RemOnstrance Against Pizcr.
The last petition heard yesterday
against which there was remon-
STRANGE filed was Lewis Pliers for
hotel in Jermyn. Pizer proposes to
sell liquor In building on Main street,
formerly occupied by Coal Operator
John Jermyn. Attorneys j. Alton
Davis and Taylor Il Lewis appeared
for the petitioner and Attorney c. $.
Woodruff for the remonstrants. The
main reason and the only one ad-
vanced against the petition was that
five of the fourteen men who signed
Pliers application do not reside In the
same ward he does.
Mr.. Davis, for the petitioner, sub
mitted the act of assembly to court.
The act reads that applications must
be signed by citizens residing within
the ward, borough or township. MI
Davis argued that the meaning of the
act did not make wards apply to bor-
oughs, only to cities: that as long as
the signer lived within the borough 1t
was sufficient. Court then adjourned
until . o'clock this morning.

DEATH WAS NATURAL.
Siias Bellies. OF Oak Hill. Not Hurried orr,
the Jury Says.

Chemist Charles Koempel was pres
ent at the meeting of the coroners jury
last night and explained that he had
made chemical analysis OF the con-
tents OF the stomach of Silas Bellies. OF
Oak HILL Mr.. Koempel stated that ne
first made test to discover any traces
of arsenic and found none, then looked
for strychnine, after that for poisoning
by atropa He found none OF these
drugs. But he found that there We're
very minute traces of morphine; not
e Nough however, to arouse even sus-
p cion that the powder was the cause
of death.
Mr. Koempel said that the only poison
which would not linger in the stomach,
but which would be almost instantly
absorbed. is hydrocyanic acid. But the
presence of this poison in the system
could be instantly detected by the eX-
halation from the body.
The jury deliberated after hearing
the report of the chemist and rendered
a verdict that the death of Bellies was
due to natural causes.

AGAINST THE NEW TAX.
Scranton Board OF Trade Passes Strong
Resolutions Protesting Against the
Passage of House Bill No. 239.

a special meeting of the members of
the board of trade was held last even
ing for the purpose Of protesting
against that portion Of house bill No.
23S so far as it applied to the taxing of
municipal corporations. Captain W.
A. May presided and a report of the
manufactures committee was read
by Secretary d. 3. Atherton, after
which the recommendations of the
committee We're supported by j. A.
Lansing, II. E. Paine and J. Fl. Kem-
merer The following resolutions were
then unanimously adopted:
The Scranton board of trade, as repre-
senting the manufacturing interests of the
city of Scranton, hereby enter their pro-
test against the passage of house bill No.
239 so far as 1t applies to the taxation Of
manufacturing corporations.
The development of Pennsylvania in
general, and the northeastern portion in
particular, Is due to the encoura cement
offered under its laws to manufacturing
industries. We deem it unwise to arrest
this development and progress in any re-
spect Any act which tends, as this act
does, to unjustly discriminate as between
individuals and an aggregation of indi-
vduals (Which Is all that constitutes a
corporation) engaged in the same class
of business, is against public policy and
will render inadvisable and impossible
such combinations of capital as are neces-
sary to carry on and develop large indus
tries, and consequently to develop the
property OF the whole state.
This act also places on such corpora
tlons the burden of not only paying inter
est for the use of capital received from
residents of other states and represented
by its bonds. but also imposes tax upon
that same capital which must be paid
directly by the corporations.
Resolved, That a copy Of this action be
forwarded to the members of the legisla-
ture from Lackawanna county.

CLEANING UP THE STREETS.
Removing the Winters Accumulation of
Ice and SNOW.

Streets In the central part of the city
are beginning to assume their normal
condition. The last blizzard and the
following severe weather left great
mounds of ice and snow along all the
streets, adjacent to the cutters, and
in some instances even the cutters were
choked. which caused water to lodge
and increase the quantity of ice.
For the last week workmen under the
direction of the street commissioner,
have been engaged removing this ac-
cumulation of ice with such good sue
cess that nearly all of the streets in the
central part of the city. as well as the
important thoroughfares in the sub
burbs are again passable for their full
width.
