Writing from Ixindon to the Chicago Record,
K. 1'. Itell .sajs: "John Jermjn, the multi
millionaire anthracite coal miner of Scranton,
l'a., is sending the month in London, in route
to the Paris exposition. Mr. Jermjn, who is an
active, unassuming man of 75 lightly resting
jears, is a native Englishman, and has vivid rec
ollections of historic places In London fifty jears
ago. He told me at the Carlton hotel one night
that he was a boy at school in tho metropolis
when Queen Victoria was a princess in her
'teens. He saw her crowned, was present at her
marriage to I'll nee Albert and came back in lb'17
to help celebrate her diamond jubilee. Mr. Jer
mjn, after whose ancestors Jermjn street re
ceived its name, heard parliamentary debates
when the eloquence of Daniel O'Connell rang
through the halls on the Thames and he speaks
interestingly of the many times he used to ste
the old Duke of Wellington. America has claimed
Mr. Jermjn since the early '40. He retains
love for his native heath tuHlcltnt to induce fre
iiuent trans-Atlantic trips to the scenes of his
bojliood dajs, but shares the Impressions of
most American visitors that tho world metropolis
is woefully behind the times in innumerable re
spects." LARGE MAY COLLECTIONS.

Speak-Easios Under Ouidanco of
Aforesaid Worthios, Spending
Money Frooly, and Making Him

Have Since Heard from Him.
Just at present the ofllce of ward con
stable In this city Is not a sinecure,
and In four particular Instances it is
not that, with a very heavily uccentcd
negative.
To use nn idiom of the vulgate,
"They arc up agin' It."
Not lone ntro a dapper young mn.ii
with a large wad ot money went about
of nights representing himself as a
rustler for one of the Itepubllcan can
didates. He was commissioned, so he
averred, to look after the speakeasies,
and had been advised by tho candidate
for whom he was hustling that he
would be shown nbout by Mr. 's
friend, the constable.
Air. Constable was only too glad to
be of service to his friend, Candidate
, and In one Instance he hesi
tated to accept a slight fee for his ser
vice. Parenthetically, he only hesitated,
however.
lie that ns It may, tho constable, in
each of the four above nlluded to in
stances, took tho dapper young man In
tow nnd piloted him throughout his
bailiwick, Introducing him to every
speakeasy keeper nnd Joining with the
gang in drinking success to Candidate
and long life to his free-handed
lieutenant,
Yesterday each of the four constables
received from Attorney F. K. Ucers, of
counsel for the Men's union, n list of
the places visited by the dapper young
man, while under the constable's guid
ance. With It was a note setting forth
that the prosecuting committee of the
union would expect each of these places
leturned to the next grand Jury, or
some good and suMclent icason for a
failure to do so.
The alternative of the good and suf
ficient reason would be, it wns stated,
an opportunity of defending a peniten
tiary charge of malfeasance in office.
WOMAN COMMUTED.
Mary Ogorozak Will Havo to An
swer the Charge of Man
slaughter. Alderman John conducted a hearing
at the West Side hospital last night
In the case of Miss Mary Ogorozak,

account of Illness, caused by the pre
mature birth of her child last week,
which was afterwards found dead In
iMcNlchols court.
Several witnesses were examined
who testified to. the finding of the
body, and their testimony was similar
to that given at the coroner's Inquest
last week. The woman was nfter
wards ordered taken to the county Jail
to await the action of the grand Jury.
The committal was made on the
strength of a warrant sworn by Lieu
tenant Williams, who preferred the
charge of manslaughter against the
woman. According to the examina
tion made by Dr. Roberts, the child
died an unnatural death, violence
having been used.
The woman will bo taken to the
county jail today.

