Tho consensus of opinion sesmod to

TROUBLE ABOUT THE GRADE.
Committees of Councils Discover
That Thera Is Nothing Defin
itely Setllcd About Bridge
At a meeting last night of the joint
streets nud bridges comtnilteo of coun
cils it cnuie cut that the options on
land on the West Side for the Linden
street bridge approach are in an un
settled and unsatisfactory condition,
and that oven tho particulars of the
Swetland street gi'ade are entirely a
mutter of doubt.
Members Thomas and Ltuer, of B3
lect council, nud Howe, Sweeney and
Iteagan, of common council, and City
Eugineer Phillips were proient. Mr.
T homas was electod chairman.
On assuming the chair Mr. Thomas
stated that he doubted if the committee
had any right to net on matters per
taining to the West Side approach to
tho Linden street bridge, as no such
mutter had been referred from councils.
Mr. Latin thought different and stated
that a serious mistake had hen made
iu the grade established for Swetlund
street, which, if not changed and a
settlement made with property owners
before the bridge is built, would brand
the eotntnittee nud couneils as "a pack
of numskulls with a big piece of folly
work as n monument.
It booris that an eleven per cent,
grade li .... been established for Swot
land streot over a portion of tho dis
tunes between Sixth and Ninth etreats.
While this grade ineura no damage to
property owner, it is steeper than
West Lackawanna avenue below Main
avenue, and is aa imprnoticible. Any
Krade reduced to possibility and eii'ial
to the prospective heavy tralUs could
not be constructed, except with ma
sonry, which would incur heavy ex
pense or would greatly damage prop
erty. It was suggested that tho connection
of the Swetlund Strest bridge and the
end of the proposed Linden Street
bridge be made by trestle work. City
Engineer Phillips said this latter
method was impossible without sub
jecting the city to heavy damages to
tho Jersey Central railroad. The com
pany owns the land to the ally between
Sixth and Seventh streets, and one of
the stipulations of their option was that
the approach passing the alley should
not be above the grade ns now estab
lished. The committee discussed Informally
the facts us related above an I finally
decided to postpoue any definite action
until after Friday afternoon at 4
o'clock, when, in conjunction with the
city engineer, they will meet property
owners at Swetland and Sixth stroots
and go ovur tho locality in question.
Mr. Phillips explained his inability
to make even an approximate estimate
on tho peers for the Roaring Brook
bridge because no appropriation had
been inado to take soundings. Mr.
Lauer was appointed a cotnmitteo to
see if men could not be furnished by
the street commissioner to do tbe work
under the supervision of the city en
gineer. LAST REHEARSAL TONIGHT.

OPERA REPEATED LAST NIGHT.
Mlsi Allen Was Sick and Her Part Was
Taken bv a Professional.
Eichberg's merry opera was repeated
in the College hull last night before a
much larger, but not mora enthusiastic
assemblage than that of the first night.
Miss Allen's Illness prevented her
from assuming her role and in bur
stead Miss Bessie Clark, of the Mnckay
Bennett Opera company, now playing
ut the Fiotbiugiiaiu theater, was se
cured. Miss Clark cleverly sung her role,
notwithstanding that she had to use the
book, The rest of tho players rung with
better effect than on Tuesday night
and an improvement was noticed in
their acting in some places where a
little crudity existed.
Last night Mr. Burke and Miss Mc
Eaulien captivated the audience, while
the vory splendid efforts of Mrs. Schil
ling and Mr, Walsh dserve mention.
The prooseds of both performances
will be devoted toward furnishing the
ball with opera chairs.

