Drs. Wallace and Fisher to Leave.


Dr.H, Wallace has decided to locate
at Arkansas City in the south eastern
part of this state, and is already pack
ing up his goods preparatory to NOV
ing down. Arkansas City is lively
little city of about 5000 people, and
we predict the doctor will soon build
up good paying practice there. He
will leave in few days but his family
will not go for some weeks yet. DR..
S. S. Fisher will leave shortly on a
trip to the Pacific Coast to look up
the chance for a location out there.
If he does not find the coast towns
to his liking he will probably return
to his old home state of Ohio and try
practice there.

WHO WILL BE
THE NOMINEE?
FATE OF THE coNTRoLLERsHIP
rs NOT DECIDED.
Friends of P. w. Costello Say He
Has Fifty Delegates Chosen in
His Interests Out of Total of
Eighty-three - Controller Howell
Says the Assurances He Has Leads
Him to Believe He Will Be Re-
nominated - Candidate Vaughan
Is I'll in Bed.

The Democrats of the city held their
primaries Saturday afternoon, and to-
morrow at p. m. the delegates elected
will meet in the court house and nomi-
nate candidate for city controller. a
choice will be made from among the
following: Present Controller Esdras
Howell, Select Councilman d. w. Vau-
CHAN, OF the Nineteenth ward. and
County Auditor p. w. Costello. There
was no organized effort to set up dele
gates in the interest of any of the
candidates, but the friends of p. w.
Costello said yesterday that fifty dele
gates had been chosen in his interests.
If they are correct, he will be nomi-
mated. There will be only eighty-three
delegates in the convention.
Mr.. Howell said last night he feels
hopeful of the result in the convention,
and from assurances he has received
expects to have a majority of the dele
gates. The delegates elected in the
North Scranton wards are largely for
Howell, and those in the Fourth Fifth
Fourteenth and Fifteenth wards also.
Mr.. Vaughan was taken i'll with the
grip the day after he announced his
candidacy, and has been confined to his
bed ever since. Yesterday his condi-
tion was quite serious. His illness pre-
vented him from making a fight for
delegates, but his friends have not
given up the fight in his behalf.
This evening caucuses will be held in
the various poor districts of the city
and candidates will be nominated for
poor directors. These nominations will
be reported to Tuesdays convention.
The districts in which nominations will
be made are South ward, Middle ward,
North ward, of the borough of Scran-
ton; Providence township and Hyde
Park borough. After the coming cleo
tion, these poor directors will make
another assault on the present poor
board and endeaVor to put the men,
bers of it out of office. The result of
Saturdays primary elections in the
various wards follow:

of one of the three Vargo children who
died suddenly in Olyphant last week.
will have completed his labors today
and stated that an inquest will prob

senic had been found in the stomach
and believes himself that all three chill
dren died of arsenic poisoning. He is
inclined to the belief that the children
We're not Intentionally poisoned but ad-
mits that it is hard to form any other
theory as there is no evidence to show
that they had access to any poison

o'clock the Lackawanna county list will
be called. The term will probably con-
clude on Tuesday of next week, when
opinions will be handed down.
While the court is sitting here it will
probably make known its decision In
the matter of rule to show cause why
writ of habeas corpus should not be
issued in the case OF Alexander Berg
man, who threw Il bomb at II. c. Frick,
the steel manufacturer during the
Homestead strike of 1892 with the in
tention Of killing him. He was con-
yicted on five indictments and received
various terms of Imprisonment aggre-
eating twenty-one years.
1t is contended by his counsel that
three of the indictments against him
charge offenses that are not criminal in
Pennsylvania. and by cutting off the
nine years he got on these three in
dictments he would now be entitled to
his liberty.
Opinions may also be handed down
in the matter of the divorce proceed
ngs against A. L. English, director OF
public safety of Philadelphia, and the
right of school boards to compel teach
ers to be vaccinatcd.
