Kach branch of councils met last night and an unusually large number of measures were acted upon. This was made iiossible for two reasons nearly all the ordinances and resolutions were of a minor nature and did not In vite debate, and the members did not seem to be In a combative mood. In the common council Mr. Oliver's West l.ackuwannn avenue viaduct or dinance passed first and second read ings without debute and passed third reading in select council w-lth only slight opposition. The ordinance was introduced in the select branch last week Thursday by .XI r. Williams. When it was read In the common body last uight it was referred to committee with instructions for an Immediutc report and was then passed two readings. It provides that the iiuestlon of bonding the city JlnO.000 lor building the structure be voted upon at the coming election. Select Council in Detail. The Joint lire department committee reported favorably an ordlnunce In creasing the pay of permanent liremeti from rn to $6(1 per mouth was amended to apply only to men who hud served two years. The plans of Brown & Morris, ar chitect, for a building, for Nay Aug Hose company on Franklin avenue were recommended to the Joint tire depart ment committee provided the Ann In demnify the city against cost above $10,000. The plans were adopted with Mr. Manley's amendment that the ar chitects have no claim against the city until a proper ordinance has been passed by councils. The West Lackawanna avenue via duct which was recommitted to' the streets and bridges committee after passing two readings at the last meet ing was reported without recommenda tion. It passed third reading notwith standing Mr. Chittenden's objection against the wording of the measure establishing a certain location of the structure. His amendment to this ef fect whs defeated. Mayor Oonnell's nominations of Diaries Page, engineer; Charles Wln tersteln, stoker; and F.ugene L. Moyer and Henry Brown, permanent men of .Nay Aug Hose company were con llrmed. The Phoenix Bridge company was re fused a release from Its bond of $10,000 guaranteeing the city that thu Spruce street bridge should be properly con structed, itecently a test of the bridge resulted satisfactorily. A letter from MayorConnell stated that City Solicitor Torrey gave tbp opinion that the bridge company should not be released as Im perfections or omissions might be dis covered In the structure, and particu larly because the company agreed to keep the asphalt pave in good repair for live years. The muyor's letter was accompanied by that of the company. The request Was negatived. XVork for Estimates Committee. To the estimates committee was- re ferred a communication from the city engineer stating that the Cedar avenue bridge was too light to bear the weight of btickleplutes. additional trusses untl an nspliult 4uve; that the Lackawanna avenue bridge trusses were strong enough for such u pave, and the floor system too light. To the same commit tee was also referred the city engi neer's recommendation that $11,000 be appropriated for a retaining wall m the east side of Third avenue in the Sixth ward. i irdinances establishing the width, center and grade lines of North 'Main avenue between Pettebone and Wood streets and grunting Muldoon and Howe $i.ii40 for extra work on the Spruce street bridge approaches passed third reading. Mr. Lansing secured the passage on two rendlngs of an ordinance for elec tric lights in the Seventeenth ward us follows: On Mulberry street at Its In tersection with Taylor and Webster avenues, and at the corner of Vine street and Preseott ti venue. A resolution was udopted directing the city clerk to procure ji list of paid firemen, their terms of employment and pay. This Information will be used by the estimates committee and Is sought in view of the proposed increase of about J'.Ti.neO to maintain the lire de partment In ISM. Against Cement Sidewalks. No little discussion followed the In troduction of a resolution by Mr. Finn instructing the street commissioner to cover with plunk the cement sidewalk in front of Hill Council's store on Washington avenue and nil other ce ment sidewalks. Mr. I.iiuer offered nn amendment providing that such side walks be fenced In. During debate Mr. Chittenden called attention to the fact that for several years ordinances pro hibiting the const -net Ion of cement sidewalks hud been introduced and then killed or pigeon-holed. He snid delay is dangerous, as the city might be obliged to pny heavy damages for some person's injuries. Mr. Sanderson snid the amendment was ridiculous, us the city had no power to fence the sidewalks after permitting them to be laid. Mr. Latter argued for the fence amendment, which wns de feated by a vote of 5 to 8. as follows: Ayes-Finn, Thomas. Clark. Schwenk nnd Lauer; nays Williams, Hurr, Chit tenden, Manley, Sanderson, Lansing, Hums and Westpfalil. The original resolution was passed. City Treasure's llonl. An ordinance Introduced by Mr. Lauer provides that the city treasurer In future furnish a bond of $:!00.0ii0 in stead of JSu.ono. A resolution nlong the same line was adopted designating the following repositories for citv funt First National bank, Third National bank. Lackawanna Trust and Sufe De posit nomnany. Merchants' and Me chanics' bank and the Scranton Sav ings bank. From Alonzo T. Rutledge. of Damas cus. Wayne county, was received an application for payment of damages for injuries sustained In a runaway April 23 nf last year, when his horse became frightened at a stone crusher on North Main avenue. The matter was referred to the judiciary committee and the city solicitor. In "Common Council. Select council's approval of bills passed by the Joint auditing committee were further approved except the Frank Shiffer claim for work on the Thirteenth district sewer which select eouncll voted to refer to committee for Investigation. This action was concurred in. Sewer contracts approved by the se lect branch wereconcurred