When a Contract Is Started There Must Be no Interruption. Work on tho paving of Dlx court, In the rear of clfy hall, which was be Bun this week by Contractor lUidiiy, has been stopped by City Engineer Phillips. The contractor professed to have madu all the necessary arrangements for his material Insuring against de lay, but an Investigation by tho engi neer proved these arrangements were not to his satisfaction and he shut down on the work. l!eraue of the largo number of Im provements under way this year tho city engineer proposes to bo especially strict In thlSj,rpgard. Ho even goes so far as to satisfy himself that tho contractor proposes to pay for tho material In good lime, this being neces sary, as ho views It, because the city tins no control of the sub-contractors who supply material and If there Is In any way trouble In this respect there Is no way In which tho city can pre vent a delay In tho operations. The penalty for failure to complete a contract In the stipulated time Is such a well known fiction that It needs no mention. CONFLICTING STORIES. They Wero Told with Itefeience to tho Death of John Bolaskl Cor oner's Jury Thought He Was Murdered. The coronoi's Jury empanelled to in estlgato the circumstances In connec tion with tho death of John l!alatkl or Andrew Chaboiach as his real name Is, who died Wednesday at the Lacka wanna hospital from a fiactnre of the skull, met last night In the arbitration room nt the court houso and found a lund nut to ctack. One of the witness es testified that the deceased had cried out in Slavish, "Kngllsh boys killed me." us he was going Into the bouse, and another witness stated that he had said nothing and was upstairs before fulling. The witness who offeted the first tes timony was Jlrs. William Qraumnn, who resides at S4S Capouse avenue. She slated that during the afternoon deceased had been going1 out through an area-way alongside her houso to a. saloon and boys on the street threw stones at him. In tho evening about 9 o'clock, as sho war sitting In her kitch en, Andrew cuine through the area way, going to the house In the rear, whete he lived, A few minutes later she heard hltn scream and cry out, "D It, rmglish boys kill me." Her son went out and coming back s-ald "Andrew was lying on tho floor and was hurt." Jits. JCate Hlrceiioek, who Is it widow and keeps the boat ding hous-o where Andrew boaided. stated that she wns In bed and Andrew came Into tho house about It o'clock. He called her to get him some coffee. She got up and got the coffee and he could not drink It. She told him to go to bed and he went upstairs. She went back to her room and a few minutes later, Andtcw called to her lo tome up and take hi." shoe off. She did not answer. Shortly afterwards, she heard him drop his shoes on tho floor and then walk across tho loom towards, the stair head. Then she hcatd the fall and bhe ran out and he was lying on the floor at tho foot of the utalis. Sho called to John Kurltch, the boarder up stairs and he came down.

He (John) went to bed early and was up-stalrs when Andrew caniu up and was awak ened by Andrew calling to the boarding" mlstrehs to come up and take his shoes off. Andiew took the shoes off him self, and started toward tho stairs. A moment later, he heard the fall and then the woman called out. Ho got up and went down. Kurltch's story was ;hU3 corroborative of the woman's storv. The jury considered the testimony and returned the following verdict: "We, the jury called to Investigate the death of Andrew Chaborach, lnd that the deceased came to his death at the hands of some person or poisons un known to thp jury." The juiy com prised D. J. Thomas. J. W. Reese, Stephen McKenna, H. P. Ferber, Rich ard Dougherty and Joseph Rodney. ELKS MINSTREL SHOW. Another Large Audience Saw It Last Night.

Gang That Held Up Watchman at the Bollevuo Breaker Relented After Taking His Watch, and Upon Returning It Presented Him with Another, Offered Him Money and Filled His Pockets with Cigars. Evidence That Thoy Had Cracked a Safe Before Visiting the Mine. After thinking It all over yesterday, Watchman John Apgar, of tho Belle vue breaker, was Inclined to say "come ngaln" to tho trio of thieves who held him up early yesterday morning, us told In yesterday's Tribune. When he refused to open up tho car penter shop they threw him to tho ground, although not very violently, and cutting the legs from his trousers tote them Into strips and bound him. They then walked hint to the carpen ter shop, burst open tho door, escotted him Inside, nnd, after binding his feet, made him sit by with a revolver at his head to enforce silence while they proceeded to break open the tool chests and help themselves to braces, bits, chisels, bats and such other toots as might be useful In their business. This being concluded, one ot the party started In to rcllove the watch man of his valuables, Ills gold watch was seized upon and conveyed to the pocket of one of the thieves. An other of the trio began to search the watchman's tiousers pockets. Mr. Ap gar told him he might save hlmsel! the ttouble, as there was no money thuic. DIDN'T WANT HIS MONEY. "We don't want your money, do we follows? We've got lots ot It," the seurcher answered as he desisted. Then to prove to his victim that It was no Idle boast he was making, he pulled a big roll of bills from his hip pocket and exhibiting it to Mr. Apgar pulled a ten dollar note from the toll and of fered It to him. The watchman re fused the money, but Intimated mildly that he would like to have his watch. "Give him his watch," said the larg os! of the tilo, who was evidently the leader. "You've got another." "Yaas. I've got watches to. bum. Hole's your ticker, 1 don't want It; and while jou ure ut It havo another," and with this the robber shoved n silver watch Into Mr. Apgar's vest pocket, along with returning his own gold watch. "We're pretty libetal fellow.", aren't wo?" one of them rematked as they were tlelng tho watchman moie seeuie ly before departing. They gagged him by stufllng his necktie Into his mouth and then filling his pockets with cigars left him lying on the floor, while they disappeared in tho darkness with the stolen tools. Tho watchman tolled along the lloor till he came within reach of a hatchet, and, after some bald work, succeeded In sawing the bonds which held his wrists and then toleaslng himself. SUSPICIOUS CHARACTERS. The police In Investigating the mat ter vesterday learned that three suspicious-looking characters were seen about the barn of Butcher John James, of J3elleue Heights, about 1 o'clock In the morning and that an Iron box, evi dently the cash box of a safe, had been found In that neighborhood when day light came. A visit to Mr. James verified this. He said he watched them for nearly an hour from his bedroom window, ex pecting they were preparing to break Into his shop. Ho was prepared to give them a warm welcome if they at tempted it. The box was turned over to the police and is now at headquarters. It con tained three ladies' purses, an envelope Intended for subscriptions for the Pres byterian Sabbath school missions, an other envelope addressed by Andrew Doles, secretary, Taylor, to S. J, Smith, 20G South Main avenue, Scranton, and a book containing many entries rela tive to rails and the Jersey Central railroad. "Given to chinch, 1SS7, for M., $2,600, for parish: $.'00 foreign mis sions." Chief Robllng gave orders last night to have the ofllcers gather In all tho tramps that could be found In the city, and made requests on Wllkes-Barre, Plttston and iCarbondalo to do likewise. Mr. Apgar avers that his visitors were not tramps. They wore no masks, and ho could readily Identify them, ho says, It he saw them again. STRICKEN WITH APOPLEXY.

