LIBEL CASE SETTLED.
Little Retracts Everything He Ever
Said Derogatory of Mitchell and
Other Mine Workers' Officials.
The criminal llbrd aase, In which
Kdltnr Ttlchanl Uttlo, of the Scran
tmlan. is defendant, and President
John Mit diell. of the I'nlted Mine
Workeir. prosecutor, will not be tried.
A verdict of not guilty Is to be taken
tomorrow, likely, and on Sunday
tU'Nt. the Scrantonlan will print a re
traction of everything It ever said de
rogatory of President 'Mitchell and the
other olliuals of the United Mine

The settlement was effected at a
meeting in the office of O'Brien d,
Martin, attorneys for the prosecution,
which began nt ,i o'clock last evening
and continued for three hours. Mr.
Little was present, with his attorney,
John J. Murphy. Hesides Mr. Mit

present all the leading Mine Workers'
ofliciuls of this district, and Martin
D. Flaherty, ex-presldent nf the Cen
tral Labor union, who was one of
those maligned by the Scrantonlan.

that Kditor Little gains by his retrac
tion. As to the matter of putting the
Scrantonlan buck In favor with the
labor unions Is left to work Itself out.
President Mitchell and the other Mine
Workers refused lo interfere In this

ber of the Scrantonlan stafr was de

Another conference of the parties to
the settlement Is scheduled for today.
The arrangement for the payment of

tically all that remains to complete
the negotiations.
NO FOOD FOR FOUR DAYS.
Set of False Teeth She Swallowed
Prevented Gertrude Reddington
From Taking Nourishment.
neitrude P.eddington, of Olyphant,
who Inst Thuirday accidentally swal
lowed a set of false teeth, Is now at
the Lackawanna hospital and her case
is proving n puzzler to the members
of the rerdilen' Man. The young wo
men does r.et appear to suffer very
much pain, but nevertheless the in
terior of one's stomach Is hardly the
p!ae for a set of molarr and it is
pii".7.llns the doctors' ingenuity to de
vise some means of removing them.
At first there was great danger that
Miss lli'ildlngton would starve to
death, as the foih blocked her oeso
phagus, the tube leading from the
throat to the stomach, nnd for over
lour days -Mie was unable to take any
nourishment. On Monday the doctor.
by means of an Instrument known as
the probnng pushed the obstructing
molars down into the stomach, slnc
which time the patient has seemed to
be In less pain, An X-ray picture will
li" taken to-day to determine the
exact location nf the teeth and an
(; elation may follow.

LICENSE TAX
DISCUSSED
COMMITTEE WENT OVER ORDI
NANCE LAST NIGHT.
It Was Decided to Recommend tho
Adoption of Numerous Amend
ments, Nono of Which, However,
Affect That Part of tho Ordinance
Providing for a Tax Upon the
Gross Rccoipts of the Big Corpora-tions-The
Changes Which Will
Be Recommended.
The license committee nf the select
council met last night In City Solicitor
Watson's olllcc and spent two hours
and a half In considering the various
license tax ordinances proposed by the
latter olllclal and Introduced In .select
council last Thursday night by Coun
cilman Cosgrove.
There was a general discussion as to
the advisability of reporting favorably
upon all or the first section or the or
dinance which provides rot- a tax ot
two per cent, upon the gross receipts
of telegraph, telephone, electric light,
heal and power and steam heat com
panies and for a tax of live per cent,
upon the gross receipts of gas, water
and street railway companies.
While all of tile tveinhct-M nf tin
committee present seemed to favor the
Imposition of such a lax upon these
several corporations nevertheless there
was a difference of opinion as to the
advisability of providing for all In one
ordinance. The members seemed to
have a premonition of the strength or
the Influences which will be brought to
bear against this part or the ordin
ance and appeared a little lilt shy of
biting off so much at once.
City Solicitor Watson suggested that
It might he advisable to cut out all
except tho provision for a tax on
street railway companion nnd Intro
duce gradually separate ordinances
covering the other corporations. Mr.
Costello was Inclined to agree with
him on this point, but the committee
finally decided at the suggestion of
Mr. Costello to report favorably upon
all of this section.
Tho committee decided to Introduce
an amendment reducing the tax on
public halls having a capacity or less
than .100 from $.10 to $!.". An amend
ment cutting out the tax of $! on one
horse wagons and nf $.1 on two horse
wagons and Inserting in lieu thereof
a similar lax on one and two horse
cabs was adopted. Another amend
ment agreed upon provides for a tax
of S10 on wagons used for carrying
baggage.
Another amendment provides for a
i eduction of the tax on book agents
from $2,1 to $10, and for an increase of
the tax on lumber dealers not subject
to the mercantile tax law from $10 to
$2.1. Another amendment approved of
increases the tax on real estate agents
from $10 to $2.1.
AN ILLI'STRATION.
Mr. Merriman, a member of the
committee, gave a little Illustration
which showed the need of the passage
of at least one section of the ordin
ance. He said that during the past
few weeks a sales agent for a big
grocery house in Ohio had been so
liciting grocery orders from persons in
Green Ridge, thn goods to bo sent on
c. O. D. by express. This agent, who
is taking trade away from the local
