SCHOOL BOARD WINS IN BOTH INSTANCES TWO IMPORTANT DECISIONS BY THE SUPREME COURT. Board of Twenty-one Is Declared the Legal Body to Conduct tho Affairs of the School District and the City Controller Is Compelled to Supervise the School District Accounts Without Remuneration Other Than That Allowed Him by Councils Act of 1874 Declared Valid. The board of twenty-one school con tt oilers triumph over the board of six and further It can require the city controller to act as Its auditor with out pay. Such was the decision of the su preme court, yesterday, when It re vet sed the lower court In the two school board cases: Commonwealth ex rel. John H. Jones, district attor ney of Lackawanna i-ounty, uppellee, against George II, Shires and others, appellants, and commonwealth ex rel. Frank Washburn and others, appel lants, against Ksdras Howell, control ler of the city of Seranton, appellee. In the first case, It was attempted to oust the board of twentv-one on the ground that the act of .1874, under which It was organized was unconsti tutional In that Its title was defective, and further that It, was special legis lation. The second case was brought to test the city controller's right to compensation for supervising the ac counts of the school board, The local court decided apalnst the board of twenty-one by declaring the act of 1874 unconstitutional, and sus tained the contention of City Control ler Howell that he could not he re quired to act as school district auditor without compensation. In both In stances the supreme court took the opposite view. The attempt to oust the board of twenty-one was Instigated by John Jermyn, Nov. 15, ISO", when through the district attorney, as specified by the law, he had Attorney I, II. Hums petition for a quo warranto to compel them to show by what right they held their olllces. JUDGMENT AGAINST BOARD. Tho case went through the usual stages, and on March 14, 1898, Judge Arehbald entered Judgment against the board of twenty-one, holding that the act of May 23, 1S74, under which they organized was unconstitutional because It contained more than one subject and was local "and class legls latlon. In that It legislated for cities of the thli'd class to the exclusion of all other municipalities. A board of six had been elected un der the provisions of tho old Act of 1S51. which legislated for nil school districts alike, but they had not shown their light to tho office and the Judg ment against the board of twenty-one was made subject to further order of court. To guard against the execution of the Judgment, the board of twenty-one applied for and secured from the su preme court a writ of supersedeas, staying all proceedings till an appeal could be taken and adjudicated. The appeal was duly taken, and In February, 1809, during Lackawanna week, the case was argued before the supreme court, D. J. Heedy, the school district solicitor, representing the board of twenty-one, and I. II. Burns, the relator, which by this time was practically the board of six. In the following April, during Lu zerne week nt the Supieme court, the question was again argued In the case arising In Plttston, which was In every way similar to the Seranton cas, ex cept In that Judge Bennett In the court of first Instance had decided In favor of the board of six as well as against the board of twenty-one. Justice Williams' death left the Su premo bench with six members and they became deadlocked on the ques tion, three favoiing the board of twen-Iv-one and three the board of sIa. Chief Justice Sterrltt retired January 1, 1900, and the two vacancies were filled by the election of Justices Brown and Mestiezat. The bench now hav ing a full repiesentatlon, the question was once more taken up. For the benefit of the new Justices a reargu ment was ordered, nnd It took place January 30, last. After another delay of a quarter of a year, the Supreme Justices finally reached a decision, nnd when they resumed their sessions yes terday In Philadelphia, made It known, THE LAST ARGUMENT. At tho last argument six attorneys wcie heard, three on either side. Mr. Reedy led for tho board of twenty-one, nnd was followed by F. W. Edgar, school district solicitor of Easton, who enlisted his services because the decis ion would affect his, as well as every other of the twenty-four third-class cities, and A. E. SIsson, of Erie, whose school board wns defending the clause of the Act of 1871, providing that the city assessment shall be used In mak ing the school tax levy. I. H. Burns led for the opposition, and was fed lowed by ex-Attorney General H. W. Palmer, representing the board of six of Plttston, and Democratic State Chairman Riling, of Erie, who had the opposite side of the question argued b Mr. SIsson. Tlu Act of 1S74 was accepted by Hcranton In 1878, when the old charter was sin rendered. Previously ihero were four school districts In tho city. The Act of 1874 provides thnt In third class cities the school district shill be co-termlnous with the cltv and tends to stipulate that It shall bo a pait of the city government. Tho title of the act leads as folio wo; "An act dividing all tho cltlei of thli state Into three classes regulatlns tho passage of ordinances, provl ling for contracts for supplies for wor: for said cities, authrolzlng the Increasing of Indebtedness and the creation of a sinking fund to redeem the same, tie lining and punishing certain offences in ull said cities, und providing for the Incorporation and government of cities of tho third class."

