ORDINANCE GIVEN
A DEATH BLOW
TELEPHONE COMPANY WILL
NOT SECURE FRANCHISE.
Select Council Decided That It Could
Not Consider the Ordinance Exoapt
Under a Suspension of the Rules,
as the Same Mattor Was Acted
Upon by Council Beforo This Year.
Refused to Suspend tho Rules.
Patrolman Martin Flaherty Re
moved from tho Force.
That common council ordinance
granting a frnnniiior, i. ..
na Telephone company, which caused
so much trouble slnco the last meeting
or select council, because of its mys
terlous disappearance, bobbed up last
night in select council and was given a
death-blow.
Under the head of concurrent busi
ness the ordinance, with ntvm.- nnn.mnn
council business, came before tho select
lor consideration. When It was read
by title, Mr. McCann called tho atten
tion of the chalrmnn to the fact that
a similar ordinance had been acted up
on heretofore this year, and under tho
rules council could not again go Into
the mattor. Chairman Williams de
cided that Mr. McCann's position was
correct and thereupon Mr. Lansing
took an appeal from the decision of tha
chair.
Mr. Chittenden insisted that such a
motion could not bo entertained and so
did- Mr. McCann, who eald the only
question council could consider was the
mutter of suspending the rules so as to
permit or consideration of the ordi
nance. After a debate, participated In
by Messrs. Finn, Koehe, McCann, Lans
ing and Chittenden, Mr. Itochc moved,
In order to bring the matter properly
to the attention of council, that the
rules be suspended.
"I won't vote for that motion," said
Mr. Roche, "but I think we ought to
get at this matter properly." The mo
tion was put and was defeated by the
following vote:
Yeas Koss, Finn, Wagner, Schneider,
Lansing 5.
Nays Thomas, Janes, Itoche, Mehin,
Chittenden, Shea, McCann, Fellows,
Schroeder, O'Boyle, Frable, Coyne, Will
iams 13.
That sealed the fate of the telephone
ordinance nnd council passed on to
the consideration of other business.
FLAHERTY REMOVED.
A communication from Mayor Molr
was read removing Patrolman Martin
Flaherty for cause and naming Thomas
M. Connery as his successor. The
communication was referred to the
select council for consideration with
out debate.
The following communication from
City Controller Howell was referred to
committee for consideration:

A margin of saving amounting to

reduction mado to tho city by tho Scran
ton Klectrlc Light and Heat company. I

proper heads of the departments, and
Mayor Molr, and It was understood by
both that transfers for Nos. 30 and 22
could not bo made.
I beg to Inform you that thesa addi
tional men nro now at work and that If
they aro continued on, a deficiency will
be created In the lire deoartment, for

Very respectfully,
Esdras Howell, City Controller,
MAYOR ASKED TO ACT.
Later In the meeting Mr, James in
troduced a resolution directing the
mayor to ascertain if there is any
money available for the purpose of
paying John F. Lynch and Robert Wil
lard, the recently appointed permanent
men of Eaglo and Crystal companies.
This proposition caused a good deal
of discussion and some of the coun
cllincn wanted to know what the may
or had to do with the matter anyway.
"The mayor knew there was no
money to pay these men when he ap
pointed them," replied Mr. James. "I
looked over the accounts with the
mayor not long orro and ho salil inn
there was no money available for this
purpose."
"The mayor should not appoint when
thero is no money to pay salaries,"
was Chairman Williams' comment as
council proceeded to vote on tho meas
ure. Tho resolution was adopted by
tho following vote:
Ayes Thomas, James, Roche, Chitten
den, Wagner. Shea, McCann, Fellows,
Lansing, Coyne, Frable, Wllllums-li.
Nays-Ross, Finn, Melvln, Schneider,
Schroeder, O'Boyle.
A petition was received from citizens
of the Fifth district of the First ward

other Improvements claimed for ob
tained. Tho communication was re
ferred to the Judiciary committee for
consideration.

