Supreme Court Decision Gives a Death Blow to the Departments of Awards and Law. THE CUT CHARTER DEFECTIVE, In That It Prorides for the Creation of Several New Municipal Offices by Cltj Councils. POLICE MAGISTRATES ARE ALL RIGHT. DuTermeu of Opinion en tie CcnstitnticMlity ef CsnUve ItgislsUoa. The general opinion among .city officials is tbat while tbe enactment of curative legislation may provide a way for the col lection of unpaid assessments on street im provements, tbere are other equally serious results of the Supreme Court decision, the remedy of which is not yet apparent to them. The full text of Justice Williams' opinion in the appeal of George J. Whitney was received at 9 o'clock yesterday morn ing at the office of the Prothonotary ot the Supreme Court. The case is based largely on the unconstitutionality of tbe city charter. The opinion deal's at length with the various sections of the charter whose legality were questioned. One of the most important positions of the opinion is in reference to the illegal manner in which Councils hare created new departments of the city government. Con cerning this, Justice Williams says: Mutt Be the Same for Each Class. The eighteenth section authorizes the Coun cils to create new departments in the city gov ernment, and define their powers. This cannot bo sustained. The Legislature mnst settle the question of government for each class of cities, and it must be tbe same for each and every member of each class. No city in any class can change the number of, or tbe distribution of powers among tbe departments into which its government it cast by the Legislature. If this was not so, no two cities in the same class would long retain the same form of municipal government and general legislation, for the class would, on many subjects, become im possible. It is generally conceded tbat this knocks out both the Department of Awards and tbe Department ot Law. The act of Legis lature does not provide for either of these. Controller Morrow was asked last night whether this would not be the case. "That is the only construction I can put on tbe decision," he answered. "The act of Assembly for cities of tbe second class pro vides for three departments Public Works, Public Safety, and Charities. The De partment of Awards and the De partment of Law were both created by Councils. This decison shows that Councils had no power to do this, and hence tbe two departments have no legal standing and no longer exist. Of course we will have to have a City Attorney, bnt be will no longer be tbe head of the legal de partment, and the three assistants will prob ably have to go." Things Badly Mixed U? at Present. "What will be done about the work of the Department of Awards?-' "I cannot say as to that Some provision will have to be made for th..- awarding of contracts, bnt things are too badly mixed up as yet to say just bow it will be done. Tbe Su preme Court is certainly weeding out our gov ernment in rapid style. We have scarcely got ten over tbe effect of the sudden stoppage of tbe Board of Viewers when here comes the death-blow to two of our departments." Tbe rumor that the decision had knocked out tbe police magistrates was not given much cred ence about City Hall. After tbe decision bad been carefully rcad.it was seen that the system of police magistrates in this city is in accordance with the law. In commenting on tbe seventh section of tbe charter relative to these magis trates, the opinion says: 'It professes to ennrer upon five magistrates the right to exercise for certain purposes the same police powers as are possessed by the Mayor. Police powor of the Mayor is not di minished. Tbat remains as before, but for cer tain purposes five magistrates have the right to exercise the same police powers. Tbe Legisla ture may properly confer it upon a newly created office by general words for tbat reason. But if tbe Mayor exercise) powers created and conferred by statute in addition to tho general police power of which we have spoken, such statutory -.owers could not be conferred on tho magistrates by such general words as are cm Dloved in this section. It may be tbat tnc May or's police powers are only such as fall properly within the general or common law meaning of tbe words. If so, we do not see why this section may not stand." Only Possessed of Police Power. "Our police magistrates are only possessed of common police power," said Mayor Gourley, "and therefore perfectly legal, as the Justice says." Justice Williams sets tbe minds of tbe Chiefs of the Departments of Public Works, Public Safety aud Charities at test by saying tbat their departments are safe, although their powers arc not complete. The sections creat ing these departments are treated as follows: "These sections do undertake tn center pow ers previously exercised by a number of officers whose offices'are discontinued, upon the beads of departments created by tbe act. It under takes to extend to these few officers all the acts of Assembly relating to tbe duties and powers of all these unnamed and abolished offices without even a reference to their dates, their titles, or their subject matter. To understand what was, and what was not within their con trol, it would be necessary to digest all the local laws relating to all the officers whoso functions are thus gathered un ana dropped into tho hands of the 'beads of departments.' This mode of defining the power of a newly created officer is in violation of the letter and the spirit of the Constitutional provision aud cannot bo sustained. "The heads of departments are not wholly stripped of official functions and authority by this holding, for in the fifteenth, sixteenth and seventeenth sections certain general powers in their respecuvo departments are conferred upon them within which they may properly act and bind the city. It is nevertheless true that supplementary legislation is needed In order tbat these officers may bo able to assume the importance in the management of municinal affairs which ihe system of government. for cities of tbe second class plainly contemplat es." Confident of Getting Curative Laws. The question of securing curative legislation is one that will probably he uppermost in the minds of city officials for some time. While the latter aro confident of securing it. a great many others have grave doubts as to whether the Legislature can lawfully pass such an act. Among those who feel these doubts are some of the better legal authorities. M. A. Woodward still refuses to express an opinion as 10 me scope oi tne aecision, as ho sas ho hasn't read it in Its entirety, and could not talk intelligently. Tbe qnery, however, bad tbe effect to start a discussion in which a number of prominent attorneys took Dart, and from the talk it was learned tbat tbe prevailing impression was tbat no curative legislation would stand, so that streets improved already are in the same muddle as they were when tho Mt. Washington street cascswere decided and are likely to continue so. as any at tempt to collect will be resisted. It was also developed that they do not stand as did the streets improved under tbe Penn avenue act. Ip those tbe liens filed will follow tbe properties to tbe end of our government, and may become a puzzle for Macaulay's New Zealanderof tho future, but in tbe present case no Hens will lie, and any at tempt to collect will be opposed, as it is not expected that abutters' sense of justice is suffi ciently developed to make tbeui pay claims tbat cannot bo enforced. These attorners unanimously agreed tbat the city cannot fall back on any previous laws. Finance Committee Hot Yet Met. Cbief Bigelow has mado an estimate of tbo improvements yet unpaid for, and finds they amount to 1,200,000. Should tbe effort at se curing curative legislation fail, this will all have to bo paid with tbe city's money. It is stated tbat by raising tbe milage and paying 100,000 a year the debt could be cleared up in three years. The Finance' Committee will take this matter into consideration. A meeting will be held very soon. When W. A. Magee, a member of tbe committee, was ap proached yesterday on tbe matter he looked very much worried and replied: "Why don't you give us a chance to look up this matter and see where wo standi Every thing is mixed up. We will hold a meeting be fore many days." . t DR. HOLLAND ELECTED. The Pastor of Bellcfield Church Given the Refusal of the Chancellorship of the "Western University A Sketch of His Career Not Yet Accepted. Eev. W. J. Holland, D. D., Ph. D.. of the Bellefield Presbyterian Chnrch, was yesterday unanimously elected to the Chan cellorship of the Western University, at a meeting of the Board of Trustees, to fill the vacancy caused by tbe death of Prof. M. B. Goff, some months ago. The meeting con vened in the Y. M. C. A. building, under tbe presidency of James B. Scott, and was well at tended. Most of. the old board and three new members were present, as well as Mayors Gour ley and Wyman, who are on tbe board by virtue Chancellor-Elect Holland. of tbeir offices. T. D. Carnahan was elected to tbe board to fill tbe vacancy caused by tbe death of his lather, tne late it. a. uarnanan. . Tbere were lour gentlemen placed in nomina tion for tbe office of Chancellor. The names of tbe unsuccessful were reserved. Dr. Holland was given a unanimous vote. A committee consisting of Rev. J. C. "White, Rev. E. P. Conanand Charles J. Clark was appointed to wait upon Dr. Holland and formally notify him of bis election. Subsequently the com mittee communicated with the reverend gen tleman and appointed to meet him tn-dav for tbe purpose. Tbe salary attached to the office is 2,500 a year. Prof. Parker, tho instructor in French and Spanish, was formally accredited to his position, which he has heretofore been filling temporarily. Rev. Dr. Holland was born at Kingston, Jamaica, on August 1C, 1818. He is a lireal de scendant on bis mother's side of tbe Rev. Krancis Doughty. an English Fresbyterlan. who preached the first sermon in tbe English language on Manhattan Island, at "the Bat tery." in 1613. Dr. Holland's father was a .Moravian missionary, and) a descendant of John Holland, one of the first settlers of Salem, N. C, and who himself was a descend ant of Henry Holland, the London publisher, whose work served as a target for the satire of Pope. Dr. Holland graduated from the Mora vian Theological Seminary in 1SG7. and at Am herst College in 1SCJ, and from Princeton Theo logical Seminary in 1874.

