Whether to swear out warrants or not for tho arrest ot "Wntlo M. Finn, AVlllnrel K. Perry and Rutlmid S. Wert on tho charge of perjury was tho ques tion discussed at a consultation yes terdny afternoon nmong Attorneys K. C. Nowromli, I. II. liurns and Senator M. K. McDonnltl at the. lnttor'H olllce. They decided to meet again this morn ing and miree then upon what action to take. Tho cilmlnnl action nsalnst these throe would be based upon their nlll davlt to the bill of particulars In the LangHtnff-Kelley contest. Senator Mc Donald stnted to a Tribune reporter that there uto over thirty districts where more illeaal votes are alleged than Mr. Kelley received. In one dis trict of the Twenty-llrst ward the bill alleges 114 Illegal votes and Mr. Kelley received all told only 31. Other districts Mr. Kelley received fewer votes In than the number of Illegal ones cast for him nlleged In tho bill nre the four districts of the Nine teenth ward, the four districts of the Twentieth ward, two districts In Car bondale, one In Dickson borough, one in the Second ward, and one. In the Sixteenth ward. This Is no hearsay, ho said, but can be seen In the court records contain ing the returns of tho election. Further more, .the total number of alleged ille gal votes Is about lO.noo, only a few thousand below half the entire number polled. If they do not begin criminal pro ceedings, he said, It will be because the court will quash the bill: and they propose to argue today to have It quashed. "When the henring came tip Monday they only pressed one reason in quash and that was predicted upon the new rule handed down by the court before the cne was called, requiting bills of pattlctilars In future contests to be sworn to by at least three of tho signers of the petition. They propose today, he said, to move to Invalidate the allldavlt on the ground that tho, bill possesses repug nant features that no mun can swear to. The court will be nsled to declatc tho bill unworthy of nn allldavlt. MINE TO Ufc REOPENED. A Otico Productive Slope Will Ho Put In Operation Again. Old No. 2 Sugarloaf colliery, near Hazleton, which was first opened in IS.lii and abandoned about llfteen years ago, Is to be re-opened by tho Lehigh Valley Coal company, An exploring party consisting of Caleb Williams, Thomas Mlmford, Thomas J. Williams, William Purdy, Nicholas Michael and Mine Inspector Davies were in the mines a few days ago, 'they being the llrst to enter It In fourteen years. Wil liam W. James says of the mine: "As near as I remember Sugarloaf colliery was the third opened In tho Hazleton region. Who the first opera tor was I do not remember, but in 1S39 II. II. Mears was in charge. There was a company store in the place and tho village had a population .of about 400. The iilnee was sold hy the sheriff In the early CO's', and the .rolling;- stock was purchased by Arlii il?'ar4ee, .who later operated tha colliery. In my time 300 men and boys were employed at the both collieries. The output amount ed to about 600 tons dally. There are thousands of tons of coal In that col liery that have never been touched."

Dennis O'Donnell, of "Wllkes-Rarrc, was committed to the county Jail yes terday for lighting at tho picnic at Central Paik tho night before. Con stable Woelkers arrested him, and locked him In the central -station. In police court yesterday Alderman Kassun asked him what he was arrest id for. O'Donnell said for lighting. "What did you do to the man you were quarreling with?" asked tho al deiman. "I didn't do a thing to him," was tlis reply.

