THEY ARE GETTING READY
Water Bate Matter Is to Be Taken
Up nt Once by the Board of
Trade Committee.
The committee, consisting of James
II. Torrey, T. II. Dale and J. A. Lans
ing, nppointed by the board of trade
to deal with the water rate question,
expect to get together tomorrow or
Friday to formulate plans for carry
ing out Its Important task. Previous
business engagements prevent an ear
lier meeting.
In the intetlm, Mr. Torrey, chairman
of tho committee, will look Into the
law In the case, thnt he may be able
to present It readily when the com
nilttee comes together.
From the oft-hand opinions given
at the board of trade meeting Monday
night it would appear that tho city
need expect to gain little by recourse
to the courts and still less from the
agitation for an Independent company.
No one could be found by a Tribune
reporter sufficiently enlightened on
the subject to give a definite opinion,
but it wns found the belief is general
that, Inasmuch ns the Scranton Gns
and Water company's Invested capi
tal Is so extensive It would bo easy
for the company to show that Its earn.
Ings are comparatively small, in which
case the courts would be powerless to
order a reduction in the rates, and
competition would be barred under the
special charter giving tho company nn
exclusive franchise ns long as Its un
divided profits are not more than eight
per cent.
The exact scope of the charter in
th' latter regard Is a somewhat open
question among the lawyers, because
of the fact that there has been so
many and varied decisions on water
company's rights since tho time the
charter was granted.
Tho board of trade eonrtnlttee will,
however, strive to clear up all these
vague questions nnd have the matter
presented in such shape that the board
will know nt a glance where it Is at,
and how It must proceed to effect the
desired result.

told the Jurors that in nny event they
were to find for Mrs. Fahrlg for one
half the ammount claimed by her with
interest. Ho submitted to tho Jury tho
other half of tho claim with reference
to which tho statute of limitation was
urged, Tho Jury after being out for
hnlf an hour returned a verdict for tho
full amount of the defendant's claim,
DEFENDANT DID NOT APPEAR.
Immediately after tho Fahrfb case

liam Price was reported settled and

tiff In the sum of $29D.03 was rendered.

pany. The case was put on trial Mon
day. There was no defense offered In tho
caFe of J. Kaufman against A. Bres
chel and a verdict of $119.85 for the
plaintiff was taken.
SUIT AGAINST CITY.
Before Judge Purdy tho trial ot the
case of Mrs. Jane Reap against tho
city of Scranton consumed a good part
of yesterday's session. Mrs. Reap
owns a property on West Market street
close to the bridge spanning Leach's
creek, and she alleges that through
the negligence of the city In falling to
deep a drain open her place has been
repeatedly flooded and made almost
uninhabitable. The house Is below the
level of the street.
The city alleges that the husband of
the deceased, Michael Reap, before his
death recovered $S00 damages from the
city for the Injuries for which his
widow now wants to recover. The t
jury will go to Providence this morn-'
lng and view the premises.
Before Judge R. W. Archbald In the
main court 100m yesterday the case of
Mrs. Matilda Fahrlg, administratrix,
against Eugene Schlmpff was tried nnd
a verdict returned In favor of Mrs.
Matilda Fahrlg for $2,091.91, the full
amount of her claim, with interest.
Both plaintiff and defendant reside
In this city, Mr. Schlmpff being en
gaged In tho Jewelry business, and prior
to the trouble which resulted In yes
terday's lawsuit, the two families were
on very Intimate terms. The case was
tried several months ago and the Jury
dlsugreed. The plaintiff was repre
sented yesterday by Attorneys George
S. Horn and C. II. Soper, and tho de
fendant by Attorneys James H. Tor
rey and Joseph O'Brien.
From what was brought out on tho
trlnl of the case yesterday it appears
that In 1S90 the plaintiff's husband
died, leaving his financial affairs in
rather bad shape. Pome time before
his death he bought a lot on Clay ave
nue In this city from Jacob Bryant, but
it was not paid for and after his death
his wife applied to tho Orphans' court
for permission to sell tho propcrty.with
a view to getting tho estate In bettei
shape. The recessary permission was
given and the property was sold by
Mrs. Fahrlg, as administratrix, to Mr.
Schlmpff for $1,SC0. Some time later
Mr. Schlmpff secured a deed from Mrs.
Fahrlg, but the purchase money was
never paid and yesterday's suit was for
the purpose of collecting It with Inter
est. WHAT DEFENSE SAID.
The defense attempted to show that
tho sale was made In nursuanco to an
arrangement between Mrs. Fahrlg and
Mr. Schlmpff, he merely acting as trus
tee to protect the value of the land.
Ho alleges that tho understanding was
that ho was to sell tho land again nnd
turn the proceeds over to Mrs. Fahrlg.
Ho did sell the land, but did not se
cure as high a price for It as he bid
at the Orphans' court sale. Ho offered
to turn this amount over to Mrs. Fah-
tig, but sho would not nccept It, alleg
ing that she wnnted the amount he hid
at the Orphans' court sale. Court
would not admit evidence of this kind,
on the ground that Mrs. Fahrlg had
no power to enter Into such nn agrce
moit as that suggested by Mr.
Schlmpff.
Debarred from this" defense, tho at
torneys for Mr. Schlmpff raised tho
point that tho statute of 'Imitations
barred the collection of one-half of the
amount claimed. To offset this tho
plaintiff offered testimony of admis
sions on the part of Mr. Schlmpff that
would sot aside tho statutory rights.
Can't Stand Cold
Many children can't
stand cold weather. The
sharp winds pierce them,
and the keen air hurts them.
They have cold after cold,
lose flesh, and spring-time
finds them thin and delicate.
will make such boys and
girls hearty and strong. The
body is better nourished,
and they are better pro
tected. The blood becomes
richer, and that makes them
warmer.

