Chief HIckcy, of tho lire department,
takes exception to tho stntcment that
appeared In ono of the mornins papers
charging; him with tho responsibility of
having common council chango Its de
cision on tho passago of tho resolution
respecting tho uso of tho chemical en
gine of tho Columbia company In tho pa
rade nt tho Firemen's Stato convention
to bo held In Wllkes-Barro next month.
It was a point of law that was raised In
regard to tho proceedure, and which was
appreciated by a number of tho council,
men, that prompted tho movement which
ended In tho reconsideration of the mat
ter and tho defeat of tho resolution. Tho
chief disclaims nny Interest In the move
ment. Evening Paper.
The chief Is far too modest and he
Is also unjust to himself. No matter
how much ho disclaims, the fact re
mains that he Is responsible for tho
change of front councils exhibited with
reference to the Columbia resolution.
It Is to the credit of councils that It
did change front, and Chief HIckey
deserves to bo commended for throwing
a new light on the tnibject for! the city
fathers.
The facts are as follows: The Colum
bia company wnnted permission to
take Its new combination wagon ar
chemical engine to Wllkes-Barre ' ..
7 to participate at the big pat tide
there. Everyone was willing, even
anxious that the request of the boys
should be granted, and Scranton's mod
ern equipment exhibited In the town
clown the creek. But tho wagon has
not yet arrived and when It doe3 may
not be satisfactory. It must be thor
oughly tested before the city accepts
It. This cannot be done In a day. The
passage of a resolution allowing the
wagon to be taken out of the city
might be construed ns an acceptance
of the apparatus. It is possible that
such action would put the city In a
eorry plight later on. Chief HIckey
realized this and as was his duty as
chief of the fire department told mem
bers of council about It. Then coun
cil reconsidered its action. Nothing
very disgraceful about that. Tho chief
was right. Let him stand by his ac
tion, even if the reconsideration did
make a few unthinking persons sore.
The wlfo of a prominent city onlclal
had a comical experience the other
evening, the r-fsult of a sudden whim
of several Junior members of her fam
ily and other friends. It was all be
cause of a trolley rldo suggested after
dinner. At first th'a party, numbering
half a score, thought of going to Throop
but after waiting for an open car, n
the evening was worm, until they were
discouraged, they wandered down Wy
oming avenue and boarded ono with
the Intention of ridlnc to Providence.

thnt they go on to Peckvlllo tts It watt
"Just a little way." They went. Tho
obliging chapcrone did not consider
thnt Bho had brought only a small
Bum of money and contrary to her ex
pectations nnd tho assertions of tho
aforesaid nmnll boy It required tho ad
vancing of five cents at more frequent
Intervals than had been foreseen. Pho
had never been to Peckvlllo on tho
trolley nnd hnd no Idea It was so far
nt d by the time tho return Journey
wob begun tho hour wns so late that
she was somewhat alarmed, particular
ly as It wns discovered that united
financial lesources of tlv- party was
about three cents "shy" of the amount
necessary to take them back to Scrnn
ton. Great was their consternation,
They were nt a lonely part of the road,
tlw conductor wasn't an engaging per
son and looked ns If ho would willingly
deposit them nt tho roadside In tho
dark night. Tho small boy who had
made nil the trouble then came to tho
rescue by volunteering to til his pock
et knife for tho salvation of tho travel
ing combination. "I'll go outside where
they won't think I belong to you, ' ho
remarked with exceptional considera
tion, "nnd I'll get something for It."
Just what ho did get has not yet been
divulged, but he made some sort of a
bargain, secured enough money to tnkj
the party home safely, and after many
delays they reached that haven at 11.30
p. m. to face a bully frlgh'tencd nnd
much vexed husband and fatli-r who
doesn't know yet that his family cam.
near to being "put off nt Peckvllle for
tho want of three cents." The chap
crone declares that slu now has some
Idea what It would be to bo stranded
far from friends and without funds.
Mrs. II. A. Connell Is still suffering
Intensely from tho Injuries received to
her loft hand In tho railroad accident
three weeks ago. The flesh continues
to slouch off and It Is impossible to
tell what the condition of tho maimed
fingers will bo wlwn healed.
It Is a coincidence that tho chair
man of the Republican nnd Democratic
county committees, John II. Thomas
and Colonel Frank J. Fltzslmmons, re
spectively, are natives of Carbondale.
That's a birthright of which neither
may bo ashamed In what Is bound to
come in extollng the virtues nnd criti
cising the two men. The worst that
the colonel has to fear is his greatest
falling, his political faith.
MAKES GRAVE CHARGE.
Alderman John F. Atkinson, of Carbon
dale, Accused of High-Handed Deal
log In ills Official Capacity.
According to the sworn statements
of Moses Seldman and his son, Max,
contained In the Information filed In a
$10,000 damage case yesterday against
Alderman John F. Atkinson, of the
Fourth ward, of Carbondale, that of
ficial nnd his constable, Stephen Gll
roy, are vastly peculiar oillclals.
Tho elder Seldman, who makes the
airirmatlon, says that Atkinson drop
ped Into his place of business Thurs
day nnd bade him come around to his
olllce at 2.30 o'clock In the afternoon.
He went to the alderman's office at the
appointed time to find out what was
wanted of him and Immediately upon
his arrival, Atkinson directed the con
stable to handcuff him, which was
done. Seldman asked what he had
done to deserve such treatment, but
no one would deign to tell him.
Three hours later Constable Gilroy
reappeared with Seldman's son, Max,
and when the latter demanded an ex
planation of his father's being held a
prisoner he was also placed In Irons
by direction of tho alderman. After
being kept this way for some time
longer Atkinson agreed to release the
father and son upon the payment of
$10. Seldman unwillingly consented,
but after he had paid over the $10,
Atkinson demanded $13.70 more for
costs, and when Seldman refused to
pay It he was again taken Into custody
nnd the handcuffs placed on his wrists.
For two hours and a half ho held out
against what he considered daylight
robbery, but finally gave In and paid
the $13.70 nnd was allowed to depart
from the olllci.
Yesterday he came to this city and
had Martin & Vldaver Institute pro
ceedings against the alderman for as
sault and battery and false Imprison
ment, and will also move, he says, to
have him Impeached. Tho alderman's
side of the story, of course, Is yet to
bo heard.