Tho excitement promised over the Lackawanna Telephone company franchise ordinance did not ma terialize In common council last night. When its title was read under the head of concurrent busi ness, Mr. Oliver moved that It be refer red to committee together with a pe tition from about iJOO business and professional men that the prohlblttlvu amendments of select council be stricken from the ordinance. The mo tion prevailed and the measure was referred to tho streets and bridges com mittee which will meet Tuesday even ing to consider it. Appended la a. copy of a printed copy of the petition. About llfty names appear In the printed copies, but the signatures of over 00 repre sentative llrms and Individuals ate attached to the original which was last night referred to committee with the franchise ordinance. The petition fol lows: To tho Honorable the Selict and Com mon Councils of tho City of Scranton, Pennsylvania: Wo, the undersigned, citizens of Scran ton and subscribers for telcpnoncs to be furnished by the' Lackawanna Telephone company, do hereby each emphatically protest against the enactment of an or dinance of the file of select council No. 10 entitled "An ordinance authorizing the Lackawanna Telephone company to con struct and operate linen of telephone in the city of Scrantun, state of Pennsyl vania, under certain conditions" 03 passed by the select council. Tho undersigned most icspectfully rep. resent: First That as this company Is offering to furnish telephone scrvlci to the peo ple of the city of Scranton as good as any telephone scrvlco furnished anywhere In tho country, end better than tho ser vice now received by them, at about one half tho price now being demanded and paid. WHAT TI1KY AUK I2NTITLKD TO. Second That the Lackawanna Tele phono company named In said ordinance Is entitled to and ought to have as good privileges for the estalillshemenl of their plant and furnishing telcphono service to tho citizens of Scranton as nny other company or corporation furnishing Hie same. Third That it Is plain to every one having knowledge of the provisions of said ordinance that the same Is not lust or fair to the said Lackawanna T-le-phone company, nor Is 11 Just or fair to the citizens of Scranton. Fourth That the hist clause of section 1, which reads as follows: "Kxcepting, however, the center of tho city embraced within a radius of 1,W0 yards distance from tho couit house In every direction, beyond which the poles and wires shall be located under tho di rection of tho stieet commissioner and tho city engineer, i.r.d be so located as to do as little damage as possible to private or corporate pioperty." And the ilrsl part of section 2, which reads us follows: "Said Telephone company is also au thorized to construct and lay under the surface of the streets r.nd alleys within a radius of 1,00" yards from and around the court house in every direction, con duits, ducts mains or pipes with the nee esrary manholes, etc., for the purpose of placing thcteln their wires and cable, and to connect said wires end cables under ground with tho si.bscrlbers' premises," are unjust and tnequltnble, and, it would seem, inturded to be prohibitory, and prevent this company from establishing telephone service within the city of Scranton, ngalrst which provisions the undersigned most earnestly and emphat ically protest. The undersigned further represent th.it tho cl(y councils of the city of Sciantou should, and as a matter of right ought t ;mt In said ordinance a piovlslon Jor underground conduits, etc.. nor more stringent and burdensome than is in the ordinance by which the Central Pennsyl vania Telephone and Supply company vcr permitted to establish their plant in the city of Scranton, which provision In the last mentioned ordinance Is as fol- I lows, to wit: STHINCENT PROVISION. Section 5. Said company shall con struct within one jear from t'e passage of this ordinance at bast 2.0W feet of underground conduit, and the same shall be constructed with reference to carrying the wires on the stu-ets whero tho witoj are most numeinus." Fifth And the undersigned further rep resent that the fit j councils cannot bo J.istltli'd in placing a greater bunieti upon one corporation than Is placed upon an other eiiiMKiil in giving to tin public the sumo servke. Special privileges for the purpose of giving one corporation or ono class of business a preference over an other of tin- same class Is abhorrent, and tin undersigned respectfully request that j such shall not be done in regard to tele- phone. s"rv.ce, The undersigned desire also to call tho I attention of councils to the section of the oiillimiico privtdlnir for the giving of a bond, because they Kee no reason why the approval ot said bend should be by oth'-r parties than Is provided In the onll- nance granting certain privileges to tho Centrtl Pom i ylvnnla Telephone and Sup ply company. Lastly, wo most lespoctfully ask tho councils to so fnr modify said ordinance, llle of select crunch Nf. ID. as to conform with the itquibtM herein made. W. W. Watson, A. W. Dickson.

Conrad Vernow, of Archbald, Is lan guishing In the county Jail, but he threatens to make somebody Jump when he gets out, and that will be to day. 'Squire Glldea was down yester day to get him out on ball, but had to wait on account of circumstances. Three or four weeks ago Vernow wont before 'Squire Antony Duffy, of the same borough, and swore out a warrant for a woman for stealing his wash boiler. The defendant was dis charged, and the costs were put on the PD'secutor. The amount was $7 and some cents. He paid it. A few duys later some one told him that an alderman or Justice of tho peace cannot put costs on either party In a criminal suit when the evidence Is not sulllclent to require ball for ap pearance at court. The county pays such costs. Vernow then went before 'Squire Mc Cafferty, of Mavneld, and had a war rant Issued against Duffy for extor tion, Duffy retaliated by swearing out a warrant against Vernow for false representations In the extortion case before McCafferty.and "Squire DoiiRher, of Archbald, before whom Vernow was brought, sent him to jail, where he now Is. Vernow Is n hard-worklns old Ger man, and Is possessed of quite a little property. He has many things to learn about the Intricacies of the law as it Is interpreted In the northern section of the county. 'Squire Glldea Investi gated the case and finds that tho tinnsctipt in tho extortion case Is sent In and that Vernow will be unable to appear before the grand Jury and tho bill will be ignored unless ho gets him out of Jail today. That he intends to do. 'Squire Glldea thinks that Vernow was buncoed in another case. A war rant was sworn out against him for un nlleged ilebt of $4 for meat, and he was taxed with a big bill of costs, which he paid rather than go to jail, although civil proceedings Instead of criminal should have been brought.
