PLEASANT TRIP TO ITHACA.
It Was Enjoyed by a Large Party Of
Scrantonians- They Were Roy
ally Entertained.

The business and professional men OF
Ithaca say there is very strong bond
between that city and Scranton. This
is true and has been strengthened by
the business foresight of Judge Hand.
Horace L. Hand, Z, L. Fuller and
others who have built perfect system
Of street railways for that city
1t was the privilege of number OF
Scranton, Pittston and Montrose peo-
pie with their friends, by invitation OF
the Ithaca Street Railway company, to
inspect the road that has done so much
for chat city.
The party in special car attached
to the train which left Scrrnton at 0 q.
m. reached Ithaca at l. 80 p. III. A large
open car conveyed the party over the
street railway system Cornell college
campus was the first point Of attack.
| One stop was made on the bridge
spanning the glen TO the south of the
college grounds, and II most charming
view was had Of this deep gorge. After
inspecting the college buildings and
grounds the party was taken on an Ok =
tension road to the border Of the lake
where a casino is being built, and the
grounds being beautifi3d.
AT o'clock all were taken to th
| steamb boat landing, where Professor
Moses Crib Tyler, Professor Morris, the
mayor of the city, editor Of the Ithaca
Journal and other prominent citizens
joined the party and were taken twenty y
miles down the lake to the Cayuzn
Lake House at Sheldrake, where tt o
night was spent. The party, by this
time numbering fifty, were comfortably
cared for. The boat yesterday morn
ing brought the party back to Ithaca,
where the cars were in waiting to take
the company TO tho college grounds and
the power station of the street railway
and electric lighting system. Steam
power is also in reserve use and Ia used
only in case the water power Is insuf-
fcient
AT 1910 pm. the train left Ithaca
for Scranton. Everyone was loud in
his or her praise Of the kindness that
prompted the invitation for the trip.
This feeling found expression in the
following resolution adopted on the
train when homeward bound:

who have enjoyed the hospitality Of the
Ithaca Street Railway company and those
who have united in giving us one OF the
most delightful treats of our checkerel
and uneventful lives, hereby express as

appreciation ana thanks for the pleasure it
has given them.

STRANGER TO MERCY
Murderer k6dala Would Show None 10 His
Covering Victim,
IN Hiding near old FORGE
That Is Opinion of Sheriff Fahey Who
Has Been Working Industriously on
the Case Thinks That County
Commissioners Should Offer a Re-
ward - Believes Medala's Hiding
Place Would Then Be Disclosed.

IF the county commissioners would
consent to offer q reward l am conf
dent that Crisconzo Medala. who mur-
dered Emanuel Loro Mt Old Forge Sun.
day night, can bo captured, said Sher.
i'll Fahey yesterday after his return
from the scene of the murder. Il have
already spent over 500 in hiring men
and horses In an effort to run him
down, and as that must come out Of
my own pocket / think | should not be
asked to bear any further expense in
this case. But the man should be cap
tured, and il the county commissioners
will assist me am confident that l
can capture Medala.
every avenue of escape from the
vicinity Of Old Forge has been guarded
with vigilance since three hours after
the murder, aud am sure that Meiala
is kept in hiding by friends somewhere
in the vicinity of Old Forge. 1t is my
opinion that the offer Of a reward
would lead to his hiding place being
disclosed
Sheriff Fahsy ana several Of his as
sistants will 60 to Old Forge again this
morning. County Detective Shea Is
also continuously ut Old Forge 1t is
almost impossible to get any informa-
tion concerning the murderer, even the
man with whom he boarded at first
denying that he knew Medala's
name. Those who have been working
on the case have had several exciting
adventures.
COMMISSIONER DE1IUTH INTERVIEWED.
A TRIBUNE reporter found commits
Sioner Demuth in his Office yesterday.
He said that within d few hours he had
several inquiries from persons who re-
side at Ola Forge as to whether or not
the county would offer reward. Mr..
Demuth said that Commissioner s. W.
Roberts is now in MiddlOtown. n. Y,
and in his absence the other commits
disliked to take any action. Mr.. Rob
erts will return Thursday.
The additional facts that are being
brought to light show that the murder
was the most deliberate ever committed
in the history of the county. 1t appears
that Loro was disliked because he kept
barber shop in which only 5 cents
was charged for shaving,
Medala followed him for over 500
feet before shooting. After firing the
second shot Loro fell and, with his
hands clasped over his eyes to shut out
the view of his enemy standing over
him with q smoking revolver in his
hand, he besought Medala to spsre him.
For an answer the murderer fired three
other shots into the writhing body of
his victim.
Having finished his bloody work he
made his way through the crowd that
had gathered and going back to his
boarding house reloaded his SS-calibre
revolver and walked away. No one
attempted to stop him,

fierce Fire IN A brewery.
The One Owned by the Robinsons'
on Seventh Street, Damaged
to Extent of $4,000.

