THE BRIDGE SITE QUESTION
City Solicitor Torrev's Opinion
Caused a Lively Debate It Was Re
ferred to a Committee for Consid
erationCouncilman Connell Makes
an Effort to Secure a Five-Cent
FareOther Eusincss Transacted.
Select council held a long and some
what noisy session Inst evening. The
first business was the readiug of a
communication from the mayor
nominating tbe uew patrolmen.
They were confirmed after an effort
had been made to refer tbe nomination!!
to committee. The main Hiibject of
wrangle, however, grew out of the
city solicitor's opiniou in reference to
the changing of the location of the
Liuden street bridge.
The uew policemen appointed by the
mayor are Reese (1. Jones, of the
Twenty-first ward; Samuel E. Sloat, of
the Seventeenth ward, mid C. A. Perry,
of the First ward .
After the names had ben read it was
moved that they ho refvrred to com
mlttee. The motion was lost and a
motion to cousider the nominations
was agreed to by a two-thirds vote, all
of the members being present mid re
ponding to their names. Tbe Domina.
tious were then confirmed.
A communication from the mayor
appointing police officers us follows,

ABOUT ritK BsUMI SITE.
The opinion of City Solicitor Torrey
in reference to talked of change of
the location of the Linden street bridge
to Mulberry strset, furnished in com
pltancM with a resolution paaaad by
councils rcqasatlng it, was then rsa I
by clerk Lsvelle. Tl o city solicitor
stated it as his opinion that if the
change lu site Is made the city won! I
likely be restrain I from appropriat
ing of the bridge anv part of th" pro
posed loah of f.'.Vi.OOO. In other re
spects there is nothing to prevent any
change of site that Councils
may deem advisable by new
ordinance. The opinion is btsed on
the act of assembly regulating the
manner of increasing Die maimer of in
dettsdiiess of municipalities and the
ordinance and notice under which the
consent of the ponle wis obtained
The opinion proceeds at length to show
that no substantial change can be tn i
witbont making nugatory an I mean
tnrless tbe act of sstnlily
Mr KellOW moved that the opinion
be re'eired o the slreits and bridge.

Mr. R ail argned that there was
nothing to prevent the change, but in
cissit arofe mssio none of the 350,000
tould l use I. He doubted if the
people of H Vila Park would vol for

the idea of loeating the structure be

Mr m in agreed with the con

seutuiistits should be exprsssej !
did not like to be placed lutiiapisi-
tion of bbetroetiog Um bridge that
had been the hue and cry ever sines
the bridge at Linden street was first
agitated. There were more than one
thousand reasons why the change
should be Iliad

Mr. ('lemons then proceeded to give
the dlfferonOO in the grades, length of
bridge n iinred at the two points, au I
advanced otfatt arguments. Me sail
people o( Hrd Park wanted a viaduct
oVCf tbo Delaware, Lackawnniia and
Western at West Laoknwanna avenue
mid that a bridge built higher up than
I. in 100 street would provide for the
people of llyd Park and Providence
A great deal more of talk was in
dulged in and the residents of Swet
land street came in for no small slur
of ctnsiire because of their "stiffness"
as one iiuinte-r expres ' 1 it Mr. LonOI
laid that J 1 .'l"l. was already demanded
for options and still that sum was Ml
enough.
A vote was taken on an amendment
to receive and fill the opinion an I it
was lost, it was then referred to the
streets and bridges committee,
wit rot city nnrmra,
Mids for doing the city printing for
the ensuing year were received from
'1 hi: BORANTOM Thiiicnk and the Scran
ton Truth and referred to the commit
tee on printing.
liids for grading Delaware street be
tween Washington and Sanderson ave
lines wire received from Max Phillips
and Muldoon - Howie. The former
wanted tl.llTJ 7(i and the latter $l.u:l7.
Referred to streets and bridges commit
tee The committee on streets and bridges
reported favorably a number of ofdlD
ances, but did not report on the Roar
ing Hrook bridge ordinance, whioh
angered Mr. Manley, who demand 1
to know why no report was made on
the ordinance. A motion to tako the
ordinance out of the hands of the com
mittee prevailed after much wrangling.
The Linden street bridge wua also in
cluded. The vote stood I t to 7.
Concurrent business followed, after
which a-number of ordinances and res
olutions were adopted. Mr. Connell
offered the following, which was
adopted :
Whereas, The ordinance granting the
Scrantou Passenger Railway comrjany
the right of way over and on certain
streetn specifies that a 5 cent fare ah, ill
be charged , and
Whereas, Said company iinow charg
ing a 10 cent fare to the city limits on
tbe South Side; therefore, be it
Resolved, That tbe city solicitor is
directed to notify the said Scrantou
Passenger Kail way company that said
company is violating the provisions of
tbe ordinance and must stop.
An ordinance directing tne city en
gineer to make au assessment for pav
ing Pine street between Waahiugton

cording to the feet rule, was referred
to the paving committee iu conjunc

COMING ATTRACTIONS.
Saturday evening: the Crystal Hose
company will have its annual benefit
at tbe Academy ef Music, wbeu "Tbe
Fast Mail" will be prodncad. Tbe
play is fiimou9 throughout the coun
try for the completeness and magni
tude of its mechanical effects. Tbe
production is under the personal super
vision of its author Lincoln J. Carter.
Special scenery is carried for the ten
complete ets used in the play. In the
second act a steamboat Is shown with
the boiler rooms and their intrieits
maebiii'ry, and the glowing furnuces.
The bout is blown up by n tremendous
explosion. aud thi wreek is going down
in mid river. Tbo great railwuy scene
is another of the unprecedented
achievements of their performance in
the direction of realism, A freight
train of fourteen cars is run across the
stage with an illuminated caboose and
a practical locomotive. The fireman
and engineer are seen at their respect
ive stations, looks like reality itsalf.
A mail train comes speeding by and
catelus the mail punch just as every
one has seen It do many times.
In the lust act Niagara Falls are
shown in all their natural beauty, A
cataract of real water is put on the
stage, and it boila and foams in the
most natural way. The soft moonlight
adds to the effect, and the scene needs
only the addition of the suspension
bridge to complete the elfeot of reality.

Those Street Car Changes.
Editor of TllK TniBDNE.
DEAR SIR Xd your ibsuo of yesterday
morning was a notioe from tbe Scrantou
Traction company to tho effect thnt after
8 p. m. the Nay Aug cars would run half
hour trips till 11) o'clock and the next car
after that would be 10.40. With a party
of friends 1 had been atteuding a reception
at Park place; we got off the Providence
car nt Putin uveuue and Spruce street at
10.81. and waited for the' Nay Aug car,
which came on time; but after wo were
all sooted tbe conductor informed us that
his orders were to wait until the perform
ance closod at tho theaters, which ho did,
keeping 14 passengers waiting IS minutes!
Was this right on the part of tho company
after announcing the car would leave at
10,40? We think it was unjust, find Wt
know there would bo no car till 11 o'clock
we would have taken the Laurel Hill Park
car and reached home earlier by walking n
couple of blocks. Uut arter waiting for
tho Nay Aug car and getting seated in it
WC did not think it advisable to change.
Wt wonld be glad if yon will publish this
letter and also call the attention of tho
manager of tho car company to the fa-t
that It is not the right thing to do when
they announce a car for 10.40 to keep pas
sengers waiting till 11 o'clock. Au extra
car for tbe accommodation of theatergo
ers would be tho proper thing. Yours
truly. Rl CHARD llinliNa.
