LIVE WIBES CAUSE TROUBLE.
Exciting Times in a Peckvillo Hose
House.
About S o'clock last evening the bor-
bugh electric light wire In Peckvllle
became crossed with the fire nlanii
wires, and at the Wilson hose house,
Permanent Man Samuel Hiu-.on was
surprised to hear the relays emitting a
hum like tho bussss of a trolley ear
motor. He called the driver, Gerry
Brown, who started In to Investigate.
.To get to tho relays a step-ladder lias
to be used. When' Brown climbed tho
ladder and opened the box where the
relay is kept, ho received an electrical
shock that threw him from the ladder,
but did not injure him. Tho electric
fluid set fire to the woodwork and at
tho samo time lire was discovered Ig
niting the woodwork at another relay
box in the permanent men's sleeping
room.
Tho telephone was resorted to to call
tip tho electric light plant, but it could
not bo reached for over twenty
minutes, when tho current was shut
off. Meanwhile tho firemen attached a
garden hose and played upon tho
woodwork about tho relays, thus sav
ing the building. The lire ulurm runs
into several of the llremen's homes, and
they all had a similar experience to
that at tho hose house. Tho lire alarm
,wlll be crippled until new reluys are
purchased,

MADE MOULDS
WHILE IN JAIL
JAMES SHOCK PREPARED TO
CAST NICKELS.
Received His Instructions in tho Art
While Serving a Sentence in tho
Eastern Penitentiary His Brothor-in-Law,
William Fennell, Fearing
Arrest, Jumped Over a 40-Foot
Wall Into the Roaring Brook An
other Man Frightened as a Result
of the Circumstances.
One of the strangest counterfeiting
cases Imaginable was brought to light
In this city last night, through tho ar
rest of James Brock, who has already
spent most of the past ten years in the
.Eastern penitentiary and tho county
jail.
Tho odd thing about the case Is that
Brock first received Instructions In "the
art or making money" while Incarcer
ated In the penitentiary at Philadel
phia, and successfully carried out his
Instructions while serving a sentence In
the Lackawanna county jail.
Brock, It will be remembered, was
twice sent to the Kastern penitentiary
for terms of throe years each, for at
tempting criminal assaults on little
girls, and, he says, while there," he was
taught by other prisoners how to make
moulds for casting counterfeit money.
The prison authorities are now engaged
In Investigating this alleged system of
Instruction.
MADE MOULDS IX JAIL.
Shortly after his release from the
"pen," Brock was arrested In this city
on the charge of larceny, and sentenced
to ton months' Imprisonment In tho
county jail. During his term there,
some plumbing work was done In tho
jail, and Brock obtained some metal
pipe and plaster of Paris, which he
turned Into moulds for making nickels
and dimes.
On September 11, Brock was released
from the county jail, after serving his
sentence out, and knowledge of Brock's
doings coming to the attention of the
jail authorities, Warden McAndrew re
ported the matter to United States
Commissioner George D. Taylor, who
Issued a warrant for Brock's arrest on
tho charge of counterfeiting.
As far as can be learned. Brock did
not turn out any counterfeit nickels or
dimes. The warrant was placed In the
hands of Deputy Marshal J. W. Snyder,
who, with Secret Service Agent M. F.
Grlllln, of Philadelphia, and Detective
Robert Delter, of this city, located
Brock last night in South Scranton.
The government officials had been
looking for Brock for some time and
yesterday learned he was at work In
the Oxford mine. Last night they vis
ited the home of his sister, Mrs. Will
iam Fennell, In the rear of 316 Cedar
avenue, where ho was placed under ar
rest. FENNELL MADE A DASH.
Just as tho officers entered the house,
Fennell, believing they were after him,
darted out the back door and down
through the yard, and over the retain
ing wall, alongside of the Mattes street
bridge, and into the Roaring Brook, a
dlstftnee of thirty-five or forty feet
below.
Grlflin and Delter gave chase, the for
mer tearing a part of Fennell's cloth
ing in his attempt to catch him, and
tho latter firing at him with his re
volver. Tho fleeing form was soon last
in tho darkness, but Delter was of the
opinion that he saw Fennell cross the
brook and go up the bank on the other
side.
The detectives made a diligent search
up and down tho hank of the brook, but
failed to find any trace of Fennell, and
up to a late hour nothing was known of
his whereabouts. While the officers
were making the search they encount
ered a man looking for his son, who
had threatened to commit suicide by
Jumping into the water.
SEARCHING FOR SON.
The searchers told the somewhat dis
tracted man Unit some one had jumped
Into tho water, and without waiting to
learn that It was Fennell, he started
off on a wild run for his home. Tho
police and a number of others searched
until a late hour for both victims, but
were unsuccessful In their search.
Brock was taken to the city police
headquarters and locked up for the
night, and will be given n preliminary
hearing this morning before Commis
sioner Taylor and sent to Jail to await
a further hearing next week.
ADDITION NEARLY COMPLETED.
Tho New Building at Second Church
Will Soon Be Ready.
The new addition to tho Second Pres-
bytorlun church, which Is being erected
by Mr. and Mrs. 15. L. Fuller, Is Hear
ing completion, and Conrad Schroeder,
the contractor, gives assurance that It
will be ready for occupancy In about a
month.
The building was designed by Archi
tect Robert W. Snyder, and Is being
erected on the southwest corner of tho
church. It is about 35x45 feet in slzo
and Is two stories high, being con
structed of stone to match that used In
tho church, it will contuln but two
rooms, one on each lloor. The room on
the llrst lloor will be ued for the pri
mary department of the Sunday school,
thus relieving the overcrowded condi
tion of the present Sunday school
rooms.
The second floor or tho new building
will bo fitted up as ii hull and will bo
used ns u meeting room for the Wom
en's Missionary society and the Ladles'
Aid society, Tho cost of the building,
which will bo heated by stcum and

