ESTIMATES FOR NEXIJ;ISCAL YEAR WERE SUBMITTED TO SELECT COUNCIL BY CONTROLLER. Ho Estimates That the Total Reve nue of the City for the Year 'Will Be 8311,025 Estimates Sent in by the Heads of the Different Depart ments Show That the City Will Need $368,769.10 to Pay the Run ning Expenses of Its Departments During the Next Year. Following are the estimates of tho city controller and tho heads of de portments for tho next fiscal year, which were submitted to the select council last night: Scrnnton, Pa.. Feb. 16, 1000. To the Honorable tho Select and Com mon Councils. Gentlemen: I estimate that the reve nues for the tlscal year, commenclnj .April 2, 1900, which can be used for gen eral city purposes, will be as follows: Fiom a" ten mill levy tax on valuations. $229,941 77 Less for exonera tions and commis sions f,941 77 $224,000 00 Ft out liquor license $67,000 00 Fiom building permits 2,000 00 From stieot commissioner's permits 400 00 From board ot health de partment 125 00 From city solicitor's depart ment 300 01 Fiom tax on poles 3,r.0O 00 From public parks COO 00 From miscellaneous 3,000 00 From surplus revenues of 1899 (estimated) (5,000 00 Totat revenue $311,92.1 00 The estimates sent in by the various heads of departments are ns follows: MAYOR'S DEPARTMENT. Salary of mayor, per annum. .$ 2.G00 00 Salary of secretary of mayor and chief of police 1.200 01 Stationery 150 00 Incidentals 100 00 Printing and postage f0 00 Telephones 100 00 $ 4,100 00 Respectfully submitted, James Molr, Mayor. CITYTREASURER'S DEPARTMENT. Salary of treasurer, per an num $ 4,000 00 Clerk hire 1.500 00 Printing, stationery and boeiks 400 01 InclelentolB 100 00 I would also ask that an appropria tion be made for the purchase of a new safe for this department. This matter has been before tho estimates commit tee' for the past six years, but no pro vision was made. It appears to me to bo an absolute necessity and should be provided for. In the event of file of common coun cil, No. CI. 1S99. providing for the levy and collection of a license tax. becom ing opeintlve, the following additional apprupilatlons will bo required: Clerk biro $ 1.200 00 License tags 300 00 Book notices nnd ad vertisements 100 00 $ 1,600 00 Respectfully submitted, E. Robinson, City Treasurer. CITY SOLICITOR'S DEPARTMENT. Salary of city solicitor $ 2,000 00 Salary of assistant solicitor.. 1,200 00 Salary of stenographers 300 00 Incidentals 200 00 Supreme court expenses 100 00 Total $ 3,800 00 In my estimate I have asked for an Increase In the salary ot the assistant, and for allowance for a stenographer. Notwithstanding tho fact that tho wotk of this elep.utnient lint been grow ing rapidly, both in volume and Im portance for many years, the salary of tho assistant has not been increased at all; and while councils no doubt con template that the work bhould largely be elone by th( city solicitor, cxpeti enco has demonstrated the fact that It Is an absolute Impossibility for him to do .so. Ho must necessarily spend much of his time In the defense of the city against damage suits, which are being constantly brought against her, and hence much of the office work devolves upon the assistant, who Is obliged to wotk very hard. The Increase asked for is fully earned by Mr. Davis, and I hope It will bo allowed. I have alto as!:od for an nllowance for a stenog rapher, and It will readily be seen that It It almost Indispenslblo that there should be a stenographer to do the necessary work In tho preparation of briefs, contracts, depositions and the like. It Is also an advantage to have some one In the office while tho solic itor and his assistant are engaged In court, fo that the office will be opened to the public at all times during busi ness hours. The amount of these salaries will bo saved to the city by the efficient ser vice of fairly paid efficient persons. Very rcspe-ctfully submitted. A. A. Vosburg, City Solicitor.

Pinkham Words cannot express my thanks to you for your kind advice to mo in regard to my health, I had been running down in health for about seven years. I had doctored with good doctors and taken a great many patent medicines. My trouble began when my first child was born. I had a very hard tlmo and after its birth would have severe flooding spells. "After my second child I had very good health until last winter when I again became pregnant and suffered very much and miscarried. I camo very near dying, and the doctor said I must have an operation, which fright ened mo very much, and concluded to write to you for your advice, and take your medicine. Was troubled with the whites, great pain in back and hips, sometimes when lying down or sitting was unable to get up. Would havo such pain in groins could hardly walk. "I can say I have never seen any thing so wonderful as Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound and Sana tlvo Wush. Your remedies have done wonders for me. Hoping that many of my suffering sisters may be led to take your medicine from reading this letter, I remain, sincerely yours, Mns. Mart Hayes, lUnri.-snuna, Ky."

