SCOPE OP THE INVESTIGATION It Led to a Very Heated Discussion Daring Which Attorney E. C. New comb Said Some Very Unpleasant Things About the City's Chief Ex. ecntivc-.Mr. O'Toole Declared That He Will Force Certain Words Down Mayor Bailey's Throat. Virulent abuse of the city's chief ex ecutive and an hour's wrangle over technicalities was the sum and sub stance of the first night of the Kinsley Investigation. The session was held In the mayor's office. Colonel George Sanderson, president of select council: James J. Grler, president of common council; C. E. Chittenden and J. J.Loftus.chairman of the respective streets and bridges committee, who had been Invited by the mayor to sit with him as advisors, were all present at the appointed hour, 7.20 o'clock. Mr. Kinsley was there with ex-City Solicitor I. H. Burns and George M. Watson as his attorneys. The Sunday World, which printed the charge upon which the investigation is based, was represented by John H. Blackwood. M. J. O'Toole and Attorney E. C. Newcamb. H. C. Hatton, clerk of the common council and street cftn- missioners clerk, and City controner E. J. Robinson were present as wit nesses. The mayor's private secretary. It. J. Beamish. C. A. Battenberg, who acted as official stenographer, and rep resentatives of the daily papers were the only others present. Mayor Bailey opened the ball by an nouncing that he had been instructed by select council to Investigate charges against Street commissioner ivinsiey, contained In a recent Issue of the Scranton Sunday World. He was pre pared to proceed with the Investigation and would welcome suggestions as to how It should be conducted. Colonel Sanderson I suppose this pro ceeding is to be confined to the Sunday World charges. Mayor Bailey That is my Idea. Colonel Sanderson I ask this question because I want to know before agreeing to act what the breadth of the Investi gation is. If you confine yourself to the charges contained in the Sunday World, I am wiling to serve. If you go outside thut I must decline to act with you, as I do not think it is our place to go beyond what we were directed to do by council. The Mayor reiterated his belief that the Sunday World charges were the only ones he had to deal with. At his suggestion Secretary Beamish read the communications which passed be tween the mayor and councils regard Ins the matter. First was read the con current resolution directing the mayor to investigate the street commissioner s riennrtment: then the mayor's letter asking for specific charges, and finally the resolution of select council. SELECT COUXCIL RESOLUTION. Resolved, That it is the sense of the se lect council that the charges made by the Sunday World against Street Commis sioner Kinsley, should be investigated by the mayor. 'i.ni..niien It seems to nie that the Sunday World charges should form the basis of our investigationbut that we should not tin ourselves up by limiting k. int.utiirntlnn tii these charges. Ac cept these as primary charges and If they lead to any oiners lei us niveous" m..., '"colonel Sanderson I am not willing without a distinct authorization and In struction from councils to go into a gen eral overhauling of any department. It is repulsive to me to go Into any dragnet business ana 1 no nut propone iu uu u without being ordered. Mr. Neweomb What Is your Idea, Col onel Sanderson, In regurd to roe scope of this investigation? Would Iho pay roll for the street department during Mr. Kinsley's term be a subject ol investiga tion? Colonel Sanderson I understand that the ehargeB are that he used his own teams on city work. Further on in the article are statements of rumors that there were assignments of wages to men closely as sociated with Mr. Kinsley; that lie had used city teams on the excavation for the Krothlngham theater and charged the work up to the city; that he had a ci-tk In his otlice for which no provision was made by councils and thsft th'j clerk was on the pay roll as a laborer, und that Mr. Hatton. the person designated by coun cils as street commissioners' cprk was virtually lired out.

