Municipal Association Agent Addis Con
tinues His Statements of Fraud.
CONTRACTS FOR STREET CLEANING
The Committee Will Probably nold But
Three Sessions a Week in the City
Hall Building Much Interest
Manifested.
Philadelphia, Nov. 13. The second
dny's session of tho Bonnto investigating
conynittco was held yesterdny nt tho Hotel
Mfitropolo, with tho samo mombors pres
ent as on Monday. Tho ontlro sosslon was
taken up with tho examination of General
Agent Addis, of tho Citizens' Municipal
association. Tho testimony given related
to the contracts for street cleaning, collec
tion of gnruaga nnd strcot paving, and
also the non-compliance with specifica
tions by contractors and non-enforccmont
by tho authorities. Lawyer Frosdley con
ducted tho examination.
Agent Addis said that tho contracts for
street cleaning woro generally violated,
and referred to tho collection of ashes by
saying that tho carts, dosplto tho regula
tions requiring tight lids, had none at all.
As to garbago ho said tho general com
plaint was that It was not incinorated as
required by ordlnnnco of councils.
Kcferriug to street paving, ho said that
councils' ordinance of April, 1893, required
that closo fitting blocks should bo used.
This, ho said, was not dono. During 1893,
ho said, tho property owners paid $140,000
moro than thoy should havo paid, as fitted
instead of irregular blocks Bhould have
been used.
Tho committee then ndjourned until to
day, whon Mr. Addis' examination was
renewed.
It was announced around tho lobbies of
tho hotel that tho committee had deter
mined to havo but three sessions a week
on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
It was also stated that tho quarter sessions
room in tho city hall had been secured for
future meetings through tho good offices
of District Attorney Graham.
He Lived a Double Life.
CniCAGO, Nov. 13. Tho friends of the
Into Curtis B. Hobinson, formerly a promi
nent real ostuto doalor of this city, nnd
who died in 1893, leaving' an cstato worth
$1,000,000, wcro amazed to learn yesterday
that ho Is charged with having deserted n
wife iu Massachusetts, In tb early sixties,
when ho camo to Chicago, and his throe
ohildron are probably surprised to find
their right to inhoritanco challenged by
Massachusetts rolutlves. At tho time of
his death Robinson lived with his threo
children, Mrs. Martha J. Ruprecht, Curtis
IS. Robinson, Jr., and Besslo D. Robinson
After bis death his daughter, Mrs. Ru
prccht, was niado administratis of his
estate Tho Massachusetts relatives
brother, slstor and children of a dead
sister claim that his children here are Il
legitimate, and that they aro tho legal
heirs, Robinson's legal wlfo having died
childless, Thoy also olaim that he never
married his Chicago wife.
Mahcr Challenges the World.
New York, Nov. 18. J. J. Qulnn, the
manager of Poter Mahor, who knocked
out O'Donnell so roadlly Monday night,
makes this statomcnt in behalf of tho
flghtor: "Mahcr challenges any man In
the world to fight for tho championship,
nnd ho will not put the stakes so high that
no ono oxcept a man with threo million
aires bohind him can accept. Mahcr will
fight for $5,000 a side, in public or private,
and ho will go any place to do battlo,
South Africa not barred. Ho is particu
larly anxious to meet Fitzslmmons."
Qulnn said that Mahcr would not chal
lenge Corbett, becauso Corbett had asked
him as a personal favor not to do so, as he
(Corbett) had rotircd.

cUriiient Tli In Morning.
At Ueveii o'clock this morning tho fire de
partment was called to the new building at
tho corner of Main and Laurel streets, oc
cupied by Cicorge Karllski, a saloonkeeper,
Tho building Is a threo-story framo structure
which would have fallen an cany victim to
flame -had not the firemen responded
promptly and worked vigorously when thoy
reaohed the sceno. The neiglilHirhood is
thkkly built up with frame buildings and a
bad place for a fire to get hold. Fortunately
tho lUtnes did not got much headway and
tho firemen succeeded in extinguishing them
with a liberal use of water. The building
was flooded from top to bottom and it will
toko wont jaoo to repair the damage. Tin
lire WR caused by a misfitting and badly
worn elbow of a stovo pipe In a room on tho
first flejor and the pipe is held for inspection
by thofborougU authorities.
