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

STRIKE IS AT AN END;
MEN RETURN TO WORK
Switchmen Employed by D., L. & W. 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."
