SAYS RESOLUTION
WAS COWARDLY
Controller Howell Replies to Mr.
Chittenden Asks Him to Come
Out Like a Man.
City Controller Esdras Howell is
exceedingly angry at what he con
siders tho Insinuations contained in
the resolution introduced In select
council or. Thursday night by Coun
cilman C. E. Chittenden, calling upon
the city solicitor to furnish councils
with an opinion as to whether or not
the controller could be impeached nnd
removed from office for making trans
fers from one appropriation to an
other and for charging up claims to
appropriations made for different pur
poses. He gave tho following state
ment out for publication:
"I had thought best to ignore Mr.
Chittenden and his veiled attacks as
heretofore, for he has persistently re
flected on tho administration of af
fairs in my office. If, as he contends,
there has been wilful charging of
claims ugainst the city to accounts
not set aside or appropriated for such
purposes, why does he not come out
like" a man and show me where, and
not. by Insinuation hold mo up to sus
picion. "I want it understood that the af
fahs of my office arc conducted hon
estly and faithfully. The books are
open to the inspection of the public
at any lime. I am not infallible and
therefore am liable to err, but, un
derstand mo not 'wilfully,' as Implied
by the resolution offered by Mr. Chit
tenden, evidently in malice.
"I regard his attack as cowardly. I
have nothing to conceal in my office.
My accounts, as I have saidl before,
are open to all for inspection. I say
to Mr. Chittenden, as I would say to
anyone else: If you know of any
wrong or any apparanet wrong in the
administration of my affairs, out with
It like a man."
Mr. Chittenden was seen by a Trib
une4 man yesterday afternoon, but
would say nothing whatever regarding
the matter. He intimated, however,
that he would have a statement of his
side of the case to make In a few
days.

BIG MEETING
IN NORTH END
i
REPUBLICANS OUT IN LARGE
NUMBERS.
A Parade Participated in by All the
Lending Republican Organizations
Followed by a Rousing Meeting in
the Auditorium Whore Addresses
Were Made by T. J. Reynolds, John
M. Harris, Lincoln L. Eyre and A.
J. Colborn, Jr. Over One Thousand
Five Hundred Present.
North Scranton was the &ucnc latt
night at one of the must enthusiastic!
and successful Republican demonstra
tions ever witnessed In this city.
There was a vast outpouring of peo
ple;' a splendidly conducted pnrade,
and a mass meeting In the Auditorium
nttendod by over l.iiOO persons, and
addressed by several speakers, Includ
ing Lincoln L. Eyre, of Philadelphia,
chairman of the stale executive com
mittee, who made a telling speech,
In the absence of General T. J. Stew
art, who was unavoidably prevented
from being present.
The parade was a 11UI2 late In start
ing, but when the front line of Roose
velt's Hough Riders appeared on
horseback, North Alain avenue, from
Bull's Head to 'Weston place, was
thronged with spectators. At Provi
dence square there was gathered a
crowd of over 2,000. The mounted
Rough Riders were in the lead and

HE IS A MATCHLESS LEADER.
A. J. Colborn, Jr., Clerk of tho United States Circuit Court, and
recognized as one of tho cleverest member of the Lackawanna bar,
gave the following brief statement of his reasons for favoring the
re-election of President McKinley yesterday to a Tribune man :
" I am for the re-election of President William McKinley, because
he has shown that he is a perfect master of the economic problems
which confront us, He has guided us out of the slough of financial
disaster, when our credit was impaired and commerce was stagnant,
up to the high and safe ground of national prosperity and financial
stability."
'" Through all the delicate and trying events of the Spanish war,
he stood firm, courageous and contarvativo, and under his matchless
leadership we emerged triumphant, our national honor untarnished,
our credit unassailed, and the equal devotion of every section of our
country to the welfare of the republic cemented as it never had been
before.
" For the past thirty-five years there has not stood at the head
of the government a truer patriot, a wiser or more courageous leader,
or a better and nobler example of the highest type of American man
hood, than President William McKinley. The industrial history of
the Unitsd States for the past four years is the tribute to the wis
dom of his judgment and his ability as a statesman.
" The same vigorous manhood and clear and patriotic vision ani
mates him now as heretofore, and this gives confidence and trust to
the people for the future of our republic, and they will once again say
that his hand shall guide us, and his genius direct tho affairs of this
nation for another four years."
following them came tho Lawrence
band.
Behind the band was the Union Lea
gue, 1-5 strong, all the members at
tired in now and natty khaki uniforms
and marching with precision and
grace, and commanded by Captain
Lewis B. Carter. Following the
Union League was the West Side Cen
tral Republican club, the members of
which were also attired in Rough
Rider suits and carried blue lanterns.
IX THE CARRIAGES.
