About fenty of the Cnibondale wit nesses in the election contest, for whom attachments were Issued, put in an ap pearance esteiday before the examln eis Prom the stotles they told In otos-e.ainlnat!on, It Is safe to piesumo that, as In the ease of Andrew O'C'on noll on the previous dny, the costs of the attachments and the cxtta expense to which the witnesses weie put will have to be borne by the contestant. Hveiy man of them, with one ex 1 eptlon, had answered when subpoen aed In Cnrbondule, some of them at tending as many as a dozen times and none of them having been theie less tlinn twice. The two exceptions weie John Mur i.iy and Thomas A. Casey. They swoie positively that they were never sub poenaed Casey further said that he wn ptescnt nt the hearings In Cnr lierc'ale twenty-five times. His place of business is just aetoss tho load from the city hall, wherehe examiners held their sessions and every dny that there wus.ihearlnghe was piesent as a spec tator. Muiray, it developed, wasn't Included In the bill of particulars and, oi course, was not subject to either subpoena or attachment Matthew rinnnelly, Daniel Loftus, Jnmes Collins nnd John W.

Another of the men Irregularly drag ged down from Cnibondale was the veneiable Thomas Gordon, father of ex-Chief of Police William Gordon, and one of the leading citizens of the Pion eer Cltj. He was bom In Cnibondale nearly seventy ears ago and has lived thete all his life. He Is also an exten Mve piopeity holder. Mr Gordon swore on the witness btand that tio attended the hearing in Carbondale for twelve successive days and repeatedly asked to be examined and he permitted to turn his attention to his business. Many of those who were brought down esterday could not be examined and will have to make nnothcr trip. INSPECTION AT HONESDALE. Colonel Wattes and Staff Went There Last Night. Colonel L A.

MUCH INTEREST IN COMING ELECTION REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES BE STIRRING THEMSELVES. The Crawford County Rules Are Re sponsible for This Early Begin ning of the Spring Campaign As This Is tho First Test of tho Rules Hereabouts the Result Will Be Watched with Much Interest Dec. 15 Is tho Last Day on Which Can didates Can Register. Although the spring election is two and one-half months avvuy, tho Inter est already shown in It Is something quite remarkable. The Crawford county rules which aro to be tested by the Republicans of tho city are In a mensure reponslble for the enrly Interest In the campaign, for they require that the candidates get in the field early. Dec. 15 is tho last day a candidate for n. Republican nomina tion can enter the lists nnd most of them to be sure their opponents obtain no advnntnge, have already registered. The convention will not bo held until Jan. 17, but as each candidate for a nomination must go before the Repub lican voters for endorsement, the month that Intervenes between the last day for registration nnd the primaries on Jan. 14 will lie short enough for tho men who nre desirous of making a can vass of the Republican voters of the city. This change of method has already thrown unusual activity into the fight, which will continue to Increase until the primal les ute held. As this Is tho first time the Crawford countv rules have been tried hereabouts, tho test Is being closely watched by the members of all tho political households. POUR CANDIDATES. For the Republican nomination for mayor four candidates have nlicady registered They nre Captain James Molr, cx-Shelff A. H Stevens, Colonel George Sanderson nnd Benjamin Smith, of West Scrnnton, who registered yesteiday. A number of other gentlemen have been spoken of In connection with tho nomination, but they have not up to this time formally ciec iarcd their candidacy by register ing. Of the three gentlemen who havo reglsteied. Captain James Molr Is mak ing the most energetic effort to secure the requhed endorsement of his brother Republicans. Mr. Stevens 19 also mak ing quite an energetic canvass. Mr. HandcThon appears content to leave the matter to the voteis. John Vnn Hergan, George Carson, Jo seph Alexander, Jr., T. R. Brooks, who are ambitious to be city treasurer, will have a lively btruggle for the nom ination The situation as to city controller has been enlivened by the nppeatnnce of ex-Controller F. J. Wldmayer as a can didate. His exceptionally fine record while he filled the oftlce gives him a strong argument to go before the Re publican voters' For 1 Ity assessor the candidates ure very numerous and it is not possible for any person to fore shadow who the three successful ones will be. Much talk Is heard about the possible make up of tho Demociatlc city ticket and a good deul of figuring Is done on possible slates, but Montlment has not yet begun to costallze and probably will not for seveial weeks, as the con vention will not be held until after the Republican nominations are made, un less some of the ambitious candidates should get the w hip hand and force matters to an Issue at nn eat Her date than the leaders think ndvlsable. POSSIBLE CANDIDATES. City Treasurer C. G. Boland has an nounced that he will not seek a. re election. It Is probable that lie will not unless a ticket should be named that is to his liking. Ho looked with favor, 'tis said, on the candidacy of City Controller Edmund J. Robinson for mayor, because Mr. Boland would again like to run on the same ticket with the popular young South Sldo German. The tatter'9 friends are urging him to have nothing to do with the mayor alty. He Is better fitted for the offices of city conti oiler or city treasurer, they contend, nnd argue that he can havo either nomination if he desires it. As the oftlce of city treasurer Is the most desirable in the gift of the people of Scranton, Mr. Robinson, if a candidate at all, will undoubtedly decide that he would like that nomination. When Mr. Robinson Is spoken of for city tieiiburer Hon. John E. Roche Is iibuallv put on the same slate with him for the olllce of mayor. Hon. M. F. Sando is also mentioned frequently as the possible Democratic nominee for mayor, but he has not Intimated that he wants or would accept tho nomina tion. E. J. Lynett, editor of the Times, is another prominent Democrat who Is frequently spoken of In connection with he mayoialty. Among the Democrats mentioned for city controller Is Henty Zelgler, of South Scranton, formerly a member of the board of health. Tor the assessor nominations the crop Is very plentiful, Gvvllym Jones, of South Hyde Park avenue, and Philip Rinsland, of 1418 Monsey avenue, yesterday registered with Chairman Chittenden as candi dates for city assessor. Georga Benore, ox-selectman from the rifth ward, announced himself, yesterday, as a candidate for city treas urer on the Republican ticket. He will register with Chairman Chittenden to day. K. of O.

Trial Was Attended by Many Prom inent Horsemen. Before Judge Gunster in common pleas court yesterday Henry L. Shifter, of Stroudsbuig, prosecuted a suit to recover $400 on a little, black, pacing mare now in the possession of George Jacobus nnd Thomas Moore. Three jears ago Mr. Shtffer nent tho animal to the Driving Park in this city to be trained by "Doc" Smith. When a bill of $151 for keep and handling had accumulated, Mr. Shlf fer, It Is alleged, told the trainer that he didn't propose to put nny more money Into the training of the horse nnd bnde him do what he pleased with the animal. To recoup the $153 Smith sold the horse to Jacobus and Moore. Now Shifter denies having given nny such Instructions to Smith nnd sues the present holders of the horse to recover what he claims Is worth $400. Nearly all the prominent "Docs," horse fanciers nnd tho like here and hereabouts were present nt the trial, either as witnesses or spectators. The case is etltl on. E. C. Nevvcombe ep resents the plaintiff nnd E. H. Shurtteff the defendants. In the case of II. A. narnard against T. Hunt Brock a verdict was returned for the defendant. A verdict for tho defendant was taken In tho case of Thomas Dickson nnd others against S. Tunstall and others.
