MANY CASES OF DIPHTHERIA.
Disease Is Prevalent in All Parts of
the City.
Twenty-two now cases of diphtheria
were reported to the board of health
last week. The disease prevails In all
parts of the city, the North ISnd anil
South Side in particular. The cause
assigned is tho frequent weather
changes.
Board of health officials attach no
special slsnillcancc to the prevalence
of the malady. They say the number
of new cases per week will drop to the
normal as soon as there comes a spell
of settled weather.
Thirty-four deaths, tho usual rate,
resulted during tho week from all
causes.
It Is better to take Hood's Sarsa

HIGH WATER RATES
TO BIG CONSUMERS
Petition Against It by Many of tbc Large
Customers.
U0ARD OF TRADE MAY KICK
Petitioners Wish tlio Hoard to Join in
Their Kcmomtrnnce-- Report of tho
Publications Coiuimttco on I'nlic
Advertising Was Adoptcd--8lov
Repairs to Asphalt mill tho Too
J.ow Tnv Assessments Wcro Ili9
cussed nml Sent to Committee.
Without previous announcement or
expectation that last night's meeting
of tho board of trade would develop
ninny matters of particular Interest, a
number of questions of no little moment
to the board's constituency of business
men were disposed of. These included
an alleged excessive water rate charged
largo consumers, the report on "fake"
advertising, a discussion of question
able managements of charity enter
tnlnmcnts, a report on freight rate ad
justment and a discussion of unfair tax
assessments.
It was reported by Secretary Ather
ton that a number of the city's larger
manufacturing nnd commercial con
cerns hnd petitioned the Scranton Gas
and Water company to reduce Its water
rate to large consumers. The petl
tloners naked the board to consider th
matter and join them In their effort
to procure a readjustment of tho rate.
It was stated that the company's
commercial rate was S cents per 1,000
gallons, while but 2V& cents was charged
in Huffnlo nnd Harrisburg, 1 cents In
Hrooklyn and Philadelphia, 4 cents
in Syracuse nnd corresp md'nply low
rates in other large cities. Secretnry
Atherton remarked that it was true
that present water rates were so high
as to Interfere with the board's efforts
to secure new manufacturing enter
prises for this city.
On motion of Mr. Lansing the mat
ter was teferred to the manufacturers
committee with instructions to pro
cure additional data and report nt the
next meeting of tho board.
FAKE ADVERTISING.
The report nnd recommendations of
the publications committee concerning
"fake" advertising and a remedy were
presented by R. J. Foster, chairman of
tho committee. The report has already
been published in full in The Tribune.
It provides that members of the board
shall not contract for advertising In
programmes, etc.. for the bonelit of
various kinds of organizations unless
the solicitors are provided with cer
tificates from the secretary of the
board approving- their schemes,
A letter from a bill posting firm ask
ing that the report lie amended so as
'o lend the board's approval of poster
advertising was read by the secretary,
but did not meet Uh any definite ac
tion. The same was true of Mr. Lans
ing's suggestion that tho report "rec
ommend" the plan of the publication
committee rather than emphatically
state that "the members will
not under any circumstances
give an advertisement, etc., etc."
Apropos of the advertising discus
sion Mr. Kemmerer criticized the man
agement of the recent entertainment
for the bonellt of the Associated Char
ities from which 0,0 per cent, of the
proceeds were paid to the managers of
the enterprise. He said that out of
every $10 which many charitably dis
posed persons paid for tickets, only
$1 found Its way to the Associated
Charities. Mr. Levy stated that $140
was the small sum paid to the Asso
ciated Charities as a result of the en
tertainment, according to information
furnished him by one of the board.
AHOUT FREIGHT HATES.
Mr. Kemmerer and C. II. Pond were
appointed a committee to go before
the managers of the Trunk Lino Traf
fic association and endeavor to secure
more equitable freight rates to and
from this city. It had appeared, ac
cording to reports of the transporta
tion committee at previous meetings,
that Scranton suffered from excessive
rates from both New Yoik city and the
west when compared with the mote
favorable rates enjoyed by other points.
It was remarked by Mr. Kemmerer
that one Scranton establishment saved
money on western shipments by ship
ping its goods from New York city.
A complaint that there was nn un
necessary and unreasonable delay on
the part of the street commissioner and
tho Barber Asphnlt Paving company
In the hitter's failure to bt-gln work
on its asphnlt repair contract, was an
swered by Mr. Keller. It had not been
determined by councils until two weeks
ago that the street commissioner had
sup'-rvlslon over repair work. Mean
while the work had been at times pre
vented by frequent and heavy rains.
Some repairing had been done, how
ever. Mr. Kemmerer eald that inasmuch as
properties selling for S1T..O0O on Lacka
wanna avenue, and having frontages
of 2,"i feet, had been assessed at only
$.Vfi00, and in view of countless other
ridiculously low assessment it be
hooved the board to lend Its influence
towaid a more proper assessment. Mr.
Payne asserted that the board had at
one time wasted much energy and had
accomplished nothing In Ita agitation
townrd a reform and this, he thought,
would be tho result In the present in
stance. MR. LANSING'S VIEWS.
An opposite view was held by Mr,
Lansing. The earlier effort of the
board had borne fruit ns had the cam
paign for acquiring Nny Aug park.
Ho believed the board could not lend
Us Influence- toward a better purpose.
The present tax rate should not be In
creased, he contended, but the city was
greatly in need of funds and the way
to procure them was to bring about an
Increase In the assessments.
The asphalt repair and the tax as
sessment matters were referred to com
mittee, the former to the committee on
streets and the latter to the commit
tee on legislation and taxes.
Approval of the bill of Mr. Hall, of
New York city, amounting to $1,500 for
decorating the assembly room, was
withheld until tho claim of $300 held
by Conrad Schroeder against tho deco
rator has been paid.
Secretary Atherton suggested that In
lieu of the usual annual report, of tho
secretary, that the minutes of tho ten
monthly meetings of tho year and the
(inanclnl statement be published. The
matter was referred .to the publications
committee with power to act.
On motion of Mr. Lansing the thanks
of the boar-" 'ere voted Hon. AVIlllam
Connell and the family of the lato
Colonel J. A. Price for the portraits or
thoso gentlemen which have recently
been huns In the assembly room.
Eventually a portrait of each ex-presl-dent
will be poeseed by the board

