Elaborate Book Just Issued by tho Jersey Central Knllrosd. Of the many handsome books Issued this season by the railroads for the con venience of travelers and tourists none has come to the notice of The Tribune that merits greater compliment than the book of over 200 pages Just Is sued by the Central Railroad of New Jersey. Each year the great transporatlon companies have vied with each other In their endeavor to present to the public the most elaborate and attractive tourist book that money and talent can evolve, and this year the Central Rail road of New Jersey seems to be at the head of the procession. The book referred to la a compre dlum of the hundreds of delightful points along and adjacent to the great territory reached by the Central. It contains many attractive Illustrations, but its main feature is a minute and faithful description of the resorts along Us lines. The reading matter Is honest and the prospective tourist need have no fears of having to wade through a sea of railroad advertising in order to grasp the really refreshing part of the matter which the book' contains. Anything pertaining to rates or other passenger matters can be obtained by addressing J. S. Swisher, of this city. 1 WATER COURSE CHANGED.

HAS SET THEM THINKING Councilmen Aghast at an Opinion by City Solicitor Torrey. A GREAT MUNICIPAL CHANGE According to Mr. Torrey, tho City Coun cils Have No Need of an Auditing Committee While We Have a City Controller. ' One of the most Important matters that has yet received consideration from the city councils came up at the meeting of select council last night. In the months of October, November and December of 1894 a bill of $477.70 was presented to councils by Mayor Connell for detective services. Coun cils refused to pay be bill and last night an opinion on the matter was re ceived from City Solicitor Torrey. The city solicitor takes the view that the city clerk is the one empowered to draw warrants as soon as bills are sent In approved by tho heads of depart ments, without and not requiring the consent or approval of the auditing committee. If there Is anything wrong with the bills it'he city controller Is the proper person when the warrant reaches him for countersignature to investigate and find out the defect. Following out the advice luid down In the opinion City Clerk Lavellc, at the Instruction of the mayor, drew a warrant for the detective bill. The city clerk read a communication from himself stating that faot to coun cils and giving also the written opinion of the city solicitor. The opinion Is a long one, but the paragraph In which the whole matiter la summed up is as follows: City Solicitor Torrcv's Opinion. "It has seemed to me ever since I be came familiar with the operation of the city government, that as to all ap propriations made directly to depart ments. It would be much simpler, less confusing and more conducive to regu larity, and more convenient for persons having claims against the city. If war rants went directly from the heads of departments to the controller. More over, the practice of passing bills through the auditing committee and councils has a tendency to weaken the feeling of responsibility which ought to rest upon the controller to thoroughly investigate every claim against the city, and there Is a liability to the feel ing that the bills having already been Investigated and passed upon, they may be approved or countersigned without much examination. "The law very carefully places the entire weight of responsibility for all this upon the controller, and furnishes him with the power to examine wit nesses and makes him and his bonds' men responsible for the proper dis charge of the duties, none of which statements are true of the councils or their committees." Mayor Connell also sent a communi cation and asked under the opinion to have a warrant drawn for the payment of the bill. The opinion of the city so licitor, If adopted, will virtually do away with the auditing committee. The opinion was referred to the Judici ary committee after a short deoate, and on motion of Mr. Lansing a war rant was ordered drawn for the amount of the bill. 4 That Cannvnn Proposition Again. It was agreed to accept the proposi tion of Stephen Jones, who agrees to accept $2,200 for hla claim against the city. A letter was read from John P. Canavan, of New York, renewing the proposition to sell to the city eighteen and three-fourths acres of land adjoin ing Nay Aug park for the sum of $28, 100. Mr. McCann introduced an ordi nance permitting the People's Street Railway company of Luzerne county to move its street car tracks trom the side of Robinson street to the center of the street. The ordinance was referred to committee with Instructions to return It printed If a favorable report be made upon It. File of select council, No. 14, which Is the