ANNUAL MEETING OF
ST. JOSEPH'S SOCIETY
It Was Held Yesterday Afternoon In
College Hall.
WILL HAVE A PERMANENT HOME
Decision Ilcncliotl to Erect n New
935,000 llnlldlnu' on tlio Plot
Given by tlio Lnto John It. Smith
in North I'nrk-.It Will Contain
'I'hroo Htorlcs nnd Ilnscmrnt of.
Ilrlck nntt Stono--C10,000 on
Hand nnd Enough More May He
Secured to Award the Contract in
tlio Spring.
Tho near future will witness an nddl
tlon to 'the present number of new
buildings conducted by the city's char
itable organizations. Tills was decided
nt yesterday's annual meeting and elec
tion of St. Joseph's society for the Pre
vention of Cruelty to Children and
Aged Persona. The society Is best
known In Its management ot St. Jo
seph's foundling homo on Jefferson
avenue.
At yesterday's meeting, which was
held In College hall, the plans of Ar
chitect Perclvnl J. Morris for a new
building were finally accepted and the
decision reached to erect the structure
nt an early day. The land Is already
possessed by the society, It having been
given by the late John B. Smith, of
Dunmore. The plot Is located near the
new Home for the Friendless In tho
North Park district.
The building Is to cost about $35,000,
Including the heating and ventilating
system. While not of largo proportions
the building is to contain some of the
best and most complete conveniences
and sanitary features known to present-day
architectural and building sci
ence. It Is to be of yellow brick with
stone trimmings and will consist of
three stories and a basement. The so
ciety has nearly $10,000 la Its treasury
and will receive much of the neces
sary balance from collections and sub
scriptions In this Catholic diocese, the
society being a diocesan Institution. It
Is expected that enough money will be
secured In the near future to warrant
awarding the contract during the com
ing spring.

