TO LOOK OVER
ASSESSMENT
COMMITTEE TO INVESTIGATE
APPOINTED LAST NIGHT.
Mr. Vnttghan Wanted to Postpone
Matter Temporarily Until More
Data Could Be Secured but Mr.
Plnn Insisted on the Committee Be
ing AppointedViaduct Ordinance
Passed Two Headings After Argu
mentMayor's Communication on
Police Removals.
Councilman D. W. Vatighan decided
Just before last night's meeting of the
select council, upon the advice of .sev
eral of his conferees, that It would be
advisable lo postpone the Introduction
of a resolution providing for an Inves
tigation of this year's assessment until
inoro Rpeclflc data was secured. The
investigation was started, however, by
Councilman Wade M. Finn.
When Mr. Finn learned Hint Mr.
Vaughan had decided to postpone tem
porarily his investigation, he went over
and asked him if he would object to
his moving that an Investigating com
mittee foe appointed. The gentleman
from tho Nineteenth said he would not
object.
Mr. Finn accordingly moved that a
speclnl committee of five be appointed
to Investigate the assesHment, and the
motion was unanimously adopted.
Chairman Wagner announced the fol
lowing as members of such a commlt
tecp: Messrs. Finn, Thomas, LIdstone,
Vaughan and O'Boyle.
The viaduct ordinance passed first
nnd second readings after a little fight.
When It was called up by Mr. McCann,
Mr. Clemons took the floor and made
a brief speech, opposing the measure
on tho ground that it provided for an
Increase of the city's Indebtedness be
yond the limit ilxed by law. "I've heard
the damages estimated from J300.000
up," said he, "but not from $300,000
down."
AN AMENDMENT.
Mr. O'Boyle at this juncture intro
duced an amendment providing for the
striking out of the word "immediate
ly" before tho clause directing the city
clerk to advertise for bids for the con
stitution of the viaduct upon the pass
age of the measure and Inserting the
following: "Upon the passage of this
ordinance and when the damages to
property have been ascertained and ap
proved by tho city councils by a ma
jority vote of each branch thereof, the
city clerk shall advertise," etc.
Mr. Roche remarked that the effect
of such an amendment would be the
complete modification of the whole
question. Mr. Chittenden hoped the
amendment would be adopted because,
as he said:
"This year the indebtedness has al
ready been increased $330,000 at 3Vi per
cent., and this means an increase of
$GOO,000 at G per cent. The passage of
this measure as it is at present means
that the taxpayers will bo soaked two
mills additional next year In tho tax
levy." The amendment was finally lost
by the following vote:
Yeas Kov, Chittondcr., Schneider, Clemons,
O'lloylc, Vaughan, Wagner. 7.
Xays rinn, Cotcllo, Thomas, Williams, .lames,
Ttoehc, Mchin, Shea, LIdstone, MrCanu, Olhor,
Schroedcr, Cojnc lit.
The ordinance was then passed on
first and second ic-adings, much to
the satisfaction of the large contin
gent of West Scrantonians who were
seated in the back row of seats.
Mayor Moir sent in the following
communication, regarding the police
removals:
ABOUT TIIE REMOVALS.
To tho Honorable the Select Council.
Gentlemen: I bejj leaxe to remind joii that
on Miy 17, 1000, Police Officer M, F. Spcllman,
I. F. Jones and John Pctiiter weic iemoed from
tho police force for came.
I recommended for your consideration as p.i
dolmen, Chailes Miller, John Malott ami John
Add; nun. You took action in the case of Piles
ler, appiowil his ieinov.il, and continued the ap
pointment of J. Add man. There are still two
acancles in our police force and I respectfully
urge upon jour honoiablo body to take action
on Malott and .Miller, the men nubmiltcd to jou
for continuation. Respectfully oiih.
James Moir, Mayor.
When Clark Ltivelle had finished
reading the members looked around at
one another and smiled as the motion
was made and adopted to have the
communication received and filed.
Mr. Costello presented a resolution,
which was ununlmously adopted, di
recting the city solicitor to request the
three local judges to carefully examine
viewers bills in the future to prevent
exorbitant charges.
He explained that he Introduced the
resolution because of a recent viewers'
bill which was approved by court and
which was very exorbitant. It was
for the assessment of seventy-four
properties In the Eleventh ward for
sewer purposes, he said. The three
viewers were each allowed ninety-one
days at $5 a day, or a total of $1,363,
for the assessment of thc3o seventy
four lots, all close together. This he
characterized as being "pretty near a
steal."
Mr. Clemons remaiked that the city
solicitor should have -gone Into court
and filed exceptions to tho bill before
tho time limit for the filing of such
exceptions passed,
WILL BETAIX CHECK.
A communication was read from It.
A. Malouc, of Lancaster, who was re
cently awarded tho contract for tho
big sowtu' In tho Fifth, Sixth and Eigh
teenth waids. He said that pressure
of business prevented his accepting thu
contract and asked that his certified
chock for $l,r-00 be returned to him. As
the check was required for just such
an emergency, council decided to re
tain tho $1,500.
