TO TAX THE HUCKSTERS,
Mayor Moir Proposes to Enforce an
Old Ordinance.
Complaints fiom merchants, coupled
with tho city's, need of more, revenue,
havo prompted' Muyor Molr to move
for tho enforcement of the old ordin
ance levying a tax on hucksters and
peddlers of all sorts. Mounted Officer
Block was sent out yesterday with In
structions to notify all of these people
lie could find that they must report to
the city treasurer's office and proem e
a license.
Ho succeeded In serving notice on
twenty-seven different parties, but
none of them obeyed his Instructions.
It is a question If tho law can bo en
forced. Tho ordinance, which was
passed before tho enactment of tho
law of 1889, provides that select coun
cil shall appoint an appraiser to fix
the amount of licenses to be paid In
cases where the city is empowered to
levy special taxes. During tho term
of Mayor Fellows a dispute arose as
to who should appoint tho appraiser.
Under the ordinance select council
should do it. Under the act of 1S89,
tho mayor illls all ofilces created by
ordinance. The result of the dispute
was that no appraiser was appointed
and none has ever been appointed
slnco.
The ordinance In question was passed
In IMS. It levies a tax on all kinds of
fiitertalnmcnts, excepting those given
by local talent, and on all manner of
l uslness transacted within tho city.
The idea of tho mayor is to enforce
this ordinance against the hucksters
who compcto against our merchants
who pay a stipulated mercantile tax.
Tho city solicitor will bo asked for an
opinion In tho matter.

ITR0M A MANILA PAPER.
How tho Situation Is Viewed on the
Spot.
Through the courtesy of Mr. P. A.
Phllbln, of tho Archbald Citizen, Tho
Tribune has received a copy of "Free
dom," a til-weekly paper of eight
pages, published at Manila, Philippine
Islands, under date of April 20. Mr.
Phllbln received tho paper from the
Citizen's special war correspondent
now on tho fighting line, Prlvato A. J.
O'Horo, of the First Washington vol
unteers, a former Archbald boy.
"Freedom" Is red hot for expansion.
Concerning the "antls" In tho states It
says: "Some men have souls so small
that thousands of them could roam on
the little end of nothing for forty years
nnd never come within telephonic dis
tance of each other." Replying to
strictures In the Hong Kong Dally
Press on tho American policy In tho
Philippines, "Freedom" says:
Tho fact Is, tho United States has
treated tho Filipino with every possl
Mo consideration. No human power
could havo dono more with honor. Tho
natives mistook this generosity for weak
ncs3, and papers bucIi as tho Hong Kong
Dally Press must find something to criti
cise; they will crcltlclso tho administra
tion on tho Golden Shore, nnd will Kick
at St. Peter when ho hands out tho harp3.
The Filipinos wanted a fight, and they
got one. That Is tho whole matter In a
nut shell. And they can havo ns much
as they want, and ns long ns they want,
nnd when tha battered remnant of tho
Filipino nntlon comes to Its senses, wo
think it will bo the foundation of a t-rcat
nnd powerful country. Greatness conies
from adversity and chastisement, nnd
X'nclo Sam can dish out all that may bo
required.
"Freedom" contains a liberal repre
sentation of advertisements, but most
of them exploit tho merits of certain
brands of American beers and medi
cines. NOT A HOWLING SUCCESS.
Firemen's Fair Receipts Fall Far
Short of Expectations Bazaar
Will Bo Conducted.
The firemen's fair, which came to a
close Saturday night, was not the suc
cess that was counted upon. The net
proceeds will not be much over J3.000,
and they were confidently expected to
reach twice that figure.
The fault of this does not He- with tho
firemen, their fair committee or tho
general manager but with tho publlo
at large, which was looked to for more
liberal patronage.
It Is safe to say that eighty-five per
cent, of the money taken In nt the fair
was contributed by the firemen them
selves. Some nights there were not a
half-dozen persons in attendance at the
fair outside of the firemen and the
ladles who wore assisting, yet on these
occasions it was not uncommon to take
in $150.
