Traction Officials and Persons Inter
estcd Wer on the Car.
DID NOT CROSS RAILROAD TRACKS
Road Is Completed from Dunmore
"Corners' to Winton Borough, with
the Exception ofthe Crossings Over
the Delaware and Hudson Railroad,
Which Are Now the Subject of an
Injunction.
The first car over the new electric
line to Olyphant was run at noon yes
terday. It left the city at 12.30 and
xenf. by way or the Laurel HiH line
to Dunmore "Corners," and alone the
Dunmore road to Olyphant. The trip
was very satisfactory. On board the
car were: C. M. Clarke, of Philadel
phia, vice president of the Scranton
Traction company; General Manager
Frank Silliman, jr., Superintendent
Robert F. Fox, Hon. Lemuel Amer
man, A. IS. Dunning, Jr., P. S. Page,
Engineer Knight, of Dunmore, Mr.
Law, of Throop, and William Mahon,
James Jordan and W. J. Schubmehl,
of Olyphant. .
This Is the last day under the fran
chise allowed the company to construct
the line, and get It In shape for oper
ation. It is not necessary that cars
be in operation carrying passengers
from now on, only that the road must
be built by today and the wires up and
ready for a car to run on It.
By this route the most if not the
entire traffic of Olyphant will go, ex
cept for people living on the west side
of the river., The time from Scranton
to Olyphant can be made over this
route quicker' than by way of Provi
dence. The service on the Laurel Hill
line because of the amount of double
track on It will bring the cars to Dun
more from the central city sooner than
to Providence, and from Dunmore it
Is a direct line to Olyphnnt along a
level stretch of road, with but few
twists and turns.
LAID TO WINTON.
The line Is laid through to Winton
with the exception of the crossings over
the Delaware and Hudson railroad at
Dunmore and Hudson streets In the
borough .of; Olyphant. It was only to
the first of these crossings that the
car ran yesterday.
A hearing with regard to the cross
ings on the injunction sought by the
railroad, company to restrain the de
fendants from crossing at grade waa
held in the morning and afternoon be
fore Judge Gunster In chambers. I.
H. Burns, Mr, Amerman and M. J.
Martin represented the defendant, and
ex-Judge Jessup and W. H. Jessup, Jr.,
the plaintiff.
General Manager Silliman was on the
stand the most of the morning. Be
fore coming to Scranton he said he was
a surveyor on the Atlantic avenue trol
ley line in Brooklyn. The Delaware
and Hudson has mapped out three
methods of overcoming the difficulty.
One way is to go under the railroad
tracks and the other two ways are to
go over them. None of the three, Mr.
SUllman said, Is practicable. By going
over ihe tracks a trestle forty feet
high would have to be built and this
would be unsafe, because of Its helgth
and the fact that there would have to
be a large curve on the trestle, which
ever one would be built. Both routes
are adjacent to Dunmore Btreet. To go
under the tracks would bring the car
around very sharp curves through a
narrow alley, and the line would be at
least eighteen Inches and possibly four
and one-half feet below high water
mark on the Lackawanna river.
COULD NOT OPERATE ROAD.
In times of rain and thaw it would be
difficult to operate the road. The con
struction of n sea wall, Mr. Silliman
thought, would not remedy the case
much. A. B. Dunning, jr., who made
maps of the right of way and the
routes proposed by the Delaware and
Hudson, was on the stand explaining
why it would be next to an Impossi
bility to build the road on any of the
three routes proposed by the company.
James J. Cummlngs, advertising
manager of the Truth, has occasion to
use the street cars between Olyphant
and Scranton dally. In several places
the street car goes over a railroad at
grade. Mr. Cummlngs never saw any
great danger resulting from this. Other
witnesses testified in a similar manner.
The hearing was adjourned until 9
o'clock this morning.
If Judge Gunster decrees that the
street car can cross the steam tracks
at grade, the defendants will have the
line carrying passengers from Winton
very quickly after the litigation is end
ed. Meanwhile, the action of the court
is awaited. The company that owns
the road is now negotiating with the
Traction company about the terms of
the lease.
ONLY LIVINQ HEIR OF PENN.
Flaintiffin a Trespass Suit in Luzerne
County.
William Duguid Stuart, claiming to
be the only living heir of William
Penn, has brought action against Jacob
