Judges have sometimes to decide some very peculiar questions but it must bo admitted Hint the question which Judge Kelly will have to decide as the result of the hearing in the case of J. B. Shifter against Building In upeetor Jackson Is unique. The ques tion Is this: Can ti bay window be larger than the room which It opens from? Some few weeks ago Mr. Shlffer, who lives at tho corner of Mulberry street and Franklin avenue, went to Building Inspector Jackson to obtain a permit for erecting an addition to his house. The building inspector examined the plans and seeing that the addition would extend on to the ten-foot res ervation, refused to Issue a permit. The city building ordinance prohibits the erection of any structure except a bay window on the ten-foot reserva tion. Mr. Shlffer contended that the addition he proposed to build was a bay window while Mr. Jackson contended It was not a bay window. The result was that Mr. Shlffer applied to court for a mandamus to compel Mr. Jackson to issue a permit. The testimony was heard yesterday afternoon. Attorney Balentine represented Mr. Shlffer while City Solicitor Vosbuig appeared for Building Inspector Jack son. The plaintiff had a quartette of architects on hand to prove that the contemplated addition was a really truly buy window. Architects Feeney mid Worden contended that It was a ljsy window and nothing else while Architects Davis and Blackwood said it was not a bay window. Tho defense was that tho addition was nearly four times the slue of the room from which It opened and that it would be as Impossible, therefore, to call it a bay window as to call the New York bay the Atlantic ocean and to speak of tho Atlantic ocean as New York bay. The witnesses examined for the de fense were Building Inspector Jackson, ex-Building Inspector John Nelson, Adam Schroeder and Ij. a. Osboru. of the architectural department of the In ternational Correspondence schools. These all testified that the proposed addition was not a bay window and that It could not be termed such ex cept by a wild stretch of the imagina tion. Judge Kelly took Hie papers In the ease and will render a decision later. AN UNAVOIDABLE ACCIDENT. That's What Jury Says Caused the Death of Benedict Dnmbrosio. An inquest in'Ai the death of Bene dict Dnmbrosio. who was killed last Wednesday while at work on the Souli Sijranton sewer, was conducted last night in the arbitration room at the court house by Coroner J. J. Roberts. .V number ol witnesses were exam ined, including Contractor A. If. Coons, and William Partridge, his foreman. They both testled that tho side of the sewer which caved In appeared to be very solid and that for that reason it was not shored up. They both de clared that they did not believe it to bo in an unsafe condition before the man was killed. Domlnlck Dambroslo, a brother of the dead man, testilled that lie worked at the samo place as Ills brother when the work of digging the trench hvas llrst begun and that the earth was very soft. In his opinion there was need for bracing. Other witnesses examined' were as follows: Henry Nichols, Charles Booth, Oicorgo Nehr, Charles Sehrleber and Patrick Hughs. Their testimony was principally iu tho nature of a des cription of tho accident Itself. The Jury was out for nearly an hour, and finally brought- In thu following ver dict: "Wo, the undersigned jurors, find that Benedict Dambroslo came to his death on Nov, 2 ns the result of an unavoidable accident.

