RAILROADS SUSPENDED NO BUSINESS TRANSACTED YES
 TERDAY AFTERNOON.  During the Hour of Presidents Funeral Switch Engines Were Stopped and Freight Offices
 Were Closed.

With the railroads as with everything else in Montgomery yesterday, business was practically suspended during cer- tain hours of the days.
 All of the uptown passenger offices closed at F o'clock and most of them remained closed the balance of the day. Business in the local freight offices of the different roads was practically sus- pended at F o'clock, though of course q working force attended to all urgent business. In the offices of General Freight Agent Shepard of the Louisville and Nashville and Traffic Manager Lutz of the Western there was a cessation of business in the afternoon.
 In the different railroad shops there was 0 practical shutdown after the din- her hour--12 o'clock.
 Over in the Mobile and Ohio yards the following was posted:
 "Bulletin-All switch engines and work trains and all concerned in con- struction work of all kinds and all trains of every kind of the Mobile and Ohio will stop at 2 D. m. and will not move until 3:OS p. m: on account Of Mir. Mo- Kinley's death"
 The announcement in The Advertiser yesterday morning that Passenger Agent R. W. Smith of the Mobile and Ohio, would resign that position on the first of October was correct in all but one particular. MT. Smith returned yester day morning from North Carolina where he had been after his family. and said that the statement that he had declined the Mobile position was a mistake.

liam II. Jessup and William j. Hand
was presented to each member of the

follows:
70 the Members of the House >: Representatives,. .
The following facts are urged tor your consi.
Grafton, with regard to the Vaughan bill, the
avoWed purpose Of which is to reduce the liquor
license fees, applicable to scranton.
l. The passage OF the bill is urged solely hy
the liquor interests.
>. The bill is not supported hy the city gov.
crnmcnt, nor is the legislation asked in the in
teIgsts Of the city.
3. The passage Of the bill is strongly protest
cd against by the clergy and members OF the
Christian churches.
!. The bill is opposed by the business men OF
the city, who have signed in large numhcrs a
protest against il.
5. The effect Of the passage of the bill
would he to deprive the city of $4,000 OF revc'
uuc the coming year, when additional revenues
arc imperdtivcly demanded.
Tie following is tie text OF the protest signed

ducing the cost of liquor licenses from Tl,l00 TO
$3.50 Tor the following reasons, VIZ: The city Of
Scranton has just passed from the third class ia
the second class OF cities, and is III need Of all
revenues obtainabe. The city requires for ad'
ditpnal salaries and the eXpens. ol paid IRE
department. which is imperatiycly demanded,
about $4,000 additional rcIenue. The Vaughan
bill would cut of city revenues instead OF in
craasing them. 10 datc, under the Sl,lO0 act,
ljS liccrses have been issued, yielding the city
Sl42 200 while the greatest possible revenue to
have been derived under the Vaughan bill would

directors of the departments of public
safety and public works, as well as am
additional clerk for the recorders office
and two more for the city controllers
office.
The appropriation of $72O asked for
the salary of a street commissioners
clerk has already been eliminated from

also cut out the $3.50 asked for "a clerk
to the street commissioner. In lieu of
these two it Is planned to provide $500
for clerk to the department of public
works.
1T is planned to cut out the item Of
$3.50 for a clerk to the chief of the fire
department and to provide 5000 for a
clerk to the department of public
safety. Recorder Moir insists that he
must have an additional clerk, while

FOR THE GRIP.
You Have Heard of Many Remedies.
Did You Ever Try This OneP

Everybody you meet on the streets
nowadays either has just had the grip,
is coming down with IL or has n sure
cure for it,
The disease has been puzzle to
physicians ever since its appearance
several years ago and IL is as much
of puzzle today as IL was then. 1t
exhibits such a variety of symptoms In
different individuals and leaves such
disastrous results after apparent re-
covery that as yet its prevention and
cure has baflled medical science.
However, there is no doubt but that
the grip Is catarrhal in character and
the leading symptom in nearly every
case is increased secretion in the head
and throat; in fact, the first indications
of Ia grippe are those of a cold in the
head which extends to the throat and
lungs
Dr. johnson Ames advises as the
safest course to pursue on the first ap-
pearance of grip symptoms to keep to
the house for a day or two and take
Stuarts Catarrh Tablets every hour
the first day and every two hours the
following day and states that THIS will
| break up the trouble before it becomes
deap-seated.
These catarrh tablets are antiseptc
| and harmless and prevent fever and
the further development of grip germs,
and ward off the ever present danger
of pneumonia.
DR.. Gerald Simpson says: II have
found Stuarts Catarrh Tablets pleas
ant and thoroughly reliable remedy for
the grip, especially with elderly people,
with whom this prevailing disease Is
always dangerous" The tablets can
be found at any drug store and il used
freely during the first few days of the
attack will break it up.
La grippe is a catarrhal affection. tho
germs are in the air and no one is
proof against 1t. but the timely use of
| Stuart's Catarrh Tablets will prevent
any serious results.

THE CONTROLLERS SALARY.

Those who have given the matter
study say that the salary of Controller
Howell cannot be raised from $4,000 TO
$500 as provided in the reorganiza-
ton ordinance. The ripper bill fixes
the salary of this Office at this figure
and the ordinance is drawn up in ac-
cordance with Its provisions
1t Is said that to raise the control
lers salary to $1,000 would be TO offend
against the section of the constitu-
tion which prohibits the increase or
reduction of "A public officers salary or
