VIADUCT CASE
BEING HEARD
TAKING OF TESTIMONY BEOUN
YESTERDAY.
Tho Main Question nt Issue Is
Whether or Not tho Proposed Ex
penditure for Consequential Dam"
ngos la a Debt That Can. Be Con
tracted Without tho Consent of the
People The Plaintiff Is Testing
Matter with View of Securing
Himself and Others,
ArgumontH on tho bill of equity
brought by Luther Keller to test the
validity of the ordinance providing for
the "West Lackawanna avenue viaduct
were herd .yesterday hofore Judge
John P. Kelly, In court room No. 2,
I. II. Burna and II. M. Streeter ap
peared for Mr. Keller. City Solicitor
A. A. Vosburg, Major Everett Warren
and J. S. Clarke, of Philadelphia, a'p
peared in defense of the ordinance.
Col. F. L. Hitchcock nnd Charles E.
Daniels appeared respectively for the
Scranton nnd West rildo boards of
trade.
The ordinance It attacked mainly on
the ground that tho contemplated ex
penditure Is Illegal In that it will in
crease 'the city's debt beyond tho two
per cent, limit, .which, under tho law,
can only be done by a vote of the
people.
The defense Is that the proposed ex
penditure Is not such a debt as tho law
contemplates In Its limitation, and
further that If it should be held to
bo a debt subject to said limitation,
It would be waved from exceeding tho
limit by reason of the fact than the
subtraction of $230,000 debt, which was
authorized by a vote of the people
for the construction of the Roaring
llrook nnd Linden street bridges,
would leave a margin sufficient to in
clude the proposed expenditure.
Tho attacking party holds that this
subtraction cannot be made: that a
debt created by vote of the people
is to be regarded in the same light
as one created by councils, when this
mntter of limitation Is eonridered.
The city does not make any nctual
0-penditure, the defense contends.
The Delaware.Lackawanna and West
ern Railroad company and the Scran
ton Hallway company pay the entire
cost of the viaduct. Tho city only as
sumes tho resultant damages, and un
liquidated damages nro not held by
the law to be debl.
Mr. Clarke was heard specially on
this latter contention. Ho went ex
clusively Into the definition of debt
nsd indebtedness, the words used in
Sec. S, Art. 9, of the constitution in
which the limitation In question is
presented. Among other proofs ad
vanced In support of bis argument
were excerpts from the standard au
thorities to the effect that "debt must
be for a definite amount due by cer
tain and oxprctw agreement," and
that "debt Is properly opposed to un
liquidated damages."
Assistant City Clerk Evan Morris
and City Engineer Joseph P. Phillips
were on the stand in the morning, pre
senting tho ordinance and the blue
print attached, and in the uftersoon
Mr. Phillips was examined at length
by Mr. Hums and cross-examined by
Major Warren, on the viaduct plans
nnd tho damaging effect the viaduct
will have on abutting propertj.
Mr. Keller was on thu stand in the
morning, explaining how the erection
of the viaduct would damage his prop
erty. In the course uf his examina
tion he made the .statement (that If
the city would give him security for
the expected damages the .suit would
be witluliawn.
The hearing will b continued to
day. Swavtz Makes Accusations.