Bids were received for the construc
tion of a sewer In the Second and
Twenty-first wards us follows;
P. F. O'Horo, $1.79 per llncul foot;
M. J. Gibbons, 1.65 per lineal foot; Ed

CHARGES AGAINST
CONTROLLER HOWELL
Resolution Passed by Select Council
Asking for Opinion as to Wheth
er He Could Be Impeached.
Councilman Charles E. Chittenden
sprung a surprise on select council last
night by Introducing tho following res
olution: Resolved, By the select comic II of the city of
Scianton, that the city solicitor be lequestcd to
lender u written opinion stating whether or not
the city controller would be liable to im
peachment and removal fiom omce in casa he
should, without the authorisation of the city
councils, make tiamfcrs of appropiiatlons on the
city books kept in his ollice or for wilfully
charRiiifj claims a(!aint the ilty to accounts not
set aside or appropriated for Mich purpo-e.
The members looked around at one
another in some surprise and Mr. Chit
tenden was asked to explain by Mr.
Coyne.
"I know that irregularities exist in
tiie conti oiler's office at present," said
he. "They may be small now, but
they are liable to grow into serious
scandals if not stopped at once. I
think that we should ascertain our
lights in tho premises so that we may
know how to act in the future."
"If the controller does what that res
olution infers he does," said Mr. Roche,
"it is nothing knew. It has been done
before."
The motion to adopt tho resolution
was put and carried by an unanimous
vote. When seen after the meeting
by a Tribune man 'Mr. Chittenden
would only say that he knew irregu
larities existed.
He wotiiii not mention any specific
instances, but asked the reporter if he
had heard anything about pay-rolls
for work on the streets 'being charged
to other accounts when the ward ap
propriations were exhausted.
"I only want to find out what coun
cils' rights are," he said.
THREE ARRESTS IN
THE TENDERLOIN
Keepers of House of Ill-Repute Taken
Into Custody Charged with Sell
ing Liquor Without License.
Mayor Moir's war on the tippling
houses is now being pursued through
other channels than those used so far,
and parties other than those known as
proprietors, in tho strictest sense of the
word, of speakeasies, are being arrested
and fined. The proprietors and pro
prietresses of houses of ill-repute,
where beer and other intoxicants are
freely sold, will now bo attended to,
and a stop put to this, as well as the
other modes of illegitimate liquor sell
ing. Three of the persons in charge of dis
orderly houses were arrested Wednes
day night and arraigned before Alder
man Myron Kasson, on warrants Issued
at the instance of Chief of Police Rob
ling. They were Charles Thiol, of 210
Center street; Katie Lewis, of 224 Cen
ter street, and Clara Welchel, of 215
Center street, propiletress of the
notorious "Drug Store."
Both of tho women were fined $15
and S10 costs, but tho hearing in tim
Thiel case was continued. The arrests
were made quietly, about 8 o'clock
Wednesday night, by Mounted Olllcer
Joseph Bloch, who served the warrants
and escorted his prisoners to Alderman
Kascon's office.
Two of Mayor Moll's agents testified
to having visited the houses nnd while
there drank beer. When evidence to
this effect was given against Title, ho
burst out with an angry exclamation
of, "But, by heavens, I did not charge
them anything for the liquor." Tho
hearing In this case was, however, con

GRIER IS NOW
ON THE STAND
Tells ot His Indlonation When Detec
tive Harris Tried to Force Him
to Take His Moncu.
HE REFUSED TO ACCEPT
Told Harris He Had a "Mind to
Smash Him in tho Faco" for Thus
Insulting Him An Effort Being
Mndo to Get in the Testimony of
Grier to the Effect That He Ac
cepted the Money from Harris for
the Purpose of Having Him Ar
rested for Atempting to Bribe.
Court Will Rule on the Question
This Morning.
At noon yesterday tho commonwealth
rested In tho case against Councilman
James Grier, of the Third ward,
charged with soliciting and accenting
bribes for his vote, and during the af
ternoon the case was opened to t in
jury for the defense and Grier was put
on the stand. An effort was made to
have him testify to certain statements
he made prior to going to the Hotel
Rudolph to nccept tho $10 from Harris,
but this was objected to by the com
monwealth. Tho object of this testimony was to
prove that Grier was actuated In taking
the money by a desire to have Harris
arrested for attempting to bribe coun
cllmen, nnd that with this end In view
he took the $40 and deposited it with
his attorney, M. A. McGinley, who has
had it ever since. Court will rule upon
the question this morning. If the tes
timony Is admitted a big prop will have
been knocked from under the common
wealth's side of the case.
In the case on trial, Grier is charged
with accepting a bribe of $40 and also
with soliciting bribes. If it can bo
shown to the satisfaction of the jury
that he accepted the $40 for the pui
pose above stated, It will have an Im
portant bearing on the case. The case
wherein ho is charged with accepting a
'bribe of $1,400 for himself and other
councilmon Is Independent of the one
on trial, and In this action he could not
be convicted of this offense.