Under the ruling that "an unconstl-v tutlonal statute may be amended into a constitutional one by removing tho objectionable features," It was con tended by the board of twenty-one that this Act of 1S91 removed the objection made to the title of tho Act of 1871. The matter was ably discussed In the opinion by Judge Arehbald, which Is given In substance below: JUDGE ARCHBAID'S OPINION. "The only provls-lon In the law for a board of school contr illers In cities of thp third diss, organized as are the respondents (one from each ward), Is that which appo-irs In S'ctlon l1 of the Act of May 23, 1S71, amended J-ino lC, 1SD1. The validity of this pro vision Is assailed upon the ground that it offends against thfe constitution, and, after a careful consideration of the subject, we are unable to escape the conclusion that It does. "There Is no suggestion In the title of an Intent to legislate with regard to school directors, or with regard to anything, in fact, except cities and city affairs, and any substantial legis lation on thn subject of tho schools Is not authorized, therefore, by It, un less th.-. management of the schools ot a city can be rsgardvl as part of the city matters. That they are not. however, has been expressly ruled In Chulfnnt against Kdwards, 173 Pa., 24fi. an.1 that Is, of eoure, conclusive of the cjuestion. "It is therrt said by Mr. Justice Wil liams: 'School districts arc by no means municipal offices. They nre not invested with nny of the municipal powers, nor are they t lu.rged with tho performance of munlclpu functions. "It wan accordingly held, In that case, that school districts In cities of tho second class could not be specially legislated for, the classification of cities for the purp se of municipal leg islation being confined to that which In such in fact, and not In name mere ly. "This brings us tc the further ob jection that this provision of the sta tutes falls ut.der thp ban of special legislation prohibited by the constitu tion. Ot anting that school districts In cities might be taKen as a class sufllclently distinct In their needs to oMaln special appropriate legisla tion, what ground Is there for the still further division of them at cording to the different classes ot cities? This is fully answered in Chalfant ngalnst Edwardc. "For purposes of legislation there, can be no division of school districts along city lines, because ther" is no municipal function Involved In the al tnlnlstratlon of them School districts In cities of one clnss do nut differ froir those in cities of anollier. What Is there, for instance, that would apply to schools or school affairs In Seran ton fth'rel class) that would not enuil ly apply I" Philadelphia (list class) or Plttnburg (second class)? FUHTHKH DIVISION. "If that be so, evn though titers might bo legislation for school dlstilcU In the cities of the state taken as a whole Cap distinguished from boroughs and townships), there could he no fur ther separation of them Into sub classes with provisions for one district from the provisions for another. "Now, that Is just w'hnt the Act of 1874 In Sections II to 41 inclusive, un dertakes to Jo. It is also Just whit is attempted in the Act of July 3, 1895, which tho Supreme court, In Chal fant ngnlnst Kdwards, declare coulJ not be done. In the face of that de cision, there Is no poss-lblllty of sus taining these sections o.' the statute, and they must fall. "Without further amplification, It Is evident the respondents show no title to the offices they hold, and must give place to those who can. The time that the present condition of things has continued has nothing to do with the question, The whole Inquiry Is as lo the right of tho respondents to their present olhces and upon that we aro compelled to decide against 'them." Just what controlled the supremo court In Its decision will not be known till the opinion Is received. Tho sup position Is that It was In no small measure Influenced by tho point s strongly dwelt upon by tho board of twenty-one, that It had been conduct ing the affairs of the district since 1878 without a question being raised as to Its right to do so, and that the commonwealth was guilty of great laches In waiting to this late day to ralso this question. The members of tho board of six, whose elections are now made vain are: John Courier Morris, K. D, Fel lows, George Shires, Peter