PIIVSICIAN HAD TO DO SUMMONED
JiuIro Archbnld Wnltod In Hopes
That tho Junior Might Hccover nnil
tit Noon News Is ISrotlght That Ho
Is Itonily to Go Into tho II0X--D0-fonso
Still Trying to Discredit
tho Commonwealth's Testimony.
Other Doings in Crlininnl Cotitt.
When court opened yesterday morn
ing it was reported that one of tho
Jill 01a in the Olchefskl case, Edward
Silicic, stonemason, of South Abington,
wus seriously 111 In tho Jury room nnd
unable to come into court. He became
sick durlnir tho evening and at mid
night his condition was so had that Dr.
J. E. O'Brien was summoned to attend
him.
Judge Archbnld wns loth to continue
the case after po much labor and time
had been expended on it, nnd decided
to nut it over for a while In the hope
that the sick Juror might recover. This
proved to be a wise course for nt noon
time Mr. Slilck communicated to court
that he was much Improved and would
be ready to go Into the box In I he af
ternoon. At 1.30 o'clock the jury came In and
the hearing of the testimony for the
defense was resumed.
Daniel Langownkl, the Polish editor
who was on the stand at adjournment
tho previous afternoon, continued his
talo of how ho happened to be pass
ing Mlchalowsky's saloon at 12.15
o'clock on the night of the px plosion
and seeing a light within, thought to
get a beer, and going to tho door to
try it discovered a utrong odor of gas.
lie meant to tell Mlchalowsky about
it but he found that the Mlchalowsky
family was in bed and decided not to
disturb them, believing that his discov
ery wus hardly of enough consequence
to warrant arouslnsr th'eni. He also
testified to having seen the Olchefskis
immediately after tho explosion and
that they were only partially dressed.
The furniture was in good condition
when It was being carried out nnd he
was positive that the chair bottoms
wore then intact.
Mrs. Anna Loshnk, who lives on Elm
street near Olchefskl's barn, testified
to having seen Olchefskl on frequent
occasions carrying bass of feed nnd
the like from ills store to the barn
luti at niKht.
ROOF WAS LEAKY.
Mrs. Annie Pancofskl, in the rear of
whose home the Olchefskl barn is lo
cated, corroborated Mrs. Loshak, the
preceding witness, and testified fur
ther that the roof of the barn was in
a leaky condition, which latter fact
was elicited to show Olchefskl's reason
for keeping his feed, oats, etc., in the
stoie.
Constant 'Vlstofskl, who helped to
carry out the Olchefskl furniture, tes
tified that nlnlr bottoms were not cut.
On cross-examination he admitted that
the chairs he carried out misht have
been from the Mlchalowsky apart
ments. Mrs. Tuophelia Deckert testified that
she saw Mrs. Olchefskl and her two
children soon after tho explosion nnd
they were only partly diessed.
Mr. Jones brought out on cross-examination
that Mrs. Deckert had loan
ed the Olchefskl's $500 and took a $1,000
insurance policy as security.
Frank Pancofskl, owner of the barn
in which Olchefskl kept his horses, al
so testified to having seen Olchefskl
carrying: feed from the store to the
barn ar.d that the roof of the barn was
in a dilapidated condition.
Voleskl Valentine, of -411 X-'enn ave
nue, testified that he was at Mrs.
Niton's house on the morning follow
ing the fire and saw Mrs. Nltch tear
open the bottom of Olchefskl's chairs
which had been pi iced In her yard,
and pull tho oakum padding out of
them.
A. Lopatyner, nnothcr Polish editor,
swore that he was coming here from
a fishing expedition In company with
Ilov. Frank Hodnr about 12 o'clock at
night, and In driving past the corner
of Plttston avenue and Elm street de
tected a peculiar odor.
Adam Yearlng, a barber, testified to
having shaved Olchefskl on the morn
ing after the fire. His half, whiskers
and eyebrows were badly singed and
there was a bruise on his head and
scratches on his face.
It looks now as if there was little
possibility of the case getting to the
Jury before tomorrow at noon. The de
fense has a large number of witnesses
j.et to be heard nnd the commonwealth
will present considerable testimony In
rebuttal.
AFTER TWO .YEARS.
After nearly two years of waiting,
the case in which II. M. Roles, acting
for tho Moosie Powder company,
chnrged P. A. Carroll, of Carbondale,
with cheating by false pretenses, was
yesterday taken up before Judge Gun
ster. Feb. 15, 1S9G. the Rushbrook mill,
of the Moosie Powder company, sit
uated at Jermyn, blew up, nnd among
other damage that resulted was the
breaking of many windows In Carbon
dale. A week after the explosion P.
A. Carroll, a Carbondale merchant,
submitted a claim of $75 to the com
pany for a large plate gloss window
In hit store, which, he claimed, had
been shattered by the explosion. The
company Bent William Bell, an em
ploye, to ndlUSt the claim, nnil jr.
was ngreed upon as the basis of set
iiemeni. -mc company paid over
$15 and took Mr. Carroll's receipt
the
for
11.
