CONSTABLES' FEE BILL An Official Interpretation a Portion of It. of Judge Gunster Sara Constables Arc rutitlcd to 50 Conts for Kncli Per son Suhpocnncd IlutNot to "Circu lar" .Milcngo--Chnnuo of Vcnuo Agnin Dented in the Jennings Cnsc, nnd Jennings Directed to Iliro n New Attorney-- Schubinchl Do clnred Secretary of the Olyphnnt Councll--Otlier Cnscs Hrtndcd Down by tho Court. That court was not Idle during the spring recess was made apparent yes terday morning when Judges Archbald nnd Gunster and Edwards come on the bench and handed down a bushel bas ket full of orders and opinions. With all these multitude of cases, a session of equity court, grand jury meeting, constables returns and sundry minor matters, It may be well believed that the court house attaches were kept close to the busy murk. The most Important of the opinions was that of Judge Gunster In the case stated between Richard Barran nnd the county commissioners. The suit was brought at the lnstnnce of the County Constables' association, of which Bar ron Is president, nnd for tho purpose of settling the dispute between the county commissioners, and the con stables as to certain Items of the fee bill. The commissioners held that the law provided that constables were entitled to only CO cents for serving a sub poena, no matter how many names might appear upon It, and that In figuring up the mileage the distance fiom the point from which the sub poena was made returnable to the point at which it was served was to be reck oned and not from the one point to the other and back again. Judge Gunster decided that the con stable Is entitled to CO cents for each person subpoenaed but not to "circu lar" mileage. THE JENNINGS CASE. At the last term of argument court Major Everett Warren, attorney for tho defendant In the case of John G. Jennings ngalnst the Lehigh Valley Railroad company, called the attention of court to the disbarment of Corne lius Smith and the fact that this left the plaintiff in the case without any attorney of record. Ho asked that court compel Jennings to engage a new attorney. Jennings petitioned for a change of venue, that Smith might act for him; also alleging the usual claims that he could not secure a fair and unprejudiced trial In this county. Yesterday Judge Edwards disposed of both matters as follows: John G. Jennings vs. Lehigh Valley Rail, road company. Rulo on plaintiff to cm ploy new counsel: Tho rulo on plaintiff to employ new counsel In this case Is hereby made auso lue. Plaintiff renews his application fcr a change of venue. This question was dis posed of by an opinion of this court, filed Aug. 17, ISM. Tho application for a chango of vcnuo Is denied. By tho court, H. M. Edwards, A. L. J. ' SCHUBMEHL SECRETARY. In th'e case of Mary Sehaum against James Nolan and C. Q. Carman Judge Edwards struck off the judgment of non. pros, saying that the case is of suillclent Importance to be submitted to a jury. Illegal constable's sale Is the ground for the suit. In the case of tho commonwealth ex rel. Thomas Curran against William Fchubmehl, Judge Archbald discharged the rule for a new trial and directed Judgment to be entered for the respond ent with' costs. The Issue In this caso was tho right of Mr. Sehubmehl to oc cupy the office of secretary of the bor ough council of Olyphant. At the elec tion March 11, 1500, Mr. Sehubmehl re ceived the votes of six of the twelve elected councllmen. The relators con tended that there was no quorum. Secretary Cummlngs' minutes showed that there were three members present who did not vote. The relators held that he had no right to record them as being present as they did not an swer to their names. Judge Archbald contended that there was no law or parliamentary rule confining a secre tary to uso of but one sense when be has five nnd as it was on this point the Issue h'fnged tho relators' case fell. The county treasurer sought to sell for taxes tho Ewlng tract In Spring Brook or rather that part of It used by the Spring Brook Water company for water shed purposes. Tho company contended that the water-shed is ex empt from local taxation for tho same reason that a reservoir is, both coming under the head public benefit. Judge Edwards maks perpetual the injunc tion restraining tho treasurer from selling the lands and adds: "It would be unreasonable and inconsistent to say that tho eight acres coveted by the dam and reservoir should be