FIRE DEPARTMENT ' SEVERELY SCORED SELECTMAN CHITTENDEN CALLS IT A MOB, PURE AND SIMPLE. Sensational Allegations Follow the Investigations of the Special Com mittee Which Undertook the Diall ing of a New Eire Department Or dinance Two RportB Differing Very Materially Are Presented to Council and Referred to the Fire Department Commltteo One Saves $8,000, the Other Expends $30,000 Additional. Select Counellmen Chittenden nnd Vaughan In drawing up the ordinance providing for the reorganization of the flro department, reckoned without Jo seph Oliver, the gentleman from the Fifteenth, who was the third member of the special committee nppolnted to consider this question. As a conse quence, Mr. Oliver presented a minor ity report Inst night, In the shape of a seeoud ordinance ptovldlng for u radically different plan of reorganiza tion from the one proposed In Messrs. Chittenden and Vaugnan's measure, which was also introduced last night. The provisions of the last named measure have aheady been described in these columns. While Chief "Walker Is In favor of certnln pcrtlons of this measure, It Is understood that he If In entlie record with all of the re visions of Mr. Oliver's ordinance, the last named gentleman und himself bo ing both members of the Columbia company. The powers conferred upon the chief nro practically the same as In the other measure, which, to differentiate, will be termed the Chittender Vaughan ordinance. lie Is to be appointed by the mayor with tho confirmation of select coun cil, and his salary is fixed nt M.2P0 a year, lie is to ha-o entire control of nil tho property of the department and is to have the power to transfer men, horses und apparatus. PUBLISHED SPECIFICATIONS. He is authorized to publish on the first Monday of every April full speci fications for the purchase of all sup plies and apparatus, but this purchas ing power Is not placed in his hands, as it is in the Chlttcnden Vaughan measure. lie is per mitted to make small purchases, but not all. He is required to furnish a bond of $3,000 for the faithful per formance of his duties, and must turn over to tho city treasurer ntl com missions, discounts and presents, nnd the proof of the receipt, and withhold ing of any such shall constitute a mal feasance In ofllce. Tho ordinance provides that the de partment shall consist of a chief, four assistant chiefs, sixteen companies nnd captains of various companies, perma nent men, bunk men nnd call men. The city Is to be divided Into four districts, each to be In charge of a district chief at a salary of $500 a year. These assistant chiefs nre to aid the chief In tho discharge of his duties, and, under tho chief's direction, ure to have complete charge of all men, horser. t nd npparatus In their respec tive districts. There is no provision whatever In tho Chlttcnden-Vaughan ordinance for assistant chiefs. Tho appointment of men for the var ious companies Is nearly the same as in the Chlttendcn-Vaughan ordinance, nnd is as follows: Steamer company, live permanent men nnd six bunk or call men: chemical company, four per manent men: hose companies, three permanent men and his bunk or call men; hook and lndder company, five permanent men and four bunk or call men; combined chemical nnd hose companies, four permanent men jr.d six bunk or call men." CALL AND BUNK MEN. The call men are to respond to nil fires and are to be paid at the rate of 40 cents an hour for all time actually ex pended at all fires, the time to be com puted from the ringing of the alarm to their return to the house. The bunk men are to bo all call men sleeping In the engine house nnd their compensa tion Is to bo 50 cents an hour. The chief is empowered to select from the permanent men of each company one person who Is to be the captuln, who Is to have personal charge of all city property In his company house, nnd who Is to bo held responsible for the maintenance of order at t-hc englno house and for the discipline of the men of his company nt fires. The salary of permanent men Is fixed nt $720 a year or $G0 a month. The Vnuchiu-Chittendcn mensure leaves tho salaries as they are at piesent. The ordinance provides for the ills banding of all companies, but no tlie for this is fixed. At last night's meeting of select council when the two repoits were be fore the house, Mr. Chittenden stated that the majority ordinance will cut down the present flie department ex penditure of $"2,000 a year to $44,000, while tho Oliver ordinance contem plates Increasing the expenditures by about $30,000, without providing any means to meet the Increase. Speaking of his Investigations of tho fire department, since his nppolntment on the special committee Mr. Chitten den mnde this sensational statement: "I must say that our fire department is not nn organization. It Is a mob, pure and simple. A business man would not tolerate it for a minute If It wns an affair he had pilvately to deal with." Mr. Oliver followed with a brief speech In defense of his minority re port, but was silent as to the startling allegation of his fellow-commltteeman regarding the lack of proper govern ment In the department. The Chlttenden-Vaughan ordinance, Mr. Oliver contended, aimed ut the abolition of the volunteer department and the substitution of something far less elllclent. fjuch action would be retrogression, he thought, and tho peo ple of this city want nothing but prog ress. On motion of Mr. Chlttednen both re ports were referred to the flro depart ment committee without Instruction. BOSTWICK-MUNSON NUPTIALS. Miss Mattie Munson, of This City, Weds D. Oliver Bostwlck. Another happy June wedding took place yesterday at the home of Mrs. M. A. Munson, of 325 Jefferson ave nue, when Miss Mattie G. Munson was married to D. Oliver Bostwlck, of Chi cago, 111., Rev.

