Police Will Aid Mr. Dunning in Get
ting Clean Gutters.
The Tribune's hint to Street Com
missioner Dunning whereby was point
ed out a remedy against slush and
Impassable crossings, has "been heeded.
Yesterday Mr. Dunning1 conferred with
Hayor Bailey and Chief of Police Rob
llns with tho result that this mornlns:
police patrolmen will make a system
atic canvas of the business district and
notify tenants or property owners to
clear their gutters and sidewalks of
slush and Ice forthwith.
Those who decline to comply with the
notification will be arrested on war
rants sworn out by the street commis
sioner and served by the police. Th'ey
will be held for the payment of costs
and will be fined unless they Immedi
ately obey tho city's mandate.
Provision for clean cutters is as
clearly and amply provided In the city
ordinances as is that relating to snow
and sidewalks. Commissioners Klrst
and Kinsley had to enforce It through
the aid of the police and Jlr. Dunning
Is going to follow suit as suggested to
him in yesterday's Tribune.
TO PREVENT WHEELS SLIDINQ.
Chief Hickoy Experiments with the
Century's Wagon.
Chief P. J. Hickev. of tho fire de
partment, has devised a little scheme
to prevent the sliding of hose wagons
on ley roads. Much trouble has been
experienced of late from this cause.
The chief took the Century's wagon to
a blacksmith shop Thursday night and
had a thin strip of iron fastened
around the tiro of each wheel.
In the test which followed the Idea
proved to be wholly successful. It Is
likely that every vehicle In the depart
ment will be similarly protected.

A meotlntr of tho Domocratlo city

In addition to this tho meeting rati

CASH CARRYING SYSTEM.
It Has Been Installed Id Jonas Long's
Son's Store Manner In Which
It Is Operated.
If you want to blow your money go
to Jonas Long's Son's department
store. Slr.co yesterday morning this
thing can be done there lltcrullv as
well as figuratively. ' The pneumatic
cash carrier system, which Lamson He
Co., of Hoston. have been putting In
place since the store building was
fltilsh'cd lut.erlorally was put in opera
tion for the first tlmn yesterday. It
proved a great success In every way.
The brass pipes, which everyone has
noticed about the Btore presuming
that everyone has been In the store
are the conduits for the carrier sys
tem. There Is over o, mile of this plp-lng-nearly
6,000 feet, the company's
representative tays and It extends to
every department 01 um c ""
building.
All tle pipes center nt an oillce on
the second floor, spacious enough to
allow twelve operators to work at one
time. Ordinary three or four "cash
iers" can handle all the business but
in im nf n. rimh the force must be
correspondingly Increased.
Two pipes connect this cashier's of
fice with each department of each iloor
of the store. One is a receiving plpo
and th-i other a sending pipe. The
pipes are 2i Inches In diameter. Tho
carriages are 2 Inches by ." Inches,
cylindrical in form and having a
diKirter-lnch cap and rim of felt on
either end that makes them fit snug
In the pipe. Tho carrlaga cylinder is
made in two parts, one fitting tightly
Into the other. To open it me onus
me grasped In clthar h'anl and turned
In opposite directions. This discloses
the opening In which the money, or
papers is to be carried. Turning: the
ends back again the opening is closed.
When a purchaser hands over money
to a clerk, he makes out a check and
stub which tell tho department the
salesman, the goods, the price and the
amount of monev. This with the
money is placed In one of these cartridge-like
carriers and Inserted in the
pipe. Tho suction catches It up and
rushing It through the brass conduits
deposits it in a receptable just under
th exit at the oillce end of the nine.
The cashier opens the carriage, makes
the charge stamps the slip, tears ore
rind files the stub, and returning the
change and slip in tho carriage drops
It Into the return pine and lo, before
the customer has had time to pick up
her gloves her change is back.
In the presence of a Tribune repor
ter yesterday afternoon an unprepared
for test was made and although the
test carrlaga had to take Its turn with
the regular ones and was possibly de
layed some tlmo on this account, only
twenty seconds elapsed from the time
the carriage wos sent until It return
ed. It. In suction and not propulsion, as
many might suppose, that operates the
system. Tho draft is supuilcd by an
elghtsen-lnch galvanized Iron pipe con
nected in the engine room with a big
suction pump, run by an electric mo
tor. There are no valves or gates at
either end of the pipes. The boll
shaped mouth Is constantly open and
the suction force 13 continually on.
This serves to help In the ventilation
of the store.