The fiercest fire of the year, aud one
that required the greatest efforts Of the
fire department to battle with broke
out yesterday morning on the second
floor in the main storage room Of the
b. Robinson brewery at Seventh and
Swetland streets on the West Side.
The flames were discovered at 9. 30
by the watchman. and a. force of en-
ployes set to work with the fire ap.

there We're three streams turned on the
building.
"he rooms In which the fire started
were stored with large quantities Of
malt hops. The total damage is esti.
mated at from $40 600 to SIS, OO0
Ex- Sheriff Charles Robinson, a part
owner OF the brewery, was seen yester.
day at his Office. His theory as to the
origin Of the fire is that it was caused
by some defect in the electric wires.
Chief Engineer Ferbers opinion is that
spontaneous combustion caused it.
the building is brick one and there
is very little inhlmmable material con-
nected with it, 1t is three stories
high aud laid out in such style as to
render it very disagreeable place to
fight fire. In order to got the streams
directed where they would be effective,
the tiremen were forced to climb on
the roof by means of ladders and turn
the water upon the flames through the
opening which the fire had made.
Another line was hauled to the roof of
the residence of Mrs E. Robinson ad-
joining. In less than an hour the
blaze was under control.
The alarm was sounded from box II
and Chief Ferber as soon as he saw the
task before him, caused a second alarm
to be rung, which means that addition

phone wire fell, ran from tho trolley
wire to q post on the north side Of
Lackawanna avenue and was supposed
to be protected from the current from
the trolley wire by porcelain insu-
lator. That ipsulator was in place
two years before the accident, and it
was conteuded by the plaintiff that
owing to its broken and imperfect
condition, the guy wire became
charged aud In turn charged the tele-
phone wire which dropped over it. The
real question at issue In the case is, was
the telephone company bound to take
notice that in the course of two years
that insulator which protected the guy
was liable to become useless and
therefore cause the trouble that
resulted2 II 1t knew that such a con-
dilion Of affairs was likely to arise
then it would have been its duty to
have so protected its wires that in case
they fell they would not drop on the
guy wire and thereby become a menace
to life.
The evidence In the case closed on
Saturday, and Monday was devoted to
the arguments OF counsel to jury.
Yesterday morning Judge Archibald de-
livered his charge. 1t was an abba Of.
fort, the various questions being treated
in an exhaustive manner. With the
painstaking care for which Judge
Archibald is famous, he carefully re
viewed every detail in the case that the
jury might thoroughly understand tho
whole subject.
THAT SECOND REASON.
AS has been shown above. the plain.
till claims that tho defendant was
guilty Of negligence for three reasons.
The second Was "becauss the wire
which foil was eaten through by rust"
This was withdrawn from the consid.
GRAFTON of the jury by Judge Archibald
because the company was only bound
to use ordinary care in maintaining its
wires SO far as breakaSe is concerned,
and there was no evidence to show that
it knew or ought to have known Of
tho defect in the wire, if there was
any.
The case went to the jury for consid-
GRAFTON on the other two grounds OF
negligence subject to point reserved
by Judge Archibald.
The point is: Was there negligence
on the part of the company in not SO
guarding its wires as to prevent them
from possible contact with guy wiros
connected with the trolley system? In
case the verdict Ia for the plaintiff
then the reserved point will come up
for argument, and when Judge Arch
bald has passed upon the matter it
will unquestionably be taken up
to the supreme court for re-
view. The decision Of that body
will he an authority on what
constitutes proper care by telephone
and telegraph companies to prevent
their wires from being made danger
GUS by contact with wires more heavily
charged
That is where the importance at
tached to this case rests and why it has
been watched with such close care by
those interested in the development
Of electricity as we'll as by the legal
profession.
