Several reports from the street com mittee were favorably reportpd.nnd the recommendations adopted. The fire committee recommended that the nomination of P. P. Molllt for lire chief be confirmed.

To Hrtltor of Tho Tribune. I have heard the question sometimes aked, by what vote was John It, Jones, esq., nominated as District At torney of Lackawanna county, in tho Republican county convention, which convened In the Court house, Sept. 4, 1S04? Ills opponent lias distributed a- cir cular stnting that Mr. Jones received the nomination by a plurality ot only n Halt vote. This Is an error and, in justico to our District Attorney, I wish to correct it. I have referred to the Scranton Tribune Issued Sept. Bth, lbOt, containing an account of tho conven tion, nnd find the vote recorded a3 follows: Jones , 03 Watson 74 Colborn 17V4 Thus it appears that Mr. Jones re ceived nineteen votes more than George M. Watbon, and n plurality of one and one-half votes over his competitors. The other delegate, who had a half vote did not vote, on this ballot, al though ho was pledged to vote for Mr. Jones. He was dlxsatsfled with the decision of tho Committee on Creden tials. During that campaign Mr. Jones did not announce bis candidacy until a month before the convention. Mr, Wat son was then the slated candidate and had been working his campaign for many months. Mr,JoneR.called on his frlenrtB.thraUsbflUt.'thfc.'cdunty to rally to his assistance;. ZttayZO&tio, nnd he waa dominated by'nlheteejPvotcs over Mr.. Watson.