NOVEL KIND OF A RAID.
Conducted Last Night by Alen of Street
Commissioner's Department Under
Direction of Foreman Fltzsimmons.
There have been raids and raids In
Scranton, raids of gumbllng houses
and other resorts, .but the "run In"
mndo bust night by Foreman E. A.
Fltzsimmons and a gang of men from
the street commissioner's department
wan quite tho most unique raid in a
long time. Fourteen negroes, drays,
trucks nnd other vehicles were gath
ered in from the highways and byways
and Inglorlously conducted to the open
space back of the city hall, where they
will remain until their owners make
the necessary payments of lucre to
Alderman Howe.
Four of the negroes were found loaf
ing on the West Side, four In Hreck
court, four In Raymond court, one on
Mllllin avenue nnd one on Vine street.
They were escorted cltyhnllward in
various ways. Tho strings from Ray
mond court and the West Side were
hauled In single files by street depart
ment horses and tho others were
pushed and pulled by hand.
One of the West Side's four-wheeled
loafers was a beer truck. It wasn't
full nor was It loaded with empties,
but it was run in Just the same. In
Raymond court three of the prisoners
of wood and iron were the property of
peddlers who offered to pay spot cash
for the release of their vehicles, but
the propositions were declined and the
owners will have to settle at an ad
vanced price before the magistrate of
the Seventeenth.
There Is a city ordinance against the
storage of wagons on public thorough
fares by day or by night and a pen
alty is attached to the said ordinance.
Street Commissioner Dunning will ac
complish two things by his crusade:
One will rid the streets of a nuisance,
and the other will provide a revenue
to bolster up the nil to diminutive ex
chequer of the street department. The
raiding will continue as long ns drivers
persist in disregarding the non-blockade
ordinance.
Foreman Fltzsimmons' force of hist
night consisted of Thomas Gllroy,
George Greaser, George Rosar, M,
Hutchinson, William Nealon and John
Moffatt.

Held n .llectinc in Y. .11. C. A. Par
lors l.nst Night.
There was an interesting meeting of
the city Christian Endeavor union in
V. M. C. A. parlors last night, nt which
a report was made concerning "Trol
ley Day." It was shown that the union
realized SIOVJO on the project. No ref
erence was made in the report or by
any of the members present to the op
position to the "Trolley Day" idea that
was shown by some Endeuvorera.
Reports were also heard from the
lookout, public meeting and Journal
committees, all of which were encour
aging and satisfactory. On account of
the pressure of other duties, Miss Delia
P. Evans resigned her position ns
superintendent of missions. The meet
ing was presided over by Rev. George
E. Guild, president of the city union.

