OLYPIIAXT LHilIT MIDDLE.
Opinion Handed lbit by JuJaa Aroh-
hald with Reference lo It.
Last August J. M. Si henck. R. J.
fialliigher and Dominick Howard, three
citizen! of olytihant .by their attor
neys, I. H. Burns and T. J. Duggan, be
gan an action in equity to restrain the
burgess and town council from making
any further progress with the work of
constructing a new electric light plant.
The ground on which the action wan
taken nlleged that no ordinance had
been parsed permitting the Improve
ment: that the contracts for the new
plant were let to bidders whose price
was excessive; that the council was
practically throwing away the old plant
which, according to. the complainants,
was worth $3,000 and good enough for
the town.
The court granted a preliminary In
junction to restrain the work from pro
gressing. The injunction was contin
ued uuon a hearing on the ground that
the improvement was not authorized by
a n ordinance. Tho defendants on
March "6 last, by their attorneys,
Mnjor Everett Warren and Hon. O. P.
O'Malley, aked that the injunction be
dl."f jived, setting forth that the coun
cil In the meanwhile hnd passed an
ordinance and compiled with all the
legal requirements necessary.
BONDS WERE FLOATED.
After passing the ordinance bonds
were floated to pa v for the Improve
ment, and It was the Intention not to
take any cognizance of the equity suit
at all as the thing on which the court
granted the Injunction was because no
ordinance hnd been smssed. The New
York firm that took the bonds wanted
to have the record In this court cleared
of the Injunction proceedings. That is
why the application wns made to have
the injunction dissolved.
It was here discovered that Mr.
Burns had Judgment entered against
the defendants because they had not
filed an answer within fourteen days,
and that from the time of the bringing
of the bill in equity he had not moved
In the matter at all but allowed it to
rest. Judge Archhald handed flown an
opinion yesterday dissolving the pre
liminary Injunction and In It he says:
It whs intimated at the argument of this
rule that the defendants were entitled to
have Ilie preliminary Injunction dissolved
Tor want of a due prosecution of the Fidt.
The plaintiffs' counsel thereupon, behind
the bHi-ks of every bedy, entered an order
in Ihe prothonoiuiy'L' ntllce to have the tit 1 1
tali-n pro loufesic for want of an an
swer. V.e have already expressed out
opinion on the character of this pra -tire,
mid we will say n Ihing further here. At
the case stcod at the return of the rule
the defendants were entitled to have the
preliminary injunction dissolved. Plain
tiffs, after obtaining It hud, lain by fot
seven months, content to have the in
junction hold down their opponents as
thoiiKh nothing iron- was to be expect
ed of themselves. This may be the eon
ctptiou of otiullv which some have, but
It is not thin whiih prevails in the breast
of a chancellor. The awarding of a pre
liminary injunction i an extraordinary
remedy and is interim utory merely, and
the want of due il!l';ence ill bringing tho
case lo tin Issue is a well recoKiiiztil
ground for Tit solving it.
AXSWEKfl HAS NOW fO.ME IX.
In ad. Ill lull to this the answer hus now
come 111, the pro confesso order huvlim
been set aside to allow of It. In it ihe
defendants dtry ail the charges niatlu m
the hill, except Ihe one with regard tc
the action of the council being by resolu
tion Instead of by ordinance. While It is
conceded I iy this that no ordinance wis
originally passed. It is now asserteC
that this defect has been remedied and
proper action taken. If that he true, wall
the bringing of tile bill and the issuing of
the preliminary Injunction hased upon It.
may have been justltled, there Is no longei
occasion for staying the hands of the
municipal authorities In this summary
manner.
That which was wanting In this respect,
has been now, as It would seem, supplied,
and if this appears at the llnal hearing, as
it now appears by the answer, only a con
ditional decree or one without prejudice
would at tho most be entered. The pen
dency of tile hill will suttlclently protect
the rights of the plaintiffs meanwhile.
The rule is made absolute and the pre
liminary Injunction is dissolved.

Opinio! of Judge Kuff ingtoi in Hover
Trespass Suit.
WHY THE ACTION WAS BROUGHT
It la Alleged That Members of the Koycr
Family IHcd Because of tho Insan
itary Condition of tho Home
They Lived in.
