LET IT BE CITY HALL.
Municipal Building Is Too .Much of a
Mouthful ami Besides Is Provincial.
A movement Is afoot to change tho
Isrn on the city hall from "Municipal
Bulldlntr" to "City Hall." Mr. Lansing
greed In the absence ol an appropria
tion for such purposes, to cast the need
ed letters If Mr. Schroeder would put
them in place. Mr. Schroeder agreed
and of course .apnroves of the change.
It will be "City Hall" hereafter.
There are a number of reasons why
city hall Is preferable to municipal
building. The principal one Is that any
old borough or township can have a
municipal building, but only a city can
bave a city hall. Then again It is
easier to say City hall and sounds more
metropolitan.

PYTHIANS COMING HERE.
Will Hold the Next Sessions of the
Grand Lodge in This City Dr.
Dunnell Grand Chancellor.
At yesterday's session of the grand
lodge, Knights of Pythias, In Gettys
burg it was decided to hold the 1S!I"
meeting In this city. The meeting will
take place In August. This means as
much to Scranton as did the recent
conclave of the Knights Templar", and
perhaps more, for in this city and vicin
ity the Pythian lodges are numerous
and the members will be in the city In
lurge numbers Individually and as
lodges during certain days of the ses
sion. The selection of Scranton for the
meeting was In the main due to the
efforts of the now Grand Chancellor
Pr. H. N. Dunnell, of this city, and the
fourteen Scranton delegates. Dr. Dun
nell graduated nt the present Gettys
burg meeting from grand vice chancel
lor to his present oilice. the most ex
alted active Pythian office In the state,
though the grand chancellor Is In a pas
sive sense out-ranked by the Iniineuiate
past grand chancellor. In IS'JI the meet
ing was at York and in 1S'J5 nt Lancas
ter. There are over 500 lodges In the state
to send one delegate each to the meet
ing. Its Installation session will be
semi-publle. Considering the order's
thirteen lodges In this county, as many
in Luzerne and, at least as many more
In neighboring counties, It Is estimated
that from 2,500 to 4.000 men will be in
line In the parade, always a much antic
ipated feature of the Grand lodge do
ings. There ore In this region many
rnlformed Hanks, Knights of Pythias,
which will participate in the parade.
The 1'nlfnrmed Rank divisions are each
composed of members of various Pyth
ian lodges. The Grand lodge meeting
w ill last three or four days.
Dr. DuuneU's term of oilice as grand
chancellor will terminate during the
1S!)7 meeting, und he will then become
past grand chancellor, a non-active but
ranking oilice for one year.
TWIN SHAFT" COMMISSION.
Presented a Partial Report to the Gover
norNot Given Out for Publica
tionTo Made Suggestions.
A dispatch received nt the Tribune
oilice last night stated that Mine In
spectors Willlum Htein, of Shenandoah;
Kdward Roderick, of this city, and Kd
wanl llrenniin, of Sbnmokln, who were
appointed to Itniulre Into the cause of
the Twin shaft disaster, held a confer
ence with Governor Hastings, Attor
ney General McCormlck and Secretary
of the Commonwealth Keeder nt the
executive chamber nt Hurrlsburg yes
terday, afternoon as to the result of the
Investigation.
It was expected that they would be
rendy to submit a written report, em
bracing their oiiluions as to how the
catastrophe occurred, but as they did
not receive a map of tho mine until
Aug. 15 they could do no more than pre
pare individual reports, the contents
of which were brlelly given to the
governor, but withheld for publication.
These statements will be embodied In
a consolidated report which will prob
ably be submitted to the governor In
three of four Weeks. The commission
is understood to have reached a con
clusion as to the causes which led to
the disaster, but its nature will not bo
known to the public until the governor
obtains the report.
The commission was not only In
structed by tho governor to muke the
report complete, but to embody Its sug
gestions to be Incorporated In a bill for
the consideration of the next legisla
ture to prevent the re-occurrence of
such terrible accidents If such a thing
be possible.
Mining at tho Twin shaft Tvas sus
pended yesterduy and all the miners
were ordered out. No reasons aro giv
en but it is believed that It Is unsafe
to remove coal from the shaft In Its
present condition.

