BOTH ARE HEsITATING.
School Board Committees Failed to
do Anything Definite.

After a brief session last night the
building committee of the board of con-
troll decided that it would not be able
to report on the bids for the two new
school buildings at next Monday
nights adjourned meeting and con-
cluded to defer the report until the
regular meeting on the following Mon
day night, so that there would be am
pie time allowed for proper cOnsidera-
tion of the proposals.
There is a possibility that the bids
will be referred back to the board, one
of the members said last night, for
the reason that they exceed the esti-
mate and the committee does not wish
to take the responsibility of adopting
bid under this circumstance.
The teachers committee had another
session over the proposed raise of SAL
aries, but did not come to any definite
conclusion. There is practical unani-
nifty on the proposition to increase the
beginners salary, but the committee
was divided on the matter of granting
a $40 raise to the intermediate teachers.

COAL DEALERS VISIT US.
They Were the Guests of Local Coal
Mining Companies While Here.
Manner in Which They
Were Entertained.

Two hundred and forty members of
the Coal Dealers association, of Him
ois and Wisconsin, spent several hours
in this city yesterday as the guests Of
the Delaware and Hudson and Della
ware, Lackawanna and Western COM
panies.
After the adjournment Of their con-
vention in Chicago Tuesday they start
ed East on their fourth annual excur-
sion in a special vestibuled train as
guests of the coal roads and big coal
dealers throughout the East. Wednes-
day was spent at Niagara Falls and
Buffalo and Wednesday night they
started for Wilkes-Barre over the Le-
high Valley. arriving at that place at
Z o'clock Thursday morning.
They were met by q party of local
coal men and escorted to the Hotel
Sterling where they were breakfasted
by the Lehigh Valley Coal company
After a visit to the Prospect colliery
they were taken in tow by the officials
of the Pennsylvania Coal company,
and rendered an excursion to Lake
Ariel. Returning in the evening they
We're shown about Wilkes Barre and
after spending the night aboard their
special train started for Scranton,
leaving over the Delaware and Hudson
road in a special train at $50.
A stop was made at the Bellevue
breaker, where A. II. Storrs, who, with
j. George Eisele, represented the local
companies, showed them about the
large breaker and escorted them
through the mine. The visitors found
a great deal of amusement in watch
ing the breaker boys scramble for coins
which they threw from the car win
dows while they We're waiting for the
train to start. The breaker boys en-
joyed it, too.
Arriving in this city, the party was
rendered a complimentary luncheon by
the Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern and Delaware and Hudson COM
panies at the Jermyn and were after
wards shown about the MarVine col
liery.
They returned to Wilkes Barre at 5
o'clock, and last night were banuuetted
by the Business Mems club.
Today they will visit Hazleton and
Mauch Chunk, and the next three days
will be spent in New York city. They
return home Wednesday night.
They We're enthusiastic over the
treatment they were receiving at the
hands Of the people of the anthracite
regions. Said one of the party yester-
day TO a Tribune reporter: western
people know real hospitality when they
see it, and as one of them | am pleased
to say that your hospitality and gem
erosity is only limited by our capac-
ity."
The president of the association ia
De Los Hull, of Chicago. It is an or
ganization designed to prevent by con-
certed action, any railroad or coal COM
pany selling direct to the consumer.
In the party were one hundred and
seventy retailers, forty wholesalers and
about thirty ladies, the latter being
made honorary members of the asso-
citation for the occasion.

KIDNAPPING THE CANNES.
Thirty-one Unmuzzled Dogs Already
Impounded.

The dog-catchers have commenced
work in earnest and results show that
their title is not a misnOmer. During
the two days that they have been out
with their lassoes thirty-one promises
of fresh frankfurters have been gath
cred into the pound located in Bellies
stables, in the rear Of city hall. II not
ransomed by the payment of 80 with
in twenty-four hours after they are
impounded they are killed and disposed
of to the dessicating works.
The lasso with which the unmuzzled
cur is dragged shrieking' to his doom
consists of a stiff, wire moose about a
foot in diameter, fastened to the top
a stout pole about six feet long. The
moose is thrust over the dogs head,
and with a sudden jerk frightened about
his neck. While thus held helpless he
is lifted up and dropped into a screen
covered wagon to be taken to the
pound.

ployers' liability business, which is not
permissible for that class of corpora
tions under the laws Of New York, and
for that reason the application was re-
fused.

