Mediation Committee of Business and Professional Men Succeeds in Having Its Proposition Accepted by Both Sides Hope of a Settle ment Being- Effected Ib Not Confi dently Held by All the Members of the Commltteo, but They Believe It Will Have Good Effect. (ioiienil Malinger Kllllinaii and the slieet car strikers are to come together, probably tomorrow. The time and place for the meeting have not as yet been definitely set, but the likelihood Is that tomorrow afternoon, at Carpenter's hall, will be llxed upon, Sol lioltlsinlth. 11. J, Collins, A. H. Wurman and Dlstilet Attorney W. H. Lewis, as a stib-conunlttee of tlio medi ation committee, walled on the strik ers' executive hoard, yeslcrday morn lug, to receive their answer to the proposition to have the whole body of stilkers meet Mr. Sllllmnn. The hoard reported Mint the strikers were agree able to this, and that any time after lonlght would suit them. They aie con ducting an entertainment and hall at Sarsileld hall, Avoca, tonight. This was reported to the general mediation committee at a meetlnc In Mr. Hums' ofllee at 11 o'clock, and word was sent lo Mr. Sllllmnn. Friday would bo suitable to lilin, he said. The members of the mediation com mittee1 are hopeful that Mils meeting will terminate the strike, but some of tlicin are not overly confident of any thing being accomplished further than the enlightenment of each side ns to wheio the other stands. WHAT COMPANY HULIHVFS. The company is satisfied that a ma jority of the men aie anxious to return to work, and that If given an oppor tunity to vote, by secret ballot, on a motion to accept the offer of the com pany to take back as many of them as theie are places for, without regard to whether or not they are union men, the motion will he carried. The strike leaders, on the oilier hand, believe the men ate as determined as ever to hold out to the end for the granting of their full demands, and that when the vole is counted not a single ballot will be cast In favor of accepting the company's offer. The proposed meeting v. Ill at least determine which side has been receiv ing tlio more leliable reports of Inside conditions. The mediation loinmlttee is being congratulated on all sides tor what it has accomplished thus far. and Its members are hourly in receipt of mes sages urging them to keep up their ac tivities until their effoits aie eiov.ned with complete suceos. They are lo be present at the meet ing between Mr. Silllman and the strik ers, and it is their purpose to exhaust every means at their command to have the controversy settled before, the gen eral manager and the strikers part company. One thing they piopose to do is to point out to the company and the men that the only difficulty now standing hi the way of a .settlement is no dlflicully at all. The men demand that they bo taken back in a body. The company says It can not agree to do this, because it doc-u not know that il will have places for all of them. This would seem, at lirsl blush, to preclude I he possibility of settlement. Hut such is not tlio case. PLACKS TO Jill F1LLF.D. Thine are a." places lo be filled, that being the number of men on stiike. Fifty or slxtv or the strikers have se cured good Jobs and will not go back to the cars. Of all the men employed at present by the company, not over fifty will, under any consideration, lontinue to work after the strike is settled, the others being Drummond agency men, who will bo found nu their way to New York un hour after the strike is de clared oil". This would leave places for every man on strike. The company knows this, and the strikers know It. It will be the task of the mediation committee lo get both sides lo acknowl edge this, and, out of consideration for the public, if not for themselves, waive technicalities ami get down to common house business MRS.

Nothing' Done with Ordinance Fixing- Magistrates' Salaries, There wns 110 meeting lust ulghl of the rounellnmniu conference cntntnll tee, appointed (o come to uu under stmidliig on llio police maglstrales' sal ary oullnance, only one of the select coiincllinen, Adam Schroeder, pull lug In un tippearaiicc. The three common coiiuclhucii and Mr. Schroeder ud joitrncd lo meet next Monday night. When the ordinance In inioslloti du ally passed common council, It pio vliled for 11 salary of $100 for each of tlio II vi! pollen magistrates, it was amended by select council so as to pro vide a salary or $-l"iO for each of the magistrates In the Khst and second districts, of MOO each for the magis trates In llio Third and Fourth districts ami of $.10(1 for the magistrate In ilia Filth dlstilet. Common council refused lo concur In these amendments, hence Ibe appointment ot n conference com mittee. There seems to be very little hope that the members of the conference riiinmlllec will agree, Common Coun cilman Fred Phillips, who Is one of the member1 of the committee and who led the; fight for equal salaries, said last ulghl: "I'm still in favor of equal lights to nil and favors lo none. Tlio common council end of the committee won't budge front that position," CONSTABLES BILLS HAVE BEEN FILED Two of Them Who Served Most of the Contestants' Subpoenas Make Claim for Nearly $10,000. Another big item of the expenses con nected with the LungstafC-Kelly elec tion contest, the constable's fees, is now ascertainable, approximately. S. S. AVert, deputy constable of the Third ward of Dunmore, nnd T. 1-3. Reynolds, deputy constable of the Fifth ward, Scranlon, who served most of the subpoenas for the contestant, have tiled their bills. Mr. Wert claims $C.;;j.iO, and Air. Reynolds, $:,r3,V.:o. The total. $S.0iilMH. represents the cost of summoning nearly one-half the to tal number of witnesses. This means that the whole bill for serving sub poenas will amount lo about $23,000. when the $1,000 or $l,r.00 bill of the sheiilf for serving capiases is Included. Allowing W.r.Otl for tlio fees and mile age of witnesses, the cost of the con test will foot up .$7.",000 in round num bers, divided as follows: tiiiitiii"iutieii strnnj-iunliin CYm-Ulili- .... Ml I new- ... l "'il . J'l.'i'l . '."..(mil . JVD0 s.Vi.l.'.il Some .subir.Klion may be made from the constables' bills, as was the case with the estimates of the commission ers and stenographers, which the court last week 1 educed from $",11,000 lo $2;, :0o. In these constables' bills the full limit is 1 cached in every charge. Fifty cents is claimed for every witness summoned and at least ton cents' mile age. In places like Old Forge, where the people are scattered, a mileage charge of thirty cents is placed after each name, making the total cost of serving the subpoena eighly cents. About eveiy twenty or so Carbondnle names are preceded by a charge of $.340, representing mileage from Scranlon and return. The same is repeated in the case of all the other towns, the charge varying according to the num ber of miles. To serve David E. Kvans of the Second ward of Taylor, who hap pened to be up in Nicholson, it cost 7.I0. Constable Wert's siateiuenL of claims mnnbeis 313 pages, and that of Con stable Reynolds, 131 pages. There aro twenty-six names to a page, making 12,1 IL names all told. As there were not more than 13,000 witnesses exam ined on both sides, it would appear that in numerous cases 11 was necessary to make moie than one trip to serve the subpoena. Court will piobably not pass on the claims until all of them ate presented. HE STOLE A PUMP. Archibald Muir Taken Into Custody by His Employer, J. B. Poore.

Dounstuiis the poker chips weie dumped Into a box and an effort was made to hide the drinkables, but it was unsuccessful, as the olllceis scatteied over the- house very quickly. Some of the inmates made an effort lo geL out through the windows, but when they looked out and saw the silent cordon of blueeoats standing outside, they gave up the attempt and submitted peaceably. The basement of the place was found to be well stocked with wines, liquors and beer, and there were no less than eight tables for drinkeis found. The floor was covered with sawdust. An adjoining room contained several taldes for gambling, and a largo supply of poker chips and cauls were found nnd confiscated. PARLOR FOR DANC1XC..