Ex-Chief P. J. Illckey, chairman of
the fair committee, and, it might bf
said, "tho wheel horse" or the fair;
Charles II. Miller, the treasurer; Joseph
W. Hall, the assistant manager, nnd
Joseph Danner, of the executive com
mittee, did not miss a night nt the
armory during tho progress of the fair,
and to them more than anybody else
should be given the credit for what
success was achieved.
General Manager McQuIvey 1b to 1
congratulated, too, on the arrange
ments for the fair, which comprised his
particular work. No more beautiful or
more plentifully stocked booths were
ever seen at a fair In this city. There
was no ground for complaint as to this
feature of the event, and especially as
to the manner In which the Scranton
business men responded to the call for
contributions of articles. It was tho
failure of the people at large to attend
tho fair and Invest In these articles
that prevented it from being tho big
success that was counted upon.
The remaining articles were yester
day moved to the main store room in
the Stover building on Franklin ave
nue, where a bazaar will be conducted
Wednesday and Saturday evenings for
several weeks. The contests 'will be de
cided on tho last night of tho bazaar.
When this will be the committee can
not as yet state.
FORMAL REORGANIZATION.
Board of Six Meets and Elects Full
Set of Officers.
The board of six school directors met
In the board of control rooms In city
hall yesterday morning and reorgan
ized. All members wcro present, with
the exception of Fred S. Godfrey, who
Is preparing to sail for Europe.
The following otllcers were elected.
President, D. I. Phillips; secretary,
Eugene D. Fellows; solicitor, David
J. Davles.
The meeting was held in pursuance
of tho law directing that tho board
meet on tho first Monday of June for
reorganization.
As to tho legality of the board of six,
tho opinion wus expressed by President
Phillips that everything depends upon
the stand to be taken by the new mem
bers of tho supremo court, as the pre
sent members of that tribunal aro
equally divided on tho subject. Tho
rosltlon of Judgo Smith is not known,
but Judgo Archbald, if elected, Mr.
Phillips thought, would bo In favor of
tho board of six, as In a former opinion
ho decided that the board of twenty
one was an illegal organization.

DECIDED CHANGE IN
STRIKE SITUATION
MANY JOBS TIED UP BY
DAY'S RESOLUTION.
SUN-
Operations at Nino Difforcut Places
Aro Affected Carponters Claim
That 225 Men Havo Been Placed
nt Work Under tho Union Regula
tionsDenial of tho Statement
That They Refused to Confer with
tho Builders Bricklayers Havo a
Meeting.
Decided was tho change which oc
curred yesterday In tho strike situa
tion. The change wns tho direct result
of the resolution adopted on Sundny by
tho Building Trades Council, ns printed
in Tho Tribune yesterday.
Ten Jobs were tied up and every
branch of tho building trades allied
with tho council wns affected. Also
iron workers and electricians, the for
mer already organized nnd the latter
practically so. This adds about 100
more men to tho number now out.
Two more contractors, not members
of tho Hulldors' Exchange, have con
ceded tho carpenters' demands, and
two Master iPlnsterers, also not affili
ated with tho Exchange, have granted
the plasterers' rules. The situation so
far as It concerns tho tinsmiths and
their demands remains the same.
Several non-union men were reported
to havo nrtlved here to go to work.
Some of these were seen and later loft
the city. Others made application for
membership In the unions.
A rough estimate was made yester
day of tho number of cnrtienters now
back nt work on Jobs being put up
under tho now rules, and It was given
out that about 200 men were so work
ing. Added to these, the tinsmiths nnd
plasterers bring It up to 223 nt work
out of about 700 who originally went
out.
ISSUING CARDS.
To protect tho contractor and work
men busy on Jobs going forward under
the new rules, n big card beailng the
following Inscription, "Union Job
Issued to Contractor , by the
Carpenters' executive committee, Alex
ander Glnmer, chairman; Charles Cor-
less, Jr., secretary," will bo posted In
a conspicuous place on each building.
