DAY AND COMPANY
HAVEN'T REFUSED
It Is Believed by Everyone in tho
City Hall That They Will Take
the Bonds.
The stories which have been circu
lated recently, to the offect that R. ti.
Day & Co., of Boston, would probably
refuse to take tho big $273,000 issue of
newer bonds, are absolutely without
foundation.
Day & Co. have never intimated that
they would refuse to take the bonds.
They have, of course, been very careful
in securing all necessary data nnd have
raised a few objections which appear
to bo trivial, but they have never sug
Bosted that they would not take the
bonds, nor does anyone in city hall be
lieve for a moment that they will re
fuse. Their latest contention is that the
election at which tho issue of the bonds
was authorized was not properly con
ducted. They contend that the ballots
were not properly marked and tbat
they were not deposited in the proper
ballot boxes.
City Solicitor Vosburg has looked into
this matter and has been Informed bv
C. P. Wagner, formerly chief clerk in
the county commissioners' oflice, that
the ballots were the same as those used
in every other such election in tho his
tory of the city and that the oleetlon
was conducted in the same manner ns
every such election heretofore, lie has
so Informed the company.
Tho bonds aru already minted and
signed and have been for the past two
weeks. They are now lying in the safe
In City Clerk Lavelle's ofllce, and a
very precious package they make, be
ing just as "good as gold" to whoever
might have them In his possession.
It is expected that they will bo taken
by the company within the next few
days, at least that's what City Clerk
Lavelie and City Solicitor Vosburg be
lieve. It is understood that when another
bond Issue is authorized nil bidders will
be obliged to .secure all necessary data
and Information for themselves before
they put in a bid. This will save a
vast deal of trouble on the part of the
various city otlioials who. since the
offer of Day & Co. has been accepted,
have been obliged to spend much valu
able time In looking up various mat
ters. The controller has been obliged
to prepare two debt statements, some
detail in the first one uropared not
satisfying the lletsrs. Day & On.

WANT A SHARE
OF $200,000
SUIT OF THE DEAN HEIRS
AGAINST WINTON ESTATE.
Judge H. M. Edwards Begins the
Trial of an Important Phase of the
Long-Drawn-out Litigation Over
the Griffin Conl Tract Demurrer
Overruled in the Case of Davis
Against tho First Welsh Baptist
Church Non-Suit Stands in Pngo
Case Other Court Matters.
Judge Mdwnrds yesterday entered
upon tho trial of another phase ot the
long-drawn-out litigation over the
Griffin coal tract In the Second ward.
This time the suit Is between A. D.
Dean, trustee for tho heirs of Polly
Dean, wife of Isaac Dean, and for
Isaac Dean, plaintiff, and the execu
tors of W. W. Wlnton and Catherine
Wlnton, deconsed, defendants.
Tho action Is to secure an account
ing for $200,000 In coal royalties which
tho fifty-acre tract has earned during
the past twenty-eight years. The land
was purchased from the Griffin estate
in 1S71 by W. W. Wlnton. Tho plain
tiff alleges It was bought by Wlnton
for himself (Wlnton) and Thomas
Livy, Joseph Church and Isaac Dean,
each to have a one-fourth Interest.
The defense alleges that In October,
1S71, Wlnton made a lease with tho
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
company for all the coal and this has
been construed by the supremo court,
In another phase of tho lltgation, to
be a sale of all the coal.
The plaintiff proves thut a trust was
declared by W. W. Wlnton and wife,
May 1, 1S72, to tho effect that the
property was held by them for them
selves and Livy, Church and Dean.
This trust, however, bears a date
which is ten months subsequent to the
date of the purchase from Griffin and
six months subsequent to tho date on
which the coal was sold to the Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western com
pany. Thus, tlic defense maintains,
the trust, in the absence of anything
showing the contrary, affects only
what property Wlnton possessed at
tno time it was declared, or simply the
surface lands.
There is also a dispute as to what
part of tho surface the Dean people
are entitled to. In 1877, it appears,
Joseph Church was sold out at sheriff's
sale and his one-fourth interest in the
tract whatever that might he was
bought in by W. W. Wlnton. The
Church heirs tried to recover this re
cently on the contention that Wlnton.
having been trustee for Church, could
only make the purchase as trustee and
that tho Wintons only held the
Church interest ns trustees for the
Churches. The supremo court, how
ever, decided the contrary, ruling that
Wlnton bought the interest free from
all equities.
Tho Deans allege that they have a
half share in this same Church in
terest. They claim that four days
after the sheriff's sale and before the
deed was made, Isanc Dean and W.
