Concluded from Page 1.
that the Third brigade, which Includes
the Thirteenth, will be given the tip.
The medical Inspection of the Third
brigade took place today. It was made
by Division Surgeon Colonel MeAnless,
who was accompanied on his rounds by
Major Pulton, surgeon of the Thir
teenth, who was brigade medical officer
f the day, and Major Egle, brigade
lurgcon.
In company headquarters throughout
inlay the captains have been busy with
heir clerks preparing the reports that
mst be presented at Wednesday's In
spection. The commission examining
board, of which Colonel Coursen Is a
member, finished its work this noon.
Over forty recently elected officers were
examined. Captain McCousland, of
Company G, will be regimental officer
it the duy. Lieutenant Decker, of Com
pany F. commander of the guard, and
Lieutenant Herman, of Company H,
supernumerary officer of the guard to
morrow. Mr. ami Mrs. William Connell are ex
pected at division headquarters tomor
row and will remain until probably
Thumluy afternoon.
WORK OF THE MORNING.
This inornlutr opened with the sun
in hiding and the air cool. It was In
dicated that the men would get a
pleasant relief from the heat of the
til si two days. Certainly, the company
commanders took advantage of it and
hurried their commands out on the
pal ado ground where there was com
pany and batallion drill for two hours.
Intermissions for rest were brief and
Infrequent, as there Is but one more day
before the regiments will be Inspected
by Inspector General OHM. Today the
First brigade is having the ordeal and
tomorrow the Second will undergo it.
Company C. du&ty, weary and hungry
and looking truly military returned
from 24-liours provost duty in town Just
befoie o'clock. The command was le
lieved from drill duty and will have the
day for rest. .
The first piece of gossip to circulate
this morning concerned the arrest dur
ing the nljrh: of four men. There had
been a great deal of noise about mid
night in one of the streets of the First
battalion. Captain CVrwln, officer of
the day. Insisted that all persons out
side a tent or with a light should be ar
rested If they refused to obey a tinal
request to comply with camp regula
tions. Lieutenant Jessup cominuiider
uf the guard, proceeded to carry out
the order. A poker party was broken
up twice within ten minutes but on the
third upearunce of the guard the tour
arrests took place, the others eluding the
sc,uad. The prisoners were taken to
the guaid tent and were finally dls
chaigecl by Captain Corwtu. The camp
then slept in peace. The episode was
but one of the many such features of
camp lite.
NOTES OF THE CAMP.
The neiieral health of the men continues
to be uood.
Major Fulton, the Thirteenth's surgeon,
is briga-.L' suifceon for today.
Colunel Coursca'a elderly on Saturday

nf thu thiee regimental headquarter
orderlies appointed thus far. Company A
has been successful twice. Private Hull,
of that company, got the appointment to
day. Lieutenants Decker and Davis, of Com
pany K, have successfully passed the first
examination succeeding their elections to

Company B's base ball team is to play a

pany H players are: Allen, c; Posner, p.;
McGulnm-ss. .; Heuuie. lb.; Zung, 2b.;
O'Hara. 3b.; McLaughlin., cf.; Curran, If.;
Cowell. if.
At the tent of Captain Robling, of Com
pany C, is an lce-wuter tank which Is
connected with an electric battery in tbe
tent. A person turning the faucet with
one hand and holding the cup In the other
receives a shock of considerable power.
The novelty has furnished no end of
amusement.
The misfortunes of the recruit are as
varied as they are numerous. Harry
Stallion, a new one in Company D, left
Scranton with fifteen high priced cigars
which he Placed In his csnteen for sure
keeping. The cigars will remain safe
until the cunteen Is broken or some other
good means Is devised for securing them.
Musician Samuel Prltchard. of Company
H. who on Sunday was notified of the
death of his sister, Mrs. Utssner, of uieen
Ridge, has returned home.
Saturday afternoon was a rib-roaster.
At 3 o'clock in a broiling sun all the regi
ments were ordered out on the plain for
drill and the colonels were instructed to
keep their commands going until the ar
rival of Governor Hastings. The commander-in-chief
was expected at 5 o'clock,
but it was an hour later than that when
he reached the Third brigade after work
ing his way up the valley from Lewiston
through the Second and First In the order
named. The governor'ei delay did not
lessen the temperature of the sun's rays,
however. There must have be2n many

