Roche Did Not Mince Their Words to Koch Other. 1". II. demons and A. T. Con nell Resign. Mlnooka will not be annexed to Scranton. By a vote of 11 to 8 select council last night refused to consider the annexation which was passed on third reading Wednesday night In the common branch. Technically the ordinance was killed by Mr. Finn's motion to "postpone In definitely" and cannot be reconsidered In the future unless such a course Is desired by any two members who last night voted to postpone. The death of the ordinance was witnessed by the common branch members who, after their brief session had adjourned, went over into the select chamber to see what would befall Mlnooka. During a portion of the proceedings attending the action upon the ordin ance President Chittenden resigned the chadr to Mr. Schwenk, of the Eleventh. Strong but decorous language was used In debate and the ruling of Mr. Chit tenden on an important point of order was vigorously protested. When was read the title of the an nexation 'measure Mr. Finn made a mo tion, seconded by several Republican members, that the ordinance be in definitely postponed. Mr. Roche Entered a Protest. Mr. Roche, the Democratic member frum the Seventh, who arose from a sick bed to attend the meeting, was Im mediately on tola feet to protest such a motion, which he said smacked strongly of partisanship and was of a nature new to the deliberations of select coun cil. Mr. Lauer followed with similar re marks and added that when the ordin ance for annexing Helle.vue came into councils 'there was no effort made to block Its consideration. President Chittenden at this point re signed the chair to Mr. Schwenk, a Democrat, and presented figures calcu lated to argue against the proposed an nexation. His position in the matter Incensed Mr. Roche, and after Mr. Chit tenden had concluded there ensued be tween the two a veritable war of words In which neither gentleman minced hla meaning. Mr. Chittenden said: Value of the Property. "The present assessed valuation of the district proposed for annexation is 3160,000, which, by a 10-mill levy would contribute 31,600 to Scranton, assum lug that the annexation was made. It will thus be seen that the whole five square miles Involved compares only for example, with the Hand property at the corner of Washington avenue and Spruce street. Under these circum stances It would be well to ascertain how the $1,600 In taxes would compare with the expense of maintaining the district. "It would cost per year fqr electric lights $4,500; for fifty fire hydrants, $1,000, .and for maintaining and repair lng them, $1,250; for ten policemen, to cover an area one-fifth as great as the present area of Scranton, 39,000; for streets, $2,000; for culverts, $1,000, and for a fire alarm system and service, several thousand dollars. Altogether for the mere benefit of $1,600 we are asked to pay $20,000 or more per year, and I think this body should and will decide that Mlnooka is not eligible to enter the city." Reply by Mr. Roche. Mr. Roche, as he arose to reply to Mr. Chittenden, was visibly angered. He said: "The position assumed by the president is on a par with his attitude on every similar question which has come before this body since he has been a member of it. He is shamefully partlslan and has a rare audacity to assume the position he does; he favored the annexation of Bellevue simply be cause it is a Republican district, and yet Bellevue for geographical reasons, If for no other, is not hnlf as much en titled to be a part of Scranton as Mlnooka. Bellevue was not self-sup porting and today lies down a pre cipice and Is utterly Inaccessible to the city at large. If Mr. Chittenden so loved Bellevue he puts himself In a very bad light in opposing Mlnooka." "I would like to ask the gentleman from the Seventh how he voted on the Bellevue annexation?" queried Mr, Chittenden. "For it, sir," replied Mr. Roche, "but not on the political ground nor In the spirit with which you are opposed to annexing a much more desirable sec tion." "The gentleman's reply," tersely said Mr. Chittenden, "Is my argument and doea not call for further comment." He then resumed the chair and the mo tion to postpone indefinitely the ordl nace was carried. It was a purely partlslan vote, as follows: Ayes Ross, Finn, Thomas, Williams, Durr, Chittenden, Wagner, Sanderson, Fellows, Kellow, Westpfahl 11 votes, Nays Kelly, Clark, Roche, Schwenk, Manley. McCann, Burns, Lauer 8 votes. Mr. McCann raised the point of order that a two-third vote