Another trespass suit against the
Si-rnntim Traction comiuuiy v.as tried
yesterday. The plaintiff Is Mrs. L. L.
Potter, and her attorneys are S. B. Prli-e
nnd J. V. ISrownir.p. Kx-Judge W. H.
J'-ssup and Horace K. Hand. eat., reire
Etnt the eompnny. Mrs. Potter Is a
resident of Green Itliine. Two years
ago she was a passenger on a Green
Hidjre People's car, which jumped the
truck on Oapouse avenue1 near the cor
ner of Phelps street. Hhe was thrown
out on her head and landed on the side
walk. She was then M years of age,
and claims she sustained concussion of
the lintln. She complains now of fre
quent headaches, numbness In her
arms, failing vision, and neuralgia, clso
rheumatism.
Mrs. Potter was examined Tuesday
evening in lr. N. Y. Leet's ottlce by Dr.
I.eet. Ir. O'Brien, Dr. Lonirstreet and
Dr. Kolterts. They were called by the
defendant to testify to her condition.
The four testllied that she hasfin symp
toms at present to show that she sus
tained nny ucuto Injury two years ago.
Dr. O'Brien admitted that Mrs. Potter
very likely had concussion of the brain
as a result uf her frill, but simple con
cussion of the brain is not a dangerous
Injury and persons uffected with It re
cover soon.
The defendant defends on two
grounds: llrst, that Mrs. I'otter was not
Injured to the extent she alleges; sec
ond, that the accident was not the fault
of the company, but was caused by
boys who spread sand and small stones
on the rails. The arguments will be
made to the jury today.
In the replevin suit of Joseph Church
pgntr.tit Wade M. Finn the Jury found a
verdict in favor of the defendant, Jiut
allowed Mr. Church $12 damages fur
some neck yokes, whippletrees, and
stone and dirt riggings which Mr. Finn
seized that he was not entitled to take.
The replevin suit of John J. Howley
against John U Lure and the Scranton
Knitting company win go to the Jury
today. The defendant's case was closed
yesterday and Mr. Howley was on the
stand giving rebuttal testimony. He
maintained that Governor Watres sold
thV building and machinery to him, re
serving only an electric motor and two
other small articles.

WAY TO TRAIN ANIMALS.
Professor Norris (Jives the Method
That lie Pursues.
The men who by some peculiar gift
obtain such control over the lower ani
mals ns to make them obey their slight
est wish, and who successfully train them
to perform thp wonderful feats shown
In the ring or upon the stage, are com
paratively few, and interest and curi
osity regarding them is always groat.
One of these men. who has been uni
formly successful in training animals. Is
Professor Nnrris. who is now in the city (
with his troupe of 100 performing Shet- I
land ponies and dogs. He is a young
man, only 20 years of age, quite modest
und unassuming In manner nnd quite
unlike the typical showman.
The marvelous power which he ex
ercises over his four-footed stars has
been attributed to mesmerism, hypno
tism and like occult sciences, but he
answers the question In one word
kindness. "Treat them with kindness,
and you will find them always ready
and willing to learn how to please you
In return," says he. "A kindly-treated
animal Is always more tractable than
one that ts governed by fear of punish
ment." Professor Norris gave his first
public exhibition twelve years ago, with
a single dog, a small Bkye terrier, which
he had taught a repertoire of llfty-slx
tricks.
The exhibitions will be continued for
the balance of the week at Adams ave
nue nnd Mulberry street. Matinee this
afternoon. Last night the tent was
crowded.

