Immediate Settlement of the Street
Car Strike Depends on a Con
ference to Be Held Today.
All of yesterday the "new forces" at
work on the settlement of the street
car strike were busy negotiating with
the company and the strikers. At 1
o'clock this morning, the strikers hud
agreed upon a proposition which the
"new forces" believed would be ac
ceptable to the company. The "new
forces" will submit this proposition to
General Manager Silllman today, and
If he agrees to "it, a special meeting
of the strikers will be called forthwith
to declare the strike off.
One of the "new forces" said to a
Tribune man this morning: "The con
tending parties were not far apart last
night, and tonight they are still closer.
It looks as if an adjustment would be
reached in a very short time."
A member of tho strikers' exeputlve
committee said: "We are looking for
a speedy settlement. The terms of set
tlement are not all that we ought to
get considering the fight we have made,
but we are willing to make sacrifices
for the welfare of the public which has
made so many sacrifices for us."
The success of the new movement
depends on a conference to be had to
day between General Manager Silllman
and a prominent citizen, who Is tho
leader of the "new forces." His name
is withheld at his own urgent request.

WON'T GIVE UP
THE CLERKSHIP
APPROPRIATION BILL NOT YET
AGREED TO.
Democrats of Common Council Re
fuse to Concur in the Recommenda
tion of the Committee Appointed to
Adjust the Differences of the Two
Branches on the Estimates Budget
and the New Council Will Have to
Provldo for tho City's Expense.
Tho Select Council.
Unless an agreement can bo reached
tit the adjourned sessions to be held
at 9 o'clock, an hour before rc-orgnnl-zatlon,
next Mondny morning, the ap
propriation ordinance Is dead, nnd the
Incoming councils will have to fiico tho
task of framing and passing a new ap
propriation ot dimmer. While this Is
being done the various city depart
ments will bo 'absolutely without funds
nnd oillululs und employes cannot draw
any pay.
Tho report of tho confetencc commit
tee framed at Wednesday night's con
ference provided that the ?G0O Item for
a common council clerk and $1U5 for
extra water rent should be left out ot
tho ordinance und the other two dis
puted Items, $800 for tho Keyser Valley
Hose company and $1,140 for an as
sistant city engineer should be allowed
to remain.
Select council was ngroeable to tho
recommendations of tho conference
committee, but it did not get an op
portunity of voting on them. The re
port went into common council first
and there it was flagged. The Demo
cratic commoners would not agree t,o
the killing of the clerkship item, and
voted against accepting the recommen
dations of the conference committee.
Mr. Coleman, a Democratic member of
tho conference committee, voted with
tho Republicans. Mr. Norton, the oth
er Democratic conferee, did not vote.
Tho division was as follows:
THE VOTE.

Calpin 13.
Messrs. Keller, Partridge and Paine
changed their votes before tho xesult
was announced that they might be in
a position to move a reconsideration if
opportunity of adopting the report pre
sented itself. It was agreed by a mo
tion from the Demociatlc side that
when council adjourned it should be to
meet Monday morning at 9 o'clock.
Select council is also to meet at the
same hour. It is possible that the or
dinance may be passed at these meet
ings, but this is a rather bare possibil
ity. Before passing fiom the considera
tion ot the measure, the Democrats
carried a motion to recommit it to the
estimates committee. Under the law
the ordinance should have been passed
before the last day of February.
Ordinances passed third and final
leading as follows: Piovlding for the
distiibution of city advertising: ap
propi luting funds to pay state tax on
loans; requiring street cars to be pro
vided with fenders and wheel guards;