Colonel Sanderson Mv position is not that of one who would shield anything inai snouiu come out. 1 merely nave u personal repugnance to participating In a oragnet inquiry anil preier not to do so without direct instructions f-om councils, Mr. Chittenden Kepresentitlves cf the paper are present. Why not let them put the charges more clearly or more upccl ncally If they can do so? Mr. Neweomb That's mv Idea, hut a. member of the committee wants to limit the Investigation. Let us go over the pay roll. Mayor Bailey Here! I am waiting to go on with this Investigation. Where are your charges? Mr. Neweomb Do you want them to be In writing? Mayor Bailey I want the charges con. tallied In the Sunday World if you are pre pared to present them. Mr. Neweomb Very well. I would now ask If the management of the Sunday World will be permitted to be represented by counsel? Mayor Bailey I see no objection. Mr. Neweomb Well, I will say In the outset that this stifling of the investiga tion will not be borne by the public. , Mayor Bailey You will please rememher that you are before the mayor. You have got to observe decency, at last if not respect. Confine yourself to the case or you will be removed from It. Mr. Neweomb The Sunduy World asks for the pay roll of the street commission er s department. Colonel Sanderson What for? Mr. Neweomb To show that there were men carried pn those pay rolls who never worked for the city. Mayor Bailey-Just hold on. Was that charge printed In the World? Mr. Neweomb If you think, Mr. Ballev that you can conduct this Investigation in a high handed manner you may find your self mistaken I appeal to the members of this committee. Here Is a copy of the pay roll which I wish to offer. Mr. Chlttenden-Let the clerk road a few pages of It and then we can Judge ai to whether or not we should admit it. Secretary Beamish was about to pro ceed with the reading of the document when Mr. Burns Interrupted with the remark that the charges In the Sunday World were what council had Instruct ed the mayor to Investigate. A copy of the World was at hand and the simplest way to get at the charges would be to take them as they appear ed and weigh them. VERY HARSH WORDS. Mr. Newcombe in his most caustic manner remarked that all .with the ex ception of the mayor wanted to make an honest Investigation. He Intended to proceed farther, but was Interrupted by the mayor with a reply to the effect that Af KlawnnrtiKo - . . .... --- '' -. v.... .tub any i II i u VUl a gentleman. Mr. Newcombe retorted in mnu, ana men raising ms voice, said with most emphatic earnestness: "I believe the City of (Scranton baa never humiliated Itself so before In' selecting a chief executive. I for one share with many the humiliation of having helped make you chief executive. The mayor made no reply to this open Insult, but glared like a tiger at his maligner. After some more parleying It was agreed to adjourn to Wednesday night, and In the meantime the World people would formulate- their charges. Mayor Bailey said he - would entertain any charges that mlErht be presented, and Colonel Sanderson said if what was to be presented next Wednesday night was nothing more than an elaboration of the charges that have been printed he would offer no objection. If they were otherwise he would refuse to serve. As the meeting was breaking up Mr. Newcombe in a somewhat conciliatory tone said: "Jim Bailey, you didn't act right with us to-night." "I treated you as fair as you treated me, I must say. "Well, I dont think you are alto gether responsible to-night. And still the mayor made no move to resent the imputation. After a majority of those who had been present were gone the World rep resentatives. Messrs. Blackwood ana O'Toole.had a whack at his honor. They Insulted him with almost every sen tence they uttered, and In one of them. Mr. O'Toole, went so far as to make the threat that he would force certain words of the mayor's down his throat before many days had passed. All this occurred in the mayor's office.

Three Republican clubs, the Lacka wanna, the Junior, and the Young Men's club, held meetings last night In the rooms of the Central club. In the main room the members of the first named club assembled, and addresses were delivered by William Connell and Major Everett Warren. Dr. W. F. Conners was the chairman in the ab sence of Senator J. C. Vaughnn. Mr. Connell spoke only brielly. He thanked the members for the kindly in terest they are taking In his candidacy for congress. He preferred to make way for Major Warren to talk to them on the issues of the day. The latter's address was delivered In an Interesting and entertaining style and Its argu ments were put in Intelligible form. He was very often Interrupted by applause and at the end received a vote of thanks. It is the same gold standard we have today, he said, as we had four years ego, and then there was nothing heard of It. But, he asserted, the money question is not the real Issue, it is brought Into this campaign to delude and deceive the voters. Protection to American Industries, the tariff, Is the real Issue. The steel mills of this city have worked only two weeks since August 15. That is an Instance of the result of free trade. These mills have not been Idle because there Is not enough money to run them. They have been Idle because there Is no market for what they manufacture. In 1873 the amount of money per capita In this country was $18, now It Is $24 or there abouts. In the twenty-seven years the Republican party was In power the na tional debt was reduced $3,000,000,000, but In the three years past of the Democratic party's management of af fairs the debt has increased $527,000.- 000. Grover Cleveland today would not be elected constable on the Democratic ticket. Why? Because of his work on the tariff. And that is the reason that the free silver issue Is brought Into the campaign, so that It wllb divert atten tion from the tariff blundering and bedazzle and bewilder the voters. There Is absolutely no question but that the two parties in Pennsylvania, he at Id, are In favor of protection. When Mr. Amerman ran for congress he said he was as much of a protectionist as Mr. Scranton, but after he got elected he voted for free wool and by one blow struck down one of the chief industries of Ohio, Major Warren took Mr. Mt rlfleld's letter of acceptance from his pocket and read part of it. "I suppose it his letter of acceptance," he said, "but it strikes me as amusing to see a Democratic candidate for con gress writing a letter of that kind." Major Warren said that Blaine would turn over In hl3 giave and toll around In horror if ho could but know th mis interpretation that the Democratic press is making of his speeches !n con gress on the money question to try to convince their readers thut the mag nate and grand Republican statesman advocated free silver. The speaker read fiom a speerh delivered by Blaine in congress in 1S78 in which he took a de termined stand against keeping silver on a parity with gold nt a ratio then In vogue and nt that time the bullion in a silver dollnr was worth 92 cents, where today It is worth only 63 cents. The sensible question for a person to ask nt this time when considering the money question, major VVnrren said. Is: "Why not let well enough alone: whv take a leap In the dark; do we need a change?" In answer the Republican party says that the dollar shall be a dollar the world over, and that is what we have now, and that the Republican party proposes to continue. The meeting took up the regular or der of business after the address, end adjourned to meet at the call of the president. Exhibit today the American flag. By that sign let Republicans conquer. ASSAULTED HIS TENANT. Hugh Mills, of New Street', Gave Aged Mrs. Gross a Olnck Eye. Hugh Mills, of New street, was yes terdny arrested for assault and battery on Mrs. Julia Gross, an aged widow, living in the basement of his house. He succeeded In getting a pension of $12 a month through the agency of Al derman O. B. Wright, some time ago, and since then he has been almost con tinuously drunk. He would come home at night and raise all kinds of trouble, abusing his family and making life miserable for everybody In the neigh borhood. Thursday night, after beating his wife, he descended to the basement and drove out the tenant, Mrs. Gross, Inci dentally blackening her eye. She there upon swore out a warrant for him be fore Alderman Wright. When Con stable George Wilson served It upon him yesterday he waived a hearing and entered ball In the sum of $200 before Alderman P. DeLacy, of the Seventh ward. ExhITtit today the American flag.

