Mutter of Sewer on the South Side
Is Agreed I'pon.
EXTENSION OF CHERRY STREET
That Improvement Is to Bo Urged for a
Number of K.asous Mr. P.
Judge Chosen Pr.aid.nl
' of lb. Board.
An Interesting meeting of the South
Side board of trade was held last eve
ning. President C. O. Uulund called
tin? session to order untl being forced
to unswer uu engagement elsewhere
he staked the Indulgence of- the nicm-Lm-i-h
and withdrew. John Hcheuer pie-
ltl-ii the remainder of the meeting.
The Hewer uuestlon wus brought un-
cl-i- discussion by him. He advocated
tliiit the South r! de be rearranged in
different lines for a sewer district.
cie-u.tln;i a new one which will embrace
tin Nineteenth und Twentletn warus.
una that portion of tho Kleventu not
already sewered. This idea met with
general approval nnd was discussed in
commendatory terms. The Twelfth
ward will ! entirely eliminated from
the sewer district.
The residents of that ward have been,
with few exceptions, opposed to a sew
er, ixnd by leaving them out there will
be an unanimous feeling In Its favor
among the persons who will have to
stand the expense of constructing It.
On Mr. Bcheuer's motion the commit
tee, on sewetB, which consists of C. W.
Westpfahl, SI. P. Judge. P. A. Cava,
naugh. S. 8. Spruks, Christian Storr
and Jlr. Scheuer, who was added to It,
will confer with the sewers and drains
committee of councils and City En
gineer Phillips with reference to the
matter.
In the views expressed by the mem
bers who took part in the discussion it
was the general Bentiinent that the
South Side is sadly In need of better
streets and a Bewcr.
STREET IMPROVEMENT.
Another branch of this subject was
Introduced by D. P. Murray, who re
ported that a committee of the South
Scranton Wheelmen's club has been at
work for some time making prepara
tions for a public meeting at Oermania
hall for the purpose of agitating street
Improvement. The board of trade Is
win kins- In conjunction with the
Wheelmen's club on this matter, and
th? committees of both will nieet next
Monday evening at 7.30 at Oermania
hall to fix the date and transact what
ever else is needed. One of the speak
ers at the public meeting will be A.
1J. Dunning, Jr., ex-county surveyor,
an ardent enthusiast on this subject.
The main purpose of the meeting is
to prove to the taxpayers that it is as
cheap to have good roads as poor ones
If you go ubout It In the right way.
Mr. Judge spoke in favor of the move
ment and believed that public meet
ings in all the wards would result ben
eficially. The Idea was advanced that
the board should advocate the expen
diture of ward appropriations by the
street commissioner and the taking
away from cotincllmen all power of
employing men on the streets.
OPENINO OP CHERRY STREET.
The opening of Cherry street to South
Washington avenue was considered and
the secretary was instructed to com
municate with the city oltiiials and
urge that the ordinance recently passed
but Inoperative as yet because tho Dela
ware and- Hudson Railroad company
has neglected to comply with its provi
sions, be respected by the company and
a move made to comply with Its provi
sion without further delay. The or
dinance provides that the platform at
the Steel Works station, being built on
Cherry street, be at once removed in
order that the street may be opened.
The ordinance removes the rrosging
from where it now is, between Fig and
Cherry streets, and places it at the ex
tension of Cherry street. The members
in discussing the motion all agreed that
It la a crying shame to permit the
condition at this crossing to remain as
it has so long. There are upwards of
l.f.OO girls employed in the Kauquoit silk
mill, and for their protection Jhe streets
ought to be changed. The girls coming
out of the factory in winter evenings
are tempted to get on the railroad
tracks to get off the muddy street, and
they risk the danger of getting run
down by passing trains.
MK. JUDOE PRESIDENT.
It has bepn tho custom In the past to
nominate olllcers in March and elect
In April. Tho manner of 'choosing offi
cers Is discretionary and the usual rule
waa discarded Jast night. Nominations
were made and election followed. M. P.
Judge was nominated and elected
president, und will make-a most ef
ficient and careful ofllcer. Mr. Bolahd
declined a re-election, which wus
pressed upon him. M. J. O'Toole. who
has tilled the position of secretary lor
two years with ability and uniform
court ksy, prefers to go batk on the floor
of t he organization.
Thomas A. Dunuhue, of the Truth,
waa chosen to succeed lilni. Mr. Dona

