THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-TUESDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1900.

CANNOT BREAK THE
CONTRACT JUST YET
COURT REFUSES TO REOPEN THE
EQUITY CASE.
Mr. ComeBys' Attempt to Use the
Testimony Adduced Before Alder
man Fuller as a Lever to Get at
tho Asphalt Contract Again Was
Not Successful Jacob E. Shlffer
Wants to Compel the Building In
spector to Give Him a Permit.
Other Court-Matters.
'Attorney C. ComeBys asked the court
yeBtertlay mornlnB to reopen tho
equity suit ot William Fnrreli and H.
Campbell nirnlnHt the Harbor Asphalt
company, In which n decree was hand
ed down by tho court some time ago,
nustalnlng tho validity of the contract.
Tho object of tho -Hint wast to have
tho contract nntercd Into between the
city and the Harbor Asphalt 1'nvlnn
company for the repair of tho city
rtrects for ten ycnt-H declared Inynlld.
Mr. Comeprys wanted the caste re
opened on the ground that the testi
mony taken recently before Alderman
Fuller In tho rouncllmunlc Investiga
tion proved that the contract was ob
tained' by bribing city officials. At
torney I. H. )urn., counsel for the
Harbor company, opposed the motion
on tho ground that Mr. ComeBys had
not offered tn prove the bribery be
alleges and made no offer to show
that ho If capable ot proving it. As a
matter of fact, Mr. Burns said, Mr.
Ooinogys could not prove it for the
reason that tho lips of the men would
lie scaled by the provision ot the con
stitution, which ullowii a man to re
fuse to answer If by so doing ho will
incriminate himself. The testimony
bslng taken bofote Alderman Fuller
cannot be used for any other purpose.
Judge Archbald said the testimony
ought to be the same s adduced on
nn application for a. now trial on
the ground of after discovered evi
dence. Nothing of thld kind bad been
attempted.
"On the other hand," continued
Judge Archbald, "here for a fie months
there has been a final decree of this
court on tills bill. Presumably tho
parties have acted upon that, tho city
of Scranton on the one side, the Bar
ber Asphalt company on the other;
the one doing the work, the other
making payments for it. Now by this
rehearing not only would we wipe out
the decree but would enable the par
ties to go back and tear things up
from the beginning. Any decree that
would be made after a reopening of
the case would go back to the very
beginning. Wo are not inclined to do
that."
Sniffer Wants a Permit.
Jacob 12. Shlffer. through Attorney C.
Balentine, filed a petition yesterday
asking: tho court to grant a rule on
Building Inspector T. B. Jackson to
compel him to show cause why ho
nhoulcl not grant a permit to Shlffer
for a largo building he desires to erect
at Franklin avenue and Mulberry
street. Tho rule was granted and made
returnable next Monday.
Shlffer began the construction of ".
building some time ago on the prop
erty in question, but was restrained by
an injunction obtained by City Solic
itor Vosburir, who alleged that Shiffer
was building on the ten-foot reserva
tion. It is alleged that since then the
plans have been modified, but evidently
Uiov do not as yet meet with the av-
iroval of the building inspector.
i He Beat His Bride.
Mrs. Raclmcl Hopkins is seeking a
divorce from Thomas Hopkins, to
whom she was married on April 22,
180S, by Rev. W. II. Pierce, D. D., at
his home in Wilkes-Barre. The libel
in tho case was filed yesterday by At
torney W. M. Bunnell.
Mrs. Hopkins alleges that within a
month of their marriage her husband
beat her most brutally and dragged
her about their homo. Ho was fre
quently drunk and called her vile
names. On August 2S, 1S0S, Mrs. Hop
kins says her husband deserted her and
has not lived with her since. She be
lieves he is now in Philadelphia. After
their marriage they lived for a short
time In this city and then took up their
residence in Plttston.
Court House News Notes.
Prior to the adjourning of court yes
terday Judge B. W. Archbald natural
ized a number of candidates for citi
zenship. Andrew Gordon, who Is charged with
burglary, entered ball before Judge
Archbald yesterday. Thomas O, Doud
became his bondsman in the sum of
$500.
In the equity case of tho Tripp Farm
Many a woman dresses to ro out, feela
Irresolute, sits down, and falls into a fit
of despondent musinp;. Ask her what's
the matter, and she'll probably answer
"Just the blues." And what are the
bines? Only another name, in general,
for a disordered liver and a diseased
itomach. Cleanse the" liver, heal the
gtomacb, purify the blood, and there'll
be no more blues. It cait be done by
tiie use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery, This medicine puts the dis
eased organs of digestion and nutrition
Into a condition of sound health. It
eliminates from the blood all impure and
poisonous substances, and cleanses the
Clogged liver. It contains neither al
cohol nor narcotics.
X bad liver complaint for the past fifteen
years, complicated with dyspepsia and gait
Stonei," write Mrs. N. Bender, of 461 Him St.,
Cshkoih, Wit. "I doctqred with seven of our
Sromiucnt doctor, aad not one or all of them
ave done me the good, cor begun to do what
our medlciucs have. I have used three bottle
of Dr. Fierce' Golden Medical Discovery, one
vial of hU 'Pleaiaut Pellet,' and one bottle of
Dr. Fierce' Favorite Prescription, and have
mined about eighteen poind since I first began
take these remedies."

