DREDGE THE RIVER BED.
Councilman Cnlpin's Scheme for Pre
venting Floods and Removing
Disense-Brceding Sewage.
President P. P. Cnlpln, of the com
mon council, believes that the cheapest
way to prevent a repetition of the dis
astrous Hoods of lost week and to in
sure the existence of healthy conditions
along the lino of the Lncknwanna river
is to deepen the channel of that stream
by dredging.
Ho Introduced a resolution In common
council last night requesting the direc
tor of public works to submit to coun
cils an estimate of the cost of dredg
ing the river from city lino to city line.
The resolution was passed unanimously
without discussion. In speaking about
it to a Tribune man, Air. Calpln said:
"I have come to the conclusion that
the deepening of the channel of the
Lnckawanna liver within the city lim
its is the only feasible way of prevent
ing such terrible damase as was done
last week by the Hood. It would be a
big undertaking to dredge the liver for
such a distance, but I don't think the
cost would be excessively high. I think
It could bo done for $100,000 or $150,000,
but that is only a guess.
"The deepening of the channel would
be also a great advantage from a sani
tary standpoint. The number of sewers
emptying into the river is becoming
larger every year, and in a very short
time conditions which are now disease
breeding will become unbearable. I re
fer to conditions along the river from
June to October, when there is very
little water flowing and when sewage,
instead of going down with the stream,
lodges around rocks and stones in the
river bed, or in little eddies which may
be formed near shore.
"The stench from this sewage on a
hot day Is something that cannot be
described. I know that the residents of
my ward, who live near the river, tire
continually complaining of it, and I
know that a very considerable portion
ot the disease which exists in this city
in the summer time can be traced to it.
If $100,000 or $200,000, for that matter,
will remedy these conditions, I say that
it will bo money well spent."

OLYPHANT WOMEN JAILED FOR
STREET WALKING.
They Are Married and Claimed to
Be Seeking a Hotel When Taken
Into Custody Yesterday Morning.
Their Husbands Canto on tho Sceuo
nnd They Wore Arrested All
Fined After a Hearing Appeal
Taken nnd Damage Suits Will
rrobobly Result.
Tho arrest ot Air. nnd Airs. John
O'Dowd.nnd of Air. and Alts. P. II.
Crnndnll, of Olypluint, early yesterday
morning by Patrolman John AIcAIul
Ion, promises to bo the cause of action
against the city. Attorney Joseph
O'liiien, utter a hearing held lato yes
terday afternoon, said there Is trouble
ahead for the patrolman nnd the city.
Moth Airs. Crnndnll nnd Airs. O'Dnwd
wero arrested for being drunk and
street walking, while their husbands
were charged with being drunk and
with Interfering with an olllcor. At the
hearing before Atugistrutc Howe yester
day afternoon, the defendants were rep
resented by Attorney Joseph O'Brien,
while City Solicitor Watson and his as
sistant, . J. Davis, appeared for the
police. Attorney O'niien had a sten
ographer on hand taking the testi
mony. Patrolman AIcAIulleti, who made tho
arrests, testified that at 3.10 o'clock yes
terday jnornlng he saw Airs. Crandull
and Airs. O'Dowd leave "Itoxlo" Jones'
saloon, on Spruce street, unaccom
panied, and start for Penn avenue. He
stopped them at the corner and In
quired where they were going. They
told him they were seeking n hotel, ho
said, and that their husbands were just
behind, whereat ho placed them under
arrest and toolc them down Penn ave
nue toward Center street. Just as be
was turning Into Center street with
them, Airs. Crandull screamed and
broke away, he said. She ran toward
Lackawanna avenue and met Attorney
Thomas J. Duggun, whom she pleaded
with for protection.
HUSBANDS APPEARED.
AIcAIullen said he caught hold of Airs.
O'Dowd and followed after Airs. Cran
dull. Just as he caught up with the
latter, the women's two husbands came
dashing down the street and stepped
between him and his prisoners. Air.
O'Dowd, lie said, called him a "fake,"
and both interfered with him so that
he placed them under arrest also,
marching the four up to the Center
street police station, where they were
kept all night. He said that both the
women and men appeared to be intoxi
cated. On cross-examination by Attorney
O'Brien, he admitted that the women
were walking along In a peaceable,
orderly manner and that they were
neither boisterous or disorderly when
he placed them under arrest.
Patrolman John Thomas, who was In
charge at the station house, and Lieu
tenant James Feeney testified that all
four of the prisoners seemed to bo
drunk and that they made a loud
noise in tho station house. Patrolman
Thomas said O'Dowd told him that bo
"ought to be shot down like the Boers."
He put the charge of "drunk" on the
books because bis previous experience
with drunken people led him to believe
that they were all drunk.
Airs. O'Dowd, an attractive young
woman, testified in her own behalf. She
said she and her husband, together
with Mr. and Airs. Crnndnll, came down
from Olyphnnt on Wednesday night to
go to the theatre. They attended tho
performance at the Academy of Alusic,
and after the play her husband said
that he wanted to go to "Iloxie" Jones'
place to seo about purchasing some
linoleum for his saloon in Olyphnnt.
She didn't know the character of tho
place and went In with tho rest of tho
party." They went to the back room,
where they remained for two hours,
while her husband had a conversation
with Jones. She was served with beef
tea, as was also Airs. Crandall, She
drunk no intoxicants, she said.
WENT TO STATION.
All four left for the Delaware and
Hudson station after 1 o'clock to take
tho train homo, but were told it had
gone, and started back to tho Coyne
house to stay over night. They decided
to go back first to Jones' and see it
they couldn't strike a better bargain.
They again went into the saloon, going
upstairs, and remained there until 3
o'clock, when she (Airs. O'Dowd) com
plained of being tired. Her husband
told her and Airs. Crnndnll to go to tho
Coyne house and get rooms, promising
that he and Crandall would follow at
once. Airs. O'Dowd thought Patrolman
AlcMullen was taking her and Airs.
Crandall to a. hotel at first, as she told
him she was seeking one, and became
greatly agitated when she learned she
was under arrest.
Her husband corroborated her testi
mony, denied that she was drunk or
that anyone else In the party was In
toxicated, but admitted having "said
things" to the officers because of his
rage at seeing his wifo arrested. He
nalil that ho had several hundred dol
lurs In his pocket, but was not allowed
to leave a forfeit for tho pnrty ot the
station house. He, himself, but recent
ly came to Olypluint and had no knowl
edge of tho character of "Roxle's"