Closely following was a carriage,
containing among other notables, the
celebrated John Davis, of Bellevue,
resplendent in a silk hat and bearing
In the dim light a resemblance to
President McKinley. Tho Bellevue
Republican club came next and was
followed by the T. J. Reynolds Fif
teenth Ward Republican club, headed
by four standard bearers attired in
Zouave uniforms. Then came the
Nay Aug drum corps.
The Citizens' band and the North
End Republican club, No. 1, under tho
auspices of which tho demonstration
was given, brought up the rear of the
procession, which went over the line
of march given in. yesterday's Tribune
In n maze of red light and Roman can
dles. When the meeting in the Auditorium
was called to order at 9 o'clock by
Chairman A. A. Vosburg every seat
In the immense hall was taken and a
pushing, jostling throng of several
hundred men were In tho rear. .Seated
on the stage were the T. J. Reynolds
Glee club and the following Republi
can candidates: George M. Watson,
J. II. Fellows, J. A. Scranton, W. R.
Lewis, Jonn Copeland, T. P. Daniels,
Emll Bonn, W. K. Beck, T. J. Rey
nolds, John J. Scheuer, Jr., and Ed
ward James, Jr,
The first speaker of the evening was
T. J. Reynolds, candidate for represen
tative In the First district, who made
a brief address. Ho reviewed tho great
prosperity of the McKinley adminis
tration, telling of tho wonderful de
velopment of American Industries in
the last four years. "No silver tongued
orator can change these facts," said
he. "No political theorist can change
this,"
.Speaking of McKinley he said:
"President McKinley has proved him
self to be worthy of tho past and he
Is prophetic of the future. He has the
audacity of genius and I consider him
to be tho greatest combination of heart
and conscience to be found in this
country today,"
MR. HARRIS' TALK.
Mr. Reynolds was loudly cheered and
was followed by John M. Harris, who
made a most excellent address, rid
dling many of the Bryanlstlo argu
ments with facts and figures which
cannot bo contradicted. He quoted
Samuel Gompers, president f the
Anierlean Federation of Labor, who lu
1803 said that he thanked God for tho
McKinley administration, because of
tho tremendous Industrial revolution
that came us the result of it. Regard
ing the necessity of supporting the
county'tlcket, ho said;
"You must remember that you can
not trine with tho Republican ticket.
If you want to muko your vote effect
ive you must vote the straight ticket.
You can't compromise. If you vote for
McKinley you must vote for a con
gressman who is in smypathy with his
administration and who will hold up
hit) arm. Tho men whose names appear
on the Republican local ticket are com
petent, clean and honest and need no
praise ut my hands."
LIucolu L. Eyro was the next speak
er, He plunged into his discussion of
the Issues at once and made a deep lm-
prcsslon on his hearers with his ltn
pnssloncd delivery of clearheaded and
logical argument. He referred to the
-big coal strike almost at the beirlnnlnsr
of his remarks. Said he, In part:
"The people In Philadelphia havo
boon WAtchlng the movements of tho
sti'lkcis these paHt few weeks with the
deepest sympathy. These past few
days 11 most earnest effort has been
made to end tho strugRlo and bring
the companies ro grant the demands
embodied In the resolutions recently
adopted by tho miners In convention,
And who's been behind this movement?
None others thnn the Republican lead
ers In Philadelphia. They're the men
who did It.
PARTY OP PROTEST.
The Democratic party ever since tho
civil war has been the party of protest,
of objection nnd of criticism. Hut It's
euuy for one man to stand by when an
other Is doing the work. Tho Democ
racy has dropped tho cry of free trade;
If has droppod the cry of free silver be
cause the people would have no more
of them and now it talks of trusts and
imperialism.
"So far as ttusts are. concerned there
aro many vurletles. There are the cot
ton bale trust and the lee trust and a
few others that the Demooratlo party
don't like to hear about. All tho trusts
have stockholders who are Democrats
and stockholders who are Republicans.
"To my mind the question of trusts
Isn't a question of politics. It's a ques
tion of temperament and character; a
question that must be decided by tho
Individual. But Mr. Bryan has other
issuos, militarism and Imperialism.
Just think of the wonderful standing
army we have in this country of 70,
000,000 Inhabitants; 23,000 which can
increased to 100,000 If necessary.
"Just think of that menace to our
iv - f - f - f - - 4 - - f - - 't - - f - f - f4 -
-.
free Institutions. Why, it isn't much
larger than the combined police forces
of a few of our large cities. He says
we're going to be an empire if we
leave tho Republican party In power.
We "are an empire already; we're the
grandest empire on tho face of the
globe and every citizen is an emperor,
"Mr. Bryan, there Is only one para
mount issue with you and that is your
desire of getting into the White House.
Mr. Bryan says we are doing wrong
in holding the Phlipplne Islands. He
says we've got to vote for him for the
sake of an alien race thousands of
miles away, even though we may have
adversity instead of prosperity at
home."
