The re mains will bo brought to this city .to day for Interment, but the funeral ar rangements have not yet been com pleted. Tho news of his sister-in-law's death came at an especially Inoppor tune time for Mr. Horn, as Judgrt Ward, his partner nnd oldest friend, Is to be buried today. Cost of Power. Power at Niagara Falls Is being con tracted for at from $S to $25 per horse power per year of 3fir days, counting 21 hours per clay for hydraulic and elec tric power, while the average cost of steam power IV. S. Census) Is ?36 per horse-power per year of 313 days, counting 10 hours per day. Therefore the cost of steam power on tho basis of 36,) days per year, counting 24 hours per day, would bo $100:74 per horse-power. As an example of the saving by Niag ara Power, we give the Niagara Falls Paper company, now running hero, having contracted for 6,000 horse-power, including 12 acres of ground, at $9 per horse-power, or $54,000 per year. It would cost by steam power $604,44C per year, a saving of $552,446 In favor of our cheap power here. Another example is the Pittsburg Reduction compnny.whliii controls tho aluminum industry or the country, having contracted for 6,50') horse-power. Including two acres of ground; this company left Pittsburg, where coal was to be had at fi!i cents per ton, and came here to get the bene fit of ouncheaner nower. Mnnv mnnn. fnetuvers can hero save enough on I10.VP1. in om. vpnr ,n nv fnr ,., and cost of moving. Both of tho plants nbovo mentioned are now doubling their capneity.

Absence of Counsel for tho Dofense from tho City Mado This Action Necessary Mrs, Lena Q. Gable Is on Trial on a Charge of Practicing Medicine Illegally Woman She Attended Proved an Unwilling Witness for tho Commonwealth. Action in Other Cases. Tho second week of criminal court opened yesterday, with Judge R. W. Archibald on the bench In tho main court room and Judge Cyrus Gordon, of Clearfield, In No. 2. The Gallagher Qulnn homicide case from Carbondalo was continued until Wednesday morn ing on nccount of the attorneys for the defendants, O'Brien and Kelly, being In Philadelphia attending the session of the superior court. The only other case of any general Importance on the list yesterday waa the commonwealth against Lena O Gable, who Is charged by Coroner J. J. Roberts with Illegally practicing medicine in this city. The case was put on trlnl -etore Judge Gordon late In the afternoon. Tho commonwealth's Interests were looked after by Assistant District At torney W. Gaylord Thomas and Mrs. Gable was defended by Attorneys C. S. Olver and Frank Lynch. The first witness called was Mrs. Mary Han non, of Sixteenth street, this city. In July last Mrs. Hannon resided on South Fllmore avenue, where she was deliv ered of a child by Mrs. Lena Gable. The child died the next day. Mrs. Hannon was an unwilling wit ness for the commonwealth. She said that she Is tho mother of seven chil dren, of which only one was delivered by a physician. She said that Mrs. Gable attended here when several of her children were born and did it as skillfully as a physician. ADMITTED THE FACT. Deputy Prothonotary John Willlam3 was called to prove that Mrs. Gable Is not registered In the prothonotary's olllco ns a physician, but the defense admitted that Mrs. Gable Is not regist ered In any way with the prothono tary. Coroner J. J. Roberts, the next witness for tho commonwealth, was not present nnd court adjourned until this morning, when Dr. Roberts Is ex pected to be ready to go on the stand, Mrs. Mary Yayoda was tried before Judge Archbald for illegally selling liquor. She lives at Old Forge nnd tho constable of that place, Fred Ad dison, was the prosecutor. Mrs. Ya goda was called for trial at tho June term on a similar charge and admitted her guilt. Sentence was suspended. It was alleged by the commonwealth that after she pleaded guilty she continued to sell Intoxicants. This was denUJ most positively by the defendant yes tcrday. The case was given to th's jury at 3 p. m. A verdict will be re turned this morning. Peter Burke was tried before Juigo Gordon for tho theft of two pieces of brass from the Lackawanna Iron and Steel company. Burke lives on South Washington avenue and at the tlruo of the alleged theft, July 15, was em ployed on the scrap dump of the com pany that owned the brass. The com monwealth did not offer any evidence to show that Burke had stolon the brass, but there was some evidence to the effect that ho tried to sell the metal. BURKE DENIED CHARGE. This was denied by Burke, who said ho found tho brass on tho dump with other scrap and laid It aside, but not with any attention of appropriating It to this own use. The case went to tho Jury at 3.30 p. m. A verdict had not been agreed upon up to the hour for adjourning. When couit adjourned for tha day Joseph Speota was on trial In the main court room on a charge of feloniously wounding his