By dodging about In a dlsoiderly way fioin one order of business to unother ut last night's meeting, the select council, unconsciously dodged the con sideration of nn ordinance that will very likely cause quite a stir before it has been finally disposed or. It Is nothing les than a new stieet ear tax measure. Mr. O'Boyln lms It In hand. He In tended to Introduce It nnd several times when council was In the sixth order of business he sought to gain tha attention or the chair but each tlmo before Mr. O'Boyle could secure recog nition there would be n request for unanimous consent to go Into homo other older of business and not wishing to be discourteous Mr. O'Boyle would not object. The consequence was that while Mr. O'Boyle was deeply Inter ested In a conversation with some oth er member council adjoin nod and ho was lett with th ordinance still In his hand He railed to the members to come back but they weio too Interest ed In Infoinutl discussions ot the pos sibility of the anti-iuaudamus men go ing to Jail to hear or at least heed him. Mr. O'Uoyle's ordinance contemplates) a tax of $Gi) on every car used by companies whose linos are wholly with in the city limits, and $30 for cais op erated by companies whose lines nro only in part within the city limits. No tax Is to be placed on extra cars, such as aro nin only on holidays or special occasions. The companies are to leport tho number of cars in operation on tho first of April each year, and la case of failure to do this the city controller is to estimate them and asssess the tax accordingly. Should tho company fall to pay the tax within thirty days fol lowing April 1, the city solicitor is to proceeed against them In law to effect the collection. Mr. O'Boyle says he will Introduce the ordinance at tho next weetlng. DEATH BRINGS RELIEF. Frank McHugh, Whose Back Was Broken, Suffered Awful Agony.

It Is tho Intention to Arrange All Exhibits In Classes and Not Permit Any One City or Firm to Malta a Special Exhibit E. P. Cowell, Who Is Now in tho City, Is Very Enthusiastic Over the Prospects of tho Exposition. K. P. Cowell, representing the Phila delphia exposition, wns In the city yes terday working up Interest In the ex position among our local manufac turers. To Secretary Atherton he said tho ex position management would not ap prove, ho thought, of tho Idea ot the Scranton board of trade of having n Scranton exhibit. It Is tho Intention to arrange all exhibits in clusscs and not. to permit any one city or firm to make a special exhibit of Its own. For In stance: Silks, no matter where they come from, will be grouped together. Iron manufactures will occupy one building, probably, and tho different classes of articles will be sub-divided according to their character. The city of York wanted tn erect a S20.000 build ing of its own on the exposition grounds but tho management would not ap ptove ot the Idea. There Is nothing to prevent a city from taking In hand the matter of ex hibiting Its products, but tho manner of exhibiting them must lest with the management of the exposition. It is preferable, Mr. Cowell snys, that nianii factuiers should make application for space dliect to the exposition manage ment. A number of Scranton firms have already done this. ( Mr. Cowell Is very enthusiastic over tho prospects of the exposition. He says its success was assured from the very beginning. The ptlmary feature of the affair Is the international com mercial congress. Over 1.000 delegates fiom foreign countries have already signified their intention to attend. These delegates represent governments, chambers of commeice and big com mercial houses. They come here to see what we have to offer for trade and In cidentally to exchange Ideas. As a result of the congress held two yeats ago under the auspices of t!.e Philadelphia museum, millions of dol lars worth of goods weio shipped to ports where pieviously our exporteis had never even sought business While the increasing of our foreign trade Is the pilmary object of the ex position, It will not be lacking In gen eral lntetest to the visitor. The auto motor fchow which Is being arranged Is expected to bo one of the most Inter esting exhibits ever made at a fair. Tiie Franklin Institute, the renowned scientific and historical society, cele brates Its seventy-fifth anniversary this year and has arranged to make Its exhibit a part of the exposition. The congress, the commercial museum and the Institute exhibit will combine to make one ot the most inteiesting events of this character ever conducted. The exposition will open September 14 and close November 'M. The exposi tion grounds are In West Philadelphia. The main buildings cover eight acres and there are llfty-four acres for de tached structures, special exhibits and amusement featuies. GLABB. WOULD DO MURDER.
