Since he has been temporary iiispcndeil from nctlvi duty burglarlea have still hem committed. Tho Nettle ton house was again entered the othet night and other i evidences on tho hill have received slmllir visits It Is rather n pity that Instead of surrounding Mr O Lcar and taking him to Jail In one Ml Mvoop, he had not been shadowed a llttlo longer and tracked to his lair. Tho poor dogs are having u doleful time of It. The muzzle business is about ns absurd n- an, thing that could well bo devised Muzzles nio put on tho animals who aro well behaved and well cared lor and which do not need sueh a re straint, whilo tho mangy, wretched curn belonging to nobody and n menace to oveijbodv aro the one3 to go free. Somo of tho lino dogs have been gieatly af- lllcted iiurlng the past rew aajs One pointer was observed to btaiul on hi-, head for a period of several minutes in n vain effort to rid himself of tho hate, ful muzzle. Then ho lifted up his voice and mourned aloud In tones designed to Klvo a shudder to the superstitious dwell ers In the neighborhood. A beautiful collie, who had never before been thus adorned, lied to the dnrkest coiner under the nranda. lefuulng to lie .comforted md would neither eat nor drink until tha family convinced him that the bvlgo of disgrace should bo removed I'or tho past two days every member of the household, from he servants to tho mats. ler, has spent the chief part of the time In watching his dogshlp to see that ho doesn't get out of tho yard Tho average dog In a muzzle presents n, very mkUh, dlsrtputnble appearance. None of these Instruments of toiture has been Invented that will stny lu the proper position, oi that Is in tho least degree comfortable for tho poor panting -victims. The snap things, which seem to be the least objectionable aro Invail ably awr In the courbo of five minutes' use. The middle strap usually nets as a cundaRe over tho left eyo and the buckles ret adjusted on tho wiong bumps and If tho doi; every had any possible excuse for going mad it would bo thus torment ed when he Is unable, to toll out his henlthy, red tonguo and per3plio accord ing to his nntnrc. A lady helped to Interfere with the ma jesty of tho law tho other day. A dog catcher was on tho chaso after a fat, frightened dog, who was fleeing u; Washington avenue Tho oflicer wasn't ou expert with his lasso nn he probably nlll be by the time tho enforcement of tho ordlnanco grown so obnoxious that the citizens will make a protest, and tho ainliruU nover qultn camo within tho proper distance Tho lady In question was much excited over the pursuit nnd without reentd to consequences, she clapped her hands and "sicked" the dog on cnthuflastlcally abetting him to es-' capo, which ho did, up nn nlloy, to the uproarious delight of tho throng which law tho performance and gibed ut the "cnlrhpr."

Delaware and Hudson Company Shuts Off a Thoroughfare. People living on Poplar street, in Pine Brook, have called Street Com missioner O'Boyle's nttention to a fence that has been elected by the Delaware and Hudson company, cutting- off that thoroughfare at the eastern side of the rallioad. The stieet 1st not open on the west ern side of the tracks and there Is i question If a street exists thoio. Mr. O'Boyle Is looking into the matter and will have the fence lemoved If ho finds that It Is built on or blocks off a city street. Inquliy at the land ofTlce of tho De' aware and Hudson company brought forth the statement that there- Is no street west of the tracks and that the fence Is on pilvate property. The street leads to the site of the new bolt and nut woiks and that con cern will very likely want to put in a grade crossing there.

Tho Ions delayed and anxiously awaited report of County Auditors A. H. Klefei, V. L. Ward and P. W. Cos tello was filed with the court yester duy.

