County Judge Passes Up-I
on Multitude of Im
portant Matters.
CONSTABLES' FEE BILL
An Official Interpretation
a Portion of It.
of
Judge Gunster Sara Constables Arc
rutitlcd to 50 Conts for Kncli Per

Agnin Dented in the Jennings Cnsc,
nnd Jennings Directed to Iliro n
New Attorney-- Schubinchl Do

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