Some few weeks later the company
learned that the window In question
had been broken In January, a month
previous to the explosion, nnd that a
furmer named Reldenberg, who it was
that broke the window, had paid Mr.
Carroll $65 for a new window. Forth
with a warrant was issued for Mr. Car
roll's arrest, charging him with cheat
ing by false pretenses. He gave ball
to answer at court, and ever since that
time the accusation has been hanging
over him.
When the cao enme to trial yes
terdav Mr. Carroll wasi nrniiittn.i ,..ni,-
out oven having to put in u defense
iur. ueii, wno went to Carbondale
to
make the adjustment. ndmlit.ii nn
tho
stand that he knew Carroll knew
ho
knew that tho window lm,i
been
previously damaged by Farmer Blden
uerK.
VERDICT NOT GUILTY.
Messrs. Kelly and O'Neill, attorney
for tho defense, forthwith moved for 1
verdict of Stot guilty, and court unhes
uuungiy grained 11. 'inis very t
was the defense which Mr. Carroll
tiling
1 WBH
to offer.
At the fall term of criminal court
Hlmon Itlce was found milltv liv n In
ury
of assault and battery upon O. J.NIch
ols. The testimony, even .that of tho
prosecution, showed beyond all ques
tion that at' tho very most Mr. Rico
was only guilty of defending himself,
but, contrary to nil expectations, tho
Jury brought him In guilty.
Judge Archbnld Imposed a nominal
sentence of $5 fine, but It had scarcely
been entered ' of record when ho re
pealed the sentence, set aside tho ver
dict and ordered a rule for a new trial
to enter. At argument court, when
.the rule camo up, Judge Archbnld did
not wait for any discussion, hut
promptly ordered a new trial, accom
panying the order with the comment,
"I am convinced that the Jury con
sulted Its prejudices rather than Its
Judgment in this case."
Yesterday the re-trial took place be
fore Judge Archbald, while ho was
waiting for tho sick Ochelskl Juror to
recover, and a verdict was rendered
acquitting Mr. Rico nnd placing tho
costs on tho prosecutor.
Interest, during tho morning, cen
tered In court room No. 2, where Mrs.
Emma Stephens was l.;lng prosecuted
by Mrs. AV. R. Duggan, agent of tho
Hoard of Associated Charities for
keeping a house of ill repute on Frank
lin avenue. The defendant on the pre
vious day feigned illness when a dep
uty sheriff went nfter her with a
capias. A doctor was sent down by
order of court to examine her and
found her in bed with her shoes on.
This being reported back to court, it
was ordered that she be taken into
custody, and at G o'clock p. m. she was
escorted to the county Jail, that she
might be on hnnd In the morning when
wanted.
STRONG TESTIMONY.
Among the parties who testified to
the bad character of the house were
Kitty Donahoe, the young girl who Is
prosecuting John Meshler. In her state
ment that her ruin was' accomplished
In Mrs. Stephens' house, she was cor
roborated by Meshler, who admitted
that ho took the girl there, and nlso
that he had gone there with a number
of other young girls,
Mrs. Stephens' defense wag that Rhe
is a poor widow, unacquainted with the
ways of the world, and if persons of
immoral character imposed on her she
should not be held accountable for it.
After she had testified that she eked
out a living at dressmaking and keep
ing a few lodgers, the prosecution
showed that she was paying $31.50 a
month rent. There were some lively
exchanges between Mr. Scragg and
Messis. Martin & Vldaver, attorneys,
respectively for the prosecution and de
fense. The Jury went out at noon time
but up to adjournment had not reached
a verdict.
Maggie Thomas, one of the accused
shoplifters, was called to answer for
stealing from Goldsmith's bazaar, but
the evidence against her was not suf
ficient to warrant conviction and a
verdict of not guilty was taken.
At ndjournlng time, In court room
No. 2, Mary Murphy, a 11-year-old girl,
was on trial for larceny by bailee. The
prosecutrix Is Mrs. Winifred Dough
erty, the Wyoming avenue milliner, by
whom the girl was employed. Last
fall Mrs. Dougherty gave the girl $190
to deposit In the bank. When the
book was returned It was found that
she had been credited with only $179.
The girl denies having taken the $11,
but Mrs. Dougherty is positive she did
because the money was carefully
counted by both Mrs. Dougherty nnd
one of her clerks and securely tied It
In a bag before giving it to the mes
senger girl.
THEY TIED URSANTCIL
Alexander Rums and Peter Burns
weie returned not guilty of assaulting
Frank Ursantch, but they had to com
bine with the prosecutor in paying tho
costs. The defense was that they only
took Ursantch out of bed and tied him
with a clothesline to prevent him from
beating his wife.
