THERE WAS NOTHING DUE.
That Was Alderman Millar's Decis
ion In n Case Yesteiday.
What Alderman Millar considers to
1k the most pathetic case that has
been hi ought to his attention during
his tcim of ofllce Is that of Cluules
Lewis.
Christmas night a p.tity of joung
men engaged In a scuflle on Spiuce
ftreet, near Penn avenue, which cul
minated In oung Lewis In caking a
window glass In a saloon. Another
young man, named James J. Collins,
was anested and held under $".00 bail
on tho chaige of bteaklng the window.
Lewis saw tho announcement In tho
newspapers of Collins' airest nnd the
nevt day went to Aldeiman Millar and
told him that ho had broken the win
dow und that he would like to pay for
it. The piopriotor llxod the cost at $15,
and Lewis said ho would come In after
pay-day nnd pay It.
January 2 he appeared in the alder
man's oillco and handed over 10, and
it was agreed that he should complete
the payment next month.
Yesterday an elderly man handed tho
aldeiman a lecelpt for $10 nnd said
that ho had found It In the olothinjr of
his son, and asked If theie wus anv
more money due.
Young Lewis was taken suddenly 111
and died after two das' sickness of
pneumonia. The alderman decided that
there was nothing more to bo paid on
tho bill.

When asked yesteidaj b whom tU
apportionment in luted above was
made, Mayor Molr said:
"The councllmanlc appoilloiimcnl
(ommlttee made that appoitloninnt
nnd 1 decided that theie was no time
to lose and I accordingly issued this
notice. I want it understood that Im
not atemptlng to usurp any power.
I'm simply doing what I consider to u
my duty as major of this Uty.
"The law governing cities of the sec
ond class piovidcs that tho number of
couuclhnen shall be nppottloned -cording
to population und I'm sltnoly
doing all I can to havo these councll
menelectcdat this coming election. Tie
people of this city aie entitled tuu'er
the law to an enlarged eoumil and
they must have it Nothing can pt -vent
it."
WHAT VAUGHAN SAID.
Councilman D. W. Vnughau win
was appointed n. member of the ap
portionment committee on ThuisJiv
night said yesterday: "I want it tin
detstood that I wasn't present at any
meeting of the appoi tloniucnt commit
tee, nor was I notified that any meet
ing of this committee was to be held.
"Tho whole proceeding is to my mind
entirely contrary to law and the Deiu
ociats may be expected to fight the
matter out In the coutts. In the Hist
plnco tho common council committee
was appointed when the city was still
in the third class and when one h id
no right to operate under a second
class city law. The select council j.ii t
of the committee was nppolnted piop
oily after the govemoi's proclamation
was tccelvod.
"The law provides that when the tu
sessois ptopaie the list of taxables
they must certify to It under oatli to
the president of tho common council
nnd that on the next meeting there
after the committee shall be appointed.
The list of taxables was never cut tilled
to the pi evident of the common coun
cil because lie's In Washington and the
committee was appointed before the
list was ever prepared.
"Why I am sine that we can suc
cessfully prevent tho election on th.t.e
giounds alone without taking into con
sideration at nil the fuet that the law
says the apportionment must bo made
in July nnd that they're Just four
months ahead of tlnuv There are
eleven Democrats in the common coun
cil and If they can't pi event tho ok -tlun
they can pi event the new inem
beis fiom taking thoii seats."
As was expected, there was no meet
ing of the common council last night,
theie being only eight Republican
members piesent when rieik Ljnott