FUNERAL OF MRS. B0UT0N.
Was Held Yesterday nt Her Lnto
Home nn Miidison Avenue
Tho funeral of Mrs. Sarah C. Bouton
was held at her late residence on Madi
son avenue yesterday. Many friends
who had known and loved the gentle
lady, whose beautiful life had so se
renely closed, crowded the rooms.
As one of the oldest residents of tho
city, Mis. Bouton's death recalled many
details of its early history. She was
one who lived quietly, aside from the
world that only those who were closest
to her realized the place she held In
many hearts. Possessed of a mind of
rare culture and many graces of per
sonality, she was one of the older gen
eration distinct In typo and too sel
dom found.
Rev. Dr. Logan, assisted by Rev. Dr.
James McLeod and Rev, J. L. Alrlch,
officiated at the service. Dr. Logan
spoke with emotion of the deceased,
mentioning In the course of his re
marks that It was Just past thirty
years since she brought her letter to
his church, of which she became a
member. A quartette composed of the
Misses Rose, Messrs Newton Croft and
Fritz Prank sang favorite hymns.
The Interment will be made this
morning at Tunkhannock. The pall
bearers will be T. F. Penman, Louis
Smithing, II. C. MacKenzle and Henry
Bourns.
ACCUSED OF BUKQLARY.
Dennis Runno Arrested for the
Mnnsic Depot Aflnlr.
The mysterious and successive burg
laries at the Mooslc and Steel works
f i eight depots of the Delaware nnd
Hudson company are, it Is said, about
to Ik cleared up. Yesterday Dennis
Ruane, a young man, was arrested on
a warrant swornt out by Detective
Crlppen, ot the Delaware and Hudson
company, charging Ruane with the
burglary of the Mooslc depot on the
night of September 10, 1897.
In that instance tho stolen goods
consisted of 21 pairs of shoes, 1 suit of
clothes and sundry other articles. De
tective Crlppen has been at work on
the case Blnce. Ruane and two other
young men were suspected nnd yes
terday the warrant for Ruane was
placed In tho hands of Patrolmen Mc
Mullen and Neuls.
The young man was located In Horn's
place, on Franklin avenue, and was
placed under arreBt. He was taken to
the central police station, where he re
mained over last night. He makes no
confession, but pleads not guilty.
The hearlns In the case will be thla
morning, Ruanc's home Is In Belle
vuc. He is a middle-aged man. , v
THE PATIENT RETURNED.
Discharged Hospital Subject In Need
ot" I'urllicr Relief.
Tho fate which follows poor Anthony
Daccy will today see him In the Hlll
sldo Home, a man broken in health and
mind, wrecked nnd helpless for all
time. He Is a foreigner, tho worso for
him, for his friendliness Is the moro
marked and pathetic. Ho Is alone In
a big country, nnd he can't even think
of the friends over the ocean.
Yesterday, after a few days' aimless
wandering about; he lay down to sleep
In an old shanty at tho North mill of
tho Lackawanna Iron and Steel com
pany. Hero he was discovered and
was taken In tho police patrol to the
central station. His condition nlnrmed
tho ofllcers. They at first thought him
to bo a tramp. Then a bare spot on
his head was noticed, showing a deep
ridge In the bone. His face was thin,
tho flesh pale, and he could not talk.
In this condition Daccy was taken to
the Lackawanna hospital, where tho
resident physician was summoned nnd,
after looking nt Dacey, said: "Why,
this fellow was discharged from the
hospital only last Saturday."
It was Anthony Dacey, who one Sat
urday night fell down a flight of steps
at the Coyne House nnd sustained a
fractured skull. For six weeks ho lay
at the hospital. At first he could not
tell his name. Then, after 78 hours'
unconsciousness, he said "Anthony
Dacey," and tho patient in the next
bed heard It.
Finally he recovered and was dis
charged Saturday. Ills movements
after leaving the hospital until he was
found yesterday are unknown. He
will bo sent to the homo today.
COAL TRADE FIGURES.
Years of 1896 nnd 1897 Were Marked by
a Decline In the Output In
crease Is to Come.
There aro many reasons for believing
that the Improvement which has com
menced In the condition o the anthra
cite coal trade will continue steadily.
The coming year offers, In the growth
of prosperity in commerce and manu
facturing, nn opportunity for tho an
thracite trade to resume Its normal rato
of growth. Both 1696 and 1S97 were
years of a declining output, but look
ing over the course of the trade since
its beginning, It may be seen that tho
same thing has occurred at more- or
less regular Intervals, and Invariably
been followed by a year In which .the
output increased In the ratio which has
been followed prior to the decline. Tho
following figures on this point will be
of Interest:
Shipments. Increase

change by years, Is even more inter
esting: Per Cent.

1S91 Decrease 3 9
1S93 Increase .... 12.3
1W)G Decrcaso .... 7.1
1697 " .... 4.3
It Is seen from this that, taking the
Industry in five year periods, there has
been a comparatively regular rate of
progression, irrespective of the results
of each year. If this general ratio
were continued, It would point to a pro
duction of considerably over fifty mil
lion tons three years hence, and this is
substantiated in the second .table,
which shows that in eighteen years
there have been six In which the output
decreased, and twelve when it In
creased, The average decrease was
6.0 per cent, from the previous year,
and the average Increase 6.9 per cent.
It Is not logical to suppose that a
rate of progression which has been
continued for so long a period will sud
denly change. It Is, on the contrary,
reasonable to assume Its continuance
in either an Increasing or decreasing
ratio. If this average of Increase bo
applied, the output in 1S9S would be
calculated nt about forty-four million
tons. Applying It further for 1899 and
1900, would show an output In the lat
ter year, as already" stated, of over fifty
million tons.

