DISCUSSED LEADINtt QUESTIONS
Young Men's Forum Has nn Interest
InR and Profitable Evening.
Tho Young Men's Forum held thel;
regular meeting last night In tho
Guernsey building. In a quiz on cur
rent topics by P. 0. Uaker, 13. S., the
colonial department nnd management
ot tho new colonics, was thoroughly
discussed by Messrs. Sholl nnd Trlcf.
Tiro latest phase of the situation In
South Africa was taken up by C. Zim
merman and I.. Carter. Owing to tho
many complications In which the Eu
ropean nations are nt present Interest
ed It was concluded that European In
tervention In the Transvaal would bu
probable. Oeorge C. Swltzer gave a
very Interesting recltntlon and u pa
p.iper on "The Spanish Character" jva
rend by Mr. Albert K. Sholl.
In a debute, "Resolved, That Cities
Should Own and Control the Fran
chises Generally Granted to Private
Corporations," Attorney Vv. J. Doug
lass nnd F. A. Kaiser argued for th?
nfllrmntlve. Aiie negative was up
held by A. K. Sholl and K. M. C. Mlch
atel. Uotlr sides were thoroughly pre
sented with Illustrations and statistics.
The Judges, rtnlph Weeks. G. Swltzer
and Truman Surdam, gave their deci
sion In favor of tho negative.
AS TO OFFICERS PAY.
Mr. Vosburg Believes That Hocken-
berry and Davis Became Retjular
Patrolmen When Appointed.
Appended Is the opinion of City Sol
icitor A. A. Vosburg on the question
submitted to him by City Controller
Ksdras Jlowoll regarding the pay of
Patrolmen Hockenherry anil Davis. I
These patrolmen were nominated by ,
Mayor Molr August 18, but were not
confirmed by select council until last j
Thursday. For forty days of the In
teilm a bill was submitted for their j
pay as speclal'onicers. under appoint-'
ment of the major for ten day period3.
This bill was approved by tho mayor.
The controller asked the solicitor to
enlighten him ns to how he should pay
them, ns regular or speclul ofllcers. The
solicitor's answer follows:
be union, Nov. 7, 1SD9.
Ksdras Howell, etij., City Controller.
Dear Sir: Replying to your communi
cation of tho 3d Ir.st., with respect to
tho right of compensation of Police Of
llcers David J. l)als and W. S, llock
enberry, I would bay. that, of course,
these ofllcers cannot collect as special
and regular olhcers, and therefore it 13
necessary to consider, first, whether they
aro entitled to compensation as regular
police officers of this city.
In nn opinion previously furnished by
me, I held that under tho provisions of
Article 7. Section 4, of the net of May
St, 1SSJ. P. L. 277, police ofllcers could
only be rcmrved by the mayor, "by and
with the advice nnd consent of the select
council." The same ml' applies to tho
appointment of iioH"? officers" under the
section to which 1 have referred.
The mayor of the city of Seranton sent
n. communication to the select council
removing Officers Dyer and Saul, nnd np
polntlng David J. Davis and Wells S.
Hockenherry as police Olivers, to fill tho
position of tho po'Ico officers removed.
At flrht, the select council refused to
concur In this action of the mayor, but
afterwards, on Nov. 2, D3, action was
taken by that body concurring both in
the removal of Officers Dyer and Saul,
and the appointment of Officers Davis
and Hoekenbcrry.
From tho time of their removal bv the i
maor. Officers Dyer nnd Saul did not J
actually perform any work as police of- i
fleers, but the newly appointed officers.
Davis and Hoekerberry, at once entered i
upon te duties of their nppolntmcut, and I
have, served as police officers from that
time to tho present.
Although the action of the mayor in
appointing and removing pollco officers
.lflrtn .n, ln.AK.A ft. 11. n,V.iA,.nl .....It 1. A
llVJVa IIUl UUIill' 1U1..V VI. t l....i till, II ,V3 I
advice and consent of the select coun- I
ell Is obtained, yet. In my opinion, the j
mayor Is the appointing and removing
power. As was said In the case of Lane !
npnlnst Commonwealth, 103, Pa. page ISI, ,
"whenever nnd wherever the constitu
tion bpenks of the appointing power, it
recognizes it ns being vested In tho gov- i
ernnr. Nowhere does It declare that the j
senate can appoint." j
With eeiual force can It be said that
nr.whem in the act of 1SS0, is there a pro
vision that tho select council may up
point nnd remove. Tho mayor Is essen
tially the a pointing rind removing pow- ,
er. and the duties of the select council
are limited to ndv.ee and conrent to such
action. This being the cr.se, I nm of the
opinion that when i:n appointment or re
moval by the major Is approved by the
i lect council, it becomes operative as of
the date when such cctlon was taken
by tho mayor: nnd that therefore, ns i
the matter now stands, the appointment
I of Officers Davis and IlncKei.bcrry, and
the removal of Officers Dyer jmd Saul,
1 taken effect on the day when Hip mayor
appointed nnd removed these officers,
i I mav add, that I am unable to llnd any
I case In which this riccli-e question has
beer, ruled, but upon principle, I believe
i my conclusion Is correct.
I Furthermore, as tinted above, tho ac
t tual work appertaining to the of
1 lice of policeman has been performed by
, Officers Davis and Hoekenbcrry, who nro
new claiming compensatlm, while Of-
fleers Haul and Der have performed no
i work whatever for the city during that
j period.
I It Is stated In I') Amcr. & Kng. l'ncy
of Law. page 31, that "No claim ran bo
brought for the salary or perquisites of
rev has agreed to, nlthough the formal
supplementiil ttnreernent l.ns not vet heen
ttlpd. I cannot snv when ibis case
stated will be nrTiied. Mr. Trrey and
mvself nskrd that It be heard thli week,
but thn members of the court woro too
buiv uron other matters to hear It at
this tlmo.

