NO RISKS IN SCRANTON
Order Issued by the Tieeldent of a
Large Tiro Insuranco Company.
The Reasons Ho Gives.
One of thlst elty'ri most widely
known Insurance ngenU received a
letter yesterday from the president of
one of the largest Philadelphia, lire
inftirunccj companies, of which he Is
the local agent, directing him to talto
no fire risks whatever in this city
until further notice.
In this letter the president explains
that the company has decided that the
recent destructive lire was not checked
because of the Inefficiency of the lire
department, and points out that tho
company cannot Insure "practically
unprotected property." In conclusion,
the letter says:
"You will thercfote on teeelpt of
this letter discontinue accepting risks:
decline to renew policies that may be In
force and refuse to make endorsements
on those that may be In force. We trust
your citizens will In the near future
see the Importance of putlltiK the fire
department on an effective basis and
when this Is done, we will be uble to
renew our former relations with vottr
oflice."
Select Councilman Chittenden, the
father of the reorganization ordinance
which was defeated at last Thursday
night's meeting of common council,
was shown the letter and stated that
unless common council reconsldeted
Its action and passed tho ordinance
putting the department on a paid ba
fls at once, the citizens of this cllv
might wake up some morning nnd find
themselves up against Hi pretty totmh
proposition, namely, tho until o with
drawal of a largo number of tho In
surance companies or a great big In
crease In rates.
Colonel F. U Hitchcock, of tho local
board of underwriters, when shown
the letter, said that while to his
knowledge, no other Insurance com
pany had sent out Eiich a radical or
der legnrdlng this clly, that never
theless they might be expected to do
so In the neor future If councils did
not take prompt action looking toward
a reorganization of tin fire depart
ment. BOARD OF CHARITIES MET.
Report of Mrs. Duggan Showed
Work Done in Month.
A regular meeting of the Board of
Associated Charities was held last
night, and an amount of routine bust-'
ness ttansacted. In the absence of

The repoit of Sirs. AV. n. Duggan

TO INCREASE
MEMBERSHIP
NEW Y. M. C. A. MOVEMENT IN
AUGURATED LAST NIGHT.
A Committee of Fifty Who Will
Seek to Secuie Tlvc Hundred New
Members Before May 1, Enjoyed
a Banquet Last Night In the Tem
porary Headquarters of the Asso
ciationAddresses Were Mnda by
H. C. Shafer, L. F. Bower, J. G.
Shepherd nnd Secretary Geo. Mnhy.
A movement to secure M)0 new mem
berH for the local Youtjg Men's Chris
tian association before May 1, on
which dale tho corner stone of the
magnificent new building will be laid,
was Inaugurated last night In tho
temporary quarters of the association
In the Guernsey building, on North
Washington avenue, with a banquet
served to the members ot a committee
which Is to have the work In chiuge.
This committee consists of fifty
of the active members of the associa
tion, who have been selected by an
executive committee consisting of A.
K Wat man, W. Fulton, J. G. Shep
herd, W. T. Hnckett and L. F. Dower.
It Is subdivided Into committees of ten
anil each single Individual memlier Is
expected to secure at lonst ton new
members before May 1.
Last night's banquet was largely
attended, nearly every member of the
committee being present. Tho guests
were seated at three long tables und
weie served with a bounteous repast
by Caterer William Hanley. Jr., com
mencing at 8 o'clock. At tho conclu
sion of the banquet proper, a number
ot bief addresses touching upon Young
Men's Christian nssoclaton work were
made.
PUUSIDUNT SHAFFIt.
President H. C. Hhafer was the first
speaker and explained ati some length
the ptnposu of the movement. The
list of new members, be said, would
be put In the coiner stone of tho new
building, to bo lead centuries from
now by some other generation.
An nn Inducement to Join now, Presi
dent Shafer said that membets would
receive tickets goods until August, 1902.
so that practically seven months use
of privileges were to be had In the
n3v building for the old rate of $3.
while after Jan. 1, 1002. the. sum of
$10 would be charged.
Mr. Shafer closed with a stirring ap
peal for united and earnest action to
push the corner stone membership can
vass until the five bunded members
were secured, and introduced .Mr. L. F.
Ilower, the treasurer of the association,
whose itddtess on "Why Young Men
Should Serve the Y. M. C. A." was
well received.