FUNERAL OF FATHER KILCOYNE.
It
Hill Take Place This Morn
ing at 10:30 U'Clock.
At 10 o'clock thla morning the
funeral of the late Rev. Anthony F.
Kllcoyne will be held. The remains
will be brought to St. John's church.
Fig street, and a solemn high mass of
reqrlem celebrated. Interment wilt be
made In St.Joseph's cemetery, Mlnooka.
The dead priest was 37 years old; he
was born In Newport, England, In 13i.
Ills father died there when the priest
wos 5 years old and a year afterward
the family came to this country and lo
cated in Mlnooka. As soon as he was
able to work he went to the coal break
er and from that to the mines, but he
was of a studious disposition and his
leisure time was spent with his books.
After a course in the public schools,
he took up the study of the more ad
vanced branches under the late Profes
sor Jeremiah Hawker, who was then
teaching n private school on the West
Side. His intention was to devote his
life to God and he entered St. Foraven
ture's college, Allegany. N. Y., spend
ing a ye-ar there. Then he went to the
Benedictine college of St. Vincent, at
La t robe, Westmoreland county, and In
one year by hard study finished his
classical course.
He studied philosophy and theology
for two years at St. Mary's seminary,
Baltimore, nnd returned to St. Vincent's
college to prepare fir ordination. Right
Rev. John Meore, bishop of Sr. Augus
tine1, Florida, adopted him Into that eil 1
ivse and he was ordained at Baltimore
fourtee n years ago.
After a vacation spent at home, he
went to St. Augustine to become assist
ant priest In that parish, and he was
then a vigorous young man of strong
constitution. He was transferred next
to assist the pastor of Jacksonville par
ish, and four years after ordination, he
wus made pastor of the parish of Fer-
nandlno.
Three or four times he was forced to
come north from the torrid climate of
Florida, and the last time he came home
was two months ago. His condition be
came dangerous lust Saturday when he
lapsed into unconsciousness, which con
tinued until his death at 10.30 Monday
night.
He Is survived by his mother, Mrs.
Catherine Kllcoyne, to whom his death
Is a severe blow, and by the following
brothers and sisters: Patrick, Michael,
Mrs. Patrick Walsh, and Bridget, of
Cedar avenue, and Thomas, of Duryea.
Rev. Father Kllcoyne was an intlmnte
friend of Rev. F.dward McOlynn, D. D.,
of New York. A telegram was sent to
Bishop Moore yesterday morning.

ing. Attorneys Cornelius Comegys and C
Reynolds Bedford, of this city, went to
Syracuse Tuesday afternoon and met
the party there, accompanying them to
this city. They hoped to be able to in
duce them to stay over for a few days,
but owing to the governor's appoint
ment at the capital the best they could
do was to stay until 8.10 a. m. At S
o'clock the party finished breakfast and
took carriages for a drive through the
city.
t'nder the guidance of Messrs. Com
egys and Bedford they were shown all
that could be crowde'd into two short
hours. The governor expressed himself
as much Impressed with the size and
Importance of Scranton and the very
evident push and enterprise of her citi
zens. The whole party regretted that
circumstances would not permit them
to stay longer and become better ac
quainted. INTEREST WAslioT PAID.
Itor.dlioldcrs Tul.e Action Against the

company. The works are situated on
Green Ridge street near Albright ave
nue and cover two acres of ground,
with buildings, mr.chlnery, boiler houses,

the action of the bondholders through
the deposit company, the trustee.

COURT DISSOLVED

For That Reason Jadge Edwards in
His Opinion Pats nn End to the
Preliminary Injunction nnd Mill
Allow the Merit of the Case to lie
Considered t'uon Argument of the
Demurrer at 11 ' nter Hate.
Judge Edwards yesterday dissolved
the preliminary injunction granted in
the equity suit of the Barber Asphalt
company against the select and common
councils of the city. The company u3kod
to have Clerk nation ol the lower
branch enjoined for certifying to select
council the ordinance granting to Lnnn
Bros, the contract tor utvmg Monroe
avenue. The court granted a prelimin
ary injunction.
Three of four days later City Solicitor
J. II. Torrey, representing' the defend
ants, tiled a demurrer holding that noth
ing definite had been done In awarding
thfe contract and for that reason it was
too soon to Invoke the aid of court of
equity. The argument on the de
murrer will come up In three weeks at
the term of argument court brgiunlng
Monday, J una 28.
The preliminary Injunction which had
been In force since Thursday, June 21,
kept the select council from considering
the ordinance for paving Monroe ave

