CONSTP.VCTED A IUM.
From time to time the towns along
the river from White Haven to Kaston
began using water from either the
canal or r'.ver for one purpose or an
other. Sumo time prior to October.
ISM, the Scranton Ons and Aater com
imnv imrclinsed a lai'ire tract of land
along the Lehigh at Gouldsboro in this
couiitv, and In tK tober the construction
of a large dam on this tract of land
was begun. It Is now nnisneu ami
about lorty ntrcn are submerged by
water of an average deptn or cignt
feet. The water from this dam is
pumped by means of a large pumping
station through a 2-foot pipe line 7.M0
feet lonir, to the head waters of the
Routing brook down which the water is
carried to this city and used In supply
ing the people of Scranton and vicinity.
When the purpose or tne uas unu
Water company ws disclosed the
equity suits were Instituted, first in
Wayne county. In which place It was
decided that this county was the prop
er place to bring such action. Accord
ingly the papers were nieu nere lasi
Xnveinher. The lilaintilTs desired the
Oas and Water company to be enjoined
from taking any of the wster or tne
l.ehiirh. Thev aliened that the legis
lature granted the Lehigh company the
exclusive light to all the water of the
river, and the taking uwty ctr a iniriiou
of it by the Oas and Water company
was diminishing the supply and by that
causing a loss to the people along tho
Hver to Kaston. who at certain period
of the year would not have enough for
their use.
The Oas and water company an
swered the bill of complaint by saying
thnt thev purchased a large acreage
of land In Uouldsboro, :id by virtue of
a rlaht that no one can deny them,
they built a dam upon It. That they
proposed simply to have It as a storage
reservoir and to fill It In time or rresnet
and high water, not to Interfere with
the ordinary and common flow of the
strenm. That this water' which they
would store in their dams would he
gathered instead of being allowed to
go to waste. They have a riparian
right and they were only availing them
selves of it Is what they claim
WATER IS LEASED.
Superintendent Ruddle, of the ennuis
of the Lehigh Coal and Navigation
company, who lives In Mauch Chunk,
was the first witness calied. The testi
mony wb.i taken by Court Stenographer
H. H. Coston. Mr. liuuuie explained
how the water is leased from hlte
Haven to Easton. The town of White
Haven depends largely on the liver for
industry and solely ror water supply
A considerable portion of the men are
employed in storing Ice which forms on
dams Fiioplicd from tne river. Aiaucn
Chunk depends upon the Lehigh for
llirhtina and street car service.
Lehlghton and Wclssport derive pow
er for lighting and for planing and lum
ber mills. At Parryvllle there are rui''
naces; at Cntasauqua tho town Is sup
.)l'ed and so is the Crane Iron works
and so on down to EaBton, the towns
and villages ore dependent largely
noon the water of the river. Mr. Hud
die said the water was so low In the
cancls a part of last year that it was
din cult to earn' on ousincfs.
W, F. Yarrlngton, civil engineer of
the Lehigh company, was called to give
testimony concerning tho location of
the dam at C.ouldsboro.
Superintendent" Neyer. of the Uethle
hem South (las and water company
testified that the company is a lessee
of the Lehigh company and there is no
other source of water supply in Hethle-
hem than the liver.
A. S. Schropp, secretary of the Helh
lehem Iron company for the past thir
ty-two years, was examined. He testl
fled that the works oover nn area one
and one Quarter miles in length by
quarter of a mile wide nnd usually em
nloy 4.&W men.- ine worns use it.wu,
000 gallons of water every twenty-four
hours and the only source of supply Is
the canal or river. There Is a small
spring, he said, from which drinking
water is piped, but the Lehigh Is the
only source for. manufacturing pur
poses. .
OTHER TESTIMONY.
Superintendent Ruddle was recalled
and gave some statistics about horse
power and volume, etc. Justice Hand
asked him what effect it would have on
the Lehigh Btream If it takes only fiv
hours to fill the dam of the fias and
Water company during a winter flood,
Mr. Kuddle thought the effect would be
very slight.
Jerome Scott, or white Haven, was
heard. He Is 58 years old, and In his
early days he navigated the . Lehigh
river. He was in the log business, and
by means of natural and artificial
Hoods carried his logs down sream. The
volume of water has greatly diminished
since then. In those days the floods
were more gradual and prolonged; now
they come with a rush and disappear
quickly. He ascribes It to the cutting
away of the forest. Then It was
wilderness of timber, now it is almost
Dare.
Samuel Wallace, one of the plain
tiffs, wan the last witness called. He
simply testified that it Is essential for
the people of White Haven to be sup.
plied without any diminution from the
present volume. The hearing will be
resumed at 8 o'clock this morning.
when the plaintiffs will offer further
evidence. '

fesynr HowclL He did not make a
Bpeech. but simply contented himself
with naming his choice. A. L. Fran
cols and T. J. Jennings seconded the
nominal ten.
Mr. Jennings said that It was his
privilege svvernl months ago to nom
inate Professor Howell for the olllce
which he has sinco filled with such
ability. It gave him great pleasure now
to second the proposition to re-elect
him frr three years. Professor Howell,
he said, wan a profound Bcbolar, a great
disclpllnnrinn and a man who possessed
tho wuajp of his convic.tlens. He
would. bring the schevols of this city to a
standard of efficiency second to none In
the stnto. John Casey moved that the
nominations clone, and as no one evinc
ed a disposition to name any one to
oppose Pi-ofcssor Howell, tho motion
was agreed to.
"How will we vote for the candidate,"
asked the chairman.
"Call the yeas and nays," promptly
replleel W. J. Welsh, the member from
the Ninth.
This was done and when I he Ninth
ward was reached Sir. Welsh arose
and said that he would probably be the
only one to vote against Professor
Howell, but, nevertheless, he wanted
his vote r 'corded against him.
"Vote for some one," chimed In Her
man Nctz.
"I don't have to," somewhat warmly
replied Mr. Welsh turning toward Mr.
Nots. "I might vote for you, but then
you'd be a very poor substitute, so I
won't do it."
Mr. Notz laughed, Mr. Welsh
thumped Hie desk nd with a "record

When the roll call was finished It was
disclosed '.hat nil of the members had

; C. Toy lor was re-elected yesterday
i morning for three years, and his salary
j was raised from $2,000 a year to $3,000.
Mr. Taylor'u election was unanimous,
! but the vote on the proposition to ln

and it engaged and puzzled the dlrect-
i ois for an hour.

SALARY QUESTION.
The salary question was first taken
up. Griffith T. Davis, of Greenwood,
president of the Lackawanna township
district, advecated an increase for the
superintendent. Mr. Davis explained
that the annual expenses amounts to
$S00 and when this is taken from his
salary it reduces It very much. The
business of the schools has Increased
so much with the past seven or eight
years thnt it Is only Just, he said, that
a corresponding increase should be
made In the pay of the officer who de

This was amende-d to $3,000. Hefore

that 63 voted In favor of the increase

a vigorous kick against the vote. Ha
