Whole Contest Over the Changes.
The oidlliuiice plovldlng for llle i Ins.
ing of C'llrf sit eel was iipiirtnd favor
ally upon by the stieels and bildges
connnltteo of lommoii council la.
night mid was passed on (list and see.
olid leadings by that body after until
ments for and against Its passage had
been piesetlted by Attorney S. II, Price,
lepiesentlng the HasUim Intciests, and
H. .ehnder mid Attoiney W. J.
Hand, leiucsentlug the Ulcksou Mautl
f.ictuilng company.
Mr. Price spoke llrst, and said that
If no Individual prop'ity lights on
the stieet weie to be Interfiled with
without the consent of the owners of
such ptoperty the ordinance should
pass. Such was not the case, however.
The lights or nil estate owning 160 feet
front wete seilouly Inlet foied with
by the ordinance, he said.
Ills clients, if the street Is closed,
would bo obliged to reach Liu lcnwmi
iia avenue by n stieet having a veiy
heavy guide. The hit Tests which he
lepiesented, of course, might not be
as Important as the Interest nf the
Dickson Miinufuctuilng company, but
if Justice was to be done they should
bo consulted, h sold.
Wheie private Interests clash, be
said, mid wheie It wns necessary for
a contract to be enteicd Into between
such Interests, council should not force
uch a enntiaot If it was not agreeable
to both parties. The Individuals should
be left to agiee between themselves as
to Its tonus.
Mil. ZI.IIXDnit'S UI.MAIIKK.
President P. II. Zoliiid"f, of tho Dick
son Mnmitactttiing company, was next
lie.ud. He stated that between fiOO
TOO of the employes of the company's
locomotive woiks were obliged to onus
the tracks of the Lackawanna -nciy
day nt the Clllf stieet crossing and
that largely for this reason it was do
sired to close the c'ioslng.
It was proposed to make llildge
stieet a thoioiighly passable tlioiougli
faie, easy ot ncces-s at n very slight
giade to OI1T stieet. Lvery piopeity
owner on the street with the single
exception of the Ilnslam estate had
signed a telease fiom all damages
which the city might lie called upon to
pay and the company ngieed to put
up a bond In the sum of VJO.000 to In
demnify the city fiom any loss If the
Ilaslmiis should sue.
AV. J. Hand spoke btielly. explaining
that councils, under the law, have a
perfect light to close any stieet if tho
majority of the property nwneis sign
a. petition providing for such a dos
ing. The oidlnance was pas.Jed on Hist

AS SOLICITOR VIEWS IT.
Talk of Electing a JVtayor to Servo
Until Apiil 1. He Says, Is
the Veiicst Nonsense.
In view of the ninny aiguiuents
which have been advanced In an at
tempt to prove that Kcianton has at
the ptesent lime no legal chief cecu
tive and that Itetoider Jlolr cannot
legally ui-sumc the duties or his ollice
until the cltv government Is leotgan
l.ed on Apiil 1. city Solicitor Voslmig
vesteuliiv authoiized the publication or
the following statement of his views
on tho question:
"The talk oi elei tlnu a major to
set ve until Apt II I and the contention
that Scianton Is now without a legal
thief executive, me the vctlest non
sense, 11s I vlev the question. At the
moment of the signing ot the pioiln
niatlon declining us to lie a lty of the
second class by the gov el not, we be
en lilt co Instanll such a dt.v. In the
Interim between that time and Apiil
I we continue to woik as a second
duss city under thlul-c lass city laws.
"Xo secoud-dnss city law applies to
this city until April 1. wllh the one
exception of the piovsou of the so
called Upper bill plodding for the ap
pointment of a lecoidor and making It
inondatoiy upon the governor to ap
point said iei older within a peilod of
tliii ty d.ijs
'The powei of making ibis appoint
ment was of a pi ovli-inn.il u.itutc mid
the section of tho bill iittthoilidiig It
was entliely suppleiiH'iitai.v to tho
other legislation which the legislating
was at that time emitting. It Is not In
conillit with the Intent of the Act of
IS'.i.". whldl piovldes that no seiond
da"s city law shall apply to n thiul
c Itlcs city ellteilng llle second i lass
until otter Apt II I.
"Tills act Is mutinied by the Ait of
1901, oi' the ilpper bill, to the extent of
the appointment of a lecoidor and the
assumption bv him or his duties us
soon as he Is appointed. That is the
situation In a nutshell. The ilpper bill
modules tlie euiller ad and such modl
Ikatlons as It makes become tlie law.
"Theie tould be no major dec ted for
this i lty now. because tho ollli e of
mayor Is abolished In cities of the .co
ond class bv the veiy Hist section of
the ilpper bill, and Seiantoii Is at the