The reverend gentleman Is a member of a number of learned societies and has a wide reputation as a naturalist. Dr. Holland was asked yesterday whether bo would accept the Chancellorship. He said that he would reflect seriously on the proposition before deciding. OH THE EOAD TO GEHEHHA. What a Suburban Preacher Thinks of Those Who Play Progressive Euchre. Eev. J. A. Dontbett threw a hand grenaiej some say a bombshell, during his last dis course in the United Presbyterian Church in Coraopolis, and, though no person was killed outright. It seems from the squirming that some people were badly crippled. The village is somewhat given over to what some people call ungodly pastimes in tbe shape of dancing and progressive euchre playing, and these pas times came in for denunciations. It was stated on a railway train that Rev. Mr. Douthctt said regarding them: "Wlth,your Burns' Hall balls and progressive euchre parties, you are on tbe broad road to Gehenna." Tbese may not bave been his exact words, as the narrator said he had not heard the dis course himself, but had gotten his version from ouo who was preent. The audience was some what divided in opinion, some thinking that tbe diversions denonnced kept some people from worse associations, and others wero in clined to side with tho clergyman. Others, again, regard the controversy as a relief from the everlasting discussion of local politics, which forms so large a share of tho Staple of village discussion. BOWLES IS NOT WORKED. The Wabash Agent Says He Is Not Charged With Offering Rebates. W. L. Bowles, of Cloveland, Commercial Agent for tho Wabash, registered at the Mo nongahela House last night Some of the Western newspapers havo been charging him with offering rebates to secure business, which is against the inter-Stato law.

