SHOE STORE
WARREN INQUEST LAST NIGHT.
Coronor's Jury Decided That His
Death Was Accidental.
An Inquest Into the dnath of Charles
II. Warren, who -was found dend on
the culm dump of the I'lm Hrook
colliery on April 11, was conducted Inst
night In the court house by Coroner
J. J. Itobcrts. A number of witnesses
were examined Including ths follow
ing: Thomns Fltzpatrlek, Con Pike,
Andrew Hopkins, Arthur Hughes and
Mr. and Mrs. John Decker.
The stories of the first four were
substantially the same namely that
they had seen the body lying on the
dump and that the culm was on fire
and emitting sulphurous gass only
twelve feet away.
The deceased man had been quite
friendly with Mr. and Mrs. Decker
during his brief stay In the city, and
their testimony was merely about his
actions prior to his death.
The Jury brought In a verdict stat
ing that the man came to his death
from Inhaling sulphurous gases and
tacked on the following clause at the
end
"Wo further find that this culm
dump Is a dangerous locality, nnd we
believe that signs should be posted
warning persons not to expose them
selves to the gases of the neighbor
hood." Undertaker Barrett, who had charge
of the remains recently received a let
tor from n Mrs. C. II. Warren, of Glo
versvllle, K. Y In which she stated
that the deceased man was probably
her husband. Mr. Decker testified
last night that Warren had told him
that he was from Gloversvlllc, but
that his wife was dead.
ARRESTED IN WILKES-BARRE.
"Lackey" Barrett Is the Man Who

was arrested In Wllkcs-13arre, Monday
night, by Mounted Officer Joseph Bloch
nnd Patrolman Jnmos Feeney, In the

about to board a south-bound freight.
Barrett was suspected of being the
man who Sunday morning broke Into
the shoo store of Water Kozetsky, on
South Washington avenue, anil stole
twenty-seven pairs of shoes. At his
hearing before Aderman Millar ho ad
mitted his guilt, nnd told where ha
had disposed of the stolen property,
and was held In $S00 ball for his ap
pearance at court.
Barrett boarded a slow freight Mon
day night out of Scranton, nnd when
he heard that the police were after him.
Jumped u fast freight at MooMc. On
his arrival In Wllkcs-Barre almost the
first people he met were the two Scran
ton olllcers, who had heard of his de
parture and followed on a passenger
train.
They engaged him In conversation,
and soon becoming certain that ho was
the man they wanted, put the brace
lets on him and returned triumphant
to this city. Barrett is an old offender,
nnd has served a term In the peniten
tiary. THOSE NEW HORSES.
Joint File Committee Discusses the
Put-chasing of Them
The Joint fire department committee
fit councils mot last night to discuss
the question of buying eleven new
horses for the fire department, pro
visions for buying eight having al
ready been made In a resolution Intro
duced In select council last Thursday
night and referred to the lire depart
ment committee of that branch for
consideration.
Tho other three horses are now be
ing tried by the Hook and Ladder
company, for which they are to be
purchased. It was finally decided
that these three horses be bought,
providing the veterinarian approves
of them, and the other eight be pur
chased it the resolution passes both
branches. The money for the pur
chase of the first three horses will be
taken from tho appropriation of $800
made for this purpose, but the $1,000
which it Is estimated tho others will
cost, will go In as a deficiency for
next year.
The three horses now being tried are
to be bought from Frank Cobb, as
are the other eight.