Mr. Dower said that many men
wreck their lives because they work
only for self. The work of the Young
Men's Christian association offered one
of the best Holds for practical unsel
fish work In the speaker's knowledge.
The more time and thought and money
men give to others the btoader and
better themselves become.
AN ATTHAC'TIVi: FIF.LD.
"After all, the truest egoism Is
found in the purest altruism," said he.
"We who concentrate our minds upon
our own success falls of success. The
Young Men's Chtlstlan association Is
an attractive Held for the work of
young men, because of Its catholicity.
It lupresentH all denominations and
welcomes men of no denomination, and
yet Its center Is Chi 1st, nnd from hi in
tadlates Its force and helpfulness. Its
membership Is composed of diverse
and heterogeneous elements and yet lis
common purpose to bless young men
in body and soul welds that hetero
geneous mass Into a mighty force for
ilghteousness."
J. G. Shepherd nnsweied the ques
tion, "What Am I Hete For?" by re
plying inspiration, enthusiasm, march
ing orders. He told of his gie.it sur
prise at thi wonderful spread of tho
Young Men's Christian association In
iifty years. "We must push our
standard higher," said he. "Instead of
five bundled members we should reach
out for 1,000. I am not going to rest
content with ten members; I am going
to work for twenty."
General Secretary Many explained
briefly the methods to be used In the
canvass, and the various chairmen
then met with their sub-commlttees
in group conferences. The general
Impiesslon seemed to prevail as the
meeting broke up that the live nun
died new members would soon be a
fact. v
Dn.rg.iln day. The rummage sale,
which tho ladles of the Penn Ave
nue Dnptlst church havo been con
ducting for the past few days at IV,
Washington! avenue, will be continued
until C o'clock this evening. Today
will be bargain day.

SHE CAUSED TROUBLE.
MRS. REAP WOULD NOT GO BE
FORE ALDERMAN.
Eventunlly She Did but Not Until
She Had Given Agent Wil
son Much Annoyance.
Agents for tho Municipal League ex
perienced no end of difficulty yester
day In serving wnnants upon violators
of the liquor laws. The officers were
determined, however, not to show any
leniency towards the widows who run
"speakeasies" and were not daunted
by such little tricks ns urn shown In
the following:
"I see your greasy face," cried Mrs.
Wlnlficd Heap, of 717 Madison avenue,
Dunmore, when she saw Agent Robert
Wilson and his men coming to ar
rest her. She locked and barred tho
doors and windows, and rushed to
her room, partly undressed herself
and snuggled up under the bed cover
ings. The otllcers buist In the door nnd
entered the building, but no amount ot
motal suasion would induce her to ac
company them. Wilson looked at the.
woman, saw that she was determined
In her course, and consulted with his
colleagues. Tlie result of the confer
ence was the summoning of a nearby
physician, who, despite her protests,
examined her and decided that all
claims to being sick wen; fradulont.
Accordingly n cab was pressed into
service, and, after some time was
spent in getttlng the woman Into
suitable clothing for the street. Mrs.
Wlnlficd Reap found hersIf whirling
towards the city at a lively gait.
Defote reaching Alderman Millar's
oftice more obstacles were encountered,
for Mis. Reap flatly and positively re
fused to icllnqulsh her seat In the
vehicle.
"We'll see." said Wilson pointedly,
as he gave the signal to bis assistants,
and the speakeasy proprietress was
relzed bodily and can led up two
flights of st." Irs to the nlderman's
courl.
Angered at belmt foiled at every
turn. Mrs. Reap started In to abuse
the witnesses, the officers' and even tin,
alderman, and for the time her tongu
fairly made the building quake.
While, tho turmoil was nt Its height,
Alderman Millar managed to weigh
the evidence, and decided that Mrs.
Reap had caused enough trouble to
Justify placing her ball at $1,000. in
default of which she wns committed
to the county Jail.
Mrs. Mary May, of 629 Wilbur street,
wns also, arraigned before Alderman
Millar on the charge of keeping a.
tippling house. Robert Wilson is tin
prosecutor. She wns committed to the
county Jail in default of a $100 fine
and cots. Mrs. May has a family of
live children, who weie given In
charge of Mrs. Duggan, agent for the
board of eharltle.
