
and were put aboard the train with the
information that a friend of his would
meet them upon the arrival of the train
a S.fiO In Scranton and show them where
they were to get work. Upon alighting
from the train they were accosted by
a man who, after llndlng out that they
were the girls sent from Stroudsburg,
informed them that he was to take them
to where his friend had secured posi
tions for them.
Re took them to the house of Mad
ame Harris in Oakford court and left
them. They were not in the place over
fifteen minutes before they discovered
the nature of the place and beat a hasty
exit. A couple of railroad men who had
followed the trio from the depot, sus
pecting that all was not right, were
about to enter the house to make some
Inquiries about the two little girls when
they saw them coming out. Not wish
ing to be mixed up In the affair any
more than was necessary they went to
the police station and reported the case
as they knew It. -
This led to the girls being picked up
as soon as they appeared on the prin
cipal streets, yesterday morning they
were sent back to Stroudsburg on the
milk train.
GIRLS VERY INNOCENT.
The girls were exceedingly innocent
even for young country girls, and did
not seem to realize fully the danger to
which they had been exposed. That
they placed such Implicit trust In
strangers Is proof of their unacqualnt
ance with the wiles of the world.
They did not even take particular no
tice of the men who had figured In
their attempted ruin and. could give
only a meagre description of them. Tlie
man they 'met In Stroudsburg, they
said, was a stranger there and had only
been In the town a few days. The
name he had given them was simply
"Bert," saying his friend in Scranton
would know whom they meant.
He wore a bottle-green overcoat and
a stiff hat. of a dark, greenish color.
The man who met them in Scranton
was described as i being quite tall and
slender, with dark red mustache and a
prominent nose. He was about 25 years
of age and had a very glib, sporty way
of talking.
The girls promised to find out if pos
sible who the man in Stroudsburg Is,
If he has not already left there and the
police expect to run down the Scranton
man with the aid of the railroad men
who shadowed him and who it Is
thought will be able to give a fuller de
scription of him. They have a suspic
ion of who the fellow is and will watch
that he does not get out of town.
ORDERED THEM AWAY,
A Tribune reporter In company with
a police officer visited the Harris house
yesterday and was told that the girls
had come there and asked to be taken
In, but on account of their youth they
were told there was no room for them
and ordered away. They, of course,
denied all knowledge there, of being the
employers of the procurers or Of know
ing anything about them.
They could not explain, however, how
It was possible that two little country
girls could come direct from Strouds
burg to their house. .
AN OLD WELL DISCOVERED.
It Is Close to the Koarlng Brook Bridge
Abutment.
Forty years ago a well forty feet deep
and ten feet In diameter was dug on
the Piatt homestead, but It gave no
water and was abandoned the same
summer. For a while the family used
it as an overflow from the cistern and
it was also turned to , account as a
place of ice storage; but a year or so
after it was dug. It was covered over
with a large flagstone six inches thick,
and It remained forgotten and unused
until yesterday about noon.
Some one passing up Piatt place ob
served an opening, resembling the seg
ment of a circle, in the side walk which
runs along the masonry of the ap
proach to the Roaring Brook bridge.
His curiosity was attracted, for the
cavity in the street was not an ordin
ary one. As he peered down Into the
depth he was convinced that a sub
terranean cavern had been formed be
neath the bridge approach by the water
of the rains of the la.it three days.
He communicated his discovery to
others and in an hour the place was
lined with people, anxious to view the
havoc, which they had been led to be
lieve was wrought by the elements with
the great structure that cost so much
of the taxpayer's money. Many Razed
ruefully at the bridge nnd the mnsslve
iron and stone work and wondered if
all or a large part of both would have
to be rebuilt.
MAYOR ON THE SCENE.
Mayor Connell heard the news and
visited the scene. He saw . that the
hole opened Into an old well nnd real
ising the danger that It would be to
the traveling public passing that way,
if It were left unguarded, he ordered
Chief of Police Simpson to detail an
officer to the spot.