DIVIDING CITY
INTO DISTRICTS
Measure That Has Been Introduced
in Councils by Select Council
man demons Its Purpose.
"An ordinance providing for the di
vision of the city into districts for
tho appropriating of funds for street
repairs and Imposing extra duties upon
the street commissioner."
How familiar these words are to the
members of the city councils. They
form the title to an ordinance which
Is introduced nearly every year with
perlslstent regularity and which Is an
nually killed or allowed to die a peace
ful death.
Select Councllmnn Clemons Intro
duced the measure on Thursday night.
It differs very slightly from the one
Introduced last year by Councilman
Chittenden. It provides for the crea
tion of our districts, as follows:
First district Seventh, Ninth, Tenth,
Thirteenth, Sixteenth nnd Seventeenth
wards.
Second district Fourth, Fifth, Sixth,
Fourteenth, Fifteenth and Eighteenth
wards.
Third district First, Second, Third
and Twonty-ilrst wards.
Fourth district Eighth, Eleventh,
Twelfth, Nineteenth and Twentieth
wards.
The ordinance provides thnt all
money for street repairs shall be ap
propriated, not by wards, as at pres
ent, but by districts, and shall be ex
pended under the direction of tho
street commissioner. Tho purpose of
the ordinance is, of course, to do
away with the evils of tho present
system of permitting the councilmen
to expend the appropriations for
street repairs.
Under the second class city law
the sj'stem of ward appropriations is
done away with and the money for
the Improvement of the public high
ways is expended under the supervis
ion of the chief of the bureau ot
strots and highways, an official cor
responding to the street commissioner
of a third class city.
TO ENFORCE VACCINATION.
Certificates Must Be Filled Out Be
fore Jan. 15.
The seeietary of the board of health
Is having prepared several thousand
blank vncclnation oertlllcates, which
will be sent to the principals of the

by them to each and every school
child.
These certllleates must be .signed
by a competent physician, und must
be returned to the school before Janu
ary 15th. The physician must certify
that the child to whom he gives the
certificate has either been vaccinated
or has- suffered from iinallpox.
Any child not picscntliu; such a cer-tlfie-ute
befoie January 13 will be de

MME. HERRMAN'S ADMIRER.
The Mistress of Magic Has a Strange
Experience in n Western City.
Stories almost without number have
been printed regarding tho experience
of actresses with Individuals of uneven
intellect who becomo smitten with the
charms of tho fair ones that nro usual
ly heightened by tho rays of tho cal
cium light, nnd often prove to bo an
noying with persistent unsought at
tentions, Madame Adetalde Herrman,
widow of tho late mnglclnn, who is
now playing In tho nurko-Chaso
vaudeville company, seems to have
been the last to arouse admiration be
yond that which nn excellent exhibi
tion of tnlcnt would command. While
filling nn engagement In Intllannpolls
last week, members of tho company
noticed n man sitting upon the front
row who seemed to havo eyes for
nothing except the net of Madame
Hernnnn, a very beautiful woman,
who gives a charming number in her
"Night In Jnpnn." At each perform
ance tho man, who had the appear
ance of nn unsentimental tradesman,
could be found in his placo during tho
entire week. Mme. Herrman was not
Informed of the nttontlons which tho
other members of the troupe feared
might bo those of n crank, as the
knowledge would, It was thought do
tract her attention from the work of
illusion, which requires tho utmost
skill and thoughtfulncss.
On tho final performunco, however,
the strange man who hnd seemed
hitherto content to drink In the beauty
of tho fair performer with burning
glances, evidently plucked up courage,
nnd during the applause that followed
tho crowning feature of Mme. Horr
man's act suddenly tossed an envel
ope upon the stage at her feet. AVlth
out waiting to sec where It fell he
arose and hurried out of the theater.
The Madame bowed acknowledgment
nnd upon arriving nt her dressing
room opened the package. It contain
ed a handsome brooch nnd a sheet of
paper upon which was written in a
bold hand:
O lady fair, thy beautj- lare
And deftness so mjstcrious
That supple grace and beaiuTug face
Half joking half Imperious
Doth make one Feutlinciit.il.
Could I but pre.s with fond caress
A kiss of lasting sweetness
Upon the lips wlicic nectar chips,
I'd woo with modest neatness,
Or passion Oriental.
After throwing tho package upon
the stage tho man disappeared, find
has not been seen since. And efforts
to determine his Identity havo thus
far been fruitless. Madame Herrman
states that she feels gtarlfied that the
admiration lu her case has taken the
mild form of poetrj-, and that the
smitten individual has not, as Is usual
ly the rule, thought it tho proper
thing to pursue her with threats of
murder and suicide.
