RETURN JUDGES HAD
A BIG JOB ON HAND
COMPELLED TO DELEGATE TAUT
TO OFFICERS AND CLERKS.
Convention Adjourned Lato in tho
Afternoon and It Was 10 O'clock
Last Night Before tho Tabulations
Were Completed Footings Not
Yet Ascertained No Evidence Of
fered to Sustain tho Contests In
stituted Somo Minor Changes in
the Rules Offered and Adopted.
The Republican return Juileei who
assisted In conducting Monday's pri
maries met In this city yesterday to
compile and compute the vote cast.
It was a lilg task, owing to tho num
ber of ulllces and number of candi
dates, and late In the afternoon the
return Judges adjourned sine die, after
delegating to the officers and clerks of
tho convention the task of completing
tho work of ascertaining the number
of votes cast for ouch candidate.
The taslt of tabulating the returns
was not completed until 10 o'clock last
night, when an adjournment was taken
until today, when the footings hvlll Ve
ascertained. Tho official returns tabu
lated yesterday vary but slightly from
tho unofficial returns printed In The
Tribune JVednesday.
Some slight modifications of the
rules were made by the convention.
At 10 o'clock the rooms of the Cen
tral Republican club were crowded
and it wns nppaient they would not be
latge enough to accommodate the con
vention. At 10.10 Attorney A. A. Vos
burg, the county chaliman, called thd
convention to order and suggested that
It was plain tho room they were In
would not be suitable for the conven
tion. He therefore asked that the dele
gates suggest some more commodious
room. Music Hall was selected and
the delegates at once adjourned to
that place.
It was 10.30 when the convention re
assembled In Music Hall and proceed
ed at once to the business before It.
On motion of C. 13. Chittenden of this
city, A. A. Vosburg wasunanlmously
chosen temporary chaliman of the
convention. In accepting the office ho
said: .
MR. VOSHURG'S SPEECH.
"I am thankful for this honor you
have conferred upon me. I feel wo
have today In this nation a Car differ
ent proposition confronting us than
we had four yeais ago. Then the Re
publican party was opposed by a party
with a leader and an Issue. Now It
has probably the same leader but It
lacks an Issue. The silver question Is
beyond resuirectlon.
"Opposed to Uryan will be that
matchless Republican from Ohio, our
present magnificent president, Wil
liam McKinloy. Between these men
there ought to be little doubt about
the lesult. McKlnley's victoiy will be
decisive. t
"Whatever our Individual opinions
may be nbbut the pilmary si stem un
der which we are now opeiatlng we
must all admit that it has given us
a splendid ticket. It Is our duty to
lay nslde whatever Individual prefer
ences we may have had before the
primaries and work as a unit for the
success of the ticket we selected Mon
day. If we do this a sweeping vic
tory awaits us In November."
After Mr. Vosburg concluded the
secretary of the county committee,
Walter R. Davles, and J. II. Wlllman,
of Jermyn, weie elected tempo ary
secretaries and Chairman Vosburg

WANTED MORE MONEY.
Return Judges Not Pleased with the
Compensation Allowed by Execu
tive Committee and Said So.
"We net more money or ve leave tho
convention!" was the way Return
Judge John Wolf, of North Scrnnton,
concluded a njicech at the meeting of
the return Judges of the Republican
party of the county nt Music Hall jes
tet day.
For a minute or two It seemed os If
the return Judges would make good
the threat.
During these few minutes Chairman
A. A. Vosburg had troubles of his own,
but he eventually succeeded In pouring
oil on the troubled waters and got the
return Judges to refrain from going on
strike.
When tho arrangements for the pri
maries were being perfected the exe
cutive committee decided to allow each
member of tho board conducting the
primaries the sum of $1 for that ser
vice and the return judge $3 additional
for the day he would he in attendance
at the meeting of these officials.
When tho convention met yesterday
morning there were murmurs of dis
satisfaction over the compensation al
lowed and during the noon recess the
delegates met and appointed ."ohn Wolf
to foiniallj pies-ent their grievance to
the convention.
Mr. Wolf did so.
life said he thought tho compensa
tion was very small, especially In view
of the amounts allowed by the candi
dates for their workers around the
polls. Ho understood there' was lots
of money In the tieasury of the coun
ty committee and he could see no rca
sonfor lef using to ullow them decent
compensation. Warming up to his
ueirk Mr. Wolf said: "We get more
money or we leave the convention!"
William Corliss thought the compen
sation too mengie. "There Is no rea
son," he said, "whj the Republican
party should ask men to work eight
houis for $i, as many membeis of the
vigilance committees had to do on
Monday."
Chailes Uray, of the Northeast dls
tiict of Lackawanna township, was vo
ciferous In his demands for higher com
pensation. He has a good voice and
It was at Its best yesterday, when he
said: "We want an answer to our de
mand right away!" everybody heard
him.
Chairman Vosburg explained that
the comentlon had nothing to do with
fixing the compensation. That was the
duty of the executive committee. He
believed the men who conducted the
ptimailes ought to have a higher com
pensation and had suggested such ac
tion at a meeting of the executive
committee. He stated that he would
Issue a call at once for a meeting of
the executive committee and laj the
matter before them. He was sure the
request would be granted.
"We want that committee called to
gether light away!" raid Biay In his
loudest voice.
"It can't be done," replied Mr. Vos
burg; "the members of it are scattered
all over the county."
"Then the convention will come to
an end," said several, but finally wiser
counsel prevailed and tho Judges drew
up the following petition, which will
be presented to the executive commit
tee. To the Chairman of the Comentlon:
W'c, the retLrn ludgcs of this comentlon re
quest pajment of 5 for toelaj'8 rerviow with 2
fjr eich of the vigilance committee with mile
age for those outside cf the city and booth rent
of $3.
.Most of tho Judges took the compen
sation offered them, and if an addi
tional amount is allowed by tho ex
ecutive committee It will be forwarded
by mall.
THE WEATHER OBSERVER.
William E. Donaldson Is to Havo
Cliargo of New Station.
Postmaster Ripple yesterday re
ceived an oluclal communication from
II. S. Williams, acting chief of the
weather bureau, Informing him that
after July 1, a weather station will be