To tho honorable, the Judges of the court of common pleas of Lacka wanna county: We, the undersigned nudltois, beg to submit, together with the subjoined audit of the accounts of the county commissloneis of the expense Incuned for remodelling the court house, the following report: In the summer of 1S9C tho lcmodel llng of the court houso was begun and the work continued until late In 1S97, for which the gross amount expended, as shown by tho vouchers of tho county commissloneis, was $149,515 40. This work was provided for In pant by con ttacts under which seveial contractois clalmetl and received, In nddltlon to the contract price, extras to the amount of $31.5IC 00, going to make up the above stated total. In some instances, no contracts appear to have been made. In one Instance, viz.. the Interior fin ish and decoration of the Superior couit room, no effort appeals to have been made to secure a contract, but the work was done at the Instance of the com missloneis 1 a firm known as James T. Hnll & Co, of New Yotk, who wero authorized to do the work at cost, with ten per cent, additional chaige for profit. The- ilrst conti act awauled was for the steel loof and was given to tho Berlin lion Brldgo company at .'0,000. What Is Known as the principal con tract wa3 afterwards awarded to Con rad Schrooder, covering the masonry and carpenter work, at $01,457 A con tract was awarded to James T. Hall ft Co. for decoration of couit room No 1 at $I,J50; another to J. B. McCoy for electikal fixtures for $1,S00, another to Hunt & Council for plumbing, etc., for $4,9SL All of these contracts are claimed by the county commissioners to have been aw aided to the successful bidder anions several competitive bids. These bids are not on Hie In the com missioners' ofllce and cannot be found, and the only evidence of such bids are the minutes kept In the county com missioners' minute-book, except In the case of Hunt & Connell bid for the plumbing, one letter is found referring to an alleged proposal of a date a few aas earner than .the letter FIGURES IN DETAIL. The amount of these contiacts a well as of tho extra woik, the number of vouchers, tho amount and elate of payments, total cost, classification and name of bidder Is shown bj tabulated statements hereto attached. There have been submitted to the auditors for approval claims embody ing the contracts and bills of extras from the several contractors amount ing to something more than the total above stated; from this certain deduc tions wero made by the county com missloneis and remitted, leaving a net payment as shown by the wan ants diawn on the county treasurer by the commissioners or $ny,rii&.4l). The auditors havo thus far from the papers submitted to them found It im possible to ascertain positively what Items go to make up the difference be tween the two amounte. We have found It neoessnry 'to have the assist ance of legal advice and have bi ought beforo us by subpoenas all of the wit nesses who could be expected to lie able to Identify or explaln tho pa ments that seem to be open to eiues tlon. Wo have called upon the county commissioners for the pioduction of all papets In any way i elating to the ex penditures We have also compelled the pioduction of plans, maps ami diawing.s which were In tho possession of B. T. Lacey, the acting architect of the work under tho firm name of T. I. Lacey & Son. It is possible that some of the Hi ms disallowed by us may be Included In the deductions which were made by the county commissioners either on their own motion or nt the Instance of Mr. I.accy, 'the aichltect. because In many Instances we have found that neither the county commissioners nor tho ar chitect could Identify or explain what certain deductions coveted or for what reason they were made. If an Item For the convenience and accommodation of our patrons, we have introduced an improved telephone service, having a di rect and separate in strument for receiv ing, which will avoid any delay. E. Q. Coursen Phone 8542. Notice ized statement of these deductions had been kept by the county commission ers nnd submitted to the auditors, much time, trouble nnd expense would have been saved. This report was duo In December, ISIS, but for want t suf ficient Information to be had In the county commissloneis' olllce the audi tors have been compelled to go over n great deal of ground nnd consume a great deal of time In their effort to as ceitnln the facts neicssaiy to an In telligent auditing tif these accounts, and have reached the irsttlt herewith shown as speedily as possible under tin clicumstnnccs. HAD TO CHANGE PIANS. It appeals that when the commission ers planned the remodelling and lecon etructlon of the e'ourt house they de termined, for the sake of economy, not to disturb certain portions of 'the build ing, consldeilng that tho oilglnal con struction would answer all put poses, but from developments during the pro gress of tho work It was ascertained that to secure strength, duiabillty, sanitation, architectural effeet, etc., U would be necessary to mnk the changes and this accounts for a con siderable amount of the extra woik chntged for. The plumbing and gas-fitting wero not publicly advertised and It appears from the testimony of dlifeiont hlddeis that two separate sets of specifications weie In existence, one ot vvhlih con tained gas-IIMIng and tho other omitted it This tttnlemeut serins to bo home out by an examination of the bids, oi rather the books kept by tho compet itive blddets, known as estimate books. The architect lefused to certify tho bill for gas-lltting rendered by the Hunt &. Connell conipanv until after the coninil-slnneis had s'ccun d an opin ion fiom the county solicitor advising Its payment. The atidltnir give In detail the rea sons for the Mitlous surcharge's They contend that a good deal of the woik cluirgi'd as 'Vxtias" nnd for which ad ditional compensation was allowed by the commissioners was Included In tho specifications und the contractois were not entitled to anv thing In the way of ndditlonnl compensation for this. The nudltois report the following amounts due tho county by tax collectors- 1V97, VG.370 13: 18'in, $7,17109, 1W, $90.7.V 1S01, $109 33 These amounts nre subject to exonerations and commissions. Count Treasurer C II. Kchndt began the fiscal year 1S97 with $"7,S93.59 In tho trtasuiy and dining the year received $120,113.21. Dining the year 1S97 he paid out $312 113 'i2, leaving a halarco in his hands to turn over to his suc cessor, M. J. Kelly, of $35,093.01. Aside from the surcharges noted above, the auditors find the accounts of the county olllcers conect. CONTRACT IS SIGNED.

L. K. Torbet, a Chicago Tin Plato Mnnufactuier, Believes Scranton an Exceptionally Pavorablo Placo for Such nn Industry and Is Will ing to Back His Belief with 325, 000 Board of Trade to Bo Inter ested in the Matter An Exhaus tive Report Will Bo Made. Tin plate Is now the battle cry of the board of trade. Having settled satis factorily the bolt nnd nut question, tho decks are clear for n new campaign, and It Is tho purpose ot the redoubt able secretary, Captain Athertoti, to 'nter upon and push one with his char acteristic vigor. 11a had his mind firmly set on reviv ing the tin plate movement that wna eai three years ago and which was re suscitated tor a time last year, and hud about matured planH for getting the matter before the people In Invit ing shapi, when along comes a letter from a Chicago tin plate man, L. K. Tot bet, offering to establish a plant In Scinnton nnd subscribe the first $25,000 for the organisation of a stock com pany to back the enterprise. Scranton, ho ays, offers special In- ducements for the manufacture of tin i plate and to his mind a modest nnd not ver expensive plant could be made te expand Into olio of the biggest In dustilcs of the countiy. In other cities whete the conditions for tin plate manufacture ate not nearly so favoiable as they aro In Scranton, th manufacturers are mak ing from thirty to fifty per cent, on their Investment and have been doing It for years. Scranton, Mr. Torbet thinks, ought to make as big a profit as any of thorn. Mr. Toibot Is tho same gentleman who was discussed as manager of tho Scranton tin plate factory when the agitation was on three yeais ago. That he Is sanguine of the success of a luc tory here Is attested by Ills willingness to back the enterprise with his own money to tho extent of $23,000. Secretary Atherton has a lot of tin plate data at hand nnd as soon as he can put It together In presentable shape, w HI submit It to the board of trade, through the manufacturers' committee. When the bonrd recon venes In September a comprehensive report on tin plate with lecommenda tlons arc likely to be one ot the mat ters the manufacturers' committee will have to present ns evidence that It was not Idle even during dog days.
