NO GREAT FLURRY ABOUT THEM I
Member Connell Says He Doesn't
Think Any Serious Charges Were
Made, But a Charge Which He
Thinks Was Made Was Pretty
Nearly Right Many Recommenda
tions from the City's Chief Execu
tive. There was no great flurry at the se
lect council meeting last nlgbt over
the Frable charges. Mr. Westpfahl,
under the hesd of new butiuess, intro
duced a resolution, directing that inas
much as a member of the Sooth Side
board of trade, named George Frahle,
had charged South Side councilman
with buviug drawn money from ths
city treasnry for work tliut was pur
ported to have been done by street la
borers, which work had never been
done, that council direct a committer
consisting of Members Lauer, Mi-Cmu
and Thomas to Investigate and report
on the charges.
Mr. Connell thought the investiga
tion should bu conducted by elective
officers of the city not member ot
oounfil. "To be inv-sttgatej by our
selves," anid be, "is like tb.4 eugtr ln
vestlgation. Mr. Manl-y thought the
resolution was all right. As only S uth
Side councilman bad been included in
the cliargos, West Side members would
be aide to impartially oouJuot toe in
vestigation. Mr. Connell sail that for
His part be didn't think there were any
charges made. It was simply stated at
the meeting that money had Dein in
judiciously expended by councilman,
and that is pretty nearly right, i
yurss, added Mr. U-mnell.
Ou motion of Mr, Miiilsy the reso
lution was adopted without farther
ol jsctiou.
BOMB INSANITARY LOCALITIES.
The sanitary committee, which bad
made a tour or the olty at the invita
tion aud iu company with the officers
of tbe board of health, reported that
certain sections of the city were in a
'terrible insanitary coudition. le
Providence station bouse, Connor
court In the Fourth war I, D oner
court in the Fourth ward, aud parts of
the Twentieth ward were particularly
in need of sanitary legislation. The
committee also recommended that the
water supply of the city be analyzed
monthly and reported upon to councils.
Mayor Council, in a commuoioailon,
vetoed the resolution providing thai
tbe Leegett street bridge be removed
to Wells street, and stated that th
bridge will not fit tbe abutments, nor
span the cre k. '
The mayor communication recom
mending the purchase of. tbe ap-
pronohes to the proposed Roaring
brook bridge from the rutt estate ioi
UO.UUU was adopted. The mayor noil
tied oouncils that tbe papers conveying
Nay Aug park to the city had been
executed and asked that provisions be
made to pay tbe rental. Lie also called
attention to the necessity of ' having a
full report as to tbe condition of the
mine workings under the eity nan ana
suggested that li. Q. brooks be re
auested to make a thorough examina
tion of the same ana report mi nua-
nors to councils. A resolution to tbla
effect was later adopted by tbe meet
ing.
Mr. Burns presented a petition of
considerable length begging that th
name of Fifth avenue, in the Sixth
ward, be erased from the city maps and
changed to O Boyle street. Tuereso
latiou was referred to the streets and
bridges committee.
QUIBBLE OVER DU1DOE PLANS.
Tbe resolution directina; the city
clerk to secure competeut bridge plana
for tbs proposed new bridges brought
speeches from Messrs. Manley, demons
and Roche. Mr. Mmley wanted im
mediate action on the measure, as U
was bis opinion that common council
intends to tie up the bridge ordinance
until such time as these competitive
plans are submitted. Messrs. demons
and Roche argued for the completeness
and excellence of the city engineer's
plitns and Inexpediency of the reso
lution. Tbe resolution went to the
committee on streets aud bridges.
A resolution was introduced direct
ing tbe Street Railway compiny to
move its tracks to the center of the
street on Cedar avenue at the Birch
street intersection.
Tbe only ordinance introduced was
one providing for the paving of Frank'
Ho avenue between Spruce and Mul
berry streets with vitrified brick. Tb
resolutions were adopud and the ordi
nance referred to oomtnittee.
POLES WILL BE TAXED
ttayor'a Signature Has Been Attached
ti tho Ordiaano.
All teleurapb, telephone and other
coles supporting electric wires will bn
taxed 50 cents each, beginning April 1
1893. The ordinance so providing was
signed by Mavor Connell yesterday.
The ordinanoe was presented by
Counollmau Roche and is virtually the.
famous Browning measure wbieh occa
sioned such heated opposition in tbe
last councllmanio bodies. Tbe Brown
ing ordinance, however, if passed,
would have placed a tax of 21 on th
poles and contained no provision for
painting. The present measure stipu
lates that the poles shall be painted
uniform color within six weeks after
they are erected.
NO SMOKING ALLOWED.
Traotlon Company No Longer Toleratea
Smoklmr en Platforms
The Scranton Traction company has
posted a new order prohibiting amok
ing on closed cars altogether, and
allowing tbe devotees of tbe weed to
smoke on only the two last seats of
onnn cars.
Tbe rule went into eff.tct yesterday
and notioes have been placed In all tbe
cars. It will do away with the orowd
ing of platforms and be an appreciated
move in the rigut aireetion.

In commenting oa his seleatioas.
"Centaur" said: "Ilorty C, a stranger,
and Fred in tbe first raoe may bring

"The 2 50 clasi make a very pretty

however.
"Magnolia, Abigail and Keeley shoald
