COUNCILMEN ON THB MOVE
Both Braaohee Take Steps to Solve the
Diffiealty-Scleet Connell and tho
Captain Edwards' Investigation.
Board of Revision and Appeals.
Prom Hie outcome of both meetlnss
of councils last night It appears that
the members, during the past few days,
have been expending more or less grey
matter on the solution of the all Im
portant question of securing the neces
sary funds for the completion of the
bridges. Yesterday Mr. Kodie discov
ered $1,500 left over from the .appro
priation for the purclinse of land for
the Swetland street approach, which
not even the cltv controller knew was
not in use. This with the $10,000 vlu
duet appropriation, which toas been ly
ing Idle for the past six years, will
furnifh enough funds to carry the
bridges to completion. Mr. Roche, in
select counvH. 'and Mr. Sweeney, in
common council, each Introduced an
ordinance transferlng this money to
the 'bridges. Mr. Sweeney wants to
transfer the $U.60O to the Roaring
Brouk bridge and to give what may be
left to the Linden street bridge. Mr.
Roche wants to merge this transfer
able money with the amount due from
interest and premiums on bonds and
thereby make a fund that will suffice
to pay for the completion of both
bridges. Mr. Sweeney, by his ordin
ance, wants to guard against the pos
sibility of the Wept Side people re
fusing to chip In 'the viaduct $10,000
after their own bridge is completed, so
he provides llrst of all that the $10,000
In question be spent on the Roaring
Brook bridge. Mr. Roche's ordinance
contemplates a general love feast in
whk-h South SMe and West Side bridge
adherents get toge'ther, and finish both
bridges togfther, and not each sepa
rately. The Two Bridges Figured Out.
Here Is the way Mr. Roche figures:
Liabilities:
Purchase of approaches to L'.nden
street bridge $ 32.017
Cost of superstructure 72,111
Cost of substructure ll.Uti!
City engineer's estimate of cost of
completing Linden street ap
proaches 21,900
Total 137.1
Estimated cost of Uoartng brook
bridge and approaches JHS.tWO
Total liabilities 233,109
Bond's netted '....$:'Tl,Oi
Interest on bonds 6.W0
Balance from purchase of Swet-
land street approaches 1.500
Transfer from viaduct appropria
tion 10,000
Total assets 12W.M0
Thus It Is readily seen the bridges
can be finished without any delay on
account of financial difficulties, and all
the plan requires is the concurrence of
the other city officials.
Shall Councilman Bo Barred?
Mr. Roche's movement to bar council
men fiom serving on the board of re
vision of taxes and appeals was report
ed favorably by the tax committee, but
after being buffeted about for a while
was sent to the Judiciary committee
with instructions to test its legality,
which was questioned by Mr. Lansing,
who contended luiat an enactment of
tne legislature could nut be annulled
by a resolution of councils. When it
was up for dlscuuion Mr. Maniey took
occasion to score 'Mr. Chittenden for
having participated in tne Republican
caucus which nominated three council
men as candidates for the board, after
he iad favored the resolution barring
councilmen from the board. Mr. Chit
tenden responded by merely uaylng .
that he was not responsible for the
caucus.
Mr. Roche, In defending his resolu
tion, contended that tt was against the
general principles of municipal man
agement for councilmen to have power
to make assessments. Mr. Maniey called
attention to the fact that the legisla
ture had taken an opposite view in
framing the law, and further that the
beard of revision and appeals has al
ways been composed of councilmen, and
only under this latest Jaw are councils
given discretionary power to aiso
place citizens on the board. Mr. Roche
rejoined that heretofore the board had
no power to order assessments, but
only to hear appeals. He again men
tioned his objection, explaining that he
believed it to be against the spirit of
good city government for councilmen to
be vested with the power of making
assessments.
The resolution calling for an Investi
gation of Police Captain Edwards was
treated facetiously and without much
ado referred to the police committee for
partment corjwnittee:
For a Paid l ire Department.
The following letter, received by Sir.
Chittenden, was referred to the fire de
partmnt committee:
Scranton, Pa., Aug. 22, 1895.
I take the liberty of bringing to your
attention some recommendations of the
inspector of the National Board of Fire
Underwriters; being the result of his visit
of Inspection a short time since, which J
think will be of Interest to you.
I would be much obliged if you would let
me know whether It would be possible for
the city to carry out the .ideas advanced
by the inspector and whether 4t is possi
ble that any action could be taken soon.
Yours very truly, Henry Bwlin, Jr.
The recommendations are appended:
' That permanent men be added to the
fire department from time to time. In or
der that It may In lime merge into a full
paid department; that the first assistant
chief be made a permanent officer; that
the chief should be empowered to investi
gate the origin of all flres; that all en
gines should have heaters for quick steam
ing; that another hook and ladder com
pany be added to the department; that
the city should own and operate Its own
alarm system and that the headquarters
of the system should be In a Are proof
building; that wires of all kinds should be
placed underground.

recommended that it be DUrchased.
The report waa not signed by either
Mr. Lortus or Mr. Morrls, the other
members of the committee, the former
being absent from the meeting, and
the latter having failed to attend the
inspection. Mr. Morris oiiDosed the
adoption of the report because a ma
jority of the committee had not signed
it, ana was roundly scored by Mr. Rob
inson for "being afraid or ashamed to
go to the Crystal hose house with the
committee." The report was withheld
until Mr. Loftus could put his signa
ture to It.