In as follows: P. T. Mulligan's proposal to build the Caisjuse avenue and Larch street lateral sewer for $1,250, and the Hydp Park and Swetland street aewer for $1,845, and the Penn avenue sewer between Oreen llldge and Delaware streets for $S65. Favorable action was taken on the upper body's resolution directing the city controller not to countersign any warrants for B. (1. Coon for work on the Thirteenth district sewer system until all claims for labor are paid. Select council's resolution directing the street commissioner to notify the Scranton Traction company to repair Elm street was concurred in, as was another measure directing the street commissioner to repair Meridian, Hampton and Eynon streets. Favorable action was taken on the select council's resolution directing: the city engineer to make plans and estl- mate of cost for a pipe drain on Cedar avenue from Kim street to Stafford Meadow Hrook. Mr. Keller's resolution authorizing i property owners to construct a sewer ! In Kelluin court from Mulberry street south to connect With the Tenth dis trict main sewer wus adopted. A resolution directing the city engi neer to prepare plans und estimate of cost for opening irice street between Bromley and Sumner avenues was adopted. Select council's resolution on the Providence and Abington Turnpike company controx-ersy was amended. The original resolution provided for a special committee of three to gather duta upon the matter in conjunction xvith Attorney 8. B. I'rlce. the city so licitor, the street commissioner and city engineer. The amendment pro vided that three of select council be ap pointed on the commission nnd tne chair appointed Messrs. Noone, Sea mans and Morris. Have Kcachcd Third Ucadins Ordinances were passed on llrst and second readings as follows: v.ommon council ordinances providing that gates be erected nnd maintained by the Jer sey Central itallroad company at Its Broadway crossing, and by the Dela ware and Hudson comnany nt its Dodgetown bridge crossing: common council ordinances providing for a permanent mnn ench for Phoenix Chemical and Niagara Hose companies; providing for a grnde on North Main avenue, between Jones and Putnam streets, and fixing the pay of the city assessors at $4 oer day each for each working day after April 1: select coun cil ordinance providing that Contrac tors Muldoon & Bowie be paid $2,040 for extra work on the Spruce street bridge. On third reading ordinances were passed as follows: Common council ordinance for the establishment of a grade on Larch street, between San derson and Copouse avenues; select council ordlnnrtee forbidding the laying of cement sidewalks nnd authorizing the street commissioner to tear up such sidewalks If not removed on a notice of thirty days. An adjournment was made to next Thursduy. THEY ASK LARGE DAMAGES. Ilcckcr llrothers Sue the Ownsrs of the lllinirn Telegram for M).)0o John J. Becker and Albert F. Becker, cigar manufacturers of the West Side, through their attorneys. R. II. Shurt leff nnd C. Comegys, began a libel suit yesterday In the olllce of Prothonotary I'ryor against the Telegram Printing company, of Klrnlra, N. Y with dam ages named in the sum, of $50,000. The plaintiffs are ow'ners of a large brick building, suitable for their busi ness und for dwelling purposes, situ ated on Uobinson street. Last Sunday, Jan. 5. 1S!6, the Klmirn Telegram in the West Side department, under a headline. "The Midway," printed the following extract: "There is a structure on the Jlldwny that should be torn down and some suitable building erected on the site. It Is that ramshackle of n building re cently erected by the Becker Bros. It has been the scene of mnny drunken brawls nnd many a time the police were called there to subdue the occupants. It Is a disgrace to the West Side, and should be torn down nt once. While the plot of pround is a triangular one, still a BUitaiile building could be erect ed thereon, tha't could lie used for many purposes." The plaintiffs nllege that the publica tion of the foregoing paragraph hus greatly Injured their good name and reputation, nnd brought them Into pub lic scandal. Infamy and disgrace among their neighbors. ' P. A. Barrett. Scran I on agent of the Telegram, explained that Inadvertent ly the words, "alongside of the new brick building." were left out of the last parugrnph after the word "erected." This wns (he fault of the compositor and proof render, and if it appeared as It wus written In the copy, the sentence would have been ns follows: "It is '.hat ramshackle of a building alongside if the new brick building recently erected by the Becker broth ers." The matter to which exception Is taken appeared in the West Side de partment r.nd xvas not written by Mr. Barrelt. BIG HUE AT (UAPHANT. Property Valued nt SI 9,(100 Destroyed Yesterday Morning. Shortly after 3 o'clock yesterday morning lire broke out In the hotel and undertaking establishment owned by John Swallow. on the "fiats," at ly pliant, and soon the whole building wus enveloped in (lames. The general store of B. Ko senfeld, which xvere only a few feet from the burning1 building, quicsly caught lire and burned fiercely. The Kxcelslor Hose enmpuny by this time arrived on the scene and directed their attention to saving the adjoining prop erly. The fire had gained sreat headway, and It looked as though the whole block would be wiued out An alarm was then sounded from the electric light house for outside help and the Wilson Hose company of lVcki in.. put in an appearance and did effectual worn in suuuuing the liames. but not before three buildings were totallv consumed and the fourth partially de- i troyed. Oreat excitement prevailed ! among the Hungarian element for a I time, and the street was lined xvith household effects. The total loss Is summed 'tip to be about $15,000. Mr. Rosenfeld carried $2,000 Insurance on his building; his stock was also insured. Mr. Swallow also carried Insurance. Cll AUGi: I) WITH (jAMI)LIN(j.
