Equity court's May session wns con cluded yesterdny afternoon at 4 o'clock. There were only four cases on the list, and all were disposed of, with the ex ception of one, the suit between the township of Lackawanna nnd the city of Scranton, over the Bellcvue heights' school taxes, which was continued by agreement. Yesterday was given over to the hearlnfr of the ease of William II, Davltt against Joseph Duggan and Pat rick Cullen. The parties nil live. In $rovO Y- - t 61' 9C rOCjCov GL&5L Jk-s O O rX'JL, Providence. Some years ago Davltt set his eye on a lot owned by the Wlnton estate and proceeded to make overtures for Its purchase. Duggan, hearing of this, went to Davltt and explaining that he had some Influence with the agent of the Wlnton estate, agreed for a consideration of $10 to strike a bargain for Davltt. PURCHASED BY CONTRACT. The lot was purchased by contract for $17.". Duggan representing that he wanted It for himself and having the papers made out In his own name, Davltt paid $55 In Installments to Duggan to be applied on the lot and then for some reason which did not develop, let the payments go by de fault for a time. Later when he again proceeded to resume his payments, he discovered that Duggan had agreed to turn the lot over to his brother-in-law, Patrick Cullen, and, had already re ceived a payment from him. He now wants court to compel Dug gan to sell him the lot or to return him whatever he has not paid over to ths Wlnton estate, and allow him, the plaintiff, to deal direct with the es tate. The answer of the defendants was that there was on oral agreement by which Davltt lost his right to the lot by reason of his neglect to keep up the payments. SUIT OVER LAND. In the case of the Delaware, Lacka wanna and Western Railroad company against John Edwards a rule was granted on the defendant requiring him to appear and plead on or before Sept. 20, 1S97, or suffer Judgment to be entered against him by default. The suit Is to recover title to a lot of land on Bhch street, In thn Sixth ward, which Edwards bargained to purchase by contract, hut never finished paying for. He has left the city and the sher iff reported that he was unable to find him. In the case of John S. Bortree against Albert Buttermnn a rule was granted on the sheriff to show cause why he shall not execute a writ of possession for a property owned by the defendant and purchased at sheriff's sale by the plaintiff. Alderman Wright, after a trial by Jury, decreed that a writ of possession should Issue for the plain tiff. Tho sheriff refused to execute the writ, ns parties gave him notice that they had a claim to the prop erty. E. C.

Attorney James Malidn Appears for the Defendants in the Fellows Smith Equity Suit. Through Attorney James Mahon, the defendants In tho equity suit of Joseph Fellows against Cornelius Smith nnd John Stanley Smith, yesterday made answer to tho hill of tho plaltijtlff with a demurrer In which It Is nlegred that the action does not belong In' equity court. Y"UA ',JV. v - 0-T-tfv.juv- o-L Aj - ut, uo-tjy ) Q-awJfc The suit In question was brought by Felows to recover from the Smiths an Interest in Fellows' lands, which It is alleged, Cornelius Smith, while acting as Fellows' attorney, secured by fraud. Fellows was Induced, so It Is alleged, to deed a portion of his land to John Stan ley Smith, the attorney's son, In con sideration of a monthly allowance to Fellows and certain other stipulations, agreed upon between the attorney and client. Smith tired of the bargain and withdrew from it, promising to destroy the deed conveying the land to his son. After lengthy litigation Fellows came Into unquestioned title of the land and upon going to the court house one dny dlscoveied that the deed had not been destroyed, but entered In John Stanley Smith's name. These facts were set forth In a bill In equity and court was petitioned two weeks ago to compel the Smith's to reconvey the land to Fellows. In the answer tho defendants aver that the complainant does not allege that he has title and does not show that he is the owner of the land In question; nlso that there is nothing In the bill upon which court can assume Jurisdiction in equity , THEY KNEW N0T0URBEAUTIES.

PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION DENIED The Warring l'nctlons of tho Wlnton Council ,11 list Come Together nnd Settle Their Differences by Quo Warranto l,rocnidliiRs-"Tlio Legal ity ofElthcr Organization Hinges on the 'Ninth Councilranu Sketch of Trouble and Whnt Led Up to It. Judge Edwards yesterday handed down an opinion refusing the prelimin ary Injunction brought by ono faction of the Wlnton school board to restrain tho other from acting, tn his finding Judge Edwards says: There are two bodies In tho borough of Wlnton, each claiming to be tho regular borough council. IJoth bodlos meet In the borough building, both pretend to carry on tho government of the borougn, each having Its own officer. and ruch hav ing five members, Although thr borough hns but nlno councllrren. Thp following circumstances account for the existence of these two rival organizations: 1. On Feb. C, 1S3C, this court made a decreo dividing tho borough of Wlnton Into three wurds and directed that three councllmcn should be elected for the Flr.n ward, one for one year, ono tor two eara, and ono for three years; oni councilman for the Second ward for three years, nnd one councilman from the Third ward for throe years. WHAT BARRETT CLAIMS. 2. At the election held In February, 1(500, In tho Third ward, with only one council man to elect, P. C.Walsh re:ehed 103 votes and Edward Costello 71 votes. Tho words "for three years" were printed on tho ballots after Costello's imme, but no words designated the number of years after Walsh's name. Walsh was admitt ed as a member of tho council nnd acted ns such for tho year 1830 and claims tho right to act for two years more. 3. At the February election of 1837, as tho returns show, William Barrett re ceived In the Third ward 6t voes for tho ofllce of councilman. He claims the rlg'U of u member nf tho borough council by virtue of Ms election. Rarrett held that Costello was legally elected and not Walsh, and as Costello failed to qualify a vancancy existed. This vacancy he claims ho was duly elected to fill at tho next succeeding election. 4. When tho tlmo came for tho council to organtzo in March, eight councllmen, whose titles to their offices are undlspute 1, were presented. They were apparently divided with I'. C. Walsh as tho fifth member, attempted an orgnnteation, and, according to certain minutes presented by their secretary did organize. Tho other four members, with William Barrett as tho fifth member did llkowlso and their secretary presented minutes showing an organization. Theso alleged o.gonizatlons by both factions were not by any means of a peaceful and orderly chcracter. Thaio was great confusion and an Incipient riot. Tho proceedings were disgraceful. Wo cannot call them by any other name. Tho foregoing Is a brief statement of the facts of tho case according to the evi dence taken. It will be easily teen that the legality of cither organization depends upon tho right of Barrett and Walsh to tho ofllce of councilman of the Third ward of tho borough of Wlnton. It would bo Impo.-tslblo for us to decMa the question of granting an Injunction In this ca?e without llrM deciding the right of Barrett f.r Walsh to the said ofllce. THEIR LEGAL REMEDY. Under theso circumstances tho parti's must be relegated to their legal remedy, which Is a writ of quo warranto. It makes no differenco which of the c'.ulmants shall bo the nctor. They ought to agree on a case stated. Tho fucts are undisputed. The legal question in dispute could be dis poned of speedllv, and should bo In the In terests of the borough, Co'insel for plaintiffs refer to Kerr vs. Trego, 47 Pa, 232 This case stands alono In the list of adjudicated cases touching tho question of the organization of coun cils. The facts tnvolved tn It wcro un usual and of an extraordinary character. We do not see how It 'Is nny authoilty for the plaintiffs position In this case. As was said by Justice Green In Bedford Springs Company vs. McMeen ct. al., 161 Pa., C33: "Questions of election were not raised or decided," referring to certain cases cited. Tho same Is true of Kerr vs. Trego. Tho light to quell a disturbance in councils, mad by disorderly persons, was the chief subject of contention. Tho subject of tho validity of the election of tho Incoming members was not discussed or decided. Tho remedy at law when tho llllo to a public ofllce Is Involved Is adequate and exclusive: Gllroy's appeal, 100 Pa 15; Bedford Springs company vs. McMeen, et. al., supra; Golds worthy, et, al., s, Boyle, et, al., 173 Pa. 21fi.

Tho full text of tho supreme court opinion in the Handlcy estate appraise ment for the collection of tho collateral Inheritance tax was, received by Hon. Lemuel Amerman, yesterday. Judge Archbald Is reversed In his finding that the Virginia and West Vir ginia properties are subject to the tax and it is decreed that the tax 1s not payable In any case until the legatees receive their respective shares. It was nlso decided that the Inheritance tax Is collectable on tho money pet about for tho payment of tho tuition of boys nnd girls whom Judge Handley was maintaining at school. The appraiser, H. E. Paine, estimated the value of tho estate to he $1,374,669. 21. Judge Archbald cut this down to $8?G,SG9.21. Mr. Paine valued tho Vir ginia and West Virginia lands nt S379, S00; Judge Archbald reduced It to $151, 200. Mr. Paine fixed tho amount of tax payable to tho state all at once, $68, 933.46. Judge Archbald reduced it to $44,343.46, payable at once. Tho su preme court cuts off this tho five per cent, tax of the $151,200, or $7,560, and makes it payable during o. period of twenty years. Judge Archbald decided that the St. Patrick's Orphanage, the House of the Good Shepherd and the city of Win chester were each entitled to one-third of the cail royalties. The supreme court decides th'at a construction of the will could not bo made at this time, and therefore the question of the dis tribution of these royalties Is a matter to bo decided in the future.