doubt. Michael Miller was re-elected

POLITICAL CHIT-CHAT.
The announcement In The Tribune
that the friends of Natlonul Chnlrmun
liuriity do not propose to sit down nnd
calmly allow their favorite to be given
u slap by the Lackawanna delegation
has kept the political gosslpers busy
for th lust two days, and the matter
has been argued and discussed in all of
Its many-sided phases. The men who
were elected Tuesday night uppear to
scout the Idea that anything like u sorir
ous effort will be made to contest their
Beau In a state convention. Said one
of them yesterduy who assisted In elect
ing them: "No matter what talk may
be Indulged in about Postmaster F. M.
Vundliui; having credentials to repre
sent the First Legislative district in the
state convention he hua no right what
ever to warm u seat In that body for
the reason that he was not elected dur
ing the yeur in which the convention
will be held us required by the state
rules. Another matter to be consid
ered Is thut it will be Impossible. I ven
ture to say, to elect Hurrlty delegutes
In the legislative district of the county
even if it was legal to do so, which I
very seriously question."
The selection of Martin J. Cadden for
the position of state committeeman to
succeed ex-Sheriff: Robinson was a sur
prise to a large number of men who
thought they possessed Inside informa
tion. Mr. Caddon is a very young mail',
but has done a good deal of work for his
party. He Is a member of the present
Democratic city committee and was
elected to represent one of the Thir
teenth ward districts in the county con
vention of last fail. Unable to attend
the meeting, he named W. J. Hurke, of
the Ninth ward, who Is a relative of his,
as his substitute. - An effort was made
to deny Mr. Burke a Beat In the con
vention, which created a storm that
threw the convention Into a tumult for
the time. As a result ol the outcome
of that convention Mr. Cadden has been
made a member of the state committee.
The principal duty that will devolve on
him is to assist in the selection of a
chairman of the state committee. By
virtue of his otllce as chairman of the
county committee, James J. O'Neill, of
Carbondale, is also a member of the
state committee. About April 1 Its
members will meet to select a successor
to Robert E. Wright, of Allentown, the
present state chairman, and then Lacka
wanna will have to show her hand, po
litically speaking. Besides the state
chairman, the Lackawanna members
of the committee will assist in the elec
tion of a chairman for the seventh divi
sion, comprising all of this part of the
state. John M. Claim an, of Luserne, at
present tills the olllce and is said to be
ambitious to succeed himself.
. In the selection of Mr. Cadden as state
committeeman many of the local Dem
ocrats see the plain imprint of the hand
of W. J. Burke. The latter would like
the assistance of llarrlty in his fight
with Herring, It Is said, but realizing
that the national chairman would na
turally . help rather than hurt the
Bloomsburg stutesman, Mr. Burke lies'
set himself to work to bring about' a
condition of affairs that will cause the
national chalrmun to keep dear of the
tight entirely. If this can be done
Burke's friends say that Herring win
have to go. Securing a member of the
state committee favorable to Ids pur
pose was Burke's first adroit move in
this direction. Others will follow.
There is much speculation about the
Identity of the two men who will be
named as delegates to the natonal con
vention from this county. If the dele
gates named Tuesday night get seats in
the state convention the present indi
cations are mat they will name Joseph
O'Brien as one of the national dele
gates. Others who are mentioned in
connection with the honor are ex-Sheriff
John J. Pa hey, ex-Congressman
Lemuel Amermun. Mayor-elect James
fl. Bailey. County Treasurer Charles
Hchadt and John J. O'Boyle. Some of
the prophets predict that the national
delegates will be Mr. Fahey and Mr.
Schadt. Four years ago Colonel P. J.
Pitzsimmons and F. M. Vundlipg were
the national delegates from this county
and Charles Robinson was chosen as
one of the delegates-at-large. It Is not
likely that Lackawanna will get a dele-gate-at-large
this year, as Luzerne
claims the distinction of naming the
man from this part of the state.
The Democrats of common council
will caucus on March P. J. Nealis
nnd James J. drier are the leading can
didates for chairman.
THREE HlXE ACCIDENTS.
On. of Them Is Kxpcct.d to Remit
Fatally-Anoth.r May l.o.o III. Might

Three mine accident rases, were re
ceived at the Lackawanna hospitul yes

Joseph Voejeck. l.'ollsh. 32 years old,
and married was fatally Injured In the
Jermyn mine at Peckvllle. His back

of the severe injuries he .(allied. His
wife und family are In the old country.
Peter MnchatiiH. of Harboi town, was
the third one. He Is X years old. nnd

