Another chapter In the flght between the land and lake asphalt leptesentn tlves In connection with the Mulberry stieet pavement contiact vvai enact ed at the city hall last night. The pnvetnonts committee of common coun cil sat and heard the wishes oC a huge delegation of ptoperty owneis and the aiguinent) of agents of the Umber As phalt Paving company and the Colum bia Constiuctlon company, of Syra cuse. The committee met In the pi Ivnte room attached to the city cleik's olllce. With them theie were piesent by Invi tation of Chalimaii Luther Keller two of the pavements committee of the select blanch of councils. The com mitteemen weie: Chairman Luther Keller, James P. Noone, I. P. Ooidon and 1J. P. Wenyel, of the common SCENE AT THE ASPHALT HE AKIN O. branch, and W. J. Thomas and J. A. Lansing, of the select bod The .session besan at S o'clock and lasted two and one-half houis. Chair man Keller advised that a icport be agteod upon, but Mr. Wenzel and Mr. Noone weie unwilling nnd nn adjourn ment was made at the lequest of the two latter to next Thuisday night at 7 o'clock, one hour piecedlng the legu lar time for beginning councllmanlc sessions. Whatever may be the natuie of the committee's decision and Its lepoit, the membeis have lecelved from the piopeity owners nothing but petitions, wiltten and veibal, for the land va riety nf asphalt, the kind involved in the Columbia company's bid. That there is, huwev or, some hesltancj- on the unit of eeitnin members of the committee and that the Haiber com pany's bid Is the only one that will be consideied along with the low proposal of the Columbia companj- was evi denced last night. OXLY TWO WI2KE ASKED. The lepresentntlves of those two concerns weie the only asphalt men asked to addiess the committee, al though one of the Dunn btothets and an anent of August Robinson, another bidder, weie in waiting. The four bids befoie the committee aie ns follows' Dunn Bios., $2.oS per equate yaid; Barber Asphalt Paving companj-, $2.CG; August Robinson, $2.43 and $2.10; the Columbia Construction company. $1 93. All bids except the latter bid of Mr. Robinson and that of the Columbia company weie for pitch, lake asphalt. Two of the most astute and expert men In the Baiber company's employ weie sent from New Yoik city to meet and address the committee Inst nlsrht. They are J. C. Rock, geneial agent of the company, and Clifford Rlchaidson, the superintendent of tests. Call Mc Kinney, of McKlnney & Reeves, the local Baiber agents, was piesent, but did not accompany Mr, Rock and Mr. Ricluudson into the committee loom. The two latter weie befoie the com mittee about three-quaiteis of an hour und occupied that time in piesenting aigumetus In favor of lake and against the land variety of pavement. Common Council Cleik Hatton in vited the property owners Into the room after the two Barber men hnd le tiied. P. J. Qulnlnn and his attoinej-, George S. Horn, entered with the dele gation, out of which J. "W. Guinej-, Geoige B. Thompson, B. Moses, Joseph Redlngton, P. W. Stokes, P. J. Hunan, AVllllam Delke nnd others nddiessed the committee and lequested that the contiact be aw aided to the lowest bidder. WANT LAND ASPHALT. The burden of the real estate owners' talk was that 75 per cent, of the piop erty owneis from Mifflin avenue to Piescott avenue hnd either signed pe titions or voiced themselves In favor of a land asphalt pavement. They weie satlslled as to the lesponslbllity of the Columbia company nnd the durability of its work. If there was any ques tion about the latter, the city would be piotected by the contiact bond. The citizens woie asked to letlre and Mr. Qulnlan nnd his counsel weie given n personal heating. Mr. Hoin fcpoke ill. st, but occupied only a few moments in discussing particularly the standing of the company and In lead ing the opinion of a Denver juilst to the effect that chemical analysis and testimony showed that ho dliterence between land and lake asphalt after refining was so -slight as to make no dlffeience In law. Mr. Qulnlan talked for nearly an hour, fully thirty minutes of the time being resumed In answeitng questions piopot!sled by the committeemen. He deliver? to the committee n bundle of letteia from Symcuse city officials and business men commendlnjr the pave ments of land asphalt laid In that city duilng the last live yeais by the Col umbia company or its predecessor, the Syracuse Improvement company. was not in it. When the meeting In the private room adjourned Mr. Dunn and Mr. Rock, the Baiber man, were wnltlng In anticipation that some conclusion would be leached. The former's opinion of the probable disposition of his bid was Indicated In his jocular suggestion that as he was "not In It" the committee tnlRht do well to teturn to him the certlllpd cheek that accompanied his bid, The committee was invited, but de clined, by the Harbor people and Mr, Qulnlnn to visit Now Yoik city and Sy incuse, lespecllvcly, for the purpose of Inspecting the pavements In those cities.