"After our glorious war with Spain
and after the Paris convention, when
the treaty ceding the Philippine isl
ands to us was before the 'United
States senate, Mr. Bryan urged the
Democratic senators to assist In Its
ratification that he might later make
an issue of Imperialism. He now comes
out and opposes President McKinley
for carrying out a treaty which he
himself forced the Democratic sena
tors to ratify.
SENT OUT SOLDIERS.
"Under that treaty we sent our sol
diers to the Philippines, where they
have acquitted themselves honorably
In protecting the flag of this country.
The paramount Issue In this campaign
Is this: Shall the American people,
because Mr. Bryan has changed his
mind, haul down the Stars and Stripes
In the Philippines and leave the bodies
of tho American soldiers who have
been killed by Filipino bullets to v
there unavenged? I say no; the
American peoplo will never do that."
Mr. Eyre succeeded In stirring up the
crowd to great enthusiasm, but it re
mained for A. J. Colborn, Jr., to arouse
tho audience to Its highest pitch.
Among the many eloquent things he
said were the following:
"Not one patriotic citizen should
vote for a man who tells you that hu
man lives In tho Philippine Islands
would be safer under the proclamation
of tho tricky Agulnaldo than under the
waving folds of Old Glory.
Tho members of tho committee which
received tho speakers and candidates
weie: T. J. awynno, Chatlos Richards,
D. J. Thomas, Francis Jones. T. J, Da
vis and John Richards. During tho
evening the T. J. Reynolds Glee club
rendered several spirited selections,
under the efficient leadership of John
Evans.

QUINN CASE
WAS RECALLED
VERDICT OF NOT GUILTY TAKEN
IN COURT.
Defendants Were Indicted for Mur
der and Also for Aggravated As
sault nnd Battery It Was in the
Latter Case That the Verdict Was
Taken The Flnnnagans, Father
and Son, Tried on a Charge of
Keeping a Speakeasy Action
Taken in Other Cases.
The Qulnn murder, which occurred
lu Curbondalo during the summer of
1S0!, was rccatled by a case called for
trial yestetday. Thomas Gallagher
was last winter convicted of the kill
ing ot Thomas Qulnn, sr and was
sentenced to two and one-half years
In tho penitentiary. Hts brothers,
Joseph and Thomas Gallagher, his
mother, Annie Gallagher, and his
grandmother, Bridget Dempsoy, were
also Indicted for tho killing, but were
exonerated. They were also Indicted
for aggravated assault and battery
at the instance of James P. Qulnn,
and It. was this case which was called
yesterday. A verdict ot not guilty
was taken, no evidence being offered.
Fred Rncht, one of the young men
who some time ago began a crusade
against unlicensed liquor sellers at
Carbondale and succeeded In getting
himself indicted at the Instance of
Thomas H. Norton and Alexander Mc
Donald for blackmail, was returned
not guilty In both cases nnd the
county was directed to pay the costs.
The jury having In charge the case
against Stephen and Thomas Flanni
gan, father and son, was out when
court adjourned. This was another
of the cases instituted by the Men's
union, who charged that the defend
ants conducted a speakeasy at 1717
Luzerne street. Agents Wilson Huf
fllng and Keene testified to having
purchased beer and ale at the "defend
ants' place on July 27 and 81 Inst.
They also described the -place as
fitted with all the appliances for car
rying on the saloon business.
CHARGE DENIED.
The defendants denied the charge
absolutely, saying that they had no
connection with the business carried
on there, other than that the father
owned the building. It appeared
that In 1S95 a license was granted to
Stephen Flannlgan, who stated that
since that time he had rented the
place to various tenants, the last one,
who occupied it at the time In ques
tion, being Charles R. Harris.
The defendants also sought to show
that on the dates when tho place was
visited by the witnesses for the com
monwealth they wore not present, the
father having been in Olyphant at
tending to a sewer contract which he
had In charge, and the son having
been out driving during all of the af
ternoon and evening of the days in
question. Attorneys F. M. Lynch and
R. L. Levy were counsel for the de
fendants nnd Colonel Hitchcock and
Frank E. Beers represented the
prosecution.
John Ferguson, of Dunmore, ijfHS
charged with tho crime of malicious
mischief by Bridget Kane, who was
formerly the defendant's wife, but
who was divorced from him some four
years 'ago. It seems that since the
separation, the defendant has (con
tinually harassed tho prosecutrix and
threatened to do her bodily injury.
The defendant pleaded guilty. Ths
court sentenced him to pay ?1 fine and
costs.
NICOLAS ON TRIAL.
Samuel Nicholas wa3 put on trial
for carrying concealed weapons. It
apepars that on April 28 tho defend
ant was found with a deadly weapon
upon his person. The employes of the
Mt. 'Pleasant colliery were out on
strike, and on tho day in question a
number of the strikers gathered In
the locality of the mine. It Is alleged