exempt from local taxation, whilo the contigu ous land en tho same tract, which is used for the sole purpose of keeping the water In the stream and in tho reser voir pure should be subject to taxa tion." APPEAL WILL STAND. "In view of the fact that tho plain tiff relies on a. technical defect and considering that the law favors the right of appeal, wo Kava concluded to discharge the rule and allow the appeal to etand," is tho finding of Judge Ed wards, in tho case of J. E. Jodfrey against tho borough of Olyphant. Jod frey secured judgment beforo a Justice of tho peace for two months' work aa an electrician. Tho borough appealed. Jodfrey strovo to have tho appeal stricken off because tho borough did not givo security fcr costs und make affidavit that the appeal was not in tended for the purpose of delay. Se curity for costs, the judge also hold, was not necessary Jn tho case of a municipality appealing from the Judg ment of a justice ot tho peace. In discharging tho rula to tako eft . the non-suit in the cuao of Thomas IN COURTS Reese ngalnst the Delaware, Lacka wanna nnd Western company Judgo Gunster Bold: "A careful review of the testimony satisfies us that tho non suit was properly granted, and for th'o reasons grsnll nt tho time." Ileoso sued for damages for the death of his 17-yecr-old boy who was killed by a car in tho mines, alleging that ho was squeezed to dentil at n point where tho passago way between the "rib" nnd the track was not of the width requited by law. The defense way a denial of this nnd the allegation of contributory neg ligence. , HORE'S PETIllON QUASHED. Judge Edwnrds, yesterday, made ab eolute the rule to quash the petition of Martin Hore, who contested the elec tion of John P. Kelly to tho office of alderman of the Eighteenth ward. In his opinion Judgo Edwards says: "One of tho essential requisites of a. petition to contest an election of tho fourth class, according to the act of assembly, is that It shall be signed by twenty five qualified electors who voted at the election contested. It is Just as im portant that the petitioners shall have voted at such election as it Is that they should be qualified electors. It re quires no argument to convince us of this proposition. Recapitulating the results Indicated by the testimony, we find that thirteen of the petitioners aro disqualified, leaving only nineteen qualified electors who voted at the election as signers of the petition, th'o law requiring twenty-five. The rule to quash tho petition Is made absolute and the petition Is quashed at the costs of the petitioner." O'Brien & Kelly are attorneys for the respondent. I n tho case of Allan Lawrence against the Scranton Traction company the rule for a new trial was yesterday made absolute. The plaintiff sues to recover $10,000 for the death of his 4-year-old boy, who was killed by a trol ley car on Adams avenue in 1894. The defendants were defeated last fall and applied for a new trial. Judge Gun ster allows It on the ground that court erred In admitting evidence of habitual negligence on the part of the parents In looking after the child. GRAND JURY IN SESSION. The grand Jury for the June term of court began its session yesterday morn ing. D. L. Doty, farmer, of Waverly, waa made foreman. In charging the jury Judge Arch bald referred to the system In vogue In some counties of supplying each grand juror with a pamphlet outlining his duties and obligations, that he might study It In the Interim between his being drawn and the time of the Jury's session. Tho Judge said he fa vored the adoption of the plan for this county. SAID GO FORTH AND FIND. When Constable Thomns Walsh, of the Sixth ward, came before Judge Archbald yesterday and made the ster eotyped report that everything In his bailiwick was in apple pie order the Judge handed him back his return and told him he had better nose around and see If there was any truth in the re ports that liquor is being sold Illegal ly in his ward. The constable took the paper and went out to see If there could possibly be even the slightest grounds for the court's suspicions. J. F. AVoelkers, Eleventh ward, Scranton, reported Hickory street, where the Traction company tore up Its tracks, and Remington avenue at Elr street In bad condition. J.lrV. Clark, Eighteenth ward, Scran ton, reported James Walsh and Patrick McHaleas keeping tippling houses, and John Jouharz as selling on Sunday. M. B.