Business Agent John M. Knowlton.
of tho carpenters, yesterday secured
six Jobs from vailous sources which
will bo given today to union carpen
ters to bo dono by them under their
own management. These Jobs will in
all probability employ from thirty to
fifty men.
"Tho situation is Just the same. The
members of tho Exchange are stand
ing Just as firm and do not, nor will
not, talk of settlement or compromise,"
was the answer given yesterday at the
Builders' Exchange rooms In nnswer to
a query by a Tribune man concerning
the condition of affairs.
At the carpenters'-tlnsinlths'-plaster-ers'
headquarters, 400 Lackawanna ave
nue, roll-call was held ns usual. The
spirit of the men continues high, and,
if anything, they seem to grow more
enthusiastic. The same orderliness and
desire of respecting the peace and
rights of others characterizes their ac
tions. It was an exceedingly busy day for
Business Agent John A. Price, of tho
Building Trades Council, upon whom
fell the task of seeing that the direc
tions of the council were carried out to
tho letter.
JOBS THAT ARE AFFECTED.
Tho Jobs and men affected by the
council's action arp as follows:
Lackawanna Trust and Safe Deposit's
new bank building, Conrad Schrocder,

Acuity at any timo tho Builders' Ex
change bccs fit to do so.
At a special meeting of Bricklayers'
union, No. 18, held last night In Ratio's
hall, it was decided that tho union
would continue its offer of moral and
financial aid to the militated unions of
tho Building Trades' council now out
on strike.
Further It did not seem to bo the
sense of tho union to take any radical
steps.
The meeting was a lengthy one nnd
the situation was gone over carefully
with duo consideration of the position
of tho other unions in the council.
Their delegates will submit a report
nt the council's special meeting tonight
which may have material bearing upon
tho possibilities of a general and com
plete tie up.
The members of the Bricklayers'
union are Inclined to be very conserva
tive In their participation In the strike.
Apparently they would prefer not to
enter actively into the matter as a
body, though In favor of the resolu
tion adopted by tho Building Trades'
council on Sunday last.
At Hulbert's hall last night another
meeting of those poisons Interested In
the organization of a local of tho
Brotherhood of Electrical Workers of
America was held, and the object of
the meeting, that of perfecting the or
ganization, was practically effected.
Ofllcers were elected and several com
mittees were appointed. It Is expect
ed that tho charter will be ready next
week and by that time the constitu
tion nnd by-laws will be formulated
and adopted.
Mnrtln D. Flaherty, president of the
Central Labor union, was present at
last night's meeting and explained the
objects and benefits of the organization
nnd cleared away the doubts of pros
pective members. Tho next meeting
will be held at tho call of the commit
tee on by-laws.
MEETINGS TONIGHT.
Car Builders' union, No. 7502. will
meet In regular session tonight In In
dustrial hall. Important business is to
come up for consideration and every
member Is urgently lequested to at
tend. The Building Trades Council will

Industrial Notes.
It was announced by the Pennsylva
nia Coul company that No. 3 shaft at
Barnum colliery, near Plttston, will be
sunk from the Fittston vein to the red
ash vein.
It Is reported on good authority that
a vein of soft coal has been discovered
within five miles of Athens. The par
ties Interested, however, are keeping
the location and the results of their
Investigation a secret. It Is to be
hoped that the new mine will le more
promising than the ones which have
been periodically unearthed before.

FELL AGAINST A CAR.
Dominick Gllligan, of Mineral
Street, Severely Injured.
Dominick Gllligan, an aged man,
whose home Is at GOS'.j Mineral street,
while walking along Carbon street
near Penn avenue at 4.50 o'clock yes
terday afternoon fell ngalnst street
car No. 12 of the Peckvllle line, which
was traveling nt a good rate of speed
In nn opposite direction.
