Members of tho Team Have All So- curod Good Berths. The Wllkes-Bairo base ball team dis banded Saturday night, and all the players have already secured good positions. Manager Captain Hilly Clymer will probably go to the Buffalo American league team, and play shortstop under Dan Shannon. Ketcham, the fast llttlo leftflelder, whose sensational outfleld lng and clever stick won: made him n big favorite with local fans, has been recalled by the Pittsburg National league team, and may bo tried for awhile In the Pirate's outfield, although it Is likely that he will be fainted out, as several minor leugue managers aro after him. Billy Uurnlo wants him for his Hartford Eastern league team. Johnny Burns, tho hard-hitting Avoca boy, who plays second, goes to Toronto, and Centernehler George Nlcol will play In the Detroit outfield. Owen, the clever twlrler, may go to Detroit, in the Ameilcan league, or to Syracuse, and Catcher Messitt will do the backstop work at Syracuse, which Is sadly In need of a good catcher. George Shoch will go to Springfield and play third base, and big Scott Stratton will also go to that team and tour around In right field. Pitcher Goodwin will probably go to Utlca, and Beaumont Is considering several good offers. Schmidt goes west with George Tebeau, and will pitch for the latter's team in Denver, Col.

KNOTfY QUESTION FOR THE JUDGES IT IS PRESENTED IN THE MEYER'S DAMAGE 0A8E. Boy Lost His Hand While Relieving a Clogged Carding Machine by Reaching Into the Rollors With out First Working a Lover Which Would Rovorso tho Roll, but Which Ho Did Not Know tho Vat, of, It Novor Having Been Polntod Out to Him Other Cases. Interesting arguments were heard yesetrday by Judges Archbald and Ed wards on the rule for a new trial and for Judgment, notwithstanding tho verdict In the case of John Meyers ugalnst the Lackawanna Knitting company, In which a verdict ot $5,077 was given tlie fourteen-year-old plain tiff for the loss of his right hand. The boy was employed at feeding a carding machine. The second day ot his employment, while attempting to pull out wool that had clogged the roll ers, his hand was caught and so badly crushed that It had to be amputated. The plaintiff's side alleged that tho boy had not been cautioned of the dan ger. The defense was that the boy was not expected to attend to a "clog," and that, at all events, the dancer was so obvious that he was guilty of contributory negligence in placing his hand In proximity to the rollers. On the machine near where tho oper ator stands Is a lever which reverses the rolls nnd relieves a "clog." The plaintiff contended that it was tho duty of the company to point this out to the operator and Instruct him in Its use. Tho defendant held that this lever was for use only In certain exigencies and that instruction In Its use was not called for until such exigency arose, if at all. Anent the alleged exhorbltant amount of tho verdict, tho plaintiff presented a list of sustained verdicts for dam nges for the loss of a hand by a boy or girl, In which tho average amount figured out something over J5.000. James II. Torrey argued for the plaintiff, and I. II. Burns and Joseph O'Brien for the defendant. Judge Kelly did not participate In the hear ing, having been engaged with coun sel for the plaintiff, prior to his ele vation. An interesting opinion front the court Is looked for. Other cases dealt with ns follows: Argued Matter of appeal of audi tors settling account of M. J. Lavln, trensurer of Olyphant; B. J. Nichols against J. B. AntonI, et al., rule to strike off Judgment; German Building and Loan association against Finnic Grainbo, exceptions to report of au ditor; Wells & Hlgglns against D. B. Hand, rule for judgment, notwith standing the verdict; L. B. Evans against the city of Scranton, et al., rule for Judgment; Dickson Brewing company ugalnst Elizabeth Zlpgler, exceptions to report of referee; Cross Brothers against Standard Granite company and Peter Stlpp, garnishee; rule for judgment; Lettle E. Fish against Charles Nafus, rule for a now trial. Pel tied Ezra Finn & Sons against Mury C'onnell, rule to pay over money. Tomorrow will bo heard the argu ments on the rules to revoke liquor licences. Mrs. Finn Secures Divorce. A divorce was yesterday granted by Judge Edwards In the case of Jennie It. Finn against Marion W. Finn. The parties, were married February 21, 1871, and lived together until February, 189S, when tho wife dlscoveied some letters and telegrams tending to confirm sus picions she held of her husband's in timacy with a Mame Ramsey, and she left him.

