THE REMOVAL OF SAUL AND DYER SELECT COUNCIL FORMALLY NO TIFIED BY MAYOR. Communications Referred to Com mittee with Instructions to Con sult with' the City Solicitor with Reference to tho Powers of Select Council In Connection with the Re movol of Officers An Electric Light Ordinance Vetoed by the Mayor More Matters Considered. Communications from Mayor James Moir were read at last night's meet lnc of the select council removing Patrolmen James Saul and Stephen Dyer for cause. They wore referred to committee on motion of Mr. Chitten den with Instructions to consult with the city solicitor and ascertain thu powers of the select council with ref erence to the removal of police olllcers. Tho removals are dated ns of Aug. 18. Conimunlcntions were also received from the mayor appointing Wells S. Hockenberry nnd David J. Davis to fill tho vacaneles caused by the removal of Snul and Dyer. These appointments also went to committee. The fire department committee re ported favorably on the ordinance pro viding for the payment of the claims of Kvans Brothers nnd the North End Lumber company for extra work on tho Cumberland hose house. This or dinance wns referred to tho committee on June lf. After the Cumberland hose house was completed there wns much opposition to the payment of this bill of extras. The following opinion from the city solicitor with reference to the licensing of transient retail merchants was read and filed: SOLICITOR'S OPINION. Scranton, Pa., Aug. 17, U93. To tho Honorable, tho Members of the Select and Common Councils of tho City of Scranton. Gentlemen: With respect to file of sc. lect council No. 2S, lsy.i, being an ordi nance to provide for the licensing of transient retail merchants In the city of Scranton, 1 would say: That this ordi nance seems to bo framed In accordance with the net of assembly approved tho second day of May, 18W, and If this net of nssembly Is held to bo valid, tho ordi nance In my opinion will stand. The net of 18W, to which I have Just referred, has not yet received judicial Interpretation, nor lias Its constitutional lt and vitality been passed upon by any court so far as I can learn. Of course tho act of 1S3S, which was repealed by tho act of ISM was held to bo Invalid by Judge Guuster In the case of the com monwealth against Morris Wormser, and as the two acts referred to ur some, what slmllnr In form, this decision may form somu guide as to what the ruling will be upon the act of 1SSD when It is called Into question. The regulation of business Is one of tho police powers of u municipality; and the question raised with respect to ordi nances of this character usually is, whether they are directed against the business as such, or whether their effect will be to discriminate against persons In tho exercise of a cirtnln business. It U generally held that municipalities have a right to regulate business but not to dis criminate between the persons who aro engaged In tho same trade or pursuit; and whether or not the act of 1S99 Is held to be constitutional, will depend upon whether It falls within the former or lat ter class of legislation to which I have just refered. I'ntll there has been a ju dicial decision ns to tho validity of the act of IW, I can only repeat that tho pro. posed ordinance is framed In accordance with that act, and will stand or fall with It. Very truly yours, A. A. Vosbtirg, City Solicitor. ORDINANCE VETOED. Mnyor Moir returned without his ap proval thu ordinance providing for an electric light at Luzerne and Eighth streets in the Fifteenth ward. The mayor said there is no money to pay for the light and, anvway, a light is not needed at that point. It requires a two-thirds vote to pass an ordinance over theveto of the mayor and as the proposition to pass the ordinance not withstanding the opposition of the mayor only received thirteen votes the veto was sustained. Mrs. Mary Durkln, who owns a prop erty at -129 Phelps street, nsked the city to award her proper compensation for injury done to her property by surface water.