Samuel Wruble was declared not
guilty of stealing a monkey-wrench
from II. E. Van Kleeck. The costs
were divided between the parties.
A verdict of not guilty was taken
in the case in which Detective Martin
Crlppen charged David Y. Jones with
perjury. The county paid the costs.
Not guilty; county pay the costs, was
also the verdict In the case of Wil
liam Weyandt, chnrged by Mrs. Hattle
Cox with defrauding a boarding house.
It was shown by the defense that no
attempt had ever been made to collect
the money.
Maggie Homan. charged by Bridget
Ruane with assault and battery, was
declared not guilty, nnd the costs were
equally divided between prosecutilx
and defendant.
Mary Tolten was directed to pay the
costs in tho case In which she charged
Robert Fraunfelter with assault and
battery.
Alderman John F. Atkinson, of Car
bondale, charred with extortion by
Moses Seldmnn, was declared not
guilty, the prosecutor failing to ap
pear. Patrick Batista, a 9-year-old son of
Sunny Italy, was acquitted of tho
charge of burglarizing Frank Cullar's
candy store, In Dunmore. The little
burglar was accused of stealing twenty-five
pounds of candy, two hundred
cignrs and five boxes of gum. He
does not weigh ns much as the booty
he was accused of carrying away. The
case was laushed out of court.

As Indicated In Tho Trlbuno a week
aso, Mayor Bailey has signed the "Wy
oming avenuo extension ordinance. Ho
afllxed his signature to the measure
yesterday.
"No opposition to tho extension,
said Mayor Bailey to a Tribune re
porter yesterday, "has been presented
to me. Yes, tho nbsencc of any oppo
sition lnlluenced me as I learned that
all the affected property owners want
ed the avenue extended nnd many oth
ers wrote or verbally expressed to mo
their wish that I would favor the or
dinance. "Tho options obtained on the prop
erties represent over $37,000 but 1 am
satisfied the improvement will not reach
a total of $30,000. I am satisfied that
tho city controller, city solicitor and
I. who, acccrilng to tho ordinance, nro
commissioners to secure the right of
way from the property owners, can per
form that ofllce so there will no neces
sity of the appointment of viewers and
litigation."
The extension ordinance makes no
provision for an appropriation. If ths
extension was to be made during the
next fiscal year, beginning the first
Monday in April, the cost would have
to be provided in the general appropri
ation ordinance nnd falling In this the
court would give judgment against the
city and order a special levy to cover
the cost- City olIlclals,v however, do
not antic ipato any such contingency as
It Is not expected that the commission
or board of viewers will finish their
work this year.
The supporters of the measure have
contended that settlement with the
property owners can be arranged for
at out half of tho total amount repre
sented by the options They say there
will be no trouble and very little ex
pense in treating with the Delaware
and Hudson company 'for tho removal
of Its tracks from off the site of the
proposed avenue to Its own land on the
westerly side. It is claimed that tho
company is anxious to facilitate the
Improvement us it can conveniently
move its tracks nnd its land holdings
in that locality would be greatly In
creased In value.

MAYOR BAILEY WOULDN'T.
Declined to Burromlrr Hnllot Hoxos
to tho County Commissioners.
The county commissioners cent n
messenger and a horso nnd wagon to
the city hall yesterday for the ballot
boxes to bo used at next Tuesday's
election. Mayor Bailey refused to sur
render tho boxes, for what seems to
be a good and sufficient reason, nnd
they continue to reposo In the vault
In the police department.
Mayor Bailey's refusal was for the
reason that the Kelly-Langstaff elec
tion contest for the county treasure
ship is on, nnd the ballots cast at the
last election have not been removed
from the boxes. The commissioners
were notified that the boxes would be
delivered on an order from court.
Attorneys Joseph Jeffries and James
R. Burnett were a week ago appointed
hy the court to remove nnd seal the
contents of ballot boxes throughout the
county for possible use during tho con
tost. They have been at work In the
suburban towns nnd will seal tho
Scranton returns probably today.

who comes to a mother whose in
telligence has provided such arti
cles of clothing as will contribute
to its comfort and health. No pru
dent mother will delay to seek in
formation respecting this question
of proper clothing for her child.

Great musicians uso KImballa. Tho
testimony of musicians who command
a salary ot from $1,000 to $2,000 for each
performance must be accepted as hav
ing weight. They, at least, escape the
charge of not knowing what they aro
talking about. Lillian Nordica says:
"The more I use my Kimball piano tho
better I like It." Jean Do Iteszke says-.
"We havo concluded to purchase Kim
ball pianos for our personal use." John
Philip Sousa claims: "The Kimball
piano Is first-class In every respect."
Some of the most beautiful cases in
walnut, mahogany and oak can be seen
here. I havo some fino large pianos,
all colors, from $250 to $350, on easy
terms, and a term of lessons free.