CALEDONIANS MET AT MUSIC HALL A Fine Musical and Literary Pro gramme Was Carried Out--ltc- frenhracnts Provided and Dancing Followcd-Fonrth Annual Social .of Columbus Council Young Men's Institute at Excelsior HalW-C'om- niittee in Charge or It. To the Celtic rare, the Scotch and the IriHh people, Hallowe'en possesses a strong superstious charm which never fades. It is surrounded with delight fully weird memories of spirits, fairies, ghosts, giants, leprechawna, pookas, demons, banshees and witches. In Scotland, as related by the poet Burns, the evening is celebrated by meetings of young people of both sexes, when various mysticnl or playful cere monies are performed with a view of revealing future husbands or wives. It is an occasion when all animated erea tures not human but akin to mankind are supposed to be specially active, The same credence surrounds the oc casion among the peasantry of Ire land. I'r.rter the auspices of the Scranton Caledonian Club there was a most pleasant Hallowe'en social conducted at Music Hall. Ar oil painting of Burns, whom every Scotsman Idolizes, was hung against the back wall of the stage and around It was draped the American Hag. On the stage a table was set with an abundance of fruit and cake and confectionery. The hall was filled with clansmen and their wives and daughters and lit tle ones and an unusually fine pro gramme or musicul and literary num hers wa3 carried out. It was In two parts and the interim was occupied with enjoying cake, coffee. Ice cream and candy. An active and ready corps of young lads and lassies bore the trays around to the folks and a half hour was thus engaged. Boxes of candy were distributed to the little ones to keep them from going to sleep, in which they would surely dream of every var lety of hobgolbin. Chief William Scott Collins, of the Caledonians, opened the entertainment with a few remarks, and during the evening brief addresses were mndo by Mr. Connary and ex-Chief James Moir. The gallant captain delighted his hear era. with stories of Hallowe'en super stitions, and by turns made the cold chills creep up and down their spinal columns, and then sent them into roars of laughter. The othr-r persons who favored with their talent wore Misses Russell, John Sheridan, William Reap, Harry Mellett, AI Austin, Ed ward Kelley, Lindsay McMillan, ex Clilef James B. Skeoch, and the Village Bell quartette. Dancing followed, for which the music was furnished by Pro fessor Johnson. SOCIAL IN EXCELSIOR HALL. Columbus Council, Branch No. 179, of the Young Men's Institute, which is composed of members from the South Side, conducted a fine Hallowe'en social at Kxcelslor hall, Wyoming avenue, There wns a large assemblage of young folks present, an on the neat card pro grummo given to each lady on arriving the reminder was printed, "The Ladles Last Chance for Eight Years." It was the fourth annual social. Richard J. Sheridan was master of ceremonies, and his assistant was M. P. Dnnnhoe. The committees were mndo up of Dr. J. A. Manley, Dr. J. J. Walsh, Attorney M. J.

At 1 o'clock yesterday morning Coun ty Detective Thomas Leyshon and a squad of special officers made a descent on No. 18 Lacknwanna avcnue'nnd ar rested four women and three men. Three causes led to the raid. One was the determination of the Inhabltors and the landlord of the building to keep the place free of the characters who have given It such a hard reputation, Tne second cause was a complaint lodged against the place by the wife of a well known Scrantonlnn who wa-i seen by hl3 better-half out riding with the pro prietress of the place, Minnie Williams. The Immediate cause was a flfiht be tween this erring husband and an un married lover of the Williams woman, the frncass being in progress when the officers entered. When arraigned before Alderman Millar the Williams woman stated that she and the other three girls were Alsatians and had recently arrived In this country, coming to this city from New York about three weeks ago. They did not know of the reputation of the building, she raid or they would not have gone there.
