WHOLE VALLEY IS AFFECTED Mr. Roche Speaks Out in Meeting Aboat Matter Which lias Been Whispered About of Late-Both Branches of Council In Session. In considering the ordinance for the Valley iPaasenger Mailway company's proposed extension to Petersburg iu se lect council last nlifht Mr. Roche touched upon a matter which has been mentioned only in a whisper hereto fore. It Is the nvalldlty of the valley Passenger railway company's fran chises undtr which the Scranton Trac tion company Is now oeratliiK miles of electric railways in this city. LMr. Roche suid that the franchises were invalid because of a recent de cision of court which held that u street railway company must necessarily se cure the right of way over the entire length of Its proposed line before It can make use of any of the privileges grunted by any -lty, borough or town along Its route. The Valley Passenger company, Mr. 'Roche sum, hud se cured the right of way over Scranton streets on the strength of their inten Hon to construct a road) up and down the valley. They fulled to secure many of the franchises which wvre necessary for the completion of the original plans, consequently, not having carried out their expressed intentions, the tain chlses which they did secure revert to the city, borough or town which grant ed them. Contention of Mr. Wagner. Mr. Wagner contended that the law only applied to townships and bor oughs, butlMr. Roche, who had evident ly anticipated this objection, stated that he hud consulted a lawyer upon thut very point and hud been given as surance that Mr. Wagner's interpreta tion was not correct. Mr. 'Roche explained that his object In bringing this matter to the atten tion of councils was that the councils might provide against future contln- gi'iicles which 'might arise If the law was strictly enforced. One of these contingencies Is that in case the street railway company is compelled to tear up Its tracks the city will be liable for dumugc to pavements, which are luid at property holders' private expense. The matter was too Important for nasty consideration so council let It pass for the present, unil also passed the franchise ordinance with a few amendments, chief among which were provisions for paving twelve Inches on each side of both tracks and compelling ine company to give transfers on In tersecting as well as connecting lines. i.Mr. Chittenden, for the committee on resolutions. Introduced the following resolutions on the death of Charles l- Mattes, for so many years a member or scranton councils, and known familiarly as 'The Father of the Coun cils": Resolution! of Sympathy. Whereas, Almluhtv Uod I n the exercise of His dlvino w:ll has removed from this world ana the busy cares of life, Charles F. Mattes, for many years un honored member of select council, ami Whereas, This body desires to place upon reeoru ineir prorouno grier at the death of their former associate: therefore be It Resolved. That the services rendered the city of SiTHiiton by Charles F. Mattca during the time he represented the Sev enteenth ward in select council were in keeping with his virtuous character. Immi nently practical In affairs, he was tire less ln,h:s industry, clear and comprehen sive in his perceptions, bold and efficient In the discharge or every duty; and as temperate an I methodical In his habits us he va tenacious and reliable in his friendships. Risolved, That the members of select council extend to the family of the lie ceased their deepest sympathy in the dis tressing loss they have sustained. Resolved. That these resolutions he spread upon the minutes and that a suit ably engrossed copy be presented to the bereaved family as an evidence of our regard. C. E. Chittenden, M. J. Hums, R. II. Williams. Committee. Council reconsidered its action of the previous meeting In the matter of send ing Fred Durr to the tire cniets con vention In Augusta, On., and substi tuted the chief of the fire department In hrs place.