not only by their presence at these

New Assessment Idea Given a Black
F.yc"Timc for Payment of Taxes
F.xtendedTwo Very Busy Counci1
Meetings.
All the appointments which It was
predicted Mayor Ilailey would send in
wore received by select council last
night, with the exception of that of
Thomas Marshall to succeed to the
Janitorship of city hall, and all re
ceived Immediate consideration and
confirmation.
Marshall's appointment got lost by
the wayside, how, when or where, no
one seemed to know, or at least no one
cared to say that he knew. That some
one did know the whys and where
fores of the omission was evident from
the fact that no surprise or comment
was occasioned thereby. Knowing ones,
there were among the outsiders, who
offered tho conjecture that the eleven
Republicans would not agree to John
Marshall's removal and In the absence
of some more likely explanation the
speculation went.
First of all In the matter of appoint
monts George S. Horn's name which
was sent In at n previous meeting for
tho position of member of the board of
health to succeed Colonel E. H. Hippie,
was favorably reiiorted from commit
tee and on motion of Mr. Chittenden
approved. Then the new nominations
were rend In order and conllrmed
forthwith, the rule about referring to
committee being suspended In each
case by a two-thirds vote. Tho ap
pointments are ns follows: Thomas F.
Cullen, foot! and milk Inspector: James
Hart, patrolman; E. S. Stark, Inspect
or of pavement on Ninth, Robinson and
Jackson streets; Peter Ross, Inspector
cf pavement on Swetland street; Jacob
Hryant, Inspector of pavement on Mon
roe avenue; Adam Stelnhauser, per
manent man Hook nnd Ladder com
pnny; Jucob Frens, permanent man,
Itelief Knglne company.
STILL ANOTHER COMPETITOR.
Another asphalt company has come to
bid for paving contracts. It Is called
the Metropolitan Paving company of
New York, but who the Metropolian
Tavlng company Is or whether or not
it Is associated with any of the other
companies now doing business here Is
more than any one about city hnll would
venture to say. However, as their bid
is even higher than the Barber's their
advent Into the paving contract arena
here carries with It little significance
unless there is something behind their
bid that Is not as yet apparent to the
uninitiated.
The Metropolitan company made Its
bow with a bid on the Malum court Job
a comparatively small contract. Their
price was $2.57 per square yard, 'he
Uarber Asphalt company's bid was
$2.55 per square yard. Dunn Hrothers
also stuck to their old figure $2.23 per
square yard. The proposals were re
ferred to the paving committee, with
instructions to award the contract to
the lowest responsible bidder.
The proposition to advise the board
of revision nnd appeals to make a new
assessment for IN!'" was defeated,
through the opposition of central city
councllnien. Air. Chittenden who was
foremost In opposing; the measure,
argued that while It Is true the city
Is hard up, it Is not nearly as hard up
as its citizens. Mr. Williams lead the
adherents of the resolution. He con
tended that there should at all events
be an equalization of taxes; that the
central city wasn't paying its Just pro
portion.
The vote was as follows:
Ayes Ross. Finn, Kearney, Thomas,
Williams, Clarke, Munley, Fellows, Coyne
Nays Durr, Chittenden, Wagner. Rob-
I icon, Schroeder, Lansing, liurns, Frable,
Sanderson, McAndrew 10.
TO ENG HAVE CORNER STONE.
Mr. Hums) Introduced a resolution
authorizing Conrad Schroeder, builder
of the city hall, to engrave on the cor
ner stone the names of the mayor, Col
onel Ezra H. Ripple; the chairmen of
the building committees, C. F. Mattes
nnd Captain James Moir; the architect,
E. L. Walter and the builder, Conrad
Schroeder.
A communication was received from
City Controller Robinson advising that
the time for the collection of taxes be
extended thirty or sixty flay3 In order
to encourage property holders to pay
their taxes. It being his belief that,
many who are not In a position to set
tle now, will be able to do so In a couple
of months and if nn extension is given
them they will mnke an effort to avoid
the penalty. In his letter the controller
says the consolidated loan second series
1S76 bonds, nmountlng with Interest to
$102,000 fall duo on December 1, next.
There are $:!0,000 yet needed to make the
sinking fund able to meet this amount.
Of the estimated revenues for this
year $70,000 belong to the sinking fund.
Only $.1,000 of this amount have so far
been collected.
The demands on the sinking fund this
year will be as follows:
Consolidated loan, second series. $103,000 w
City Improvement loan 1,100 00
Funding loan .Xi uo
Municipal building loan 1.5U0 00
Municipal Improvement loan 2.025 00
Redemption loan 3,210 00
Bridges loan 6.C25 00
Total .-. $117.390 00
To meet this we have the following
assets:
Cash In sinking fund jr.it.l8Sl 81
Consolidated loan bonds 17,500 0)
Interest accruing on same 525 00
Total $87,214 81
This leaves an apparent deficiency of
$30,175.19. There will be $36,800 left over
to meet the $14,390 Interest coming due
In the second half of the fiscal year, so
If there Is no great delay In the collec
tion of taxes the sinking fund will be In
an excellent condition.
Hlds for paving West Lackawanna
avenue with atone block pavement, be
tween Ninth street and Main avenue,