The last of the Lackawanna boom
ers who went to the state convention
to promote Judge Il. L. Smiths
chances for the Supreme court nomina-
ton returned to this city yesterday
very tired and hoarse and disappointed
because their favorite did not win. 1t
was one of the most conspicuous parties
of boomers that visited the state capt.
tai this week and the defeat of Lack
awanna's candidate cannot be charged
to any lack of vocal efforts on their
part. Headed by Attorney ID. J. Reedy
one party of rooters established them
selves in the gallery and other in the
balcony of the convention hall and
there remained unmindful that the
mercury boiled in it's little tube till
it sizzled out at the top"
Every vote that showed change in
favor of Smith was greeted with a
great hurrah. When the unsuccessful
effort was made during the twenty
second ballot to stampede the conven-
tion for Smith the Lackawanna root
ers made their supreme demonstra-
ton. Nothing like the enthusiasm they
succeeded in arousng had prior to
tnat time been known in the conven-
ton.

During all of the cheering and yell
Ing the only real rival of the LaCka-
wanna disturbance committee was the
one that came from Fayette county in
the interest of Judge stephen Leslie
Mestrezat, the nominee. 1t was not
large, but it was long of limb, and
loud of voice. curing the noon recess
Thursday these irrepressible gentle
men were tipped that their candidate
would be the winner, for Colonel Cuff
fey had said SO, and thereafter their
outbursts were louder, longer, wilder
and more frequent than before.
1t made no difference whether their
candidate was being forced up or down
by the fortunes of battle. The fact
that his name was mentioned was all
they cared about. The moment Nest
rezat was pronounced they broke forth,
jumped to their feet and wildly waved
hats, coats, umbrellas, newspapers
and canes. They had supplied them
selves with large American flags, but
these were kept concealed until the
supreme moment arrived on the twen-
ty-eighth ballot, when the convention
went headlong to the Fayette county
man. Then they unfurled their flags,
arrayed the remnants OF their voices in
battle line and made the last fierce
charge. When it was all over and the
chairman Of the Fayette county delega-
ton. r. L. Umbel was called before
the convention by his admiring friends,
he could scarcely talk. Next to Col
onel Guffey, Judge Mestrezat owes his
greatest debt of gratitude to the un-
assuming young man who calls him
self Umbel

The Philadelphia delegation promptly
claimed the honor of making the nom-
ination. 1t does not deserve it. Only
when orders were issued and the cur
rent Of the convention was set toward
the jurist from Fayette did they give
him any support. 1t was their votes
that finally nominated him on the
twenty eighth ballot, but he would
have been named without them just the
same. Nothing could check the stam-
pede at that time.
The Philadelphians had given prom
ise Of support right and left and dur
ing the first twenty ballots they div
ided their votes with great impartial
ity. Realizing that they could not car
ry their candidate, Yerkes, through
they gave him all of their 65 votes on
the twenty-first ballot carried his boom
up to the top notch and then allowed
it to collapse satisfied that they had
done their duty by their reighbor from
Bucks.
Judge Smith was the first choice Of
many of Philadelphia's delegates and
second choice of many more. After
Yerkes had been disposed it was deem
ed time by the Philadelphia leaders to
pay all their obligations to the Lacka-
wanna man and then eliminate him
from the contest Judge Smith was
not factor in the convention after the
twenty-second ballot, when his vote
ran up to 107. On the next ballot the
Phladelphians began to throw blocks
of their votes to Mestrezat. Philadel-
phia paid its obligations, pleased Cuff
fey and got in out of the wet in the
most complete manner. Clever men
these Quaker City politicians.

One of the heroic members Of the
Iackawanna band Of roOters was Tom
Mack, Of WintCn. He weighs 800 pounds
and is as steadfast as he is large. On
the day the convention opened he To-
Gated the pillars that support the gall
lery got a seat directly over one of
them where he would be safe, and from
the moment the convention opened un-
til it closed he never deserted his post.
He was not noisy, but he was impos-
Ing and substantial and though rivu-
lets of sweat wore furrows in his face
he refused to leave the burning gall
lCrV.
Tho action Of the leaders Of the Luz
zerne delegation brought down on them
some choice eXpletiYes that were both
loud and deep from the local boomers.
Judge Lynch was never a possibility,
the Lackawanna men declared, and he
was kept in the field until the last to
prevent tho Luzerne delegates who
would vote for Smith as second choice
from securing liberty Of action. Judge
Lynch had many energetic workers but
was unable to develop any real
strength. John NJ. Garman at first
tried TO get the Luzerne delegates to
go TO E4llllelllIpul as a StNbllu CIOlCe
and when that failed wanted to give
q complimentary vote to Judge Yerkes.
This also failed. Some of the Luzerne
delegates served notice that the mo-
ment Lynch was dropped they would
vote for Smith. Lynch was not al
lowed to drop.
At Harrisburg after the convention,
it was the opinion of the men who
make study Of state politics that the
nomination Of Judge Mestrezat from
the western Part OF the state as the
Democratic candidate makes Judge r.
w. Archibald the logical Republican
nominee.
From the expressions heard at the
state capital it is evident Judge Arch
bald has a large, devoted following in
the state who admire him as a man
and a jurist. They win be pleased to
see him honored with the supreme
court nomination.
