had a conference at the court house
yesterday with Commissioners Giles

muth. The institute is willing to OBJ
tain quarters elsewhere but thinks that
1t should be recompensed for the full
amount of money expended In fitting up
the room 1t occupied.
BY reference to the minutes of the
meeting of the commissioners In 1856.
when permission was given the insti-
tute to occupy room in the court
house. 1t was found that the agreement
was that If the institute vacated VOL
UNFAIRLY or by request of the commits
sioners within five years of the date of
its occupance it should receive the full
amount expended on the room.
If the room was used for more than
five years and less than ten. then one
half the money would be refunded. If
occupied more than ten years nothing
been in possession about nine years
and in accordance with the agreement
the county commissioners are willing
to pay one-half the money expended
on the room. The members of the in
stitute did not know that there was
such an agreement and thought they
should receive the full amount expend-
ed.
A definite decision as to what will
be done was not arrived at at yester-
days conference. The room as fitted
at present will be of little or no use
to the commissioners as it will have to
be entirely remodelled to make 1t of any
service for court purposes.

BIDS FOR THE SUPPLIES.
They Were Opened ut Meeting of Board
of Control Committee.

There was to have been a meeting of
the supply committee Of the board Of
control last night to consider proposals
for the furnishing of supplies for the
coming school year, but as only two
members, G.. H. VonStorch and James
OBoyle, put in an appea ance no action
was taken.
However, the curiosity of these two
led them to peep into the sealed bids, of
which there We're four, H. Howard
Beidleman. ]. A. Scranton & Son, W.
H. Withers and Reynolds Bros. Inas-
much as these latter two firms had a
warm struggle last year in the furnish
ing Of pads, the principal item in the
supply list, their figures this year were
watched for with much interest.
1t will be remembered that the COM
Tpittee undertook to select from sam
Piles furnished by the bidders the var
ious articles upon which bids were
asked, and as a result an allegation
came forward from Mr.. Withers to the
effect that Reynolds Bros, who were
awarded the pencil pad contract, had
not furnished the paper called for in
the specifications. There was much
wrangling and newspaper talk at the
time, but nothing came out Of 1t. This
year the commbttee specified particu-
lar kind of article desired in each case,
and as a consequence no difficulties Of
last years description are likely to re-
suit
1t Is evident that Withers is deter
mined to secure the contract this time,
as his bid Is nearly 10 per cent. less
than Reynolds Bros figures which are
the next lowest.
In the other items the other bidders
each had lowest bids. and It 10 likely
that the contract will be divided among
them.

Two comely. respectable looking wo-
pied the same cell In the station house
last night. They were Mrs. Lanfer
Kohlman ard Mrs. Marine Van Mort. of
Dickson City, and the cause OF their
being under lock and key was charge
of interfering with an officer in the dis
charge of his duty and pointing fire.
arms.
The accusation is made by Deputy
Sheriff T. j. Price, who alleges that he
went to Mrs. Kohlman's house yester-
day to levy upon her furniture and was
repulsed at the point of a revolver. He
swore out warrant against them, and
Constable jeff Roesler arrested the two
women last night.
The women's story is that the officer
came to Mrs. Kohlman's house, and
e'he being unable to understand his
mission, being Bohemian and unac-
quainted with English, refused to let
him in. He forced his way in and
handled Mrs. Kohlman rather roughly.
Seeing the trouble from her home
across the way, Mrs. Van Mort went
to her neighbours assistance and when
this reinforcement came the Bohemian
woman seized a revolver and chased
the deputy sheriff out of the house.
Both women's husbands are out of the
city looking for work.

DEATH WAS ACCIDENTAL.
So the Coroner's Jury IN the Case Of
Fritz Bauer Decided.


A verdict that Fritz Bauers' death
was caused by an accident in falling
down a stairway in the rear Of 425 or
427 Penn avenue, was last night re-
turned by the coroner's jury, after
hearing evidence upon the case in the
court house.
Bauers was found lying in the rear OF
the above number on Monday morn
ing and taken to the police station
He apparently had no physical powers
and was supposed to be suffering from
the effects of debauch. Early
Wednesday morning he was removed to
the Lackawanna hospital, where he
died in less than fifteen minutes after
being received.
What Mrs. Graves Said.
An autopsy performed by Coroner
Kelley and Hospital Surgeon Heald
showed that Bauers' neck had been
broken. Meanwhile Mrs. Graves, who
lives upstairs at No. 425, had told the
coroner and a Tribune reporter that
she saw Harry and Sam Goldschlager
two peddlers, knock and kick Bauers
down the rear stairway at the foot OF
WnlC0 tTe uIllOI was Aob'"
in a helpness condition Monday morn
ing.
Mrs Graves own testimony last
night and the testimony of Others
shows her to be a consumate fabricator
She did not testify to half that she told
the coroner and The Tribune reporter,
and she wavered and split hairs on the
little that she did not swear to. The
collective evidence tended to show that
Mrs. Graves was not to be believed;
that she was not home until at least
an hour after Bauers made his fatal
fall, and that the two peddlers were
not in Bauers' company after 7.SO
O'clock
Some Convincing Testimony.
The most convincing testimony Of
accidental death was offered by Mrs
Tessler. wife OF one Of the bakery firm
at No. 427. At $50 o'clock she saw
Bauers fall down the steps and fail to
rise again. The next morning he was
found on the spot indicated by Mrs.
Tessler.
Not more than a few moments were
spent in deliberation by the jury be-
fore 1t returned the verdict of acci-
dental death, which exonerates the
Goldschlagers from any responsibility
