BUSINESS YESTERDAY.
Tenant Wanted Landlord to Pay for
tho Barn Question Involving tho
Licenses of Scranton Real Estate
Brokers West Rldgo Coal Case
Could Not Be Pioceeded with Be
cause of Interference with the
Sinking of the Boro Hole New
Trial Is ABked.
In common pleas court two new enses
was called for trial yesterday U. P.
Hulling against Melvlna Htree, was
one of them. Tho plaintiff was at one
time a tenant of tho defendant In a
Green Itldgu property. Tho tenant
built a barn on tho premises and when
lie moved out sought to recover for
the value of the barn, alleging that the
landlord had agreed to buy the barn
whenever tho tonnnt moved out The
landlord denies this and hence the lult,
A feature of the cuse Ih that there Is
no evidence of the agreement from
either of tho principals, the plaintiff
having died und the defendant on that
account being estopped fioin testify
ing, under the rule that the death of
one of the parties to n contract seals
the lips of the other. .Tudgp Gunster
gave the case to the Jury nt adjourn
ing time.
Vosbuig & Dawson represented the
Plaintiff und E. C. New comb the de
fendant. In the case of C. P. Jadwin against
Robert H. Hurley, a suit to recover
commissions for the sale of real es
tate, court Is called upon to decide
whether n city treasurer or county
treasurer Is the proper party to giant
real estate brokers licenses.
Mr Jadvvln sold three lots for Mr
Hurley In North ParK for $4,S00. Mr.
Hurley claimed that the lots were sold
for less than he agreed to dispose of
them for, nnd declined to pay Mr.
Jadw ill's claim for 5 per cent, com
mission. Mr. Jadw In sued nnd to pre
vent a recoveiy Mr. Hurley attacks
Mr. Jadwln's broker's license, alleg
ing that the county trensurer and not
the city treasurer should have Ibsued
the license.
DECISION RESERVED.
Judge Love, who Is trjlng tho case,
has reserved his decision on the law
point Involved. In most counties of the
state the county treasurer is the poi
son authorized to Issue brokei's license,
but In this county, formed under a
special act, brokers In cities must se
cure their licenses from the city treas
urer. Patteison & Wllcov and C Comegvs
represent the plaintiff. T. T. Wells Is
Mr. Hurley's attorney.
The case of Hhrgood against the
Moscow Water company went to the
Juiy nt noon. No verdict had been
reached at adjournment and word
came from the Jury room that they
were "liable to be together for a week "
The Springer case will, It Is expected,
go to the jury today. Yesterday was
mostly taken up by the defendant with
the presentation of testimony from his
neighbors thnt he had lived on the
property for thirty years and had con
tinually lmpioved It. In rebuttal the
plaintiff offcied testimony to show that
Springer was on the pioperty by suf
feianco of the plaintiff and his pre
decessors In title Griffith Thomas, of
the Greenwood Coal company, testi
fied that Spilnger was engaged by his
company to cut timber from the land
In dispute at so much per day, and
that Springer never Intimated that he
expected un thing for the tlmbei.
Judge Archbald reconvened equity
court yesterday morning with the ex
pectation of concluding the West Ridge
coal case. It wasn't concluded nnd
now there Is no telling when It will
be concluded.
NATURE OF FAULTS.
In the disposition of the case much
depends on the natme and extent of a
"fault" which exists in the upper Dun
moie vein, and by which the company
excuses Us failure to mine the mini
mum demanded by the lease with the
Von Storchs,
Monday afternoon the company of
ferred testimony to show that a bore
holo had been sunk from the Clark
vein through the upper Dunmore, at
a point heveral hundred feet beyond
the "fault," and that no coal whatever
was found, leaving the Inference that
tho vein halted at the fault. The de
fendants, the lessors, contended that
the bore hole had not gone down as
far as tho upper Dunmore, the core
showing, It Is alleged, that the Ui ill
had not even penetrated the sand
stone that overlies the vein in ques
tion. Judge Archbald decided to have the
boring continued for a reasonable dis
tance to test the contention of the
lessors, and ndjourned the case until
yesterday morning In order to give the
defendants an opportunity of disprov
ing their opponent's claim, When the
case was re-opened yesterday It was
reported by the defendants that they
had been unable to continue tho bor
ing. The Delaware and Hudson com
pany, which owns the upper veins, 10
fused to grant pei mission to the borers
to enter the Clark woi kings, claiming
that they were filled with gas and theie
was danger of setting the mine nflte.
