TELL ABOUT IT.
A Scrantoa Vltleen Is Pleased to Do
It for the Benefit of Others.
When you know a good thin;, tell it
It will not lessen Its goodness,
But will do good to others.
There's more misery just like It.
There are lots of lame backs In
Beranton.
It's a busy placo and backs are used,
There's urinary trouble to a largo ex
tent. Colds affect the kidneys.
The kidneys are the cause, not the
colds.
Keep them In shape and life Is life.
Doan's Kidney Pills do perfect work.
Arc for kidneys only.
Scranton people testify to their merit.
Here's a case of It:
Mrs. E. Williams, of 127 North Sum
ner avenue, Hydo Park, says: "I had
severe pain In the small of my back
extending upward and around my
waist. At night It was impossible to
sleeD Very long In one poKltion and nt
times the pain made mo so nervous
I lay awake for hours turning from
one side to the other trvlng to find n
comfortable position. There was nlso
a kidney weakness that was very an
noying nnd distressing nt times. I
was In such misery that I was unable
to do my work about tho house, and
In fact I was completely used up. I
resorted to the services of a doctor and
ho did me some good, but I was far
from being a well woman. A l?dv
friend recommended Doan's Kidney
Pills to me so highly that I got thpm
at Matthews Bros', drug store. The
flrt box did me so much good that I
continued tho treatment and took six
boxes altogether. I received more re

than from all other remedies I had

Wants a New Trial.
Reasons why the verdict should be
set aside and a new trial granted wore
filed yesterday by Attorney C. Bnlen
tlne in the case of Michael Cunnlng
hnm, who was tried last week for
committing an aggravated assault and
battery on John Astock.
It is alleged that the indictment on
which Cunningham was tried was not
signed by the foreman of the Brand
jury; that there was not sufficient
proof of the loss of the original indict
ment nnd that the court erred In re
ceiving a verdict in No. 1, whin the
defendant and his counsel were wait
ing in No. 2 for the verdict t-i be re
turned.the case having been tried there
before Judge Love. No opportunity
was given the defendant to poll th !
jury. It Is nlso alleged that it is not
the verdict of the jury fjr tie reason '
that it was the intention to conv'c
the defendant of simnlc .v.-wiult ar.d
battery.

