President McGulre Was Not Prepared to Announce His Committees, But Will Make Them Known at the Next Meeting of Council. The first regular meeting of the new Borough Council was held last evening and it attracted a large attendance of citizens, the most of whom were there through curiosity. Many attended to hear President McGutre announce his committees, but were disappointed, as the president stated that his service on the Grand Jury this week had prevented him from wiving the matter the required con sideration. There was a very tedious wait before the Council got down to business last night, on account of a quorum falling to get together. Messrs. McGulre, Galligan, Kane, Hand, Meluskey, Dougherty and D. K. James were on time. Mr. Kerns walked in about half past eight o'clock and made the quorum and Messrs, Straughn, T. J. James, Gable, McEl benny, Magargle, Boehm and Reese fol lowed Boon after. The delay in the ar rival of these eight members led to a report that the Citizens bad gobbled up KVrns and were laying some plan for retr.lintlon to the James deal, but no one could bring to mind any possible plan. The speculation was dispelled, however, by Mr. Kerns' asurance that he had not seen the absent Citizen members pnd hii delay was due entirely to personal mat ters. It was also subsequently learned that tho latter members had been de tained at a meeting of the Shenandoah Republican League nnd there was no connection between them and Mr. Kerns. Mr. Gallagher, ex-chairman of the water committee, was present and stated that another inspection of the damaged reservoir breastwork at Davis' Run had been made nnd it was found that the break is ZY, feet from the waste way. He recommended that cement be sent over at once to make the repairs. There will be no danger in tbe absence of a freshet The rtcommendatlon was adopted. Mr. Galligan called attention to pave ments on West Cherry street being flooded on account of the gutters being filled with ice and President McGulre in stracted tbe Chief Burgess to carry out tbe orders of Council a- to having prop erty owners open gutters. Mr. Gnfllgan called attention to repairs needed in tho Columbia Hose Company's stable and the president suggested that tbe matter be left over until the new committees are appointed. F. M. s'cott. the engineer employed at Davis' Run, presented a bill for G9 for the month of February, which was based on extra time. The engineer specified days on which he worked twelve and thirteen hours. Mr. Gallagher said tbe engineer was hired on an agreement that he was to be paid 2 per day. Council granted wages at that rate. Mrs. Bridget Lawlor put in a claim for $800 for damages sustained by being struck by a coasting sled. The claim was referred to the law committee. M. M. Burke, Esq., appeared and asked for a hearing on the claims for damages by John Buddel and Mrs. Flynn. They are claims that have been before the Council for some time. Buddel wants damages for injuries sustained In falling into a coal hole on North West Btroet. The law committee repudiated the claim. Mr. Burke also asked consideration of a claim for damages by Mrs. George Lam bert, of Kast Lloyd street, for injuries sustained by falling upon a pavement. No amount was stated. President Mc Gulre promised to refer the matter to the new law committee when appointed. The following bills were presented and ordered paid : 1 F. Uradlgan $ -10 O. H. Kolchurt , 82 U y. J.

CHARGES TO BE PREFERRED RESOLUTIONS CONDEMNING THE ACTION OF THE COUNCILMAN PRESENTED BY A COMMITTEE AND ADOPTED. Another Committee Appointed to Formu late Charges and Notify the Council man to Answer Them at the Next Meeting:. A sequel to the stir that was created by the organization of the Borough Council on Monday was furnished last night by the introduction of the matter betore a meeting of the Shenandoah Republican League. The meeting was an open one and the rooms were crowded. Among the attendants were Messrs. Thomas J, James, McElbenny, C. T. Straughn, Boehm, Magargle, Gable and Reese, the Councllmen who were left out of the organization by the deal. It did not re quire close observation to detect blood on the moon. Councilman David R. James was not present, and perhaps It was well that he was absent, as his Monday night's course was pretty severely criticised and the meeting might have been worse than a Besston of a rattled Congress. Some members of the club were in favor of immediately expelling Mr. James from the membership of the club, but older and wiser beads prevailed and no step in tbat direction was taken. When the matter was taken up for dis cussion the Councllmen in attendance gave their versions of the caucuses held before the deal was made. Some of them were quite emphatic In denying the truth of Mr. James1 version tnd their state ments were directly In conlllct with those which have been made by that gentle man. A committee was appointed to draft resolutions on the matter, and the follow' lng report was presented and adopted : AVllEltKAS. By the action of one David R. James, a Councilman from the Third ward ot tuts borougn, tne win 01 tne people, as expressed by their votes at the election held on tbe 10th ult., has b most basely thwarted ; and, WIIEHKAS, xnesaia James nas in an unwarranted and traitorous manner be traved the purposes for which he wns elected, thus briUL-incr discredit unon tbe organization which took nn active part in his election, and whoso assistance he solicited; therefore, be it Resolved, That we most emphatically nlaco our condemnation uoon bis uncalled fnr and llnnrlnclnled act. which has not alone affected him, but has brought all who were associated with him. or wno cbamDl'ined his cause at tne time of elec tlon, into disrepute nnd subjecting them to tne ridicule oi tnose wuose support they sought in bis behalf. Resolved. That n committee of five be appointed to formulate charges against tbe said James, In accordance with the resolutions a committee was appointed to formulato charces and to notify Mr. James to be present next Thursday evening and make answer. Contrary to expectation, the meeting was not a lively one. There were no hot debates or anything tending to anger. In fact, the meeting was entirely a one-sided matter and there was no presentation of the case from Mr. James' standpoint ot view. The next meeting will no doubt be up to tbe standard of expectation, as it will nssume the form of a trial and all facts bearine upon the matter will be thoroughly rehearsed, Oh, Yes I Oh, Yes! A general invitation is hereby extended to you, your wife, cousin, or aunt, or sweetheart, or anybody eUe, to Bam pie the clam chowder at the Schelfly House this evening.

The Lehigh Valley Railroad, alway s on the alert to Increase the comfort and the convenience of Its utilizers, has initi ated a new system of baggage delivery which will be a great improvement on tbe system at present in use and a valuable aid to the traveling public. W. H Gum- mere, genernl baggage agent ot the road, states that the system will go Into effct on March 15. By this system passengerB can have their baggage checked from the princl .! stations of the road direct to any depot, hotel or residence in New York City below 144th street, and In Brooklyn. The most attractive feature of this new departure Is that the baggage upon Its arrival in New York is placed at once In a special conveyance of the New York Transfer Company (formerly Dodd's Express) and sent immediately to its destination , thereby avoiding any delay In transfer. The cost of this speolal service will be 50 cents for every piece, which Is but a trifle more than the usual charge. By this system baggage can be forwarded in advance of the passenger If so desirod. The necessity of tbe passenger accom panying his baggage or rechecking it on the train is thus done away with. The traveler can send his baggage away in the morning and follow In the afternoon to find his baggage safe at his destination upon his arrival there. Women traveling alone will find the new system a great convenience and one that will relieve them of all worry and trouble looking after their checks and prevent all delay. The Lehigh Valley is to be complimented on its efforts In be half of Its passengers' comfort. Gen, Baggage Agt. Gummere feels confident ot the grett success ot the system.
