We Place on Sale This Week the Following Special Bargains: Startling testlmohy was produced yesterday before the Scranton council's committee of Investigation, which met to examine into charges of bribery made by ex-county surveyor Geo. E. Stevenson in relation to the defeat of the Dalton street railway franchise ordinance In council last Thursday night. W. P. Boland, one of the promoters of the Dalton Railway Oo„ testified that Select Councilman David B. Evans, of the North End, demanded of him, in the presence of Mr. Stevenson, $500 for himself and $400 for each of the other ten councllmen. He named the following councllmen: John E. Regan, Thomas O'Boyle, James P. Mialoney, Thomas C. Melvin, John Naegli, Thomas Cosgrove, Edward J. Coleman, Malachi Coyne, John J. McAndrew and Richard Morgan. This testimony was corroborated by Mr. Stevenson. Both men testified that Evans declared that unless the money was forthcoming immediately in gold the ordinance would be either amended to death or defeat. The ordinance was subsequently loaded down with impossible amendments and then the quorum was broken. The Municipal League will prosecute the councllmen. Evans is already under arrest.

A battery of railroad ties carried away the great outer door of the workhouse. What was going on Inside the lockup was not known to the mob, nor did It seem to care. The second, third and fourth doors were battered down by the forward leaders In the attacking party amid the yells and cheers of those who were pressing'forward from the rear. Then the would be lynchers were momentarily baited by a hail of bullets from the inside. A great howl went up from the leaders, but they were pressed forward by those in the rear. More shooting was heard, and there was a scramble to get out, but the braver ones in the attacklug party stood their ground.

We Place on Sale This Week the Following Special Bargains: Startling testlmohy was produced yesterday before the Scranton council's committee of Investigation, which met to examine into charges of bribery made by ex-county surveyor Geo. E. Stevenson in relation to the defeat of the Dalton street railway franchise ordinance In council last Thursday night. W. P. Boland, one of the promoters of the Dalton Railway Oo„ testified that Select Councilman David B. Evans, of the North End, demanded of him, in the presence of Mr. Stevenson, $500 for himself and $400 for each of the other ten councllmen. He named the following councllmen: John E. Regan, Thomas O'Boyle, James P. Mialoney, Thomas C. Melvin, John Naegli, Thomas Cosgrove, Edward J. Coleman, Malachi Coyne, John J. McAndrew and Richard Morgan. This testimony was corroborated by Mr. Stevenson. Both men testified that Evans declared that unless the money was forthcoming immediately in gold the ordinance would be either amended to death or defeat. The ordinance was subsequently loaded down with impossible amendments and then the quorum was broken. The Municipal League will prosecute the councllmen. Evans is already under arrest.

Then the would be lynchers were momentarily baited by a hail of bullets from the inside. A great howl went up from the leaders, but they were pressed forward by those in the rear. More shooting was heard, and there was a scramble to get out, but the braver ones in the attacklug party stood their ground.
