SCRANTON, Pa. Nov. 20 1t was published
here to-day that President Baer OF the
Reading company was induced to declare

after he had been seen by c. ID. Simpson Of
this city, a partner Of Commissioner Wat

had communicated some intelligence about
the standing of the commission to Mr..
Simpson that had bearing upon the action
of the coal presidents.
Mr. Simpson said here to-day that the
story was altogether untrue and most un-
JUS, TO Mr.. Watkins. who was not in New
York at the time stated. The attempted
settlement was abandoned. Mr.. Simpson
said. because the independent operators
were determined that justice should he

THE LIBRARY APPROPRIATION.
Council Decides to Allow the Full Amount
Formerly Appropriated.

The Library appropriation will not
be tempered with, and for the present
year at least the Library will receive
the same amount of fundsas the Coun-
Gil first gave for it's support. At the
meeting of the Common Council Tues
day evening report was sent in by
the Finance committee urging that the
amount of $2413. IS be paid to the direc-
tors of the Library for the uses of the
instityt..-S .dlripg the year. The APP
preparation was discussed for few
minutes but finally ordered by unan-
imous vote.
The action of the Finance committee
came partially as the result of a state
ment of the finances and expenses of
the Library as sent out by the Presi-
dent of the Board of Directors. The
statement showed that during the year
just past the Board had spent $2548. 81
in the operation of the institution, and
it is estimated that during the coming
year the expenses will be slightly in
creased over the expendi lures of last
year. In concluding his statement
Mr.. Strong said that he did not think
that it would be possible for the direc-
tors to keep the Library open if any
reduction should be made in the ap-
preparation.
With the present amount the Board
will have to reduce some of the expen-
ses in order to bring them within the
limit Of the amount allowed. In an
other year it is to be hoped that the
method Of assessing taxable property
will be so changed that sufficient
money for the support of the Library
may be raised with the single mill tax.
At the meeting Of the Board of Di-
rectors this evening it is probable that
some action will be taken to so curb
the expenses as to allow the Board to
pay all bills out of the appropriation.
The people of the city will univer-
sally rejoice that the Council has de-
cided to make no change in the appro-
priation, and their action will be con-
sidered most wise.

STATION A CHURCH.
D wieites Come From Zion and Hold
Services in the Northwestern Station.

D wieites Come From Zion and Hold
Services in the Northwestern Station.
The Hosts of the Christian Catholic
church in Zion invaded Kenosha again
Sunday and held most unique service.
About sixty of the leaders from Zion
came to the city and as soon as they
left the train they decided to hold
service at once and going into the
station they asked station agent Stone
for permission to say prayer in the
station. The permission was granted
without argument and in few min
utes the station had been turned into a
chapel. There were songs and prayers
and the curious crowd of travelling
men and hangers on about the station
seemed to enjoy the service hugely.
s. After the service at the station was
fover the crowd went about the city
and visited the different members of
the church here. The final round up
was at Central Music Hall IN the af-
ternoon when the deacons from Zion
addressed crowd of over three hum
dred people. It is evident that the
Dowie church in Kenosha will not die
with the death of Deacon Kibby, and
some of the followers will be found to
continue the work here.

On July Is, 1898, she was married to
Benton Pratt Arthur, of Chicago
One child, Maysie Jean, daughter,
now nearly three years old, was born
to them. Mrs. Arthur, until the time
of her marriage, nearly four years ago,
lived in the home where she was born,
a dutiful daughter and dearly beloved
by her neighbors and associates. Al
though of fragile constitution her last
illness, followed SO soon by death,
shocked her many friends.
She said: eff it's Gods will, am
ready to go. am not afraid to die.''
Beautiful scenes came before her vision
and heavenly music rang in her ears.
Giving her child into the care of her
parents and with loving goodbye for
all she passed into the world beyond.

CosGRAVE RESIGNS.
Kenosha Man who was Assistant General
Manager of Milwaukee Road Resigns.

C. A. C6sgrave, an old Kenosha boy
who was assistant superintendent of
the Milwaukee road, with headquarters
at Minneapolis, has resigned, the res
ignation to take effect June 1st. The
news was given out semiof6cia1ly Mon
day. This has revived the rumor that
David L. Bush, of Milwaukee, who
also holds the position of assistant
general superintendent, will be ad-
vanced. Inquiry failed to secure con-
frmation of the rumor. There are a
number of other changes in Milwau-
kee under consideration.
Mr.. Cosgrave will go to Europe for
vacation, and on his return will go in
to the land business in st. Paul. He
was born in. Kenosha Oct. Is, 1848, and
is veteran emp1oye of the Milwaukee
road. In July, 1865, he entered the
general Offices in Milwaukee as a tele-
graph operator. He later was train
dispatcher and operator with the Mill
waukee road. After service with the
Northwestern Telegraph company and
the West Wisconsin road he became
superintendent of the Racine and
Southwestern branch of the Mi1wau-
kee road. Later he held the same po-
sition on the Iowa and Dakota division.

Democratic Aldermen at a Caucus De.
eide to put old Police Officers
in Office Again.
OTHER OFFICERS TO BE RETAINED.
Glty Physician spalding, Poor Master Ber-
sioners Urged for Another Term.