They Don't Favor the Iden of Amend ing the Third Class City Law so as to Keep Scrnnton in That Class. Mr. Lansing Says That It Would Be Very Unwise Not to Get Out of n Class Where the City Has Been Hampered for Years Mr Chitten den Favors it Conditionally. The opinions of Mayor Molr, Select Councilman Charles K. Chittenden and ex-Select Councilman James A. Lans ing, regarding tho suggestion that the third-class city classification law be so changed as to permit Scranton remain ing In this class for another ten years, were gleaned yesterday by a Tribune man, and It must be admitted that none of theso gentlemen entirely favor the Idea. Mayor Molr said: "I am opposed to the'ldea entirely. T think that If we went down to Ilarrls butg with any such proposition that It would be playing, what the coiners of slang have so happily called, 'tlio baby act.' It would be tantamount to say ing that we wore afraid of leaving tho third class and taking a position with other and mare Important cities. "I am not so fearful of this second class city bugaboo us are many of the citizens of tills city. I think that mat ters will rig! t themselves and that It will be an easy matter to conform our selves to the new conditions when once we get started. 1 think that when .Scranton becomes a city of the second class she will rise in the estimation of the whole state, and that's just what we want her to do. "I am not in favor of passing anv preliminary local legislation until such time as tlio governor's official procla mation Is received. There Is no need for any hurry In this direction." MB. LANSINO'8 VIEWS. Kx-Select Councilman James A.Lans ing, president or the board of trade, said In answer to The Tribune man's query: "I think that the Idea of keeping Scranton In tho third class would be u step backward and we don't want to take backward steps. Wo want to go forward. The city of Scranton lias been hampered for years by reason of her being in the third class. She has been bumpered for years because the majority of titles in that class have a. population of less than 50,000. and be cause legislation favorable to third class cities having over that population has always been killed In the legisla ture. "The coat Scranton lias been wear ing for years has been too small for her. I'm not saying that the coat which she will wear when she goes into the second class will be a perfect fit. It may ho that it will be too large, but it's my opinion that wo can get alone; better as a second-class city than wo have been gottinsr along as a third class city. "We should, however, aim to got a perfect ilttinsr coat. We should en deavor to'bave legislation passed which would be suitable to the needs of Scranton just Hie same as the present second-class city law was designed to fit the needs of Scranton and Alle gheny. It might be a difficult matter to devise a special law which could be declared constitutional, but there's nothing like trying. AS TO PITTSBl'RO. "I have been thinking tliut.it might be possible to have Pittsburg put in the same class as Philadelphia. That would leave Scranton and Allegheny in the same class. These two cities have about the same population, and what would be suited to one would be suited to Hie other also. "I haven t j,lven the existing .second class city laws very much considera tion, but there are a few things I have noticed which I don't altogether ap prove of. One of these is the strlpphii: of a great deal of authority from the; executive department. I think the proper system is to centralize as much authority as possible in the mayor, so that if tilings go wrong, he can be held accountable. X don't believe In sub dividing responsibility up among a whole lot of officials. "I don't ngieu at all with certain of our citizens who believe that in bu conilng a second-class city we will be merely jumping from the frying uaii Into Hie lire. The second-class laws may not be perfect; they may need a deal of change and amendment, but they are more suited to Scranton a needs than Is the present utterly In adequate third-clas3 city law. It would be a serious mistake to continue as u third-class city." Select Councilman Charles K. Chit tenden is one of the members of the select council second class city com mittee who vefussd to act In conjunc tion with Mr, Roche In drawing up ordinances to govern Hie various city departments under a second class city. When nsked If ho favored Hie plan of keeping Scranton hi the third class, ho said: TO A CERTAIN EXTENT. "I favor tho idea to a certain extent. I can say with Hamlet that for tlio present it 'Is hotter to bear tlio ills wo have than fly to others that we know not of,' 1 don't favor the Idea Mackerel We offer fat No. i, Rlack trel at 10c; value ic, Norway Bloaters, Mackerel, large, finest fish imported.

Coursen Best Goods for LeaHt Money, of rushing precipitately Into the sec ond class, as does Mr. Roche. "I believe that we had better hold our horses for a time until we knew where we are at. There's no hurry. The legislature doesn't meet till January and there's sure to lie some new second class city act passed this season. It would be far bettor to wall mid find out what the provh slons of this act are going to be before wo go In under the old act. "I haven't given the second class city laws very much examination, but there's one thing I notice about them that should be changed. That la tho putting of more power In the hands of councils than they have at present. They've got too much power as it Is. Look at the departments which are managed under the supervision of councils and you'll tlud that they ore the worst managed of any department In the city. "Take the fire department, for exam ple. Whole volumes could be written about Its mismanagement and It's all because It's directly under the control of councils, Stay In tho third class by all means, rather than rush blindly Into the second class." MLLE DE LEON LEFT THE CITY HURRIEDLY Agent Wilson, of the Men's Union Had a Warrant for Arrest for Giving' an Indecent Dance. A goori-stsiod furore was created about the clt;', yesterday afternoon by the rtiino" lit it at the night perform ance at Hie Gaiety there would be "doings." "Mile, do Leon, the dancer, is golmr to be arrested by the Men's union peo ple," was what a cigarette-smoking youth, wearing a red necktie, whis pered to I1I3 friend with the foot ball hair, when they met during Hie after noon, and tl.1'3 itiipiesslon was general throughout Hie city. And verily ther was cause. Agent Robert Wilson, of the union, had sworn out a warrant for Mile.

