ley the Only Protestor Dispute
Over Clark Coal Company's Con
tract Warned Against Deficiencies
The school board of the city of Scran
ton Inst night decided by 11 unanimous
viva voce vote to go behind Its coal
i-ontniets and grant the contractors
who are supplying roal to the various
M'hools of the t-lty an Increase of ten
per cent, over their contract price, be
cause t of the ton per cent, increase
grantell to their employes by the vari
ous coal companies us a result of the
recent strike.
The matter was brought up by two
reports presented by the supply com
mittee loeommending two opposite
things. One of these reports read as
follows:

Some of I he members favored re
iitlvertlsing for llids for thet-e two dis
tricts, notably Mr. Barker, while oth
iis bollevcil the contiact should bu
.i warded to the ne::t highest bidder.
I'halrmau Kv.ui", of the supply com
mittee, charged cerlaln members ol
i'io committee with trying to break
i'iiwii the contiact with the I'laik Tun
nel company so that the other bidders
could get a. show.
Or. U'Mnllo protested vigorously
against tin gr.intliiB of the ten per

i.ulng unbUHinesHlike and c-ltildlsh. Ills
.viirils went fin naught, however.
A motion w.ui made to amend thai
portion of the report referring to the
Clark Tunnel company by making it
read that it tlui company be not will
ing to continue their contract after
the ten per cent Increase was grantc-d,
that their cnntiaci be. uiiuuUotl and a
lien' contract awarded to the nul
highest bidder.
This amendment was adopted, and
then tho entire report, as amended,
was carried.
A brief report from the llnmu'o com
mittee showed that one deficiency has
already been cteated and that there
Is a dunger of others being created,

LOVE AT PIRST SIGHT.
Wedded at the Windsor, After
Two Weeks' Courtship.
Love at llrst sight is not confined to
novels, but is found in overy-day life.
Two weeks ago Howard Gould, the ad
vance agent for the Bennett-Moulton
company, which played all week in the
Grand, met Mrs. Kdith Garney In
Scran ton and Saturday the couple were
united in marriage by Rev. W. J. Hill,
pastor or the Deri- Memorial church, in
the parlors of the Windsor hotel. The
ceremony was witnessed by Mr. and
Mrs. Lee, Mr. and Mrs. Allen. Mr. Mil
ler, Miss Carrie Turner and Danny
Simons of the company.
Mr. Gould is tall and dashing, and his
bride is a pretty blonde. Mrs. Garney
is the widow of James Garney, a well
known resident of Scranton, who died
about three years ago. Gould was mar
ried before, but exhibited divorce
papers which he secured from his first
wife on grounds of desertion.
Tito cetemony raised quite it stir in
the Windsor hotel and everybody, from
the proprietor to the cook, seemed
anxious to remove every obstacle likely
to stand in tho path to hnpplness ot
tho couple. The carelessness of a
laundryman, however, delayed the
ceremony a half-hour and greatly dis

RETURN OF THE
FUGITIVE IVORY
City Detective John Moir Yesterday
Brought the Assailant of Harvey
Irving Back from Dayton, O.
City Detective John Molt- yesterday
afternoon returned from Dayton. O.,
with William Ivory, colored, who is
wanetd here on the charge of attempt
ing to kill Harvey Irving, at the lat
ter's home In Raymond court, on the
night of September -I. Ivory will bo
given a hearing this morning before
Alderman Millar. He admits his guilt,
but claims that he shot only In self
defense. Immediately after the shooting Ivory
letL the city, and the local authorities
forwarded descriptions of him to the
police buieaus all over the country.
Thursday a telegram was received from
the Dayton chief of police, stating that
Ivory was ai rested, und Friday Detec
tive Moir packed his grip and went in
quest of the fugitive.
& WALLACE,
Ivory was In Dayton during the last
two or three weeks, and wus recog
nized on the street by one of the
Ohlonn sleuths, from the description
sent on from here.
Ivory's attack on Irving was of a
very blood-thirsty nature, according to
the story told by the assaulted man.
Tho latter alleges that he was sitting
on the steps in his house, late at night,
dozing off Into the Land of Nod, w;hen
he was aroused from his slumbers by
a mighty clout on the head, and on
starting to his feet saw that it was
Ivory, armed with the wooden back of
a chair, who had struck him. As he
struggled to his feet, Ivory drew a re
volver and Hi eel, striking him In the
back.
Tho injuries he eeolved were so seri
ous in nature that he was taken to the
Litckawanna hospital, and there, after
a few weeks' care, recoveted from his
wounds. Ivory admits s'-iklng Irving
with tho chair and doing the shooting,
but says it was all In self-defense.