W. Wlnton reached an agreement
whereby each was to share alike in the
profits of the Church one-fourth. This
agreement, it is alleged, was based on
the fact that Church was heavily in
debted to both Dean and Winton and
the Second National bank, of which
Dean and Wlnton were the chief own
ers, and that Dean refrained from
bidding with the understanding that
Winton was to buy the property for
the mutual benefit of both of them
and the bank. This is denied by thu
defense.
The ease will take at least a week
in trying, and, if the prayer of the
plaintiff for an accounting is allowed,
it may require several weeks to get
the affair straightened out. Court
will continue in session today to ex
pedite the trial.
S. B. Price and H. M. Hannah iep
tesent the plaintilf and I. H. Burns
anil 11. .1. Martin, the defense.
Other equity eaes wore disposed of
a ! follows: Patrick Lynns against
Thomas Lyons-, settled; Delaware,
Lnekawaifa and Western Uailtoad
company against Thomas King, con
tinued; Kllen MeAndrew against Oo.
f. Okell, continued for settlement;
Providence and Abinglon Turnpiki
companv against the city nf Sormiton,
continued. Tho cai-e of K. L. Fuller
and others against W. S. Uaney was
mniked for trial, but tho chances in
it will not be. reached.
Church Must Answer,
Thiougli Judgo Archhald, yosteniay,
court discharged the rule to take off'
the non-suit in the case of f I'.ig.
against tlm New York anil Fcrnwon
Coal company.
The plaintiff sued fo" tho death of
his miner son, Veinio Page, who was
killed at the eoinpany'is breaker in
lllakely, Oct. 21, 1S9S, by being caught
by a revolving shaft1 and whliled to
his ek'ath. A non-suit was sranttMl
on the ground of contributory negli
gence, and the failure of the plain' Iff
to show negligence by tho defendant.
A rule was nirtdo to show why 'lie
non-suit should not be stricken off,
Tho matter was heard ut argument
court and yesterday the decision was
handed down In the following;
The plaintiffs non at the time ot tlio ace Ideal
was out ol his plate, engaged in placing with
another boy, and his death was the immediate
outcome ot this tirciuiistancc,
Tlic fact that the cud of the shaft was not

How It All Happened
Application for a rehearing In tho
matter of the revocation of tho llouoi
license of John Llsk, of tho Eighth
ward, was made to court yesterday by
Attorney K. C. Newcomb, and a rule
for a rehearing was allowed, return
able Thursday morning.
Mr. Llsk explained that tho original
hearing took place while he was Inad
vertently absent from tho coutt room,
nnd as he has a good and just defense
to the allegation that he sold liquor on
Sunday he would like to havo court
hear it.
On the Sunday In question, Mr. Llsk
states in his application, he was In the
upper part of his hotel, and healing a
commotion In the court on which the
side entrance opens, ho hurried thither
and found a fight In progress. While
standing In tho doorway, watching tho
light, somebody brushed past him. His
interest being centered in tho lighting,
ho did not notice who tho party was
that entered and paid no heed to where
ho went. One of the lodgers, who works
out his room rent by cleaning up the
barroom, was In the latter place ut the
time, and possibly he might have
helped the aforementioned intruder to
some beer, on the sly, but of that Mr.
Lisk has no knowledge. Ho Is certain,
however, that if any beer was sold at
his place on that Sunday it was sold
by the lodger-Janitor to tho strange
man who sneaked in at the side en
trance. Attorney George S. Horn applied for
the transfer of the license of George
A. and Thomas P. Price, of the Eighth
ward, to Charles Dilmuth.
David X. Lewis, of Taylor, asked for
a license for the balance of the vear
for his hotel building, for which Will
lam Jenkins secured a license, which
he failed to take out.
Page Non-Suit to Stand,
la this case of ISben P. Davis, who
seeks to have equity court compel the
First Welsh Baptist church, of West
Scranton, to reinstate him in member
ship, court yesterday handed down an
opinion over-ruling the demurrer to
the plaintiff's bill, filed by the church
authorities, and gave the defense
twenty days in which to make answer.
The opinion follows:
Taking the bill a.5 it standi, wo think it
piesmts a case for the eourt and calls for an an
btter from the defendants. According to the rule
which obtninb in tlio general church oig.mimion
fiom which the plaintiff has been excluded: "If
the party who has been found guilty bhall fall ill
and act peaceably with the decision of the com
mittee until tho conference of the ni.?oi ialion,
he sh ill have tlio right to ask for the vppoint
merit of another ceiiunittee to consider the mat
ter in the said cono-rencc."
This the plaintiil atem tint he did, by writing
in apologetic letter to the parties agaimt whom
lie was chtiigfd with haling ucled offenshel),
and iiskiug their foigiieneis, anil it was there
fore hU tight to hmo anoth.'i- committiv.
