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 Ktipp for the material of which the building Is composed.
