Wrestling at Star.

Max Lutbcrg of New York, who proclaims
himself 10 be the champion l33pound wrestler
OF the United States, made his first appearance
in this city last night at the Star theatcr where
he easily threw John Paris, OF West Scranton.
Lulberg agrees TO throw any man OF his
weight in the city within fifteen minutes or for
felt sos. Paris, who is husky looking youth
weighed thirty pounds more than Lutberg, made
try for the S2j last night and when the two
men stepped on the mat it looked as ii it would
he easy money for him. No hold was barred
and it was agreed that flying as well as pin falls
should count Hugh Keenan, was chosen as rel,
cree
The two men went at it hard from the moment
time was called and it looked as il Lutberg Sc
cured fall within few seconds but the referee
didn't think so. Then Paris got hold OF Lutberg's
tights whereat the latter protested until the ref,
cree made Paris break away. lie was on his bac,
about ten seconds later tile time OF the fall be-
ing about minute and half The supporters Of
Paris yelled derisively at Lutbere whereupon he
agreed to throw Paris twenty-five times in an
taken up.
Lutberg will meet local wrestler named Ed
Sweeney tonight and will try conclusions with
Abe Cochran, of North Scranton, tomorrow night
lie will also wrestle at the matinees,
The wrestling match was preceded by show
given by the "original Little Egypt Burlesquers.'
The 'olio, which was passably fair, included mum

"Shaun Rllue."

For years Scranton has greeted Joseph Murphy
with big houses His popularity seems never tc
diminish. Two generations, at least, have
laughed and cried at his kerry Cow and
'Shaun Rhue'' and it is no rash speculation that
n third generation will make up his audiences
here, if his virility and the applause provoked
by his 'Shaun Rhuc' at the Lyceum last night
compose n fair criterion.
1t is not the kind of show your regular thea
tcr-gocr looks anXousy forward 10, but it is d
show that draws big house and pleaScs il I'M
mcnsey.
The character OF ''Shauu Rhue" gives oppor
tunity for some really clever work. and Mr.
Murphy, as may be believed, makes the most o
it. His impersonation OF young west Of Ire
land man, impersonnting middle'aged north o
Ireland man, requiring as it does two distinct
brogucs, is very credtaby done.
Mr. Murphy's company this year is one of the
very best he has brought TO Scranton. Paul Bur-
nett John DAILY, William n. Sheehan, Charlie:
Thome, James liazleton, Miss jeanette Fcgrell
Miss Mary Firmer and Miss lne2 Barlow, are all
capable artists,

brief debate. to-day amended the proposed law
dealing with the speed of automobiles so as 10
provide that automobiles may be at speed
of twenty miles hour outside of cities and at

These amendments were made upon motion of
Senator Trainer OF New York. When the bill
came up for consideration Senators Trainer and
Grady urged that the bill be laid aside until the
return of Senator Bracket, who. they said. de-
sired to speak it. Senator Cocks replied:

a dose prepared for US, so that we might just as
use for me to tell the Senate that this bill ought

Senator Trainer then offered an amendment pro-
viding that the speed of eight miles hour
within cities and villages should not apply 'un
incorporated villages" Senator Krum opposed the
adoption OF this amendment. saying that IL was
just much of crime to kill with an
automobile in unincorporated village in
that was Incorporated. The amendment never
theless was adopted and also one increasing the
speed permitted TO automobiles outside of cities

LEGISLATORS 10TH TO COMMIT THEM
SELVES ON THEIR ATTITUDES TOW
ARD STRANAHAN MEASURES.

Albany. Feb "a (speciaD.-There appears to be
a disposition the part OF some Republican mem
bers of the legislature not TO commit themselves
to the support of the bills sent here yesterday by
Mayor Low OF New-York and introduced by Sen
ator Stranahan authorizing the Board OF Estimate
and Apportionment to consolidate existing city
positions ito readjust titles and to increase or de-
salaries in any of the departments or
bureaus of the city.
This hesitation is due they say, to the idea that
the bills radical. and not because any judgment
has yet been formed upon them. Assemblyman
Kelsey, chairman of the Assembly Committee
Cities. looked the bills this morning and de-
cided introduce them at present. He said:
did not have time to consider the measures
thoroughly and 1 dsliked to accept them my
own until had carefully examined them. 1t is ap-
parent from the most superficial examination of the
bills that they give the Board of Estimate and
Apportionment of New-Yors great power"
Governor Odell said tonight when he asked
II he had read Senator Stranahan's bills:
mo; only newspaper summary of them. It is
evident. however. that they of great impor-
lance"
The Governor did not give any opinion of the
measures. 1t evident. however, from state
ments which were cautiously made by Republican
in legislature that the bills already
