MAYOR'S REQUEST"
RECEIVED ANLV FILED
Board of Health Take a Firm Stand
Against Interference.
POSITION THE MEMBERS TAKE
Has Always Been Onttide the Pale of
Politics and They Waal to Keep It
ThereBoard Reorgaaixed aad All
the Old Officers Wera Re-elected.
Opioion of the Mayor.
The board of health met yesterday
afternoon and after 'transacting the
usual routine business adjourned and
then proceeded to reorganize by re
electing M. J. Kelly president and At
torney Walter K. Brlggs secretary. The
reorganization may result In litigation,
Mayor Bailey alleging that it was il
legal. At 3.15 Mr. Kelly called the last meet
ing of the old board to order, all of the
members responding to their names.
Secretary Briggs read his report show
ing that during the month of June the
number of deaths reached the unusually
high figure of 145. There were r.2 mar
rages, hi births, 4S contagious diseases
and 11 deaths from contagious diseases.
Health Officer Allen made a verbal
report of the unsanitary condition of
affairs at Fifteenth and Luzerne
streets where surface water lodges. A
sewer Is badly needed. Attention was
also called to the condition of the Moun t
Pleasant Ravine and councils will be
usked by the board to do something to
make the place less a menace to health
than it Is now.
CONFERENCE WITH DEALERS.
Food Inspector Thomas reported that
he had made C19 visits during the month
and condemned 1C0 quartt of milk. He
cautioned ten persons who were selling
milk not up to the standard. According
to Mr. Thomas no bob veal has been of
fered for sale in the city recently. He
has not yet completed his census of the
cows that supply Scan ton with milk but
thinks the number is between four and
five thousand. He now has over three
thousand listed.
On motion of Colonel Ripple It was
decided to invito the wholesale milk
dealers of the -ity to a conference with
the board with a view to adopting a
plan that will ensure a pure milk supply
for Scranton. A communication was re
ceived from Dr. Church, a Dickson ave
nue veterinary surgeon, saying that he
had examined the herd that supplies
the North End milk company and found
them free from tuberculosis. At the
suggestion.' of Dr. Bentley he will be
asked to tell the board what method he
used In making the examination. The
committee that visited the city reser
voirs was Instructed to report at the
next meeting and after Dr. Allen had
explained the necessity of a sewer In
Park Place the board adjourned .
THE REORGANIZATION.
Dr. W. A. Paine moved that the board
proceed to reorganize but President
Kelly said that before that motion was
put he wanted to have read a com
munication from th- mayor. It was as
follows:
Scranton, Pa., July 2, ISKfi.
To the Board of Health, City of Scranton.
A study of the act of assembly under
which your body was created shows thut
grave questions exists touching the status
of 4wo of your members. The"e questions
relute wholly to the term of service.
Another question which lias arisen con
cerns the right uf a third member to
serve upon your board, the objections in
this case being that he holds two olfices
which are incompatible. This being the
condition of affairs and knowing that you
are as unwilling to participate in a ques
tionable organization as 1 am to see you
do so, I ask you to postpone reorganiza
tion until such time as these, questions
shall have been thoroughly Investigated
and the legal status of the members de
teiinlned. 1 ask this in order that futuie
complications mav be avoided.
James . bailey. Mayor.
Henry Zelgler moved that the may
or's communication be laid on the table,
and Dr. Bentley seconded the proposi
tion. Mr. Kelly thought it would be a
little harsh to take such action und
Mr. Zelgler modified his motion to make
it read that the communication be re
ceived and filed.
SELECTING THE OFFICERS.
On motion of Dr. -Paine Mr. Kelly was
re-elected president without opposi
tion and after the salaries of the health
officer and secretary were fixed at the
same figures us last year Walter E.
Briggs was re-elected secretary on mo
tion of Mr. Zelgler. Dr. Bentley re
nominated Dr. W. E. Allen for health
officer und he was unanimously chosen.
The secietary was Instructed to re
quest Mayor Pulley to detail Officer
WIHium H. Burke for sanitary duty, he
having occupied that position for years.
The meetings of the board will be held
on the first Thursday of each month at
3 p. m.
After the meeting the members said
their action was not Intended as a slap
at Mayor Bailey. The board is an In
dependent body with duties well de
fined by the state, and they want to
continue In future as In the past to
conduct their business without Inter
ference and without reference to poll
tics. When It was first constituted by
a Republican mayor In lSi'O It was made
up of three Democrats and two Repub
licans nnd has since remained outside
of the pale of politics. They would like
to see it continue In that way.
