ffllNQOKA JA10I ENTER
Select Council Refuses to Receive the
' Annexation Ordinance.
STRONG LANGUAGE IS USED
President Chittenden and Air. 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.
Services Held at the Family Residence on
West Market Street Interment ia For
est Hill Cemetery.
A large number, of well known citi
zens and business mon attended the
funeral of tho late W. W.Wlnton, which
took place from the family residence
on West Market street, Providence, yes-
iterday. Rev. O. L. Alrlch, of the Grace
Reformed church, conducted the ser
vices at the Presbyterian church, and
Rev. George Guild preached a special
sermon from the words, "So shall we
ever be with the Lord." He Impressed
the comfort which believers In the
word had In the death of such as fall
asleep In Christ from the fact that they
were forever with the Lord. Mr. Win
ton's crowning grace was charity; his
charity of judgment was shown when
Invective slanderers and vllllflers as
sailed him; but In face of all he was
ready to forget and forgive. He was
also charitable In Hi I a donations to
churches and other institutions, and 'es
pecially to the poor.
At the service there was no singing
and no flowers, by request. The honor
ary pall bearers 'were Theodore Strong,
president of the First National bank, of
PIttston; Alfred Hand, John Jermyn,
Dr. B. H. Throop, William Connell,
James A. Linen, William Moore and
George W. Bushnell. Tho pall bearers
carrying the casket were Ezra H. Rip
ple. A. W. Dickson, W. W. Lathrope,
E. B. Sturges, James M. Everhart and