VIOLENT
DEATH OF
ZELINSKI
Thomas J. Foley Is
Charged with
Murder.
IS IN THE COUNTY JAIL
Ho Is a Hotel Keeper of Priceburg
and a Well-known Citizen of That
-PlaceFriends of Zelinskl Allefra
That Foley Shoved Him Down tho
Steps in Front of Fndden's Hotel
nnd That Because of tho Push
Zelinskl Received the Injuries from
Which He Died.
Frank Zelinskl died ht a very myster
ious manner last evening at Prlceburg
nnd Thomas J. Foley, proprietor of
Fadden's hotel, that borough, Is nt the
county Jail charged with being respon
sible ror his death.
Zelinskl Is about 21 years of age
and resided with his parents. From
what could be gathered last night he
was around drinking all day yester
day and got Into several minor scrapes.
About 7.45 o'clock last night ho came
to Fadden's hotel, which Is located
nt the corner of Main nnd Storrs
street, In a state of intoxication.
Foley, William Shea, his father-in-law,
and John McGowan, a young man
of the village, were slttlngiln tho front
room of the hotel nt the time and, ac
cording to the story of the last two,
Foley went out and ordered the man
away. The latter refused and started
to enter tho hotel, asking for a drink.
REFUSED A DRINK.
Foley refused him n drink nnd again
ordered him away and, according to
the story told by Shea and McGowati,
the man turned on him with a vile
expression. Foley thereupon shut the
door In the man's face. McGowan
says that he then lurched down the
front steps and fell, striking hl3 back
on the edge of the porch.
He Immediately became un-onsclous
and quite a crowd gathered. Several
went for physicians and Dr. Myers
responded. The man was almost df.nd
when he arrived, however, and he
passed nway before medical attention
could be given him.
Dr. Myers made a currory examina
tion, but was unable to discover any
fracture of tho skull. He Is Inclined
to tho belief that death was caused by
alcohnl'sm. It bclntr well known that
Zelinskl has been a Irani drinker for
years past. The doctor Is not thor
oughly satisfied with this and siys the
exact cause c.v; only be determined
when Coroner Roberts, who has been
notified, makes a post-mortem examin
ation today.
About an hour after the death of
Zelinskl, Foley was placed under arrest
chnrged with being responsible for tho
man's death. The warrant was Issued
by 'Soulre Williams on Information
furnished by several ot the relatives
of the dpceasd, who allege that Foley
threw 7cllnskl out of the hotel. Ha
Tas arraigned before the 'squire, who
committed him to the county Jail
without ball and he was brought to this
city and locked up latrs last evening.
'FOLEY WELL KNOWN.
His friends aro not only surprised
but many of them are exceedingly)
angry at h's arrest nnd commitment,
and the facts to be learned last evening
certainly bear them out In this stand.
Foley Is well known In t'ds city, having
been bartender at thi Grand Central
hotel for a number of yenrs.
Coroner Roberts will Investigate the
case this morning nnd will probably
decide to hold an Inquest.
THE DIXIE BENEFIT.
An Exceptionally Fine Entertain
ment Given Last Night in the
St. Luke's Parish House.
A large audience enjoyed the delight
ful entertainment given In compliment
to Mr. and Mis. Harry F. Dixie last
evening at Rt. Luke's parish house.
The affair was managed by a commit
tee consisting of Messrs Jumes Gard
ner Sanderson, James Rlulr, Jr.. TJ. W.
Holland, Ralph A. Williams and H. IJ.
Merrill and went off much mor.j
smoothly than the uvernge first night
of a profeslonal drrma under the most
favorable circumstances. People left
the house after tho performance con-i
gratulating each other on the splendid
talent possessed by Seranton and p n
tlcularly was the clever dramatization
of Mr. James Gardner Sanderson the
subject of great praUe.