MARKED BILLS
ARE OFFERED
(Concluded from FAffe 5.
" "' I !! - ........I... .11.. I h-t
this first occasion with arler, Mr. Cole
man was present practically alt the
time. Mr. Drier said he would not tnlk
save In tho presence of Mr. Coleman.
He told Qrler that hovwas prepared to
give him money, Coleman having ex
plained In advance who witness was
nd what he wanted. Harris said ho
told Qrler that $200 a man was his
limit and Orler said that was rather
small. The witness then went over
the talk he had with Qrler about C.
M. Clarke, the president of tho Sci-nn-ton
ttaltway company and Frnnk Sllli
mnn, Jr., tho manager of that com
pany. COYNE WENT WITH HIM.
Tho meeting on April 00 was then
taken up. He was In tho dining room
of tho Itudolph with T. J. Coyne when
lie received a telephone message from
Coleman to come to the b.ikery. Coyne
said ho would go with him that ho
wanted to talk the matter over. They
were at the bakery for three-quarters
of nn hour and tnlkcd over the matter
of getting the ordinance amended. Ho
did not make any tender of money to
Qrler directly, but $1,400 was mention
ed ns at the previous meeting. Tho
witness was positive the councllmen
did not say they could fix htm for
what he had said to them.
Ho was asked If ho was not told that
he was suspected of being a detective.
Coleman, ho said, told him that a man
named Shea, a detective, had been ask
ed by the councllmen to look him over
and find out who he was. Shea report
ed that he (Harris) was all right.
Continuing ho jvont on to say that
Coyne wanted to handle tho money in
select council and assured him the
amendment would go through like wild
fire. Coyne told him they would have
to bo careful for they were Jumping
on tho councllmen, the grand Jury
was investigating them and council
men were inclined to be suspicious of
everyone.
Harris was cross-examined at
length about his room in the Hotel Itu
dolph, the furniture it contained and
where the articles of furniture were
located. He said he had the chairs S)
arranged that the only one available
to sit on was one facing tho door
connecting rooms 24 and 25. Qrler told
him ho might as well give him the
money for he would have to do so
eventually.
WERE BLOOD SUCKERS.
"These councllmen are blood-suckers,"
said Grier. "Thoy will take your
monev and not do anything for vou.
I never give them a cent until a meas
ure Is signed by the mayor or oassed
over his veto."
May 2 when he met Giler, Calnln
and Coleman at the bakery, Calnln
was present during the whole conver
sation. Toward the end of the talk
Grier said he had been under some
exoense and witness took out $50 and
laid it on the table. Grier did not
ask for this SZO, but he did as'; for
$1,400. When witness laid the money
on the table Grier was the only other
person In tho room, Calpin and Cole
man having gone out a few minutes
before. Ho does not know that Grier
took the money for after laying it on
the table ho walked out.
Witness was asked if he did not send
a letter to Grier and said he had no
recollection of having done so. A let
ter was then produced addressed to
Grier which Harris admitted was in
his handwriting. Mr. O'Brien pro
duced two $20 bills and asked the wit
ness if they were not the two that ho
gave to Grier In the Hotel Rudolph on
May 9. Harris admitted that the bills
produced were the ones in question,
identifying them by marks they con
tained. On May 11 he got $1,400 from Mr.
Whitney, who said It was given to him
by F. E. Beers. About 6.B0 that even
ing Grier came in and after he had
been there about ten or fifteen minutes
he was given the $1,400. He did not
take the number of these bills as was
his custom because some one else had
done that. He had not the memoran
dum of the numbers but knows It ex
ists. Grier put the bills ion his knee
and counted them over. Witness told
Grier to be careful and not lose them
nnd Grier replied that there was no
danger, that ho had before handled
$20,000 of that kind of money.
IN THE AFTERNOON.
At this point court adjourned for
the noon recess and when It resumed
at 1:80 p. m. the cross-examination
of Harris was resumed. Hi; was ques
tioned at length about the meetlng-s
he had with Qrler nubsequent to those
in was examined on It- tho morning.
Grier nt one of these meetings during
a conversation about the new street '
i nil way company said it would take
at least -jr00 a man to dp anything
ngalust that ns the other side was ,
spending money freely. i
Ho admitted bavins ben out until
2, 3 and 5 o'clock In the morning with i
Colnman who ho said never seemed to I
sleep. He admitted drinking a good .
deal while around with the council- '
ln-n, but never become intoxicated. '
Han Is denied very positively that ho
hud ever been into.ii'at.ed in tho I
Opera cafo on Spruce f-treel with two
iHimen or that ho was ejected from
tbut place In as positive tcims ho do
nlu'l having been nightly in tho com
pany of lewd women while here. Dur
ing his meetings with Qrler at ths
Rudolph Whltnty and Anderson were
tho only persons who wore in No. 25.
No ono In No. 23 could boo into No. 21.
On re-dlreet examination Harris paid
that ho went to naloons a good deal
"cause they were the places he wa3
most apt to find tho councllmen. Ho
went to houses of itl-fnmo with E, A.
Whitney and A. P. Anderson to get
evidence about their paying for pro
tection and to whom tho money wag
paid.
WHITNEY SWORN.
That concluded Harris' testimony
and E. A. Whitney was called and
hwnrn. Ho is 34 years of age and has
been a pilvat detective for 12 years.
For three years he has been employed
by the Sawyer agency of New York
und was sent to this city by that
agency. On May 1 ho saw Qrior at
the Hotel Rudolph with Harris, Wit.
ni'SB was In No. 2ii with Anderson.
Thoy had made holes in the panel
and through theso thuy could seo what
was going on in the other room and
hear what was said. Grjcr taid tho
Scranton Railway company would
Jmvo to do business with him If they
wanted the ta reduced. He could
have It done for It.ioi down and $1,
400 mote when tho work was com
pleted, On May 0 he again raw Grier ut the
Hotel Rudolph n the morning, Orler
said ho had the rmini'llinen In line
and was willing to go ahead as soon
as the $1,400 was produced. Grier also
said ho was willing to go wjth Harrh I
to Philadelphia nnd nee President
Clarke and ecnvlnce the latter that his
company would have lo do business
with him (Qrler). There was some
talk about tho franchise anolhor trol-l.-y
r.oinpnny was Itylr.t; to get and
then Harrh gave Qrler MC on account.
Mny 11 Qrler called again nnd wit
ness !av Hartli giro Qrler $1,4C0, He
raw Harris count over the money to
Qrler who placed it on his knee and
ulso counted It and tlitn placed It In
his poekot. Ho saw Qrler nt tho
Aeademv of Music on May 10, and nt
the Rudolph on May JO, when Qrlor
sold he wanted ifiOJ for throe addi
tional councllmen ho wanted to keep
In line for Harris. Qrler told Harris
It would tnkp at lenRl fGOO a man to
block the franchise for the new com
pany. Personnlly Qrler could not do
anything because ho was handling
money for tho new company but would
Introduce him to a man who would
hundle tho money for him.
WHITNEY ON THE RACK.
The cross-examination "of Whitney
was concluded by Attorney John F.
Scmgg. Aftur coming here ho visited
Mr. Sturges and Mr. Beers. The wit
ness described In detail the holes they
put In the door between 24 and 23 to
enable them to see and hear. Whllo
In Ibis city bo visited houses of Ill
fame three or four limes nnd spent
money thisro which he obtained from
Captain Snwyer for expenses. On sev
eral occasions lie got money fiom Mr.
l!"ei3. Once he got $!!o0 or $300 and
on another oecaslnn $l,400. This money
he got at the request of Harris and
turned It over. Ho might have ob
tained money on another occasion but
wns not sure about that.
The witness denied that he, Harris
and Anderson had divided up the $1,
400 among themselves and then ar
ranged to put It on Orler. Mr. Scrai'g
p.Miinlned Whitney at some length as
to the amount ho spent In gambling
houses, houses of Ill-fame and sa
loons In this city. The greater part
of the money the witness said was
spent In gambling bouses but It would
nut amount to $r,0 all told.
Whitney admitted that he played
poker with Harris In this city at their
hotel from la to Sunday night of this
week until about r, o'clock Monday
morning. Ho denied that he was pulled
In a raid of tho Opera cafe on Sprue j
street while he was here ir the spring
with :evetal lewd women, and of hav
ing offered SCO If he was not exposed.
The moniy he spint in these places

