Twelve case's ef contagious diseases were teported, four of scarlet fever, sW of typhoid fever, one of mem. brancous croup and one of diphtheiia. The Importance of the work com mitted to the grand Jury which began Its sessions yesterday was attested by the unusually lengthy, thoughtful and earnest address to which It was called to lTsten from Judge Edwards before entering upon Us duties. He Impressed upon the Jurors the high honor of being called to such important work, the responsibilities which attach to the position, and the necessity of the most conscientious, fearless and unbiased performance of their duties. Then taking up the mat ter of liquor law violators, ho said It Is a notorious fact that the county of Lackawanna from one end to the other has been disgraced by these viola tions. In his Judgment the fault lay more with the system than with the men. Constables might be able to enforce the law In agricultural districts, but In counties like Lackawanna, Luzerne, Schuylkill, Allegheny and Philadel phia, they fall absolutely. Leaving aside the question of the constables doing their duty, the system is Inade quate, he said. After rommendlng the purpose or tne Individuals who have handed them selves together to secure the enforce ment of the liquor laws In this coun ty, and urging tho Jurors to do their shato In the work, tho judge passed to the councllmanlo bribery cases and expressed tho hope that every whisper of corruption In our councils and school board will be forever hushed, and that we will enter upon our exist ence as a second class city with a clean bill of health. He asked the Jurots to carefully and thoroughly Investigate these cases and do their full duty fearlessly, dispas sionately, without 111 will, favor or af fection, without knowing the persons Involved and without any regaid for the personality of the defendant or his possible connection with some oth er member of the grand jury. Speaking of the matter of "detective evidence," the Judge said there was no Just reason for undue prejudice against this class of evidence. In some cases It Is the only means of securing a conviction outside of a confession. Unless evidence of this kind Is per mitted and given Its full value, crime would run rampant, he said. The charge was attentively listened to by a large audience. Including many of the city's most prominent men, among them the leading spirits of the Glen's union and Municipal league and a number of clergymen. Mark L. Smith was appointed fore man. He wanted to be excused, but Judge Edwards Insisted on him serv ing. The only Juror excused was Se lect Councilman Edward James, Jr. It Is not likely that the Jury will he In session more than two weeks. Just before adjournment last night they took up one of the councllmanlc bri bery cases. Detective J. S. Harris, the psettdo, trolley company lobbyist, who claims to have entiapped the accused councllmen, was the only witness ex amined. He was before the jury for half an hour and will be called again today. E. A. Whitney and A. B. An derson are two other witnesses In the cuse.

He Is the Man Who Shot Adolph Friedmonsky. Nicholas DI Talla, of Old Forge, "Was arrested late Sunday night by County Detective Leyshon, and was esterday held in $1,000 ball, on the charge of feloniously wounding Adolph Fried monsky, of Barbertown. It seems that It was DI Talla who was assaulted by a crowd of striking miners, who ilrst infuriated him by calling him "scab." and not Joe Scavo, as at first sup posed. Scavo was popularly believed to be tho man who did tho shooting, and Friedmonsky himself, when asked by a Tribune man, Sunday, who It was that shot him, promptly replied, "Joe Scavo." Detective Leyshon made a diligent search Sunday night, nnd at last found DI Talla, very much bat tered and bruised from tho blows he had received at tho hands of the strik ing miners and Polanders who beat him, after Constable Henry had sep arated him from Joe Denonko, tho man who was tho original cause of the trouble. DI Talla was yesterday morning given a hearing by Judge Kelly, and held In $1,C00 ball, gn the charge of felonious wounding. Joseph Rogers and Vlncenzo Vlencardo became his bondsmen, Evening Piano Lessons. Young people who are engaged dur ing the day are registering for even ing piano lessons, at the Conservatory of Music, 601 Linden street, at $30 per year.