SGRAHTOH MEN ACTIVE
They Puuired Extensively in the
Heading Municipal Convention.
MR. TORRET GIVEN FIRST PLACE
lie Is Made Chairman of tb. Permanent
Commit!., of City Solicitors Which
Will Pram. Amendment.- Talk,
on th. Work of th. Convention.
The Scranton delegation to the Read
lug convention returned yesterday,
well satisfied with the work that was
done there. As indicated in the United
Press reports Scranton figured exten
sively in the doings of the convention.
City Solicitor Torrey was madechulr
nian of the executive committee, coin
IMjHed ot the city solicitors of all the
cities represented, which is the prin
cipal otlU-t. within the gift of the con
vention. The Scranton delegutes did
some quiet work towards having Mr.
Torrey made chairman of the conven
tion, mid hud succeeded In winning
over the committee on Humiliations, but
Just bufore the committee retired to
riume Us report Mr. Torrey hud his
name withdrawn, us un uct of courtesy
to the Reading people who wanted one
of their men honored with the petition.
The outcome of ulTulis showed that this
was the best urrangemeiit after all, for
as stated above Mr. Torrey was given
the moat Important position created by
the convention. This committee bus
been called to meet In this city on May
2fi. It will then proceed to frame what
ever amendment it is proposed to hus'e
introduced at the next session ui tne
legislature. .
WORK OP THE CONVENTION.
Mr. Torrey, when seen yesterday af
ternoon by a Trtbun . veporter, gave
the following Interesting resume of tho
work of the convention:
"There Were fifteen cities represent
ed In the convention by about seventy
delegates. The convention having no
deflulto formulated business to trans
act, its work was necessarily prelim
inary and tentative. It was recognized
that It would, be Impossible to ade
quately discuss such changes In the
municipal law as might be desired by
the numerous delegates in such a con
vention without any previous formula
tion of the changes. The convention,
therefore, at its llrst session, after or
ganizing, appointed a committee to rec
ommend an order of business for the
convention and a scheme of future
work. Of this committee Scranton was
accorded tint chairmanship. At its
meetings upon Thursday, the conven
tion udopted the report of this com
mittee, which provided that the city
solicitors of all the cities in the state
should constitute a committee to which
should be referred all proposed chungeB
in the municipal law, and which com
mittee should formulate such changes
iu proper form for presentation to the
legislature, and. submit them to an ad
journed meeting of the convention,
which was fixed to be held in WllllamH
port. This recommendation was adopt
ed and the city solicitors present in the
convention organized by electing the
city solicitor of Scranton as Its chair
man, and the city solicitor of Chester,
Mr. Cochran, as recording secretary,
and City Solicitor Stuart, of Carbon
dale, corresponding secretary, and the
first meeting of the committee was
called at Scranton on the 26th of Slay.
The remainder of tho sessions of the
convention of Thursday were occupied
In the brief presentation by delegates
of such complaints and criticisms of
the practical working of the municipal
act of 1&S, as It had discovered by
them, and as to which changes were
desired.
SENTIMENT NOT RADICAL.
It may safely be said that the general
sentiment of the convention was rather
conservative than radical, and that it
was not deemed wise to throw over
board the frame of municipal govern
ment which we now hi've, and which in
many particulars has proved to be sat
isfactory, and which has been for over
twenty years in use, and. has been
twice within thnt time entirely revised
nnd frequently amended, and which
has In many of Its provisions been al
ready construed and Its meaning fixed
by tho decisions ot the courts, and
strike out uuon some new scheme of
municipal government, based upon the
ories, however plausible, of the advan
tages to be derived from the change.
A great deal was said In the conven
tion and In the nrwiapersith ref
erence to "home rule" for cities, but
It wus dilTlcult to understand precisely
what was meant by that phrase, inns
much as there Is and has b-en since
the constitution of 1K74 no special leg
islation for cities, and therefore no leg
islative interference with local self
government. There wus a frequently
expressed desire to secure a greater de
gree of flexibility in the act ho that It
might be adapted more perfectly to the
wants of the largest and the smallest
cities of the class; and there is no doubt
thai In many of the changes which may
be made such flexibility will be secured,
so far as it is practicable to accom
plish it under general legislation. It
was found among the representatives of
the cities assembled that the matters
which give the most uunoyance und
anxiety with them as in Scranton,
were not so much the result of
defects In past legislation orequlre
ments for new legislation, ns they were
In constitutional restrictions upon any
legislation as the constitution is inter
preted by the supreme court, so that up
on those subjects the cities, the conven
tion and the legislature are all equally
powerless to accomplish any benellciul
results. A large number ot matters
were suggested nd cursorily discussed,
which will be incorported in sugges
tions for amendments to the municipal
uct. and muny of which would no doubt
be of advantage to the cities.
The members of the convention were
most generously and hospitably enter
tained by the council und citizens of
Rending, and a bounteous dinner' wits
tendered them at the Mineral Springs
park, belonging to the city, on Thurs
day afternoon, and only the blizzard
prevented ono or two short excursions
which hud been planned and arranged
for."

considering the applications for liquor
licenses; at o'clock this morning they

That some will not be granted is be
yond doubt, but the court has not given