much ot tho success of the evcnlnir In
her plnno accompaniments. Miss Graco
Spencer scored n nattering triumph
both with her dramatic work and her
beautiful solo nt the finale.
Miss Richmond played tho overture
which woe followed by n pretty llttlo
sketch given with much spirit and
laste by Mr. und Mrs. Dixie nnd called
"My Aunt's Legacy." The Intermezzo
was a solo by Ralph A. Williams, who
sang with excellent effect and was
heartily encored. Mr. and Mrs. Dlxlo
also gave an original musical comedy
entitled "My Sweetheart," which con
tained a ntiii.Vr of bright specialties
Including n bep-ringlng number, very
well performed Indeed, and solos by
both performers which were enthusias
tically applauded.
The greatest hit of the evening wis
made In "The Chance of the Season"
tho little play adapted by Mr. Sander
son. The stage was prettily set and
two fair maldp. Miss Anderson and
Miss Spencer were discovered seated
at the tea table where the kettle was
boiling for a social cup of tea. Bolh
ladles presented a most attractive ap
pearance. Miss Anderson wore n
charming blue gown which was espec
ially becoming to her tall graceful fig
ure. Miss Pppncor was handsomely
gowned In eld rose.
The plot nt the sketch lies In the con
fession of Miss Dale (Miss Spencer) to
her friend of other years, Mrs. Jack
Cielghton In the pel son of Miss An
derson, regauling a love affair by
which she had discarded the man, to
whom she was devotedly attached be
cause of certain statements discredit
able to him which had been made to
her by a Close friend of hia. She still
loved him although he had married
another.
Shn does not confess that tho other
Is the friend to uhom sho Is talking at
the opening of the scene. Mrs. Crelgh
ton Is advising her to ncccpt a rich
ottltor. Her hostess is called from tho
room and Jack Crelghton (Mr. James
Sanderson) soon enters and Is greatly
surprised to find there his bweothoart
of a few years before. few words
of mutual recrimination bring out
explanations, which shows the terrible
mistake which has been mado nnd re
veals the perfidy of Crclghton's friend.
As the young lady Is being urged by
her former lover to accept him on th
former footing nnd as she Is wildly re
fusing to blight another's life, Mrs.
Crelghton emters and the well kept se
cret comes out to the effect that Jack
Crelghton the lover Is not her husband
but her husband's cousin of the same
name.
In the finale Miss An.1or.son did sorm
clever work In both attitude and ex
pression. Miss Spencer dlsplaved all
the abilities which her friends have
long known she possesses In tho realm
of histrionics, and Mr. Sinderson's de
lineation ot a difficult role and ono
likely to be overdone, was artistic to
n degree.
It Is to bo hoped that other dramatics
productions from his pen will be seen
In tho near future.

