The Latter Election Effected Under tho Same Agreement A Council Mee'.lng That Ended In a Love Feast-Other Business at tho Meeting. A lengthy and what may liavo lccn a cross-fire meeting of tho Borough Council culminated last night in a model lovo feast. During tho early part divisions wcro called on Sovcral questions and the rcspectlvo party members differed with each other In gcnuhlo ftvrangllng and dilly-dally fashion, but before lrjcsldeut James' gavel Icll miauy tuc mm ocfhelped tho Republicans to elect a Couucilm-aW" tuo Second ward and tho Bo. publicans aiW"1110 ro- c(;tlon f fc' Bettoridgo as'tSii 4 1 !.,.... ..riier umiusiuuii than ' .1" ? .1 r-rrVAfcte.

Gable Mr. McElhenny's resignation was read dur ing tho latter part of tho evening. When tho question of filling tho vacancy in tho Second ward camo up Mr. Bochm nominated Charles bchoppo and I10 was elected by acclamation on motion of Mr. Lally. This election was at once followed by tho re-election of Oscar Bettendgo as water superintendent by 7 Democratic votes to cast by tho Ilepublicaus for Mr. Lamb. For tho benefit of tho uniniatcd it may bo stated that tho llvu Itepubllcau mombers affected a conipromiso with the Democratic members just before Council was called to order and that compromise brought about tho elections above stated. Tho agreement was that if the Ilepublicans should take part In tho meeting they would be allowed to elect a Itepubllcau successor to Mr. McElhcnny and. in return, tho Democrats, having a majority with tho presenco of twelve members, could elect Mr. Betteridge. Had this compromise not been affected tho result would havo been that tho Republicans would absent themselves until they eould have got together enough of their own members to at least make atio voto and prcveut Mr. Betteridgo's re-election, and the business of tho borough would havo been stalled, so tho arrangement was credltablo to both parties. A request from tho Shenandoah Electric Illuminating Company for permission to put in additional poles to strengthen its lines ami extend its lino on White street, north of Coal was referred to tho street committee with power to act. A complaint by David Johnston that tho Shenandoah Lumber & Feed Co. had blocked East Coal street with lumber was referred to the Chief Burgess. The street committee reported that a trco in front of tho Quiim prpporty on West C'eutro street and trees on Xorth White street obstructed tho public streets and tho Chief Burgess was instructed to look after tho places. Tho street committeo was instructed to givo immediate attention to tho complaint that there aro too many fire plugs and posts in front of tho Bell property, corner of Centro and Chestnut streets, and I'etcr Ililey's property, on West Oak street. The flro apparatus committeo was author ized to replaco tho gong on tho hook and ladder truck. Xo action was taken on Mr, Boeso's report that tho Columbia hose carriage Is not serviceable. Thcro was a difference of opinion as to whether tho carriage could bo repaired. Mr. Coakloy stated that tho two additional electric lights had been placed on Coal street and Mr. McGulro reported that a grade stono had been fouud at one cud of West Applo and Huckleberry alley, but it could not lo determined what had becomo of tho stones at tho other ond. Mr. Magarglo stated that tho steel colls would bo completed in a day or two, aud recommended that a now lloor ho placed In tho lockup. Ho reported bids of 8 cents per snuaro foot fqr a tar walk, 18 for !lag-5tono aud 15 for cement, tho walk to bo laid from Jardiu street to tho lockup. Tho matter was laid over until tho next meeting After some discussion it was decided that two cells lu the lockup shall bo set aside fur uso by Constablos aud three by tho regular police. Mr. Coakloy announced that the law com mittco concurred In the opinion of Borough Solicitor I'omoroy that it takes a majority of tho members of Council present to ellect an election, and not a plurality. Tho point was raited by Mr. Lally when Mr. Betteridge received 7 votes, Mr. Lamb (J and Mr. Gablo 1 on a ballot for Water Superintendent. Mr. Lally claimed Mr. Betteridge had been elected and the question was referred to the Solicitor by motion. Tho contract of William hchmlckor for hauling coal from Braudonvillo to1 water works pumping station expired on the loth inst., and tho water committeo was Instructed to make a now contract and receive pro posals and report at tho next mooting. request by J, Arthur Moyer, manager of tho Factory Shoo Store on Iortli Main street, for permission to erect a boot blacking stand lu front of oue of the company's show win. dows, to bo in chargo of a hoy, was ruled out by the President on the ground that the Council had no jurisdiction. The flro marshall made a request for tho purchase of four dozen badges for tho De fender Hose Company and six dozen for tho Phoenix aud It was granted. V request from J. I 1'loppert for exonera tion from taxes for ISM on account of hav ing been burned out by tho flro of June, 18D5, was referred to the finance committee. Tho pay roll of water works employes, us presented by Superiiiteudeut Bctterldgo at tho last meeting, was ordered paid. Tho ordluauco committee was instructed to prepare an amendment to tho water works ordluance, providing that the Superinten dent shall servo until his successor is elected. The chairman of tho street committee was empowered to authorize the Schuylkill Trac- tlon Company to raiso Its track on Main street, between Lloyd and Coal streets, In such a manner as not to mako tho borough responsible for damages.