05 cents; circular curb, 90 cents.
The bids were referred to the paving
committee.
When the auditing' committee's re
port was being read Mr. Chittenden
raised a howl because tho city was
giving Rs advertising to any and all the
papers, and paying fifteen and twenty
cents a line for Jt, when there Is a con
tract with the Times and Republican
to do the advertising for five and four
rents a line respectively. The other
members thought this was all wrong,
too, nnd passed a resolution directing
tho printing committee to advertise for
proposals for doing the city advertising.
The police committee, through Mr.
Finn, reported that the charges against
Patrolman Joseph Block, preferred by
Mr. Roche, had been Investigated and
found to be groundless. The report was
received nnd filed.
A resolution directing the Traction
company to repair North Main avenue,
between Bull's Head and West Court
street, was Introduced by Mr. Finn and
adopted. An ordinance for a sewer on
Columbia avenue, between the Houle
vard and Washington avenue, was In
troduced by Mr. Finn and referred for
printing.
The ordinance for nsnhalting Mul
berry street, from Mittlin avenue to
Prescott avenue, passed third and final
rending. The sum of $00,000 is appro
printed for the work. The Wheeler ave
nue lateral sewer ordinance passed first
and second readings.
A resolution came over from common
council directing the purchasing com
mittee to buy a wagon for Chief Hlckey.
It was killed because the ordinance ap
propriating the money hnd not yet
passed third reading. Immediately af
terwards the ordinance was called up
and passed. As the vote was being
taken a boy came rushing In and an
nounced to Chief Hlckey, who was an
interested onlooker that the high school
was afire. The rattle of his dilapidat
ed carriage was In a moment heard on
Washington avenue and the ordinance
passed. There was no lire in the high
school and now the question is wns
the false alarm a hoax on Hlckey or by
Hlckey.
Adjournment was made until next
Tuesday night.
IN THE LOWER BRANCH.
Commoners Have a Very Quiet but
Busy Session.
In the absence of Chairman Grler,
Mr. Noone presided over last ninght's
meeting of common council.
An ordinance for the purchase of
three ladders and a life belt for the
Crystnl Hose company was approved.
A resolution extending the time for
paying taxes until October 1, wns
passed and concurred In later by select
council.
On motion f Mr. Oliver the resolu
tion passed al the last meeting award
ing to the Dunn Construction company
the contract for laying tho Luzerne
street pipe drain, was reconsidered and
the contract was awarded to T. J. Mc
Nulty, it having been ascertained that
he is the lower bidder. The Dunn's
proposed to do the work for $415. Mc
Nulty's bid was $1.10 per lineal foot.
The committee made an error In figur
ing and reported the Dunn bid as the
lower one. It was afterwards learned
thut this was a mistake and hence the
change. Select council also concurred
In this resolution.
Ordinances for paving Wyoming ave