MISS DUNN'S LECTURE.
Listened to by a Large Audience at
the Bicycle Club House Exhi
bition of Her Water Colors.
That Seranton people like art lec
tures Is not to bo disputed. In the
past seven days three lectures by as
many different speakers on subjects of
artistic interest, have been delivered In
this city, and in every Indtace bpfo-o
i large audiences mado up of leadl-g
representatives ot culture and Intelli
gence. Last night at the Bicycle club one of
tho finest assemblages of the season,
despite many attractions elsewhere,
listened to Miss Emeline A. Dunn aid
enjoyed the exhibition of water colors
which she presented.
J. II. Torrey made a characteristic
ally happy address, Introducing Miss
Dunn, In which he said that the people
present had come there to travel with
her, commenting or the fact that ladles
usually travel In order to get away
from domestic science, but on thU oc
casion the travel was In the Interest of
that science, as the lectures were for
the benefit of a cooking clasi at th
Toung Women's Chr'stlan association.
Miss Du' n had also offered to dup'l

sime object.
Miss Cordelia Freeman sang a beau

tho collection was made largely with
an educational purpose, as she had
long ago discovered that children learn
color hr.it from actual objects In nat
ural tints and are more lnteret',d In
colored pictures than In black and
white representations.
Jll Dir n's water polor work Is
characterized by excellent technique
and a faithful, delicacy of touch, a
tender gamut of color that strikes no
harsh notes. She has a surprising ver
ratlllty ranging from soft, pastvl-i'ke

A BIGJLEGAL FIGHT
MT. PLEASANT COAL CO. PITTED
AGAINST LACKAWANNA.

Company from Interfering with tho
Coal Company's Construction of an
Overhead Bridge. Across the For

Out of tho Ontario and Western's
Bid for a Bigger Shnvo of the Coal
Carrying Business.
Seldom docs a law suit have such
an array of prominent witnesses nil
those who were present yesterdny lu
the surerlor court room to glvo testi
mony In the equity casj of tho Mt.
Pleasant Coal compnny against the
Delaware, Lnckawanna ond Western
Railroad compnny, which Judge Arch
bald called frr a hearing Just after the
noon adjournment.
W. F. Hallstead, second vice-president;
E. K Loomls, superintendent of
mining; A. C. .ali-bury, division su
perintendent: Garret Rosert, tomier
superintendent; James Archblld, form
er chief engineer and John Snyder,
chief mining engineer, were some of
the officials and ex-omclnls of tho Lack
awanna who were numbered In this ar
ray. D. L. Fuller, president of tho
Ml. Pleasant company, Edward Meirl
flcld, A. S. Jones ex-Alderman John
Cowley, Domlnlck Healey and a num
ber of the old time miners who worked
nt the Mt. Pleasint In Its earliest days
were other of the witnesses.
RECORD TESTIMONY.
The testimony yesterday was mainly
of a rceord character, the plaintiff re
lying mainly on deedM and like con
veyances to establish Its contention.
The defendnnt will present about twen
ty witnesses to give oral testimony and
It Is probable the case will consume
all of today and a good portion of to
morrow. The suit grows out of the determin
ation of tho Mt. Pleasant company ti
divert Its shipments from tho Lack
awanna to the Ontario nnd Western.
Its breaker Is on the westerly side of
the Lackawanna tracks, and the On
tario nnd Western spur which will
take the coal to the main line Is to
have Its tcrnrlnnl at chutes to bo erect
ed on tho opposite side.
To carry tho coal from tho breaker to
tho chutes It Is proposed to construct
a bridge over the tiacks which will
support a sei les of belt conveyors. The
Lackawanna company denies the right
of the plaintiff to cross its right of way
In this manner and also contends that
the present narrow bridge connecting
the breaker and dump must be re
moved by January 1, l!00, when tho
shipping contract between the two
companies expires.
The Lackawannna company nvera
that the plaintiff has no rights in tho
premises excepting those It enjoys
through the sufferance of the Lacka
wanna. It claims that the present culm
bridge was permitted to be erected
solely In consideration nf the contract
between the two companies and that
when tho contract expires tho right to
the ovcrheatl crossing lapses.
PLAINTIFF'S CONTENTION.
The Mt. Pleasant company denies
any such understanding and hnldn
that Its predeccssois In title to the Mt.
Pleasant property, owned the present
Lackawanna right of way and in dis
posing of It to the Lackawanna stipu
lated that It should hold It for railroad
purposes only. It Is also contended by
tho plnlnMff that the. franchise of tho
Lackawanna prescribes that wherever
its tracks divide a properly the ownsr
shall have nn overhead right of way,
to be erected at the expense of tha
railroad company.
Further than this, the plaintiff com
pany contends It had a rignt of way
at grade over the tracks and miln
talncd It for years, abandoning It only
In consideration of the overhead right
of way.
