IT IS AN IDLE STORY.
Mr. Godfrey Will Continue to Con
duct the Jermyn.
A story has been peislstently circu
lated for some time past that F. S.
Godfroy Is to tellniulsh tho proprietor
ship of lintel Jermyn, Apill 1, to bo
succeeded by one of the eons of tho
owner, John Jcimyn.
Mr. Godfrey and Mr. Jctinyn hava
both been nnnoyed by encountering
the sloty fi eauently of late and Join
in a 1 1 quest that It be announced that
thcie Is not tho slightest grain of
truth in It.
Mr. Godfrey's present leasp has threo
eara more to run and Mr. Jermyn has
assured him that when the lease ex
plics no one else will have It until he
refuses to lenow It. Mr. Godfruy ex
presses himself ns well satlstlrd with
tho Jenny n. and Mr. Jermyn likewise,
la well satisfied, ns he well ought to
be, with Mr. Godfrey's proprietorship.
POSITION OF COMMISSIONERS.
Will Pay Nothing More on Account
of Canadian Prisoners.
It looks very much as If the- $200
taken from tho police lines for January
by Chief Robllng and used by him for
the purpose of brlnglnsr back the two
Dunmoro prisoners from Montreal, will
havo to bo mndo good by someone else
besides the. county, which the chief
stated In his letter to councils "would
pay It back again."
Two of tho county commissioners, J.
Courier Mortis and John Durkin, ex
pressed themselves to City Controller's
Clerk John W. Howell yesterday as
belne firmly determined that tho city
would cet no more money from the
county for tho apprehension of these

prisoners. Mr. Howell went to the com
missioners' office for the purpose of
learning tho true facts regardlnff the
$200 already paid over by the county
commissioners, that the controller
might be guided thereby In demand
ing an accounting of the January lines,
not a cent of which have yet been paid
over to the city treasury.
It will be understood that $200 has
already been paid over to the chief by
the commissioners and that this money
was used In payment of the bounty de
manded by the Canndlan officials. Tho
$200 taken from the police fines was
used for railway fare, etc. Tho com
missioner stated, as above mentioned,
that they thought this $200 covered tho
whole business, and that no other $200
would be paid out of the county treas
ury. The Interesting question now arises
ns to where tho chid Is L'olnff to get
that $200 from.
THAT BIG PRINTING PLANT.
Work on It Will Not Begin Until
Late in the Summer Can't
Get Plans Ready.
The new mammoth printing plant to
be erected- by the Colliery Engineer
company on that portion of Wyoming
avenue soon to be opened will not be
begun until late In the summer, In
stead of the early spring, as had been
anticipated.
This Is due to the fact that the build
ing will be so large and so complete
that the plans cannot possibly be pre
pared before that time. R, J. Foster,
in chatting about the proposed new
building yesterday, stated that, while
the delay was regretted by all, it could
not be helped.
He stated that as tho architects who
are preparing tho plans are the archi
tects in charge of the architectural
department of the schools their work
In this latter capacity Interfered to a
very large extent with the work of
preparation.
Mr. Foster remarked that, though
Architect Collins had been through
every large printing office In the coun
try, he was unable to get very many
useful hints, owing to the fact that a
printing establishment on such an
enormous a scale as the ono proposed
by the company Is not to be found In
the country.
He stated that probably as many as
Ave or six sets of plans would have
to be prepared and gone over beforo
the officials would be thoroughly satis
fied. He said, however, that work will
undoubtedly bo commenced somo time
In tho summer, In order that the build
ing might bo ready for occupancy by
the early part of 1901.
BOROUGH SOLICITORS CHOSEN.
Legal Advisers of the Larger Mu
nicipalities. Solicitors have been chosen as fol
lows In the larger boroughs: Dun
more, T. J. Duggan: Mayfleld, John It.
Edwards; Jermyn, H. W. Mulholland;
Archbald, R. J. F-ourke; Old Forgp,
John H. Bonner; Taylor, John M'.
Harris; Mooslc, John M. Harris; Win
ton, James J. O'Malley.
Owing to a deadlock no solicitor has
as yet been named in Olyphant. Frank
M. Lynch, the present bollcllor, Is a
candidate for re-election and as yet
has no opposition.
THE OLYMPIA TWO-STEP.
During the production of "The Only
Way" last night at the Lyceum,
Bauer's orchestra played the Olympla
two-step, a composition of Miss Teresa
Loftus, of Green Ridge.
Its merit was qutcklv recognized by
the audience, and when the orchestra
concluded there was a hearty outburst
of applause. It Is a two-step that is
destined to become popular.
Don't Confound Good Tailoring
And honorable methods
With the Promises of the Fakes
Who from time to time infest this city. They offer foreign
goods at ridiculous prices, but intelligent men know that
the duties on imported goods imposed by the Tariff Act of
1898 would put these goods beyond their reach, even with
out the original cost of the goods. Consequently, cheap
shoddy, from nameless American mills, is palmed off in
stead. They promise fine tailoring, but get the work done
in other cities at factories and sweat-shops, where the work
compares with houest tailoriug as whitewashing compares
with fresco painting.
We continue to do HONEST TAILORING at lower
prices than it has ever been done for in Scranton.

LICENSE DECISIONS
THURSDAY MORNING
COURT IS EXPECTED TO HAVE
THXX BEADY THEN.
Short Session Yesterday, at Which
Hearings Were Had in Several
Cases Held Over from the Day
Before By a Decision in the
Archbald Tie-Vote Case, Court
Assert That Councils and Not the
Court Have Authority to Fill
Vacancies Other Court Matters.
Judges Archbald and Edwards are
now busily engaged In considering the
liquor license applications presented
Monday. They expect to hand down
the licenses tomorrow morning.
A brief session of license court wns
held yesterday morning to hear several
cases that will be held over. Tho mat
ter of licensing the "Bon Ton," on
Penn avenue, for which there aro two
applications, was simplified some by
the withdrawal of John J. Skolly's ap
plication. The other applicant Is Fran
cis Hatter.
The application of John J. Shea, of
Main street, Taylor, wns opposed by a
remonstrance presented by Attorney
William H. Roo. He argued that tho
place Is not necessary and that It Is
In a residential portion of the town and
in close proximity to a school and
church. Hon. John P. Kelly, repre
senting tho applicant, contended for
the necessity of the place and the ap
plicant's capabilities as a hotel-keeper.
Attorney B. F. Akerly argued to the
court nt length on tho necessity of tho
new hotel In Clark's Summlf, which
Oscar Handrlck wants permission to
establish. Speaking of the big remon
strance filed against the application,
Mr, Akerly asked the court to bear
In mind that the persons who signed
the remonstrance are opposed to the
sale of liquor in every way, shape and
manner, and consequently their Judg
ment Is not the best as to whether or
not a new hotel is needed for the ac
commodation of the public at Clark's
Summit. A good sized sustaining peti
tion was presented by Mr. Akerly.
It Rests with the Council.
The petition filed Monday by Attor
ney C. A. Battenberg asking court to
All the vacancy in the Archbald bor

In the Third ward, was refused, court

MRS. BIGLIN'S ADVENTURE.
Was Almost Chloroformed by a
Burglar.
A burglar made a desperate attempt
about 3 o'clock yesterday morning to
rob the home of Mrs. Catherine Blglin,
on Carbon street and nearly succeeded
in chloroforming her.
She awoke while he wa3 attempting
to render her Insensible with the drug
and screamed all her might. Tho

screaming, and finally ho made hla
escape through the door by which he
entered.
He took nothing of value with him,
however. Mrs. Blglin describes him as
being a heavy set man of medium