The closing exercises at St. Thomns' college were conducted yesterday morning In the college hall and were attended by a very large number of the friends of the school. Hev. James J. O'ltellly presided and an excellent programme was rendered. Tho partic ular feature of this was a prize debate on the subject, "ltesolved, That (Jrant Was a Better General Than McClol lan." The Judges decided in favor of the negative. A number of gold pins nnd other prizes were presented to the one hun dred and fifty Btudents having n per centage of 85 per cent, and over. An address concerning the best method of spending the vacation period was also given by Brother Andrew. STRAUB RETURNS HOWE. Expresses Surprise That a Scandal Had Grown Out of His Hav ing Been Robbed. Thondnro Tt. Ktrnnli. ex. toller nf the c..o. c..i., ,i, .,.i . Scranton Savings bank, returned to the eltv vi.stor.lnv. after havlnc anent the city yesterday, after having spent his vacation In New York city. He called at The Tribune olllce late In the afternoon and asked that the state ment published In another paper to the effect that he had "skipped" be denied. "I did not skip and had no occasion to skip," Mr. Straub said. "It is true there was a shortage of $2,000 in the bank's accounts for which I was re sponsible, but every cent of It was made good before I went on my vaca tion. "It was not until my return to the city this afternoon that I received even tho first Inkling of the fact that the newspapers had printed anything about tho affair. None of the stories that I have seen agreo and the onlv practically correct story Is that which appeared In yesterday's Tribune. The fnct that Mr. Shafer's own statements, or what are renutcd to be his state ments, nre conflicting, constrains me to interview him before making my statement. He went out of town over night, but I will endeavor to see him In the morning. I will then make my statement." Mr. Straub Insisted that the robbery story was not a creation of his to ex plain away apparent crookedness. Various stories of a highly sensa tional nature concerning the affair are being tol(l. One of them Is to the ef fect that the defalcation Is vastly greater than the highest figures yet mentioned and that no small part of the shortage Is due to Mr. Straub hav ing advanced large sums of money for personal favors, these moneys being given as loans on Insecure notes. ACCUSED OF STEALING WIRE. Caught in the Act of Disposing of Trolley Company Property. Thomns Hall, a man well on In years-, was arrested yesterday morn ing at Suravltz's junk shop on Penn avenue it id taken to the central po lice slat'on, charged with the larceny of a quantity of copper wire from the Scranton Hallway company. He was nrresteJ by Mounted Officer Bloch and Patrolman Schmidt, while trying to dispose of the wire at the junk shop. Mayor Molr gave him a hearing, at which a representative of the com pany wns present and testified that a very large amount of thlj who ha.j been stolen from tho comrany of late. In default of $500 ball Hall went to the county Jail. UNDER A FALL OF ROCK. John Namyltky Injured nt the Von Storch Shaft. John Namyitky.of CIS Pleasant street, while at work at the Von Storch shaft, In North Scranton, yesterday morning, was caught under a fall of rock ami sustained serious Injuries. He was taken to the Lackawanna hospital, where It was found that he had suffered a sprained back, and that two fingers on his right hand were badly crushed. What Constitutes a CrankP Phologinphlcally speaking, Schrlev cr sayn "they are people who know what they want but can't find It, and nie so designated by the party who Is unable to please them." Schtleer loves to serve cranks, be cause, as he continued, "they put ino on my mettle and the appreciation 1 strive for Is worth more to me than tho pecuniary reward." Cranks, or rather connoisseurs, are particularly welcome at the Gold Medal studio, 110 Wyoming avenue. BUY YOUR NOW. Large Receipts Daily. Fancy Cherries and Pineapples. E. G.

