The answer proved highly unsatis
fneiory. as the men claim that It guar
antees merely an Increase of -'! per
cent, without conceding the reduction
In hours. It will be impossible, more
over, to take any action on such u
communication containing variations
on the original demands without first
calling a meeting- of all the alllllated
lodges. The remainder of the session
consisted of routine business. Another
entertainment is lo be given for thf
purpose of raising funds, and various
committees have been appointed to
take charge of Its details.
At Dunmoro the men continued at
work yesterday. The situation there
is a peculiar one. Superintendent
Slade has Informed the men that tho
shops are controlled by the Krie IJall
road company and this places the em
ployes under the heading of "railroad
machinists." None of tho conditions
Imposed by President O'Connell upon
railroad machinists to bo seruplously
observed before a strike can be de
clared have been attended to, and tills
leaves the situation tied up. The coun
cil will soon lake hold of tho matter.
The local situation remains about
the same. .Men are brought lit on nl

MAGISTRATE TtflLLAR REBUKED
DETECTIVES.
Does Not Anpiove of the Manner lit
Which They Secured Evidetice of
the Alleged Fact That Certain Sa
loon Keepeis Sell Liquor to
Minors Director of Public Safety
Hitchcock Does Not Take Kindly
to What tho Magistrate Had to
S.iy Yesterday.
Police Magistrate W. S. Millar, after
discharging tour saloon keepers ar
tesled yesterday at tho Instance of Dl
leetor of Public. Safety R 1,. Hitch
cock, nit the charge of selling Intovl
cants to minors, didn't hesliuto to ex
ptoss his disapproval of tlio manner
III which the evldo'tee against them
was secured by tho throe pi Hate detec
tives who worked under the dfioetlon
ol Director Hitchcock.
Tint four saloonkeepers arrest 'd
More Igiittt Oram and Jacob I Inn Is,
nf S .nth Washington nv.'iiue; Joint
Kelly, of ('iit)ouse avenue, and airs.
Hildget Walsh, of North Washington
iiverite. The prosecution, represented
by Special Ollleer K'eene. offered its evi
dence the testimony of a small boy
whom Keene said lie gave money to
purchase, beer in these several saloons.
This was enough for Magistrate Mil
lar, who when bo heard that this w.is
tile kind of evidence to be oft'ere.l In
each of tho four -ates, discharged tho
prisoners, after admonishing them to
live tip to the law in the luttirc. in
speaking about the mutter to n Tri
bune tnnn yesterday afternoon, lie said:
OPPOSED TO AIKTHOD.
"I am unalterably opposed, and so I
told Mr. Keeno this morning, to tills
way of (securing evidence against those
Kaloonkeep"rs. Thi-t idea of giving ..
little boy of tender years money and
sending' him into a saloon to tempt
these people to disolx.i lb" law is con
trary to my sens- of justice and I do
not propose to countenance it in my
cotttt.
"My record in the past shows (hat I
believe in upholding tin; law nnd pun
ishing Its violators, but t don't believe
in hounding those saloonkeepers in this
way. Selling to minors Is of course a
crime, but there are other ways of se
curing evidence than by debauching a
young child by sending him into a,
saloon.
"There are some people who believe
that a saloonkeeper is about the worst
kind of a man hi tho world, just bo
cause ho Is a saloonkeeper, and who
believe that, he should be persecuted
until he Is driven out of tlio buslnesr.
That's not my idea. I think that the
men who are now paying $1,100 for a
license and who by so doing are con
tributing a third of the city's entire
revenues, should not be hounded at
every step and tempted Into disobeying
I he law by such tricks as those re
sorted to by Director Hitchcock's
agents." ,
Director Hitchcock when seen In his
oflic,. was visibly angry at the disposi
tion made of the cases by Magistrate
Millar.
AVHAT HITCHCOCK SAID.
"Ile might have had decency enough
lo hoar our evidence, at least," said
lie. "These persons who were arrested
have been flagrant violators of tlio law
In regard to selling to minors and they
have been frequently warned by this
department that trouble would follow
If they did not give up selling to chil
dren. "The bey who was sent in by the
agents to purchase, the beer was not
the only boy or girl who has bought
beer at these places. The proprietors
have been selling it to children of his
ago right tilling in open violation of
the law. T have had scores of com
plaints from persons in all parts of
the city protesting against this thing,
and T have determined that it shall
be stopped. A woman was in my office
only llie'other day, who said that she
hnd seen two youngsters about ten
years old go into a saloon and buy a
pail of beer and between them drink
it in an alley near the rear nf the sa
loon. "That's a nice foudilli.n of ulf.ihs.
isn't it'.' That's a condition of utfalis
that should be stopped, shouldn't it?
I would not be doing my duty if I al
lowed this sort of thing to continue
without hindrance,
WI1..I., PETITION COITJT.
"I shall petition court at once for a
revocation of the license of tho saloon
keepers who-were discharged ' yester
day by Magistrate Millar. 1 want it
distinctly understood that while the
speakeasies are to bo closed tin, tie'
licensed saloonkeeper will have to live
up to the law, also,"
Theie is very good ground for I bo be
lief that Recorder Molr nnd Director
Hitchcock had a lively tilt over this
matter vesiord.iy morning and that
some vorv pointed things were said
by both otllcials. It is understood Hint
the recorder Is opposed to the methods
adopted by the director In securing
the evidence.
At any into the dhector was heard
to say as he left the recorder's ofilco
Unit he'd run his depai lineiit ills own
way or gel out.

