DEMOCRATS CAUSE
ANOTHER DELAY
Their Action Last Night with Regard to
the Appropriation Ordinance.
WAS REFERRED TO A COMMITTEE
Tho Report Wns a rnvornblo Ono nnd
tho Orditinnco l'nsscd on I'irst
ltcndlng--Conltict Over the Cnllhig
of ti Special WcclinK"Clitilrinnii
Sniulcrson JIns Appointed Ills
Committees - Henry T. Kochlor
Nnmcd us Inspector.
The Democrats of select council fur
ther delayed the passage of the long
overdue appropriation ordinance last
night by refusing to consent to a regu
lar order of procedure. Mr. Chitten
den, who was lending the Republican
members In tho debate, finally moved
to adjourn nnd the motion prevailed
after the ordinance had been passed
one reading.
Only a temporary delay Is occasioned
by the Democrnts, however, us before
the next meeting night, Thursday of
next week, the Republicans can con
sider and have ready for Immediate
action at that meeting the matters they
wished to bring nbatit last night.
The ordinance came up In Its regulnr
order when were read the measures
from the common branch. Following
the adoption of Mr. Manley's motion
to refer to a special committee to re
port forthwith, President Sanderson ap
pointed as a committee Messrs. Chit
tenden, Ross, Thomas, Robinson and
Manley.
Mr. Manley refused to retire with tho
committee nfter learning that Mr. Chit
tenden proposed offering some amend
ments not to be voted upon until after
the ordinance had passed one reading
and at a special meeting.
The committee was absent but a mo
ment and returned with a favorable
report. It was unanimously passed
ono reading on motion of Mr. Chitten
den. MR. CHITTENDEN'S MOTION.
Mr. Chittenden then offered a motion
that the ordinance be referred to the
committee, the committee to consider
the proposed amendments and notify
President Sanderson when they were
ready to report, so that he mlgni Im
mediately call a special meeting.
Mr. Manley and Mr. McCann debated
to have a definite time set for the spe
cial meeting, nnd Mr. Roche remnrked
that ho had no doubt there was "an
other scheme afoot to make a deal for
police appointments."
Mr. Chittenden explained thnt the
committee would meet nt once and lose
no tlmo In reporting. There would be
a delay of but one night. There had
been discovered some Important llnws
and omissions which would have to be
attended to nnd there were several
Items that must be provided with nn
propilatlons. If the old ordinance was
exactly what was needed, then he
would not ask for time to consider the
amendments.
Mr. Chittenden's motion to refer to
committee was then lost by a tie vote.
Mr. Schroeder unwittingly voting "no"
and thus having his name recorded
with tho Democrats. The vote was as
follows;
Ayes Ross, Finn, Thomas, Williams,
Durr, Chittenden, Robinson, Fellows,
Lansing, Sanderson 10.
Nays Kearney, Clarke, Roche, Man
ley, McCann, Schroeder, Burns, Frable,
Coyne, McAuurew 10.
As soon as the result was announced
Mr. Chittenden made a motion to ad
journ. The motion prevailed by a vote
of 11 to 9, Mr. Schroeder this time be
ing recorded In the bosom of his own
political family.
COMMITTEE'S ACTION.
The committee will Informally con
sider the amendments Just ns though
the ordinance had been referred In ac
cordance, with Mr. Chittenden's mo
tion. Then at next week's meeting
the Republican majority will refer the
ordinance for Immediate leport and It
will be passed second reading amended.
An adjournment will then be made to
the following night to pass the meas
ure on miru reading. Possibly a spe
cial meeting will be called for.Saturday
night or early next week, In which case
the same procedure will bo followed.

and that txvo Inspectors should bo ap
pointed on tho xvork. This matter, aa
xvell as tho nomination of Mr. Koehler,

Mayor Bailey's flelestlon of Mr. Koeh

sive evidence that tha ex-rcglster-of-xvllls
xvlll not be appointed street commissioner.
Tlvo nomination of William Dougher

PENN AVENUE CHURCH PARSONAGE.
Agreement with Reference, to It Is
Now in Dispute.
Attorneys A. A. Vosburg, A. V. Bow
er and C. E. Olver, sitting ns arbitra
tors, yesterday In court room No. 2 be
gan the taking of testimony In the suit
brought by Nathaniel Halstead to make
opeiatlve tho revlslonary clause In the
deed by which he conveyed, to the
Penn Avenue Baptist chuich the Mifflin
avenue parsonage. The deed provides
that the church shall own the Drooer
ty ns long as It Is used for parsonage
purposes, but If It should be used for
any other purpose Its ownership should
revert to the grantor.
Last summer the trustees of the
church while negotiating for tho ser
vices of a new pastor, were lmiiresd
with the belief that a more desirable
residence would have a tendency, to
fcay the least, of making the Penn Ave
nue charge more Inviting, and with this
In mind consulted Mr. Halstead with a
view of having him waive the rever
sionary clause, which concession lu
readily agreed to, it Is alleged. A new
parsonage was secured on Jefferson
avenue and Rev. Dr. Dixon soon after
accepted the call to tho church -.nd
was Installed In the new parsonage.
The Interview' with Mr. Halstead was
had In June, and in September the
church trustees again called upon him
to have him put the agreement In writ
ing. This he declined to do, and a
short time later Instituted the suit to
recover possession.
The property In question has been
untenanted since the departure of Rev.
Warren G. Partridge. This arms tho
defense with the secondary contention
that no "other uses" have as yet boen
made of the old parsonage.
Mr. Halstead whs, and still Is, a dea
con of tho church. The suit Is virtual
ly an amicable action, the end In view
being an otllclal decision of th,e dispute
concerning tho parole agreement. Tho
plaintiff Is represented by W. J. Hand
and Frank T. Okell. S. B. Price and J.
XV. Bi owning appear for the trustees
of the church.

Some mills mny grind slowly, but the

Three divorces were granted yester

In one of them, the Spencer case, the
subpoena wus Issued December 4, 1896;

of tho case, was not granted until Jan
uary 10, of this year.
The three divorces wore In the cases
of Emma Spencer against A. D. Spen
cer, Lizzie Jones Reese ngalnst George
Reese, and John D, Jones against Mary
Gwynne Jones.
The Spencer divorce was granted by
Judge Gunster. S. B. Price was attor
ney for tho llbcllnut; no opposition was
offered on tho part of the respondent.
Mrs. Spencer's nlegation was that her
husband heaped such Indignities upon
her that It mado her life unbearable.
Among other charges prefened was
that he locked her out of the house.
They were married In Trenton, N. J.,
February 21, 1861, and lived together
until April 9, 1897.
Court In addition to granting the di
vorce directed that Mr. Spencer pay
the costs.
The divorcement of Lizzie Jones
Reese from George W. Reese wns made
by Judge Archbald. XV. S. Hulslander

The simple charge of desertion was
all that wns proved.

lived together In Providence until Oc
tober 18, 1S94, a year and eight months.
Mrs. Reese avers that there was no
cause in the world for his leaving her,
that she knows of.
