NO SALARY FOR OFFICERS.
Treasurer MOrrisOn's Shortage !.

Troy. n. Y. Sept. 2S. The dtfalcation

the finance committee of the board of

only money available to the county at
the present time was SOS.
On account uf the lack of money
work ON the new court holiee will have
to be stopped. No county officer. from
grand jurors to the county judge. will
receive their salaries, and no bills
against the county can be- satisfied un-
ill the county can raise the money OF

granted to the county officers q writ

THE JUDGES DISAGREE.

Think the Same About n Case.

Judge Gunster handed down an Opin-

the case of James NJ. Everhart against

ing opinion.
Mr.. Everhart purchased about thirty
acres of coal land in Ransom township

RumOr Is False.

Editor of the Tribune.
Sir:-Certain individuals are circulating
rumors that Rev. Father Hodur. of Nam
ticOke, Is to be the rector of the new IN
dependent Polish Church of Scranton.
Such rumors are false and malicious, and
come from individuals of little principle
or conscience. Last Saturday we waited
on the Right Reverend Bishop O'Hara.
with n petition signed by 1871 members Of
the Polish congregation of Scranton, re-
questins the appointment of Rev. Father
Hodur as our pastor. To this petition
could have been added at least 800 more
names.
Rev. Francis Hodur addressed us urging
strict obedience to the command of the
bishop. We all have the fullest confidence
in the justice and wisdom of our bishop
and believe he will not hesitate in grant
Ing the request of the congregation, know
ing that the future fate of every Cath
olic Pole of this city depends on his grant
ing or refusing the request.
If the Right Reverend Bishop O'Hara
should refuse to grant the congregations s
request then II will be time to consider
future action, but we all hope that it will
not come so far, and any rumors discred-
iting us are without foundation. One thing
is sure, and this is that all Poles of the
city are united now and will do every
thing in their power to redeem the good
name that was stained by constant trou-
bles in the church.