JEALOUS NEGRO'S
DESPERATE DEED
Man with Whom She Lived lilt Her with
a Hatchet.
SUB IS SERIOUSLY INJURED
Home In Which tho Crlmo ll'm Com
mlttcd Is Located nt 008 Jackson
StrootWomnn Is Mhito and Has
Hcon Consorting with Him for Up
wards of n i'cnr--Sho Formerly
Lived In Plymouth nnd Carao Hero
Klght Years Ago.
Mrs. Mary Roberts, a white woman,
lies at the West Side hospital in a
semi-conscious state, suffering from
wounds Inflicted upon her early yes
terday morning by the man with whom
she consorted. His name Is George
Matthews, and he is colored. The In
jured woman may and may not die,
her recovery depending upon circum
stances so far as complications are
concerned. Her murderously inclined
assailant has not yet been apprehend
ed. The house in which the almost mur
der was committed is a three story
tenement at 90S Jackson street, owned
by the Cohen estate, and occupied by
a motley gang of Italians, HunB and
Poles. The characters of tho probable
tragedy resided In the basement port,
consisting of four small rooms. The
place was once used for shop pur
poses and a few board partitions
changed it into living rooms.
George Matthews and his consort,
Mrs. Roberta, alios Mary Jane Morris,
alias May Matthews, have occupied the
squalid home but a little over two
months. This period of time, accord
ing to neighbors, has been a pande
monium. Carousals by night and fight
ing by day. Matthews was not an
extremely bad man. He was employed
as a driver by Carluccl Bros, and his
pay was always at the command of
tho woman. But a disturber In the
person of Charles Jackson, also colored,
but not so much so as Matthews, ap
peared several months ago upon the
scene and since that time trouble has
brewed. It reached the boiling point
about G o'clock yesterday morning.
CAUSE OF THE TROUBLE.
It seems that Matthews was at Dal-
ton for several days before Christmas
but returned to celebrate. Jackson was
at this time boarding with the couple,
and though Matthews did not want
him around, he staid. Fights between
the woman and Matthews were fre
quent up to Thursday night, when
she went across the street and told
a Mrs. Myers that Matthews was go
ing to kill her. She, however, went
back home and It Is supposed the reg
ular debauch was begun.
When seen by a Tribune reporter at
the hosnltal last night, Mrs. Roberts
declared that everything was all right
until about live o'clock yesterday
morning, when he awoke her and an
nounced his Intention of "fixing" her.
She says she got down on her knees
and begged for mercy. He only seized
11 small hatchet from the sink nearby
and dealt her a blow. She still cried
for mercy. He struck her several
times after that and she lost conscious
ness. Just before this happened, according
to the story of both Jackson and the
woman, Jackson had left the house.
He did not return until about seven
o'clock and found her lying in a pool
of 'her own blood. Matthews had dis
appeared. Jackson aroused her and
put her on the miserable cot, which did
duty as a bed, and then notified the
neighbors and police.
DOCTOR SUMMONED.
Some one summoned Dr. J. P. Walk
er, of Broadway, and he applied band
ages and gave her some stimulants.
A few minutes later, or about eight
o'clock, Patrolman Gurrell and a cab
from Price's livery nnd the Injured wo
man was taken to the West Side hos
pital. Here the staff discovered that she
was not dangerously wounded. Her
wounds consisted of several jagged
cuts about the back and top of tho
head from which the blood had freely
flowed. Matthews struck her with the
head Instead of the blade of the hat
chet, or tho tale would be of a different
telling. 'It is not thought that the
skull Is fractured, as she rallied al
most too easily for that, but another
Investigation will be made this morn
ing when she has better recovered from
the shock,
Jackson, the boarder, told all lie
knew to Chief Robllng, Lieutenant
Davis, and Detective Molr, and steps
were Immediately taken to capture
Matthews. Ho is about 45 years ot age,
a coal black negro nnd a Virginian by
birth. His mother's name Is Edith
Ford, and Is supposed to live at Pou
plln City, Va., as he often wrote her
there.
The couple have been In trouble be
fore. The first time March 1, 1S97, on
a charge of keeping a disorderly house,
while residing in Kelly's patch, on
Scranton street. Again September
17, 1897, while still .residing nt the same
place. The charge was harboring a
ten-year-old white girl. Matthews
promised at this time to quit the wo
man and lead a different life, as the
docket record reads. It was just fol
lowing tills arrest that Jackson com
menced to board with them and short
ly afterward the green-eyed monster,
Jealousy, seized Matthews.
CAME HERE FROM PLYMOUTH.
The Injured woman is fairly good
looking and was once respectable, re
siding on Swetland street, wnere sne
came from Plymouth anout eigni
years ago. She, however, became dls
solute and refused to resldo with a
married daughter, who has since moved
away from Scranton. She has consort
ed with Matthews for over a year.
It was rumored that Matthews had
boarded a Bloomsburg division coal
train and wob heading for Virginia.
The following letter from his mother
wtiS' found among his effects.
Pouplln, City, Va Dec. 6, 1837.
My Dear Son
Your letter to hand a day ago nnd I
was glad to hear from you and your wife.
Glad to hear that you all was well and
doing well nnd hope when these few lines
reach you It may nnd you well and en
joying good health. I am afraid to send
you that thing I told you I had because
I am afraid I will get caught up with it.
I would rather you would come and get
It yourself and carry it with you back
home. I am afraid to trubt It with the
mall people, they ore so curious those
dayB.
You ought to como and see me and
then you could carry It back with you
and If It Is bo you can bring your wife
with you bring her. I would llko to see
her very much. 8q I will come to a close
by saying good ble.
From your mother,
Edith Ford.
LARKIN FOUND DEAD.
Coroner's Jury Will Try nnd Ascer
tain tho Cnnic.
Tho dead body of a man, who was
afterward Identified ob Thomas Larkln,
of Dcllcvue, was found on Luzcrno
street, near tho Oxford culm dump
shortly after 0 o'clock yesterday morn
ing by pedestrians.
Bruises on the head led to the idea
that Larkln died from foul play. Tho
coroner's Inquest last evening, how
ever, did not discover any Injury which
would cause death. Larkln was well
known in the Bcllevue part of the city,
whero ho lived. Ho was a middle-aged
man and a bachelor. His habits woro
reckless, and he drank considerably.
His sudden death was, according to
Coroner S. P. Longstrcet, tho result
of theso habits. Larkln's head was cut
In two places, but the Skull had not
been Injured. His stomach nnd other
organs gave evldenco of alcoholism.
The Jury appointed to act on .the
case, W. A. Raub, W. L. Clifford, C.
II. Derby, John Raub. Patrick Cuslck
and A. E. Vorhels, will meet next Fri
day night in the arbitration room at
the court house.
JAMES J. LYNCH DEAD.
Prominent Olypbnnt Merchant and
Capitalist Passes Away at 12.10
O'clock This Morning.
James J. Lynch, whoso serious ill
ness of pneumonia wns noted in yes
terday's Tribune, died this morning at
12.10 o'clock at his home In Olyphant.
Ho caught a heavy cold during tho
holidays and it rapidly developed into
acute pneumonia. Before many days
his condition wns serious and for the
past flvo days It has been alarming.
Thursday night his life was despaired
of, but ho rallied towards morning
and yesterday was so much Improved
that hopes for his recovery were enter
tained. With the face of night, how
ever, his condition changed for the
worse and ut 11 o'clock his attending
physicians notified the family that tho
end was at hand. Ho passed away
peacefully, a short time after midnight.
No man of the upper valley was more
prominent or held In higher esteem
than Mr. Lynch. For thirty-nine years
he lived In the borough of Blakely and
for a quarter of a century was one of
the leading merchants of Olyphant.
He was the president of the Olyphant
Water company; president of the Price
burg Electric Light compnny, nnd a
stockholder In various industrial en
terprises in his home town and this
city, the Scranton Packing company
and the Scranton Steam Heat and
Power company being among the
Scranton commercial organizations In
which ho was Interested.
An Instance of the respect and con
fidence In which his community held
him Is found In the fuct that he has
served for twenty-three successive
years as a member of the Blakely poor
board.
Mr. Lynch was the first Jury com
missioner of Lackawanna county, and
has frenuently since been, mentioned
for county olilees, hut has declined to