SHE DRANK CARBOLIC ACID.
In Fit of Insanity Mrs. Fred Gardner
Swallowed Fiery Fluid.
Coroner J. 3. Roberts yesterday per
formed an autopsy on the lemalns ot
Mrs. Fred Gardner, of 643 Willow
street, who was found dead Monday
i afternoon by one of her daughters.
The coroner declnied, after tno post
mortem, that deceased came to her
death by taking a strong dose of car
bolic ucld, us the condition of her
stomach gave ample proof of this.
It Is supposed that Mrs. Gardner
drank tho acid while In a tit of Insan
ity, as of late she has btcn acting In
n very peculiar manner, and for soma
weeks her strange actions have
aroused! comment. She is survived by
ft husband nnd seven children.
The funeral will be held from tho
family residence tomorrow afternoon.
Interment will bo mads in the Dun
more cemetery.
ELLMAN MUST STAY IN JAIL.
Judge Smith Allows the Appeal but
Refuses tho Supersedeas.
Judge P. p. Smith, of the Superior
court . tc-rday allowed the appeal of
tho dt'leiidunt In the caso of tho com
monwealth against Jacob Fllman, but
declined to allow tho appeal to act as
a supersedeas.
It was directed that the appeal bo
heard at the March session, to bo
held tn IlarrUburg. The reason for
refusing the petition that the appeal
be allowed to havo the effect of a su
persedeas, the Judge would not state,
saying he preferred to reserve tho dis
cussion of this matter lor the court,
when tho caso Is presented.
This means that Hitman will hnvo
to remain in Jail pending the heating
on the appeal.
GOOD ROLLING
IN THE LEAGUE
LOCAL BOWLERS ARE DOING
FINE WORK.
The Backus Team Has the Gieatost
Number of rinj to Its Credit ot
All the Clubs in the Northeastern
Pennsylvania Bowling League.

ule prepnrcd showing the standings ot
clubs and Individuals up to last night's
match on the Dackus nlleys, which Is
not Included.
Previous to Inst night's bowling the
Dackus, i:iks, Commercials and lllcyclo
club teams had each rolled live games
of three matches each, while the West
Knd Wheelmen, of Wllkes-Darre. lag
behind with only four matches. Ot
the teams which bowled their full
schedule, the Dackus men lead with
ll.OIS pins, nnd u. good team nvcragi
of 150. The Klkri had 11.777, and nn
average of 157. The Commercials arc
hot after the leaders with 11,517, and n
154 average. Tho Hicycle club team
baa 11.0IS nlns to Its credit, and an
average of 147, and the West Knders
In twelve matches rolled hut 8,703, a
mediocre average of 143.
Hopkins, the young captain of the
Dackus team, Is high man with the ex
cellent average of 176, for fifteen
games. He has bowled steadily and
consistently, rarely rolling a spectacu
lar one but always playing 11 suro
spare game.
CLOSE TO HOPKINS.
Charles Fowler, the Commercials'
captain, Is close after Hopkins, with
an average of 171 for the same number
of games. Worden leads the Dlcyclc
club rollers, with an averago of 156,
which Is Just one point ahead of Dr.
Warden, his captain. IMinund Dart IV
161 leads the Klks, and Welgand leads
the "West Knders with the same score.
The bowling throughout the tourna
ment has been far superior to the woik
In last year's league gumes. Higher
averages have been maintained and
far better Individual gumes rolled.
Wright, of the West Knd Wheelmen,
has the high score of 1900's tourna
ment, 212. This has been passed sev
eral times this season already. Philip
Roll, the man with a slngulaily np
propos name for a bowler. Is tho
league's high man. In tho game which
his team, the Elks, rolled Hgalnst the
Scranton Bicycle club, on the latter's
alleys. Boll bowled splendidly and
scored 228. Bernard Coons, of the
Dackus team, made u desperate effort
to overtake the Elk. when the Backus
and Elk teams mot, and rolled 221 on
the enemies' own alleys.
Charles Fowler bowled 222 against
the Backus team, on his home alleys,
and this was the top notch double cen
tury match until Roll bowled his 22S.
In the Mine game that Fowler miide
his 222. Walter Haslam. of the Com
mercials, scored 203, and among tho
other double centuries are Hopkins'