BOARD OF CONTROL
ATTACKED IN COURT
John Jcrmyn Brings a Suit to Oust tbc
Board ol Twenty-one.
PRESENT MAKE-UP IS NOT LEOAL
It Is Claimed uy tho Relator That tho
Act Under Which tho Present Con
trollers Prenumo to Direct tho
School Districts' Allalrs Are Uncoil-Mitntlonnl--Tlils
Contention Wits
Held to lie Correct in a Similar
Case in Luzrrno County.
The quo warranto proceedings
ngninst the school board, which Tho
Tribune told about at length In a re
cent Issue, were yesterday duly Insti
tuted In Prothonotnry Pryors office by
Attorney I. 11. Hums.
District Attorney John It. Jones is
made plaintiff In the name of the com
monwealth nnd John Jermyn appears
in the capacity of relator. The petition
reads as follown:
And now, to wit, Nov. 13, 1SJ7, comes
John R. Jones, district attorney of the
county of La'ckawanna, and files this bis
suggestion, nnd gives the court to under
stand that ho Is Informed:
"First That tho city of Scranton Is a
city of tho third class and on tho lath
day of March, A. D. 1S77, by the ordin
ance of tho city council accepts tho act
of tho general ascmbly of May, the 23rd,
1S74, entitled, 'An Act dividing tho cities
Into three classes,' etc.
"Second Tho said net does Inter nlla,
provide that all of said cities of tho third
class shall constitute one school district
nnd all tho property shall bo tho com
mon property of said district, and tho
members of the board of school directors
shall havo the power to levy tho scihool
taxes and the sr.tne rights and powers In
relation to real and personal property,
as Is now by law conferred on tho school
directors of tho several districts of this
commonwealth, and they shall govern and
manage the public schools. In the manner
now provided by law, for the maintenance
of the system of education, by common
schools. It Is also further provided that
each ward of tho city shall elect one
school controller.
MANNER OF ELECTION.
"Third In pursuance of tho said act
and its supplements, school controllers
wero elected In tho city of Scranton in
tho year 1S78, to wit., one from each of the
twenty-ono wards of tho city of Scranton
and their successors have since that time
down to tho present assumed to be a
board of school controllers, anil they
levied taxes and managul the schools of
the said city of Scranton, and have in
nil respects assumed to perform tho func
tions of a regularly and legally constitut
ed board of school dliectors.
"Fourth That the defendants In tho
nbovo entitled ca'e arc now clJlming to
hold tho otllce of school controller of
each of the several wards of the city of
Scranton, and as a body are levying taxos
fpon the property taxablo within the city
of Scranton, and are contracting debts
and expending tho money of tho school
district, as your relator believes, with
out nny warrant of law.
"Fifth That your relator avers that
neither tho said act of May 23, 1874, or
any other statute before or since said
dato authorizes tho election of a school
controller from each of the seviral wards
of the city of Scranton or allows, or au
thorizes a board of school controllers
composed of one controller .from each
ward to perform any of the duties per
taining to the public schools of the city
of Scranton, either in the levying of
taxes, expenditure of money or In tho
caro and action of said controllers Is null
nnd void and without warrant of law for
the reason that the said acts of assembly
purporting to authorize such school con
trollers, and tho acts performed by them
nro wholly void nnd of no effect nnd that
the said controllers In the pretended ex
ercise of the duties performed by them
are usurping vpon the commonwealth
without authority or warrant of law and
are not entitled to hold such office of
school controller or to perfoun .any du
ties In relation to the care of the schools.

"Whereupon your relator, tho said John
It, Jones, district attorney of tho county
of lackawarnn, siiRgests that this court
do award a writ of quo warranto directed
to tho sheriff of Lickawanna county,
commanding him to summon said defend
ants so that thry may bo nnd nppeir
before tho said court on a day certain
and show by what authority they rxer
clso tho olllco of school controller of tho
city of Scranton, nnd why thoy should
not bo ousted therefrom."
The writ was allowed as prayed for
nnd made returnable Nov. 29, nt 9 a.
m. Unless the local court sees fit to
dissent from the finding of Judge Ilcn
nett In similar proceedings nffectlng
tho Plttston school district, the pres
ent make-up of the Scranton school
board will bo declared Illegal and a
board of six members, elected nt large,
substituted for the, twenty-one.
In any case there will be n board of
six ticket In the field nt the spring
election. The matter will not be defi
nitely settled for some time to come,
in all likelihood, ns a contest before
the Supremo court will unquestionably
follow when the board that Is success
ful before the local courts attempts to
take possession of tho district's af
fairs. In a day or two, Mr, Burns says, a
suit will be Instituted to compel the
board of control to make the tax levy
on the county assessment, Instead of
the city assessment, ns at present.
"We have some other reforms under
way," said Mr. Burns with his mean
ingful smile, "but we don't want to

legislators nil at once. Wo are like
