BEHRENS CASE JURY AGREES Ofi VERDICT Decision In Evans Automobile Tragedy Beached After Court Adourned. MEDLER IS OWN LAWYER The jury in the case of Herman Beh rens, manager of the Scranton Iron works, tried on an indictment charging manslaughter, agreed upon a' verdict at 5:30 o'clock last evening and sealed it to report this morning to the court. Behrens was charged with the death of Haydn Leslie Evans, run down and fatally injured by Behrens in an automobile at Washington avanue and Green Ridge street, September 5 last. The case was given to the jury at noon by Judge Harold McClure, of Lewisburg, Snyder county, who is assisting in criminal court here this week. From the time it took the case until after 3 o'clock no word came from the jury room.

A little after 3 o'clock the jury sent messenger to Judge McClure to tell him that the jury desired to hear some of' Behrens' testimony read. The jury was brought in and when Behrens' testimony concerning his running of the machine before he struck Evans was read, the jurors returned to their room and remained there until the verdict was arrived at. Attorney C. L. Hawley, private counsel for the Evans family, closed for the commonwealth.

C. P. O'Malley, who, with C. A. Battenburg and A.

V. Bower defended Behrens, summed up for the defense. Didn't Want a Lawyer. Reuben Medler, of Uniontownv show ed how little he thinks of lawyers when he declined the offer of the court to assign counsel to defend him in his trial on a charge of larceny. Medler was accused of stealing a bob sleigh from a man in Archbald.

"I don't want a lawyer; I can take care of myself," said Medler, and he proceeded to take care of himself by cross examining witnesses and conducting his own defense. He" would have addressed the jury, too, but was waved down by P. E. Benjamin, private counsel for the prosecutor. Medler declared that the sleigh was given to him.

The' commonwealth claimed that he borrowed it, and neglected to return it. Archie Adams, more or less of a po lice character, entered a plea of guilty to charges of forgery and robbery. He forged the name of L. D. Jacobs, of Adams avenue, to a check for $35, and also admitted stealing a gold watch from John Penman, a former county commissioner.

Judge O'Neill sentenced him to the penitentiary for from fifteen months to five years. Frank Yannick and Joseph Vervey anko were convicted of burglary and sentenced to a year each in the county Jail. They broke into the home of Joseph Sommers, in Old Forge, and stole postage stamps, a watch and clothing. The case of Isabella Clarkson against her husband, Andrew Clarkson, which has been on the list for two or three terms, was nol prossed, after a settlement had been reached. It was stated about the corridors of the court house that Clarkson turned over his properties to his wife, who charged him with Intimacy with one Maude Morgan.

fJORE CHUNKSTAKEN IH TEST OF PAVE Ruthven and MacDonald Samples of Asphalt Will Be Analyzed. CROWD SEES THE TEST Investigation of asphalt paves laid within the past two years continued yesterday, when the city council took samples of asphalt laid by the Mac Donald Construction company, the arner Quinlan company and R. C. Ruthven. The probers first visited Bromley avenue and Jackson street, where George W.

Daniels, West Scranton re porter of the Times, pointed out a spot where he said that he had dug with his shoe into the concrete to the solid earth below. Two of Mac Donald's men started to work at the concrete to cut out a section for the purposes of analysis. From 3:25 until 4:25 o'clock the men worked before they were able to loosen apiece twenty five inches by thirty inches. It was pretty hard work. A crowd of citizens witnessed the.

digging. Dr. J. J. Brennen, the South 'Main avenue physician, contended that the concrete didn go to a depth of any thing like six inches," required by the specifications, and got into a heated argument with Gerald MacDonald, president of the MacDonald company, over the contention.

Measurment of the hole from which the asphalt and concrete was taken showed that its depth was eight and one half inches, of which three Inches was asphalt covering and binder and five and one haSf inches concrete. Samples were taken by the council men and the contractor. H. D. Morse, who Mr.

Daniels says made the complaint, was not on hand. The sample of concrete was taken, however, from in front of the Morse residence at Bromley avenue and Jackson street, just opposite from the West Scranton hospital. Small Holes Found. From Bromley avenue the autoing probers went to Jackson street and Rebecca avenue, where a number of small depressions are to be seen in the pavement in front of the store of John L. Jenkins, who testified on Wednesday.

Mr. Jenkins was on hand. Chief Engineer W. A. Schunk said that the holes were probably caused by the use of overheated sand in pav iner and the driving of teams over the pave before the street was really ready for traffic.

This pave was laid last year and is still under maintenance. Chief Schunk directed Mr. MacDonald, on the to have the pave repaired. No Sample Was Taken Here. Mr.

MacDonald and Mr. Jenkins got into an argument as to the responsibility for the condition of the gutter on Rebecca avenue, a question not concerned with paving, as Rebecca avenue has not been paved. Mr. Jenkins also had a complaint on the concrete curb, saying that he would prefer stone curb. In reply to a question from William Wirth, Mr.

Jenkins declared that he had made no protest to the viewers. Gibson street, near the intersection of Washington avenue, which was paved by the Warner Quinlan com pany, was next visited. A sample of asphalt was taken. The sample, it developed, was four inches in thickness. G.

W. Roberts, of 518 Gibson street. took the trouble to come out and tell the councilmen that the property owners believed that the Gibson street pave was the best In the city. There was no representative of the Warner Quinlan company along, and no measurement was made of the concrete. The next stop was on a Ruthven contract, in the 1600 block of Pittston avenue.

A trench had been dug in front of a vacant lot where a house is being built and a sample of the asphalt was taken from alongside the trench. The asphalt and binder was three and one half inches in thickness and the concrete measured in the trench showed a thickness of six and one half inches. R. C. Ruthven, the paving contractor, wasalong with the probers.

CHANGE IN MEETING TIME. The Scranton council. Knights of Co lumbus, at a recent meeting decided to change the regular meetings from the first and third Wednesdays of a month to the first and third Tuesdays. A special meeting of the council was held last night to take action on the death of their late 'brother member, Rev. M.

THIETY 0NE CASES UP Hearings in divorce cases were held yesterday by Judge E. C. Xewcomb, sitting in the Superior court room, and from 9 o'clock in' the forenoon until past 5:30 in the evening wives and husbands seeking annulment of the marriage ties entered and left the court room in a steady parade. The stories they told varied in the details, but all described the futility of efforts toward continued domestic peace. There were tales of barbarous treatment, stories of desertion, evidence of cruelty, scraps and squabbles of husband and wife, all preliminary to the final breaking of relations.

All told there were forty cases set down for hearing and thirty one of them were heard. The court made persistent efforts to patch up one separation and bring the man and woman to make up. This was the case of Louis Warnaka against Annie Warnaka. They have been separated for thirteen years. She now iives in Dunmore.

He is living in Clark's Summit. Warnaka said he was willing to go back living with his wife, and she, who contested the suit, said she was opposed to divorce. The upshot of their attitudes was that Judge Newcomb asked the woman if she would be willing to return to her husband, provided he gave her a home consistent with his means and circumstances and when she said she would he directed the attorneys to see if the matter could not be settled. Temporarily the case has been held up. No Love Lost.

Eugene H. Taylor, of Moscow, told the court that his wife quit him because he. refused to move to a new farm which his wife purchased for $600. He said he was the woman's second husband. "I refused to go lJ cause I had a home at the time, and she then left, saying that her first husband went to her dump and I would nave to go to." Taylor admitted that he has made no efforts to have the woman return and did not care whether she returned.

"Then there was no love lost between you," said the court. "There wasn't," Taylor answered. The cases heard were: Edith Caryl vs. Jesse D. Caryl.