I "WFSU CLr1 ' FIYEHPNDEED HOURS The Life of a Kew Electric Arc Lamp Recently Invented, and CONTROLLED BY A'LOCALCOMPAKY. A Settlement of the Oorkw orkers' Difficulty! Expected lo-Day, CAPITAL ASD INDUSTRIAL K0TKS In a small office on an upper floor of the Eisner & Phillips building has been guarded with tbe utmost secrecy for several months, an invention which, if successful, promises to take the place ot the arc electric lamp now in use. The lamp is invented by J. W. Ells, the patent agent, and has'been pronounced by all electricians who have examined it, aa a superior apparatus to any yet placed on tbe market A patent has beeu secured, and the lamp has passed into tbe hands of a company organized with a capital stock of $500,000, with the stock all subscribed for, which will apply for a charter in a few days. Among those who are interested in the enter prise are J. W. Ells, W. S. Bostwick, Manager ot tbe Pittsburg Brass and Copper Company, Limited, and Louis Kramer. These gentlemen have been working for the past year experi menting on the lamp, working out the Imper fections In its construction and improving it in every possible particular. The claims set fortb for the new lamp are tbat it will produce a stronger light than the ordinary arc lamp, that it is more simple in Its construction and cheaper as to cost. But its greatest point of excellence is its endurance. By repeated practical experiments it has been demonstrated tbat the new lamp will burn continually for 00 hours without any attention or care, and without a change of car bons. As compared with the common arc lamps in this respect, its advantages are more than flf ty-folu. This prolonged endurance is made possible through the peculiar construction of the car bons, wbich, Instead of pencil-shape, are made in tbe lorms of miniature emery wheels, four and eight incbes in diameter, one wheel of each size being used on every lamp. They are placed at right angle, the larger over tbe bmaller one, and bv an automatic electrical arrangement enclosed in the lamp they are kept in constant motion. In this manner a carbon Is furnished con taining more than 50 times as much substance as there is in the ordinary pencil carbon, and tbe lamp is tbus supplied for a much longer pe- riou oi lime man tne present lamps can De without continual attendance. Mr. Kramer was seen yesterday In regard to the new invention. He said they expect to soon place the lamp on the market, and he i! thor oughly satisfied they have a lamp that will eclipse anything yet in use in every respect. The stock of the new company has all been sub scribed for, and it is tho purpose of tbe concern to begin work soon on a plant for the manu facture of the lamp. HAED TO BUILD THE EOAD. Too Many Curves or Too Steep Grade In the Way of a Railway. It is said that the Sbousetown. Clinton and Frankfort Springs Railroad will not be ago not, at least, as a standard gauge road. John Wilson, a civil engineer, states that he has been told that even by winding around to the extent of making the road two miles longer than the original survey tbe grade would still be 130 feet to the mile, and this is too heavy for a standard gauge road. Whether tbere was any talk of matting a narrow gauge road be could not say. W. K. Gillespie, one of tbe owners, says that although tbe option has expired he has beard nothing further. Ho says the troublo is not grade, but tbat the curves are too sharp for a standard gauge road. COKE GETTING HIGHEE. Manufacturers Aro Anxious About the Re sult of tho Coke Strike. As tbe prolonged coke' strike continues the price of that manufacturing material gradually gets higher, and the manufacturers are begin ning to get anxious about the result Tho strike of tho 12,000 or 13,000 coke workers sns- pends production at over 16,008 coke ovens, leaving only one plant of about 400 ovens in operation in tbe entire Connellsville region, and tbus conveniently offsets the prlce-de-jpressing shutdown of tho hi '.it furnaces. A manufacturer said yesterday that it looked very much as though the coke operators were anxious to continue the strike until tbey could have the price fixed high enough to make un for all the losses they have sustained through it. NO TEOUBLE EXPEC1ED, The Corkworkers' Difficulty W1U Be Settled To-Day. The Corkworkers' Assembly met last night, and under a special dispensation elected new officers, as follows: Master Workman, M.