with .Much Money to 1'ny Losses.
Scrnnton's business and financial men
are possibly unaware of tho favorablo
opinion In insurance circles concern
ing this city's recently organized
American Mutual Indemnity company.
The current lssuo of the Mutual Un
derwriter nnd Savings and Loon Bo
view, of Rochester, contains r.eurly a
page of Interesting reading matter con
cerning tho new Scranton company and
devotes a whole page to pictures of Its
chief officers and the Traders' bank
building In which Its offices are lo
cated. The article reads as follows:
"In Its last Issue the Underwriter
announced tho organization of the
American Mutual Indemnity company
of Pctunton, Pa. In this Issue It Is Its
privilege to submit on tho opposite
page an excellent portrait of some)
of Its officers, together with Its home
office. "While the birth of an accident
company does not generally eclto
much comment, tho American Mutual'
Indemnity company, by reason of tho
wealthy men Interested In It, the fact
thnt It Is under an experienced man
agement, together with tho vigorous
manner In which It Is hustling for busi
ness all of these conditions speak well
for Its future and Indicate that Scran
ton will be the h'ome of an Institution
In which It may well take pride.
' Tho American Mutual will not limit
ltiflf to tho personal acclde- jsl
ness. It will write boiler, iployers'
liability, public liability, team, elevator,
workmen's collection, steamboat, and
common carrier's liability policies. To
succesfully carry out tho extensive
plans of the management, the directors
have put considerable capital Into tho
business. Indeed, It Is claimed that this
company commences business with
more money on hand to pay losses than
nny similar company. Certain It Is
that no exponsj has bien spared In
securing the services of the best field
meii In the nccldent and liability busi
ness, while the literature Is highly ar
tistic and attractive.
ORIGINAL FEATURES.
"The policy features are decidedly or
iginal and will meet with favor among
Insurers. The partial Indemnity nnd
sickness clause In the personal accident
policy Is a desirable one and agents will
find that there Is ample field for It.
It Is a policy that Is advantageous
lioth for agent and Insured. The lia
bility contracts contain the same fea
tures and limitations that policies Is
sued by stock companies do. The rates
are, however, fully thirty per cent, low
era condition which cannot but at
tract tho attention of those who regard
saving as equivalent to making money.
"There should h a prosperous ca
reer before the American Mutual and
It Ehould enjoy this from practically
the very outstart. It really has no
competitors In tho liability lines from
mutual companies. The directors are
all heavy insurers themselves and their
business acquaintance will bo of ma
terial assistance In calling attention
to Its merits and plans.
"The directors of ths company are
C. II. Zehnder, president Dickson Man
ufacturing company; ex-Sheriff Chas.
Robinson, E. Robinsons' Sons, brewers;
15. G. Brooks, vice president Dime Dis
count bank, vice president West Side

LIABILITY INSURANCE.
"The subject of liability insurnnca is
de&ervjng of more than passing com
ment. Legislation and decisions of
courts tend more nnd moro to throw
the onus of responsibility for accidents
to workmen upon their omployers and
to hold tha latter to a strict measure
of accountability. Employers general
ly are not familiar with the law of neg
ligence which operatesi frequently to
Inflict serious losses upon them, curtail
ing profits to tho last degree and depre
ciating commercial credit. Irrespective
of legitimate claims for Injury found
ed on an element of liability to tho em
ployer, numerous unjust claims arv
filed dally and persons making such
claims find no difficulty, with tho aid of
unscrupulous attorneys (those whoso
fee Is a share of the recovery), to carry
their cases to the courts, relying for
success upon the sympathy of Juries
and tho like. The American Mutual
holds Itself In readiness to offer In
demnity against damages, where a
claim Is rightfully made, and likewise
it affords protection against unjust
claims and vexatious and costly litiga
tion. "The foregoing, coupled with tho oth
er forms of indemnity afforded, glve3
ngonts a wide field In which to work.
They are not limited to ono particular
form of casualty protection. In addi
tion, tho general public secures Its pro
tection at a rate much lower than has
hitherto been offered and In a company
composed of those who rank high In
the commercial world because of their
business ability, personal Integrity and
financial strength.
"Tho American Mutual Indemnity
company starts out under most gratify
ing auspices and th'e Underwriter has
no hesitancy In submitting tho forecast
that it will have a long and prosperous
career."

