The News of
FOREMAN KILLEEN
TAKES AN INNING
He Resents What He Claims Were
Imputations of His Honesty by
President Davis, of Select Council.
Addressed Common Council Other
Business.
The, discussion stirred up by tlie sen
sational resignation of City Engineer
r. E. Kupp threatens to be Intermin
able. Last night there was another echo,
niid a noisy one. Street Foreman John
Kllleen had his Inning. ' Up went after
Chntrmnn Davis, of select council, for
certain strictures on him, made by Mr.
Davis at Saturday night's meeting of
select, council. Mr. Kllleen got permis
sion to address common council at Its
meeting Inst night, and proceeded to
resent Mr. Davis' statements.
Mr. Kllleen declared that his rela-,
tlons and all his transactions with City
Engineer Kupp were honest, nnd he In
vited council's Inspection and Investi
gation of his career. If he was not en
titled to the Increase of llfty cents per
flay, he didn't know; but he supposed
Air. Kupp was acting according to his
-duty and his rights. Mr. Klllen said
that after the raise of salary, In the
spring, Mr. Davis was among the first
to Inform hlni that his wages had been
Increased. "From what Mr. Davis
"said," continued Mr. Kllleen, "It would
;3ooU as If I was In cahoots with Mr.
Kupp, which Isn't true, as all our
transactions are as honest as could be."
. Mr. Kllleon further resented the sug
gestion of lr. Davis about the luun
'licr of hours he worked, and claimed
;that ho was out all hours of the night
'at times, for which he never got a cent
extra compensation. "I have been
working for the city," said he, "when
Mr. Davis and others were In their
beds." lie cited the work on the
Eroklyn street bridge as an example.
Then he was out at 3 In the morning.
Chairman Mnsters. at this point,
could see no reason for Mr. Kllleen
'continuing, nnd rapping the table with
a vigorous swing, declared Mr. Kllleen
out of order: advising him to go be
foro select council, where Mr. Davis
made these statements.
Mr. Davis was present and wanted to
nnswor Mr. Kllleen, but Chairman
Masters, refusing to allow any further
'exchange of personalities, brought his
gavel down once more, with: "You're
out of order, Mr. Davis." Thereupon,
'Mr. Davis did as the man, who sings,
orders. He went back to sit down.
There was a delegation of Italian
residents of Villa street present with a
remonstrance against the proposed
sewer on that street. They do not be
lieve it necessary nnd are not in cir
cumstances to meet the assessments.
As some of the names also appeared
on the petition for the sewer, the re
monstrance was referred to committee
with instructions to report at the next
. meeting.
A request was read from the "Mer
chants' association asking that the
dally test of the fire alarm system be
made dally, as the practice some time
vngo, by sending in nn alarm from a
different box each day. The communi
cation was received.
A resolution by Mr. Masters was
, adopted, directing the payment of In
stalments on Main, Eighth avenue,
Hiver streets and Sixth avenue pave
ments. The concurrent business from select
was all concurred In.

Miss Ilona Daley were .shocked yester

Caused sudden but not unexpected

CECIL SMITH'S EXPERIENCE.
Thrilling- Time with Horse Painful
ly Injured.
Cecil, the 7-yeur-old son of Mr. nnd
Mrs. Claude Smith, of this city, was
injured yesterday afternoon at Crystal
lake, by the overturning of a surrey.
He sustained several bruises on his
body, but no bones were broken.
The lad, with his mother, her sister,
Miss Andrews, Miss Lucy Joslln and
the hitter's guest, Mrs. Hnll, of Phila
delphia, comprised p merry party at
the lake, to spend the day there. The
party was preparing to leave the lake
for home, and in turning the horse
around, the animal became nervous and
backed the vehicle over a small Incline,
causing It to overturn. The occupants
were thrown lo tlio ground, but all es
caped Injuries with the exception of
Cecil, who was caught by the roar end
of the wagon when Its side struck.
Milkman 'Stone was in the vicinity,
and assisted the party In righting the
surrey and returning to this city.
Immediately upon reaching home Dr.
D. S. Bailey was called and attended to
the lad's injuries,

ONE NOTCH IN STICK.
Honesdale Team Wins from Jermyn,
Through. Several Misplnys.
The canal boat aggregation from tho
other side of the huckleberry moun
tain cut a large notch In their stick for
the week, not due to tiny ubundance of
ability as base balllsts, but rather
through good luck and errors made by
the opposing team.
A large crowd from this city attend
ed the game and, choosing the lesser
of the two evils, decided to root for
the Jermyn players, and again we
weep. l
Our Owney was in the box for the
home team, nnd among other credit
able things he struck out McDonald, of
Archbald, and Billy Miller. Only In one
inning did the Mnple city lads connect
with any degree of "muchness." Mil
ler, the white colored man, the pluyer
behind the, ball, performed very well
and had the swnt artists bending In
all styles for his floaters and speedy'
ones.
It was not a good game. What spec
tacular playing was seen was offset' by
the many mlsplays. Flannery, Roesler,
MeAndrew and Murray, of the Pets,
played with the losing team, but did
not contribute to the loss of the game.
In the ninth Inning Flannery lost a
chance to score by being caught ut
second base on Miller's excellent fielding-
of a wild throw. It was a risk nnd
he lost, hut the play was one that any
good runner would have made.
The game was not one whit one
sided. Each team had a chance to win
and had victory in its grasp several
times, but It slipped through every
time but once, and then Honesdalo
broke shoe strings holding on to it.
Iate last night common council, while
in session, received a message from
their Jermyn brethren, requesting the
loan of the city and its suburbs, as
Jermyn was not large enough to hold
the swelled head youths from the Dela
ware and Hudson branch roadside.
The request was refused, as the solons
do not care to have a thin limb plague
on the new board of health's hands.
Miller was hit for ten safe ones, and
MeAndrew for eleven. Miller struck
out nine men; MeAndrew, rtve.
I
Honesdale on Duffy's Field.
With a magnanimity and generosity
characteristic of Carbondallans, Man
ager Tappan, of the Crescents, has
granted the use of Duffy's field the
Pets' training ground to the Mayfleld
and Honesdale teams for the game to
be played tomorrow afternoon. When
one observes a broad-minded action of
this kind, he cannot help but compare
It with the smallness of Honesdallans
In refusing to play the Crescents either
on the Honesdale grounds or In this
city. Let us hope, however, that kind
ness of this character will bring tho
contracted Honesdallans to a sense of
their obligations to us, even though
this hope be a desperate one.
jManager Sam Mendelsohn has lined
up a strong teuin to meet Billy Miller's
crowd, and it goes without saying that
hundreds of the Crescents' rooters will
be- on hand to smile encouragement to
good-natured Sam and his men. The
game will commence at 2.30 o'clock
sharp.
This afternoon the Archbald team
will meet the Honesdale team In the
White Oak borough, and will likely
give the latter another spanking.
Burke, formerly with tho New York
Giants, lately of Atlantic City, will
pitch for Honesdale, A few Carbondal
lans, more or less, will go to Archbald
to see the game.