MAYOR BAILEY'S OPINION.
"The reorganization of the board of
health today I consider, entirely Il
legal," jiald Mayor Bailey, In conversa
tion with a Tribune reporter after the
meeting. "I have sought a legal opin
ion with reference to this whole board
of health matter and until such time as
I receive it cannot tell the readers of
The Tribune what steps I will take. To
night I will send in one appointment
for the board to councils. Two other
vacancies I believe exist. Dr. Paine, I
think, has no right to serve on the
board; and the term of Mr. Kelly, I be
lieve, has expired.
"Several weeks ago I sent a letter to
Dr. Paine explaining to him that I was
of the opinion that he could not serve
on the board of health and poor board
at the same time, but he has not seen
fit to acknowledge the receipt of my
communication."
CALEDONIAN GAMES.
Nome of the Leading Features of nn
Interesting Programme.
There is something picturesque and
unique in the annual games of the
Caledonian Club, and probably this Is
,the reason that they never fall to at
tract the largest crowd of holiday
makers on the Fourth.
The athletic contests have a distinc
tively Auld Lang Syne flavor about
them and bring one back to the days
when well developed brawn and muscle
1 wera the true test ot perfect manhood.
The programme prepared for Saturday
Is the most elaborate the Scots have
ever prepared and the entries are so
numerous that competition for suprem
acy is sure to be sharp and keen.
Besides the usual athletic events
which number about thirty in all, there
will be some excellent exhibition danc
ing by Daisy Dawson, Instrumental
music by Lawrence's band and orches
tra, and a distinct novelty in the shape
of an Illuminated balloon ascension
with parachute drop and fireworks dis
play. The latter takes place In the
evening and will be one of the most
marvelous sights ever witnessed at
Laurel Hill Park.
SATURDAY'S Bid PARADE.
Executive Committee Has Completed
Its Ceneral Arrangements.
All the general arrangements for the
big Fourth of July parade tomorrow
have been completed. This fact was
made known at last night's meeting of
the executive committee In the board ot
trade rooms. It developed that about
(250 was lacking to meet the total ex
pense of the celebration, which will
cost something over (1.500. In the ab
sence of Mayor Bailey, A. F. Duffy acted
as chairman of the meeting, which was
a brief one and adjourned to meet again
tonight.
The positions of the bands and other
music organizations In the parade was
left to the discretion of the grand mar
shal. The ragmuflln and all other fan
tastic features will be abandoned. City
and county officials will have convey
ances furnished 'them by the carriage
committee. Carriages will also be
placed at the disposal of veterans who
will not be able to stand the fatigue of
marching.
Individually, the members of the com
mittee feel sanguine that the parade
and firework)! display will be complete
and highly successful.
BURIAL OF MER0L0.
Services at the County JailNo One
Attended the Funeral Save the Un
dertaker and His Assistants.
Crescenzo Merolo, who on Wednesday
paid his penalty to the law for the
murder of Emanuel Loro, was burled
yesterday in Hyde Park Catholic ceme
tery. In the morning Rev. Dominic Landro
went to the county jail and conducted
services over the remains in the prison
morgue and then Undertaker Raub and
his assistants conveyed the remains to
the Hyde Park Cathollo cemetery,
where Interment was made.
None of Merolo's countrymen were
present at the Jail when the services
were held or at the graveside when the
body was consigned to mother earth.
It was the funeral of a man absolutely
without mourners or friends.
TWO CHILDREN IN JAIL.
Prlccbnrg Woman Compelled to Take

Mrs. Oleska Olshefskl, of FMceburg,
and her two children, one 0 months and
the other 3 years old were received at

BIO SALES, BID CROWDS.
Kreat Reduction iu Prices at Dnvi
dow's Clothing and Outfitting Re
tirement Sale, Lackawanna
AveiiHe.
When a retail merchant announces
that he will reduce the price of his
goods from 10 to 15 per cent. It is be
cause lie wants to reduce his stuck. It
Is not so In this case. Davtdow at 222
Lackawanna avenue Is going to retire
from his present business on account
of ill health and Is sucrlllclug every
article In his big store at from 25 to CO
per cent, below the usual selling price.
It Is not a "fake sule." Only a few
weeks ago Mr. Davldow began business
and everything his store contains la
new, so he isn't advertising the sale in
order to do a big business for a short
period. The sale is Just what it Is
claimed to be. Everything will be sold.