upon the question of Increasing the
Indebtedness of the city $140,000, this
sum to be used in erecting a city
electric light plant nnd also providing
for tho issuance of bonds for the above
amount.
This ordinance Is practically Iden
tical with the one which was defeated
in common council in the early part of
the year nnd of which Sciect Council
man Melvln was the father. The new
ordinance last evening was referred to
the light nnd water committee, with
Instructions to report at the next meet
ing. The communication from City Con

A communication from City Clerk

EXPLOSIONS LAST EVENINO.
Were Caused by Firing of Dynamite
nt Plnst Furnace.
Several especially loud explosions
were heard nil over the city last even
ing between 11 nnd 12 o'clock and much
speculation was Indulged In regarding
their cause.
It seems that the bottom of one of
the largo furnaces at the Blast fur
nace burned out In the early part of the
afternoon and the molten Iron which
escaped flowed Into a sewer used for
carrying off the water, and, cooling,
clogged It up. Several heavy charges
of dynamite were accordingly exploded
to free the sewer and these explosions
were those which were heard.

Decision Readied by the
Striking Miners at
Old Forge.
HAD MEETING LAST NIGHT
Presence of the Deputies nnd Actions
on Their Part Which Tend to Mako
the Strikers Indignant Results in
tho Latter Deciding Upon a Dotor
mlned Stand If Something Does
Not Soon Intervene to Check the
Growing Indignation the Most Ser
ious Consequences Aro Not Un
likelyFour Arrests Yesterday by
tho Deputies Edward Jermyn to
Bo Arrested Today.
Unless something Intervenes within
the next couple of days to chock tho
indignation rising In the breasts of tho
Old Forge strikers at the conduct of
the deputies, there will be trouhle.
Woodshed is not Improbable and a
general tie up of the collieries of tha
whole region thereabouts l.s to be
feared.
Tho strikers would not allow any but
union men to attend last night's meet
ing. Even strikers wore debarred who
had not as yet been sworn In. and sev
eral who wanted to Join last night were
refused. A Tribune reporter who went
to the hall wns Invited to stay through
the meeting, but tho arrival of a party
of men who apparently comprised some
committee changed the complexion of
the meeting and instead of Its being
open, as was at first Intended, It was
made strictly Feuret, even to the ex
tremes Indicated above. An English
speaking striker stated to n Tribune
reporter at the close of the meeting
that It had been resolved to let no ln.vi
work at Jormyn's mine today.
The strikers say they will not do vio
lence, but there Is always the lurking
danger of an eruption under conditions
such as exist.
As to tho general tie-up, steps have
already been taken tn bring it about.
Last night the strikers were declaring
! that the miners of the Temple Iron
company's Duryea colliery and Conr.ell
& company's "William A." were only
waiting the word to turn otit and
help the Old Forge men win their
fight, by laying all the mines idle and
forcing the coal carrying companies
to Interfere In brl'-plng Jermyn
to tho strikers' terms.
4i Co.
THAINMEN SYMPATHIZE.
The train hands on the New York,
Susquehanna and Western branch
which Inns Old Forge have notified
the strikeis, so the laiter claim, tha:
they will refuse -to handle cars con
taining coal from the Jermyn collier
ies. This road receives the coal from
No. 2, which Is to be started up next
week. The Lackawanna takes the coal
from No. 1, where the effort Is now be
ing made to resume operations.
The developments of yesterday tend
to widen the breach between the oper
ators and the strikers. As was to be
expected, the latter re-doubled their
efforts to prevent men from taking
their places and even resorted, accord
ing to the company's statement, to
mild acts of violence to accomplish
their purpose.
At the conclusion of Wednesday
night's meeting a line of pickets was
formed to guard the paths leading to
the mine and prevent, It possible, tho
return of tho men who were at work
the day before and who had gone homo
for the night under the protection ot
tho deputies.
Encircling the company's property,
well within the strikers' line, were the
deputies, acting as pickets. Several
times during the night the strikers ap
peared to be gathering In groups and
the deputies felt called upon to fire
shots from their guns to disperse
them. They say they fired Into tho
ground, but, be that as ltnnay, the de
sired effect was obtained, for in each
Instance the strikers scattered and dis
appeared with all due haste.
THREE MEN ARRESTED.
During the early hours of the morn
In from 2 to G o'clock three arrests
were made at different times. Jncob
Marclnkawicz. John Zapka and Antonio
Glplnskl were found upon tho com
pany's property and taken into cus
tody. They were hold at the inlna
offlce until daylight, when they wer
loaded Into the company store wngon
and taken to this city. They were
charged with Inciting riot and intimi
dating workmen and given a hearing
beforo Alderman Millar. In default of
$1,500 ball they were committed to Jail.
Philip Schwartz, the Old Forge mer
chant, offered to become their bonds
man, but did not qualify.
Edward Jcrmyn, who Is directing af
fairs for the company at the sceno of
the trouble, disguised himself in the
garb of a miner and at early dawn
started to cross the plateau between
Hendham and the mine. As he nntlcl
pated, ho was halted by one of the
strikers' pickets, Ludwlg Leshlnskl,
who wanted him to turn back. When
Jermyn pushed on towards the mine,
the striker caught him by the arm and
tried to detain him, supposedly to argue
with him. Jermyn let go his (1st nt tho
striker and caused him to release his
grasp. Later he had Leshlnskl arrest
ed and Alderman Millar committed
him to the county Jail.
The strikers have retained Attorney
John II, Honner to prosecute a case
which thoy will Institute this morning,
eo they say, against Edward Jermyn
nnd three of tha deputies. It appears
they were In quest of one Frank Apple,
a Polish strike leader, and thought to
catch him at his house at midnight

