THEY PROPOSE TO RATIFY.
Local Democrats Are Planning for a
Demonstration.
Local Democrats are hopeful that
Candidate Bryan will come to Scranton.
City Treasurer C. G. Boland feels quite
confident that the great orator will be
heard in this city. Plans are being
discussed for a ratification meeting,
and If Mr. Bryan can come the meeting
will be held on that night, which will be
a date suitable to him.
There will be a ratification meeting
without fall whether Mr. Bryan comes
or not, but what la busying the silver
Ites hero at present Is the organization
of a Scranton party to go to New York
the night of the notification meeting.
The time when the Notification meet
ing will be held has not been definitely
fixed, but it will be made known In a
few days, The meeting will be held as
suredly In New York, end probably in
1"hs than a fortnight. While the work
of organising a club to go to New York
will be In progress, an eye will also be
kept open to the arrangement for the
ratification meeting here.
Mr. Bryan spoke about lecturing In
the New England states first and the
Eastern and Middle states afterward.
The probability Is that he, will hold a
conference with the party leaders In
New York after the notification meet
ing, at which time an Itinerary will be
arranged. Some of the local lenders
will be on hand whon the schedule is
being mapped out to pren'ent claims
for Scranton. No pains will be spared
to bring him here. In a few days u call
will be Issued to the Democrats for a
meeting to begin the work of arrange
ments. The mn tier will not take defl
ate shape before next wo';k.

WITHDREW HIS COUSIN'S NAME
Then Made a Charge Against a
Republican Appointee, Intimntlug
That More Are to Followlppcr
Branch Sits Down on a Number of
to in in on Council's Pet Schemes,
Including the Suppression of Luuch
n ugons.
It was prophesied that last night's
select council meeting would be an In
teresting one and It was. It was more
Interesting than anyone had fore
shadowed. There were Beveral un
locked for developments and one of
them was of a sensational character.
When Clerk Lavelle had finished
reading the minutes, Mr. Roche aroe
and announced that he had a commu
nication which the mayor had asked
him to present under certain contingen
cies. These contingencies having arisen
he said, he would present the commu
nication at that time If there was no
objection. There being none he handed
up the following which the clerk read:
To the Honorable the Select Council, City
of Scranton:
Centlemen At the request of the appli
cant hereby withdraw from your con
sideration tho name of John C. Roche for
the position of patrolman.
James O. Bailey, Mayor.
On motion of Mr. Chlttendsn the
nomination was returned to the mayor.
A mlnut? later, when the police com
mittee was making Us report. Mr. Roche
arose and said:
"I wish to call the attention of the
police committee to the fact that one of
their Republican patrolmen, Joseph
Block, was drui.k and exposed his per
son on Cupouse uvenue, the night of the
storm."
"Do you make that In the shape of a
charge?" asked Chairman Sanderson.
"Yes, I lay It before the police com
mittee." answered Mr. Ruche.
Mr. Chittenden moved that the clerk
mal:c a minute of the charge and notify
the police committee of it. This motion
prevailed.
Mr. ftoehc then r.iad? s.mie remarks
tp the effect that he "would do it every
mrettng," ant! left 'lie council loom In
anytbi'ig sae lilu umial cool, calm tem
perament. GEORGE HORN NAMED.
The mayor sent in the name of George
S. Horn to succeed Colonel E. II. Ripple
on the board of health. Under the rules
It went to committee for two weeks. Mr.
Chittenden suggested that the commit
tee confer with the city solicitor to as
certain If there was a vacancy, but he
withdrew Ills' suggestion when Mr.Wag
ner explained that there was no doubt
about a vacancy In this case, as Colonel
Ripple's term had expired. Colonel
Ripple Is merely holding over until his
successor is appointed. Mr. Chittenden
said he knew there was some difficulty
about vacancies and supposed he had
got this one mixed up with some other
case, referring possibly to Dr. Paint's
case.
The appointment of Fred C. K alius as
patrolman was favorably reported by
the police committee and confirmed
without objection.
On the recommendation of the fire
department committee M. II. Bleseck
er's nomination as engineer of the
General Phinney Engine company and
George C. Bailey's nomination as stok
er of the same company were unanl
mouly confirmed. D. A. O'Connor was
confirmed as Inspector of the retaining
wall on Robinson street : William
Dougherty as Inspector of the lateral
sewer on Carouse avenue and William
HeUroth as inspector of the Hyde Park
avenue lateral sewer.
The upper branch refused to concur
In the action of common council In
oppressing the lunch wagons. The
resolution was on motion of Mr. Wil
liams indefinitely postponed. Mr.
Chittenden said that a great many
people favored the lunch wagon and
yet It was not just to allow them to go
untaxed to compete against eating
houses and hotels that pay heavy taxes
and high rents. He ordered that a tax
of $10 a wagon be Imposed. Mr. Wil
liams thought this would drive the
wagons out of the business and he would
not favor anything that would tcyid to
discourage them. His motion prevailed
by a large majority.
Another Important resolution which
was Indefinitely postponed was the one
Introduced In common council by Mr.