POLICE DENOUNCED.
Air. Watson, In summing up, said
that the oflleer hud not exceeded his
rights, and wan Justified In urresllng
the women under tlio circumstances.
Air. O'Hiion bitterly denounced the ac
tion of tho police.
"It's an everlasting disgrace lo our
police force," he said, "to have these
two women who, according to the tes
timony of the olllcer himself, were vliv
biting no law, grabbed up like a couple
of common prostitutes and locked In a
cnll."
Magistrate Howe lined each ot tlio
four prisoners $3,und Air. O'Brien
promptly gave ball for an appeal, an
nouncing that damage suits will follow,
and that charges will bo preferred
against Patrolman AIoMullen and Pa
trolman Thomas, the latter for refusing
to accept a forfeit,
storivThasabated.
Traffic Is Being Reopened on tho
Trolley Linos and Steam Roads.
Making Schedule Time. .
It ceased snowing about 5 o'clock yes
terday morning and there followed a
blight, sunny, though not warm day
that was positively Ideal as compared
with most of Its Immediate predeces
sors. The Scranton Railway company hnd
all Its available men with cars and'
sweepers at work all night and nil of
yesterday. By nightfall they bad suc
ceeded In opening up tho Dunmore Su
burban, Petersburg, Green Ridge Peo
ple's, Green RIdgo Suburban, South
Alnln and Laurel Hill lines. Today if
nothing intervenes, the Lafayette,
Washburn, Luzerne, Bellevue, Stone
avenue, South Side, Providence and
Inter-urban lines will be opened.
The effects of tho snow storm on the
railroads entering Scranton was not
as serious as was generally expected.
Trains wero run yesterday nearer to
schedule time than on any day during
the past week.
The Bloomsburg division of tho
Lackawanna railroad, which wa- tied
up by reason of tho flood, was re
opened yesterday and trains were run
through to Northumberland. This di
vision bns been affected since last Fri
day. Tho regular running schedule will
be In force this morning.
Operations were resumed yesterday
at the Bellevue and Dodge collieries,
and at all the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western washerlcs, and it Is ex
pected all the other collieries will be In
operation the first of next week.
The total depth of the snowfall was
12.8 Inches. This is not considered suf
ficient to occasion any serious swelling
of the streams, even If there should bo
a sudden thaw. The forecast for today
Is fair, with increasing cloudiness to
wards nightfall.
CITY'S CREDIT GOOD.
Number of Inquiries Regarding the
Proposed Bond Issue.
That Scranton's credit is A No. 1 Is
proven every day by tho number of
letters beinf, received asking informa
tion regarding the coming issue of
bonds, despite thy fact that no adver
tisement of the proposed issue has ap
peared as yet In any of tho financial
papers, it can be seen from these that
there will he 110 dearth of bidders.
When the bond ordinance comes up
rgain in councils, an amendment will
bo offered, pioviding that tho bonds
shall be free Horn all taxes, which the
city shall agree to assume and pay. A
number of those who havo inquired
about the bonds have stipulated that
they will not be taken up if the state
tax on loans must bo paid by the
holders.

CHILD VACCINATED HERSELF.
Her Body Broken Out in Many
Places with Sores.
Tho little daughter of Air, and Airs,
AI, B. Callahan, of Humtown, Plttston,
has broken out nil over her body In
eruptions, which the physicians believe
tiro vaccination sores.
She was vaccinated two( weeks ago,
and It "took" In very aggravated form.

ered some of tho virus beneath her
finger nails and thus transmitted It to
other parts of her body, Sho Is in a
very serious condition.