OPINION IN THE CASK.
The contention in this case involves the
action of the common council of the city
of Scranton In relation to certain bids for
the paving of Monroe avenue, on May 14,
NflS, two bids were submitted to the coun
cil, one by Dunn Brothers and one by the
the Barber Asphalt company. While con
sidering matters pertaining to the third
order of business the council by a vote of
ten to nine adopted the majority report
awarding the contract to the plaintiff.
Before the council adjourned some of the
members left the room, and after dispos
ing of the eighth order of business, one of
the councllmen, who bad voted with the
minority, moved to reconsider the action
awarding the contract to the plaintlut.
This motion was carried.
Motions were thei made and considered
to lay the majority report on the table,
and to adopt the minority report awarding
the contract to Dunn Brothers. The ap
parent result of this coum-llmanlc somer
sault was to nullify the earlier action of
the council and to award to one firm a
contract which, so fur as the common
council wus concerned, hud already been
awarded to another. The plaintiff main.
tains that tho reconsideration, moved and
seconded by members who hud not voted
with tho majority, was Irregular and con
trary to the rules of proe-edure adopted
by the council, and that the only legal
action taken was the one awarding tho
contract to the plaintiff,
ASKED TO RESTRAIN.
We are asked to restrain the clerk of the
common council from certifying to the se
lect council any action awarding the con
tract to Dunn Brothers, und to restrain
the select council from receiving such
certificate from tho clerk and from act
ing upon it.
The defendants demurred to the plain
tiff's bid on the ground that the bid does
not set forth such facts as entitle the
plaintiff to a standing in a court of equity;
that the matters complained of are the in
terlocutory proceedings of a legislative
body and are not subject to correction and
supervision by the court, and that tho
facts set forth, If true, do not constitute
an injury in law.
The main questions Involved in this cose
are:
. (1) Has the plaintiff any rights, in the
D resent status of the proceedings of iho
council, which entitle it to maintain a bill
and to Invoke the restraining power of an
injunction?
(2) Was the action of tho common coun
cil, In reconsidering tho question of award
ing the contract referred to, illegal?
U) It Illegal, Is the wrong of such a na
ture as to be properly subject to the cor
rection of a court of equity :
It is contended on the part of the de
fendant that we -cannot inquire into the
obscure or non-observance of the rules
regulating the procedure of the councils
In their legislative acts, and the case of
Kllgore against Magee und others 8.1 fa,
4ol. is cited to that effect. It is there de
cided that an alleged disregard cf the
forms of legislation required by the con
stltutlon in the passage of a law Is not the
subject of Judicial inquiry, and that when
a law has been passed and approved and
certified in due form, the courts cannot go
behind the law as duly certified to inquire
Into the observance of form In its passage,
IT DOES NOT APPLY.
This Is true as to enactments by the leg.
l.dature of tho state, but it has ben ex
pressly ruled in Alloonu city ugalnsi Bow
man. 171 Pu. 3u7, that the presumption
in fave.r of the constitutional regularity
of iiroceedings of the le'gislutlvo depart
ment of the government iloes not apply
to the regularity and legality of the lro
ceedir.gs of municipal corporations. We
therefore, hold that a court of equity myy
Inquire into the regularity of municipal
proceedings, and that wo are not inc:ui:
ed by the certlllcate of the proper officer.
But there are other difficulties In the
case now before us. There Is yet no com.
plete legislative act on the part of the
counc lib touching tne paving contract.
There Is no action by both councils. The
nroceeillngs are In the Interlocutory singe.
Can we Interfere before final action by tho
municipal authoritler? I do not propose
to decide this inquiry now. The defend
ants have tiled n demurrer, and according
to our uractlce the parties are entitled to
be h3ard on the demurrer at aigument
court.
1 am, nevertheless, clearly of the opln-
Inn that the Dreliniinary injunction grant
ed In this case thould be dissolved. The
contention of the plnlntlff Is too doubtfi l
to allow the continuance or tho. injunc
tion, and in accent nee with the well-es
tablished principle that a pieiir.ilnnty in
junction should not bo continued In a
doubtful case, the rule is uisrnargeu u.m
the preliminary Injunction litretororc si
lowed Is dissolved. The merits of the casi
can he considered u.-von argument of tho
demur: er.