Flfl de Leon was gone. The bird had down, and It Is said that she Is now In New York city, wheie she will this afternoon appear at Hie Dewey theatre. Mile, de Leon made her first appear ance on the Gaiety stage at the Thanksgiving matinee of Hie Tuxedo club. She then gave a dance that had some "ginger" in it, and Manager Long ordered thai it be cut out. Mr. Long was not at the theatre at nluht, and when Mile, de Leon learned tills she cut loose, so to speak, and gave an ex hibition unique in the history of danc ing in this city. When Manager Long was apprised of what had occurred, he hastened to the theatre and had an interview with Mile, de Leon, which re sembled tho recent Bull's Head exalo slon, as far as dynamic force is con cerned. Yesterday morulug Agent Robert Wilson, of the Men's union, called on Manager Long and drew his attention to the fact that an act which he de nounced as Indecent had taken nlace at Hie theatre. Mr. Long explained that he felt rather torrid around Hie collar himself about It, and suggested that Mr. Wilson swear out a warrant and arrest the danseuse If she attempted to give it again. Agent Wilson swore out a warrant and attended the matinee, only to find the aetres.V name off the programme. Some of his men wore In the big crowd which thronced the house last night.

He Left the City Last Night for New York and Will Monday Enter Upon His Duties as General Manager of the New York Ship Building Com pany of Philadelphia He Was in Charge at the Dickson Works for Five Years and Proved His Ability as a Directing Genius. lleCottrcy May, who for the lust five yearn hns acted as general Superin tendent for tho Dickson Manufactur ing .company, yesterday sent in his resignation to President (!. II. Holm dor, of the company, and last night left for New York. city. He wilt there transact some business for the Dick son concern, and on Monday will be gin ills duties as general manager for Hie New York Ship Building com pany, of Philadelphia. HIh resignation was due to Hie very generous offer made for his services by the Philadelphia ship builders. The terms of Hie Inducements offered wwi so much larger than the present re muneration received by Mr, May, that lie was urged by Ills friends to nccept It. Tlie offer was made hint tluee. months ago, and on Ills acquainting President Zehnder with It, the latter promptly informed him that Iu his opinion. Hie post would be so much to Ids (Mr. May's) advantage that lie ought not to hesitate to accept 'it. Mr. May is finely qualified for the responsible position vhicli he Is now to hold. The company is one of the largest ship buliding concerns In the country, and Hie man who has charge of the works must necessarily be a man who knows about everything iu any way connected with Hie business. Mr. May was born in Scotland. While still a young man, le came lo this country and was closely connected with several of the large ship bulldinij and manufacturing establishments. Kor ten years he was In charge of the ship building works at Philadelphia. From there lie went to Niagara Palls and live years ago came to nil's city, and as general manager for Hie Dick son works has given abundant evl 'dences of his executive ability. He was lust night seen by a Tribune man and de'-lured that it is with unfeigned regret that he leaves Scranton. "My relations with the Dickson com pany could not be more friendly," ho declared, "and I look back to my five years' connection with it with unal loyed pleasure. Anything 1 can ever accomplish which will aid them, I will b only to delighted to do. and 1 leave their employ and this city with sin cere regret. "t don't like to leave Scranton itself. T like the city and I like Its climate. Since I have been here, 1 haven't had a day's Illness, and Scranton certainly seemed to agree with me." Mr. May lias no family or relation1? Iu Scranton. It is not likely that any successor to him will be appointed by the Dickson company, for some time at least. The duties of superintendent, It Is generally understood, are to be divided among a number of the Dick sou authorities, and for a time will lie attended to by several persons. Mr. May's salary at the Dickson works was $10,001) a year. TO START NIGHT SCHOOL.' Advantages Offered Members of the Catholic Young Women's Club.