NOT
AS MANY CHANGES AS
WERE ANTICIPATED.
In Making Appointments Bishop
Fobs Observed the Plan of Leaving
Postors In Their Present Charges
When They Had Not Reached the
Time Limit and Thero Was No
Good Reason for a Change Selec
tion of Delegates to General Con
ference Gives Satisfaction.
There were fewer changes than usunt
this year In the Wyoming conference.
Two years ago the entire conference
was more or less disarranged by the
advent, of two or three transferred
men. The effects of these additions
still assert themselves over the vari
ous districts. The regular members of
the conferenco do not welcome such
Importations with nnv too evident ef
fusiveness, for as a rule the trans
ferred men arc given places pretty well
at the top and this naturally causes
some heart-burnings among the older
residents of the conference. There are
but a limited number of appointments
which pay a thousand n. year or over.
In one district. In fact, the average
salary Is about $369.
There was great surprise when the
appointment of Itev. Dr. H. II. Dresser
to Ashley was announced. Dft Dresser
Is somewhat broken In health, and Is
reaching an age where he Is scarcely
able to do heavy work. Another sur
prise was the appointment of Dr. M.
D. Fuller to Jermyn. It was generally
believed that he would go to Norwich,
although It was well-known that he
desired to be sent to High street, Blng
hamton. There Is, however, nn opin
ion among those who are supposed to
know that he took this charge with the
understanding that next vear he will
be made presiding elder.
Rev. William Kdgar had also desired
to go to High street, but is probably
well contented to be In Owego, which
has a good church, a fine old colonial
parsonage, nnd one of the most desir
able pongregatlons In tho conference.
A number of clergymen who wen-
anxious to move to pastures new, were
told by the bishop to be nt peace where
they were. The theory which seemed
to prevail was when the people did not
earnestly clamor for a change the pas
tor had to remain. When the people
did express a longing for another shep
herd, why another was sent, and the
one they designated.
General approval Is expressed at the
selection of general conference dele
gates, both ministerial and lay. They
ar.e considered as fitting representa
tives of so great a conference as Wyo
ming, nnd It Is hoped that thev will J
distinguish themselves In the delibera
tions at Chicago.
Bishop Foss made a strong appeal for
caution In breaking down the time
limit. He warned the conference sol
emnly that he foresees danger, anil
his forebodings are well founded In
the experience already seen In the
five-year rule. When three years con
stituted the limit of a pastor's stay,
the people were loth to offer complaint
for the trifling shortcomings of their
spiritual leader. "It's only for three
years," they said, and then their pas
tor, unless he was absolutely Incom
patible with his charge, was given the
compliment of a recall until the limit
was reached. Now, five years stretches
on to Interminable length, In the Im
agination of both pastor and people.
They grow restive nnd impatient under
the slightest friction. Consequently,
there are now Innumerable changes
after a single year of service, nnd tho
reports show that the five year records
are few and far between. The propo
sition to still further Increase the tlmo
limit Is looked upon with apprehension
by the thoughtful.
The Wyoming conference did not
place itself on record regarding the
amusement clause In the discipline.

ACCUSED OF EMBEZZLEMENT.
Joseph Summers and Son Arraigned
Before Alderman Kasson.
Joseph Summers and his son, Frank,
of Old Forge, were last night nrrested
and arraigned before Alderman Kas

GIBBONS-GOLDEN FEUD.
The Two Democratic War Horses Are
On the Outs.
There Is a lively fight on between
School Controller Gibbons, of the Twen
tieth ward, and School Controller
Golden, of the Sixth ward. It's all
about the appointment of a new teacher
for No. 29 school, and some pretty
hot things were said by both at Mon
day night's meeting of the teachers'
commltteee.
No. 29 school Is In the Sixth ward,
and Mr, Golden Insists that according
to time-honored custom be be allowed
to fill the vacancy. Mr. Gibbons, how
over, contends that some time ago
thero was a vacancy In the Twentieth
ward and he allowed Mr. Casey, the
then controller from the Sixth, to make
the appointment, with the proviso that
if a vacancy occurred in the Sixth In
the future, Mr. Gibbons be allowed to
fill It.
Mr. Gibbons claimed at Monday
night's meeting that Mr. Golden had
promised him that he would allow him
(Gibbons) to make the appointment.
Mr. Golden, who Is not a member of
tho committee, but who got Into the
meeting despite Mr. Gibbons' objec
tions, denied this In toto and insisted
that he be given the right to name tho
teacher. The committee appointed Mr.
Golden's candidate temporarily, and
has left the final adjustment of the
case to be taken care of later on. In
the meantime, very bad blood exists
between the two old Democratic war
horses.
Mr. J. W. Vail, of this city, is dis
tributing from house to house, and,
In fact, trying to place In the hands
of every man and woman In Scranton
and vicinity postal curds addressed