The store contains men's and boys'
summer clothing, hats, caps, shirts and
In fact all the gooc3 and articles
found In a complete clothing and fur
nishing store. To tell what all these
articles are would require a great deal
of space, but some of them are, neck
wear, suspenders, hosiery, outing gar
ments, linen, underwear, cuffs and col
lars, handkerchiefs, sweaters and
gloves.
The cut In prices Is just what is claim
ed. For Instance, men's suits have
been reduced from $9 und (30 down to
(5 and (15, and youths' suits In propor
tion. Nearly everything has been cut
to one-half Its value. This cut doesn't
apply to one line of goods either; It
includes everything.'
Customers need not fear that the big
rush of business will make it Impossi
ble for them to get waited on. An ex
tra force of competent salesmen and
saleswomen has been especially enquir
ed for the sale by Mr. Davldow. It is
sales that he wants and not any one
class of custom, so buyers will be sure
to receive attention and get what they
want.
The time to get what you want i3
now. The store will be kept open from
7 o'clock In the morning until 9 o'clock
at night until the stock Is entirely sold.
ASkTTaS A FAVOR,
Leave Your Orders Early Today.
The Scranton Cash store ask it as a
favor that persons Intending leaving
orders with them for Saturday or Sun
day would kindly do so as early as
possible today, as the Fourth and Sun

difficult delivering goods Friday even

FIRE IN A HOTEL
JERMYN STORE
Destroyed the Stock but Did Little
Damage to Building.
THE BLAZE ON THE SOUTH SIDE
Destroyed the Home and Barn of
John Myers, of Stone Avenuc--Hi
Horse Was RoastedAn Electric
Wire Fires the Handsome New
Resideace of William A. Connell on
Vine Street.
A fierce fire at 4.43 yesterday after
noon destroyed all the stock in the mil
linery store of Dougherty, Thomas &
Co., successors to Leah Jones, in Hotel
Jcrmyn, and damaged the walls so thut
they will have to be replastered. The
floors were not much affected by the
fire.
In less than ten minutes after the
alarm was turned In from box 22, at the
corner of Spruce street and Wyoming
avenue, two thousand persons were
gathered on the scene.
The chemical engine was the first to
arrive and that was put to use, but the
combustible material and the great
amount of it In the rear part of the
store made it necessary to turn on a
stream of water. With both working
together the fire was got under control
In fifteen minutes.
The firm carried a stock of about
(8,000 and it was pretty well destroyed.
That which escaped the fire and water
was affected by the smoke which filled
the entire store and made the firemen's
work very difficult. Insurance enough
was carried to about equalize the loss.
The lire originated from a gas stove In
the workroom, nnd there wus a lively
scampering of milliners to the street.
The damage to the store will not ex
ceed (500.
HOUSE AND BARN BURNED.
The fire which caused the alarm at
11.30 last night destroyed the barn and
ruined the home of John Myers, of 1032
Stone avenue, and his horse which was
his chief means of support was roasted
to death In the flames. The household
goods were removed but the hurried
manner in which they were taken out
leaves them worth very little.
Mr. Myers is a German and had a
coinfortrable home at the corner of
Stone avenue and Elm street. He did
Jobs of hauling and was enabled to earn
good wages. He said that he put the
horse In the barn at 6 o'clock yesterday
afternoon and fed it, then locked the
place for the night. Som- of his fam
ily had retired nnd the others were
preparing to when the barn blazed up.
Tho house is close by and It caught In
a few minutes. By the time they got
out the born was a mass of flames
and it was utterly impossible to save
the horse. Assistance reached him and
the furniture was got out. He said that
he carried no Insurance at all, and he
wus to be pitied as he walked around
without any shoes on and half dressed
alter the fire was out and gazed on the
ruins of his home.
FIRE ON VINE STREET.
The handsome new residence of Wil
liam A. Connell, on Vine street between
Clay and Webster avenues, was badly
damaged by fire yesterday morning.
The flames broke out about 7.30
o'clock In . closet on the third floor
and were caused by an electric-light wire
coming in. contact with a gas pipe on u
combination fixture, on the second floor,
sending a current ulong the pipe
through the wall to the floor above
when it caused a blaze. The closet,
attlo and -roof were badly damaged.
The losa will amount to about (1,000.
The Relief, Crystal and Phoenix com
panies responded to the alarm sent from
box 124 and subdued the lire In a very
commendable manner. The dumage
from water was more extensive than It
would have been hud not the chemical
engine become stalled on the Clay ave
nue hill. The Relief company's team
had to be sent down to help them up.
There la a movement afoot to locate
a chemical engine for the protection of