father, Pasquella Speota, and attempting to feloniously wound Antonio Senack. On Sept. 3 Joseph Speota and NIcol Itestlne, who reside In Dunmorp, went out on Seventh street, In that borough, while Intoxi cated und after starting a small riot drew their revolvers and fired right nnd left. Pasquella Speota was shot In the hip and still carries th? ba" around In his body. Itestlne was not put on trial yesterday, for tin reason that he is now undergoing treatmen: in the Lackawanna hospital. The case of Constable Joseph Woelk frs, charged with assault and battsry by John J. Gordon, was reported sot tied. A verdict of not guilty was taken and the costs placed on the pros ecutor. Mrs. Michael Yatsko was put on trial In No, 2 chargea with the theft of a sheep owned by John Novlck. There was no convincing evidence to iprove that Mrs. Yatsko had committed the theft and tho court directed a verdict of not guilty, hut sent the Jury out to dispose of the costs. They were placed on the prosecutor. CAPIAS ISSUED. Kate Garvey, alias Kate George, did not appear to answer a charge of sell ing liquor preferred by Ruth Llewellyn und her ball was forfeited and a capias l&sued for her.

Judge Archbald yesterday morning handed down an opinion In which ho refused a now trlnl In tho case of Jo seph Gunster, assignee, ugnlnst Geo. II. Jcsstip nnd others. Ho nfTlrins that It was lawful and right to exclude tho testimony of Mr. Merrlilcld. Ho says that at the time when tho objection to Mr. Men Weld's competency was sustained, ho was particular to nsk the plaintiff's counsel If they did not deslrcr n Juror to bo withdrawn nnd the case continued, but ns they said they did not, a plea of sur prise at the present date is not to be listened to. As to Mr, Merrllleld's competency as a witness, considerable testimony was taken which satisfactorily estab lished the existence of an Interest ad verse to the three deceased defend ants, Dr. Throop, Albert Beardsley nnd George A. Jtssup. Mr. 'Mcrrlffeld agreed October 27, 18S3, along with Throop, Koch, Arm brust and Goldsmith, four other direc tors of tho bank, with a committee ot tho depositors, In con?lir.itlon of a release by Dr. Throop of 2.fifi') de posits, the payment ov,r by Throop and Lewis, trustees, of tho amount re alized for sale of Jessup's coal leases, nnd further payment of $35,000 to tho assignee to be applied to his Indebt edness, by Jessup himself, to make good the bank's assets so thAt they should pay the full deposits, and agreed to supply any deficiencies from their own resources, and if necessary from their own money. This agree ment has not been fulfilled. It was further shown that to carry out this agreement, Throop, Goldsmith, Koch and MerrlPeld In November, 1SSD, bor rowed at thu First National bank of Scranton $10,000 which went to E. Merrlfleld, trustee's credit and wa- checked out by him, and other sums were then borrowed, and In the same way used, at one time the total loans running as high as $35,000 to $40,000. There still remains $S,SfiO of this loan, for which Messrs. Armbrust, Koch, liable. Goldsmith and Merrlfleld aro i The other director, Throop, died I and his widow paid his sham of the loan. Each, then, of these four living parties having the right under tho agreement with the depositors' corn- mlttee to an assignment, of the deposits l i" "'- v-Airni. uiiu as mm us mey uic paid and having already absorbed in this way a large amount of deposits, amounting to $183,000, both in relief of their outstanding guarantee and In order to recoup themselves for what they have already paid out or made themselves liable for, by this loan, hove every ono a direct Interest to swell the bank's assets In the hands of the assignees and so clear them selves as far as possible from their obligations. This Is Just what a recovery in the case seeks and the court, therefore, says It is constrained to hold Mr. Mer rlfleld as incompetent, and that he was rightly excluded from testifying. Affirms the Judgment. Judge Archbald gave tho following1 opinion In the certiorari case of Henry Shafer against Frank Oliver: The summons In this case was return able July 5, 1MI9, at S a. m., and was duly served. Tho defendant appeared with his counsel at the hour named and watt ed seven minutes and then withdrew. At 8.20 tho plaintiff appeared and after wait ing until 'J o'clock was heard by the Justice und Judgment given In his favor for Jj.2j. Tho defendant now seeks to reserve tho Judgment because the plain tiff did not appear at the exact hour llxed for tho return of tho writ. On n summons returnable at a speci fied hour an alderman or justice has tho right upon tho arrival of tho hour to take up tho enso and proceed with It, and either party who Is not there may be held to be In default and Judgment given against him accordingly. The Judgment Is affirmed. R. W. Archbald, Dec. 11, 1S99 President Judge. Mandamus Issued.