tut
Verdict for the Itiepbone Company in the
Famous Trespass Case.
WILL APPLY FOR A NEW TRIAL
Attorney , B. Prico Says the Case
Against the Telephone Company
Will Be Pushed Until tho Question
of Its Liability Is Definitely Settled.
Reasons Why a New Trial Should
Be Granted.
After court opened yesterday morn
ing the jury in the cauo of Dr. D. B.
lluud against the Central Pennsyl
vania Telephone and Supply company
brought its verdict into court, it hav
ing been agreed upon Tuosday evening
at 7 o'clock. Tho Verdlot was iu favor
of t ho defendant company.
One of the jurors laid yesterduy to
a TBIBUKI reporter tint the jury hud
mnob difficulty in agreeing cut that
the members finally cam t to the con
clusion that the electric railway corn
was more to blame for tho accident
than the telephony cojnpany and hence
they gave u vordlct in i favor of tho de
fendant. When Dr. Hand instituted proceed
ings ho lodged actions against the Tel
ephone company, People's streot Uail
ay company, and tho city of Scran
ton. The last two cases are still pend
ing. When seen ly a TRIBUNI reporter
yesterday, S, I!. Price, leading counsel
for the plaintiff, said the caso against
the Telephono company will be pur
sued nutil the question of its linbilily
for the accident is definitely settled be
fore the other cab s are taken np. Hu
says he will apply for a new trial at
once, und has prepared the following
reasons why onu should bt gran ted:
reasons for NEW trial.
First The court erred in rejecting tho
offer of evidence to explain the testimony
of Dr. Di ilu n, and to show that ho was
mistaken in his testimony.
Second The Court erred in the com
ments made to the jury ou the evidence
of Dr. Dolau.
Third The court erred in instructing
the jury that there was no negligence in
the use of u wire when half or tv.o-thirds
of ii was rusted off.
Fourth The court orred in saying that
the duty of the defendant as to th wire
down iu the street depended on tho danger
to be apprehended, More or less danger
was to be apprehended from tho wire
being down ill tho street, but independent
of this, it was the duty of the company to
remove the wire from tho street as sor.u
alter knowledge of lis falling had been r
celved us poeslole.and the jury should have
been so instructed. When the wire fell in
the street and the company had notico of
it, or as soon thereafter as it was posnible
to tako it from the street, the company
was a trespasser and liable tor any damage
occasioned by the wire, whether the injury
was to be npprehouded from the fact that
the wire was in the street, or not.
Fifth The court erred in the instruction
to the jury with regard to the guard wire
between tho telephone wiroi and the guy
wires of the street railway. Tho evidence
wai that the guard wires were in uso be
fore and at the titno of the accident in
other places, and that inch guard wires
protected tho telephone wires from con
tact with tha wires of tho People's Street
railway.
Sixth The court erred in tho answers
to plaintiff', point, the numbers of which
cnuuot now be recalled; wherein the in
struction to tho jury as requested was de
nied. IRBIS IN ITS CHARGE,
Seventh Tho court erred In charging
the lurv that whether or not tho company
Was given a license to erect the telephone
system, was a question which was elimi
nated from tho case ai:d In instructing the
jury that tho ordinance und contracts re
lating to the postal service and lire alarm
was equivalent to the license rcquirod by
the acts of assembly of 1ST! aud lbTt) aud
supplements.
Eighth Tho court also erred In the in
struction to the jury that in this case it
was necessary for the plaintiff to prove
negligence in the construction and mainte
nance of iis wires because the plaintiff's
declaration alleged negligence therein. It
is not MOeiliry to prove all the allega
tions set forth In the declaration, if such
portion Is proved us coustitutetho grounds
of an action recognized by law. Any other
inaterlHl facts stated are merely surplus
sage. Ninth Tho court orred In the instruc
tion to tho jury that If they bolieved tho
defendant, aftor notice of trouble on the
wire, did all thoy cnnld to repair it and
were unable to make the necessary re
pairs, there was no negligence. This was
wrong, because it wus nut nocessury to
make the repairs In order to remo ye tho
danger. The wiro could have been cut
and drawii from the stieot in n moment's
time, and the injury averted.
Tenth The court rrcd in not instruct
ing the jury that if Michnel Henry, au
oniployee of tho company seut to look for
trouble, wus at the corner of Ninth street
and Lackawanna avenue about 2 o'clock,
and they believed the testimony of tho
plaintiffs witnesses, Dlohl, Fuller and one
other, that the wire had fallen Into the
streot before that timo: there was evidence
from which tho jury could iufor nogli
genco. Eleventh The court errod also iu not
instrncting the jury In accordanco with
the point presented by the plaintiffs coun
sel, that if the telephone w ire fell on the
street railway who nd thus obtained a
current ef electricity which killed Dr,
Hand's liorso and severely shocked him,
the verdict of the jury must be for the
plaintiff, whether thodefoudaut was guilty
of negligence or not.
