CRUSADE IS CALLED OFF Gowitu Commissioners Give Ud tlic Idea ot Proscciitlnu Aldermen find Justices ot the Peace. WORK OF AGENTS NOT SATISFACTORY Rather Than Make a, Few Mogis tiatcs Suffer for tho Many Who Have Offended, the Conimissloncra Htivo Decided to Let the Prosecu tion Go by tho Board Witnesses Ready to Testify Before tho Grand July Against Two Aldermen Wore Sent Home Other Court Matters. .The pioseeutlon of lite nldermon and justices of the peucu charged vlth Il legally collecting fees Is to bo squilchcd. The county commissioners, who instituted It, arp not satisfied with thu manner In which it Is being con ducted and yesterday determined to call it off. The Inability of the commissioners' detective to secure Incriminating evi dence against more tlintt a few of the offenders Is the primary reason of the determination to ulloiv the crusade to go by the board. Tlu commissioners went Into tho matter with the expectation that It would be u thoiottgh and Impartial af fair. It seems they aro not satlsiled thai It isas such and rather than be mixed up In something which Is ap parently unfair they have decided to draw out and take some other tack. The commissioners have been com plaining all along that the crusade was lu danger of being turned into a "liz zie" becauso of the fuel that only a certain few magistrates were b.-lng brought in, and tlu agents were urged to exert themselves. The urging did not have the desired effect, and after a consultation yesterday afternoon tho decision to call off tho prosecution was arrived at. Witnesses were on hand yesterday to appear before the giand Jury In two cases against Scranton aldermen, but heroic the cases were reached the cotn mlsslonerh' decision was arrived at and the witnesses were sent home. The Shifter Case Again. Court granted a rule yesterday upon Jui'ob Slilffe'.' to tliow cause why he should nut lie ni judged guilty of con tempt of court.

Perjury Cases Not Reached. Tho perjury cases, which niu being prosecuted by tho Municipal league, wore not reached yesterday by tho grand Jury, as was expected they would be. Whether or not they wilt go over to the next tPrm of court has not been decided as yet. The- grand Jury will probably con. tlnue in ses.-ilou until next Wednesday. District Attorney Lewis will today ask Judge lMw ards f( Usuu an order ex tending the session. TOOR BOARD MEETING. Only Applications for Relief Were Considered. Yesterday afternoon's regular meet ing of the poor board was entirely f-onsumeil In listening to appeals for aid lrom a number of persons.

Robinson Sons' Celobrated Bock Bier on tapSatutday and all next week MUST PAY THE LARGER FEE COURT'S DECISION IS AGAINST LIQUOR MEN'S CONTENTION. Licenses This Year Will Cost 31,100 Unless tho Supreme Court Can Be Brought to Reverso tho Local Judges No Opinion Accompanied tho Decision, but Ono Will Bo Forthcoming Shortly Will Have the Effect of Reducing the Num ber of Licensed Drinking Places. in tho case of M. P. Flynu osalntt County Treasurer Scranton, brought to test tho aueatlon of whether liquor dealers In Scranton would pay $1,100 or o.'0 for their licenses this year, the court yesterday decided that the 1st gov fco will have to bu paid. No opinion accompanied tin. decis ion, but it wus announced by Judge Archbald that un opinion settlnu forth tho lino of reasoning followed It) i cach ing this decision would bo forthcom ing In a short time. The liquor dealers will take the cam to the Supiemo court, and tlnso of them who propose to take out their licenses, will pay the additional ir.10 j under protebt. I As it Is highly Improbable that n. decision can be secured from tho Su- premo court before next Saturday, j which is the last clay for taking out licenses, and os It Is also quite Im probable that the decision of tho lower court will bo icversed, It can bo expected that a large number of the licenses granted a week ago will not be taken out. Those whoso places aro In tho suburbs, and ninny of tho central city saloon-keepers eluclaro that thoy cannot afford to pay the $1,100 license und must ictire ft out business. There wcio 2S0 licenses gi anted for tho city, an Increase of neatly forty more than were granted last year. Those new applications were made, supposedly, with tho expectation that the license? feu would not be Increased, as most of them ramu from tho suburbs-. Last year there were eighteen licenses granted tor tho South rldo wind. This year the number of forty seven, an inctcaso there nlone of twenty-nine. Some hopo of the license IVe being kept at $3:0 is bated on the bill in troduced by Senator Vaughan, which provides that In a city of the third class passing Into the second class the fee shall remain at $.150 for the three years following the transition. A stienuous effort will be made to get the bill to the governor before April 1. TUNKHANNOCK. i-ie-ilil to the! Stranlem Tribune. Tunkhannock, March 1.". Mis.