Last Link to Be Built.
"A charter has been granted .at Har-
rlsburg to the Hazleton, Weatherly ancUoplnlon yesterday to the special Joint
Mauch Chunk Traction company, iJBcommlttee of councils appointed to con-
whlch local capitalists are Interested,"
says yesterday's Wllkes-Barre Record.
"Tho charter Itself was delivered here
by noon yesterday and Is In the' hands
of President Frank W. Larned, who Is
one of the promoters of the new road.
"From the charter it Is learned that
the road is to commence on Broad
street, Hazleton, just in front of the
Central hotel, and run down Broad
street to the Susquehanna turnpike and
then to Beaver Meadow, a distance of
four miles; from the latter place over
a public road, constructed upon the old
Beaver Meadow plane, to Weatherly,
another distance of four miles, and
from Weatherly over tho Lehigh and
Susquehanna turnpike to Nesquehon
Ing, where It is to join the Mnuch
Chunk Traction company, another dis
tance of seven miles, the total length of
the road to be fifteen miles.
"Tho projectors of the road say that
It now looks possible to travel, In a few
months, on connecting electric street
car lines from Mauch Chunk to Phila
delphia and within the next three
months to ride from Wllkes-Barre to
Hazleton by trolley line, so that the
Hazleton, Weatherly and Mauch Chunk
Traction company will constitute the
link In a system of trolley lines from
Forest City, Susquehanna county, to
Philadelphia, a distance of 188 miles.
"This newly chartered company has
the absolute right over the public roads
between Hazleton and Mauch Crunk,
offering tho most feasible rcato to these
points. The charter also covers the
right to use the shortest route from
Hazleton to Nesquehonlng.
"The new company is capitalized at
$100,000. The oflicers are: Frank W.
Larned, of Wllkes-Barre, president;
Elmer Warner and Lawrence Tnrleton,
of Weatherly; M. J. Stauffer, of Beaver
Meadow; Frank W. Larned, J. K. Welt
zenkorn, A. II. Bloom and Christian
Walter, of Wllkes-Barre, as directors.
The work of putting tho road In run
ning order will bo commenced with as
little delay as possible."
WILL BE A BALANCE.
Only Half of Street Cleaning Appro
priation Exhausted.
It Is very probable that there will be
a balance left in the appropriation made
this year for the cleaning of asphalt
pave, regardless of the fact that tho
pave has been kept cleaner this past
summer than ever before.
The appropriation was $20,000, and of
this amount considerably less than half
has been already expended, leaving over
$10,000 with which to continue the work
for the remaining six months, during
one-half of which no attempt Is made
to do any cleaning at all.

