THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE- FRIDAY, MMftrjAUV 28," 1902.
INDUSTRIAL
AND LABOR
COST OF THE LAST YEAR'S IMPROVEMENTS.
Xnckawimna Railroad Spent n Vast
Sum of Monoy in Repairs and New
Work Somo Statistics Concerning
the Earnings and Expenses of the
Company Tho Board for Today.
Reported Merger of All Public
Lighting Companies of Greater
Now York Soft Coal at Duluth.
Tho cost or various renewals, im
provements nnd additions of un un
usual churactcr to tho property of tho
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
tho past year rtBRi-egates $l,228,9ii3. In
nddltton to $259,840 for repairs to
bridges, there was expended the sum ot
51,007,255 for new steel brldRes erected
ut different points on the line to take
the place of old ones which were light
nnd unsafe for tho company's present
truffle. In most cases the masonry
under tho old bridges had to be torn
down either In whole or part, und new
substructures built.
During the past two years 25,770 tons
tot new steel bridges have been con
Btructea, aggregating in length of
double track 2.3 miles, und costing
about $2,022,000.
In order to brlnir all the bridges on
tho main line up to the standard of tho
requirements of the business of the
company it will be necessary to pur
chase and construct about 20.000 tons
more of steel bridges, the cost or which,
with the masonry to be rebuilt, will be
between $1,500,000 and $2,000,000.
President Truesdale says that with
the longer trains handled came the ne
cessity for increased passing track
facilities, also tho need of a third main
track on the heavy grades on the line,
this to facilitate the movement of the
heavy slow freight trains over such
portions of the line where they have in
the past been unduly delayed while
waiting for trains of a superior class.
Much work of this kind has been com
pleted, but more is under way and will
bo put In use during the coming year.
Many new and modern station build
ings have also been constructed the
past year, nnd 8,690 tons of SO-pound
Btcel rails and fastenings, a decrease
na compared with 3900 of 6,770 tons,
nnd BS2.8S4 crossties, or 88,902 more than
in 1900, were laid.
Or the policy of the road President
Truesdale says: "It is tho policy and
purpose of the management to make
liberal expenditures for the improve
ment of the physical condition of tho
property, nnd for the provision of mod
ern, up-to-date equipment and facil
ities of every kind, with the view of
being able to serve its patrons prompt
ly and etllclently ut a cost per unit of
trafiic as low as that of any other rail
way company. Likewise by slmlllar
liberal and judicious expenditures on
the coal mining properties of the com
pany to put them In condition to mine
its full share of the anthracite coal
marketed each year, at a cost that shall
bu as low as that of any other an
thracite mining interest." Philadelphia

Liberal Unionists Decline to Join His
Now Party,
liy Exclushe Wire Irom the Associated Pre".
London, Feb. 2". The Liberal Itnlonlsts, nl
the annual meeting of the Liberal Unionist conn,
rll today, definitely repudiated any desire to en
rol! tlictnschea under Lord Hotelier-' banner.
Tho Duke of Devonshire, lord president ot the
council, who presided, declared Lord Rosehery
Ii'jM done great service In dissociating himself
from tho pro-Boer element, but the speaker
f.illtd to see how tho Liberal Imperialist p-irly
conl-1 offer any inducements tp the Unionists.
Men who refused to piny the game and Impar
tially blamed olhera all mound, whether Kip
Hint or Rosebcry, would meet with scant sympa
thy. Tho country was not dlpo.ed to follow the
Hag of statesmen who had quietly looked on
wlill'i the new guides ot the Liberal party had
led H deeper und deeper Into the inlre, Ho
Bmpitlil7cil with Lord Rosebcry' offer to recon
struct tho party, but the speaker did not expect
Ids efforts would be attended with Micces'. In
the meanwhile he believed the Unionists would
adhere to their own party.
The resolution passed by the meeting lefeircd
to the openly expressed hopes of the lloschcry
ites of getting Unionist reerultn, and declared
these hopes were quite groundless,
As reported in a culiln despatch from London
last night, Loul Rosebcry has iiuthnilzcit the
founatlon of a new Llbcial league, with him
self as president and 11. II. Asqullli, formerly
home secretary; Sir Henry Fowler, the foimer
secretary of state for India, and Sir Edw-jtd Crey,
who was paillamcntary secretary for foielgu af
fairs, as vice presidents, to act as iiiithorltnthely
announced, in conjunction with the rest of ilio
Liberal opposition on the lines of the policy ex

Common Council Fixed Now Lines
for West Scrnuton Limits Amend
ments Adopted Providing- for Re
duction in Cost of Permits Gon
eral Appropriation Ordinance Was
Passed on Third Reading and tho
Bond Ordlnnnco Advanced to Two
Readings,
Common council passed the sencrnl
appropriation ordinance on third und
final readlnir last night without dis
citpslon and passed the bond ordinance
on first and Fecond readlnir without
amendment. The building ordinance,
however, was very thoroughly amend
ed before being' passed on second read
ing. The ordinance had been referred
hack to tho committee for further con
sideration at a previous meeting, and
Mr. Keller presented the committee's
report last night. The committee rec
ommended that n change be made In
the tiro limits provided for by the
original ordinance.
The ordinance, as Introduced, provid
ed for the extension of the fire limits
to the we.t side of the Lackawanna
river, taking In the territory Included
between tho river, Scrnnton street, a
lino drawn ISO feet to tho west of the
westerly side of Alain avenue nnd
running parallel with that thorough
fare and West Linden street. The
committee recommended that tho lim
its be changed so as to Include only
that portion of West Scranton lying
between the river, Scranton street, tho
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
tracks and West Linden street, and
both sides of Main avenue between
Scranton and AVest Linden streets.
The changes were made in the ordin
ance. Mr. Kunne offered an amendment
ptrlklmr out a line providing for tho
payment of fifty cents for permit for
unclassified work costing less than
$100, but the amendment was voted
down. Air. Partridge offered an amend
ment providing that llfty cents shall
bj tl.ti charge for the installation of a
healing plant costing less than $250
nnd ?2.i"0 the charge for all such plants
costing more than $250. This amend
ment was adopted.
ABOUT PERMITS.
Another amendment offered by .Mr.
Partridge provided that no permit
shall be rc (Hired for an alteration un
less it shall be deemed by the super
intendent to be a substantial altera
tion. This ttlso was adopted.
A. L. Lewis offered an amendment
striking out a provision making the
salary of biiildliifj Inspector $750 a
year. lie stated that Air. Sykes had
told him that bo (Sykcs) had read In
The Tribune a statement made by
Superintendent Urown in which the
latter had said that he didn't need an
assistant or inspector. Superintendent
Urown, who was present, was asked
if this was true and stated that he
wasn't responsible for newspaper ut
terances. Mr. Lewis' amendment was
voted down.
It might be well to mention that The
Tribune did not make Air. Brown say
that he had no need for ti building in
spector in Ills office. It did make him
say, however, that he had no further
use for a particular inspector, T. 15.

follows:
"I linve not removed him. I have dis