beis and Smith and Harvey, both Re
publicans, wero absent. Tho members
present adjoin tied without setting any
particular time for the next meeting.
Messrs. Keller nnd Alworth said
after the 'meeting that they didn't
think there was much legal ground on
which the mayor could bae his con
tention that under existing conditions
tho additional councllnten could be
elected at the February election.
"I think we should take politics out
ot thin question and do this thing
risht," tuld Mr. Keller. "It may be
that this apportionment has been mado
accotdlng to law, but 1 am strongly of
tho opinion that It has not been. If It
hns been, then the election of these
additional touneilmen may be perfectly
legal, but I think that before the elec
tion Is held we should havo a legal
opinion as to whether It is or not."
Mr. Alwoith whs ot the same opin
ion, and suggested that It would be
wise for councils themfolves to take
up the matter and obtain legal ndv lee
as to whether the apportionment has
been legally made or not.
It Is nioio than probable that next
Thursday night thcte will bo n special
meeting of the select council In addi
tion to tho tegular meeting of com
mon council, und that h Joint resolu
tion will be adopted' directing the city
solicitor to furnish a written opinion on
the question.
A MENACE TO HEALTH.
That's What Dr. Reedy Says the
Meter System Is.
In the course of tin exceedingly In
teiestlng paper on "Water" lead by
Dr. Walter B. Iteedy last ldght befoie
a lnign number of tho members of the
Catholic Young Women's club, he
stated that the plun of r hat glng for
w nter by meter lates was npt to be a
menace to the nubile health.
"It seems unfortunate," ald he,
"that that which falls tionr heaven
so evenly should be served In lestrlet
ed amounts by tho corporations. The
method of dunging for water by me
ter unquestionably interferes with
cleanliness and the protection of health
as It now operates
"Hotels ate obliged limit the
amount of watei used and, as ti con
sequence, mnt pernicious practices
have resulted Glasses are cleaned
again and again In the same water,
which Is held In tanks. The numbT
of disease germs which may thus tlnd
arces to the human body may be dan
geiou. Fiom an aesthetic point of
view, as well as from a hvglenlc
standpoint, theie Is nothing seductive
In the thought of using a gla,ss which
may have touched the lips ot" a pei -son
allllited with a loathsome disease."
I)i. Beedv also nld that there was
teason to believe that tho using ot
Lol.v Scianton as a place for skating
Is not entirely fieo from dangar. He
said that titbei miosis germs could eas
ily bo deposited on the Ice by persons
expectorating upon It and that there
was a possibility of tuberculosis being
ptopogatod In that manner.
He said that II was n mistaken idea
to believe that disease germs would
be lio7.eii to death nnd urged each and
every person piesent to do a little pri
vate missionary woik to see that the
lakes from which Scinuton's Ice supply
Is secured are kept fiee from pollution.
During tin evening theie was also a
musical programme tendered by llrs.
Thomas C. Walsh, MNs Anna Sullivan
and Sidney Hughes. Next Friday
night Di. Anna Law-Aard will lead

NO MEETING
AS YET HELD
COMMITTEE FAILS TO HAVE
CONFERENCE.
The Gelioial Mnniger Had Gone
Awny When the Committee Ai
rlved Some Time After the Ap
pointed Hour Bain Men's Tiou
bles Have Been Adjusted nnd the
Main Difficulties Remnlnlng to Bo
Settled Is the Matter of Employ
ing Non-Union Men.
No conference was hud jentcnlay
between Genera t Manager Sllllinan
und the employes' committee, as was
ficheluled. It was arranged during
the morning that they should meet
nt ? o'clock, but the committee ex
Porlen ed an unexpected delay nnd did
not leach the cotnpnu's oillco until
rome time after the nppolnted hou
and Mi. Sllllman, having another ap
pointment, could not wait. No tlnte
for a future conference had been set
up to n late hour lost night.
The main purpose of the confeience
is to secure Mr, Sllllnmn's -lRnatttro
to an tigt cement that the tetins of the
strike settlement shall e'ontlnuo for a
year.
In this niri cement, In addition to
what hrn aheady been agreed upon,
the emptoyes have Included a rltusj
to the ef.'ect that no man nhall be
employed by tho company who Is not
a member or the local union of the
Amalgamated .Association of Sticet
Haltwav Bmploycs. This clau"e, It I?
expected, will not b' rcndllv ac
quiesced In by Mr. Sllllman, ns It will
mean nt tho very outset the dchargj
of Keller and Seeley, the men w ho
refused to Join the stilkcrs and whose
employment by the company is so ob
jectionable to the union men. because
It Is thought to b ns good as ceitaln
that tiro union would not admit these
men to membership, oven though thev
should mnke application, which Is not
at ull likely
To what extremes lite union men
will go to liHst upon the adoption of
this clause Ls a much mooted question.
If Mi. Sllliiinir refuses to consent to
having It made a. part of the agree
ment, the action that the men will
take will be decided upon nt theli
next meeting.
A meeting Is 1 ailed foi tomonow
inclining to lecelve the tepoit of tho

Mr. Sllllman, It may bo that the meet

The bam men have afiietd to the
teims offoied by tho cotnpanv, which
at first they were disposed to reject,
and the company has .11 tanged, and
yesterday began to put into opei atlon,
the ten-hour prhedule. The only mat
