MAYOR MOIR WILL
NOT SIGN THE BILL
Sent a Communication to Councils
Last Night with Roforence tt
tho Asphalt Ropaix Bill.
Mayor Molr has sought legal advice
as to whether he chould sign the bill
for $1,3S0, the seventh quarterly pay
ment to the TJarber Asphalt company
under their $175,000 contract, and he
has decided that under no considera
tion whatever will he approve of the
bill.
This final decision was announced
last night In a communication sent to
eouncIK After citing tho terms of the
contract und referring to the recent
revelations of bilbery In Alderman
Puller's court, which swoin testimony
he savd Is uncontradicted, the mayor
continues:
"As I tinclci stand tho law, no peison
or corporation who by offering bribes
or rewards for the votes of councllmen
or for the approval of the executive of
the city does the same in vlolaton of
the public morals and the laws of this
commonwealth should have the as
sistance of the law to reap the bene
fits of their own unlawful acts. Fraud,
bilbery and collusion will vitiate any
transaction, and therefore if fraud In
obtaining this agreement or contract
be shown, either expressed or moiled,
the parties cannot enforce the agree
ment which they tbeinselvs have vio
lated the law to obtain. As the nntter
stone's, T believe it to be my dutv as
chief executive of this city to with
hold my approval of this bill."
In speaking about the matter to a
Tribune man yesteiday, the mayor
said:
"I was forced to ariive at this con
elusion after hearing the earnest re
quests made by many of our be-t citi
zens. Many of the very men who two
yea is ago were r'olng everything In
their power to get me to sign the ordi
nance awnidlng this contract are now
asking me not to sign this bill. Thov
do Ibis because they believe now, as T
have believed all along and as I said
In council, that this contract was born
In sin and conceived in iniquity.
"The burden of proof rests now en
tirely with the aspbalt company. Its
officials have not denied any of the
statements made in Aldeiman Fuller's
ofllce. They will find themelves tho
defendants In a pietty good-sized law
suit one of there days."
When the communication was read
in select council lust night It was re
ferred to the pavement conimi'tce, de
spite the protests of Mr. Chlttend"u,
who believed that councils had noth
ing to do witli the matter, it b"lng
to bis mind, merely a question to b3
settled between the nniyor and the as
phalt company.

LUKAN CASE
WASHEARD
SOLD AT RETAIL UNDER BOT
TLER'S LICENSE.
His Attorney Claims That Ho Should
Bo Sentenced as Directed in tho
Act of 1801, but This Idea Is Op
posed by the Attornoy for tho Mu
nicipal League, Who Contends
That Lukan Ought to Be Sentenced
Undor the Act of 1887 Other
Court Houso News.
At the last term of criminal court,
John Luknn, the Canousc, avenue bot
tler, was convicted of selling at retail.
When ho was called up for sentence,
hs attorney, Joseph O'Hrlen, contended
that ho could not be given the penalty
prescribed by the Act of 1SS7, the mini
mum of which Is $500 line and tlitee
months In tho county Jail, because ho
was not guilty of selling without a
license. The sentence should be Im
posed, Mr. O'Hrlcn held, under the Act
of 1S01, which prescribes that a bottler
who exceeds the authorityof his license
shall pay a lino not exceeding $100 and
bo Imprisoned for not mote thnn sixty
days, either or both at the discretion of
the court. The matter came up In ar
gument court yesterday.
Fred E. Doers, of counsel for the
Municipal league, which is prosecuting
tho case, held that Lukan should bo
sentenced under the 1SS7 act, because It
vns under that act the Indictment was
drawn and under that act he was con
victed. Futthermorc, he pointed out
that, at the time of Lukan's arrest,
Lukan bad no license whatever. 1Io
had purchased the bottling establish
ment from a man named Kos-s, but had
neglected to have the license trans
ferred, and It wns not until six weeks
after the arrest that the transfer was
accomplished. Court held the motion
under advisement. Other cases were
disposed of as follows:

In 1SS9, had been living In Plymouth
with one Dr. Vincenzo Sarlo In October,
1S98, and for a year thereafter, and that
she had a child by him. This was con

