and he asked the court to Intervene and
enjoin the contractor from proceeding
further with the work. A preliminary
injunction was granted, but after hear
ing the evidence and the argument!) of
counsel. Judge (lunster decided there
was no cause for continuing the Injunc
tion and dissolved it. The opinion is as
follows:
It appears from the evidence that the
work of which tlie plaintiff complains is
being done by the city of Scrutmon un
der and In pursuance of un ordinance
entitled, "An ordinance estaibllsiMng the
grade of Hohlnson street und certain por
tions of Ninth avenue and Jackson street;
also providing for the grading of said
streets and uvetiuv. and for the i-onstruc-tion
of Improvements thereon, including
the. const niot Ion of imunnry, etc, etc.;
atliim.-d June 8, IS!. While the ordi
nance makes no provision for the pay
ment of comiteiisuthjii to those- whose
p!Miepty nwiy be Injured by these pro
posed Improve menits, such persons are not
without a remedy ut law, Kor the pur
pose of this case It Is puttlvlent to say. that
It is too doubtful whether or not the plain
tiff's oropeiUy will be Injured to permit
this injunction to stund. A preliminary
Injunction will not be granted unless the
plaintiff shows a clear right and Immedi
ate and urgent danger of Irreparable in
jury. The rule to continue preliminary Injun -
tion is discharged, anil the injunction
heretofore grunted Is dissolved.
WIRES WOULD NOT WORK.
Scvi re Storm Dotvu Ihe State Inter.
It-red With Tele griiphiug.
The telegraph wires to the south of
Scrauton would not work to Philadel
phia after (i o'clock lust evening until
nearly midnight because of a severe
ruin storm which ranged over the
southeastern nnd eastern part of the
state and through New Jersey. The
wires to New York city also worked
badly but by dint of considerable pa
tience messages for the metropolis were
transmitted Horn here til long inter
vuls. The 1'nited Press wire over which
Tlie Tribune gets Its telegraphic news
from the distributing oHice ut Philadel
phia, could not be worked ut ul! and
use ha 1 to be made of a Western Union
w ire. the first to lie put in service be
ginning ut l'.2l o'clock.
No news could lie obtained through
tlie telegraphic otlices here eurly In the
evening of the nature of the storm or
Its exlent. The fullure of the wires to
work properly wus thought to be on
Hcucuiit of (heir being "crossed" by tlie
wind rather (him being blown down.
Beyond u mild rain storm In the middle
of the afternoon accompanied by thun
der and lightning, und threatening
weather until late ut night there was
un sign of u severe storm in this city.

In the uldermun's utllce lie whined

PARTNERS MAKE
SERIOUS CHARGES
t
Arbi trators Trying to Adjust Affairs of
Kresg c & Bunnell.
HAVE ANOTHER MEETING TODAY
11 Is Said Thai Mr. Kjesge Is Willing
lo Withdraw from ihe. firm if a
Satisfactory Kiuuueial Arrangement
Can He Made-Parlnership Has
Existed Oulya Short Tjine.
There has been trouble brewing for
some time in the Hrm of Kresge & Bun
nell, dry goods merchants doing busi
ness on South Main avenue. West Side,
and as a result the partnership is about
to be dissolved. Serious churges are
made by both partners. Mr. Kresge
Intimates that his partner tried to .iiin
Hu in In bundling money of the lirm, and
Mr. Bunnell retorts by declaring that
he was deceived by his partner when
he purchased un interest in the lliin.
Arbitrators selected by the warring
partners are now endeavoring to agree
upon some basis thut will result lu un
amicable settlement of the difficulty.
The original title of the lirm was
Kresge & Co.. K. H. Kresge having a
two-thirds Interest 111 the lirm and his
son, C. L. Kresge, who was manager
of the establishment, one-third. Sev
eral mouths ago the elder Kresge be
came tired of the cares of business life
and sold his Interest in the lirm to L. L.
Bunnell, the new firm being known as
Kresge & Bunnell. Apparently the af
fairs of the concern glided along very
smoothly until the present dilliculty
took place.
K It ICS J K ACCt'SSKS BUNNELL.
Mr. Kresge became suspicious of Mr.
Bunnell, and at length openly accused
lit in of unfair treatment. This charge
was denied, but the relations of the
partners thereafter were strained, and
it wus decided to submit the settlement
of their affairs to a board of arbitrators
consisting of Josepn A. Mears, Ueorge
Wallace, of the linn of Connolly & Wal
lace, and It. W. Luce.
The lirst meeting of the arbitrators
was held last week and Mr. Kresge re
peated the charge which originally
caused the dilliculty between tlie patt
lieis. He was asked to substantiate it
by Arbitrator W'ullace, and he culled
upon one of their clerks. Miss Davis,
who, after some hesitation, said sic
.saw Mr. Bunnell charge himself with
goods and afterwards erase the charge.
This statement brought forth un em
phatlc denial from Mr. Bunnell, who
mude the charge that Mr. Kresge had
deceived him when he purchased Ills
Interest In the tlrm with regard to the
condition of the business and the
amount of stock curried.
AltK HKIXC CdNSIDIOIlKD.
These fuels and many others de
veloped before the arbitrators are no,v
being considered by the three gentle
men above named. Mr. Kresge, It is
salil. Is willing to retire from the lirm
if a satisfactory sum for tils Interest
can be agreed upon.
The arbitrators w ill hold u neither con
ference today.