RAILROAD NOTES.
The Philadelphia and Reading offi
cials are arranging an entire new schd
ttle of passenger rates. This Is proba
bly to .meet the cheap competi tion of the
trolley oar. The local roads will oon
have to follow suit When the aft art rs
of the Carbondale road are straightened
out and the 'line 'between Taylor and
Duryeaput in run ni'ng order the compe
tition between t'.ie steam and electric
lines will be sharper and lower rates
will Inevitably ensue.
Work 'has been commenced at the
chops in Reading to equip a number of
frciigiht and coal ca.is with air brakes.
It is expected this work will keep the
chops busy for some time, as the com
pany owns about 30,000 cars of the
above class.
The rolling etock of the Pennsylva
nl'i lines west of Plttuburg has been In
rured against Are In the Insurance
funds of the company. Yardmasters
and conductors tvave received instruc
tions to report all wreck's in which
'tolling rtock la burned, as the company
can demand Insurance for any loss over
$25. The Insurance Is to cover not only
freight cars and passenger coaches,
but stallions and other buildings.
Not many persons are aware of the
fact that you can take a railroad ride
on the Pennsylvania lines sixty-eight
miles as cheap as you can go forty
three miles, yet such ts the case in to
far as the rates from Pittsburg to
SteubcrrvUle ere concerned. .The dis
tance by the Chicago and PMtsbunr Is
sixty-eight mile and' the fare $1.50,
while by fhs Panhandle the distance
Is only forty-three miles and the fare
the tame. In going to Chicago from
the Smoky City you can ride 507 miles
on the Panhandle or Pittsburg and

than you can go via the Font Wayne,

MlBlstsr-lsed Revolvers to la
timidats While They Robbed.
Four masked tmrglars entered the
houae or Rev. William R. Cochrane,
pastor of the Stewart uMemorlal church
at Rendam, early yesterday morning,
and, after binding and gagging the
minister and binding his wife, robbed
them of whatever valuables they could
secure.
About S o'clock Mr. Cochrane was
awakened by the raising of his bed
room window, ami, looking In that di
rection, beheld a masked man, revolver
in hand, climbing. Into the room. Be
fore he could rise a revolver was thrust
Into his face and he was commanded
to keep still.
Three other men. each masked and
armed, clanrbered through the window,
and bound 'both Mr. and 'Mrs. Cochrane.
The robbers wound a rope about Mr.
Cochrane's body, pinioning his arms to
his sides and binding his legs tightly
together. The burglars, satisfied that
iMrs. Cochrane wa so thoroughly
frightened that she was not dangerous,
contended themselves with simply tying
her hand and feet, and threatening
her with death if she made an outcry.
They Demanded Ills Money.
They -then demanded that Mr. Coch
rane tell them where he kept his money.
He said he had none except some small
change) which was iln his purse and he
showed the where It was. They evi
dently had a great respect for the word
of the 'minister tf not for his person,
for they did not attempt to hunt for
hidden money but took what little waa
in the purse.
The leader then ordered the others
to gag Mr. Cochrane, and in doing this
they badly bruised 'his Up in pushing
the gag Into his mouth. They then
demanded the valuables, and a silver
watch belonging to the minister, a gold
watch belonging to his wife, two breast
pins ami two rings which Mrs. Coch
rane had on her Angers were turned
over to the robbers.
They then unloosened the ropes which
bound Mr. Cochrane anl removed the
gag from his mouth. They tied his
hands and feet, however, in n. .path.
loose manner, and, after threatening to
-.wj me wupie it tney attempted to
j wwj or mage any outcry before
they were well gone, the burirlara fllo
out singly, the leader going last, all

with his revolver.
After a time Mr. Cochrane succeeded
in freeing himself and then cut the
ropes -which 'bound his wife, but he
made no alarm.
Chief -of -Police Simpson Notified.
When daylight arrived he came to
this city and notified Chief Simpson.
He said that he did not think the rob
bers were foreigners. The leader was
a well dreesed man and spoke good and
correct English. The others spoke but
very llttlei and what little they had to
ray was spoken In an undertone as If
they feared to have their voices. rec
ognized.
The object of their visit, Mr. Cochrane
bellevea. was to secure the two months'
Instalment cf his salary, which he ex
pected to get Wednesday, as the mines
at Rendham were payed on that day.
However he did not get home until
a'bout 9 o'clock Wednesday night, as he
attended tne vvyomlng camp meeting
and consequently did not receive the
expected Instalment of his salary.
