Ilratroyetl Last Night,
At 10:05 o'clock last night the oil honsa at
tho Turkey Kun colllory was discovered on
fire. Tho watchmau, Thomas CliUbril, dis
covered tho western end of tbe 'oof In ft
blaze. Tho whistles of the colliery wero
sounded and shortly after tho flro boll was
rune, tho entire flro department. Including
tho Defensors, of Turkoy Kun, responded.
Tho position of the flro was an awkward one.
but tho hoso carriages and chemical engine
succeeded in getting upon tho scone. Tho
flro was too far advanced, howover, and the
burning oil niado n furnaco of tho placo.
Besides this there was a short supply of
water.
The building and Its contents wero de
stroyed, oauslug a loss of about 200. The
powder house was located about SO feet west
of tbe oil house. A largo quantity of powder
was retnoTOd and tho former building saved,
Tbe building destroyed was a one-story framo
structuro with corrugated Iron roof and a
cellar. It was located about 800 feet oast of
tho breaker.
Tbo origin of tho fire Is not known. Tho
matter Is being investigated, as (hero was no
flro near tho building, and no explanation
can be arrived at.

July 4th tho haby was entered in a show at
that placo and took first prize. Mr. and Mrs.
Humble, qutto naturally, aro very proud
over the result. The Erlo Dally Times says :
"The annual Grand Army picnic was hold at
tbo Head and it is estimated that fully five
thousand people wore on the grounds. A
featuro of tho picnic was the graud baby
show, which bad boon widely advertised and
in consequenco sixteen babies faced the
judges. Tbe littlo creatures wero all good
looking and tho judges had a hard time to
pck out tbe prize winners. It was decided
that it took flyo points to win, and the first
prizo, a baby go-cart, valued at flfoon dollars,
to the baudsomest baby botweon tbe ages of
six and twelvo months was awarded to the

While Joseph H. Wyatt, Jr., 12-ycar-old
son of Hon. Joseph Wyatt, was playing with
other boys at tbe corner of Main and Lloyd
streets last night, bo was struck across tho
back of tho head with a ploco of bod-slat in
the hands of Drew Carroll, agod 10 years.
The blow inflicted a scalp wound oyer two
Inches Jong, and tho assault (s alleged tq have
bocn entroly unprovoked. Mr. Wyatt
threatens the offender with arrest. Carroll,
by the way, is ono of the parties who makes
a practice of loafing about tbe cornor referred
I to, and against whom many complaints bave
been made by people obliged to pass the
placo.
A regular mcoting of the Borough Council
was held last night with Couuclliucn Mo
Quire, Coakloy, Tracoy, Boehm. Shoemaker,
Straughn, James, Bell, Brennan, Uarklns,
Hand, Noljwsnbu in attendance.
Immediately after tho reading of minutes
Mr. James Grant made application that Mrs.
Mary Murphy, of South Chestnut street, bo
exonerated from payment of taxes. Ho said
the County Commissioners authorised him
to stato that they considered the case a worthy
ono.
A written report of Boron cb Solicitor
Burko, on the payment of tbo $1.5 asked by
tho Dally News for publishing tho last bor
ough audit was read. The opinion stated
that tho Borough Auditors had no right to
contract tho bill, nuder tho law; that they
should have submitted their report to Coun
cil, and the latter could then bavo authorized
tbo publication. The only power tho Audi
tors havo in tbe premises is by posting hand
bjlls. Still, if Council considered the price
charged reasonable, it could pay tbo bill for
tho publication of the audit in tho nows
psper; If tho bill was unreasonable, or ex
cessive Council could not legally pay it.
Upon the reading being concluded by the
secretary Mr. James moved that tho Solici
tor's opinion be placed on file and the bill bo
rejected.
Mr. Neiswonter said ho would voto against
tbe motion because tho Auditors wero paid

Tho street committee then made a brief
report of repairs made during the month,
after which Mr. James stated that tho high
way on Dunn's hill, west of Lamb's colliery,
Is in a very bad condition.
On motion of. Mr. Brennan it was decided
to put a crossing on West Cherry street, and
ono at tho corner of West and Centra streets.
Tho street committee was also instructed to
open thu road at Klondike, and the Chlof