No particularly pointed questions were addressed to the constables when they presented their periodical returns. Judco Edwards' silence was, however, eloquent of disgust. Hero Is the ex tent of the discoveries of Illegal liquor selling made by all the constables: Fell township, Theodore Yonasky; Sends a Communication to tho School Board, Setting Forth That His In vestigations Convince Him That the Board Proposed to Pay too Much for the Property, and Ho Could Not Bring Himself to Ap prove of the Deal Referred Back to Commltteo Those Window Shades. As a result of City Controller How ell's Investigation of the deal for the McNally lots in the Sixth ward, the school board will likely reconsider Its action. Tho following communication was read at last night's meeting: To the Honorable the Hoard of School Control. Gentlemen: I return herewith voucher of P. J. McNally for first pajment on lots intended for site of No. 29 school. Against tho consummation of this transaction came protests from taxpajers so urgen. and em phatic that I determined to make a personal investigation. This I hive done, and I beg to submit here with a report of two rcputablo real estate view ers, Mcsxrs. O. 1', Reynolds and Oeorge Cooper. From the appraisement of the properties Involved Irf tho transaction (a most conservative one in my opinion), it villi be seen that there Is an apparent profit to the seller of $..i,2(Xi, but not considering this loss at all, the fact that the committee of your honorable body can now ac quire the lot adjoining the present school site, belonging In Mrs. Corcoran, for the sum of $2,500, and a frontage larger by twintj-tivc feet, af fording greater space for pla.v -ground for the school childien; and, further, by so doing save tho present school property Itself, Is a matter, It would seem to me, that should be caicfully considered, for jou will see that by retelling to the voucher that terms of sale are as follows: l'unlnsc price of McNally lot", not in cluding buildings thereon 1,300 00 hie hiding present school site, value of lot, appraised ai cording to value placed on McNally lots 3,00(1 Ofl Value of building thereon 1,000 00 S,H00 00 Net value cf propeily acquired 4,S00 00 Loss by the transaction 5.4,000 m The bid of Mrs. Jolm Corcoran as submitted to your committee I am unable al this writing to find, but I am Informed that it was $J,.'i0O. If acquired even at tills high figure it is patent to jour honorable body a great saving would be effected, both in money and additional giound. It might, perlnps, be well, to suggest that your honorable body view the property In a body and see for yourselves if the facts set forth in the above are not fully borne out. Very respectfully, I!. Howell, City Controller. K-.dras Howell, esq , City Controller. Dear Sir: As you requested on the 4th inst., we viewed the McNally lots recently purchased by the board of control in the Sixth ward, togeth er with No, 29 school premises, and wo e of the opinion that $2,100 and the school propeity is all that the city should pay after allowing Mr. McNally to move the buildings fiom bis lots, and taking, also, into consideration the city's use of the old school building, during the construction of the new one. Permit us to observe that the property adjoining the school premises on the outh, owned by Mrs. John Corcoran (lot 51150 feet) can be bought for 2,"00 (e high figure, too, we think). This sum at tb" most would be all that the city would be r , .ired to pay for addi tional land, and would then be in possession of twentv-flve feet moie frontage for jard room than by taking the McNally lots, save $1,S00 and have the old school building to dispose of, which could probably be sold for a sum sufficient at least to psy the rental of a building for the use of the district until tho completion of the new btructme. Very respectfully, O. F. Reynolds, George Cooper. Mr. Roche said Mrs. Corcoran's offer was $3,500, and referred the board to the proposals, submitted at the time the board advertised for offers of prop erty in that neighborhood. Mr. Jennings thought it best to refer the whole matter back to the commit tee. "If we have made a mistake, we are ready to rectify It." said he. "Let the commltteo carefully Investigate the matter and bring in a detailed re port." Mr. Gibbons, a member of the build ing committee, said the first price asked for the Corcoran lot was $5,000. This led him to believe that tho board was getting a bargain on the McNally lots. Mr. Jennings' motion prevailed. BIDS FOR WINDOW SHADES. Bids for window shades for Nos. 2, 9 and 3S were on the secretary's desk, and he asked if he would open them. Mr. Barker said the shades bought by the building committee were already on No. 9. Mr. Roche presented a tele gram, dated today, from P. E. Flood, of Wllkes-Batre, stating that the shades ordered by the building com mittee weio at the station, and would be put up tomorrow. On a vote to open the bids, the divis ion was as follows: Ayes Messrs. Shires, II. O'.Malley, Roche, Dr. O'Malley, bchaeffer, Walsh, Gibbons 7. Najs Messrs.