OPERATORltfHAVE
WON THEIR FIGHT
Carrying Companies Have Agreed to
Pay Them for Their Coal on tho
Sixty-llvo Por Cent. Basis.
Local membeis of the Anthracite Op
erators' association are home from the
New York meeting, and with their re
turn conies the information that the
programme forecast In The Tribune
wns carried out to tho letter.
The new contracts offered by the
transportation companies were pre
sented by the committee nppolnted lo
secure better terms for the Independ
ents, and after a lengthy discussion It
was decided to accept tho new terms.
This leaves each operator free to
enter Into a contract with any transpor
tation company he chooses to sell hlj
coal to, and, of course, menns also that
tho piojecls for fighting the transcor
tatlon companies with a new road, or
nny of the other means considered, are
abandoned.
The transportation companles.through
their committee which conferred with
the Independents' committee, agreed
that thoie would be no discrimination
shown for or against any operator. TIie.
contiaets will bo unifoimly diawn and
no operator will be given nny advant
age over the other.
The sixty-live per cent, rate for
which the Independents have contended
for years and which they vlgoiously de
manded, when the deal of the big com
panies to settle the stilke advanced the
cost of mining, is to obtain throughout
the whole region. The independents are
also to liavc better treatment in the
matter of allotment and car seivlce.
The victory of thu Independents is a
matter of paiticul.ir gratification to
this region, as tlje light was planned
and conducted bete.
Hon. William Connell Is piesidcnt of
the association, and both he and T. H.
Watklns were prominent, not to s-ay
the most active spirits on the commit
tee which had the matter of re-ariange-ment
of contracts in hand. Tho part
E. L. Fuller played In tho transaction
was told at length in Monday's Issue.
Ills activities were centered upon keep
ing tho Independent, fot tilled and, If
possible, place thorn In a position to
change their lequest into a demand.
The loyalty of the independent oper
ators, in geneial, in denying themselves
the benefits of the new contract offered
by the big tiansportation companies,
until such time as the sale of the Penn
sylvania Coal company released them
from their moial obligation to support
the new toad, is one of the most com
mendable things In the history of' the
coal wot Id.

CONNELL AND
THEJSENATE
WHAT THE PHILADELPHIA
PRESS SAYS OF IT.
His Contingent Candidacy for United
States Senator Has Aroused Keen
Interest at Washington - Mr. Con
noil's Attitude Is Bolievod to Re
flect tho Opinion of Colonel Quay's
Best Friends Reasons That Are
Urged Why He Is Available in
Certain Contingencies.
Tho following dispatch from Wash
ington, P. C, appeared In yester
day's Philadelphia Press:
"Ileprcsentatlvc Council's contingent
candidacy for United States senator
from Pennsylvania, as announced In
the Ptvss, of today, has aroused tin
keenest Interest among Ponnsylva
nlaim In Washington. When seen by
the Presn correspondent this evening,
Mi Connell corroborated tho state
ment Hint he would bo u candidate In
case Colonel Quay did not receive 11
majority vote of the legislator? upon
tb.c first vote tast In Joint session. Ha
frankly declared, however, thnU ho
was friendly to Colonel Quay's can
didacy, and did not wnnt his own posi
tion misunderstood.
"Mr. Council's attitude Is believed
to rollout the opinion of Colonel Quay's
best friends, and that Is that If not
elected on the first ballot, Colonel
Quay has no chnnce ot 'winning the
fenntorshlp. The latter, It Is believed,
also Is convinced of this, and has mnrta
up his mind to withdraw If he fal's
to secure an election on the first bal
lot. As already stateel In theso dis
patches, there Is good reason to be
lieve thnt Colonel Quay. In the event
of his own defeat, will endeavor to
glvo his strength to II. W. Oliver, of
Plltjburg. In the opinion of most of
the Pennsylvanlans here who ore In
terested In the contest, It will be im
possible for Quay lo deliver the goods
to Oliver.
"That tho contest will be very close
has been admitted by the most loyal
irlends of Colonel Quay, and the prob
ability of the ex-senator falling, as he
did two years ago, has led to much
quiet work being done In the Interest
of other candidates. The friends of
Mr. Connell have been active In tho
northeastern part of the state and
have secured promises from influential
powers In other localities of support
when the Scranton congressman "en
ters tho field ns an active, aggresslvo
candidate. It Is urged in his behalf
that ho has not been a radical machine
man. but is ready to lend his aid to
the reorganization of the party In tho
state upon lines of justice to all good,
honest Republicans. He has opsnly
espoused the cause of Colonel Quay,
but does not Indorse all that Is done
In the name of the latter by those who
operate the Quay machine."

Schimpff, the Jeweler,
That's the name. You've heard it a good many times
most every time in fact, when jewelry is the topic of conver
sation, for the one implies the other.
Schimpff, the Jeweler,
Has much to show you in the Gift li e more thati you'll see
in most other stores. Not only more, but something "dif
ferent" novelties that appeal to you, because of their
novelty.
Schimpff, the Jeweler,
H everything going in the jewelry line. Think ol what
you want; it's there. Prices,1 too, are less than you think,
when you consider that no matter what you buy, quality is
apparent