BURNS SAYS lie is otitic Opinion That the Hoard ol Itoilsion it lid Appeals Has No Power to Outer n New Assessment As Such Action Is Coutinry to the Coiistltiitloii--VMi.it 'iliut Instru ment Snvs. Tlnne seems to be some doubt that the new city nssessment, Just complet ed, will stnnd the test of law. It Is contended that mnkliiB of an assess ment as this has been made out of the legular time preset Ibcd by the leglsla tuie and by a body consumed ns Is the boaid of appeal and levislon is con trary In seveinl paitleulnis to the con stitution of the coinmonwenltii and that If any one Is deslious of making a test of the matter this contention will be unquestionably verified. This opinion is held by many who give eonsldeiatlon to such matters, and Is n lltm conviction with Attorney .Jia II. Bums, ex-city solicitor. AVhen asked for nn evpiesslon on the matter jestciday, he .said: "The piesent assessment may be more equitable than some that have preced ed it, but It Is open to some seilous legal nffectlons. One of these Is the exeiclse of legislative functions by the bom (I of appeal and levislon. Under the law theie Is a tilennlal assessment of leal estate, tills to remain unchanged for'thiee j'enis, except wlieie Improve ments have been made or piopeity de stioyed by flic. THE ACT OP 1S93. "A piovislon in the act of 1893 amend ing our citj- chatter provides that, said board (of appeal and levislon), a majoilty of whom shall constitute a quoium, may in nny year other than a tilennlal year, If the" shall deem a new assessment necessnij-, on or be foie the first day of September, Issue their piecept to the cltj- assessois re quiting them to make out and leturn a full, just and equal assessment of property within the city or such parts theieof as the said boaid of levislon may deem udvlsnble.' "This Is the authority under which the piesent assessment Is. being made and It seems to be a clear exeiclse of legislative authotlty, the power of ex eiclse of which cannot be delegnted even to a boaid of levislon and ap peals. "It Is also subject to the objection that even If exercised by the legisla ture It would be special legislation. The constitution piovides thnt all taxes shall be levied and collected under uni form laws. This is a law for third class cities, but under Its piovlslons one city might have a new assessment every year, another everj- two jeais and otheis once In thiee jeais. Not only this, but theie might be a new assessment in n part of a city and not in the other parts. This would clearly be special legislation. WHAT CONSTITUTION PROVIDES. "The constitution also provides that 'the geneial assembly shall not dele gate to any special commission any power to levj- taxes or poifoim nnj municipal function whatever.' This act attempts to delegate to the board of appeal and levislon the most vital part of the tax-levying power, the changing of the tilennlal assessment In the whole or In part of the city without even the assent or contiol of the city councils, the only legislative body piovlded by law lor the city." It will be lemembeied that last year the question of the nuthoilty of the boaul of appeal and revision was taken to court In the matter of the assess ment of the Jermyn hotel and the de cision was against the board. The as sessment just completed Inci eases the value of the piopeity In the city $2,500, 000. INSURANCE A10NEY LACKING. Redistribution of Policies on Property Was Necessnrv.

Last year the tame amount, ?1.000, was nppiopilated for insiuanco premiums. In older to place $10,000 on the Nny Aug building, various small reductions were made heie and there on policies coveting the city hall, police stations and tlte company quarters. THAT GLEE CLUB.

In next week's license court the Judges will be called to pass upon the largest number of license application ever filed In this county 709. This Is 144 moie than weio granted Inst year and 51 more than were applied for. A reinaikablo featuio of the applica tions is that It Is not always the largest municipality that asks the greater number of licenses. Old Forge, for In stance, clenniH It needs 51 dilnkeiles to satiate the thlist of Its 717 voteis, wlille Caibondale with 1,000 voteis thinks 37 places will be able to cater to Its wants in that direction.

In connection with tho remonstinnccs filed enily In the week by the ofllclnl boaid of the Penn Avenue Baptist chuich against the granting of licenses for four liquor establishments near the chuich, exceptions were tiled yes teiday with the cleik of the courts ngnlnst one of the license petitions, that of Fmnk Amsbry. The exceptions were tiled by J. W. Browning, nttoiney for the tiustees. The latter object to the license on ac count of the pioxlmltj- ot Amsbry's saloon to the church building and tho manner In which the business Is con ducted. Tho exceptions allege that the saloon Is a menace and dangerous to the nioials of persons attending church set vices, particuluily tho young, and that Its business is conducted contraiy to law.