Select CouncIImcn C. 12. Chittenden nnd D. W. Vaughan, who have for mulated tho ordinance reorganizing the fire department and making radi cal changes all nlon,? tho line have beet busy lately In figuring up the actual financial saving to the city In case their measure is passed, In order to win over uny of their colleagues who may not favor tho ordinance. The first big saving which they figure upon is an even $2,70U. This amount Is the city's share of the state tax of two per cent on tho receipts ot all foreign insurance companies, nnd, as at present arranged, goes Into the treasury of tho Firemen's Kellef as sociation to pay sick benefits to all volunteer firemen who are disabled while working at tltf-s. As the new or dinance does awfty with nil volunteer companies, this amount will, of course, revert back to the city. Another saving will he in the rent of the Hook and Ladder houso, which, it is proposed to abandon In case the ordtnam-e passes, transferring the truck- to tho Nay Aug engine house. The lent of the present building is JS00 a year and Chief "Walker claims that an additional rM can be easily saved In the matter ot coal bills, etc. Another big saving, which It Is be lieved would amount to over $1,000, wouhl be on gas bills. The gas bills nt some of the hose houses during the past few years have been enor mous, in some Instances running as high a3 J3ii a month. The disbanding of it a companies would of course ren der tins noso house no longer a club house and would reduce light bills to a minimum. "Theio are many other ways in which we can save money," said Mr. Vauuhan, yesterday, "and we'll have a list of them ready for use. When I say save? money I mean that just that amount can ln applied to paying tho salaries of additional permanent men, so that In a few years, with a little ndded appropriation each year, we'll be able to have a paid department." Asked If he thought the measure would pans, he said: "I think it will puss In the cud, but we're going to huv a lot of t;-ouble getting it through. Select will pass It, but I'm not so sure of common. A number ot the firemen are dead against It, be cause It will do them out of club nouses, bi.t we expect to overcome this objection all right. ' HORSES TO BE PURCHASED. Joint Dapartmont Committee to Do the Buying. The Joint fire department committee of councils will meet on Thursday af ternoon for the purpose of finally pur chasing tho eleven horses now being tried at a number of the hose houses. Two hundred dollars apiece Is the price to bo paid for the animals, or a total of $2,200. The appropriation for the purchases of horses this year was $800, but $210 of this has already been expended In purchasing a horse for tho chief. The $1,600 will accordingly have to be in cluded in next year's appropriation or dinance, Horsedealer Waldron being entirely willing to wait for his money. A number of the councilmen are al ready beginning to repent their action in passing the resolution empowering the purchase of the horses by the com mittee, as this Is an entirely new In novation. It was pointed out when tho resolution was Introduced that the ur gent and pressing need of tho horses prohibited the waiting for the passage ot un ordinance' providing for their purchase. This was nearly six weeks ago. LETTER TO THE PUBLIC. Census Supervisor Speaks to Thoso Not Enumerated. The following letter to tho public was yesterday Issued by Supervisor of tho Census John It. Edwurds: To the People of tho f'ity of Scranton: The enumeration oi the population of this city for the twelfth census ot the United fctatcs has been virtually completed, and the enumerators have returned to tills office their schedules for correction. Throng some inadvertence cither on the part of themselves or the numerators there ma) he tome men, vvemen or ctilldren who have teen omitted from the cnumeiatlon. In case there are any such who take a pride in seeing that every living: person in the city of acunton is properly enumerated, If they will communicate either with this otticc or with the regular enum erator cf their district on or before Thursday next, we will hold the schedules open uutil that time and receive their names. Very respectfully, John II, Edwards, Supervisor. WATER METRES IN SCHOOLS. Registers Will Be Placed in the North Scranton