been reared in the dry goods trade in
Scranton, Mr Connolly in the old V.m

Five years ago these two young men
began business. They were among the

dared establish their business north
and east of what a few years ago was
the center of the shopping district.
Their good judgment and pluck was
later shown by the trend of trade to

GOOD SHOW AT DAVIS' THEATRE.
Some Old Time Favorites Are Seen
There Again.
Harry Thome and his clever wife,
Maggie Willett, are at Davis' theater
for this week and they bring along with
them one of the cleanest and most en
tertaining vaudeville shows that has
ever been seen here. The two perform
ances, yesterday afternoon and even
ing, were enjoyed by unusually large
audiences. The show Is so good that
every part is worthy of special men
tion. As a curtain raiser a good, whole
some comedy, "An Up- Town Flat," is
given by Willet and Rogers, McAvoy
and Thome. Two married couples live
In the flat, and the struggle for the boss
of the roost between wifeys and hub
bies is woefully true to nature. Fol
lowing this the Delmannlng brothers
do some neat and novel dancing. Then
comes the greatest exhibition of lug
glery ever seen in the city. It is given
by Leavitt and Nevello, a man and
woman, who are styled on the pro
gramme "Europe's Greatest." The dex
terity with which the duo handle the
common three and four ball toss and
catch Is simply marvelous. Nevello,
the man, does the most delicate balanc
ing feats but the only way to appre
ciate them Is to see them.
Miss Lulu Thies gives some charac
ter songs and Imitates with her lips
the songs of a half dozen kinds of birds.
After this Is a somedy sketch by Mc
Aroy and Rogers.
One of the best-things In this cood
show Is Emll Hastings' stereoptlcon
views, while William Corcoran In a
pleasing voice sings the popular senti
mental songs of the day, such as "Cast
Aside," "Only Me." "Mother Was a
Lady," etc., the colored views prettily
Illustrating the sentiments of the songs.

The show ends with a pantomime com
edy called "Ntcodemus, or Baked
Alive." Harry Thome is the chief tun
maker. Taking It through and through

week. On Thanksgiving Day a com

She Was Heard nt the Frothingham
- Last Might.
"Black Patti" and fifty troubadours
were at the Frothingham last night
and entertained a fair sized audience.
The programme in two parts was chief
ly a musical one. In the first part,
"At Jolly Coon-ey Island," life on New
York's seashore Bowery vas depicted
in a musical skit with the vivacity and
realism characteristic of the fakirs,
who seem to be omnipotent on that
small bit of terra rlrma. They Intro
duced a number of specialties consist
ing of dancing, acrobatic feats and
marching manoeuvres that were up to
date.
The second part of the entertainment
was of a more relined character and
lovers of hiuh class vocal music were
treated to a number of selections from
grand and comic opera. "Black Pat

COMMON PLEAS COURT.
Cases That Came Up for Consideration
Yesterday Number Were Con
tinued Until tbe Next Term.
What constitutes a pulmonary dis
ease was the point at issue in the first
case called yesterday, when tbe third
week of common pleas court began in
the Federal building. It was in the
case of John Kelly, administrator of
the estate of Mary Kelly, deceased,
agulnst the Metropolitan Life Insur
ance company. Mrs. Kelly was In
sured with the company for $'160. She
died of pneumonia, and the company
refused to pay but half the amount of
the policy on the strength of a stipula
tion in the policy that In case the in
sured died of a pulmonary complaint
only half the amount named in the
policy can be collected.
Major Everett Warren, counsel for
the defense, contended that pneumonia
is an affectation of the lungs and all
lung troubles are pulmonary troubles,
and introduced the definition of pneu
monia, given by Webster, In substan
tiation of his contention. Dr. William
Haggerty testified that pneumonia was
a severe lntlammation of the lungs, but
was not a pulmonary complaint in the
general acceptation of the word. Pul
monary troubles are as a rule long
standing, while pneumonia is frequent
ly of a few days' duration only. Fol
lowing the binding instructions of
Judge Gunster the jury awarded the
plaintiff judgment for $230.19, half the
amount of the policy.
The case of Mart bars Sowka against
Micella Snyter for the recovery of five
feet of a lot on the South Side was on
at adjornment. Hon. W. H. Stahton
and A. A. Vosburp appeared for the
plaintiff, and T. P. Hoban, P. W. Stokes
and M. A. McGlnley for the defense.