PERMISSION GIVEN
TO BUILD NEW ROAD
COAL OPERATORS HAVE WON
OUT IN1 THEIR FIGHT.
Tho Board of Railroad Commission
ers of New York Yesterday Grant
ed tho Certificate Asked for by
tho Delaware Valley and Kingston
Railroad Company to Build a Rond
from Lackawaxcn to the Hudson
River New Road from Tills Val
ley Is Now an Assured Fact.
The decision of the board of railroad
commissioners of iew York, filed yes
terday at Albany, granting the certifi
cate asked for by tho Delawate Valley
and Kingston Itnllroad company.marks
the successful termination of the long
struggle of tho Coal Operators' asso
ciation to escape crom the domination
of the nllled conl-carrylng roads.
Appeals may be tnken from this de
cision and desultory efforts may bo
continued to hamper nnd obstruct the
completion of the new line from the
anthracite coal fields to tide water;
but tho citadel of the opposition has
been tnken and the success of the
new enterprise Is assured.
In view of the Immense corporate
and political forces which were ar
rayed against the new line, It has for
weeks past been freely predicted that
the certificate would be refused; and It
has been recognized on all hands that
the point where the strongest fight
would bo made with the best hope of
success was before the New York com
mission. That they have given n fa
vorable decision speaks volumes for
the Irresistible strength of the case
which was made out by th,e applicants,
and refutes the Insinuations that they
might ne swayed by forces or consid
erations outside the testimony adduced
before tl.em. To those who have
watched the case closely, It has been
apparent that upon the facts presented
there could bo but one result, and It Is
cause for congvaiulatton that that
result has been reached.
WILL BE BUILT.
An Impression hns prevailed that the
unfavorable rulings of the Pennsylva
nia courts might tcaid to obstruct the
new road. Such Is not the case. The
line from the mines to Hawley is con
trolled by the Erie nnd Wyoming Val
ley Railroad company. Tho commis
sioners' certificate assures the building
of the road from Lacica waxen to the
Hudson. The courts of last resort are
yet to decide whether the Erie and
Wyoming can build the Intervening
fifteen miles between Hawley and
Lackawaxcn. If It can, It will. If not,
It Is certain that the Hawley and East
ern Itallroad company can do so, and
thus tho entire line Is assured.
Great credit Is due to the Operators'
association for tho determined and un
faltering fight which It has made
against most powerful and strongly in
trenched opposition to secure what Its
members deemed to be their rights.
and especial praise should be accorded
to the chairman of the executive com
mittee of the association, Edward L
Fuller, who has borne tho brunt of the
battle, and has with superb confidence
and courage organized victory In the
face of defeat.
The results of this victory should be
of the greatest advantage to every
business interest in the anthracite re
gion. The declared purpose of the oper
ators has been from the first to reduce
the freight rates upon anthracite coal
to a reasonable basis as compared with
rates upon bituminous coal and other
commodities. That the rates have been
kept nt an outrageously high point, and
that the result has been and Is seri
ously damaging to the business, is
hardly seriously denied by anyone.
HATES WILL GO DOWN.
The new road will certainly put the
rates down very materially. Its rates
will have to be met by other roads.
The effect of such reduction must be
larger sales of coal, better time and
wages nt the mines, better profits to
mine-owners, more money coming into
the anthracite region, and more nnd
better business to everyone wilo does
business here.
The operators do not pose as disin
terested public benefactors. They prob
ably would not have entered upon this
struggle If they had not expected some
advantage to themselves ns a result of
success. Such advantage they are fair
ly entitled to.
It is equally fair to recognize that In
helping themselves, they have paved
tho way for great and permanent bene
fit to all classes of the community In
which they live; and, Incidentally, by
tho probable reduction of tide-water
prices of coal, to many distant com
munities. Smoke The Popular Tunch Cigar, 10c,