Patrolman McHale went on guard at
2 o'clock and remained until a night
patrolman relieved him. Street Com
missioner Kinsley was notified and he
sent two men, a dirt wogon and a team
of horses to fill It up, but the men saw
that they could not accomplish the
result If they worked a week and thy
contented themselves with fencing the
opening In by means of planks laid on
terra cotta sewer pipes stood erect.
That, with the policeman on guard
will serve to keep travelers from tum
bling In until today, when the street
commissioner will get a force to work
sufficient to All It up. There Is about
ten feet of water In it now that will
have to be balled out before any at
tempt Is made to throw In dirt and
stones.
What Is remarkable and astonishing
about it is that while the stone masons
were building the approaches, and be
fore that, when the excavations were
made for the foundations, that the well
was not discovered, for Its inner side Is
not six inches from the masonry and It
eoes down ulmost perpendicular.
STONE SIX INCHES THICK.
Then again, considering the large
area that had to bo covered by the
stones over the mouth of it, and the
fact that they were only six inches
thick, it is a greater surprise that the
massive eranite blocks In the ap
proaches did not break through the
covering. The stone did not reach all
the way across the opening and left the
apace, which dropped in yesterday.
A Tribune reporter visited the well
in the afternoon and afterward called
at the Piatt residence, where he re
ceived the Information that It was dug
in 18.18 and abandoned on not yielding
any water. They did not know that
It was left In such a negligent condi
tion until it caved yesterday. They had
intrusted It to be covered up when the
road was opened up four years ago
and the ground to the east of the roud
was sold for building lots.
The well doeB not endanger the foun
dation of the approaches, but It was ex
tremely dangerous for pedestrians.
TWO WICKEoToXSTABLES.
The Are Charged with Levying Tribute
on Keepers of Msorderlv Houses.
Two minions of the law who are
charged with levying tribute on pro
prietors of disorderly houses, will have
their alleged blackmailing exposed In
court. They are James Clark, con
stable of the Eighteenth ward, and P.
F. Ryan, deputy constable of the
Twelfth ward.
One night last week a man went be
fore Alderman Millar and told him that
he had engaged Clark and Ryan to re
cover I1J7 which he had lost In a disor
derly house; that they had secured the
money from the proprietress, who paid
It out of her own pocket rather than
have any trouble, and that the con
stables refused to turn the money over
to him, thinking that he would ncit dare
to make any fuss about the matter.
As the alderman had on that same
day received a complaint from a wo
niun upon whom these same two wor
thies hud preyed, he did not hesitate to
lesue a warrant and dbnati h an officer
I to bring them in. They have not been
located as yer. but it is expected that
they will be today.
THE ALDERMAN'S MOTIVE.
When they are arraigned. Alderman
Millar Intends to have them also uroxe-
cuted for blackmail. M motive Is not,
1.3 cAiiniiin, iu iiincuui use legui prose
cution of such places, but he is deter
mined that Uluckmaillng persecution
I shall not be carried on In his bailiwick,
at least.
He says he will not lack witnesses.
An attorney came to his ofllce the other
day and cumpluined of Ryan and Clark
having a woman named Lottie Smith
dragged down to the Sixth ward before
Alderman Millett and held for court.
The constables, the attorney said, af
terwards offered to settle the ense. In
this case, as in others In which they are
Implicated, one swears out th informa
tion and the other serves the warrant.
Some time ago they had Lou Shannon
and Lll Henry before Alderman Millett
and Clara Welchel, of "Drug iStore"
fame, and Cora Oliver, of Center street,
also suffered from their attentions. It
Is needless to say that Clark and Ryan
did not prosecute any of their churges
in court.
WAS THE ALDERMAN DRUNK?
The Smith woman, whose house is at
107 Lackawanna avenue, saya that the.
alderman before whom she was given
a hem lug acted as if he was drunk, and
as women of this sort generally know
the difference between drunkenness
and sunstroke, the alderman may have
more to explain than his failure to make
returns of the cases brought by his
patrons.
COMING ATTRACTIONS.

B. Mackle, will be Been in the great