Flanaghan directing the city controller
to countersign warrants for labored pay
when the pay rolls have been approved
by the street commissioner and the
auditing committee, thus doing awny
with the present practice of compelling
these city employes to wait for their
money until both councils have ap
proved of the auditing committees re
port. Mr. Chittenden made the mo
tion that defeated the measure.
NEW STREET DAMAGE CASES.
The attempt, which emanated In com
mon council, to force the city to settle
the New street damage claims on a
basis of eighty-five per cent, also re
ceived a setback from Mr. Chittenden.
Messrs. McCann and Mauley wanted to
concur in the action of common council,
but despltu the lobbying of some of the
Interested property holders, the select
men would not lend themselves to the
scheme to railroad the measure through.
It wns referred to the judiciary com
mittee and the Intimation was given out
that If It returns It will be killed.
Mr. Chittenden secured permission to
present to the committee a letter he had
received that day from City Solicitor
Torrey In response to some Inquiries re
garding the case. This letter, from
which Mr. Chittenden quotd. states
that the hauls of settlement s too high
end that settlement should be made only
In cnaes where Judgments have been
secured and not In every case where
viewers have merely awarded damages.
The city, he snld, did $172 worth of
grading on New street and now it ia
confronted with over $2,800 damages.
Other damages have been awarded be
cause the city ran a sewer through the
rear cf some of the loto, which sewer
was built for the purpose of preventing
tliei'C properties from being Inundated
at evei'y fctorm. . Now other damage
suits are talked of bpcause the city en
gineer, at the Instigation of one of the
property holdeis, straightened the fines
lines, bringing aome of the properties In
or out a foot or two to conform with the
line.
Another resolution of common council
that dlil not meet with favor In th up
per branch was that directing the mayor
to enforce the ordinance concerning the
muzzling of dogs during the heated
term. Mr. Chittenden thought It only
made dogs more vicious to muzzle them
and Colonel Sanderson thought the reso
lution superfluous and between ' them
they succeeded in killing it.
The proposition to make a new as
sessment next year. In order to equal
ise the taxes did not meet with immedi
ate approbation. The advisability of
going to the expense of hiring assistant
assessors next year, in view of the fact
that they will have to be hired again the
following year, when the -triennial as
sessment Is due, was questioned by Mr.
Chittenden and Mr. Wagner and on his
motion the matter was referred to com
mittee for investigation.
The ordinance for paving Wyoming
avenue between Linden and Mul' erry
t-treet was passed on third reading.
Dr. B. H. Throop. who was given the
privilege of the floor stated that there
was but one properly holder. Mrs.
Susan Spencer who had refused to sign
the petition nnd that she orly objected
because Bhe believed the city was pay
ing too much for asphalt. The doctor
thought so too. and as a ground for his
belief he produced a telegram received
yesterday from the city clerk of Pitts
burg replying to his inquiry that the
city of Pittsburg paid only $1.80 for the
asphalt pavement laid there. Mrs.
Spencer, he said, would sign for the
pavement he thought before the time
for beginning the work arrived.
Mr. Chittenden called up the ordin
ance for paving Mulberry street from
Mifflin avenue to Nay Aug Park, but
Mr. Schroeder requested postponement
as he had some letters at home from
property holders asking to have their
names erased from the petition. His
request was granted. The ordinance
for paving West Lackawanna avenue
hill passed first and second reading.
THERE 13 TOO MUCH LIGHT.
A resolution Introduced by Mr. Man
ley directs that the chief engineer of the
fire department rearrange the electric
lights In the Crystal hose house so that
the expense of lighting may be reduced
nt least one-half. A resolution Intro
duced by Mr. McCann gives permission
to property holders on a portion of Sixth
street and Wrights court to pave those
thoroughfares with stone block pave
ment. A resolution was unanimously
adoptM inviting the letter curriers to
hold their next annual convention In
this city. Mr. Wagner Introduced an
ordinance for a lateral sewer in Kellum
court. ,
On the rccommwdatlon of the streets
and bildces committee Pox & P.uddy
were awarded the contract for paving
Ninth, Robinson and Jackson streets
at the following prices: Paving, $1.73;
setttng curb, 43 cents per lineal foot;
resetting old curb, 12 cenU per lineal
tot; st-lling curved curb 75 cents per
lineal fuot.
A comniunicitlott waa received from
the bor.rd of health advising that a pipe
drain be inld in the ravine near the
Fourth ward school house until such
time as the sewer district is completed
In that territory, and that a sewr dis
trict b; established in the territory of
the Second ward lying along the river.
tftreet Commissioner Kinidey, In a let
ter to councils, gave it as his opinion
that the sewer en North Main avenue
from Brown's allay to Lafayette street
has sagged In numerous alaccs and ad
visee that It be replaced. The commun
ication from the directors of the Ten
nassee centennial was transmitted by
Mayor Bailey and referred to theflnance
committee. Adjournment was made
until Saturday, August 1, which date
was selected as the regular meeting
night. Thursduy, the 6th, would Inter