Autumn Dress, Goods
When we say (as we do say) that there never was such another showing as th!i In
any Scranton store, we speak with the calm confidence of accurate kuowlodge. Facts
as big as this need no verbal embroidery: No exaggeration could be bigger than
inauy of our simple truths. Largest iu quantities, greatest in varieties, supreme in
exclttsivencss, unrivalled in beauties. A quartette of stout claims.
Add a fifth-1-we permit uo lower price than our lowest price. Whatever we sell
is fairlv priced, and no price is fair that is higher than others ask for the same qual
ities. So, when we say fair prices, we say it all.
It was reserved for the style setters of this season to give the most positive dis
tinction to plain weaves. Tlieir mandate is praiseworthy and purely sensible. All
women admire and desire the simple elegance of unobtrusive fabr cs. We give ira
pulse to the prevailing tendency by offering unusual values in Broadcloths, Vene
tians, Camel's Hair Serges, Poplins, Whipcords, Prunellas and other weaves. The
quotations represent an effort to convey an idea of the true gojduess of these materi
als. Plowever, types have proved incapable of performing the task. Eyesight is our
main reliance. Come and see the disp.ays. That's the convincing way.

Chapter II About Black Dress Goods
Knowing ones predict an increased popularity for black dress fabrics this fall and winter. There seems
to be mucli plausibility in the prophesy, judging Irom this remarkable collection, enlarging almost
daily. Makers have been vieing with each other toward that end. Never h,ive they produced designs
in black goo.ls so rich, never variety so extensive. Perhaps this is more particularly true of the Vene
tians, Prunellas and Camel's Hair effects. And there's a vast number of line silk and wool fabrics hera
now. Altogether the gathering is an interesting one worth studying. Visit the Black Dress Goods
Department, just as vou would any other department in the store without feeling any obligation to
buv. Just a little list, illustrative of range ol choice :
English Broadcloth, 54 inches wide,
$1.35 $1.50, $3.00, $3.50
