CRUSADERS SAY WAIT.
Have Perfect Reliance on the Worth
of Detectiye's Evidence.

The stories told by the accused coun-
cilmen, to the effect that they were ION
to Detective Harris all the time" is
not causing the crusaders to stay
awake nights worrying over the results
of their work.
Just wait and see," said one of the
most active of their number yesterday.
isn't it ridiculous to suppose that we
would go into these prosecutions with
out knowing the character of the testi-
mony we had to offer. We are per-
fectly satisfied with Mr.. Harris work"
Detective Harris, it develops, is
specialist in the line Of work for which
the Municipal league has engaged him.
He was q. spotter for Dr. Parkhurst
during his campaign against corrup-
ton in New York, and also played a
prominent part in the New York
Lexow and Mazet inquiry. He is at
tached to the Soyer detective agency,
Of New York and his chief recon-
mended him to the local crusaders as
one of the very best men in his en-
ploy.

ASSESSMENT WAS WRONG.
Upper Mulberry Street Property
Holders Win Their Fight in
the Superior Court.

By a decision Of the Superior court
in Pittsburg yesterday, affirming the
finding of Judge Archibald in the case
Of Henry Il. Koehler against the city
of Scranton, the city is made a loser
to the extent of $4,000 by its method
Of assessing the cost of paving Null
berry street.
Acting under the law, as the city
authorities read it, City Engineer
Phillips in figuring the assessment ac-
cording to the foot-front rule, prescrib-
ed in the ordinance, computed the
total cost Of the pavement from Mif-
fin avenue to Prescott avenue, includ-
ing street intersections, and divided it
proportionately among the properties
according to the number of feet-front
abutting on the pavement.
Property holders living on the east
erly erd of the street on the four
blocks on which there are double
tracks objected to this method of as
se5sment and through one of their
number, Henry Il. Koehler, represent
ed by Attorney l. II. Burns, had the
matter submitted to Judge Archibald
in the form of a case stated.
They argued that they could only
be asked to pay for the actual amount
OF Pavement laid in front of their
properties. The double tracks occu-
pied fourteen and one-half feet of the
roadway and the trolley company
paved this strip with brick on its own
eXncnse in conformity to the ordi-
nance under which it was given a
right of way on the thoroughfare. The
remaining nine and one-half feet OIL
each side was all the complaining
property owners thought they ought
to nay for. They also questioned their
liability for a proportionate share of
all the street intersections, as the
! street intersections in their neighbor-
hood were for the most part already
| paved.
The city held that the plain terms
| of the foot-front rule expressly stip-
ulated that the method pursued by the
| city engineer was the only one that
| could legally be employed.
Judge Archibald coincided with the
views Of the complainants except as
| to the street intersections. He said al
the conclusion of an elaborate opin-
| Ton
As the matter now stands, the advantage de
rived from the paving done by the street railway
is distributed among all the properties upon tho
whole line OF the improvement, many OF then
several blocks away instead Of being confined tC
those properties Immediately adjacent to it. 1
| this were carried to its logical conclusion rrcper
ties on the portion of street wholly occupied
| by street railway tracks might he made to pay a
much as those where the streets are entirely olea
OF them, position which we do not see our wsy
to sustain.

John Washburn sang in very pleas
ing voice lone Night in June" and
was followed by Miss Beatrice Morris.

was brought to a close by another Sc

Control Of the camphOr PrOduct.

"Formosa now controls the camphor
product of the world" says United
States Consul Davidson at Tamsui, in
recent dispatch to the State Depart
ment at Washington. The Japanese
annual production, says the consul,
mas dwipdled to 100000 pounds; the
Chinese yield has never exceeded 220,-
600 pouads, while the FormOsan sup
ply, increasing yearly reached 7,O00,-
900 pounds in 1895, and the yield Cor
the last four years has ranged over
100000 pounds.
To take full advantage of this ia
Yorable situation, the government has
placed the manufacture under it's con-
troll and made the sale of camphor a
monopoly, with two apparent objects
in view; first, increased revenue, and,
second, a more complete CONTROL over
the camphor forests.
