MAYOR HAS XO POWER TO DO SO
That Is What IU Said Yesterday aad Ills
Opialoa Is Backed l p by That of
the City Solicitor-Kesoislioas
Signed by the Mayor.
"With reference to the Joint session of
counrlls for the election of a board of
revision and appeal. Mayor Connell
stated yesterday that the act of as
sembly creating this bureau does not
contain any specification of power to
entitle him to issue a call for the
Joint session.
The city solicitor la of the same opin
ion, although he has not been nsked of
ficially to give an opinion on the mat
ter. There are so many, and especially
counellmen. who are under the Impres
sion that the mayor Is the proper au
thority to announce the date of elec
tion of the board, that It will be a sur
prise to them.
If any notion prevailed to any extent
that the councils would have to tlx
the date by resolution, that resolution
would have been Introduced long before
now.
A prominent member of the councils
was heard to express the wish yester
day 'that the mayor would not Issue
the call for the Joint session until nfter
he came back from a trip of n week
or so that he was about to start on
Just then.
The councilman, nut the mayor, Is
the one who was going aw.iv, and who
wanted the date far enough ahead to
enable him to go away and be back in
time to vote In the election of five mem
bers of the board.
Tt'oxe Cement SMcnnlkv.
There Is a movement- a font In the
councils to kill the ordinance now
peuding that provides for the prohibit
ing of laying v-ment sidewalks here
after. The ordinance has been hnng
Ing Are for a long time. It was Intro
duced In the upper branch of council
bv Mr. Chittenden and In due course of
time passed third and final reading.
Then it went over to the common
branch, where It laid dormant un
til Thursd.iv right, when It was taken
out. dusted and referred to the commit
tee on pavement with Instructions to
report forthwith. In the order of busi
ness treatlne of ordinances on first and
second reading, the anti-cement side
walk measure went through sailing.
It might have never been resurrect
ed from the pigeon hole but for the
queries that have freouently been made
as to what right I'nole Sam had to lay
a granolithic sidewalk around the
Federal building, when an. ordinance
prohibiting the use of cement has
passed. The ouestloners were misin
formed: the ordinance Is not a law, and
from all accounts will be killed when
taken up for final consideration In com
mon council. It provides that the lay
ing of any sidewalk with a surface of
hydraulic cement Is prohibited within
the city limits, and that the street com
missioner Is Instructed to refuse per
mits for such sidewalks In future and
If any are laid without a permit It
shall be deemed a misdemeanor and If
not removed after thirty days' notice
fmm the street commissioner, he shall
cause It to be torn up and collect the
expense from the property owner.
Hcsol'ttlons Signed llv Vnvor.
Mayor Connell yesterday signed the
following resolutions: Authorizing the
chief engineer of the fire department to
attend the convention of commission
ers and fire chiefs in Augusta, (la., on
Oct. 7. and that the expense of the trip
be defrayed by the city, hut the amount
must not exceed $50: for the erection
of a fire hydrant at the corner of Whee
ler avenue and Mulberry street; for the
placing of street signs at all Intersec
tions on Fellows and Luserne streets
wherever there are none at present;
that the city solicitor and the judiciary
committee be requested to ascertain If
a settlement satisfactory to the city
can be made with Jacob Pfelffer for
damages awarded him for grading Ox
ford street: awarding the contract for
the building of the approaches to the
Linden street bridge to King Cleary,
of Shenandoah, for the sum of tlN.0H.54;
the awarding of the contract for re
moving the Piatt building from the
line of the bridge approach to Peter

RAILROAD NOTES.
As an Instance, of the necessity of some
such legislation as Is proposed In the
J'ator-on pooling bill, It was staled at the
hoard of trade meeting last Monday nluhl
that one of the rensons why a prominent
and wealthy manufacturing eoneern
would not consent to transfer Its plant
from Cleveland. O., to this c'ty was that
sulphur, a commodity suppKed from New
York and of which they line an Immense
amount, ran be delivered to them cheaper
In Cleveland than here. Rcranton Is only
lt5 m'.les from New York, while Cleve
land Is about Siio miles distant.
The plan of the presidents of the south

once gave notice of a restoration !n rates,

the advance effective, the notice should
have beep given to the Interstate Com
merce commission on the Kith, that be'ng
the last day on which a ten-dnv notice as
required by law would be effective.

There was only one case tried in
common pleas court yesterday, that of
the elcranton Stove works against the
Lackawanna Lubricating company to
recover a debt of 'II was heard 'be
fore Judge lliiuster In the main court
rot.in and consumed the greater part of
the duy. .Attorney Charles H. Welles
lookeJ after the Interests of the stove
works, and 'Major Kverett Warren ap
pealed for the lubricating company.
A contract was entered Into by the
parties to the suit In 1X91, by the terms
of which the stove works was to cast
for the lubricating company Iron grease
cups and cylinder' lubricators. These
were furnished, but It was alleged that
tin y were not of the kind of iron speci
fied and therefore of no use to the de
fendant company, as they could not be
put In a lathe and turned ami finished.
It was alleged that on account of the
failure of the plaintiff to furnish the
right kind of Iron cups the defendant
was compelled to fill a large order, for
which they were Intended, with 'brans
cups that were much more expensive
and a large sum of money was lost In
consequence, A great deal of testi
mony pro and con was heard, and at
2.311 the case was given to the Jury on
Judge (lunster's charge. A verdict had
not been agreed uisiti at 4.30 p. m.

Before Judge iSearle, ill court room
No. 2, the trial of the suit of Thomas
'Monuhan against the borough of Blake
ly was resumed. The testimony of the
defense was to the effect that the land
owned by iMonahan lies In the course
of an old mountain stream and that
water gathered on It and covered It
long before the culvert was built, which
iMonahan contends made his land
valueless to him. 'Kx -Judge Ward made
the closing address to the Jury for the
defendant, and Attorney T. V. Powder
ly for the plaintiff. At 11 o'clock the
Jury retired and at 2.il0 filed Into court
wtth a verdict a warding. Monahan nom
Inal damages In the sum of $1. One of
the Jurors was opposed to giving the
plaintiff anything, and other wanted
to fix the amount at 6 cents.
It Is said that IMr. iMonuhan Is not
displeased with the verdict, as It set
tles, as well as a verdict 1,000 times
larger would, the principle that the
borough of Blakely damaged his prop
erty by the construction of the culvert
In question. It Is said that he will soon
bring suit to recover damages from the
time of the bringing of the suit just
tried to, date. A number of other prop
erty owners of Blakely who assert, as
iMosohan did, that the building of the
water way Injured their properties, will
also bring actions against the borough 1
of Blakely.
The Jury In the case of H. A. Dcpuy
against Jesse A. 'Brady returned a ver
dict, after court opened yesterday
morning, In favor of Depuy for the
sum of 139. In the case of Peter Con
roy and I. T. Keene, the Jury returned
a verdict In favor of the defendant.
It did not take the Jury long to agree
In the case of IMrs. Ann O'Grady, of the
