KAKY DAMAOE SUITS.
They Are to Bo Instituted by Oly
phant Property Owners,
yullB for (liiiunsefl that will affgre
Rnle M00.000 nro to be filed against tho
Delaware & Hudson company by prop
erty owners of Olynlmnt flats. In
Jury to property by reason of floods,
which nte attributed to the nnrrowlng
of the river by the company, form the
basis of the suits.
One of the suits was Bturteil yester
day by Attorney A. A. Chase. The
plaintiff Is Mnrtln Oldcmlnke, a truck
gardener nnd ho asks damages In the
sum of $7,000.
tils Raidens are on the flats a short
distance south of Olyphant. Several
times during tho past two years the
river has ovei flowed Its banks JttRt
above his place. The water wnshed
down on his gardens, destroying vege
tation and covering the land with mud
nnd culm. During tho past winter
when the big floods were on, the gar
dens were under several feet of water.
It Is alleged that the overflow of the
river Is due to the nctlon of the com
pany In encroaching on the river bed
near tlio railroad 'bridge. Dirt and
st6nes, It Is elnlmed.Miave been dump
ed Into tho river on the one side,
while on the other the river bed has
been seized upon for a mine track.
This ho narrows the river that In time
of oven ordinary freshets the- water
backs up to where tho banks are low
nlonjr tho flats and overflows.
Mr, Chaso Is preparing tho papers 'in
a number of the other suits which arc
to be brought.
WATER WAS SHUT OFF.
Dickson City Water Company Made
Good It's Notice to the Bor
oughCitizen's to Meet.
The Dickson City Water company
yesterday shut off the water from the
borough building and all of tho hy
diauts of Dickson City borough for the
reafaon that It has paid nothing for
water during the last two years. In
surance companies carrying Insurance
In that borough threaten to Increase
the rates or cancel the Insutanee en
tirely. A meeting of the citizens will be held
at 7.S0 tonight In tho borough building
to take some action regarding the de
plorable situation In which the borough
finds Itself and which Isithe outgrowth
of the fight for the contest of the
borough ofllrers which has been going
on for months. The company served
notice three weeks ago that the water
would be shut off unless the bill was
paid. A meeting of the borough coun
cil was called for last Friday night to
consider the situation but the Me
Gairlty faction all lomalned away
their leader declaring that the com
pany was bluffing.
The company has cut off the pipes
leading to the hydrants and put tn a
gate so that when the borough makes
fits peace with tho company it will
have to spend about $300 In connecting
up the hydrants again.
The water company officials declare
that they have not received a cent from
the borough In two years. Orders were
given from time to time but the bor
ough would not pay them, averlng It
had no monej-. Now tho borough ad
mits it has tho money but it still re
fuses 'to honor tho ordeis. The com
pany gave three week's notice of its
determination to shut off the water
unless the bills were paid.

