The Wllkes-llorip News yesterday
hail the following editorial on Hie
death of Mi 1!. Burstinder!
"Only a few people Imtl had Intima
tion of tho very set Ions lllnrss of Muti
neer M. If. BurBiinder and the nows
of IiIb death yesterday niornltitr was
1 n shuck to his ninny friends through
out the pity. Ills Illness litis been for
I only 11 few days and up to Sunday
nlRht was tiot considered as particular
ly dangerous, ultlioitRh there was con
siderable disturbance of temperature.
Yesterdny four nhyslclans were called
In consultation, but In spite of their
tilllod efforts, the end canto with ter
rible swiftness. The ailment, It Is un
derstood, was pneumonia, which
reached the typhoid stuRe.
"Mr. DurRUtuIcr hns been for years
well known throughout this section
of the state as a theatrical manager.
Ho hnd charge of old Music Hull for
years before It wus done away with to
make room for the Htorllng hotel. He
was one of the movers In tho erection
of both tlie Clrnnd unci the Ncsbltt
theaters and was a stockholder nnd
lessee of both of them. As a business
man, he was keen and able and ho
had brought the amusement business
In this city to a steadily rising grade
of excellence and he hnd been a con
spicuous factor In the great develop
ment of dramatic amusements In
Wllkes-Hnrro and Scrnnton. Mr. l)ur
Rimdcr will be much missed In his
field of business effort, for hardly
another man hereabout know the busi
ness as he did.
"Tho loss to his family, however, Is
tho saddest part of all. Married only
for a few years, he leaves a widow
and two charming children. The fam
ily life has been almost ideal. He
seemed u man In the very vigor of
manhood and health and his years
were those of the very flower of man
hood's estate. Ills sudden and un
timely death has caused his friends a
keen sorrow, and much sympathy Is
expressed for bis family."
The funeral of Mr. Ihirgundcr will
take place at o'clock this afternoon
from his late residence on Northamp

will be In the Jewish cemetery at

DOINGS AMONG THE
KNIGHTS OF MALTA
Electric City and Anthracite Com
manderies Are Preparing to Cele
brate Their Anniversaries.
From present Indications, Novem
ber will prove a banner month among
tho Knights of Malta. The fifth and
fourth anniversaries of two of the
largest and most Important common
derles in tho city, Electric City, No.
177, and Anthracite, No. 211, will be
held on Nov. ir and Nov. '20, and ar
rangements are being made to make
eacli of these occasions a notable one.
Klcctric City Commandery, of West
Scrnnton, Is the oldest organization
of the Knights of Malta in tho county
and under its present sir knight eoni
mandor, Cuss Morgan, will give a
smoker and reception Nov. 15, at which
will be present knights from all over
the county. '
Anthracite commandery, the most
centrally located, and one o the most
aggressive and enterprislnlg of all of
the lodges, is making more extensive
preparat'ons for the celebration of
their anniversary on Nov. 20, at Mal
ta hall. Invitations have been sent
out to all the other of the twelve
county commanderies, and between
one bundled and fifty and two hun
dred guests nre expected to bo pres
ent at the banquet, which is to be
held, af a short programme has been
rendered.
Anthracite commandeiy has made
wonderful strides since its organiza
tion and Is regarded as one of the
banner organizations of knights in
this part of Pennsylvania.
Organized four years ago, with W.
S. Hartlett as sir knight commander,
it had eighty-live charter members,
and now, under Sir Knight Comman
der Ives, four hundred und sixteen
men's names are on the roll.

429 LACKAWANNA AVE,
American citizens, settled down 'to
routine business yesterday, Just as It
they had not on the day before gone
through an election which, with Its
preliminaries, had kept the country
nil agog for tho best part or tho pre
ceding summer and fall months, They
rend Tho Tribune's statement of the
result, felt a spasm of pride that tlt2
city should have such nn enterprising
paper nnd wdnt to work,
Of course there wns nothing else
talked of all day long, but no one lost
any time by tho discussions. Jt waJ
all over, tho result was known nnd
the excitement of tho race was as
much a thing of the past as If It had
been a steeplechase and the horses
wero being led back to the paddock.