Mr. Chittenden itfoves to Recommit tho Measure with Instructions to the Committee to Consult City So licitor Vosburg Speak-Easy Ordi nance, Giving Police Power to Raid Unlicensed Places, Passed on Third Reading Assistant Flro Chief SJowe Will Be Lexowed. It was 9.45 o'clock when the license tax ordinance was reached by select council last night, and In view of the wholesale amendments awaiting its appearance, It was decided to post pone net Ion. On motion of Mr. Chittenden It wns recommitted with lnstiuctlons to the committee to consult with City Solici tor Vosburg In making the measure confmm to tho law, particularly wherein It Imposes a tax In excess of $100 a year on corporations, which It appears Is unwarranted by law. In terested parties, It was suggested by Mr. demons, should appear before the commltteo with nny complaints they may have to mnlte. Mr. Chittenden suggested that the committee might be instructed to mod ify the live per cent, tax on street car companies by making it "In lieu of all other taxes." -V number of voices declared "it can't be done legal ly," and Mr. Chittenden did not fur ther presM his suggestion. There wore a large number of men Interested In the ordinance occupying the spectators' seats. Tho speakeasy ordinance, giving the police power to raid unlicensed sa loons, was called up on third reading by Mr. Chittenden, and passed by the "" '-' "it. .. . Ayes Messrs.

Vaughan, McAnclrew Mlt. IIOCHK'3 OBJECTIONS. Mr. Hoche explained that his opposi tion to the measure was based on tho assertion of tho mayor that the police force was too meagre to attend to the duties 1c already has to look after. Mr. Oliver shouted out, "If the mayor would only put to work some of tho policemen who are drawing pay for doing nothing that difficulty would probably be overcome somewhat." Ho refened to the mayor's refusal to re instate 1 leutem nt Spellman and Pa trolmun I. F. Jones. Tho ordinance has yet to go through common coun cil. A pioposltton was received from the Nay Aug and Elmhutst Boulevard comrany. thiough its president, C. D. Simpson, offering to sell the city the company's light of way through Nay Aug park und also the Nay Aug bridge for $11,000, the amount lepresented by the company's outstanding bonds, pro viding, however, that the city main tain a free road to the boulevard. Mr. Koch thought this an easy way out of the toll-gate-ln-the-park squab ble, and moved to refer the matter to the city engineer, city t-ollcltor, park comtnis&ioners and park committee. Tho motion ununimously prevailed. Ma or Molr sent a communication nominating Harry W. Peters ns in spector of Schultz court r.ewor. It was refetiod to committee. He also made a rerort. on the Patrolman Potter case, which ho was naked tc Investigate. Mrs. Blnghnm, who rented a house to Potter, complained in a, letter to the councils that he owed her $80, which ho would not pay. The mayor's report showed that the clilm was based on a technicality and that Potter has con fessed Judgment for the amount. Pot ter, It uppears, rellnquljhed the house because tho premises were not re paired as he claimed thev should bo. The J'cy wua left with the office boy of Mr?. Bingham's agent, George B. Davidson, and was accepted under protest The claim Is for the rent ac cruing during the period the lease had yet to run. ANIENT THE INSURANCi: BILLS. Another communication was iccelved from the mayor complaining that the foolish dallying "with the Insurance bills on the part of the auditing com mltteo rendeied the policies worthless nnd advising that they be settled. On motion of Mr. Roche, the special com mittee of the auditing committee, hav ing the bills In hand, be directed to file their report at the next meeting. Street Commlslsoner Thomas sent a communication lecommendlng that the $250 appropriation for repairing the West Mountain road which was trans ferred be reapproprlated, to be ex pended while the county jail prisoners ate at work there. It was referred to committee. An adverse report was made on the resolution directly the street commis sioner to remove the additional Hack laid by the Scranton nnllway company on Providence road between Carbon and Sterling streets. The report was adopted. A communication from City Solicitor Vosburg acompanled the re port. It set forth that under the Peo ple's Street Railway company franchise the company was entitled to build "one or more tracks with turnouts on any route they might