Is Being Done Around the D., I.

the D., L. & W. Board John H.
Sessell Appointed General Pay
master Must Pay Their Debts.
The following communication from
the Scrnnton association of the Na
tional Association ot Stationary Engi
neers has been received with a request
that It-be given publicity: i
As a 'number of employers of engineers
In Bcranton and vicinity Becm to havo
an entirely wronn conception of the ulmi,
object nnd purposo or tho Scranton En
gineers' association, one employer g'Jintr
so far br to threaten to dlbclmrso 1.1s
engineer If he beenmo a member of the
n30c!.tlnn, the undersigned committee
on publicity nnd promotion liavo pre
pared a short statement which H hereby
respecttully brought to your attention:
The National Association of Stationary
Kiielncers Is an organization working
along lines parallel to those of the Amcrl.
can Boclety of Mechanical Engineers, its
principal aim being the better education
of Its members In tho art and sclerco
of steam engineering, nt well ns Impart
ing Information beneficial to nil interested
or engaged In steam engineering. The
great' r part of eich weekly meting Is
devoted to tho reading of technical pa
pers, lectures, the discussion of topical
englneeilng nitrations and other Mat
tel s of a similar nature. Theo meet
nigs are open to the public, ami any ono
is welcome to attend and take ,inrt In
th dlstusbton.
Another of the principal objects of tho
organization Is assisting Its members In
slrknes and distress, which Is accom
plished In dhers way?.
In order to procure by legal enactment
greater safety to the community at large
in the operation of steam plants, the as
sociation has :i special committee In each
state, which works In conlunctlou with
a national committee. This Is another
of tho main features.
The association Is not a labor union;
It has no fixed standard of wnges, nor
stated hours of work: In short. It Is op
posed in every sense to the fundamental
purpose of all labor organizations. We
beg to quote the preamble of tho con
stitution In this connection:
' "This association shall at no time bo
used for the furtherance of strikes, or
for the purpose of Interfering In my
way between Its members and their em
ployer and employee, nnd not countenanc
ing any project or enterprise that will
interfere with perfect harmony between
them. Neither shall It bo used for politi
cal or rcllglo.is purposes. Us meetings
Miall bo devoted to tho business of the
association, and at all times preference
shall bo given to the educating of cngl
nters, and to the securing of tho enact
ment of engineers' license laws in order
to prevent the destruction of life and
property In the generation and transmis
sion of steam as a motive power."
Further, our association will not accept
as a member any union man. Wo do not
ask employers to employ only members
of our association, nor do wo ask them
to discharge engineers who do not belorg
to our association; neither do wo claim
that our members arc the only i.-.cn ca
pable of taking charge of steam plants
and operating them safely and with
profit; nor do we claim that by Joining
our association an engineer becomes Im
mediately supeilor In skill nnd knowledge
to all men outside of the association.
Wo do claim, however, that by our edu
rational work we give an engineer a
chance to becomo moro proficient by the
acquisition of technical knowled-e. A
member of the association has tho pro
fessional advlco and help of all other
members for the asking, and that with
out putting himself or his employer under
any obligations or expense. Our Inter
ests are Identical with those of the em
ployer; the so-called "labor leader" has
no place lu our midst. Hence, wo believe
that tho animosity of some employers Is
duo to a misunderstanding or misconcep
tion of the purpose of the association.
Should you still be in doubt, you can
verify all statements made herein at a
ttlfllng cost to yourself by becoming an
associate member, such niembeishlp giv
ing you all rights and privileges, with tho
exception of voting. You can then at
tend any and nil business meeting?, take
tho floor. If desired, nnd find out from
the best possible source what and who
we arc.
The above Is not to bo construed as
a solicitation, but U bi ought o ;. our at
tention merely to show yvu that our as
sociation Is not afraid of publicity, but,
on the continry. courts It, and especially
courts a-td welcomes thorough Investiga
tion. AVe earnestly ak you, for the 'ove of
fair play Inborn in the heart of every
American, not to condemn our nssocla
tlon unheard should you h'tp-jcn to be Wi.
familiar with Its purpose. We think tho
offer wo have made shows our good faith,
l'pon application, the chairman of this
committee will gladly furnish any fur
ther Information desired In icgaid to tho
isoclatlon.
Deeply legiettlng the necessity of hav.
Ing to defend our association npntnst
misconception and misrepresentations, we
are. Very lesppctfullv yours,
J. D. Jones, Chairman;
Vhlllp Hoyle.
Thomas Roderick,
Commltteo on Publicity nnd Promotion.

AUDITORS CASE IS
A RATHER WEAK ONE
Concluded from Pare 3.1
an exodus from all the other court
rooms, the corridors and offices, and in
less than two minutes No. 2 was
jammed so full tha't the tipstaves had
the greatest difficulty In keeping a
passageway clear for those 'who had to
go In and out. It was ono of Mr.
O'Brien's most earnest efforts.
The case was given to the jury at
4.30, after a careful, thorough and Im
partial charge by Judge Albright.
At 11 o'clock yesterday morning, the
jury In the case of Stuart Cutler
against the Scranton Railway com
pany retired, after hearing Mr. Burns'
closing address for the plaintiff and
Judge Archbald's charge. At 4.30 thoy
were still out, but shortly after this,
when Judge Archbald had left the
bench, an agreement was reached and
the verdict sealed.
At the conclusion of the Cutler case,
a jury was empannelcd In Judge Arch
bald's court to try tho damage suit of
Mary J. Duggan ngalnst the city of
Carbondale.-The jury went on tho noon
train to view the alleged damaged
premises and while awaiting their re
turn, Judge Archbald called up and
tried the case of John A. Lee against
Caroline Hamilton.
BROTHER AND S1STEK,
The parties came from Oreenfleld
and are brother and sister. Their
father gave the daughter a property In
consideration of her supporting him for
the remainder of his declining years.
To Insure the carryingout.of tne agree
ment, the father required of her a $500
judgment note.
She kept him and cared for him dur
ing the two years following the giving
of the note, but owing to some diffi
culty he left her home and went to live
with her nephew. She paid the nephew
$10 a month to support the old man
right along till his death, a year or two
later.
Two years and a half after the
father's death, his son sued on the note,
alleging It had been assigned ito him
by the old man some years before his
death. The daughter opposed the col
lection of the note on the ground that
she had already discharged tho obliga
tion for which It was given.
H. P. Carey represented the plaintiff
and R. A. Zimmerman the defendant.

SCRANTON'S SHOPPING CENTER.
New Costumes and Skirts
Fashions have changed. As noiselessly as the frost
gathers on the window pane, the eel-tight skirt has given
place to less rigorous style and a style that admits of
sate variation. The plait, widening as it runs down from
the waist line; several plaits, widening in the same way,
but lying very flat; a hand plait that seems to hold a trans
verse puckering of the skirt take your choice.
But the cut is not half the battle in making a Woman's
Tailored Suit it's the tailoring. And we are glad to have
had something to do with raising the standard of it. The
bodice or jacket is fashioned worked into enduring good
shape by the tailors as they build it. No mere shaping
of the cloth, and sewing it up, will give the effect.
Do not imagine that our authoritative posi
tion in matters of woman's dress has been gained
by chance very serious, intelligent hard work
has won it.