Constable John Ticrncy's claim against Cor nelius fsmith for costs and witness fees, was re ferred for adjudication to Attorney Thomas P. Duffy. In the motion of the rule to open the final confirmation of the report of view era of the new load in Carbondalo township, court ordered a ie argument. In the case of B. M. Winton against the Del aware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad com pany, the rule to draw money out of court was discharged. Judge Edwards extended till September 17, 1000, the time for filing the application for the annexation of adjacent lots and other tracts of land to the borough of Taj lor. The hearing on Hie Injunction was continued in the case of the New York, Ontario and West ern Railroad company against the Northwest Coal company, and by agreement a rule was grnnted. Court made an order directing that at the next general election, the voters of the Fiist ward of Taylor shall vote on the question of changing the polling place from its present loca tion, to tho comer of Oak and First stieets. In a lengthy opinion, Judge Edwards sua tained the exceptions on the pait of the trustees to the report of the audi to,- appointed to dis tribute the share of W. II. Winton, deceased, in the estate of Catharine Winton, deceased. The ccurt finds that the share of W. H. Winton, of the funds in the hands of the cuecutors must be distributed to the trustees named in the will, excepting, of course, the portion belonging to the children of A. II. Winton. visor of music, for permission to or ganize private classes for higher courses In music for teachers was re ferred to tho teachers' committee.

A proposition was received from somo medicine peddler to give the pub lic school pupils free fiddling lesson on Saturdays, If he was permitted to solicit their help In disposing of his nostrum?. The board said go ahead. A rule was adopted that others than graduates of the High school who wish to enter the training school must se cure a certificate from Superintendent Howell that they are qualified to take the course. Captain May, for the kindergarten committee, recommended the hiring of four pianos for the four kindergarten schools. The recommendation was adopted. L. B. Powell's bid of $130 was tho lowest and was adopted. Janitor Rudolph Buenzll was trans ferred from old No. C to new No. 28. His salary Is to be fixed later. His claim of a month's salary for cleaning old No. 5 during vacation was referred to the building committee. "Before adjourning," said Mr. Evans, "I want you to hear a personal state ment. I want to make an apology for the rather unparliamentary language I used at the last meeting, nnd I ask tho hoard's pardon for being unparlia mentary. "But charges were made against mo that I had $1,500 worth of work done without authority of tho board. I ask that a committee be appointed to make an Investigation of these charges." GIBBONS EXPLAINED. ' Mr. Gibbons slowly arose, with a rather bashful smile, and began to ex plain how It had all ocourred, and how he was as sorry about it as Mr. Evans was. He learned later that he was wrong in his charge; that the work had not been advertised, but he also learned that the work was the replac ing, at a cost of $1,200 or $1,500, of a wall that was built only four years ago. "I beg pardon for what I did, but I'd do it again under the same circum stances." PACIFIC REMARKS. When the laughter had subsided, Mr. Gibbons turned to Mr. Evans and said: "You know you were a party to that and" "I was not a party to It," hotly re plied Mr. Evans. "But you wete." rejoined Mr. Gib bons. "I was not," emphatically declared Mr. Evans. Mr. Roche put a restraining hand on Mr. Gibbons' shoulder, Mr. Eynon leai 1 over to calm Mr. Evans, Presi dent Jayne rapped vigorously with his gavel, and everybody but tho combat ants laughed uproarously. "All right, all right," shouted Mr. Gibbons, waving his hand above his head ns In token of truce. "He makes a motion to nppolnt a committee to Investigate him. I second that mo tion." The motion prevailed, and President Jayno named Captain May, Dr. O'Mal ley and Mr. Schvvass as the commit tee. At the suggestion of Mr. Gibbons, tho whole board will accompany Jhe committee Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock In going to Mr. Evans' baili wick to make the investigation.
