B. ed of In Graft Trap Burgess, Chief of Police and Officer of Forest City in Embarrassing Position. Burgess John Franko, Chief-of-Police Paul Blacksmith, and Policeman Joseph Kost, of Forest City, will all lose their jobs as a result of a trap set by Detective M. A. Rafter, into which they fell Friday, according to the Scrantonian of Sunday last, which says 'The men were caught red- handed taking 'hush' money, after they had arrested a trio of supposed bootleggers.

"After signing confessions, in which fhey are said fo have admitted their guilt, the three officials were permitted to go, but it is said that not only will warrants be is sued for their arrest, but that the men responsible for the trap will insist that all three resign ttieir positions. There has been talk for some time that the burgess and chief-of-police of Forest City were "shaking down" bootleggers, and a number of citizens of the town engaged the Rafter Detective Agency to investi gate the case. Rafter set a trap for the officials, into which they are claimed to have fallen. Thursday night a truck with three operatives of the Rafter agency and a whiskey barrell filled with water left Scranton for Forest City. Mr.

Rafter and four otuer of his men had tasen up nxe.i posis in Forest Citv to watch the truck and the movements of the police force when it arrived there. he truck with the three pseudo whiskey run ners ana the barrel of water, puliea out of Carbondale, Friday morning, at one o'clock, and a lit le later it rolled into rorest City. "The truck had barely reached the confines of the quiet, little borough, according to the detectives, when Chief Blacksmith and Officer Kost appeared in the street and held it up. Officer Kost clutched a revolver in his hand to show that he meant business. The officer and the chief are alleged to have board ed the truck and placed the alleged bootleggers under arrtst.

They were taken to the lock-up, together with the barrel supposed to contain whiskey. The barrel was removed from the truck and placed in a cell. Immediately alter the of ficers held up the truck there was talk of a settlement and after the alleged bootleggers were locked in cells there was further talk of 3 settlement. The surroundings in the borough wckup wcw anything but pleasant and the detectives acting the role of whiskey runners. complained about cootie and said they would like to get "Olheer Kost is sain to nave, run to the home of Burgess Franko to have the latter come to the lockup to talk things over with the sup posed bootleggers.

Th; burgess was too sleepy, the message came back. About 4 o'clock yesterday morning Kost took trie th-ee prison ers to the home ot Burgess ranko it is stated, and told the burgess the men wanted to talk to him. But there was no talking done at that time and the three men were again taken back to the lockup, the detectives say. "Later the confiscated barrel and the car were taken to garage, and the officers agreed to meet the supposed bootleggers later. They met, and Burgess Franko was in on the meeting.When the proposition of settling the case was put up to him, he said lie left (he matter entirely to Blacksmith and Kost, and he was agreeable ti anything that satisfied I hem.

Thereupon, the supposed bootleggers said they paid Blacksmith and Kost each The money was marked. "The party then started for the garage, where the truck had been I stored, and the defectives gave the tip for which Rafter arid the other men on guard had been waiting.

that nn nf t.h "his- units" tlie mighty enterprise which has developed Johnson City and Endi coft and Union. The Endicott-Johnson company an option on the tannery and entire plant of the N. H. Parke Leather company at Great Bend. The Parke company is specializing chamois skin tanning, and making a large line of novelties.

A valuable part of the Parke Company is a spring of water which is peculiarly adapted to leather tanning. In fact it is said that there is other spring like it and that the Parke Company has a monoply on a certain grade of tanning. The Parke Company in tanning chamois skins, uses large quantities cod oil, and when this has been used in chamois tanning it is desirable for ordinarv leather fanning. and concerns like the E-J buy normous quantities of it. This would also add to the E-J property.

Should thi E-J company take over the Great Bend plant, it would mean big boom for the town. The tannery would be enlarged and several hundred people Would b3 given employment.