CROSS-EXAMINATION .RESUMED.
The cross-examination of A. B. An
derson, one of the detectives, was re
sumed by Attorney George S. Horn
after court opened in the morning and
he was questioned at some length as to
the matters he testified to in his ex
amination in chief.
Detective E. A. Whitney was then
recalled and testified that when he got
the $1,400 from Fred E. Beers he read
off the numbers and the series of each
bill to Beers, who made a memoran
dum ot them. During the times when
Grier was in the room at the Rudolph
with Harris, and he was watching and
listening in the adjoining room with
Anderson, they kept their room daik.
If Harris and Grier went into No. 21
before they got into No. 25, Harris
would- make a lot of noise by lopening
and shutting drawers, etc., to drown
tho noise of their entrance into the
room next door.
Whitney was shown a plan of the
room and door between Nos. 24 and 25,
and Identified them as correct. He was
then questioned about the poker game
which he referred to in his cross-examination.
He said they met a man
named Eavers, a gambler and a great
friend of Councilman Coleman. The
game was suggested by Eavers, and
they went Into it because they felt sure
that Eavers must have something he
wanted to lead up to or he would not
have suggested the game to them,
knowing who they were and what they
wero there for. They wanted to glv?
Eavers a chance to show his hand, but
nothing transpired during the game to
show that Eavers had any ulterior
motive. Theie were seven persons in
tho game, and Eaveis went home
broke.
HARRIS RECALLED.
Detective Joel S. Harris was recalled
and corroborated Whitney about the
poker game. Both men said that tho
game was played Monday night Instead
of Sunday night, as testified to by
Whitney on his cross-examination.
Fred E. Beers was called and gave
the numbers of the bills In the batch
of $1,400 which passed Into the bands
of Grier through Harris. He got the
money on his own personal note from
tho First National bank. The note was
endorsed by E. B. Sturges and Colonel
II. M. Boles, and the money was ob
tained for the Municipal .league, and
ho was directed to use It in such man
ner as he deemed advisable.
.1. II. Rlttenhouse, a civil engineer,
testified lo making measurement of
rooms Nos. 24 and 25 of the Rudolph,
and of making tests of seeing and hear
ing. Ho found that he could see from
No. 25( into No, 24 through the holes In
the doors and that he could hear dis
tinctly what was said In No. 24. A, B.
Dunning gave similar testimony.
Tho prosecution then asked that the
jury be permitted to go to tho hotel
and examine the rooms and tho doors,
but this was objected to by the de
fense, on thu ground that It would
bo improper to have the jury do so
until it had heard the evidence for
the defense, Judge Edwards said he
would not rule upon the matter then,
but suggested that the motion bo re
newed later,
OPENING FOR DEFENSE.
When court resumed after the noon
recess Attorney John F. Scragg open
ed the case to the jury for the defense
He "toad the act of assembly under
which Grier wns Indicted, which)
Miowh that a conviction can be fol
lowed by un Imprisonment of utfu
years, that being tho maximum penuj
ty, Mr. Scragg jeferrcd to the great
importance of the case to tho defend
ant, as well u& to tho commonwealth.
Oiler, he said, has for years been tho
gieat commoner of the city, the man
Who stood up for the people ugalnst
corporation and other Inlluenco which
are against the Interests of the whole
people.
Mr. Scrugg then passed to a con
sideration of the Indictment and said
that Grlor Is on trial lor accepting
$10, and that Is all that can be con
sidered in this case. Even If the Jury
believed that Grier accepted tho $1,400
ho could not bo convicted under tho
indictment on which he Is being tried
for that is not the offense charged.

not. To me It looks like fight."
Tho Tribune was the first to notify
President Mitchell of the action of the
operators. The statement Issued from
the conference was road to him over
tho 'phone and he was asked to state
what the consequence would be. He
said he would prefer not to discuss
so Important a matter off-hand, and
that until he had given It enroful con
sideration would not want to be
quoted In tho matter at all.
"Could you not say whether or not
II. Is possible that tho matter can be
dealt with ouslde of a convention?"
In. was asked.
"I would not want to s-ay anything,
even as to possibilities," he replied.
The principle objection the miners
have to the powder clause being In
cluded In the basis of settlement, it
seems, is that they do not understand
how they are to get a full ten per
cent, increase out ot it. A promi
nent operator, to whom this difficulty
was mentioned said: "What differ
ence does it make to the miner how
he gets It. Suppose if" is paying $1')
a month rent for a house and tli3
company agrees to Jet him have the
house free, isn't that the same an a
$10 a month Increase in wages? There
Is no occasion for worrying about not
getting what is promised. Every
man will receive $1.11) in cash f-ir
every dollar ho formerly received.
That is what is guara,Teed him and
that is just what he v.'ill get."
Tho Gibbons Coal company yester
day began operating their drift full
handed, with the approval of the
United Mine Workers. It is condi
tioned that only such coal as is suffi
cient to fill the ontract with the school
district Is to be mined. The company
agrees to pay its men a straight ten