Gllllgan's head struck against the
frame of an open window. He was
knocked senseless to the street and in
a few minutes lay In a pool of blood
which flowed freely from his nose and
cars.
Before the arrival of the Lackawanna
hospital ambulance, which wns sent
for, the Injured man was taken to his
home. He recovered a half hour later
and after his wife had dressed tho
deep gash In his left temple seemed
little the worse for tho experience.
Tha car was filled with passengers
at tho timo and as Gllligan, who Is a
tall man, tottered from the sidewalk
toward tho car It looked as though ho
was trying to take a peep Inside. The
sound of his hend striking tho framo
caused a general outcry and ono wo
man swooned.
Georgo Mead was motorman of the
car and Frank Clark conductor.
NO CHECK ON THE MAYOR.
Harrisburfj Decision Removes It,
Mayor Moir Claims.
Under a ruling made In tho Patrol
man Anthony Walsh case by City
Solicitor Torrcy, Chief Illckey will lay
claim to salary for tho time Interven
ing between his notlco of dismissal and
tho confirmation of his successor.
Mayor Moir, however, claims that
under tho decision handed down by
Judge Slrnonton in tho Harrlsburg
case, last week, the ruling under which
this city has been working 1b nega
tived, and in view of this ho will op
pose tho ox-chlef being granted his
claim.
The Harrlsburg decision was to the
effect that tho mayor can dismiss any
officer or employe whom he has author

PASSED HIGH OVER
HIS HONOR'S HEAD
ASPHALT REPAIR APPROPRIA
TION ORDINANCE A LAW.
Common Council, Following tho Ex
ample of tho Solectmen, Voto to
Override tho Mayor's Veto Thero
Was n Two-Third Majority with,
ono to Spare Chief-Elect Walkor's
Resignation la Presented nnd Ac
cepted Juno 17 Fixed as Dato of
Special Election.
Common council last night passed the
asphalt repair appropriation ordinance
high over the mayor's head, and It is
now n law. Tho vote was fifteen to
four, as follows:
Ayes-Messrs. Reese, Grlcr, Calpln,
Itunne. Zlzelmann. Tewkesbury, Nagell,
Phillips, Harvey, Wcnzel, Coleman, Smith,
Cuslck, Norton, Keller Jj.
Nays Messrs. Morris V. Morris, Grlf
flths, Watklna, T. F. Morris .
Absent Mr. Monaghan.
Mr. Walker, of the Fifth ward, who
has become chief of tho fire depart
ment, wns prevented from voting by
reason of his appointment.
Mr. Morris, of the Second ward, had
the temerity to mako an asphalt speech
In explaining his vote. Ho cried out
against the "giant octopus" a little bit,
and urged that the mayor should be
sustained In his veto. lie wns the
only onq who felt council needed any
more enllghtment on the question.
Tho veto came before the house un
der tho fifth order of business, which
council took up directly after conven
ing. Thero was no discussion and only
one Interruption, Mr. Morris' depart
ing fling at tho "black monster." When
the voto was announced Chairman
Keller, with evident satisfaction, de
clared tho measure a law, and added:
"Well, the agony is over."
Previous to tho consideration of the
asphalt measure Mr. Walker's resig
nation wns received ana accepted ana
Saturday, June 17, was fixed as the
date for holding the special election In
tho Fifth waul to choose his successor.
Tho resolution granting the Ontario
and Western Railroad company per
mission to cross certain streets with
Its Keyser valley branch was con
curred In and Is now ready for the
mayor's signature. Mr. Calpln was In
doubt as to tho legality of granting
this permission, save by an ordinance
and wanted the resolution referred to
committee. Very few votes favored
his proposition.
The asphalt repair contract Is now
ready for certification. Opponents of
tho measure havo said for Controller
Howell that he will not certify It even
with tho appropriation ordinance a
law. He, himself, however, has not
said what ho will do, preferring not to
commit himself in advance.
Mr. P. Ketcham. of Pike City, Cal.,
