Yesterday morning In common plcns court when tho plalntlil's rested In tho suit of John Mornn agnlnst the Scrun ton Traction company, Mnjor Warren nnd Horncp-K. Hand, attorneys for the defense, moved for n compulsory non suit on the ground! that no negli gence on the part of the company had been shown and contilbutoty negli gence on tho part of Mrs. Mornn had been clearly established. Messrs. Burns and Donahoe, attorneys for tho plaintiff, vigorously opposed tho mo tion, but Judge Gunster afilrmcd the contention of the defendants, nnd granted a non-suit with a rule to show cause why It should not bo stricken off, retui liable at argument court. Tho Jury in tho case of A. J. 51c Hugh against the estate of Richard Mcllugh,. deceased, to recover on an ?S00 Judgment given In 1867 returned a verdict yesterday morning in favor of the plaintiff for the full amount of the claim with interest, amounting all told to $1,742.02, In tho "case of the Computing Scale company against James Bird a ver dict for the plaintiff In the sunfbf $64.1S was rendered.

Klllam appear for the r' intlff, and Major Warren and Hon. L V. O'Malley for the defend ant. Eschelman was run down by one of Warman's laundry wagons Decem ber 27, 1891, as. ho was walking along Dickson avenue near Its intersection with the Delaware and Hudson tracks. He alleges that he has been permanent ly injured and by reason of the injury had to give up his business of driving a bakery wagon and seek some easier and less remunerative occupation. The feature of the trial was Major Wan en's cross examination of Drs. Arndt and Allen, who were called to tell of the seriousness of Kschelman's Injuries. The manner In which he filed technical question and anomatical terms at the physicians must have led them to believe at least that the law was not the only strong point In the Major's Intellectual make-up. Judge Jessup, representing Henry Wehrum, general manager of the Lack awanna Iron and Steel company, com plained before Judge Gunster of the Ir regularity and insufficiency of the bond given by the Erie nnd Wyoming Valley Railroad company as Indemnity for damages that may accrue from the taking by tho latter company of a small stiip of land adjacent to the steel com pany's new roaster opposite Nay Aug pat k. BOND NOT SUFFICIENT. The bond is for $.",000 and is given jointly to the Lackawnna Iron and Steel company and the Lackawanna Iron and Coal company. Tho complaint alleges that the land in question Is owned severally by the two compa nies and that a separate bond should be given to each; also that the bond is Insufficient because the damages that will result to tho fcteel company will be in the neighborhood of $100,000; the seizure of this particular strip making It necessary for the complainant to build a new road to connect the mills and the toaster and rendering practic ally valuless for the uses Intended the plot of land which the seized strip sep arates from tho roaster. Judge Gunster directed that new and adequate bond be submitted. EISTEDDFOD IN MAY. Annual Event Will He Conducted by the Robert .11 orris Lodge.

Democrats Haven't Knitted Their Choice I'o r Engineer and Liur. The Democrats of councils havo not met In Joint caucus to nominate can didates against City Solicitor Torrey and City Engineer Phillips, who have been nominated by tho Republicans for re-electlen. A joint caucus of the Democrats will probably be held Sat urday night although no call has been Issued. There is no material change in the plan of the Democrats to name M. E. McDonald for the sollcltorshlp and E. F. Blewltt to oppose Mr. Phillips. Both of them, hpwever, have their enemies In councils and their nomination does not by any means insure an election, even with the Democratic majority of two votes on Joint ballot. Attorney Edward C. Newcomb was npptOached by certain Democrats, his personal friends, and asked to consent to a nomination. Mr. Newcomb flatly declined the honor. Common council meets In regular sesnlon tonight. The joint meeting Will be held Monday night. It was announced Immediately fol lowing the election of John P. Mahon as clerk of common council that Will iam McLean would be employed as as sistant clerk. McLean served In that capacity up to the election of ex Clerk Hatton. The appointment is not certain according to' a report In the city hall yesterday that Clerk Mahon would name as assltant his brother, Anthony. AMUSEMENTS. . Tho only and original Peter F.