BOARD OF EXAMINERS
NAMED BY JUDGES
They Will Pass Upon the Fitness of,
Candidates for the Office of
Mine Inspector.
As a first step towaids making opei
ntlvc the new mine inspection act,
Judges Edwards, Kelly and Newcomb
yesterday appointed George Watklns,
Timothy D. Hayes and John Boland,
miners, and Iteese A. Phillips and
James Young, mining engineers, to
comprise the board of examiners of
candidates for Inspectorships.
Tho new law, known ns the Garner
act, makes the Inspectors elective In
stead of appointive; increases the num
ber of inspectors from eight to six
teen; rearranges the inspection district
lines so that there shall be sixteen in
stead of eight districts, and provides
that every operated chamber in every
district shall be visited by an inspector
at least once in every two months.
The inspectois are to be elected next
fall. In this county, which Is made to
comprise the Second Inspection dis
trict, there aro to be four inspectors
instead of two as ut present. Only two
Inspectors, however, are to bo elected
next fall, as the terms of the pres-ent
appointive Inspectors, Edward Roder
ick, of the Fiist Lackawanna dlstilct,
nnd Henry O. Prytherch, of the Second
Lackawanna district, do not expire un
til five years from the present mouth,
each just having been reappointed for
a full term, and, under the law, can
not be disturbed.
The candidates for Inspector must
register with tho county commlssloneis
six months pi lor to election day, and
submit to an examination us to their
competency, by the board yesterday ap
pointed by the court. Any candidate
who answers 90 per cent of the ques
tions submitted by the board Is eligible
to election. Tho elective term Is three
years. The salary Is to remain as be
fore, $3,000 per annum.
The four sub-districts into which the
county is to be divided are to be fixed
by the chief oC the bureau pf mines
after the election.
In drafting the Gurnet' bill, by some
oversight, D.iuphln, Wayne, Susque
hanna, Lebanon and Sullivan counties
were not Included In any uf the new
Inspection districts. The bill, it will
be remembered, was vigorously op
posed, not only by tho pies-ent Inspec
tors, but by repiL'Sentntlves of the
miners, and there Is u probability the
act will bo attacked in tho courts on
the constitutional giound of spetlul
legislation.
The Inspectors opposed It mainly be
cause of Its making the office elective
and Its provision that each working
place bo vlHltcd al lenst once In two
months, which they claim Is a physical
impossibility. Those of the mlneis
who opposed It contended It would have
a tendency to Introduce politics Into
their union and causo hurtlul dissen
sions. WAS VERY FORGIVING
Mrs. Abdu Abdula Took the Hus
band Who Deserted and Bob
bed Her Back Again.
Mis, Abdu Abdula, of 90S Juckbon
street, had her husband arraigned be
fore Alderman Kellow yesterduy on tho
charges of desertion, non-support,
adultery and bigamy. Hut she is for
giving and after the hearing she agreed
to tuke him to her homo and her affec
tions. He agreed to return, pay her
$500 of a $1,000 ho took from her when
ho eloped Bomo weeks ago with a
younger woman,
Abdu becunio ennmored of a young
Arabian woman whom he brought to
this country several months ago fiom
her native land. She lived with him
and hlifwlfo as a servant, working out
tho money ho advanced to pay for her
passage, February 26. Abdula and tho
girl disappeared und w(th them went
$1,000 which belonged to Audit's wlfo.
The latter traced tho elopers to Phila
delphia und then caused warrants to
be Issued for their urrest.
, Constable Jarnes Clark went to the
Quaker "City and picked Abdu up. The
woman he eloped with has not yet been
located.
Last night there was a celebration lu
the Avablun settlement In honor of' the
return of 'the erring one and his i''ug
forgiven. ,
M'ANDREW IS
THE CHOICE
DEFEATED COSTELLO BY A VOTE
OF SIX TO FIVE.
Democrats of Select Council Finally
Agree on Their Candidate for
Chairman and Pledge Their Eleven
Votes to His Support Four Re
publicans of Common Council He
fuse to Commit Themselves and
Leave the Situation in the Lower
Branch no Hazy as Evor All De
pends on the Four.
Tho eleven Democrats who will bo In
the new select council came to an
agreement on the chnlrmanshlp at a
caucus held last night In the St.
Charles. After voting down a motion
,to have Messrs. McAndrew and Costel
lo with Chairman Qulnunn und two
others, select the candidate, a secret
ballot wus taken, and Mr. McAndrew
was chosen by a vote of six to five.
All of the eleven stood up und pledged
themselves to support Mr. McAndrew,
Tho Republicans of select council, as
far as nin be learned, have given up
hopes of controlling the organization.
There Is, however, a persistent rumor
to the offect that Mr, Oliver is to be
elected by the ten Republicans and one
Democrat. Tho Democrat who, It Is
alleged, Is to vote for Mr. Oliver stated
positively to a Tribune reporter lust
night, that he would support the choice
of the Democratic caucus.
Tho situation in the common council
Is rather hazy. Both the Republicans
and Democrats held caucuses last
night, but neither resulted In an assui
ance of victory for either side.
Messrs. Keller, Paine, Partridge and
Harvey, four Republicans, hold the
balance of power. They say they are
not as much Interested In the chair
manship us they are in the clerkship.
They demand that thp $600 item for a
clerk of common council shall be
stricken out and that the nsststant
city clerk shall bo called upon to do
the work.
The Democrats agreed to sacrifice
the clerk for the election of Mr. Calpin
and the quartette in question half
agreed. It Is said, to support Mr. Cal
pin under this consideration, providing
the Republicans wouldn't. The Repub
licans last night had a consultation'
with Messrs. Keller, Paine and Part
ridge, and endeavored to conciliate
them. As far as could be learned no
pledges were exchanged. The Demo
crats met In the St. Charles hotel, and
after reviewing the situation resolved
to wait until Saturday night before
taking final action, on the proposition
to win the support of the Keller-Palne-Harvey-Partridge
quartette by sacrific
ing the clerk.
The situation is further complicated
by a provision of the new charter, to
tho effect that the lecorder&hull not
approve of any appropriation for cur
rent expenses, until provision has
been made for meeting all the fixed
expenses. The leorg.inizatlon ordin
ances provides for a clerk of common
council at a salary ot $600 a year. If
an appropriation is not made to meet
this expense the ordinance, so it Is al
leged, can not legally bo signed by the
recorder. It is further claimed that
Recorder Connell takes this view of
it, but he refuses to anticipate what
will be his com so In case the bill comes
to' him without the common council
clerkship appropriation included.
A NEW DIGEST.
Measure to Be Introduced Piovlding
for Preparation of Ouo.
A special ordinance appiopriatlng
tunds to pay for tho compilation of and
publishing ot a new digest of second
class city laws applicable to this city
and of all ordinances with penally
ulauseii passed by the local councils,
will be Introduced shoitly after tho
leorganizalkm of councils, with the ap
proval of the lecoidor and the city
faOlicitOI".
The need of a new digest bus been
great and preying ever since Scranton
formally entered the second class. Tho