admissions.
Two Opinions Handed Down.
Judge Archbald handed down an
opinion yesterday in the case of tho
Lackawanna Trust nnd Safe Deposit
company against the Scranton Lace
Curtain company, In which he directs
that nn Issue be awarded In which the
firm of Crelghton & Birch shall be the
plaintiffs and Stephen Chappel the de
fendant. Judge Archbald also handed down an
opinion in the case of Naegll and Tlel
assigned to J. W. Guernsey against T.
F. Connell. The latter was a tenant of
Guernsey and conducted a livery stable
which was run on the instalment plan.
Connell retired from the business and
alleged that Guernsey assumed several
bills, among them one for feed owing
to Naegll and Teal.
Judge Archbald said: "We are not
Inclined to nicely 'balance the question
whether or not this Is a case of oath
against oath requiring a substantial
corroboration of the deforciant to en
title him to the relief asked for. Even
If wo should throw out tho defendant's
application It would not necessarily end
the controversy, for he would still be
entitled to sue for breach of tho agree
ment, and we may ns well end tho
matter once for all by giving him an
opportunity, without further recours",
to make good his contention, Tho rule
Is made absolute, the Judgment opened
and an Issue awarded, tho Judgment to
stand as a declaration, the defendant
pleading payment and payment with
leave."
Opinion in the Ward Case.
Judge Edwards handed down an
opinion yesterday in the matter of tho
appointment of a guardian for the five
minor children of James Ward, ot
Wlnton. The aunt of the children,
Mary J. Brown, asked the court to
take tho children from the care of
the father for tho reason that ho is
dissipated and does not give tho chil
dren proper care. The mother of the
chlldicn is dead. Tho opinion of Judge
Edwards is as follows:
Tho application for tho appointment of
a guardian In this caso Is made under tho
third section of tho net of 4th May, 1S53,
P. L. 430, which provides that whenso
ever nny husband or father from drunk
enness, proliigncy or other cause shall
neglect or refuto to provide for his chil
dren tho care of them shall bo trans
ferred to tho wifo to tho cM-luslon of the
husband; und If tho wife or mother bo
of unsuitable character or If the be dead,
that tho court shall appoint a guardian
of such children who shall perform tho
duties of a parent and apply earnings 01
the children for their maintenance and
education.
It will nnswer nn good purposo to dis
cuss tho unpleasant facts disclosed by
the testimony. It Is sufllclent to state
that tho father, In tho present case, has
neglected to provide for his children and
that the neglect Is attributable solely
to tho causes mentioned In tho act of
assembly. Three of tho children havo
left homo and aro cared for by others.
The other two aro with tho father and
express a willingness to stay with him.
Wo shall mako no order as to these two
at tho present time. As to the three
children, William, Grace and Catharine
Ward, the prayer of tho petitioner Is
granted.
Wo direct that the petition, answer and
depositions submitted to us bo filed In the
orphans' court whero the nppolntment of
guardian should bo made. Wo further
direct that Jnmes Ward pay tho costs
of these proceedings.
Echo of the Jennings Case.
Attorney James Mahon yesterday be
gan an action against John G. Jen
nings to recover $50 which he alleges
is duo him for professional services
rendered In tho caso of John G. Jen
nings against the Lehigh Valley Rail
road company.
Mr. Mahon says that though he has
often requested Jennings to pay him,
that it has been withheld. Mr. Mahon
acted as attorney for Mr. Jennings
during tho period that Attorney Cor
nelius Smith was debarred from prac
ticing In this county.
Oirl Is Unmanageable.
Thomas Stiles, of Carbondale, yes
terday petitioned the court to have hlj
daughter, Carrlo Stiles, committed to
tho House of Refuge. He says she
Is 15 years of age and that ho finds
It Impossible to control her.
Judgo Archbald fixed Thursday af
ternoon at 4.30 In chambers as the time
for hearing testimony In the case.