Is required to postpone action on an ordinance before the meeting. "That Is true," said Mr. Chittenden "but this meeting has yoted not to con sider this particular ordinance; conse quently I shall rule that the point Is not well taken." Two Resignations Read. The resignations of F. H. Clemons, of the Seventeenth ward, elected sheriff, and A. T. Connell, of the Twentieth ward, elected to the legislature, were read and accepted, and later In the session Mr. Sanderson's resolution pro viding for a special election to fill the vacancies and to be called by the mayor, was adopted. The streets and bridges committee re ported adversely on Mr. Lauer'B resolu tlon provldlug for a commission to make plans and specifications for an overhead vladuot over the Lackawanna tracks on North Main avenue. The re port was adopted. An ordinance regulating the wages of employes of contractors performing olty contracts was received from com mon council and referred to committee, as was also an ordinance prohibiting the employing of alien labor. An ordl nance from the common branch was referred to committee permitting the Valley Passenger Railway company to extend Its lines. Resolutions were adopted providing for the payment of wages and material on the Ferguson aewer contracts on Carbon, SUex and Mineral streets; dl reeling the park commissioners to re port the outcome of their efforts to se cure Round Woods for a public park creating a special commission to find meana to abolish the grade crossing known as Trlpp'a crossing over the Lackawanna track. ; ; , . The ordinance providing for a public market was presented by its framer and firm advocate, Mr. Roche. After he had offered several amendments, which were accepted, the measure passed first and second readings. An ordinance giving the right of way over certain North End streets to the Scranton and North End Railroad com pany passed third reading. It will con nect with the present Scranton Trac tion company system at Delaware street and run to and beyond the city line. MR. SCHADT RESIGNS. It Was Presented at Last Night's Meeting of Common Council. Members of common council held a meeting last night ostensibly for the transaction of public business, but the purpose seemed In reality to bring the members together to enjoy the delights of a moonlight ride over the snow to Olyphant. At the usual meeting hour President Nealls rapped attention and Clerk McLean proceeded to read thj minutes of the last meeting. Mr. Swee-' noy moved to dispense with that order of business and his suggestion was carried. The resignation of County Treasurer- elect Charles H. Schadt, member from the Sixteenth ward, was read and the chairman called on Mr. Robathan to say something. The gentleman very gracefully complimented Mr. Schadt on his good fortune as being the choice of the voters of Lackawanna county for one of the highest ofllccs In gift of the people. Mr. Robathan referred to the able and clean record of the retiring member since his election to council, always alive to the Interest of his ward and also the people of the city. Captain Molr followed with a very handsome compliment to Mr. Schadt'8 honesty and manliness. Mr. Battle spoke last, but his tribute was not the least. All wished the retiring member a continuance of the progress that has already marked his career. Chairman Nealls stated that he wished to announce the members whom he had appointed to succeed Mr. Schadt on the different committees. Mr. Rob inson succeeds as chairman of the fire committee, Mr. Hlckey goes on the esti mate committee, Mr. Sweeney on the railway committee, Mr. Battle on sew ers und tlrnlns and Mr. Norton, on the public buildings committee. On third reading the ordinance passed establishing a minimum rate of wages to be paid by contractors taking contracts from the city. The scale provides that mechanics such as stone masons and stone cutters shall receive not less than $3 a day, rocltsmen not less than $2 a day, laborers not less than $1.50 a day, teams S4 a day, one horse $2.75. Tho ordinance granting the Valley Passenger Railway company the right of way over certain streets of the city passed final reading and went over to select council. Mr. Robinson objected to the ordinance because It gave the right of way over the Roaring Brook bridge. He was the only one that vot ed against It on the roll call. The meet ing adjourned to partake of the hospi tality of Mr. Schadt, who had a band sleigh and four horses at the door headed for Olyphant. FUNERAL OF W. W. WIXT0X.