ordinance creating a board of public works and enlarging and regu lating the powers of the street com missioner, was reported favorably last night by Mr. Chittenden, chairman of the streets and bridges committee. The full text of the provisions of the ordi nance were given In The Tribune two weeks ago, when It waa reported by Mr. Chittenden and sent back to the com mittee to have It printed after shearing away all clauses that might be uncon stitutional. The ordinance passed first and second readings with a minor amendment by Mr. Chittenden. An ordinance on third reading passed for the purchase of land for opening of Wyoming avenue between Phelps to Ash streets. The land was ordered purchased from J. E. Swift and Brid get Kearney. Other ordinances that passed on final reading were: For the reconveyance of lot In the Fourth jvard sold as the property of Charlotte Bor sel, to the estate of John R. Davis; providing for the construction of a main sewer on Washington avenue from Stafford Meadow Brook In a northeasterly direction to Beech street; and providing for the placing of a heater In the Franklin Engine house. Contract for Furnishing Hone. Mr. Purr, chairman of the fire depart ment committee, reported favorably the resolution passed by common coun cil awarding the contract for furnish ing hose to the fire department as fol lows: To the Gutta Percha and Rub ber Manufacturing company, 200 feet of 3-ply, 2,4-lnch hose; to the Eureka Fire Hose company, 40 feet of Paragon Brand 2-lnch hose. The resolution passed and the contract contained therein were awarded. A number of dog tax exonerations and the following resolutions were passed: Directing the chief engineer to erect two Are hydrants, one at Re becca avenue and Washburn street, the other at Van Buren avenue and Wash burn street; requesting the city soli citor to present a written opinion as to whether tho exemption of occupation tax of volunteer firemen applies to paid members of the Are de partment and salaried officers of tho olty; providing for awarding the con tract for laying sidewalks on certain street of the Fifteenth ward to the Teeter Stone company; directing the street commlsslsoner to formulate a monthly report to councils giving the names of all contractors doing work for the city and the rate of wages paid to the employes of these contractors, and the number of non-citizens employed; directing the chief engineer to cause a Are hydrant to be erected at Wyom ing avenue and Hickory street. FOR EXECUTIVE APPROVAL. Olll Providing for a Fire Marshal in Hands of Governor. ! Senator J.- C. Vaughan has written to Secretary Dolph B. Atberton, of the Scranton board of trade, stating that the bill providing for the creation of an office to be known as a fire marshal in cities of the third class, has passed the state legislature and Is now awaiting the signature of Governor Hastings. The bill originated in the board of trade of this city, and was thought out by Insurance Agent It. W. Luce, chair man of the public safety committee of the board. Senator Vaughan Introduced It and followed It through on passage. It empowers the mayors of cities to which It applies to appoint the Are marshal, who will be vested with au thority to discover the perpetrators of Incedlary Ares or attempts, auocessfuj or otherwise, at arson. The new offl cer will, It is confidently believed, serve as a strong preventive to crimes of this nature. NEWS OF THE RAILROADS. Superintendent C. R. Manvllle, of the Delaware and Hudson, was in the city yesterday. Engineer George Snow, of the Dela ware, Lackawanna and Western, is breaking In engine No. 240. The Delaware, Lackawanna and Western will pay at the Cayuga, Brls bln and Stnrrs mines toduy. John H. Bender has resigned as su pervisor of the Central Railroad of New Jersey at Mauch Chunk.

The gymnasium class of the Dela ware, Lackawanna and Western Young Men's Christian association will have a street run after class drill Monday evening, June 10. ' The convention of the Order of Rail way Conductors last week adopted a report entirely exonerating the retir ing secretary land treasurer, W. P. Daniels, from churges preferred against him, and censuring those who made them. Mr. Daniels was presented with a valuable watch as a mark of conil dence and appreciation of his long ser vices for the order. The Brotherhood of Railroad Train men is confronted with a deficit of $78,000 in the general fund, and the canventlon at Galesburg last week spent much time over the problem of meeting It. The printing plant seems to have been run at a considerable loss as plants of that kind nre very liable to be run. The resignation of Grand Master Wilkinson, which he afterward desired to withdraw but was not per mitted to do, also made a subject for much discussion, "I have found Hood's Pills to bo all that they are claimed to be.