Mr. Wight said the Western roads were suf fering. Tho western divisions of the B. & O. are doing a good business, but In this territory the full force of the coke strike is felt. A SAVING IN ETJEL, An Allegheny Engineer Talks of the Ad vantage of Sinoke Consumers. George McLnckio, a practical engineer of Allegheny, who is greatly interested on the subject of smoke consumers, in speaking of the use of snch apparatus, said yesterday: "Complete combustion is invisible, but it is an easy matter to discover the places wbere steam is tho motive power, by the large vol umes of black smoke coming from the stacks, it is well known that this is nothing but car buretted hydrogen gas, set. free by tbe com bustion of the coal in the furnace, and if not consumed It Is just so much fuel wasted, and the best portion of it It i a saving in the cost of fuel to consume smoke."

The Pittsburg committee of freight agents met yesterday to fix np the iron rates on the basis of 15 centi to Chicago, tbe reduction going into effect March 30.

At tbe Lake Erie office It was stated that the merchandise shipments are better so far this year than Ian, but coke and coal have not made much of a showing. Last season navigation opened very early, but this year the cold weather has interfered with the coal traffic. Tbo recent storms prevented boats from going from Cleveland to Detroit. How ever, the Lake Erie people claim their coal record for the last two months is ahead of last year's shipments. As soon as the lakes are open a heavy coal traffic is anticipated. In ine passenger line ueneral passenger Agent A. . Clark said tbat tbe local business was better than last year, and the prospects lor the summer are good, unless the weather should be cold and tbo iron and glass makers go out on a strike.

EEVISION OF EOAD LAWS. Arthur Kirk Reads a Prospective BUI Be fore Local Engineers. A. E. Hunt presided over the regular meet ing of the Western Pennsylvania Engineers' Society last night Arthur Kirk read the pro posed bill he had drafted for a revision of tho road laws of tbe State, and which appeared ex clusively in The Dispatcu some time ago. The bill provides for the election of a State Superintendent of roads who wonld have full control over all matters relating to the con struction, management location or relocation of all public roads and bridges outside of cities and boroughs. He would bave an assistant in each connty. Tho work of constructing good roads throughout the State would be paid for by issuing 50,000,000 of four per cent 20 year bonds every year for ten years, the money to be attributed among tbe counties according to acreace. Mr. Kirk thinks that road-making is a trade, and a farmer has no moro right to be selected to build a roid than he has to put up a public building. The roads now cost the fanners from 81,000,000 to !3,000,000 a year ana as every resident of the State was benefited by good roads all should pay for them. TO BCATTEB THE MONEY. Senate Pension Agencies to Be Gronped Under tho Kew Law. Pension Commissioner Green B. Raum is still in the city attending to some private, busi ness, but more particularly, he said last even ing, to get a few days' rest away from Wash ington, The new plan of paying tbo pension money monthly Instead of every three months will soon go into effect. Tbe agencies in the United States will be divided into six groups of three each. Mr. Kaum said he had not yet announced them, bnt tho object is to have each as remote as possible in order to scatter the monevovera wide territory. Under the old plan $-21,000,000 were paid out every three month", and the money, as a rule, went into ono section. By the now arrangement tho payments will be SI 1.000,000 monthly, but the grouped agencies will receive their allowances every three months, as of yore. Talking "With Creditors. F. M. Riegel, cashier of tho defunct bank at Findlay. was at the Duquesne yesterday. He held a lengthy conference with J. A. Brown, of Brooklyn, and George F. Hadley, of Newark. N.

Had the matter come to the minds of the city officials in time a celebration in honor of the event would hare been held, hut nobody thought of it until too late. Mayor Gourley is much .disappointed about tbe mat ter, as he has. a special liking for anniversary exercises.' ' "Since we did not think of tho event until a few days ago," said be, "tbere was no time to prepare any sort of ceremony, but I wonld like to see the business men and others do honor to tbe occasion by decorating their buildings."

One of tbe most notable figures of tbe city's early davs was James Ross, tbe first President of Select Council. Tbe first session of tbe Allegheny County Courts admitted bim to the bar. He was twice elected to the United States Senate, was a member of the Constitu tional Convention of 1790. and was three times a candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania. Ross township.