MEARS & HAGEN, POPLAR STREET WAR AIRED BEFORE COURT CITY MAKES ANSWER AND TES TIMONY IS HEARD. Respondent Claims tho Street Was Plotted in 1800 and Has Ever Since Been Regarded a Public Thorough faro as Much as Any Street In the City Every Map, including tho Ono Accompanying the Complain ant's Quit-Claim Deed Shows Pop lar Street Extended to the River. Answer was made yertcrday by tho city of Scranton to th- stilt brought by the Delaware and Hudson Railroad company to prevent the city from maintaining a crossing at Poplar street and testimony was heard by Judge If. M. Edwards on the rulo to mnke per manent the temporary Injunction, al lowing tho company to tear up the crossing laid by the city and rebuild the fence which the city tore dmvn. Ex-Judge W. II. Jessup icpresented the company, and tho defendant's counsel wore City Solicitor A. A. Vos burg, ex-Judge II. A. Kriapp nnd Chas. II. Welles. The latter two nro In the case In the Interest ot the Scranton Bolt and Nut company at whso In stance nnd expense the crossing was laid. The answer Is made In the name of Hon. James Molr, mayor. It nvers that Poplar street, through out Its entire length to the Lacka wanna river, has always been consid ered one of the public streets ot tho city of Scranton by the ofllcers of tho city and by the officers having charge of such matters for the Lackawanna. Iron nnd Coal company, who originally dedicated said land to the public. The plaintiffs acquired tholr right of way for a railroad with full knowledge of the said public street which they were crossing, and these defendants, as of llcers of tho city, have deemed It a part of their oti'dnl duty to the public, to maintain this street In Its entirety to the same extent as any other public street of the city. Its necessity for the use of vehicles has not been so much felt In the past, until In the summer of the present year, when the Scranton Holt nnd Nn: company commenced the erection of their works: but It has never lost Its character as a public street, and h-i.i been used extenshely by foot passen gers, and for all other pin poses of a public street, ns such necessity has arisen. It would be a veiy great hard- snip at tne present time to close up said street, as It would cut oft the prop erty owners, having large Interests In vested and nt stake, from any outlet: and these defends nts would be very lax In the performance of their official duties If they should permit the plain tiffs to maintain the fence which they have wrongfully built across said street. WHEN IT WAS PLOTTED. The plotting of Poplar street took place in 1S6S and was dedicated to pub lic use at that time. Several times subsequently the Lackawanna Iron and Coal company re-plotted that tract and each time Poplar street was shown extended to the river and across the Delaware and Hudson tracks. It s even held that the quit claim deed by ;hlch the railroad company claims Its right In fee to the land covered by Its tracks und had attached to it a miu showing Poplar street opened across the railroad. The Diamond Land company's new tract on the opposite side of the river shows an extension of Poplar street. It is alleged, and eventually a bridge will of necessity be erected across the stream at that point. Tho construction of the Fifteenth district main sewer along Poplar street and out to the river, which took place In 1S33-04 is pointed out as an evi dence of the city's right to use the thoroughfare and the railroad com pany's recognition of that right. It Is also contended that Poplar street Is shown to be one of the public streets of tho city of Scranton every map of the city, either prepared officially by the city authorities or unofficially by private Individuals, who procured their information from the city or from maps on tile- In the oflice of the Lack awanna Iron and Coal company. The bulk of the testimony presented to Judge Edwards bore on the sewer incident. After Superintendent . It. Manvllle had testified that there was no crossing nt that point and no pro visions for a crossing, Edward Boyle, who was foreman of the gang which constructed the sewer under the tracks, testified that the Delaware and Hud son company had an Inspector on the ground nil the time the sewer was being constructed under the tracks and that he exercised supervisory, powers. John Ross, who was the in spector In question, corroborated this. II. W. Kellow, the company's road master, testified that, until recently, a fence was maintained along the tracks In that neighborhood and that It ex tended across Poplar street.