When James Rcllly, the prisoner In
the county Jail, took unto himself
Laura V. Leonard as a wlfo In thejnll
last Tuesday ho also found in her an
angel of mercy. Since the marriage
tho woman has expended every effort
to havo her. husband released from
Jail.
Yesterday she was seen with her 18-months-old
child, from a former hus
band, in her arms tramping about
through the slush of the streets In
search of persons whom she was told
might lend their influence to her pur
pose. Rcllly, it will be remembered, broke
Into and robbed George Felton's cut
lery store, at tho corner of Penn ave
nue and Spruce street, last Novem
ber. Ho was enptured at Nantlcoke
with a man named Bead and both
were committed to Jail after a hearing.
Three other men were arrested and
are now in imprisonment, but, it Is
said, Rcllly and Bead, sooner than have
tho Innocent suffer, confessed to the
burglary.
But Rcllly Is now a married man.
He has Bomeone else In tho world to
look out for besides himself, and Jail
Is a very bad place to supply a fam
ily larder from. So with the changed
conditions, Rcllly has changed. He
wants to settle down and live an honest
life with his wife.
But the crime at his door Is knock
ing. His fate rests with the grand
Jury, which meets today. Mrs. Rellly
had been Informed that her husband's
case would come up before the grand
Jury yesterday and during all the day
she hung about the court house, wait
ing for the appearance of the prose
cutors.
Finally, when the Jury adjourned
and tho burglary case was still un
heard, Mrs. Rellly, with her child,
started to look up Mr. Felton and have
him neglect to appear against her hus