DIED WHILE TEACHING.
Plot'. Ginnt. Principal of tho High
- School. Fell Dond in tho Clnss
Room Ycstetdny Morning-.
IMoiessor Wlllurd W. (limit, princi
pal of the high school, dropped dead
yesterday morning about 11 o'clock,
while teaching a senior class In psehy
cology. He was sealed at the time In a class
loom on the first floor and by a strange
coincidence bad Just finished reading
the following words from a hook when
ho wtis rtrlcken with death: "Young
people, w will have our reward for
our fidelity in the next world." He
gasped for a moment, mumbled some
thing about opening the window, and
fell to thi floor.
Nearly every student In the class
started at once for a physician, nnd
in a tew minute.' there were half a
dozen on the scene. Professor (.rant
was dead when they arrived and all
seemed unanimous lu the belief that
death" wns caused by apoplexy. Cor
oner Roberts gave permission to have
the remains taken to the family home
and this was done.
Miss Kthel Grant, a daughter of the
professor. Is a pupil at the high school,
and was prostrated with grief when
taken Into the room whrro her father
lay cold in death. Vice Principal Wag
ner assumed charge of tho school and
ordered it dismissed for the day.
Professor Grant was a man of stt Ik
ing personality, being six feet four
inches high and weighing nearly 300
pounds. Jle was a most familiar fig
ure on the streets and once seen would
alwavs be remembered.
He was born about fifty-two years
ago in the northern part of New York
suite and was u man of unusual ex
perience and ability In Ills chosen pro
lessiott. He entered Harvard university
in iMi." and graduated high in his class
:n liOrt. He was known at college as
11 serious student who had llltlo time
for the lighter and more frivolous side
of college life.
Alter his graduation be returned lo
the western part of New York state,
where he married, and. together with
ids wife, started a preparatory school,
which they successfully conducted for
several years, at the end of which ho
was called to tin; prlnclpnlshlp of the
high school at Leavenworth, Kansas.
I.'iuii where, after remaining for sev
eral years, he went to Indianapolis to
take charge of tlio high school in that
city.
In Indianapolis Mr. Grant developed
the greatest succors of his life, in re
adjusting and re-arranging the entire
high school course. It was in tlio In
dianapolis high school while Mr. Grant
was principal that tho first experi
ments in the introduction of manual
training in the public schools of this
country were made.
So successful was the development
of this manual training idea by Mr.
Grunt that be was sought after nil over
the country as an authority on this
subject. Ills fame spread to the east
ern states and he was soon called to
Providence, 11. I where he assumed
charge of a very large public enter
prise in the manual training line.
After several years lie withdrew from
public work for a time and engaged in
private study and the tutoring of a
few pupils preparing for college. In
the summer of lS'.i'.i he was engaged
by the Scraulon school board as prin
cipal of the Scranton High school, a
position which lie filled from Septem
ber of that year until yesterday, with
credit to himself and to the satisfac
tion of all concerned in the educational
affairs of this city.
Ho was a member of tile JVnn Ave
nue P.aptist church and an earnest
and zealous Christian worker, doing
Hie Master's bidding lu till tilings that
were mete and proper. He Is survived
by a wife and five children, as fol
lows: Hthel, of tills city; Warren, of
Harvard university; lilauoho, of Mas
sachusetts; Pertha, of llhodo Island,
and Pearl, or South Dakota. The lat
ter three tire teachers.
The funeral will probably be held
on .Monday from the family home at
71h Madison avenue.
Coroner Huberts viewed the remains
shortly after death occurred ami
deemed tin inquest ilnecessury. Death
was duo to apoplexy, lie said.
A meeting of the High school com
mitco of the board of control was held
last night and word received from
Mrs. Grant that the funeral will bo
held on .Monday and will be private.
The delay Is caused by tile fact that
11 daughter teaching In South Dakota,
is coming to attend tho ceremony. Tho
coinuilUee decided Unit no session of
the High school should bo held either
today or Monday,
Tlio pupils will, however, nssembto
as usual this morning In tho auditori
um and there pass resolutions re
garding the untimely death of their
principal.

Vesterduy was the fourth day of tlio
Tribune's Kducatlnunl Contest, nnd it
was marked by the enrolling of throe
additional workers. In addition to
that, another of the contestants turned
In three points. The one to make his
debut in tho list of leaders Is Henry
Schwenker, of South Scranton. He Is
now tied with It. I.eo Huber, of Scran
ton, for first place. In it few days this
list of leaders will bo materially
lengthened. As soon as tho young
men and women w-ho have taken out
the subscription blanks get down to
earnest work there will be interesting
changes made from day to day. Too
much stress cannot be laid upon the
importance of turning In names as soon
as possible. Those' residing in Scran
ton should report nt the Tribune office
by 11 o'clock each afternoon. Points
seni in after that hour cannot be
citdited until tho following day.
New Contestants.
Tile new entries yesterday weto Miss
Vlda Pedrick, of Clark's Summit, Miss
Hilda M". Depow, of Jormyn, and J.

Contestants may help themselves ma.
terially by turning in the points they
secure as soon as possible.', for if their
names are printed as being- iimong the
leaders they can then point out to
prospective subscribers that Iheyslund
:i first class show of winning one of tho
special rewards. Besides tills excellent
reason for turning points in promptly,
a subscriber is always much better
pleased if he leceives his paper tho day
after ho bus paid for it. ,
Somo ftuootions Answered.
one or the contestants asked yester
day what he should do when a sub
scriber asked him for a receipt. He
was told to give the subscriber a
memorandum receipt of the amount
turned in nnd when he forwauled the
subscription to tho homo office accom
panied by the cash, tlio subscriber
would have a regular Tribune receipt
sent to him. This unswer will apply
to all contestants, and the sooner the
subscription is sent to I lie Tributu
olllce the quicker the subscriber will
n ceivo bis receipt, and the contestant
will be credited with tho number of
points and be advanced among- the
leaders.
Another contestant asked it" she
could secure persons who had stopped
