f
CLOSING OP
CENTER STREET
ORDINANCE NEARING ITS
NAL PASSAGE.
n-
Desplto Strenuous Objection, It Got
Through Two Readings in Com
mon, Council D. and H. Company
Wilt Rompve Platform from
Cherry Street, but Some Membors
Wanted tho Remington Avenuo
Switch Also Removed Police
Magistrates Salaries Fixed.
The ordinance providing for tlio
closing or the westerly end or Center
Htrcct occupied the attention of com
mon council last night for nearly an
hour, and despite- tlio decided opposi
tion manifested lis backers succeeded
In passing it on first and second read
ings. Chairman Cuslck, of the streets and
bridges committee, mesentod a favor
able report on tho ordinance, together
Willi two communications from C. S.
Weston, general agent of tlio Delaware
and Hudson Railroad company. In
these communications Mr. Weston
pledged himself to remove the platform
obstructing Cherry street, lu tlio Twen
tieth wnrd, when the necessary legis
lation Hosing the roadway running
around the platform had been passed,
providing, of course, that the Center
street ordinance was passed.
Mr. Phillips, xvlio led the opposition
to the measure, moved to have the or
dinance referred back to committee for
a report upon the removal by tho com
pany of Its switch on Remington ave
nue, In addition in the removal of the
Cherry street platform. Tills evoked a
deal of discussion and Mr. "Weston, who
was present, was given the floor to
explain the company's Intentions in
the mntter.
MU. "WESTON'S EXPLANATION.
Mr. Weston explained that tho com
pany would willingly open up Cherry
street when tlio other roadway now In
use was closed. Tho cloning of Center
street could possibly injure no one but
tho Delaware and Hudson company, ho
said, and that company xvantcd It
closed. He said that the Remington
avenue switch was eight feet within
Hie company's right of way and that
a. proposition to remove it could not
bo considered any more than a propo
sition to remove the company' main
tracks.
President Calpiu wanted to know
why tlio committee hadn't looked over
the ground and reported whether there
was not some other place to xvhieh tho
switch could be removed. Mr. Part
ridge, a member of the committee, said
that in his opinion tlio switch could not
he removed to any oilier practicable
place.
Mr. Graf, another member of the
committee, said tbo members of the
committee had not investigated that
point sufllclcntly io bo able to report
Intelligently upon It. Ho wanted the
ordinance recommitted, so that the
members could go upon tlio ground and
Investigate.
Mr. Keller charged that tho whole
object of those who favored recommit
ting was the killing of tlio ordinance.
Mr. Phillips wim not fair in the stand
lie xvas taking, he said. Mr. Phillips
denied the charge and insisted that he
xvnuld vote for the ordinance when ho
thought the city xvas getting a fair re
turn from tho Delaware and Hudson
company.
ORDINANCE PASSED.
Ho renewed his motion to recommit
and it xvas defeated, whereupon tho
ordinance was passed on first reading.
On second reading he offered an
amendment providing that tlio ordi
nance ivould not become operative
until all tho property owners on Center
street between Mifilin and Wyoming
avenues had signed a document releas
ing tho city from all damages which
might bo occasioned by the closing of
tlio other end of tho street.
Mr. Kollar said that the city might
with equal grace ask the people liv
ing on rtldgu row as tlu residents
of Poeono lo sign a release, and Mr.
Pat ridge characterized the amendment
as being "grossly and absurdly un
reasonable." Tho majority of the
members present agreed villi theso
gentlemen, for the amendment xvas de
feated and the ordinance passed on
second rending,
YVhen the ordinance fixing the sal
aries of police magistrates xvas called
up, Mr. Phillips alo had an amend
ment to offer. Tt provided for a uni
form salary of $100 for each of the five
magistrates. Tlio ordinance In its
original form provided for a graduated
salary ranging from $."00 each for the
txvo central city magistrates, to $:!00
for tho South Scranton magistrate.
Mr. Alworth ridiculed tho amend
ment and argued that tho central city
magistrates who hnvo six times as
much to do as tho South Scranton
magistrate, should not receive a hotter
salary. It xvas bad enough, ho said,
to pay a man $200 for collecting lines
amounting to $S7, without paying him
$IOil, Mr. Phillips argued that one
magistrate xvas as good ns another,
"Equal rights to all and favors to
none" xvas his motto, ho snld, and ho
proposed to Ilvo yi to It,
GPURKLL'S ARGUMENT.
Mr. Gurroll also spoke lu favor of
tlio amendment. Tlio magistrates xvere,
all of equal rank, ho said, and .should
receive equal salaries, A policeman In
Green Ridge might make only ton ar
icsts lu n year, but ho received tho
same salary as a policeman In tho cen
tral city, who might have two or throe
arrests every night. Tlio amendment
xvas adopted by the fnlloxvlng vote:
Yeas Ihssflty, IIuiii', A, l. Li'tvls, lluane,

(Iraf, Cuslik, Phillips, lialvln, (talpln-tl,
Nats Clarke, Alnortb, Iloilic, Partildgc, C'ulc.

Tho ordinance xvas then passed on
first and second rending, after Mr,
Keller had made an unsuccessful at
tempt to have action on it Indefinitely
postponed,

delphia and Dayton, O., and has not as
yet made nny proposition to the strik
ers. No attempt Is being made to
operate tlio car shops, although bands
aro daily imported for the other shops,
and tills fact Is taken by some to bear
more than a coinciding significance on
tlio rumored transfer of the shops to
Blnghainton, whore if Is known that
a sixty acre tract of land has been of
fered tho company.
A special meeting xvas hold in Hul