Thoro wero those who wanted to
tell how It alt happened and there
were nlso those who would let them
do it, but these latter were like tho
votes for Con 'Smith, not worth tho
counting. As a general rule, when
these explanatlonlr.ers sought an au
dience they met with a cold rebuff.
Every one who wns any one knew
Just as welt as tho next how the thing
happened In every instnnco, and he
didn't caro to hoar some one else ex
plain how it happened with an explan
ation thnt didn't explain. Anyhow, as
said before, the election was over and
he was back to business.
SUCCESSFUL ONES.
The successful candidates were to
bo seen about town in the afternoon
and at almost every stop they were
halted by outstretched hands convey
ing congratulations.
Congressman Connell wns fairly
overwhelmed with congratulations.
Friends who had been led Into worry
by reason of his being in a three
corned fight wero the most exhuberant
in their congratulations.
Mr. Conry's aggressive fight and ex
cellent showing evoked many warm
words of praise for this promising
young man. For Mr. Spencer, who
"also ran" for congress, there was
nothing but general commiseration
that such an otherwise good fellow
would allow his vlndlctlveness to lead
him Into such political Indiscretions.
His thousand votes out of a total of
30,000 was such a ridiculously poor
showing that their recipient was sub
jected to pretty much the same color
of satirical jibes as his fellow-independent,
Cornelius Smith. Prospective
postmasters, revenue collectors and
such like among tho Sponrerlan satel
lites were a doleful looking lot as
they were viewed here and there gath
ered In small groups telling ench other
how but for this, that or the other
thing, the other, that or this thing
would have obtained.
NO CONTEST TALK.
For the Urst time in years a first
day after election passed off without
any talk of contests. Messrs. "Warlike
and Bonn, Koch and Beck, Phllbln
and Timlin and Scheuer and Flaherty,
who were elected or defeated as the
case may have been, by what tho in
complete returns indicated were small
margin, did a lot of figuring from the
open returns in the prothonotary's of
fice, but not a whisper or any indica
tion whatsoever of contest was heard
or observed.
A feature of the day was the circu
lation o' astoj-yjo the-.fffect.that Recorder-elect
Emil Bonn had taken
poison and was dying. It was twisted
and turned into an attempted suicide
yarn, and, despite its ridiculousness,
gained some small credence. The
facts of the case, as tola elsewhere In
The Tribune, became generally known
by noon time and the story was caused
to subside.
Comparatively little betting was
done in Scranton this campaign out
side of the customary friendly wagers
of cigars, hats, gloves, suppers and
the like. Mot a single cash bet of any
considerable proportion was reported.
The women folks, it would appear
from all reports, did their share of the
friendly wagering. Boxes of candy
and roses were the "stuff" they put
up rather than having to shut up.
SHE HAD A BET.
One very anxious miss called up The
Tribune oftlee before dnyllght to ask
If Mr. Spencer was elected. Thinking
she was not serious, the man at the
'phono began to say jokes, but his
jocosity was very coldly received. She
wanted to know if The Tribune would
be kind enough to tell her it Mr. Spen
cer was elected j she had bet a box of
candy on him and was awfully anxious
to win it. Tho man at the 'phone gal
lantly begged to regret that Mr. Spen
cer had not been elected by the returns'
then at hand, and that the chances
of missing returns making him n win
ner were, it grieved hhn exceedingly
to say, very slight. She said "Pshaw!
Much obliged" nnd hung up the 'phone.
And the man at the 'phono recalled
an article he once wrote on "Why Wo
men Should Vote."
If a county controller was elected
yesterday that oftlco will bo lllled, very
likely, by P. W. Costello, ono of tho
present county auditors. With figures
from all except eight districts he has
1S93 votes, as against 404 for F, 1,
Brown; 207 for John Wheeler, of Cnr
bondale, and 237 for John B. Nullin.
With the exception of Mr. Brown all
the candidates conducted n secret cam
paign, each wishing to avoid stirring
up activity on the part of Mr. Brown.
