VERDICT FOR Ss.ooo.
William IT. Edwards, Late of the New

William IT. Edwards, Late of the New
 York Sun, Awarded That Sum.
 New York, April 1s.-William IT. Edwards, printer, was awarded verdict in the United States circuit court against the Sun for $S,000. The suit grew out of the Sun lockout in 1899. when that newspaper dis charged its union compositors and filled their places with non-union men.
 Edwards, according to his represen- tations, was employed by w. M. Laf- fan, at that time business manager of the Sun, as superintendent of printing t a salary of $5,000 per annum. At the time of the strike Edwards left Philadelphia with about one hundred non-union printers, bringing them here by boat to take the places of the locked-out men. The officers of Typo graphical union No G. known as Big Six" heard of their coming, met the boat down the bay and succeeded in getting all of the printers except nine- teen to desert Edwards and join the union. After the nineteen men land- cd emissaries from Big Six" induced a dozen more to join their ranks and Edwards reached the Sun office with a half dozen men. He succeeded in ob- taining only few more non-union men to work, and after q few days employment the Sun management dis charged Edwards. The latter at once brought action against the Sun to re- cover two years salary, and in the United States circuit court was award ed S4.000 by jury. This was ap- pealed and the higher tribunal re- yersed the finding and ordered a new trial
 Mir Paddock, the present business manager, w. c. AIcCloy and other members of the Suns executive staff at the present trial testified that Ed wards was incompetent and did not properly discharge the duties of su- perintendent of printing. Edwards produced letter from the Sun employ ing him at S50O0 per annum for per- iod of two years, and swore that he had held similar positions on other prominent newspapers and that he was discharged without cause or rea- son. The jury. after deliberating on the matter for half an hour. returned verdict giving Edwards $S,000 dam ages.

BOARD OF FINANCE.
Some of the Bills Held Back for Fur

ther Consideration.
 The board of finance held a meetjno last night all by their lonesome in the mayors office. All the members were present. 1t was impossible to get n line on what they did, bat it was hint ed that the object of the session ha- hind closed doors was to give the mem bers an opportunity to have q good cry over Dr Frost's bill before gettino together under the eye of the renorters ana also to have chat regarding 'the failure of the committee annointed some tune ago to confer with inc board Of health relative to appointing physician to care for the patients at the isolation hospital to impress tha health board favorably in that direc- ton. u-i
 Alter laying plans for a future naet- Ing to take place before the aldermen meet Monday night, the board enerpad rom the darkness and sat down of fbe pig table In the clerks office. oll on. paren'iy m good spirits, and com nuenced 10 do business. Mayor hiluuH reported for the committee appolnted to confer with the health board about employing physician at the hospital. He said a conference had been held at which the commtttae made known to representatives of tha health board what the board of fi- nance thought advisable. but that so Tar as he was aware nothing had been done towards carrying out such m lnea. The report was accepted and the committee continued until Monday night when the board will hold m ad- 1ourned meeting for the pfruosa of preparing resolution to be nresen+od to the aldermen setting forth tbe noards views on the smallpox nues tlon ana offering some suggestions Wnlch Will set some folks to think Ing After this we may expect to 500 tug of. war contest between the al- dermen and the board of health. with Mayor Kilduff as referee.
 Tax Collector Thoms reported that the loss in lis office in the fro amounted to S1.00o with $500 jnspr- ance. and that S10O of the loss wos city property. Two bills for furniturn submitted to the board by Mir Thoms were ordered paid. but a bill of s3e Tor alterations in his desk was not ap- proved.
 After the bulk of the bills had heen approved the mayor took up small bunch of papers and kept pulling them out from under the rubber band until but three were left. And then. loolS- ing solemn as if the subject hadn't been referred to at the star chamber session, his honor remarked that if there were no objections the bills of pr Frost. John Mccarthy and Harry Moses would remain over until Mon- day. All the other health board bills were approved, including one of $10O from Hugh McAllister, formerly nurse at the isolation hospital. NTcAllister's bill was cut down S5 by the health board and referring to this Mayor Kill duff laughed and then said: .'Well. I suppose they made up their minds to economize in some direction and thought they'd save S5 there. Of course 1t looks pretty hard to refuse to pay man $5 for preparing body for burial and then approve $100 consul tation fees"
 The treasurer was instructed to bor- row $15.000 to meet current expenses.
 The board adjourned until Monday night.

REPUBLICAN TICKET.
For Congress, Fifth District:
CHARLES N. FOWLER,
OF UNION.
FOWLER RE-NOMINATED.

Congressman Charles Newell Fow-
Ter has been nominated for his fifth
term in Congress, though now on
account of redistricting the State,
from new district. AS Mr.. Fowler
said in his speech:
This is going to be great dis
trict because of the manifold indus
tries in it. The iron ore is taken
from the ground here, in another
part it is fashioned into a needle
point. There are various and many
purs uits. The diversity of the soil
makes the people most cosmopolitan.
81 am party man. believe in
organization. / want party organi-
cation in every district. | don't be-
in this fight. want to serve every
man in the district, but my country
above all. :"
We believe that this district, which
Mr.. Fowler says is to be great one,
has secureu in him great represen-
tative.
The experience of his former con-
stituerts agrees with the testimony
of his colleagues in Congress that he
is honest earnest, active, straight
forward and able.
The county needs such men in
Congress and every Republican and
every other believer in sound money
should work as earnestly to return
Mr.. Fowler as if he lived in Dem
ocratic district. Mr.. Fowler himself
urges the fight.
