ON EVE OF BATTLE
Republican County Scrinmage
Reaches Boiling
Point.
MANY COMPLICATIONS DEVELOP
G. III. Deere Heads Anti-State Ma.
chine Crowd in Field-More
Primaries.

There has not been a Rock Island
county convention for some years
attended by so many complications
as are apparent on the eve of the one
that assemblies tomorrow This de-
velops not only out of the fight for
the nomination for state senator and
state representative. and the squahble
over the county ticket. but in the
part the United States senatorship is
playing in the matter. Billy Baker
and Jim McGarvey, the personal rep
resentatives of the Yates-Lorimer-
Hopkins push, have been working des-
perately to hold the county for the
machine, and in the event of failing
to carry it as they desire to prevent
instructions on the question of United
States senator altogether. G. H..
Deere on the other hand is determin-
ed to have the county instruct for his
friend, Charles G. Dawes, and above
ii all is the following that Billy Ma
son seems to have despite any effort
of any steering committee. From the
present survey of the field the United
States scnatorship promises to pre-
cipitata more bitter controversy
than any other duty the county con-
vention has to perform.

1t is likely there will be two dele
cations from Coal Valley on account
of the boiling faction supporting
Dave Lyons for treasurer. Tom Muir
ply is also seeking the position of
custodian of the county cash. Both
he and Lyons are residents of the
Valley. According to the report from
the village Murphy's followers were
too many and speedy for Lyons
workers. who withdrew from the eau
Gus on seeing they could not accom-
plish anything. The delegates whose
names are printed above are the ones
elected by the Murphy faction.
Two new candidates for county
treasurer developed in the upper end,
Charles George and Frank Cool, of
CordOva. The agreement between
Mr.. George and Mr.. Simonson was TO
the effect that if the latter failed in
his efforts to secure the nomination
for senator he would throw his sup
port to George for treasurer as the
candidate of the upper end of the
county. The Cordova delegation was
the prize, and the opposition, headed
by Cool, won.

to the effect that Wilcox was second

These three lights have formed
strenuous offensive and defensive al

to allow anyone else to have anything

So Wilcox tackled Rinck only after

STORE SET ON FIRE
Unsuccessful Attempt to Destroy
Dibbern Hardware Establish.
ment at Milan.
TWO GALLONS OF KEROSENE USED
To Saturate Corner of Building, But
Storm EXtinGuishes Flames
Reward offered.

An unsuccessful attempt was made
to burn the hardware store of c. II.
Dibbern d Son at Milan Saturday
night, the incompleteness of the prep
arations of the miscreant who tried
to work the destruction alone pre-
venting its success.
Some time during Saturday night
the shanty in which the supply of oil
is stored for use in the street lamps
was broken open and a twO-gallon
can of Kerosene was CARED from
ners at the back of the building was
saturated and lighted. The boards
were burned about half through and
then the fire went out, either on ac-
count of the storm or because the
building was damp.
Discovery Today.
No one saw the flames and the
charred place was not discovered till
this morning. If the fire had gone
through the side of the building in
all probability the entire store and
its contents, the most important in
the village, would have been de-
stroyed.
The Messrs. Dibbern have offered a
reward of 500 for Information lead
ing to the arrest and conviction of
the guilty party and there are a num-
Der of clews that offer promising
field for investigation. \ special
Waterman has been employed to pre-
vent another attempt.

EMNET NAY SUED
FOR $4,000 DAMAGE: 5
Peter High Brings Action for
False Imprisonment in
October.

Peter High on Saturday began suit
in the circuit court against Emmett
May and Robert Parker for damages
in the sum of $4,000, resulting from
Emmett May having caused the arrest
of Peter High a few weeks ago on a
charge of larceny. Robert Parker, a
police officer, is drawn into the suit,
he having made the arrest.
In his petition to the first circuit
judge, Peter High claims the amount
named for damages resulting to him
for injury done by the defendants to
his person, character and feelings in
that they did on September 10, last,
"maliciously, unlawfully, forcibly, and
without authority at law, and without
legal process or justification in law,
cause and procure the arrest of said
petitioner, and said defendants did
then and there maliciously, unlaw-
fully, forcibly and without authority
of law, falsely imprison and detain, and
cause to be imprisoned and detained,
the said petitioner, contrary to and
against his will, for period of time of
about thirty minutes, and in making
said arrest, and in so falsely imprison-
ing and OBTAINING said petitioner, said
defendants did treat prisoner with
great indignity and with great unnec-
essary violence and other wrongs did,
all to the damage of said petitioner in
the sum of $4,000"
Peter High represents the Enter
prise Mill Company. May, represent
ing the Pacific Mill Company, had
leased property from the former. It
was alleged that May was in arrears Of
payments of the lease. The matter
was in court, and judgment was fin
ally rendered by Judge Dickey in favor
of Peter High. High was arrested at
the instigation of May, it being alleged
| that he was removing property from
the premises in question

D|SCARDS The
CASSOCk
Father Valentin Now
Wears a Frock
Coat.