ELLMAN DID NOT APPEAR.
His Bail Was Doclarod Forfeited by
Aldorman Knsson.
Constable Jake Kllman was arrested
yesterday forenoon by Constnblo Max
Flrestlno, of Alderman Kasson's court,
and taken to the central police station,
whero he wns to await his hearing nt
8 o'clock last evening before Alderman
Kasson, on the charge of assaulting nn
Emmet street woman with n blackjack,
when she ntempted to tnke from him
her small son, whom Kllman had ar
rested, on tho charge of stealing brass.
School Controller Patrick Golden
balled Kllman out, giving bonds In the
sum of $300 for his nppearnnco nt the
hearing. The guardian of law and or
der, however, did not present himself
at the henrlng Inst night nnd the bnll
was therefore forfeited, although In
case Kllman nppenrs today he will bo
given a hearing at 8 o'clock this even
ing. When Flrestlno arrested him, Kllman
resisted fiercely. He was apprehended
nt the court house, and declared ho wns
a wltnss on a trial and couldn't get on.
Firestlne, who isn't the best friend Kll
man has in the world, first remon
strated with him, and then after using
moral suasion, grasped the pugnnclous
one by the collar, and after n little
argument convinced him he had hotter
go with him to tho police station.
ESTOPPED THE PROBATE.
Supporters of the Local Will of Mrs.
Ella M. Amerman Hear of
Their First Success.
Colonel L. A. Watres, executor of the
estate of Mrs. Klla M. Amermnn, un
der tho will probated here, received
word yesterday from his attorney In
Worcester, Mass., Charles Wood, thnt
the caveat which he had filed at Col.
Watres' Instance had halted the pro
bating of the second will, which was
filed by llev. Dr. Dixon's attorney,
General Edwin Champln, of Cam
bridge, Monday afternoon. The time
for the hearing has not yet been fixed.
The first effort on tho part ot the
supporters of the local will Is to bo
to compel the Massachusetts parties
to offer the second will for probate
In this county, nnd, after that, attack
it on the ground that it was made
when the testator was incompetent or
subjected to undue inlluence.
It Is expected that there will be no
dilllculty In proving that Scrnnton was
Mrs. Amermnn's domicile, In which
case the will must be probated in this
county. Letters are in existence In
which Mrs. Amerman declined to nllow
her home in this city to be offered for
sale or lent. This, coupled with the
fact that the furniture and all the
household goods were allowed to re
main undisturbed after Mrs. Amermnn
closed It up to go to Massachusetts a
year ago, will tend to prove that she
did not give up her residence here.
Nothing of the contents of the will
has been learned here further than
what has already been published. The
bequest of $10,000 to llev. Dr. Dixon In
trust for the care vt decedant's horses
and pet dog, which was announced In
yesterday's Associated .Press dis
patches, gave gootl grounds for en
couraging the supporters of the local
will In their belief that tho Massachu
setts will can be successfully attacked
as having been made when the testa
tor was Incompetent.
BUILDING INSPECTOR BUSY.
Securing Warrants for Violators of
Building Ordinance
Ituildlng Inspector T. B. Jnckfon
yesterday secured warrants from Al
derman Howe for the nm st of twelve

been fixed for Friday morning.
Ever since Mr. Jackson has been

same class of people. It will bt re
membered that Contractor Laliar,
who wns arrested last summer, made
a test case out of the matter and
that court decided that a permit inut

alty for not taking oiw out and com
mencing building operaf.ons is a tine
of not les-j than $3 nor more than $100.

A CRUEL HUSBAND.
Mrs.
Wm. E. Reese Charges
Him
with Assault.
Susan Reese, of 153D Mylert avenue,
had her husband, William E. Reese,
arrested and arraigned before Alder
man Howe yesterday on charges ot
non-support and asault and battery.
She alleges that he has not contributed
one cent to her support for over three
years.
She further states that he viciously
assaulted her on the evening of May
2G. beating her until she wns black and
blue, and then threw her out of the
house, Reese had no defense to offer,
so the alderman held him In $500 hall

to Negotiato for a Sito Building
Is to Be 70x100 and Four Stories
High Will Employ Twolve Hun
dred Hands, at tho Outsot Want
No Local Capital.
Tho cigar factory for West Scranton
Is nn assured thing. Nathan Weiss, the
head of the New York firm which will
establish it, was in the city yesterday
nnd before leaving stated that his com
pany will .have a 1,200-hands factory
In operntion here within six months.
Various land companies have offered
sites, and some one of them may be
accepted. Mr. Weiss favors a plot on
the Fellows tract on Luzerne street,
nnd tho probabilities are that tho fac
tory will bo located there. Hon. John
II. Fellows, agent for the tract, an
nounced some time nco that he would
give a free site for a desirable factory,
and it Is supposed tho offer still holds
good.
Mr. Fellows could not bo seen yester
day, but Martin P. Flynn, proprietor
of the Valley house, who has agreed to
act for Mr. Weiss, will negotiate with
Mr. Fellows today. If this site can not
bo secured, Mr. Flynn Is authorized to
negotiate for some other that, in his
Judgment, Is desirable. It Is essential
that It should be on tho West Side.
IMr. Weiss stated that tho capacity
of tho factory will be limited only by
tho number of desirable hands that can
be secured. At the outset the company
will build a factory 70x100 and four
stories high.
Some of tho local board ot trade men
told Mr. Weiss thnt possibly ho could
secure some local capital to assist In
giving tho now Industry a start. He
politely informed them that ho didn't
want a cent of local capital. "Give us
tho site, and we'll do the rest," he said,
It wns further stated by Mr. Wc's.3
that his company will not compete for
the local trade. Nearly all its product
is sold through Jobbers In the large
cities.
CANDIDATE FOR JURY
MISSIONER.
COM-
J. W. Tiffany, of Fleetville, Benton
Township,
J. W. Tiffany is a man who has been
ready and willing to support Repub
lican candidates In nominating con
ventions and campaigns for a period
of more than thirty yenis. The follow
ing is a comment copied from the
Scranton Truth the day after his nomi
nating speech for Sheriff LkjwIs:
"When Delegate Tiffany gets Ihs
American eagle by the tall and swings
the noble bird of freedom around us
recklessly as he did in the court house
yesterday, one feels It Is a pity he does
not occupy a front seat in congress.
Mr. Tiffany's place is In the national
legislature, where he could distinguish
himself as eagle-bearer to the Goddess