The lerfusal of the conference to appoint it
was appaiently .en arbitrary lefusul in elisie
gaul of the established tul"s of the ihunh, aid
tho louit of tho chinch being eiostd to him, he
ls a light to resort to this couit lor redres.1.
When the answer tcnius in t different aspect
may be given In tho matter, but lor Hie pic-elit
the bill, in exit judgment, st.Uis a tase that cu
titles the phintiff to a full hiariug upon the
merits.
The demurrer i overruled, with leave to the

bered close to 700 persons.
Athletic hall Is In the Eleventh ward,
and accordingly ono of the most stal
wart Republicans In that part of tho
city acted as chairman, Select Council
man John Schneider. General DuBols
gave a brief address, brimful of witty
anecdotes and caustic comment on the
false Issues raised by Mr. Bryan in this
campaign. Referring to tho congres
sional tight, he said:
A PLAIN QUESTION.
"I desire to ask you a plain question:
What would be your opinion, and what
would probably be the opinion of every
fair-minded person in the United States
of a man who had entered any kind of
a'contest and was beaten, if he turned
atrainst his successful rival and at
tempted by every means In his power
to detract and prevent his success?
"Why, you know that even a de
feated prlzp lighter shakes hands with
his successful oponettt and frankly ac
knowledges his own defeat. The truth
is tho American voters have decided
time and again and always in tlio
most emphatic manner not to tolerate
any insurgent candidate who after
having been defeated at the prim
aries of his own political organization
sets himself up as an independent can
didatc and attempts to encompass the
defeat of his successful opponent in
the party fight.
"William Connell was emphatically
successful at the primaries. He is
your regular party nominee and the
heart of the loyal Republican party of
the Lackawanna distiict hearts in
sympathy with him and he will win a
splendid triumph to-morrow at the
polls. My friends, he richly deserves
it, for hn has been tried in tho .coun
cils of public life and has been found
sterling and sound on all of the great
questions of the day.
"Ho has loyally supported the presi
dent fiom the beginning of the gold
standard light down to tho Philippine
emergency. He has successfully with
stood the closest search and severest
trials of congressional life. He has al
ways, labored for the public good with
untiring Industry as oven" honest
luntrted eitizei of this community
will attest. He has always in all his
views and actions both in private and
In public life held the banner of self
respect high as hope's great throbbing
star above the darkness of the dead,
and with his fi lends, his country and
his own reputation he has kept a per
fect faith, and gentlemen, to-morrow
you will licet him and you will elect
him by such 'a magnificent majority
that no man wearing the badge of
Republicanism -vx III ever attempt again
another insurgent movement in this
great Lackawanna district against a
regular parly nominee until a. virgin,
bears :i child.
"In electing him you will gratify
President McKinlcy, whorp trusted
friend and counsellor William Connell
has always boon, in electing him you
will not only do this splendid thing
but you will help to elect all of the
other excellent candidates on your
local ticket, and I don't know how you
can belter serve your country and
your county than by doing just this
thing."
PHILIPPINE QUESTION.
A. J. Colborn, Jr., referred particu
larly to the Philippine question and
roused the audience to a high pitch
of excitement when he declined that
Old Glory was In those Islands to stay
nnd would "never, no, never, be
hauled down." Deputy Attorney Gen
eral FlellK pointed out that the real
issue in this campaign Is tho wuno Is
sue which was under consideration
four years ago, froo sliver and it at
tendant national dishonor.
He referred to tho fact that In IMG
tho Eleventh ward went for a Repub
lican presidential candidate for tho
llmt tlmo in its history and burled
Bryan under an avalanche. Ho ex
pressed the hopo that tho process
would he repeated this year In oven a
more thorough manner.
Another enthusiastic mooting was
the one conducted In Kolaski's hull,
t at tho corner of Elm street and Pitts-
ton avenue. Hero there was a largo
sprinkling of Polish voters in attend
ance and an address on tho vital Is
sues of tho campaign was made by
Editor Daugol of tho Stiaz.
Ills remarks wero received with
much applauso nnd the sentiments ho
gttvo utterance to appeared to moot
with 'tho approval ot his listeners.
Hon, S. S, Yreelund, of Now Jersey,
gave ono of his rousing addresses nnd
Mayor Molr presented the names of
tho members of the county ticket and
urged the election of them all. "Vote
tho straight Ropubllcun ticket," said
he. "Don't cut It. It contulns .the
names of only good men and true."
The third meeting was held in Work
Inginau's hall, on Alder street, only a
little over u block from Athletic, hull,
and yet It was attended by a good
sized crowd, which was not lucking la
applauso. Tho chairman was Henry
Mooie ami tho speakers were Hon,
John R. Farr, Attorney John M, Har
ris and Henry George,