The drills and pump were removed,
presumably by the Delaware and Hud
son company, and up to yestetday
nothing wns known of their where
abouts by tho defendants,
i:ach accuses other.
Each side was accusing the other, in
dliectly, of spiriting the drill away
to prevent the dlsclosuies It was to
make, and for a time thete were home
lively exchanges between the lavvyeis.
Judge Aichbald finally brought about
peace by saying that ns they were
more suspicious of each other than he
was of both, there was no occasion for
further discussion, or, In other woul,
It was unavailing for them to tiy to
make inpltul out of something that
was not cnpable of rendering any re
turns, It being probable that It was
the Delaware and Hudson officials who
had removed the machinery.
Tho case was adjourned until such
time us the boilng is finished, and the
Judge enn afford tlmr to henr the re
sults. If necessary court will Interfeie
to secure an entrance for the drillers
to tho Clatk vein, the engineers en
gaged In the rase, having stated that
the place can be made safe and se
cure. The case of Addlo Ilopfer, by her
next friend, Edward Phillips, against
John Ball, was referred by agreement
to John II, Bonner.
Application for a new trial was made
in the case of D. II. Replogle, assigned
to David T. Williams, against Agnes
J. and William (. Carey, in which
Judge Gunster on Tuesday rave bind-
InR Instructions" for tho plaintiff. At
torneys Mulholland and Donner gave
as reasons for asking a new trial!
First, that court erred In not permit
ting tho defendants to offer evidence
of nn equitable defense, under the
pica of payment with leave; second,
that court erred In not permitting evi
dence of fraud and duress In the exe
cution of tho contract, and In the con
feflslon of Judgment; third, that tho
court erred in not submitting tho case
to tho Jury.

ASSESSMENT REVISED.
Judge Gunster Made Revisions in
Two Cases Reasons That He
Gave Other Cases That
Aic Now Fending.
Theie Is tiouble In stole for the city
nssessois. In two of the rectnt ap
peals from the valuation fixed bv the
1S3S assessment, decisions were made
by Judge Gunster vesterdty and in
both Instances tho appellants were the
winners. This will doubtless tend to
btln? on many more ppponls nnd the
consequences will be that the nssess
ois will be kept busy tevlslng their
assessments
The eases decided yesterday were
those of John A. and Joseph A. Mears
nnd W. E. Tlnver. The Mears proper
ty is located at lit and 111 South Main
avenue. The piopcrtv at HI South
Main avenue was assessed for $400
moie than last year. Judge Gunster
knocks off this $400 und $t00 along with
It, making tho 1&1S assessment lower
by $300 than the 197 assessment. The
other property had been Increased $2J0.
Couit directed that It should temaln
at tho valuation Hxed In 1S)7. The
Judge found, as the appellants elleged,
that no Impiovements had been made
dining the vear and that the valua
tions were higher nropoitlonately than
those of other properties in the same
neighborhood.
The Thayer propel ty at the corner
of South Main avenue and Oxford
street was assessed for S1.6J0, In 1S1",
and $2,200, in lS.Vj Judge Gunster di
rects that the viluatlon remain nt the
1S97 figure. He said. In the opinion 'ic
compenylng the decision: "It appears
that the assessment of other property
In the neighborhood was made on a
basis of about one-thlid of the mar
ket value. Accenting to this lule, the
assessment for 1807 was about light."