The Democratic mem bers of the new
City Council held special meeting
Sunday afternoon for the purpose Of
talking over plans for the organization
of the new Council on next Monday
evening, and from the reports sent out
from the meeting it seems evident that
the Democrats are planning to hold
things in pretty close check. All the
members of the new Council with one
exception were present at the meeting.
Many of the members are in favor of
adopting central position and divid-
ing the offices by allowing few Re
publicans to slip in but others are in
favor Of holding the strict party lines
and insisting that the men favored by
the Democratic Aldermen be placed in
office.
1t is stated that the Aldermen have
already made out slate of officers
which they hope to have elected as soon
as the new Council is organized. This
slate includes police, fremen, street
commissioners, city physician and poor
master. It is claimed that the Demo-
Gratis will insist on the retention of ali
the present members of the police force.
Such a move seems, to the unbiased
citizen, to be an unwise one as several
qualified and besides matters of quail
fcations there are other things to be
considered before the old officers are
reelected. The Republicans have as
yet made no suggestion in regard to
the selection of the members of the
police force but they have announced
that they are willing to meet the DEM
ocratic members half way and do their
best to put good men on the force re-
CARELESS of politics. The Mayor will
of course, appoint Chief of Police
and it seems certain that the present
Chief will be retired.
Several candidates for the Office have
been suggested but Mayor Pfennig has
rot as yet announced any appointment
and it is not probable that the selection
will be made before next week.
The members of neither party are
seeking to secure any change in the
present fire department officials; they
being entirely satisfactory to all.
Street Commissioners Carr and
Krautkramer are slated for re-elec-
ton by the Democrats but it is prob
able that other candidates will be in
the field before the election.
DR.. John B. Spalding is said to be
the choice of the Democrats for the
office of City Physician and Health
Officer and Joseph Berns is slated for
another term as Poormaster.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1902-04-10

was ordered to provide an ordinance to
make the vacation possible. It is
hardly thought that the ordinance will
be passed, as many of the members of
the Council showed their opposition to
the plan of vacating the street.
The Council decided to make a
change in connection with the paving
OF Milwaukee avenue by putting in
sand stone curb instead of lime stone
curb, as the contract called for. The
change will result in small saving
for the people interested, and 10 the
opinion of experts will give the street
a much better and more lasting curb.
The report of the Poormaster showed
that seventy-one people were receiving
whole or part support from the city.
The people residing in the neighbor-
hood OF Balm Park presented petition
asking for a change in the grade of
the park in order that a number of
large maple trees might be saved from
destruction. The matter was referred
to the Committee on Buildings and
Grounds with power to act and the
change in grade will undoubtedly be
made.
The withdrawal of the petition of
z. G. Simmons asking for the vaca-
ton Of portion of old Main street
was received and placed on file.
There being no further business, the
Council adjourned to meet on next
Monday evening, at which time the
new Council will be installed,

NV ORDERS IN FORCE.
Northwestern Railway ofhcials are Given
Lesson in Politeness.

Promptly at noon Sunday the Chi
cago & lsorthW Western railway adopted
new rules and regulations for the gov
eminent of its employees. New run
ming rules, new time tables, new tech
nical names; and new code of polite
ness vert into force. These the Of
fcials ofAthe road framed, with the OBJ
ject of iGaugurating model regime,
and to insure a thorough trial every
employe has been examined on his
ability to carry them out to the letter.
The Old and familiar vernacu1ar of
The rails has been abolished to a large
extent. The snappy remarks of con-
ductors and brakemen have given
place to a politeness that would grace
the select circles of a college town.
The nuisance of yelling news agents
has ceased, and to insure no mistake
in stations each will be called out sew
eral times before it is reached. So
near is the etiquette to resemble that
Of the home, that conductors and Of
flcials are to remove their hats when
hey pass through par1or and dining
cars.
The rules Of conduct on board pass
senger train-now called strain of
superior c1ass'-are summed up in the
new code of rules as follows:
1T is especially enjoined on pas
senger employees to be polite and cour-
teous to all. Coarse and vulgar
language from any one employed on
this road is positively prohibited,
under the penalty of prompt dismissal.
Passengers must never be elected
from the cars for any cause except at
a regular open station. Trainmen
must not eject women or children of
tender age; and any person unattend-
ed in such condition of mind and
body as 20 be incapable of caring for
himself must be placed in the custody
of the nearest station agent"

McC arron's ma ioritY.

Outside Of the canvass of the votes
there was little business of interest
transacted at the meeting of the Coun-
Gil. There seemed to be a tendency
among the Aldermen to leave the Old
troubles over for the new Council to
wrest1e with and few matters of i'm
portance were brought up.
The usual annual reports of the diff
ferent appointive officers were re-
ceived and ordered placed on file. The
report of the Chief of Police is noticed
in another column. It is interesting
to note the report of Street Commits
sioner Krautkramer. of the North side,
who reports that during the year just
past $769.85 has been spent in caring
for the streets in his division of the
city. The Commissioner of the South
division did not file report of his
work during the year.
The vacation of Summer street came
up for lively discussion, in which
Alderman Tu11y suggested that GER
tain members of the Council were al
tempting to prevent the vacation Of
the street on account persona rea
sons. Even the e1oquence of Alder
man Tully did not move the opposition
to the vacation and the City Attorney
