NEW MEN PROBABLE.
Boilers on Both Sides in Solicitorship
Fight-Attorney p. w. Gallagher
Is the Dark Horse on the
Democratic Side.

Another futile attempt was made to
elect a city solicitor last night None
of the Democrats attended, and of the
Republicans there were absent Select
man James, of the Sixth ward: Select
man Schroeder, Of the sixteenth ward,
and Commoncr Iizleman. uf the
Eighth ward. ,.rssrs. Schroeder and
Zi2leman were not expected: MIR.
James absence was unexplained Mr.,
Fellows. who, with Mr.. Schroeder, was
absent from the last session, was in
attendance last night and answered
roll call.
Mr.. McAndrew, the one Democrat
who attended. agreed to help make a
quorum but was not expected to vote
for the Republican nominee, Mr.. Nos-
burg Had an election been attempt
ed Mr.. McAndrew would have nom
mated a candidate of his own ana cast
his vote for him.
1t was the intention Of the Nosburg
men to go ahead with the election if
twenty-One votes were in sight. Or
dnarily twenty-five votes are neces-
sary to choice, but owing to the fact
that the Twenty ward is unreprc-
sented in common council, twenty-One
would be a majority of the members
elect, it is cOntended, and this is what
is called for by the law governing the
election.
1t is not outside the bounds Of prob
ability that two new candidates win
be picked upon. Mr. Nosburg, it is
feared. will not be able to secure the
full Republican support, and Mr.. Me
Ginley, it is freely admitted. will nou
be able to control even the full min
ority.
Mr.. McAndrew and four other DEM
ocrats, it is understood. have openly
declared that they would prefer some
other candidate. Mr.. MCAndrew has
even gone so far as to state that he
will not under any circumstances vote
for Mr.. Mckinley.
In case of an election having been
attempted last night Mr.. McAndrcw
would have voted for Attorney p. w.
Gallagher. There was Considera BILE
Gallagher talk among the Democrats
who hung about the Corridors and
when election comes it is very likely
that Mr.. Gallagher win be the Demo-
cratic nominee.
When the matter of naming a day
to which the meeting should be ad-
journed was being discussed, Mr.. San
derson and Mr.. Keller both announced
that they would make no promises 70
attend any future meetings.
If it was convenient for them to do
so, they would attend, providing there
was hope of making an election: if it
meant that they had to sacrifice I'M
portant business engagements TO come
to the meeting they could not promise
that they would. They did not like the
prospect, they said, Of running - the
city hall a couple OF evenings eacn
week all for no purpose.
Adjournment was made to go
o'clock tomorrow evening.

LIVELY TIMES AHEAD.
Board of Control Will Split UP on
the Appropriations

The finance committee of the board
of control met last night and took up
the task of alloting to the various
committees what they are to be al
lowed to spend of the annual appropri-
atiOns. Several meetings will be re-
quired to complete the work and when
the report comes before the board at
next Mondays meeting there will be
a very lively time.
Some members want to pay off the
balances due on building lots recently
purchased by the board. Others pre-
fer to continue paying interest on the
$2l 900 represented by these balances
and use the money in the construction
of new buildings. Other members are
determined upOn securing new sites,
Mr.. Shires, of the First ward; Mr..
Leonard, of the Twenty first, and Mr..
SChaefer, Of the Tenth, having given
notice that they will insist on appro-
priations for this purpose. Still other
members favor increasing the pay OF
teachers and will demand that this be
provided for before attention is given
to anything else.
There must necessarily be some dis
appointment as the revenues will not
permit of all these expenditures. The
chances are that there will be a num-
ber of combinations among the cham
pions of the various propositions and
that when Monday night comes the
board will be broken up into number
of small factions.

SOME MORE CHANGES,
Made in the Coal Department of the
D., L. & w. Company.

Miners employed by the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western company
will hereafter receive ten cents for a
powder keg instead of four cents, rs
heretofore paid. This money is paid
into the treasury of the Mine Acct
dental Fund at the colliery where the
keg Is turned in, and is a direct bene-
tit to the members of the Fund.
Another order which is far reach
ing in its effects is that hereafter all
supplies used in and about the coll
lieries must be accounted for by tine
foreman thereof. For instance, if a
pump runner wants a piece of pipe. a
washer or some cotton. he must write
out an order and present to the inside
foreman before getting the stuff. The
same must be done by the outside men
through the outside foreman.
