WORK WILL SOON
RESUME AT MILLS
OrderB Recently Received by the
Lackawanna Iron and Steel Com
pany Will Set the Wheels In
Motion.
As a result of several large contracts
for steel rails recently matlo by the
Pennsylvania, Ualtlmore and Ohio,
Chesapeake und Ohio and Norfolk and
Western Ilullroad companies work will
soon Ut resumed at the mills of the
Lackawanna Iron and Steel company,
which have Ucen for some time idle.
The company is one of several con
cerns among which these contracts
were divided, and, while tho exact
number of tons of rails which will he
allotted the local company is not as
yet known, still It will be a very large
one. General Manager Henry Weh
rum, In speaking to a Tribune man
yesterday about the order, said:
"While aware that these railroad
companies have made contracts with
the Lackawanna Iron and Steel com
pany, still I do not know tho extent
of the order, as I have not yet re
ceived any specido orders or notifica
tions regarding the deal, and, In fact,
know nothing definite about It.
"Neither can I state the exact date
when the mills will be re-opened, but
I should judge that work will probably
bo started within two or three weeks."
The contracts which were made by
the railroad companies were as fol
lows: The Pennsylvania railroad, 150,
000 tons, at ?2t! per ton; the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad, 40,000 tons; the
Chesapeake and Ohio, 25,000 tons, and
the Norfolk and Western railroad, 25,
000 tons. The steel companies among
which the contracts arc divided are
the Lackawanna Steel company, of
Scrantem; the Federal Steel company,
of Chicago; the Carnegie company,
the Pennsylvania Steel company, the
National Steel company and the Cam
bria Steel company, of Johnstown.
Manager Wehrum did not seem par
ticularly Impressed by the magnitude
of these orders when divided among
the companies, and in speaking of the
ease with which the company can
handle the contract said: "Why, the
South works alone can turn out 450,000
tons in a year."
The orders are given, moreover, per
specification, and will not be under
taken in a mass, but separate direc
tions and separate work must bo done
as each consignment comes In, owing
to tho various different technicalities
In the construction of them.
In speuklng about the work at pres
ent going on at Buffalo, where the gi
gantic new plant Is being built. Mana
ger Wehrum said: "Work is progress
ing very satisfactorily. The plant when
completed will be one of enormous
pze a great deal larger, of course,
than tho works here at Scranton. Work
has bcen going on during nearly the
last three? months, and, therefore,
while there are no great visible evi
dences ns yet of what has been done,
still things ure beginning to now take
some shape,
"The ofllce building, the construction
of which is in chnrge of Conrad
Schroeder, of this city, Is being rapidly
reared."

STORY TOLD BY HARRIS
Ho Said That Ho Gave Money to
Orior on Three Different Occasions.
The First Time Ho Laid S50 on a
Tablo in a Room Where He Had
Been Conversing with Grler and
Walked Out Afterwards He Gavo
Him $40 in His Room in the Hotel
Rudolph and Later at the Same
Place Gave Him Sl,400.
Such Is the public Interest In tho
cases ngalnst tho councllmen being
piosectttod by tho Men's Union that
the main court room was crowded all
of yesterday. In the morning, after
court opened, the case of the com-
monwralth asainst James .1. Orler was
called and Is being tried before Judge
H. M. Edwards. Orler Is the member
of the common council from the Third
vva'd and v. ns formerly chairman ol
that body. He in charged with solicit
ing and accppiipg bribes for his voto
In council !n connection with the
passage of the l'cense tax ordinandi,
which was before council last spring.
He Is defended by Attorneys Joseph
O'Brien, John F. Rcragg, George S.
Horn and M. A. McGiniey. and tho
case is being prosecuted by District .
Attorney Jones nnu Aiieimry .i. ,
Torrey. E. C. Newcomb nnd F. E,
Beers, private counsel for tho Men's
un'W- . . .
The prosecutor Is E. H. hturges, wno

