THE INSPECTION
IConcluded from Page 1.J
'.ii-cessfiil Inspections. But the rain
was only brief and In the Thirteenth's
imp, especially, there was much of
lnvlality. That this feeling of superior
ly over the other regiments was war
inted was evidenced by a remark by
! neral (tobln to Major Oakford. of
-lantern, and of the Third brigade
'.r.ff. He said he saw no reason why
' Thirteenth should not maintain its
h mamling. A statement of that
:d by a brigade commander and dur
:m inspection of all the cammands
il.-t brigade Is nothing If not weighty.

Mr. and Mrs. William Council. The lat

To The Tribune correspondent he said
he was interested und delighted with his

new to him.

NOTES OF THE CAMP.
The ration issue to the Pennsylvania
guards Is one of the most liberal in
existence, including that of govern
ments. .Major Millar, who Is one of the 'n
spectois Blasting Colonel Mo.-;ll, t,
Inspector-General, has spent over 12
hours per ;!ny In the saddle since Sun
day. Private Foster, of Company D, was
select?.! u' guard mount for Colonel
Coursen's orderly today. His was the
third seieitiou from Company D since
camp opened; Company A has been
honored twice.
Amateur photographers are numer
ous. Their bent Is apparently to secure
snap shots of ludicrous scenes in which
the central figures would probably not
cure to have their friends at home wit
ness. W. C. Scott, first sergeant and com
pany clerk of Company B, was told by
the regulur army officer to whom was
delivered the company's papers at brig
ade headquarters, that the set was the
first out of three brigades that was
complete and that did not require some
question or explanation.
One of Company C's compliments at
Inspection was that Its treasurer's re
port was the first received that exact
ly compared with the counter-record
In the adjutant general's department.
First Lieutenant Raub Is the treasurer
of the company; the papers were pre
pared by W. S. Gould, the company
clerk.
A swarm of bootblacks, "bummers"
und "strikers," each Included In the
category of "camp followers" are with
the Thirteenth In large numbers. They
are a sort of disreputable and hap
hazard lot and their presence In camp
might be objected to, but for the fact
that they are useful In many emer
gencies, seem willing to perform almost
any kind of labor and are loyal to the
companies to which they have attached
themselves. Daily heated controver
sies uniting them and an occasional
lipht over the proticiency of their adopt
ed companies ure the rule. They sleep
on the mess tent benches, get their food
no one knows how, gamble at craps
and cuds hull' of the time und ure us
interested In the doings of the regi
ment a 4 though they formed a recog
nized pait of it.
Private Young, of Company D, who
ears ull the state marksmanship
badges that have been Issued, save in
lS'.'i when the Thirteenth's team con
lined its efforts to winning the matches
trorn New York's Seventh and Twenty
third regiment teams at Creedtnoor,
is attracting no little attention, in
inspection his display of medal troph
ies was noticed by all the inspectors,
one of whom remarked that "Private
Young must go out of the shooting
business if utiyone else wus to get a
chance at marksmanship notoriety." He
and Prlvute Stone, also of the rltle
leuni, und of Company D, reached here
Tuesday noon and returned to Scruuton
today. The other members of tle team