Samuel J. Randall Talks In the Interest
of McKinlcy and Sound
Mon;y.
Special to the Scranton Tribune.
New Mllford, Aug. 20,-New Mllford
turned out tonight to listen to an ad
dress by Samuel J. Randall, a son of
the late well-known Democratic lend
er. He spoke for McKinley and sound
money. The very principles and pre
cepts of the country's veracity and
credit were dealt Uiion nnd he clearly
elucidated the fact that free coinage
of silver meant ruination nnd destruc
tion not only for the bond holder but
the laborer. Mr. Randall is a "son of
his father," and said were he olive
that the hills and dales would ring
with his repudiation of the attempt of
debasement of our country's currency
and the repudiation of our honest
debts.
"I know," said Mr. Randall, "that wo
face a solemn problem; one that should
make each man quake with fear when
he sees the awful financial result and
I am unhesitating In my statement
that the free coinage of silver means
utter fullure of our government nnd
Its people. Shun free silver as you
would anarchy. They go hand In
hand."
Mr. Randall's speech was warmly re
ceived.

In that case, will not be worth a

RECEPTION TO THE
FIREMEN'S FRIEND
Local Firemen Entertain Hon. James
Clarcncy, of Philadelphia.
HE FATHERED THE RELIEF BILL
Large Throne Gnthcr at Purr's Hotel
to Io Honor to the Widely Popular
I.cgislntorTclls the History of tho
Bill and Also Brings Good News,
Speeches by Prominent Citizens.
Hon. James Clarency, of Philadel
phia, father of the firemen's relief bill,
nnd popularly known as "The Fire
man's Friend." was tendered a recep
tion nt Durr's hotel lust night by the
local firemen.
Mr. Clarency came here on a business
trip but when It was learned that he
was headed this way the firemen de
termined to get up some kind of a cele
bration In his honor. The time was so
short that nothing elaborate could be
attempted so an Informal reception
was agreed upon.
Representatives of every fire com
pany In the city and a number of
councllnien were present. Senator J.
C. Vaughn who cared for Mr. Cluron
cy's bill when It was before the sen
ate and who aided him In securing the
governor's approval, and Hon. Alex. T.
Connell, who sat next to Mr. Clarency
at the last legislature, presented the
callers. Mr. Connell also directed the
speechmaking, calling cn vnrlous per
sons from among the throng for re
marks. Those who responded were:
Senator Vaughn, Chief Hlckey, Com
mon Councilman J. C. Moir," Select
Councllnien Wade M. Finn, Ed. Frable,
Robert Robinson and Adam Schroeder,
Common Councilmnn Simon Thomas
nnd Peter Robllng, chairman of the
Volunteer Firemen's association.
Mr. Clarency made a speech outlining
the history of the bill nnd explaining
it thoroughly both as to Its letter and
spirit. Tho reason be said that the
bill does not directly appropriate
money for the relief of firemen Is that
such a measure would be unconstitu
tional civic, pensioners being pro
hibited by our laws. It wns therefore
necessary to appropriate tho money to
the city and give the verbal under
standing that It was to be turned over
to the Firemen's Relief Association.
This he said was the spirit of the law
and the understanding the governor
had of It when he signed it. In Phila
delphia the councils turned the money
over without any hesitancy and he
hoped, he said, that this city would do
likewise. .
Mr. Clarency also assured the Scran
tion firemen that he was a red hot nd
vocate of Scranton for the 1SU7 conven
tion and wherever he could do any
thing to help this city secure the prize
ho could be relied upon to do it. Coming
through Alleiitown, he said, he wns
told by the mayor, to assure the Scran
ton firemen that they would get Allen
town's vote solid.
Several hours were spent in sociabil
ity arid at the conclusion of tho festivi
ties three cheers were given with a will
for "The Firemen's Friend."