Mollnskl's house on the "same street
and insisted on finding Apple there.
MOLINSKI FLED.
Mollnskl fled in terror, with nothing
on but his night clothes, and escaping
by way of tho cellar, crossed lots and
sought shelter at a neighbor's house.
He wns crouched on the front porch,
lightly tapping at tho door to attract
his neighbor's attention nnd gain en
trance, when Edward Jermyn, so It U
alleged, came up the street carrying a
lamp secured at Mollnskl's house and
detected the fugitive. Covering Molln
skl with his revolver, ho held him at
"hands up" until the deputies came to
the scene and discovered that they had
the wrong mnn. Apple has not yet been
apprehended.
At the strikers meeting last night
these matters were discussed and mucn
indignation wns expressed.
Tho strikers claim that most of their
members are working almost full time,
the nearby coal companies being able
to make ulaccs for them by reason of
the blrt demand for coal.
Edward .Tormvn stated to n Tribune
reporter last evening that this claim Is
correct nnd that thnt Is one of the
principal reasons why the men are not
returning to their old places In greater
numbers. He is satisfied, he says, that
when they realize that tho mine Is to
work permanently they will give up
their temporary places at the adjoin
ing collieries and return to their own
chambers.
Four of the old miners asked to have
a wagon sent for their tools at a near
by mine, where they are temporarily
employed, as they intended to go back
to their old Jobs this morning.
SWALLOWED A SHAWL PIN
Little Anclrow Lopata of Jcrmyn la
Now In tho Lackawanna
Hcrrdtal.
About six weeks ago little Andrew
Lopata, the two and a half year old
child of Mike lopata of Jermyn, while
playing aiottnd the house managed to
get hold of a shawl pin. Ho played
with it awlille, and then swallowed It,
head ltrst The shaft of the pin was
about three Inches long, and its
bend wns about throc-qiiaiters of an
Inch across, and made of black ctiamal.
Soon fter this the child began to
cough badly and give general symp
toms of having lung trouble. Two
days ago the child was bi ought to this
I cltv and taken to thoLackawanna hos
pital. The little fellow was put under
the X rays and It was discovered by
means of the flurorscope that the pin
was lodcrei) In the right bronchial tube,
with the bead In tho lung tissue.
An X-ray picture was tnjten, and
developed, which shows plainly the lo
cation nf the pin. Altos-Hit the case
Is a very serl.ius and delicate one, and
the utmost caution must be used In
handling It.
There is n probability that a council
of physlclnrq will be held to determine
the advisability of operating upon the
cniid to remove the pin. In the mean-