Land company against the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western company
the court made an order yesterday
directing the plnlntlff to file a replica
tion to tho defendant's answer. The
case is set down for trial In equity
court.
Ella May Layman, who owns a lot
on Laurel street, Carbondale, yester
day asked for a rule to compel Maria
Cox and Lydla Brydcn to bring an no
tion In ejectment for tho land In ques
tion. She alleges that she wants to sell
the land, but cnnnot.do so because the
Cox and Bryden women claim to own
the land. In order to have the title to
the land cleared, the petitioner wants
this action brought.
Attorney James H. Torrey, represent
ing the Scranton Gas and Water com
pany, asked for a rule yesterday 'to
show cause why the Delaware, Lacka
wanna and "Western company should
not bo cited for contempt for violating
an order In an injunction case between
the parties. The Injunction was to re
strain the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western from dumping refuse und
waste matter at Nay Aug In such a
way as to contaminate the water sup
ply of the Gas and Water company.
Major Everett Warren, counsel for the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western,
said that ho had written a letter to
General Superintendent Clarke, of that
company, calling his attention to the
fact that it is charged by the Gas and
Water company officials that the terms
of the agreement entered into at the
time of the injunction are being vio
lated. Court took the papers.

SCRANTON'3 SHOPPING CENTER,
A Startling SI Event
As Broad in Importance as
The Use of Silks by Women.
There is not a womau anywhere who loves chaVming waists, exquisite gowht
or beautiful silk petticoats who is not intensely interested in such an offering as
an important transaction of last week brings out in the Silk Department today.
Big things in silk selling are a part of our daily store life, and we wouldn't waste
much time or talk on limited quantities or common-place values. The silks of this
offering are neither limited or common. Thousands of yards remarkable aside
from their cheapness.
The best feature of the offering, aside from the ridiculously low price, is the
broad variety from which to choose almost every variety of fancy silks is in
cluded, making it an offering to meet every need as well as every taste.i There
can be no disappointment among such a broad collection of high-class silk
elegance.
Part ofthe good fortune is at the cost of the manufacturers, other lots are
smartly reduced from our own stocks.
A HI NT-
Persian Striped Fancy , Taffeta, Hemstitched Striped Taffeta, Beautiful Warp
Printed Taffetas in the pastel grounds.
Fancy Striped Taffetas, with open stripes, dividing many colors." Fancy
Plaid Silks, in various weaves and new color combinations.
Rich Corded Silks, Polka Dots aud Brocades, all in values worth from
$3.00 to $3.00 per yard.
Special Price for All, $1.00 Yard.