WATER SUPPLY FOR
JERMYN BOROUGH
Pros and Cong of the Situation Argued
Before Judf e Qunster.
CONTENTION OF THE LITIGANTS
Water Company Claims That Its
Valuable Improvements Will Be
Rendered Useless if the Borough
Constructs Its Own Water Works.
Mount Vernon Street Railway In
Junction Prococdings-.Intcresting
Point Raised.
Two equity cases were heard before
Judge Qunster in chambers yesterday.
In the morning a hearing took place In
the case against Jerniyn borough,
where the action was brought to re
strain the borough from constructing a
water works to supply the town with
water from an artesian well, now be
ing bored. The other case was heard
In the afternoon. It was the action to
restrain the Mount Vernon Street Rail
road company from laying Its tracks
in the borough of Winton.
In the first named case Attorneys A.
J. Colborn, Jr., E. C. Newcomb and I.
II. Burns represented the defendant,
and ex-Judge Jessup, C. H. Wells and
S. B. Price were attorneys for the plain
tiff. The people of Jermyn are at pres
ent supplied with water by the Jer
myn & Rushbrook Water company.
Those who object to the increase of
Indebtedness are members of the com
pany and others are heavy tax payers.
It is alleged that according to law the
borough could not legally vote to In
crease the Indebtedness, because the
law under which the proposed Increase
has been ussumed, hus been declared
by the Supreme court to be unconstitu
tional. .
SOME OF THE TESTIMONY.
Burgess John F. Nicholson swore to
the ordinance which was passed au
thorizing the vote on the increase of
Indebtedness to be taken. J. D. Stock
er. of the Jermyn & Rushbrook Water
company, wus put under oath and he
said that the company had tunneled
.from Chapman luke to the watershed
of Hay creek at a cost of $15,000 to pro
cure a pure water supply. Altogether
the compwny has expended ubout $lon,
000. He told of the damage that would
result if the company should be de
prived of the patronage of the people
of Jermyn, which would be the cuse
if the borough constructed its own wat
er works.
Judge Jessup argued at length on the
iillegajlty of the ordinance and the elec
tion. The present debt of the boroMJh
was shown to be $2.20U and an addi
tional $10,000) as contemplated fur the
Improvement, would enlarge the debt
beyond the limit ullowtd by law. Even
though tlie $1H.0U0 is not assumed ut
once but is subject to an issuance of
bonds, he suld that circumstances
might In future arise when the regu
lar funds could nut be available by vir
tue of the overhanging Indebtedness.
MR. BURNS' ARGUMENT.
Mr. Burns argued that the law ullows
a borough council at any time without
a, vote of the citizens to increase its
debt two per cent, more than the debt
that then exists. Any higher debt that
Is contemplated cannot be nssumed
without submitting the question to the
people, and then the law does not per
mit an Increase of more than 5 per cent,
of the assessed valuation to be voted
upon. An election was held in Jermyn
und by a large majority the people
agreed to Increase the debt five per
cent. The two per cent, which the
council can at any time levy without
going before the people, and the live
per cent, voted upon muke a 7 per cent,
maximum to which the borough can be
bonded. The $16,000 which the water
works will cost Is within 7 per cent,
of the assessed valuation.
Mr. Price argued also on authorities
in law and the papers were submitted
to Judge Gunster for consideration.
The evidence taken was copied by
Stenographer John Taylor.
MOUNT VERNON CASE.
In the afternoon the Mount Vernon
Street Railway cuse came up. Hon.
Lemuel Amerman and Attorney I. H.
Burns represented the defendant and
Hon. John P. Kelley and Hon. C. P.
O'Malley represented the plaintiff. He
fore any further step was taken the
defendant presented a petition asking
that the preliminary Injunction be dis
dlssolved for the reason that the name
of the borough of Winton wus used
without authority as plaintiff In the
equity suit. A hearing was hud on
this branch of the case. The defend
ant alleged that a special meeting of
the council was called without the
knowledge or consent of the burVess,
and that five members of the council
met In response to the call and decided
to bring the action against the com-

men were not notified.
On the part of the defendant It was
maintained that a special meeting of
the council is nut legal if sufficient no
tice is not given to all the cotincllmen,
even though a majority of the coun
cil ure present at the meeting pursuant
to such a cull.- John F. Walsh, secre
tary of the council, wus sworn and he
said he sent out uotltt s to all the coun
cllmen. He sent the notice to the four
who did not attend by a boy 10 years
old. The four who were not ut the
meeting swore they did not get the
notices.
On Friday morning there will be on
argument on the question whether or
not the special meeting under these
circumstances wus legal. Court Sten

of evidence.