table yesterday. During tho after-
noon coionei n. ni. jjuich, wuu in enc
prosecutor In cases against other coun
cllmen. came In and took a seat
alongside of Mr. Sturges. Among tho
interested spectators who occupied
seats within the bar enclosure were
Rev. J)r. C. E. Hoblnson and Rev. Dr.
James McLeod, of tho Second and
First Presbyterian churches. Scat-
4s..nrt tli..srrls V, n ml.ltistsisrs St-OQ fl
good sprinkling of business men and I
others prominent In tho various walks
of life.
SELECTING JURY.
The work of selecting a Jury was
begun at 9.30 and tho commonwealth
suggested that it be done in the same
manner that juries are selected In fel
onies, which gave them the entire
panel to draw from. This was ob
jected to by the attorneys for tho de
fendant, but Attorney Newcomb pte
sented an opinion of the Superior court
of a few days ago, which permits
juries in cases such as the one nt tho
bar, to be selected in that way and
the work was proceeded with. It was
12.G0 when the necessary twelve men
were secured. They are:
JOSEPH n.VCIIMA.V, farmer, Gouldsboro.
EARL CARPENTER, huckster. North Ablngton.
THOMAS HOLMES, cleik, Simpson.
E. C. HANSON, laborer. La Plume.
JAMES HARRIS, miner, Scranton.
L. 11. IIOLGYrn, student, La Plume.
ALBERT JOHNSON, plumber, Waverly.
F. S. KELLOGG, painter, Scranton.
REV. WILLIAM K. MORGAN, Scranton.
CIIAUNCF.Y NOACK, farmer, Madison.
JACOR STANTON, farmer, West Ablngton.
C. C. WILLIAMS, farmer, West Ablngton.
District Attorney Jones asked, on ac
count of the wide importance of tho
case and the great publicity given to
it, that tho jury be kept together dur
ing the trial. Judge Edwards made
an order that this be done.
When court resumed its sitting,
shortly before 2 o'clock, Mr. Newcomb
opened tho case for the commonwealth
to the jury. He said that for a lone
time It had been a matter of sreat
scandal In the city that it was neces
sary to pay money to councllmen to
secure the passage of desired legisla
tion or to defeat unfavorable lesMn
tion. So great became the scandal that
finally a number of high-minded citi
zens banded themselves together wllh
the Intention of ridding the city of this
evil.
LICENSE TAX ORDINANCE.
Mr. Newcomb went on to say that in
March of this year a license tax ordi
nance was Introduced in council which,
among other things, levied a tax of
three per cent. on(the gross receipts of
tho Scranton Ila'llway company tho
first year, this amount to be raised
gradually until It reached live per cunt,
of the gross receipts. It was not the
intention that this ordinance should
pass, Mr. Newcomb said. It was what
was known us u "sttlku," and through
members of the council It leaked out
that tho company would haw to do
something if it wanted to prevent the
passage of this ordinance.
This organization of citizens then ap
plied to a well-known detective agency
to send competent men here to Investi
gate the rumor that this ordinance
was a "strike."
"They came and did Investigate,"
Mr. Newcomb said, "and I think you
will agree with mo that this was tlu
only wny in which a crime of tills kind
could bu brought homo to thoso who
were guilty. These detectives ennui
hero and uecanu actiuuluted with vari
ous members o council. Among otheis
was the defendant, James .1. Oiler, who
said ho was thu man who handled tho
money In common council for promot
ing and (lefe.ttlug legislation, and ho
assured the detect! veo that ho could
have tho nninunt of tho tax on the
Scranton Rull.vuy company reduced
from throe, four and live pur cunt, to
ono per cent., If proper arrangements
wore matlo with him and his col
leagues. Several meetings wero hold,
and at theso Mr. Orior domuudod and
iccelved certain sum? of money for
himself and others.
"When you hear the, testimony dp.
toiled on tho stund I think you will
suy it was tlmu that these good clil
ztnn banded together; that tills was a
foul blot on tho city, und that you will
have no hesitation In saying ttmi this
man is guilty,"
HEARING TESTIMONY.
W. A. Lynott, the clerk of tho com
mon council, wnu the first witness
called and produced tho record of
council showing the election of James
J, Orler to the common council In 1S03
and his tuklng a seat In that bodv,
Evun Morris, assistant city clerk,
testified that the ordinance produced
by the commonwealth was the one
known as the license tax ordinance,

THEY OUGHT NOT
BE REAPPOINTED
That Is Councilman Vaughan's Opin
ion About Ward Assessors Who
Make Poor Assessments.
Councilman D. W. Vaughan, who has
started the Investigation of this year's
,.u. ntancusr,!,f finlrl vnntnrrlnv thnr
h wouV,i.cndeavor to have steps taken
.,.., ,h ., nRgi.,Sors from re-
appointing any ward assessors who
have made mistakes In making the as
sessment for 1900.
"I understand," said he, "that It has
been discovered by the board of revis
ion and appeal that many clerical
blunders have been made this year by
the ward assessors, and that In one
Instance one of them has refused to
attend the meetings of tho board of
revision, though compelled to by law

only every three years, when tho tri
ennial assessment Is made, and that
In the intervening two years the city
assessors themselves shsould do the
work of assessing. Then If there's
anyone to bo held responsible they will
be the ones.
"It's a well known fact that the
ward assessor has come to be a great
L
In his ward, a sort of little
king. How could this be if he just
wont right ahead and did his whole
duty without showing favor to any
one. Tho Investigation will have the
effect of making thorn more careful
in the future, and thnt will be a good
thing."