CAN'T COMPEL THE
- ISSUE OF TRANSFERS
City Solicitor Watson's Opinion on
Bellevue-South Side Question.
No Action by Committee.
city Solicitor G. M. Watson sent an
slder the resolution directing the Scran
ton Railway company to Issue transfers
from the Bellevuc line to the South
Side line nnd from the South Side line
to the Bellovue. In this opinion tho
solicitor decides that the city cannot
compel the issuance of transfers from
these lines. Ho says:
An examination of the charters under
which these lines of railroad were built
and under which they nro now operated
and of the ordinances granting them the
privilege to uso the streets of tho city
as they nro today used by the said rail
way company forces me to conclude that
the city of Scranton cannot legally com
pel tho Scranton Railway company to
Issue transfers from the lino known ns
the lle'ilovue line' to the South Side line,
neither can it compel the South 'Side lino
to Issue transfers to the Belli'vue line.
I am sure the city would have no legal
standing in nn attempt tn compel tho
company to Ishuc transfers, particularly
on these two lines of cais.
, Only three members of the commit
dfj1 or one less than a quorum met yes
terday afternoon, and so no definite ac
tion on the resolution was taken. A
report will be framed, however, before
next Thursday night's meeting of select
council.
The Bellevue line is operated under
a franchise granted to the Valley Pas
senger Railway company and tho South
Side line under a franchise obtained
by the Scranton Passenger Railway
company.
Tho latter franchise contains no
transfer provision but the Valley Pas
senger Railway franchise contains a
clause reading "transfers shall be Is
sued by the company to all connecting
lines." It Is explained thut the South
Side lino is not In reality a connect
ing line of tho ncllevuc line, because
the cars operating on the latter road
run over the tracks of tho People's
company on Lackawanna avenue wheic
connection is made.
Tho objection which has been raised
by tho ofllcials of the Scranton Railway
company to the issuing of transfers on
the lines in question is that the ter
minal points of both lines In Bellovue
and South Scranton ure so close to
gether that it would be possible for a
pashcnger to ride from a given point to
the central city and back to within two
blocks of his starting point for one
fare.

Lewis Bates continues to surprise
everyone with his rapid strides In The
Tribune's Educational Contest. Yes
terday he scored twelve points and ad
vanced five places among tho leaders
and now occupies twenty-second place.
Mr. Bates only entered the contest on
Thursday, Sept. 18, and In the past
eight days has advanced almost daily
until he has not only gained a com
manding position in the main table, but
Is in eleventh place among the leaders
for the special honor prizes for Sep
tember. He will probably be unable
to make such o large jump again, but
every score of twelve points Is sure to
make a change In his standing unless
some of tho others just above are more
active.
The points scored yesterday were:
Lewis Bates 1:2
William T. S. Rodriguez... 6
Herbert Thompson !
A. J. Kellerman 2
A. J. Thayer 1
Mr. Thayer's one point ties him with
Harry Danveis for thirty-third place.
There were no other changes In the
main table, but the race for llrst prize
among the September leaders is be
coming very interesting. Only six points
separate tho llrst three nnd at one
time yesterday Mr. Kellerman and Mr.
Thompson were tied for first place. The
next thiee days will decide who are to
receive the four prizes.
There are only a few days left In
which new contestants may enter and
score points In The Tribune's Contest,
There are four full weeks yet In which
to work and there are still great pos
sibilities within the reach of those who
really desire an education. What Mr.
Bates has done In eight days surely
any energetic young man or woman
can do in four weeks, and Mr. Bates
is practically certain of securing a
scholarship now, but will probably not
be satisfied until ho Is higher up, where
he will have a better choice.

ORDINANCES HAVEN'T PASSED.
And So Contemplated Plans Can't Be
Carried Out.
Director of Publjc WorltB Roche had
n number of plans In contemplation nt
the beginning of the present fiscal" yenr
nnd secured appropriations for the
carrying out of these Ideas In the nen-
eral npproprlaUon ordlnnnc'e. The plans
nave noi ocen carried out, because of
the failure of councils to pass tho nec
essary ordinances providing for the ex
penditure of the money already appro
priated. An Item of $2,000 was Included In tho
appropriation ordinance for the pur
chase of street signs to mark tho Inter
sections of the principal streets In tho
city. Later nn ordinance providing ror
entering Into it contract for tho supply
of these signs wns Introduced, bill It Is
slumbering In councils still and tho
money romnlns unused.
An appropriation of JS50 was made
for tho lighting of Nay Aug park, but
the second ordinance has never passed
councils. Neither have the ordinances
providing for tho purchase of a street
sweeper nnd a one-horse sprinkler,
though appropriations for these were
made In tho appropriation ordinance.
Another Important ordlnnnco which
was Introduced some four months ago,
but which has never been up for pass
age, Is tho measure establishing rules
and regulations for the government of
the several parks. A similar ordinance
was Introduced last year, but never
passed.
The rearon ndvnnced for the failure
of these ordinances to pass Is Indiffer
ence on tho part of tho councllmcn,
rather thnn any particular objection on
their part to the expenditure of tho
money Involved. Director Roche has
decided not to make any especial effort
to have the ordinances passed, leaving
the matter entirely In tho hands of the
councllmcn nnd depending on their
civic pride to do the right thing In the
end.
