VIADUCT MEASURE
BEFORE COUNCILS
INTRODUCED LAST NIGHT BY
MR. CALPIN, OF THE SIXTH.
It Provldea for the Issuo of 3107,
320 in Bonds, Subject to tho Vote
of the Electors Special Committee
Appointed to Confer with tho Trol
ley Company and the Lackawanna
to Ascertain What They Will Do
Towards Constructing tho Viaduct.
Now License Tax.
An ordinance providing for the Is
suing of bonds to tho amount of $167,
326, subject to a vote of the electors,
for constructing' the West Lackawan
na avenue viaduct, was Introduced In
common council last night by Mr. Cal
pln, of the Sixth ward. It was re
ferred to committee, to bo printed If
favotnbly reported,
A tesolutlon, also Introduced by Mr.
Calpln, was approved, directing that
a special committee of three from each
branch of tho council be appointed to
act with the mayor In ascertaining
what tho Sctanton Railway corany
and the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western company are willing to do
towards erecting the viaduct. Chair
man Keller appointed Messrs. Calpln,
Grlfllths and Tewkesbury on this com
mittee. Mr. Wenzel, of tho Four
teenth ward, was the only member to
vote In the negative.
Mr. Wenzel Introduced a resolution
directing the street car company to
take Its tracks off the crossing and
extend them along Eighth street and
thence ncross the Swetland stteet
bridge and up Swetland street. It was
ruled out of order and later when Mr.
Wenzel changed the resolution to an
ordlnnnce to meet the objection which
led to Its being ruled out of order. It
was laid on the table on motion of
Mr. Grler by a ote of 10 to S.
ASHES IN THE RIVER.
When council adjourned It was to
meet next Thursday night, so that
the viaduct ordinance may be hast
ened through In time to have the bond
question voted on at the spring elec
tion. Mr. Phillips, chairman of the vice
and Immorality committee, Introduced
a resolution directing the mayor and
chief of police to raid all gambling'
places In the city. Mr. Grler raised
the point that the resolution was out
of order, because what It ordered done
was at all times the duty of the may
or and chief to do. Chairman Keller
ruled the point well taken.
Mayor Molr sent In a communica
tion disapproving the "bill of T. V.
Lewis for $4S for services as assistant
sanitary officer, on the ground that
the olllce was not created by councils.
The need of such nn officer was urgent,
the mayor said, and he would approve
the bill If councils would ratify Mr.
Lewis' appointment. The matter was
refetred to the Judiciary committee.
Other new measuies were introduced
and approved as follows:
M. V. Morris Inlting tho American
Federation of Labor to hold Its 1900 con
vention in this city.