Neuls, t C. Ferber and tho late D. I. Phillips. D, J. Davis, assistant city solicitor, was to have been the solicitor of the board of six. The second case follows the first, as (Continued on Puce 8.) j MRS, NEWELL'S BODY IS TO BE EXHUMED HER IlELATIVES WANT AN IN VESTIGATION MADE. Coroner Hoberts Uas Directed That the Remains Be Uncovered nnd He Will Perform a Post Mortem to Ascertain the Exact Causo of Death Mrs. Newell Was a Fol lower of the Ideas of One Dowle, Whose Religion Is on Christian Science Lines. At tho Instigation of relatives of tho deceased, Coroner Hoberts will today exhume the body of Mrs. C. F. Newell, of Throop, for the purpose of ascer taining what truth, If any. there Is to the report) that her death was duo Indirectly to neglect. The remains ure Interred In Dunmorc cemetery and tho exhumation will take place nt 3 o'clock this afternoon. Mrs. Newell dlt'd about three weeks ago today from blood poisoning. Two weeks previously she gave birth to ,i child, and It Is alleged she at no tlmo had the attendance of a physician. A Seranton doctor, It Is said, made out the death certificate on which the burial permit wns secured, although he did not attend the woman. How It came about that the woman was not given a physician's care Is ycj to be determined. ONE VERSION OF CASE. Tho story ns the coroner's Individu al Investigation has It, Is that Mrs. Newell and her most Intimate women friends are followers of the Dowle faith, a sort of Christian Science sect, whose leader Is a Chicago man of that name, and who claims to he u sort of second Christ, Like the Christian Scientists they do not believe In medicine und going farther than tho Christlnn Scientists they also eschew surgery. A woman named Hoyd, living In Throop, Is u leader In the new religion and Induced Mrs. Newell to embrace It. The report Is that the faith curlsts essayed to bring Mrs. Newell about with the aid of only their treatment, and failing to give her the surgical aid that Is Indispensable In such cases, she died. The post-mortem examination which Coroner Roberts proposes to mnke.wlll determine just how far this alleged neglect was responsible for the death, Mrs. Newell's husbanil says he tried to dissuade is wife from following the Dowle faith, but she would not bo guided by him. FATIIEFt IS WELL-TO-DO. Mrs. Newell was formerly MioS I-ydla Hanawalt, and she Is a daugh ter of Abraham Hanawalt, a well-to-do business man of Montlcello, Ind. She came to this city In 189C, at the age of 23, to do mis sionary work, and for a time was associated with the Florence Crltten ton home. In 1898 she married Rev. C. F. Newell, a local preacher at Throop, who Is the son of a former pastor of the Asbury Methodist Epis copal church of Green Ridge. The Indiana relatives, acting through Attorney D. It. Replogle, have asked for the Investigation. Coroner Rob erts was looking Into the matter, and even before hearing from the dead woman's relatives had practically de cided to have the body disinterred. CONNIFF CAME TO GRIEF. Tried to Enter Wrong House and Got Shot. Thomas Connltf. of S17 Utoadway. according to his own story, looked upon the wine when It was red on Sunday night, nnd as a result he has a bullet In his right leg lie becnni'1 muddled when going .home and he mistook the house of Mrs. Delia Thomas, of 201 Ninth street, for his own He attempted to enter the house nt an early hour yesterday morning and was warned by Mrs. Thomas, who is a widow and Uvea alone, to desist. He pprslFltd. however, and fearing he might do her uodily harm, tired a Flob;rt ride at him through the lower panel of the door. The bullet struck him In the right leg just below the knee. He ininnged to niak" his way to the West Side hospital, where he W now renting The bullet will be re moved today. His Iniurles are not Be lions. INSTANTLY KILLED. Joe Hnnko's Life Crushed Out by a Switch Engine. Joe Hanko, a laborer, was run down and Instantly killed yesterday morn ing in the Lackawanna yard. He was engaged In shovelling ashes from the tracks near the lound house when he was struck by a switch engine, lie was thrown under the wheels nnd his body cut completely In half, the Intes tines being scattered on the track. The remains weie removed to Cu slck's undertaking establishment, where they were prepared for burial and then removed to the man's home, 152 South Seventh street.
