Making His Calculations.
When ndjournlng time was reached
yesterday, In Judge Savldgo's court,
Mr. Newcomb, of counsel lor the au
ditors In the matter of tho nppeal ot
tho commissioners from tho surcharges
In connection with tho court house
repairs, announced that his side was
through, but would no', formally reat
until this morning as there might Iw
some odds and ends yet to bring out
that would disclose themselves In ths
interim.
Counsel for tho commissioners seem
confident that few If nny of the sur
charges will be sustained. About the
only thing that has as yet been shown
against tho commissioners Is that they
used questionable Judgment in allow
ing n commission to Contractor Schroe

the roof and the decorations of the
superior court room.
The charges for decorating this 10011V
are also open to ciitlclsm because ot

or not the charge!, were lexboibttant.

BASIS Or SfKCHAROKS.
The greater putt of the surcharges
were bused on the Judgment of Atch-
iteel F. J. Amafltn, whom the auditors
engaged tn compare the plans and
specifications with the completed work 1
nnd to examine Into the quantity anl
quality of material used. It required
iiiiy iiifcr in lypewiuing to contain
all he found In the way ot dlsctepan
cles, Items that were Included in tho
plans and yet charged as extras, work
that was done and allowed for, but
not provided for In tin; plans and so
on.
When Mr. Amsden was put on the
stand he could not rerognlze two blu"
prints included In tlu big bundle of
plans furnished by Atehltect Larcy.
He never saw them befote, ho said.
The plans furnished the auditors by
Jin Laeoy at the time of the Investiga

These blue prints', it developed ni

Other Common Pleas Cases.
A compulsory non-sutt was entered
by Judge Archbald yesterday In the
$50,000 damage case of Chuties W.
Page, of Olyphant, against the New
York and Scranton Coal company.
Mr. Pago sued for the death of bis
thliteen-year-old son, Vernle Page, who
was killed at the defendant company's
breaker, where he was employed, Oo
tober 2S, 1S9S, by being whirled about
a. shafting. Ho and another boy wero
playing with u rope. The Page hov
was swinging it about his head, laEw
fashlon, with the Intention of throwing
it at the other lad, when the rope
caught in the shafting, drew him up
against It and whirled him about.
The motion for tho non-suit was
based on two leasons. First, any neg.
llgence that might bo Imputed to thu
defendant was not tho proximate cause
of death, and, second, tho plaintiff In
the caso must have Imputed to him
the contributory negligence of the de
cedent, PLAINTIFFS CONTENTION.

defense answered this, as Indicated in
tho reasons for the non-suit, that the
Plaintiff, tho father ot tho boy, was:
guilty of contributory negligence In
allowing a lad of such tender years to
engage in a dangerous occupation.
The caso of Zlba Van Loon to the
use of William Stoddard against the
School District of Old Forge township.
In which a Jury dlsagresd after a
lengthy trial before Judge Savidge. last
January, Is on trial again before Judge
Edwards,
It Is a suit for $1,000 balance on a
contract for buHdlns a school house
and about $2,000 for extra work. Thn
case was simplified somewhat, yester
day, by the parties agreeing to tako
the $1,000 Item out of the case and dis
pose of It In argument court. Tho
board admits owing It, but ns It Is
claimed by a lumberman named Houck,
of Wllkes-Barre. who furnished Van
Loon with material, nnd who presented
an order for the nmount, It Is In doubt
as to who to pay It to.
As to the extras, the school board
says It never authorized them, and If
they weie done they were done with
out the authority of the board. Presi
dent Samuel linker and Controllers
William Repp and C. H. Van Camp
appear for the school board. Their at

and Walter Bevan.
JURY IJISAOREKD.
In the case of A. F. Smith against
Ueorge A, Clearwater the jury could

were out all night nnd up to 11. SO
o'clock yesterday morning.
A verdict of $717.70 In favor of the
plaintiff was returned In the rent case
of It. T. Black against tho Curtis Medi
cine company.
Tn the replevin case of Enns Flynn
against Annie Barrett a verdict was
returned In favor of the plaintiff for all
the goods nnmed In the writ, with the
exception of the stove, which the de
fendant Is allowed to keep.
Despite what practically amounted to
Instructions tn find for the plaintiff,
tbe Jury in the case of D. Eppsteln
against John Stnokhouse came in yes
terday morning with a verdict for" the
defendant. Judge Archbnld did not
evidence any displeasure, ns It wa.i
with regret that he was compelled to
advise the Jury tho way he did, the
equities being all on the side of the
defendant. It was 11 case where an
r-ged wheelwright was Induced to give
to one party a canlage which had been
l"ft with him for repairs by another
party.
In the caso of J. T. Williams & Co.
against A. A. Ileemcr and others, Judg
ment was entered by agreement In

MEASURES THAT DIE
A PEACEFUL DEATH
SELECT ALLOWS FORTY-TWO TO
QO BY DEFAULT.
Last Meeting of This Branch Held
and All Measures Pending Qo Into
the Waste Basket Among the
Most Important Ordinances Are
the License Tax and the One Tax
ing the Gross Receipts of Scran
ton Railway Company Measures
Which Died in Committee.
Select council held its Inst rezular
meeting before organization on Tues
day night and a search through tho
files In the city clerk's office yesterday
revealed the fact that forty-two ordin
ances and countless resolutions will
die, not having passed this branch of
council. Almost as large a number are
now pending In common council and,
as the meeting of that body this even
ing will be Its last, It can be safely
asserted that upwards of half the
measures Introduced during thp year
will sink Into Innocuous desuetude of
their own accord.
The most Important measuie to go
by default Is the license tax ordinance,
on which action was Indefinitely post
poned. Another Important ordinance
Is the one taxing the gross receipts
of the Scranton Rallwny company,
which was referred to a special com
mittee, which never reported It. The
following ordinance had passed two
readings and were awaiting third and
final reading:
ProNldlng for the construction within
the elty limits of alternating electric
light wires.
Providing for two electric lights In the
Fifteenth ward.
Providing for a sewer on North Wash
ington avenue.
Providing for four electric lights In the
First ward.
Providing for an electric light In tho

Providing for a fire alarm box In tho
Tenth ward.
Imposing a license tax on traveling clr
curses and shows.
Providing for flagstono walks In the
Sixth ward.
Providing for flagstone walks In the
Fourteenth ward.
Providing for on electric light In the
Twentieth ward,
Providing for the appointment of an
elfctrlo light' Infpector.
THE ORDINANCES.
The following ordinances didn't get
as far as third reading, as they are
now lying In the first and second read
ing flic:
Prohibiting children from Jumping on
moving street curs and providing a pen
alty therefor.
Providing for two electric lights In tha
Seventeenth wnrd. .
Increasing the salary ot the clerk of
common council from $600 to $'too.