I have reduced the item of incidentals, and propose to advance Mr. William Schunk, a very worthy young man, from chalnman to rodman, with an In crease of salary of $5 per month. This will tequlre an increase In appropria tion over past years.

MEETING OF THE POOR BOARD. Movement on Foot for Building of a New Conservatory. At tho regular meeting of tho poor board, held yesterday, the Home com mittee reported the purchase of a fire pump for the Hillside Home, which action was approved 'by the board, there not having been sufficient pro tection against fire prior to this. About COO feet of hose were purchased a short time ago and now the place Is fully equipped to meet nny blaze. There was considerable talk at lyes terdayV meeting about the construc tion of a new conservatory for the In mates of the Hillside. Home, on ac count of the old one being fairly In ruins. A building of this nature is ot Inestimable value, as the culture of plants and growing of vegetables oc cupies the minds of the inmates nnd diverts their attention from their un fortunate plight. The motion was referred to tho Home committee, which was Instructeel to advertise for bids for tho construction of a conservatory, with the under standing that none be accepted unless approved by the board. Aside from this the regular routine business was conducted, applications for rellsf be ing made, bills being ordered paid, etc, ANNUAL YALE DINNER, It Will Be Held This Year on Wed nesday, March 15.

ANOlHER CHANCE FOR ATTORNEY BEALE RULE REINSTATED ON MOTION OF ATTORNEY SCRAQO. The Rule for a New Trial Was Called Up After the Hour When Court Usually Adjourns and Mr. Scragg Being Absent There Was Nothing Offered in Support of the Rule, Whereupon Court Discharged It Three New Suits Instituted. Interesting Case Discontinued. Attorney George W. Bealo will not be called up for sentence today, as ex pected. Court has reinstated the tule for a now trial, which was discharged Wednesday, and, at a. time, to bo later on fixed by the court, a hearing will be had. Wednesday when the Beale caso was reached on tho argument list It was nearly 5 o'clock. Court ndjourns usual ly nt 4.30, nnd Mr. Scragg, who had the argument for a new trial in hand, hav ing gone awny, there was no one pres ent to offer anything in support of tho rule, nnd court was constrained to strike it off the list. In taking this ac tion, court was more or less prompted by the fact that Attorney I P. Wede man, one of the attorneys ior Beale, was present nnd indicated that he had nothing to offer. When these facts nnd some lateral circumstances were set before tho court, tho rule was rclnstnted and tho attorneys directed to hold themselves In readiness to argue It at the court's convenience. The argument will likely takn place some tlmo week nfler next. To clear himself not only legally but morally, Mr. Beale propose to make good the $1,500 which he Is accused of embezzling. Tho question in tho case was whether Mr. Beale Invested this money for himself or for Mrs. Meade. The prosecution held that he invested it for himself in a coal company of which he was a promoter. He held that he Invested the money for Mrs. Meade and at her request. Mayfield Case Is Discontinued. The case of the Commonwealth fx rel. Bergan against Edmunds nnd others, which was appealed to the Supreme court by the defendants, has been discontinued. This Is commonly known as tho May field council case. Bergan was a mem ber and at the spring elections secured a re-election. When ho went to tnke his seat, tho faction to which he was opposed, and which was in the major ity, refused to let him in, alleging he had disqualified himself by moving out of the borough. Bergan had moved out of the district, but It was only a temporary move. Ha married a girl from Jermyn, nnd whlla waiting to secure possession of his own house In Mayfield, went on a visit with his wife to his mother-in-law's home. Just across tho borough line. When court heard the story in full It decided that tho action of the council was unwarranted and Issued a man damus, directing the council to seat Bergan. The respondents took an ap peal, but after thinking the matter ovo" and hearing the attorney's estimate of the expense of presenting a case to the Supremo court, they decided not to prosecute the appeal. Three New Cases Started. Three new suits were filed yesterday In the office of Prothonotary Copeland. One was for slander, the other to col lect Insurance nnd a third the in ovltable divorce case. Jane Heap and Ellon McIIale, of Providence, nre parties to the slander suit. Mrs. Heap alleges that on Feb ruary 13, 1900, In the course of a hear ing before Alderman Thomas Saltry, of tho Third ward, Mrs. McIIale said of and concerning her, Mrs. Bean: "You are not making false faces now ns you were when you were mnklng them rob the paymaster." This was Intended, so Mrs. Reap contends, to hold her up to suspicion of having aided, abetted or participated in the robbery of a paymaster, all of which, New Dress Goods We are showing fine selec tions in the first arrivals.