City Solicitor Torrey yesterday re
ceived an opinion from Judge Humng
ton of the t'nlted States circuit court
in which the defendant's demurrer 111
the trespass suit of Harriet U lioycr
and others agains. W. tiibson Jones,
of this city, and Colonel Meredith 1-
Jones, of New York, is sustained. i
The Buyer family occupied a house
rented from the defendants. The fath
er of the family died of typhoid fever;
the mother died soon afterward, and
one or two of the children ulso sue- ;
cumbed to the dread disease. It was al
leged that the unsanitary condition of
the premises had ail to do with breed
ing disease and a suit for large dam
ages was brought against th. defend
ants. Attorney U P. Wedeinnn repre
sented the Itoyer children. City Solic
itor Torrey represented the defendants
and incidentally the city and he tiled
a demerrer to the declaration of the
plaintiff. The opinion of Judge 15uf
flngton sustaining the demurrer Is us
fid lows:
THE Jl'DCiE'S OPINION.
"This Is a demurrer to the plaintiffs
declaration on three grounds. First,
that the ordinances of the city of
Scranton and the rules of the board of
health are not properly pleaded: sec
ondly, assuming they are properly
pleaded, they do not sustain plaintiff's
case; and lastly, that plaintiff's decla
ration does not set forth a valid cause
of action.
"The grounds upon which plaintiffs
seek to recover are not set forth In the
declaration with clearness;' possibly
they may be Inferred or gathered from
It to be that defendants owned a house
and lot at Scranton which they leased
to plaintiffs' parents as a dwelling: that
there was a privy vault on the prem
ises; that by the ordinances and health
rules of the city of Scranton a connec
tion was required between the vault
and the city sewer; that no such con
nection existed and defendants leased
the premises to plalntiifs' parents, who
were ignorant of the lack of such a
connection: that by reason of the negli
gence of the defendants in failing to
onnect with the sewer and by main
taining and keeping a privy vault with
a discharge and leakage on the prem
ises, the father of the plaintiffs sick
ened and died on the premises during
his occupancy.
Waiving for present purposes all
question as to the ordinances being
properly pleaded and considering them
as before us In extenso, we still think
the demurrer must be sustained.
NOT OF ITSELF UNLAWFUL.
"A cess pool upon a city lot is not In
itself unlawful, Philadelphia vs. Provi
dent Trust Co.. 132 Pa. St. 224, Wunder
vs. McLean, 134 Pa. St. 330; Improper
use of it Is what gives It an unlawful
character. The ordinances in question
do not prohibit their use (except In cer
tain locations not pertinent to the pres
ent case) but simply provide for their
cgulation under certain conditions. We
have been referred to no ordinance
which makes a sewer connection for
the cess pool on the premises now con
cerned obligatory. There was, there
fore, no breach per se of law or duty
on the landlord's part In renting the
piemises with the cess pool upon them.
The lease executed provides that the
lessee shall keep the premises In good
rejiair, remove from them all accumu
lations of filth of every kind and keep
the privy neat and clean during the
term. Such being the case, the duty
rested upon the tenant, as between him
and the landlord, of keeping the vault
in proper order. And apart from his
contract this would seem to, lie his im-
puea amy ns wen. eow vs. ttooerts,
108 Pa. St. 402. If, therefore, the sick
ness and death of plaintiffs' father re
sulted from the contents of the vault
flowing out upon the surface, the in-
Jury was the result of a failure on his
part to perform his bounden duty of
seeing that the vault was cleaned out
and did not overllow.
AKE VAOI E AND GENERAL.
"While the declaration alleges the
lease was 'fraudulently and deceitful
ly' made, these allegations are of such
a vague and general nature and there
is such an absence of specific fact and
detail that us bearing on the question
of fraud we are justified in disregard
ing them. Beech s Modern Equity.
Practice sec. 10t ; Ambler vs. Choteuu,
107 C. S. E90.
"That no injustice Is done the plain
tiff by this construction will appear
from t lie fact which was stated by
counsel at bur that the lease was ori
ginally made In tin fall and after the
family lived in the house until the tirst
of April following, the premises were
again released by the instrument of
which a copy was tiled. Manifestly, If
there had' been any fraud or deceit In
the tirst lease, plaintiffs would have
discovered it before the second was en
tered into.
"In addition thereto the second lease
contained ijo stipulation that the prem
ises were In a tenantable condition and
there Is no implied covenant at com
mon law by the landlord that such is
the case. Doyle vs. I'nlon Pacific It. R.
