The bluff which "Corporal" William Clark, the pseudo-soldier, hungr out when arrested on Thursday, was swept aside yesterday, when A. AV. Bowman, of Hamburg1,' Berks county, confronted him. -Bowman is the man from whom Clark stole the horse.lhe news of which led to the latler's arrest. AVhen Clark saw Bowman he acknowlodRfld his of fence. Bowman intends to press the charge of larceny against Clark In the Berks county courts.. Chief MeAndrew, to whom alone Clark's apprehension and arrest are due, has collected enough evidence to prove that Clark is not a model young man. On his person was a letter which showed his intention to destroy the happiness of the family ivlth whom ho stayed In Hamburg-. It Is, behaved thut ho left a bud record behind him In Lew ishurg.

The regular meeting ot the borough ot Jermyn council was held last even ing and was attended by a large num ber of citizens, tho Interest being cen tered In the electric light contract, which It was expected would be award ed. It will he remembered that at tho lust meeting bids were received from several coinnanks, the lowest being from the Jermyn Electric- Light com pany, which offered to light tho bor ough on a five-year contract for $70 per light per year. A private Individual, Frank Hemelrlght, a citizen of tho borough, also had n bid In, which wns lower than any, offering to supply lights for $Gn.3G per light per year. A question arose as to the legality ot the council entering Into u contract with u private Individual, and tho matter was laid over to obtain legal advice on tho matter. Following Is the reply of Bor ough Solicitor Mulhollnnd, which Sec retary Jones rend: "In regard to tho right of tho bor ough to cease taking light from tho Jermyn Electric Light, Heat and Power company, or an Individual, to furnish tho borough with light, I have given tho matter a very thorough investiga tion, and I believe I .have seen all the authorities In the state on tho ques tion. "The question of the right of the borough to cease taking light ot the old company at the discretion of tho borough officers is an unsettled ques tion. There .are two decisions of the Supremo court, and one of the com monwealth, which hold In a general way that electric light companies have no exclusive right to furnish light to a borough or a city the same as water companies have to furnish water. These three cases lean strongly In favor of the right of tho borough to let Its contract to any company it chooses. "These Is another case, a case in which ono of the judges of the west ern counties of the slate, which holds that the borough or city cannot cease at its pleasure taking light from airold company which has been furnishing a. borough or city with light, and enter Into a, contract with a new company. This last decision puts the right of electric light companies on the same level as water cntnuaules. It Is, how ever, a decision of a lower court and, of course, may be appealed from and revised by the Supreme court. "As far as giving the contract to an individual Is concerned, tho trouble with that would be that the individual would not have the right to use tho streets for tho purpose of erecting poles and stringing wires without get ting u franchise front tho state to do so. To get a right to use tho streets, authority from the state, as well as from the borough, is necessary. "The weight of authority so far ren dered in the state would seem to be In favor of the right of tho borough to let Its light contract to any company it chooses, provided the company has a franchise to light the borough." As the letter did not properly solve the matter according to Councilman T, K. Moon's Idea, he moved the matter be laid over again until such time as council obtain fuller Information on thu question. A number of bills were read and or dered paid, among them one for the payment of the Jeansvllle pump at the bore-hole. The bill, with Interest, amounted to SCo3.19, but on considera tion of payment in a week, the com pany's attorney agreed to throw oft the Interest, reducing tho bill to $ISt.8S. Mr. and Mrs, John D. Prltchard and daughter, Fern, were visiting friends ut AVIIkes-Barre on New Year's day, on their way home from Pittsburg. Tho Delaware and Hudson colliery employes will be paid on Tuesday af ternoon.