COMPULSORY NON-SUIT REFUSED

Trnctlon Compnny Called Upon to
Defend n $2,000 Dnniago Suit.
Verdict Against Tn)lor Borough.
Judgo Gunster refused tho motion for
a non-suit In the case of O'Malley
ngalnst the Trnctlon company, yester
day morning, and directed tho com
pnny to proceed with Its defense. Tho
entire day was taken up with the hear
ing of the defendants' Bide and a good
part will, It Is probable, be likewise
consumed.
The claim of tho defense Is that
Motorman LIsk, who was In charge of
tho enr which ran down O'Malley, saw
the asphalt men on the road when hs
was several hundred feet away from
them and as he approached where they
were working, gave the usual alarm by
Wnglng fhe bell. All the men got out
of the way, but when the car was a
few feet from where the repairing was
going on O'Malley walked directly In
front of the car and bent over as If to
proceed with his work. The motorman
i evorsed tho power, but the car could
net bo stopped In time to prevent It
from hitting him. It was also held
that the car was proceeding nt a slow
pace at the time, with the power 'turned
oft ond moving only by the gravity of
tho slight decline at that point.
VERDICT FOR PLAINTIFF.
In the case of the McCoy Glass com
pany agatnst the Lackawanna Hard
ware company, tho Jury yesterday
brought In a verdict for the plaintiff
in the sum of $525.75. Judge Love di
rected that the Jury could not allow
more than the price of one car of glass
as an offset. The Jury allowed this
much, thereby making It a drawn
battle.
Another Traction company case was
called before Judge Love, when the
McCoy case had been disposed of.
Uriah McDonnell Is the plaintiff. He
claims $3,000 damages from the Trac
tion company for disturbing the grade
of the street In front of his property
on North Main avenue, near the Mar
vine crossing, and causing, as he al
leges, tho water from the street to run
In on his yard.
The company alleges that no dam
age has resulted and that none are
likely to result. At the request of
Major Everett Warren and Hon. C. P.
O'Malley, of counsel for the defend
ant, the Jury and Judge Love went to
the scene In a special car to view the
ground. When they returned Mr.
Soper began the presentation of. tes
timony for the plaintiff. The case was
on at adjournment.
Tho drawing of a Jury was enlivened
a little by the action of Juror W.
Haydn Evans In requesting to be ex
cused because he was prejudiced
against P. W. Gallagher, the special
agent of the company. He had had
some dealings with tho company
through Mr. Gallagher and was "best
ed" and he didn't like the methods the
special agent pursued. Mr. Gallagher
blushed at the unintended compliment
and the juior was excused. s
DR. PORTEUS WON.
In the case of Dr. J. S. Porteus
against the borough of Taylor, a ver
dict for $330 damages In favor of the
plaintiff was directed to enter. This
Is one of tile cases growing out of the
changing of the grade of Main street,
at tho time the street car tracks were
laid.
Slow progress Is being made with this
week's common pleas list, owing to the
fa ft that Major Warren, Judge Jes
sup and O'Brien & Kelly, who became
tied up In long-winded cases, are In
terested In twenty-one of the thirty
five cases that are open for trial. By
reason of this, Judge Archbald, who
Is In the main court room, Is having a
veritable vacation.

TWO SUDDEN DEATHS.
Women Diet nt Urnnltfnt and Man
Pound Pcnd in lied.
There were two sudden deaths in
Dunmore yesterday. Mrs. Bridget
Cummlngs, of 324 Butler street, died
while seated nt the breakfast table,
and Peter Knapp, ono of the pioneer
residents of the borough, was found
dead In bed.
Mrs. Cummlngs lived with her son,
Patrick. For a long time she had been
mulcted with heart disease, but her
condition was not considered alarm
ing. At 9 o'clock, while eating break
fast, her head fell forward and her
arms dropped to her lap. The family
hurried to relieve her, but she was
dead before she could be laid on a bed.
She was 63 years old.
Peter Knapp lived nt No. 20 Blakely
street. He was 66 years old, had lived
In Dunmore nearly half a century and
was engaged In tho hotel business
there for many years. He was accus
tomed to sleep late mornings and when
he did not arise yesterday no alarm
was occasioned by the circumstances.
His wife found him dead when Bhe
attempted to awaken him at noon. He
had not been dead long, as the body
was warm. Tuesday night, when he
retired, he complained of a slight In
disposition, but there was nothing in
his appearance or condition to lndl-