Bryant, and claims 119,000 damages.
The plaintiff bases his action upon al
leged acts of trespass committed at va
rious times between 1890 and 1896, In
which the defendant Is charged with
breaking Into a certain grove In Plym
outh township, and cutting down trees
and pollards of the plaintiff.
The plaintiff Is the alleged heir of
William Penn, who recently came from
England to look after various tracts of
land in Pennsylvania which had been
held by the Penn family and heirs since
the time the Illustrious William secured
the land from the Indians by the ienn
treaty of 1682. Wiikes-Barre Record.
WINTON BOROUGH INJUNCTION.
Judge Gnnster Heard Arguments for
and Against It.
Arguments were made yesterday
morning before Judge Gunster la cham
heaping spoonfuls.
bers In the injunction! proceedings of
the borough of Winton against the Mt.
Vernon Street Railway company. At
torney I. 11. Burns represented the de
fendant and Hon. C. P. O'Malley, the
plaintiff.
The company was supposed to have
Its tracks laid by May 1. 1896, accord
ing to he ordinance granting the right
of way; but on Feb. 1. 1897, supple
mental legislation was enacted by the
borough council fixing the time limit
three years from that date. The com
pany was not required then to have
Its tracks laid until Feb. 1, 1897. This
ordinance, however, was not recorded
on the ordinance book.
The piaintlir claims that this neg
lect invalidated the ordinance, end the
defendant that it docs not, that the
borough cannot benefit by Its own er
rors. Another argument by the de
fendant was that at the meeting when
it was decided to bring the suit for Ihe
injunction, five of the members met in
special session and the other four had
not been, notified at all. The burgess
did not give hl3 consent, and it was
argued that these fact3 make the meet
ing illegal. Judge Gunster reserved
his decision.
DURNINGIS FREE AGAIN.
His Term o Servitude In Eastern PenU
tentiary for the Murder of Peter
Martin la Over.
Thomas Durnlng, of Bellevue, was
released from the Eastern penitentiary
Thursday. On Jan. 18, 1887, he shot and
killed Peter Martin in a saloon In Belle
vue, the reason he gave for the deed be
ing that he suspected Martin of having
burglarised his place of business.
Durning's escape from the rope was
narrow. John Gibby, of Jefferson town
ship, the twelfth Juror selected, was
the only one In favor of second degree,
and after being out fifty hours the oth
er eleven swung around and agreed
upon that verdict
He was put on trial for his life on
Monday, April 18, 1S87, before ex-Justice
Alfred Hand, then president Judge
of Lackawanna county. Hon. H. M.
Edwards was then district attorney,
and conducted the case for the com
monwealth. The late Judge John F.
Connolly, then one of the leading mem
bers of the bar, defended Durnlng. The
case was very ably tried and lasted Ave
days. On Friday of the same week at
4.30 In the afternoon It went to the Jury
and the following Sunday evening at
6.20 the verdict was returned.
Sentence was pronounced upon Durn
lng on A nrll 30, 1887. Twelve years was
the mi um punishment provided by
law at i, .at time for murder of the sec
ond degree, and he got the full stretch.
Since then the legislature has extended
the punishment to twenty years for the
first offense and life Imprisonment for
the second. Augustlno Nolll, of Dun
more, for the murder of Concordia
Prlgnanno, was the first defendant
sentenced In this county under the new
act. Judge Gunster gave him fifteen
years.
Durning served exactly nine years
and three months, securing a commuta
tion of two years and nine months for
good behavior. His health is good, and
the trade he learned is that of a baker.

and those who went with him Into the
Ill-fated mine never returned. If there
fore became necessary for the councils
to select another acting niayor and
they met last night for that purpose.

Chairman Reap, of the select council,
was selected to preside over the joint
session of the meeting and after the
object of the meeting was stated, Thom

of acting mayor. On the first ballot
English received 14 vote and Barrett,
12, Select Councilman Thompson voting
for Benjamin Hartlg. The second bal
lot was English, 15; Barrett, 12. and
so It remained during the succeeding
seven ballots.
It required seventeen votes to elect

being impossible to arrive at a choice
last night. The meeting waa attended
by great excitement and no little dis