select between Scran ton and Providence or other places." Under this franchise, Mr. Vosburg said, the company was entitled to build the extra track, and advised that If the street commlslsoner obeyed the resolu tion It would plunge the city In pro tracted and unprofitable litigation. TO INVESTIGATE SLOWE. Under the head of new business Mr. Roche Introduced the following: Whereas. It Is current report tlat a certain dlstilct encineer did, without lame, lay lalent hands on a peaceful ard inoffensltc citizen du. Inc the process of the fire at Motion's shoe store milto recently: therefore he It Uesohcd, That the fire department committee he, and they are hereby directed to invefctlgat? and report the facts to this council at Us next meeting. Mr. Oliver, with Mr. Schneider as a second, moved to lay the resolution on the table. Mr. Roche explained that the statement of the case was made to him by a reputable citizen, and to his mind It was something calling for In vestigation. Mr. Roche Bald he did not know either the district chief or the assaulted citizen and propsed the in vestigation as much out of Justice to the accused engineer aa tho offended cltzen. Mr, Oliver said the matter had been referred to the proper authority and the accused assistant chief exonerated and his action Justified, "If that Is the case," remarked Mr. Roche,. "It Is desirable to the accused, I should Judge, to have this lnveatlga-tlon. The motion to lay on the table wn killed by an overwhelming vote nnd then on motion of Mr. Roche, seconded by Mr. Coyne, the resolution was adopted, every member voting In the affirmative except Mr. Oliver . Resolutions were Introduced by Mr. Chittenden, nnd adopted unanimously, providing for tho appointment of a special committee of three members ot each branch to act, with the city con troller, In preparing a list of the bal ances or deficits In paving appropria tions, nnd recommending where thev should properly be applied, and, also, to report the present condition of the Judgments nnd Incidentals account. Another resolution by Mr. Chittenden, which also passed unanimously, directs that the city controller to transfer all balances In regular appropilatlons to the Judgments nnd Incidentals fund, and pay judgments now outstanding according to priority. Mr. Melvlu Introduced an ordinance providing thnt the city pay half the cost of repaying In front of tho Hand ley property on Penn nvenue, aniwlp. Schneider Introduced one for paving with brick Cedar avenue, from Willow street to tho far side of Birch avenue. Both were referred. Mr. Schroeder had a resolution passed directing tho street commissioner to Immediately reset the sidewalk In front of 31" Lnckawannn avenue. Resolutions, fathered by Mr. Coyne, ?ere passed, providing for fire hydrant nt the Intersections, respectively, of Prospect avenue and Maple street, Irv ing avenue and Beech street, and Pros pect avenue and Genet street. NEW SEWER ORDINANCE. Mr. McAndrew Introduced nn ordi nance for a lateral sewer on North Main avenue, from Oram boulevard to Pettebono street: n resolution directing the West Park Land company to open the gutters on North Main avenue, be tween Pettebone and Cemetery streets, and nn ordinance reapproprlatlng $!"0 to the repair of Jackson street, beyond the Delaware, Lackawanna and West ern tracks. The icsolutlon was adopt ed and the ordinances referred. The common council resolution, pro viding for the transfer of one of the two fire companies at Providence square to Bull's Head, was concurred in by a close vote. Ordinances providing for opening Poplar street across the Delaware and Hudson tracks, and for narrowing Prescott avenue, between Olive nnd Ash streets, passed first and second readings. On third reading ordinances were passed providing for a lateral sewer on Washington avenue, between New York and Marlon streets, on a portion of Delaware street, and on Railroad avenue from tho Third district main sewer to Emmet street; nlso for side walks on Gibson street and Plttston avenue. Tho annual report of the park com missioners wns received and ordered filed. In a foot-note the commission ers took occasion to state, particularly, that tho contract for Improvements at Nay Aug park was let to the lowest responsible bidder, after due advertise ment and resultant competition. CARRIERS' ROUTES CHANGED. A number of changes in the letter carneis' routes his been caused by the resignation of John R. Thomas.