Chief Willis Moore, of the bureau,

nnd will decide where the station Is to

The annual meeting of tho Young
Women's Christian association was
held last night In the association rooms
on Washington avenue, and the reports
of tho several secretaries which wero
read showed the splendid work done
by this organization during the past
year. The old olllcers were all le
elected, with one exception.
The exercises proper were opened
with an Inspiring sacred song, .after
which Miss Florence Tompltinson, of
Edvvardsdale, who was formerly the
secretary of the South Scrnnton
branch, gave a Scripture reading. Tho
election of officers then took place, the
following being unanimously chosen:
President, Mrs. R. H. Ripple: vice
president, Mrs. W D. Kennedy; re
cording secretary, Mrs. C. B. Dorman;
treasurer, Mrs. F. D. Watts; managers,
terms to expire In 1001, Miss S. C.

L. M. Gates and Mrs. George Howell.
All of the above were re-elected with
tho exception of Mrs. Howell, who was
chosen in place of Mrs. R. J. Foster,
who has resigned. Mrs. Ripple said
that she had a great many objections
to being elected president for the tenth
time, nnd said she would willingly de
cline the honor, should any young wo
man be willing to take the dace.
SRCRKTARY'S RRPOR'l
Miss Charlotte Savage, the secretary,
then read her annual report. In be
ginning, she told of the splendid woik
which sho know had been aceompllshc 1
by the association but which it vn
hard to estimate. The great and pil
mary purpose had been to present
Christ as a personal Lord and Savior.
There were four different Bible classes
taught, all being largely attended.
The educational work was not as
great a success last year as It has
been In tho past, she stated, but better
results were hoped for In the future.
The gymnasium classes were largely
attended and new methods of Instruc
tion will be Introduced during the com
ing j ear. Another successful feature
has been the lunch and rest rooms,
where the girls working In the central
city may get a lunch at tho lowest
prices possible and may He down nnd
rest for a time In the middle of thu
day.
Miss Savage spoke very encourag
ingly of the domestic science school
which has recently been established
with maiked success. In the line of
suggestions she said that there is a
great and pressing need in this city of
a young women's boaidlng home,
where the hundreds of young women
from out of town who are working In
the city for meagre salaries could live
in comfort away from the cheap board
ing house with all its annojances and
discomforts. She stated that, in her
opinion, such an institution could be
made self-supporting.
THE YEAR'S WORK.
In concluding her remarks. Miss Sav
age read a most interesting set of sta
tistics regarding the year's woik In the
central city branch, from which the
following are culled: Total attendance,

ARE NOT UP TO DATE'.
So Says tho Milk Inspector of Water
bury, Conn, Who Is on an
Official Visit.
Waterbury, Conn., Is a town of only
G.'.Oftu Inhabitants, but It Is way ahead
of Scranton In more than one respect
It" the words of its milk Inspector, Dr.
P. T. Kelley, are to be believed. That
city Is about to build a crematory and
Dr. Kclley was sent out by the board
of health on a Junketing trip to see
Just what kind other cities have. He
was In this city yesterday nnd was
seen In tho office of Food Inspector
Wldmayer bv a Tribune man.
"You people nre certainly not very
up-to-date," he said, looking around
at Mr. WIdmayer's modestly furnished
office. "I can't understand how you
nre enabled to get any kind of re
sults In your milk Inspection with
these limited lesources. Why, I've got
as nice a laboratory as one could wish
to see, fitted up with the very latest
chemical devices, so that I nm enabled
to detect the slightest Impurity or
adulteration In the milk.
"My friend here can only tell
whether it possesses the requisite per
centage of butter fat or total solids,
but that Isn't all by any means. Why,
up In New England we have farmers
who put formaldehyde and salicylic
ncld In their milk for the purpose of
keeping It sweet. Formalelehyde Is
very unhealthy stuff, but a little bit
In a gallon of milk will keep it sweet
for weekn. How do tho citizens of
this city know that their milk is not
being treated in the same manner?"
He also casually mentioned that he
had Just had a sink costing $30 put
In his laboratory.
"Did thny O. K. the bill all right?"
queried Mr. Wldmayer.
"Why ceitainly they did," replied
Dr. Kelley
Mr. Wldmayer looked at him with
envious eyes for a minute nnd then
took a bill for 97 cents vvcrth of sup
plies from hl3 desk. "I have my
doubts' as to whether this will pass,"
said he, wearily. He hcstencel to ex
plain, however, that In this cltyv all
bills have to pass through a councll
manlo auditing committee of eighteen
members, all with single and separate
aes to grind, whereupon Dr. Kelley
said he understood why we were not
up-to-dute in some respects.
He wns not much Impressed with
our cremntory, which he characterized
ns "a cheaply constri cted concern."
He will visit several ether eastern
cities before his return home.