hundred sight of relief when a salutt of
twenty-one guns by Battery C, followed
by a cloud of dust and pounding of boots
betokened the governor's approach. He
was accompanied by his staff and troop of
escort cavalry. To the delight of the
weary men he made a rapid swing before
the lines and tha commands were dis
missed. That was ti.15 o'clock and per
mitted but a 15-mlnute rest before the
regiments were again on the plain and
undergoing the strain and rigor of the
dress parade. The usual routln night
ly camp order was gone through with and
no one was sorry for taps and an oppor
tunity to rest. A. T. R.
POLITICAL JOTTINGS.
The People's party will hold a meet
ing tonight In the office of ex-Judge W.
H. Stanton. The identification of the
ex-Judge with the People's, party re
calls the fact that in the 70's he went up
at a pace that made men's head swim
while riding on the crest of the Greenback-Labor
wave.
David Clark, of the Twelfth ward. Is
said to be the next man who will be
named fur patrolman by Mayor Bailey.
If the Republican members of the se
lect council do not oppose him it is said
that several Democratic members are
prepared to give him the knife.
Select Councilman M. E. Clark Is anx
ious to be one of the Democratic candi
dates for county commissioner.
John Demuth, the present minority
county commissioner, will not object if
the coming- Democratic county conven
tion sees fit to re-nominate him.
Hon. Lemuel Amerman finds It dim
cult to reconcile his love for Bryan and
his dislike for the platform on which
the Democratic nominee Is running, yet
he declares that he will support the
Democratic ticket.
C. W. Westpfahl has declined to be a.
candidate for legislature In the Second
district.
In the First and Third legislative dlv
tricts quiet but earnest battles r o
Ing fought for the Republican nomina
tions. The date for the Third district
convention has already been fixed.
FIRE DEPARTMENT NOTES.
Charles Becket, permanent man of the
Eagle Engine company, started on his
ton days' vacation yesterday. '
Work on the new home for the Nay
Aug Engine company at Franklin ave
nue and Page court is progressing rap
Idly. In a few months from now this
company will be installed In the best
equipped and most modern hie depart
ment building in this part of the state.
George Bailey, of Green Ridge, was
yesterday sworn In as stoker of the
General Phinney Engine company by
Mayor Bailey.
The project to locate a chemical en
gine somewhere In the vicinity of Web
ster avenue and Vine street, mention of
which was made recently In The Tri
bune, Is being seriously discussed by
residents of that portion of the city.
The blocks thereabouts are being rap
Idly built up with handsome residences
and under existing conditions of affairs
they are practically without protection
against tire, for on account of the steep
glades leading to that portion of the
city It Is almost an impossibility to get
a tire apparatus up there In time to be
of any service. By locating a company
on the summit of the hill tills difficulty
would be obviated.
Chief Hlckey has secured alarm bells
from the Gainewell Fire Alarm com
pany and will have them placed in the
homes of district engineers, so that
they can be notlHed of a tire simultane
ously with the sounding of the alarm
In the engine houses.