Coet llJtk to the Office of City Superlnlendont
Alter an Absence of 0cr M"C Yenis.
Professor George W. Phillips last
night was elected city supeilntendent
of. schoolH defeating Professor George
Howell. The vote was as follows:
PHILLIPS W. B. Christmas, H.
J. O'Mnlley, A. B. Eynon, M. J.
Murphy, W. J. Welsh, W. J. Hand,
Otto Robinson, Anthony Walsh, T.
J. Jennings, O. B. Schriefer, F. S.
Barker, P. J. Langan, P. J. Reif,
John Gibbons, E. J. Leonard 15.
HOWELL A. L. Francois, J. H.
Phillips, D. J. Roche, Dr. John
O'Malley, B. T. Jayne, Elias Evans
6.
The new superintendent resigned
the olflce of city superintendent in Oc
tober, ISO.", and Professor Howell was
chosen as his successor. Subsequently
he was principal of the high school for
a time tindat present is connected with
the Pennsylvania Casualty company.
He will assume the duties of city
superintendent thirty days hence.
After the meeting was called to order
by President Gibbons, W. J. Hand, tho
new member from the Tenth ward was
formally Introduced to the members,
ho having subset Ibed to the oath of
ofllce before Secretary 13. D. Fellows
In the morning.
The bontd at once proceeded to the
election of a superintendent. W. J.
Welsh presented the name of Prof.
Phillips who he said had been tried
in the office and found efficient. The
board would make no mistake In select
ing him. The nomination was sec
onded by T. J. Jennings who paid a
tilbute to Piofessor Phillips worth as
an educator.
Ellas Evans presented the name of
Professor Howell who he said had
served the district faithfully for six
years. He thought it was not good
business or good sense to remove a
man who has brought our schools to a
standard surpassed by no schools in
the state. Dr. John O'Malley seconded
the nomination. He too was opposed
to the Idea of removing a man who
was doing good work. A vote was
taken and resulted as above noted.
P. J. Langan moved that the salary
be Increased from $3,000 to $3,300 a year.
This was vigorously opposed by ' Mr.
Jayne who said the duties of a super
intendent do not warrant such a salary
until such time as the teachers lecelve
salaries more In accordance with the
woik performed. He said It has been
tho tendency to Increase the salaries of
oflleeis and certain favorites in the
high school and overlook the teachers
who perform the bulk of the work.
Mr. Langan defended tho Justice of his
motion and Mr. Jennings added the
weight of his argument to tho propos
tlon to Inciease tho salary. He said
If tho work of city superintendent is
properly performed even $3,500 Is not
enough. Ho said it is a question of
mathematics If the district is not pay
ing more than that now to Its supeiln
tendent. Elias Evans moved that tho motion
be amended to make the salary $3,000
but It was defeated by the following
vote:
I'oi C'liiMmiH, l'l.ineois, Pjiion, Phillip",
Umlic, Jli. D'ilallej-, .Taj iip, i:nns-S.
AKalnst II. J. O'JUIIey. .Murphy, Welsh,
Hind, llobln-on, WaKh, JrnnlnirM, Silueifer, Hat
kcr, Uiikju, licit, Gibbons, Leoiuid 13.
The original motion was then put
nnd carried. The chair announced
Mr. Hnnd will serve on all the com
mittees to which his predecessor was
appointed and tho board then adjourn
ed to attend a banquet in the Scranton
house In honor of the election of
Professor Phillips.

NEAR A SETTLEMENT
Contractors and C. L. U. Committea
Agree on All Points but One in
Effort to End Long ritvtke.
At a conference held last nlgHt be
tween a committee from the Central
Labor union and representatives from
tlio several contractors comprising the
Builders' Exchange, nil points nt issue
between the carpenters and the con
trators, which brought on tho strike
which began thiue years ago and has
continued ever since, were settled, with
one exception.
Tho contractors agreed to an eight
hour day nnd to the wage scale vpre
sonled by the committee, tho full de
tails of which scale will not be given
out for tho present. Tho carpenters
want the new terms to go Into effect at
once, while tho contractors want them
to go Into effect somo months hence.
It was on this point that both sides
deadlocked. It was finally decided, af
ter the conference had continued until
past midiilght, to have nnother meet
ing on Fiiday night. It seems to be
the concensus of opinion on both sides
that a settlement will be then effected,

THE DEAN-WINT0N SUIT.
It Is Probable That It Will Consume
the Remainder' of the Week.
Orphans' Court Matters.
Tho equity suit of Dean against
Wlnton promises now to continue all
week and possibly longer. All of yes
terday was spent In the presentation
of vouchers by which the plaintiff
seeks to show the amount of money
paid by the Delaware, Lackawanna &
Western company for coal taken from
tho Griffin tract. More than 500 vouch
ers wore presented.
Tlio testimony In the case Is being
transcribed as fast as taken, on sten
ographer taking the notes and tho
other doing the typewriting. Tho
Coston's are able to do this because
each can read the other's notes quite as
readily as ho can his own.

KNEISEL QUARTETTE.
It Will Bo Heard at the Bicycle Club
Tomorrow Night.
The celebrated Kneisel Quartette will
pay tho first visit to Scranton tomoi
row night, when a beautiful programme
will be given a programme Mich its
piobably has never been heard In this
vicinity. There is almost no music like
ti string quartette, nothing ho wildly,
exquisitely sweet. Tho itiur men who
will make this wonderful music have
played In every great city of two con
tinents and they stand pre-eminent In
chamber music wherever superb artists
are recognized. Such) a privilege is ono
to bo appreciated, and doubtless tho
Hlcyclo club will bo thronged to hear
the Knelsels.
Few people will confess to feeling no
Interest In tho Free Kindergarten work
In this city. Nowhere was Its influ
ence mora needed and In no placo have
the results been more significant. The
debt Incurred by the association Is ono
which should be gladly met by the
public, for tho poor llttlo wnlfs of tho
city nnd its suburbs have been tho
beneficiaries.
