SEIBAS RIBS FRACTURED.
They Penetrated the Lungs and
Caused Internal Hemorrhage.

Coroner Roberts made an autopsy
yesterday afternoon 1T 'uSlck $
lnorgue to determine the cause oi'
Michael Seibas' death. The young man
whose body was found carly Nester-
day morning in the yard Of No. 4
school, On tapOuS" avenue.
1t was discovered that instead of his
neck being broken as was at first
supposed, thle" of his ribs were
broken, which penetrated the lungs,
causing internal hemorrhages. The
injuries We're evidently caused by his
falling off the porch. where he was
sleeping, and in striking ON the fence.
There was an abrasion of the flesh
on the left breast, where the man had
struck against something which
caused the fractured ribs
The occupants of the house where
Seibas boarded assert that he was in
tuNicated, and went out ON the porch
to sleep, claiming that il was 100
warm inside the house, The Coro-
ner decided to hold an inquest in the
case, and ascertain more fully the de-
tails of the accident.
Seibas was - years of age, and had
only been in the country about seven
months. He is survived by his wife
and two children in the old country.

three and Il third per cent. that the
Academy of Music ever enjoyed closed
recesSionul substituted "Auld Lang
Syne" for the star Spangled Banner
at the conclusion of the closing per-
formance of Joshua Simpkins.'
With the close of the season ends the
joint management of Refs & Burgunder

management of Mr.. Refs. Today there
will be meeting in this city Of the
community of interests" controlling
the houses ON the circuit. i'm which
Scranton's two theatres figure, and at
of the Academy.
1t is understood that Manager Harry
Brown will be continued. II is certain
th;et he will be- retained as Il manager
but there is Il disposition to take him
from Scranton and place him at the
head of some house needing Il hustler
of his calibre, ana in consequence there
is strong possibility that Scranton
will lose him.

Academy, have leased the theatre 10

The adjourned hearing In the coro-
ners inquest to inquire into the
death OF George u. Watson, was held
in DR.. j. j. Roberts office last even
ing Engineer Archibald Wood was
present and gave his testimony. He
admitted having made II mistake in
lowering the carriage in the shaft
where the men were working, but con-
tradicted the testimony of Freboss
Joseph Powell, relative to the latter's
asking to be lowered in the Big
shaft.
Wood also admitted having received
instructions from Engineer Hill about
the men working in the SHAFT and said
he did not receive any signal from
them to lower the carriage. The only
signal he received was from Powell
through the speaking tube. and he
made the mistake of lowering the car
liage in the supply shaft where the
men were working. forgetting for the
mCment that they were down there.
Powell testified that he told Wood
that he wanted to he lowered down
the Big shaft. and that Wood fully
understood the instructions. having
told him that he was going over to
the Big shaft to lower the carriage
for him. but incidentally called him
no to the engine house and then told
him aobut the accident in which Wat
son lost his life. The jury rendered
the verdict as follows:

The contracts for the fire hose and
the hook and ladder truck to be p,ir-
chased by the city were awarded yes
terday morning. after Recorder Mur,
Director of Public Safety Wormser
Director of Public Works Roche, city
Solicitor Watson. Chief Engineer Iizel-
mann and Battalion Chief Slowe had
spent nearly four hours in going over
the big batch of bids and in listening
To the eloquent arguments advanced by
the agents of several of the companies
bidding.
1t was finally decided to award the
contract for the hook and ladder truck
to the LaFrance Fire Engine company,
OF Elmira. y. Y. whose bid for the
celebrated Hayes truck was $4,000. The
bid of the Seagravc company for their
newly patented truck was lower than
the bid of the T.aFranCe company, but
there are none of these trucks in use
ana therefore no means of telling
whether they work as we'll in practice
as in theory.
The New York fire department has
ordered two of them for the purpose of
testing their usefulness. There are. on
the other hand, no less than twenty
five of the Hayes trucks in Use in this
state alone. They have been tried and
found true.
The hose contracts We're awarded as
follows. Gutta PerCha and Rubber
Manufacturing company, 800 feet OF
Maltese Cross rubber hose at 81 Il foot,
with four-year guarantee: Eureka Fire
Hose company. $50 feet of Paragon

four-year guarantee; Fabric Fire Hose
company. 800 feet of rubber hose at 81
per foot, less 10 per cent. for cash, five
year guarantee.
The firms to which the hose contracts
were awarded were not the lowest bid
ders. but the guarantees offered were
for a longer term than those offered
by any of the other companies bidding.
The contract for the first-class fire en-
gine. as has been mentioned before.
was awarded to the American Fire En-
gine company at the price of $4,000. All
the contracts We're executed yesterday