Bids weto then opened for tho First ward

streets, with best quality of Hamburg vitrified
brick, for (1.03 per squaro yard. P. J. Cleary
offered to do tho work, with tho same brick,
rorfl.bu per square yard.
Mr, James stated that at tho last regular
meeting In June Council instructed tbo Solic
itor to go into court and ask that a dato be
fixed for argument of tho caso against the
Lakcsldo Hallway Company by tbo borough,
to compel tho company te lower its track at
tho place selected for tho paving. Ho said
the borough had expended (03 in taking
ovidence, and he could not understand why
tho case was not pushed to argument. Ho
was confident that if tho borough could not
compol tbe railway company tocnt tbo street
down, it could not compol It to pay Its share
of tho paving. In addition to this, he argued
that tbo borough has no money to expend for
paving, but u it could seoure tbe money

bill. He said Pottsvlllo- paid only ?20 to
each Auditor, and it was -enough, A member
replied : "Yes, and you vot,cd to 1'ay the
Auditors $100 each,"
Mf. James thought it a shamo that peoplo
who held the whip over the Council last year
should ask that such a bill bo paid.
M. E. Doyle was allowed to speak on tho
question and he defended tho bill as not boing
excessive. Ue appealed to the members to
pay his bill and stated that several years ago
the borough paid $200 to havo tho audit
published In tho two papers of town. He
appealed to Mr. Straughn several times dur
ing bis roinarka as to tho justification of tho

Mr. Boehm said two wrongs did not mako a
right. He thought tbe bill excessive, in
view of tho fact tbtt only $55 was paid for
printing tho report last yoar. Ho also ob
jected to !ton.the.2ronnd that tlio Auditors,
nndor tho Solicitor's opinion, snouia nave
consulted Council before contracting tho bill.
In reply to a question as to a probable suit If
tbo bill is not paid, Mr. Boehm said tho
parties cpuld not eu0 tho borough because
Council did not contract the bill they must
suo the Auditors.
Mr. Straughn said the Solicitor's opinion
was clear that he was not opposed to the
bill simply because it was excessive, or be
cause it came from tho News company ; that
ho was trying to represent the pooplo so far

tho Borough Auditors, who set tbemselyes
qp as great reformers, could have tho audit
printed for $55, they should not go to an
expense of $125. Because tho borough has
paid $200 in tho past for tho work does not
justify the prosent Council In expending tho
same amount any more than It would be
tuBtlfled in BDonding $400 for it. Mr.
Straughn said be was willing to pay the
same sum as last year. Ho did not maintain
that tbe price charged was excessive, as any
one knew that a publication t a newspaper
oould not be eacured as cheap as In poster
form, but tho Auditors had no authority to
incur a debt for newspaper publication,
Mr. Boll was the especial ohamplon of the
bill, and thought tho bill should bo paid,
and then let Council put a stop to tbe practice.
Mr. McQuiro saidi "I shall voto against
the bill, because I consider it oxcosslve."
A yote was taken on the motion to reject
and was declared lost for want of a majority.
The voto stood 0 to 6, Messrs. Straughn,
James, Boohm, Shoomaker, McQuiro and
Hand votlug in tbo affirmative, and Messrs.
Neiswenter, Coakley, Tracey, Brennan, Boll
and Harkins in tho negative.
Mr. Hamns then moved that tno nut oe
on the paving now projected. Ho moved
that tho paving be laid on the table until
December, 1800.
Mr. McGuire asked how $1,000 could be
saved, and Mr. James replied that that much
1 eduction could bo secured ou two squares if
tho borough should pave six or eight squares,
instead of two.
Mr. Bell was also of the opinion that tho
railway company eonld not be compellod to
pay its share of paving if It cannot bo com
pelled to cut down the track to grade, and he
did not know why the Solicitor did not havo
a dato fixed for argument of tho caso.
Mr. Tracey did not want to see tho puving
started until tho railway company gives a
guarantee that it will pay Its sharo.
President McQulre stated that Council
could oompel this, and alsostatod that there
was amplo money In sight for the work.