Mr. Costello went at tho matter with
n determination to win and Uw
fihnncos nro that ho has succeeded. In
most of the big Democratic districts
he had men at working distributing
his stickers nnd Instructing voters
how to use them.
MAY BE OVERCOME.
Thoro is no telling, though, but that
his big lead may bo overcome, as it Is
known that many of the election
boards neglected to record tho vote for
controller on tho open returns, Tho
odlclal count, whlcli will commence to
day, will determine this.
Tho efforts of these candidates may
bo all in vain, as it is very question
able If tho election will stand even If
tho census returns show that the coun
ty has the 150,000 population necessary
to entitle It to a controller.

SAUL AND DYER
AGAIN ON TOP
MAYOR'S INJUNCTION IS SIS
SOLVED BY THE COURT.
Councils Can Do as It Pleases In the
Matter of Settling Claims nnd the
Mayor's Power of Interference Is
Exhausted When He Exercises His
Right of Veto History of the Pro
ceedings Up to Date Grand Jury
Will Mnke a Return Today Other
Court Matters.
Court yesterdny dissolved the In
junction secured by Mayor Molr to re
strain City Controller Howell from
countersigning the warrants for the
much-disputed pay of ex-Patrolmen
Saul and Dyer for the time select
council was withholding ItH concur
rence in tho action ot the mayor In
removing them.
In substance the decision ot tho
court was that the mayor had no
Htarulng.
August 17, 1809, the mayor removed
Saul and Dyer "for cause," but It was
not until the first Thursday of Novem
ber following that select council could
be ptevalled upon to concur In the ac
tion In the interim the dismissed
patrolmen offered themselves con
stantly for duty, but were not allowed
to act.
In October, 1S99, Saul presented n
claim for $1S2 and In a case stated
judgment uas awarded him for the
full omount. Dyer, in n letter to the
major, so he alleges, mado formal de
mand for $182, but tills the mayor de
nies. February, 21, 1900, .Mayor Moir. act
ing independent of councils and
against the judgment of the city solici
tor, took an appeal to the superior
court to prove his contention that
when a patrolman Is dismissed his sal
Dry ceases, no matter how long after-wa-ds
it may bo before the concur
rence of select council Is forthcoming.
Last September select council passed
a resolution directing the city clerk to
draw an order for U82 and interest
in favor of Dyer and Saul, and com
mon council concurred in it. As wns
xpected, the mayor vetoed tho meas
ure, but, as was nlso expected, thT5
councils passed It with practical un
animity over the mayor's veto.
Thereupon the mayor sought and
secured a preliminary injunction de
claring the resolution void and re
straining the controller from taking
anv action under its provisions.
Yesterday, when the rule to make
ihe injunction permanent came to be
I'eard, tho court decided in favor of
the contention of the ex-patrolmen's
attorneys that the council had every
i Iglit to make a compromise on these
claims, just as they would on any
other claim, and that the matter of
the legality of the claims did not con
trol. As long ns they had a moral
right to this money there was no ques
tion, the court held, but that the coun
cils could adopt compromise measures.
The mayor's power of interference
was exhausted when he exercised his
right of vfito.
Welles & Torrey and Wlllard, War
ren & Knapp represented Saul and
Dyer. The mayor's attorney was John
O. McAskle.
Immediately after the dissolution of
the Injunction the ex-patrolmen made
an effort to secure from the controller
the full amount of their claims. Con
troller Howell, however, refused to
pay them, inasmuch as the money ap
propriated for their salary has already
been paid to Patrolmen Davies and
Hockenberry, who were appointed to
fill tho vacancies caused by the two
removals.
When the controller paid Patrolmen
Davies and Hockenberry he required
them to furnish indemnifying bonds
for the full amount pnid them, so
that in case court should decide that
Dyer and Saul were entitled to their
palary, and that councils should decide
to allow them it, he would be released
from any personal responsible r.
He has already notified Ho- enberry
and Davies that they must refund tha
two months salary paid them, and if
they fall to pay it back he will hold
their bondsmen, John H, Follows nnd
AVade M. Finn, for the full nmount.
When the money is paid back into tho
city treasury he will countersign war
rants for the payment of Dyer and
Saul, but not before.