Father Valentin, the popular priest
and secretary of the Catholic mission,
surprised his friends yesterday when
he went forth upon the streets in the
black frock coat and trousers usually
worn by the priests in the United
States. While Father Valentin's APP
pearance was somewhat strange, yet
he was quite imposing in his new garb
It seemed odd not to see him in his
black cassock and shoulder cape, and
there were many who expressed regret
that the old familiar cassocks of the
mission were at last to be laid aside
for the new street wear.
Father Valentin has for several
weeks been consulting taiIor's mode
pamphlets, critically looking over the
various cuts of clothes for the clergy.
The short sack coat, the long-tailed
frock, and the various styles of collars
were considered and pondered over
long before he came to a conclusion
and then it was a frock coat.
The other members of the mission
will shortly don the same style of ha-
| biliments. The first to do so was
Bishop Gulstan when he made his tril
| to the Coast few months ago.

as to not interfere with the proper use
and enjoyment of said street by the mu-
nicipality in the construction of a sewer
1t is denied that the city of Scranton
has not by ordinance conferred upon the
defendant, the authority to cause the
pipes of the orator to be removed, and
aver that the provisions of a lawful ordi-
nance of the city, providing for the con-
struction of a sewer upon said streets, are
being carried out in accordance with the
terms of said ordinance; and that ora
tors pipes are located in such a manner
as to make their removal necessary in
order that the sewer may be laid in ac-
cordance with the provisions of said ordi-
nance.
We deny the allegations set forth in
the thirteenth paragraph of plaintiffs
bill. and aver that the legislature of
Pennsylvania has given authority to the
city of Scranton to cause the removal of
orators pipes as laid upon Front street
and Stone avenue, in the city of Scran-
ton, said pipes not being properly located
by the orator, and being so laid as to
interfere with the proper drainage of said
street. thereby interfering with the con-
struction of said sewer and ieopardizing
the health of the community through
which said pipes pass.
We deny the facts set forth in the
fourteenth paragraph of plaintiffs ball,
and aver that said sewer could not have
been planned without great additional ex-
pense so as to have avoided the removal
of orators pipes; that the entire width
of Front street being occupied by the
orators pipes, it would be impossible to
pass down Front street ana locate the
sewer at a grade which would carry off
the sewage, without so interfering with
orators pipes as to compel their removal;
that it was not within the power of the
defendants to ascertain the location of
the orators pipes at a time subsequent
to the building of the sewer; that the
orators pipes were laid subsequent to the
passage of the ordinance authorizing the
construction and the location of the
sewer upon Front street, and that said
sewer could not be constructed after the
laying Of the orators pipes on Front
street to carry out the purposes for which
1t is being constructed without the re-
moval of the orators pipes.
We deny that If the defendants are al
lowed to proceed with said work that ir-
reparable injury will be done to the
plaintiffs property, and if injury be done
to plaintiffs property we submit that
there is adequate remedy at law.

Big Damages Asked.

Walter j. Warple and his wife, Mar
garet Warple, yesterday began an ac-
ton in trespass against the Scranton
Railway company. Each seeks to re-
cover $4,000 damages.
In their declaration of the cause OF
action, filed by Attorney I. II. Burns. it
is set forth that on July 10 last Mrs.
Warple was a passenger on car
travelling through Carbon street. The
car was not brought to a stop as it
approached the Delaware and Hudson
crossing, and as result had narrow
escape from being run down by an en-
gine.
The twenty-siX passengers in the car
became greatly excited. and in the rush
to get from the car Mrs. Warple says
she was thrown to the pavement and
sustained internal and spinal injuries
that are permanent. She asks $4,000
for the injuries she sustained, and Mr..
Warple asks "a similar amount for
medical attendance and the loss of his
wife's services.