Somt of tho escapes made from the bund
ing wee of a thrilling character which was
uncalldl for by tho oxtont of tho fire. One
woman .partly dressedjumped from thesecond
story Of the building. She escaped injury.
Another, similarly attired crawled out of a
window on tho samo floor and after holding
on to tho hill with one hand for a few
moments dropped into the arms of some
men who were in watting. The proprietor
of tho place rushed out of the main entmnco
of tho saloon with a demijohn under ono arm
and a number of bottles under tho other arm,
and shouting "Fire !" with all tho force his
robust lung3 would allow. As Karliski stood
watching the firemen at work ho complained
of many recent misfortunes. Ills wife,
deserted him lait week.

A Sequel lo a Raid the Police Made at
a Wedding.
THE MATTER WILL GO TO COURT.
Six Men Charge Chitf Burgess Burns and
Chief of Police Toh With False
Arrest and Imprisonment, Extor
tion and Misdemeanor in Olllco.
Chief Burgess Burns and Chief of Police
Tosh woro hist night made defendants in six
suits brought against them by six Lithu
anians whom they arrosted and fined about
threo weeks ago at a wedding on charge of
creating disturbances of tho place. Tho
prosecutors aro George Zdancus, George
Itaytkicwicz, John Queddcr, Joseph Aku
laucks, Martin Zdaucus aud Joseph Iiayt
kiewlcz. Each of tho men havo instituted a
suit against the two officers, charging falso
arrest and imprisonment, extortion ami mis
demeanor in oltlce.
The warrants were wwom out before Jus
tice lllerstcin after the prosecutors had con
sulted with Congressman Charles N. Brunim,
whom they have engaged as counxel to push
tho rases to trial at court.
Tho specific charge by flvo of the com
plainants Is that on thenlghtof OctoberSOth,
last, they attended a wedding on East Lloyd
street and were enjoying themselves without
disturbance to the neighborhood when the
Chief of Police and a squad of polic6, ac
companied by a squad of boys who marched
down tho street yelling and whistling, en
tered tho houso and arrested tho eomplaiu
nnts, who were tuken to tho lockup. They
wero subsequently released upon paying $"
each. It is also alleged that permission to
hold tho wedding had buen granted by tho
Chief Burgess.
One of the prosecutors, Joseph Raytkic-
wicz, bases his caso on other facts, lie says
ho, went to tho t'ouucil chamber to pay the
flno and secure tho reloaso of his brother,
who was one of tho men arrested at tho
wedding, but was himself arrested and kept
in tho lockup until ho paid a fine and costs.
He says his arrest was mado without cause
or provocation.
When before Justice Bierstoin last night
the Chief Burgess was reprobunted by M. XI.
Burke, Esq., and Chief Tosh appeared iu
person. Mho Justice liclil that tlierc was
sufficient evidence upon which to scud the
cases to Pottsville for trial and tlxod bail at
?00 for each officer in each case, and thoy
furnished $1,200 each before Justice Will
iams later in tho evening.
Tho accused officers say tho suits havo no
foundation and are in lino with tho persecu
tions that havo been heaped upon them for
trying to enforce tho laws against certain
people and other reasons. Tho arrests at the
wedding, they say, wuro made upon a war
rant sworn out by the Chief of Polico after
tho neighbors had complained of a long con
tinued disturbance, including fights in the
house and yard. As to the arrest at tho
Council chamber thoy say llaytkiowicz in
sisted upon getting into tho place where the
prisoners were before tho polico could got
matters in shape to give tho accused men a
hearing. Kaytkiewicz was asked to wait
until that could bo done, but becomo over
bearing. Ho was ordered from tho premises,
and after repeated refusals to comply with
the order was locked up.