DRIESEN FAILURE
WAS FRAUDULENT
So Opines the Resident Judge of Lacka
wanna County.
IT WAS A SCATHIXQ ARRAIGNMENT
Business Methods Which Indicated
a Ucuernl Scheme for Defrauding
Creditors-Tlicse Method Have
Become Frrqucut nnd Notorious
and Demand Attention, Says Judge
Archbald"Full Text ol the Opinion.
In no uncertain terms Judue Arch
bald yesterday spike his mind on the
subject of "tuccessful failures" in gen
eial and the Driesen failure in par
ticular. The expression was contained
in an opinion, handed down yesterday
in company with an order discharging
the rule to dissolve the attachments
secured by Hangman & Co., Nathan.
Son & Co.. Wilson & Co.. Lesser &
Dauzigere against Mrs. Hannah Drle-
On December 28, ISilB. Hannah Drie
sen, of this city, was closed by the
sheriff on confessed judgments amount
ing to about $18,000. The liubilities
for merchandise amounted to about
$!,000, none of which were due until
January 1. 1806.
The practice In legal circles here
was to abandon claims when they were
not due. Attorneys Warren & Knapp,
representing merchandise creditors to
the amount of about $14,000 issued at
tachments under the act of 1S69, and
legal steps to dissolve the attachments
were pending until yesterday.
Judge Archbnld in his opinion says
that fraudulent failures are becoming
too frequent. A layman has no trouble
in pronouncing them fraudulent and
the courts should not be less astute.
The judse holds thut where goods are
delivered to a common carrier in an
other state and the vendee pays the
freight, the law of the state where the
goods are delivered to the carrier ap
plies, and in New York attachments
lie when insolvency Is apparent, re
gardless of the original terms of credit.
MAY RESCUED THE SALE.
Under the Pennsylvania law he holds
that the theory advanced by Warren
& Knapp that the vendors may rescind
the sale and proceed on a common law
count for goods sold and delivered is
sufficient to sustain the attachment.
The opinion is the most vigorous in
its language of any ever filed in the
courts of this county, and is regarded
by lawyers as a step in the direction
of better protection for creditors. It
was the topic of the day In legal and
business circles. The opinion in the
case is as follows:
This case turns entirely on the facts,
and a full view of them, therefore, be
comes necessary. They appear from the
evidence to be as follows: Mrs. Hannah
Driesen, the defendant, for Beveral years
prior to December, ISM, was In the gen
eral clothing business in Scranton. The
store was managed by her husband, Louis
Driesen, who had general authority to act
lor his wife, but Mrs. Driesen also took
an active part in the conduct of the busi
ness. On bee. 1!3, 1SU3, eight confessions f
judgment were entered against her In
this court, amounting to over $10,000, up
ward, on which executions were Imme
diately issued, the stock of goods in the
Btore levied upon by the sheriff and the
whole sold out at public sale Dec. 30, fol
lowing. All of these confessions of Judg
ment were executed to relatives and
friends and with one exception bore date
a few days prior to their entry,
FAILURE WA9 FRAUDULENT.
The conclusion to be reached from all
the facts Is evident. Without closing our
eyes to the manifest outcome of them,
we cannot but say the failure was a
fraudulent one. The validity of the Judg
ments by which It was effected is not In.
volved In this proceeding and we do not
pass upon them. It Is the purpose of the
defendant in confessing them with whk'h
we have now alone to deal. Assuming
thut they represent an honest indebted
ness, still the evidence shows that thuy
were given without suggestion or solici
tation and were purely voluntary on Mrs.
Driesen's part. Even taking her story
of expense and business losses, neither of
these Involve or discharge any such finan
cial pressure as compelled her to the step
taken; but discrediting the story In the
light of her repeated statements to the
contrary, as we well may, there is noth
ing to justify it.
If we do her injustice in this conclu
sion, and we have little fear upon that
score, why have not tho facts which
look so decidedly against her been
cleared? What has become of the money
realized from the fall business running
Into thousands of dollars? It does not do
to say that it has been paid out to other
creditors; such payment should be proved.
It Is said that the checks have been
lost in the disturbance Incident to the
sheriff's sale; but we discover no sueh
disturbance in the defendant's business
as that; it has in fact gone on altogether
too undisturbed to hear out such a sug
gestion, if not Indeed to wear the face of
an honest transaction. Where are the
books of the business, which would show
the state of her cash and merchandise
accounts? It is asserted that she had no
books and never had; we do not believe
it; the evidence Is that she had. .Mr.
Kaufman saw and examined them and
went over the accounts which they con
tained, and they were seen in use at the
Btore by others. m
PART OF A GENERAL SCHEME.
But the facts carry us even deeper
than this. Not only was there fraud in
the immediate failure of Mrs. Driesen and
the disposition of her property which It
Involved, but we are Justified by the evi
dence In regarding it as simply a part of
a general fraudulent scheme of which it
was the culmination and crowning act.
From the time that .Mr. and .Mrs. Driesen
began their season's purchases thjy were
manifestly getting ready for the linul out
come. This is the reasonable inference to
be drawn from the course of events Inter
preted In the light of the failure iuelf.
As the outcome of the whole evidence
we have then the following bold facts: A
large stock of goods obtuined upon a false
credit fictitiously secured; a forced sale on
voluntary confessions of Judgment to
family and personal friends Just ut the
season's close, nnd at the time so planned
that none of the general creditors are ap
parently In shape to Interfere; a purchase
of the whole stork In bulk in the name of
a member of the family who does not
himself pay the money and seems to know
very little about the transaction.
These methods have become so frequent
and notorious in a certain corner of the
business world as to be tho subject of
common observation and comment. The
ordinary man has no difficulty in pro
nouncing upon them and the courts ought
to be no less astute in understanding and
dealing with them.
When a transaction Is stamped as this
Is with all the ordinary badges of fraud
without a clear and satisfactory explana
tion, the parties who engage In It must
expect to have It Judged accordingly. If
It is not a fraud as It appears, let them
free it from the Imputation; a lame and
halting story will not do. With the affairs
of the concern covered up in missing
books which were not produced and
evidence grudgingly given such as we
have experienced bere we cannot be ex
pected to construe the facts over favora
bly to the defendant or to put an Innocent
luctt upon them for her benefit, which
they with difficulty would bear.
The charge of fraud is abundantly sus
tained and lliije is no ground for com
plaint against the attuchnieiit upon that
score.

"Hold una" or highway robbery on
the new Spruce street bridge is at an
end or will certainly be less frequent
in future. Mayor Bailey yesterday
signed the ordinance providing for
three electric arc lights on the bridge.
Since the bridge has been opened to
traffic it has proved a favorable stamp

thugs and not a week tins passed with
out several assaults taking place. An
inadequate number of police patrolmen
has made the lawlessness possible.
