Mr. Gorman entered Into an agreement
with Miller by which tho latter agieed
to erect a building in the rear to be
used by Gorman & Co. as a livery
stable, the agreement being that the
floor of the second story, where It was
proposed to keep hoises, should be
water-tight.
It Is alleged that the floor was not
water-tight and that c.nrlages kept nn
the first floor were badly damaged.
Suit is brought to recover the loss sus
tained by reason of the alleged failure
of Miller to carry out his contract.
. After a considerable portion of the
evidence was In, Judge Dunham sug
gested that the action was not of the
right kind. Instead of trespass, he said
It should be assumpsit for breach of
contract. The pleadings weie accord
ingly amended and the case pioceeded.

TOURISTS IN THE CITY.
They Are from New England States
and Maritime Provinces.
A party of thirty-live tourists arrived
In this city last night. They are Odd
Fellows and their wives and daughters
from the New Knglnnd states und the
maritime provinces, who are on their
wny home from Des Moines, Iowa,
where they attended the sessions of the
Sovereign Grand lodge of Odd Fellows
which were held there.
Monday night the party spent at
Watklns glen and reached this city yes
terday ufternoon and registered at the
Jerniyn. Last night they went to the
Dixie theatre, escorted by a number of
local Odd Fellows. The visitors will
leave for Glen Summit today and will
remain there tonight. They will reach
men- nomes Friday.
CROWDED CONDITION
OP PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Teachers' Committee of the Board of
Control Will Begin nn Investiga
tion of Matter Today.
A SALOON BURGLARIZED.
William Walter's Place, on Linden
Street, Entered.
William Walter's saloon, on Linden
street, adjoining the Star theater, was
entered by burglars -early yesterday
morning and money and goods to tho
value of $30 were taken.
The thieves first entered the shoe
shop, which adjoins the Star theater
on the west, and crawled through un
der (he sidewalk to the basement of
Walter's place. They broke In the door
at the head of the stairs leading to the
saloon, and rilled the cigar case. Sev
eral boxes of cigars were taken, as
well as a number of bottles of whiskey
and some change, which was In the
cash register. The matter has been
reported to the police, but there seems
to be no clue.
TO STOP WORK AT PARKS.
Gang of Prisoners Will Be Taken Off
Next Week.
Director of Public Works Boche said
yesterday that work at Connell park
will be stopped tomorrow until next
spring. The gang of prisoners who
have been working there will bo trans
ferred to Nay Aug park, where they
will remain until next week, when
work there will be stopped also.
"It was most unfortunate." said
Director Roche yesterday, "that we
couldn't have that $25,000 provided In
the bond Issue to use this year, but I
think that splendid results have been
accomplished, considering the small
amount of money we did have."
The teacher's committee of the board
of control will make a. tour of the
schools throughout the city today for
the purpose of investigating the over
crowding of a number of the buildings
because of the strike. Ways and means
for relieving this over-crowded condi
tion will be considered before the next
meeting of the board.
Though no exact figures will be avail
able before the end of the nresent
month it Is estimated that the increased
attendance at the schools is at least
3,000 and some are Inclined to think
that it Is much higher. In some schools
In North Scranton and West Scranton
there are as many as seventy pupils in
some rooms where there are proper ac
commodations for only forty-eight.
The controllers differ us to the best
methods of meeting this question.
Some favor the Immediate renting of
annexes and the engagement of as many
extra teachers as will be necessary In
order to give each Instructor only the
aveiage number of pupils. President
Gibbons Is Inclined to the belief that
as the condition can only have a. tem
porary existence the best plan will be
to insist upon the children attending
the schools which are not crowded even
If it should necessitate their walking
a little bit farther. The objection raised
to this plan Is that it would mean the
destruction of the boundary lines of
each school.
A number of other controllers favor
the immediate establishment of night
schools for those children who work
under ordinary circumstances and who
are only attending school now because
there Is a strike. It Is pointed out that
the presence of these children In the
rooms with the regular scholars has a
tendency towards demoralization.
"It Is certainly not conducive to dis
cipline," said Controller Jennings at
Monday night's meeting, "to put a
fourteen year old boy who has never
been to school before in a room with
little children of six and seven year of
age."
The night schools open ordinarily the
first week In November and It is point
ed out that they might just as -well be
opened a month earlier. All these mat
ters will be threshed out by the com
mittee before the week Is over.

sooner than was anticipated. An early

On account of the Blakely borough
council not paying the Scranton Gas
and Water company tho rental of six
teen fire hydrants when the rent be
came duo, the Scranton Gas and Water
company yesterday had a large force of
men ut work in the borough, and tho
entire sixteen fire hyrnnts were dug up
so that Blakely borough is now In a de
plorable condition In case of a fire.
The water company oflloluls stated
yesterday that If the borough again
wished to have fire protection they
would have to Ilrst purchase tho hy
dunts nnd pay a lump sum for the
water per year to supply them. Tho
council bus been slow in acting upon
tho matter und tho water company has
taken this method to bring about a set
tlement. Meanwhile Blakely borough
Is ut the mercy of the Humes, should a
lire break out.
The citizens nre up In arms over the
matter nnd unless council takes quick
action lliey will call a mass meeting
to take preliminary action upon the
matter. Peckvllle had one experience of
a huge conflagration which is still fresh
In their minds.

Committee to Look Into Its Disap
pearance This Week.
A number of the members of the
school board, notably President Gib
bons, are determined to sift to the bot
tom the disappearance of tho old horse
used for hauling supplies to the several,
schools and tho purchase for $250 of u
new horse to take Its place.
There Is no record showing what be
came of the old animal, nnd though the
board authorized the payment, of the
bill, the purchase of the horse was
never authorized. The supply com
mittee, which has boon directed to
make an Investigation, will meet some
night this week to consider the mat
ter.