Buildings. The Scranton Gas and Water com pany notified Secretary Fellows, of tho school board, yesterday that on and after July 1 water meters will be placed in all ot the schools in North Scran ton. The company stated that this step was taken on account of the great waste of water In those buildings. The company some years ago placed meters in all building where steam heat is used, but thla Is the first In stance In which they have been placed in other buildings. It Is believed that before school opens in the fall they will havo been installed in all the buildings in the city. LICENSE TAX BILL IS TO BE KILLED OPPOSITION, IT IS CLAIMED, IS IN THE MAJORITY. Its Present Provisions, They Avor, Make It Drastic in a Numbor of Rospoctn nnd to Pass It Would Moan a Hardship on Certain of the Taxed Parties That Would Bo Disastrous Just a Possibility That It Will Bo Amonded Instead of Killed. There Is hardly a chance in a thous and of tho amended license tax ordi nanco passing the gauntlet of councils, nnd tho probabilities aro that It will be killed In select council tomorrow nlRht, when it Is billed to come up on third reading. This or that feature Is objectionable to this or that councilman, and when nil the objectors combined, ns was done through Informal conference dur ing the past week, it was found that n majority of the body was In tho combination. They have ngreed that the only safe and sure way ot defeat ing tho several objectlpnable clauses Is to defeat tho whole measure. A new ordinance with tho objectionable features left out will bo drafted if the defeat of tho present bill is encom parsed. The most serious objection Is to the clauso taxing trolley companies five per cent, of their gross receipts. The Sc-anton Railway company, the only trolley company now operating In the city, has annual gross receipts amount ing In round numbers to $300,000. Five pet cent, of this is $23,000. According to tho city fathers opposing the meas ure on account of this clause, tho trolley company simply couldn't pay such a tax and live. 11 Is hardly fair at all events, they say, to tax the money the company pays out In wages to the hundicds of Scranton men to whom It elves employment. A one per cent, tax, together with the poll tax of $2,000 or so per annum, which the company Is now nnd has been for yeurs paying the city, would be all that could reasonably bo counted upon for the company to contribute, they argue. Some are willing to compro mise on a tax of $100 a year on nil cars in actual use. This would mean a tax of about $7,000 a year. FEAR, RETALIATION. The tax ot $1,000 on water companies Is another feature meeting vigorous criticism :tnd objection. The Scranton Gas anil Water company simply won't pay the tax, the objectots argu. Just as soon as the tax Is Imposed the city's water rates will go up correspondingly. Years ngo the city and the water com pany made a contract whereby the city was to havo water for Its hydrants and public building for $4, COO a year. The contract has explied, but by mu tual ngi cement It has been allowed to continue in force yeAr after year without any formal icnewal. When the contract was made thero were about ?30 hydrants in the city. Now there are 52'i and besides tho city Is dally using thousands of gallons of water for street cleaning purposes, which It Is not at all entitled to under tho contract or any parol understand ing. The compuny didn't object. That's all. The man at the head of tho Scranton Gas ami Water com pany has a icputatlon for being any thing but passive when he thinks he isn't being treated fair. In this in stance he has a think of that kind coming, It is averred, and there Is, so it Is salil, a majority of the coun cils who will think with him. Then.' nie kicks also against various of the smaller Items, such ns the $15 tax on Hucksters and the $25 tax on Insurance ugents. Tl' ordinance Is now on third read ing in select council, or nt least will be in that order of busness, when re ported In Its amended form tomorrow night. Should the selectmen pass It, which Is not nt all likely, It would still have the common council to con tend with, and as that body, by an overwhelming vote, declared for one per cent, tax on street railways, the fate (it the measure, should It ever reach tho lowe-r house, can readily be foreseen.
