ORDINANCE IS ILLEGAL. City Solicitor Wntson Declnies Meas- uie Providing for Providence Boad Pave to Be Worthless. City Solicitor Watson, In an opinion sent into tolcct council on Tuesday nlKhl, but not icad on account ot the tho oaily adjournment taken, dcclated the ordinance ptovidlnjr for the paving of I'ioldinep road lo be Illegal. The point on which he decides It to be Invalid is ono which has not been pievlously raised: It Is that tho oidl nanto conflletH with the original reso lution passed by both councils and published in the dally papers for sixty days before tho Introduction of the or dinance, as leriulred by low. This resolution notified the pioporty owners that a pac was to becon structed on Court street fiom Provi dence road to Diamond avenue, on Dia mond avenue fiom Coutt street to Piovldence road, and on Providence road from Diamond avenue to tho Car bon street bridge across the Lacka wnnna river. The ordinance, by an oversight on the part of the pel son who drew It up, makes no provision whatever for the paving of Diamond avenue. It provides that a pave shall be laid "fiom Court stieet in ii southerly di i cation to Providence toad," but does not say on what street it is to be laid. In the opinion the city solicitor sets forth that theic arc other ica Minsi vhv tho measure is not legal, but does not lefer specifically to them. It is known, however, that he holds that the petition which was presented, signed by a majority of the propeity ownets and asking for a special hind o pavement, is not to be considered as a petition for a pavement, but mere ly a document signed bv the property owners when they realized that an improvement was being forced upon them. If this is Uue, it would lequire sixteen otcs In both councils to pass the ordinance. Fifteen was the high est number tecoided in either branch in faoi of the measuie It is likelv that either Mi. Finn or Mi. Alwotth will Intioduce a new or- rllii'inon Ir, Mm np.ir future, nnd th.lt btfoie doing so another attempt wilH be made to secuie a petition lor ine pavement signed by a majority of the piopeity owners BOSEVILLE TEAM COMING.

Company in This City Are Again Performing Their Accustomed Duties Tho strike ot tho Lackawanna vard men, which began Tuesday at noon, came to an end at 2.30 o'clock yester day afternoon. The strikers wont into session In Carpcntets' hall yesterday morning, with Grand Mastcr.Fiank T. Ihtwley, of Huffalo, piesldlng, and, after dollberatlnjr for hIx hours, de tided to return to work. Many of tho men went direct from the meeting to tho yard, without waiting to change their clothes, and statted In to iclleve tho congested switches. Last night the full force was at work, and the full day force 1b expected to be on hand this morning. What transpired at the meeting would not he given out bv the switch men, 'but It la understood the grand master advised Ihem to return to work and leave the adjustment of their grievances to their officers. A committee of tho strikers waited on General Superintendent Clarke In tho morning to arr.tnge for a confer ence between him and Grand Master Hawley, regarding tho reinstatement of the two discharged men. Supeilntend ent Clarke declined to confer on this matter, and told the committee that ho could not bring himself to consider this a matter demanding a conference. Tho men had been discharged, he said, be cause their services were unsatisfac tory to the company and not for any other reason. RETURNED TO WORK. The strike s returned to wotk with out exacting conditions. They were pleased, however, to find upon their re turn that the two men who had been brought on from Hoboken to take the placos of Herrlty and Toomey weie not about, and that Yardmaster E E Nowoll had announced he would ap point two men from the Scranton yard to the positions which the discharged men had filled. These are .semi-official positions, Hemty having ibeen an as sistant yaidmaster, at a salary ol $1011 a month, and Toomev being net in lino under Henity. The fact that men were imported from another division to till these places was quite as much a gilevance to the strikei.s as weio the discharges Yardmaster Now ell said yesterday to a Tribune repoiter that he would today announce the names of the men to be piomoted. John Murray, the assistant yai ilmas tei, who quit rather than insttuct the Imported men, was at woik vestei day afternoon. General Supeiintendent Clarke said he understood Mm i ay had not been discharged, but had resigned, and if he wished to resume his position he would be permitted to do so "I don't propose to be thin-skinned In such matteis," the superintendent added. As a lestilt of the strike, all tho mines sending coal over the Lackawanna had to shut down yesterday The few switchmen on hand during the morning were utilised to steer the first-class tialns and fast freights through the yard. In the afternoon and last night tho mine tuns were manned with extra hands to take away the coal from the mine switches and supply empty cats EXTRA HANDS PROTESTED. The etra train hands who weie or deied to icport for duty at 7 o'clock esteidav morning came around on time, but only a few- of them would agiee to work in the vaid. The othots, in a body, wilted on the company offi cials to protest against doing anv switching They were told that the company would not insist on their doing any work other than that for which they were regul.uly employed Those extia men who were not sent out on runs went home. It is believed now that 'the switch men decided to return to work with the undei standing that the grievance which caused them to go out on Tues day will 'be included with tho othei grievances which they will call upon the company to adjust at the geneial confeience they expect will take place May 1, when, among other things, a demand will be made for a uniform scale of wrages throughout the whole Delawaie, Lackawanna and Western sj stem. The ofllceis of the local switchmen's union deny all knowledge of the 10 poited confeience at Huffalo of tho switchmen of the vaiious roads entei Ing thete. Though the stilke only lasted ft day, It caused a gieat loss to a largo num ber of business houses and manufac turing establishments, besides the loss entailed by throwing thousands of men and boys out of woik at the Delawaie, Lackawanna and Western inlnes.whloh had to shut down becauso they could get no cars. WHAT TRUESDALE SAID. AVith teftienco to the Switchmen's stiike, the New York Commticlal Ad veitlser of last night ci edits Presi dent Truesdale with making the fol lowing statement: "It has come to a pass nowadays," ho said, "whole tho position of tho employer has been mado deeldedoly uncomfortable. Our oftlcluls aie con stantly occupied in meeting various committees of the men and taking tip time in the consideiathm of sots of ridiculous and absurd gilevances. Our men nto well paid and well tieated; theie can bo no question of that. Wo have been always ieady to treat with them on tho question of wages, but we must absolutely refuse to submit to oi even enteitaln any pioposlthm In tho matter of discipline." NOTHING KNOWN OF IT HERE. Reported Combine of Locomotive Works Believed to Be a Myth. Tho rumors which have gone abroad In the land tegardlng a gigantic loco motive trust to be formed by those con nected with the J, P. Morgan Interests, mention the Dickson Manufacturing company as ono of the concerns which would bo embraced by tho tentacles of the octopus. An nitlclo In Tuesday's New York Journal gave tho ten large locomotive plants of the countiy, the Dickson among them, as the concerns destined to bu absoibed. Tho com pany's local officials deny all know ledge pf any deal being on. Said one of them yest,eiday; "In a desultory way we have heard vague rumors of a trust being likely to be formed, but never anything definite. Pereonally, I take no stock in the ic port. The mere fact that tho Baldwin Locomotive Alanufactuilng company, of Philadelphia, Is mentioned among the companies which would be Involved In tho deal convinces me that there Is no foundation for tho rumor. "This company Is about the laigost In the countt v, being as big as tlneo or four ordinary ones, and Its pulley Iihh always been openly deelund as antt eotnibliic. Thev have tppciledlv slated they would never go into anv combine, and therefote I think there Is little likelihood of their being a party to this transaction. Then, too, many of the companies mentioned are practically owned by big railroad companies, and this, too, would militate against the formation of a trust." POSTAL REGULATIONS.