The resolution went through with a rush. NOT THE COMPANY'S FAULT. Mr. Swisher Explains Whr.t They Did for Excursionists. Tho treatment of delegates to the letter carriers' convention received nt Mountain park Wednesday was one of the principal topics discussed about town yesterday. J. S. Swisher, division passenger agent of tho Central Huilroad of New Jersey, said yesterday that his com pany had done everything that could be expected of It. More cars were furnished than the Wllkes-Uarrc car tiers ordered nnd the trip to the park was made in one hour and thirty min utes, which he considers good time when tho heavy train of fourteen cars Is taken Into consideration. The coaches were the ones in regular use. The first section of tho excursion train, he explained, left the park at 0.20 and arrived in Scrnnton at 8.10. The second one left the purk at 7.20 nnd had the excursionists here at 0.10. The trains ran slowly from Mountain Park to Ashley to give the conductors time to collect the tickets before the first stop. Seven miles of the run Is over a grade of 107 feet to the mile. These things considered, the time made, he thinks, was very creditable. FREE CONCERT. Scranton Business College.

Mr. Millard Informed the report er of the North Jersey Enterprise that he expected another passenger car to anivo today. Tho superintendent of the New York and New Orange rail road added that persons might think for the first few days that things were a trllle new and a little ciudo but that experiences of this kind were not now to him. He has assisted in the opening of depots on railroads which he has constructed In the west where nothing but corn fields or wheat stubble could be seen for miles. Yet at those very points can now be found towns with thousands of Inhabitants, towns large enough to have national banks, electric railroads, water works towns which havo surprised the natives because of the rapidity of their irruwtlt. Superintendent Millard Is consratu IatliiK hlinsoir upon the excellence of the passenger ciew which he l.ns ob tained for the New Yorkjind Now Or ange railroad. The conductor.

It Is Contended That Mulberry Street nnd Arthur Avenue Aro Public Streets and Were Accepted by tho City and That the Scranton Railway Company Is Now a Tres passer Having Gone on the Streets and Laid Its' Tracks Without Any Authority. City Solicitor A. A. Vosburg filed with Prothoriotnry John Copelnnd yes terday the answer of the cltv to the petition for nn Injunction filed by the Scranton Hallway company against tho City of Scrnnton, and Jnmes Moir. mayor. The Injunction was obtained to prevent the city from Interfering with the work of completing the loop of the trolley rond to Nay Aug park. In the nnswer It Is denied that tho company has n right to construct nnd operate a street railway upon Mulberry street and Arthur avenue. It the com pany ever had an agreement with the Lackawanna Iron nnd Coal company permitting them to use these Rtrects it was not recorded ns required by law. It Is set forth that the city by her conduct, dealings and acts accepted Mulberry street from Prescott avenue to Arthur avenue and Arthur avenue from Mulberry to Olive street as pub lic streets and from the time of their dedication have been located as public streets on the assessment map of the city. It Is admitted that permission was granted the company to lay Its tracks on these streets, but the terms of the ordinance show that the right thus given wns lost by the failure of the plaintiff 0 construct the road with in two years from tho date of the ap proval of the ordinnnce. In concluding, the nnswer says "the Scrnnton Hallway company has no au thority whatever from the city of Scranton to construct tracks upon Mul berry street and Arthur avenue nnd both of these streets nre public thor oughfares of tho city of Scranton located within the limits of said city nnd that the Scranton ltnllway com pany Is trespassing upon said streets without any authority of the law what ever." The injunction will come up for final hearing before Judge F. W. Guuster on Monday. Fellows Wants the Land. An action In ejectment was begun yesterday by Joseph Fellows and Wln fleld II. Fellows against Cornelius Smith and John Stanley Smith. Tlf plaintiffs say they are owners of an unvlded one-quarter Interest In sixty one acres of land in the Twenty-firsi ward of this city. They are repre sented by Attorneys E. C. Newcomb and Welles & Torrey. It is alleged that tho defendants were to pay $2,000 In cash for the one fourth Interest, but that this has never been done nnd they therefore ask to be reinstated In the possession ot the land. On tho part of the defendants It Is nllegcd that for the land in dis pute they were to render certain ser vice as attorneys and this service thev have given, they allege. The Langstaff Contest.