Vlile. APPARITION IN THE CHAIR.
Uhost of Dr. Westerticld Appears to
His Spiritualistic Friends.
Anderson. I rid., July 20. A decided
sensation was occasioned at the Indi
ana spiritualist camp grounds today.
Dr. Westerfleld, the founder of spirit
ualism in the west, and for years presi
dent of the Indiana association, died
within the past year, leaving the office
vacant. The first conference was held
today. A chair was placed on the stage
where he usually sat, and the next in
stant the dozens of mediums started to
their feet. In their medlumlstic state
they said they saw him sitting there as
in life, though those not possessed of
medlumlstic powers could see nothing
on the chair. The alleged apparition
called E. W. Sprugue, a Jamestown, N.
Y., medium, to the chair, and addressed
the assembly through him. He said
he was happy to be present and that he
was now at the head of a greater work
of spiritualism than In life. He prom
ised to be present throughout all of the
sessions, and a vacant chair will al
ways be left for him. Spiritualists are
much enthused; nonbelievers ridicule,
but the mediums and believers are de
cidedly in earnest. ,
Mrs. Oiner, of St. Louis, was the prin
cipal speaker at the camp today. The
attendance is rapidly increasing. Peo
ple are arriving from all karts of this
and adjoining state
ACTION AGAINST
THE POOR BOARD
That Electric Llfhtinf Plant Leads to
AN INJUNCTION IS ASKED FOR
Williasa H. Taylor Objects to the
Actios) of Board In Awarding the
Contract to H. B. Coho & Co., cf
New York-JJoseph Haaaick Seeks
Bedress ia Equity Side of Court.
William H. Taylor, doing business un
der the name and style of the Scranton
Supply and Machinery company, by his
attorneys. Warren & Knapp and Wat
son & Dlehl, commenced an action In
equity yesterday In court against the
Scranton Poor 'District and Directors
W. S. Langqtaff Mrs. Francis B. Swan,
F. L. Terppe, Thomas Shot ten. Dr. W.
A. Paine, Alderman Fred Fuller, and
Patrick J. Mtflfihy. praying for an In
junction to restrain the defendants
from executing a contract with H. B.
Coho A Co., of New York, for the erec
tion of an electric light plant at the
Hillside Home.
The plaintiff says he Is a dealer In
machinery and especially engaged in
the construction and erection of clecric
light plants: that on May 25. 18. the
board, by Mrs. Swan, president of the
home committee, advertised for sealed
proposals for furnishing- and putting in
pluce an electric lighting plant, accord
ing to sneclticatlous, the board reserv
ing the right to reject any or all bids.
The bids were to be received by the
home committee until Friday, July 10,
18.
BASIS OF THE BIDS.
Subsequently to advertising for bids,
specifications adopted by the board
were presented to the plaintiff for ex
amination and to form a basis upon
which bids might be made. These spec
ifications contained among other things
that the "Ideal" engine or its equiva
lent, and the "Eddy" dynamo or its
equivalent should be bid upon; but that
contractors desiring to do so might bid
upon any number of makes or kinds of
(machinery, but must submit distinct
proposals for each make or kind.
The plaintiff says that pursuant to
the advertisement for sealed proposals
he made tils bid and agreed to do the
work for $5,sl4.20. enclosing a certified
check. But before the bid was sent in
notice was received from the president
of the home committee as follows; "ow
ing to the proposed change of location
of new electric light building at Hill
side Home, the committee has decided
to ask all bidders to omit wiring and
piping from their proposals."
THE PLAINTIFF'S BID,
Notwithstanding said notice the
plaintiff agreed in the speidttcafions ac
companying his bid to furnish and put
in pluce ail necessary piping for con
necting engines with the boiler and old
and new boilers with each other, and
using such other appurtenances a. wtre
necessary because he well knew that
the plant could not unci would not be
complete for operation without so do
ing. The plaintiff's bid was to furnish
one "Imperial" automatic engine, man
ufactured by the Weston Engine com
pany, of Painted Post, N. Y.. and a
Standard Western dynamo.
On July 17. the poor board met and
awarded the contract to H. B. Coho
company for 5,Va7..10. not withstanding,
as alleged by the plaintiff. that he agreed
to do the work for $u.bl4.J0 and put In
a better dynamo and better engine.
Judge Edwards granted a rule to show
cause why an Injunction should not Is
sue as prayed for. and made It return
able at chambers court Friday morning.
July 24. l&yti, at 10 o'clock.
ANOTHER Eyl'lTY SL'IT.
Joseph Hannlck. of the Twentieth
waid, began an action in equity to re
strain Contractor Max Phillips from
building a stone wall on Ninth street.
Mr. Hannlck Is represented by Attorney
C. Comegys.
He complains that, belns the owner of
a lot of laud situated at the corner of
Ninth street and Neulls court, said land
being fifty feet front and one hundred
and fifty feet In depth, nevertheless,
Contractor Phllllpx disregarding the
rights of the plaintiff, is now building
a stone wall one hundred feet long, two
feet thick and six feet high, running
parallel with the plaintiff's premises and
ten feet away from his curb line, which
width is wholly Insufficient for the
plaintiff's use as an abutting property
owner.
He says that Ninth street as origin
ally laid out and adopted by the city
was fifty feet wide, and for a space of
thirty years has been a free and unob
structed thoroughfare. Nealls court
has been a thoroughfare for upwards of
thirty years, and these streets have been
used by the plaintiff and those from
whom he claims title.
Judge Edwards granted a preliminary
injunction, returnable for argument
July 25 at 10 a. m. The work which the
court is asked to restrain is a retaining