Willie Jordan, Dittcn by a Mad Bull
Doe on March 8 Last, Dies
of Hydrophobia.
Willie Jordan, aged ten years, died
at tho homo of his parents, Mr. and
Mrs. John F. Jordan, 012 West Lacka
wanna avenue, over Martin's hotel, at
9.50 o'clock last evening, and In accord
ance with the certificate of the attend
ing physicians, Drs. W. F. Brady and
Ludwlg Wehlau, his death was due to
hydrophobia. Ho Is the second victim
to succumb to the wounds Inflicted by
the bull dog owned by Henry Brod
hun, on March 8 last.
The bov was first taken 111 Wednes
day afternoon and grew gradually
worse until death. Despite the fact
that his suffering was attributed to the
dread disease, the boy did not at any
time develop the most alarming symp
toms of this terrible aflllctl.n. Not
until Thursday morning did he show
signs of the spasms and then they oc
curred infrequently and In a mild
form. No frothing occurred until yes
terday afternoon nbout 2 o'clock. Dur
ing yesterday morning the application
of chloroform was made frequently to
prevent the agonizing contortions, but
up to tho very moment of death the
lad retained his senses and recognized
everyone he knew.
In the afternoon he drank some wnter
and manaced to swallow some diluted
spirits. He frequently requested n,
drink of water or milk, but when
offered he said he did not 'feel able to
swallow It and would wait. His death
was peaceful.

SPEERS TO ANSWER
CHARGE OF FORGERY
Arrested Hero by Defective Crawford, of
Philadelphia.
IIB WAS VERY MUCH SURPRISED
Lnst Monday Spoors Oponcd Offices
in tho Itookcry on Washington Ave
nue ns tho Head of tho Klondlko
(old Inspecting and Mining Expe
dition of Hcrnnton--Nothlnc Known
Hero or tha Tncti In tho Cnso
Against Him.
The "Klondike Gold" company.whlch
flaunted Its shingle from the Rookery
building, corner of Washington avenue
and Spruce street, closed Its doors yes
terday and tho "company," which con
sists of ono L. W. Spcers, was escorted
by a detective to Philadelphia, whore
Specrs will be called upon to answer
a charge of forgery. The detective
assured tho Scranton police that ho
had saved them a great deal of work
by stepping upon the "Gold company"
when he did.
, The man came here about a week
ago and last Monday opened two rooms
In the Rookery, facing Washington
avenue. He furnished tho apartments
In elaborate style. Ono room was
marked "private olllco." Specrs pur
ported to represent a company which
controlled "claims" galore in the Klon
dike region. Ho sold stock at various
rates, the average being twenty-five
dollars. It Is not known Just how
many Scranton speculators speculated,
but judging from Specrs' remarks they
were not few.
DETECTIVES VISITED HIM.
Yesterday morning Detective Thomas
G. Crawford arrived from Philadelphia
with a warrant charging Speers with
forgery. Ho went to police headquar
ters and secured the assistance of De
tective John Molr and together they
went to tho "Gold company's" office.
Speers received them graciously,
believing them to be prospective cus
tomers. They nt first let him think so.
He talked about his business, saying
everything was going nicely and that
the payments would all be due In a
few days. As they talked the owner
of the Rookery, evidently scenting
danger In the presence of Detective
Molr, whom he knew, entered the office.
He called Speers aside, and the de
tectives learned from scraps of the
conversation that Speers was being
dunned for his rent.
"In a few days," he said; "In a very
few days my money will be coming
in," and with this the solicitor was
dismissed.
When Speers re-Jolned tho two de
tectives he was Informed that he'd
"better lock up his shop; you've got to
go to Philadelphia."
"To Philadelphia!" exclaimed tho as
tonished Specrs, as he grew limp and
pale.
IT WAS A DEATH BLOW.
The warrant was then read. Speers,
at the conclusion, threw up his hands:
"This Is a body blow, a death-blow,"
ho muttered.
The shop was closed and Speers was
taken to Philadelphia on the 2.2S Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western train.
Detective Molr stated last evening that
ho expects a run of creditors at police
headquarters today. Speers' hotel bill
Is unpaid.
Speers' line of business Is told In the
following words which still stand out
on the canvass banner fastened to the
Rookery: "Klondike Gold Inspecting
and Mining Expedition of Scranton.
Rendy for business In these offices
Monday, September 20." Detective
Crawford did not know the circum
stances tf Speers' Philadelphia alleged
