In a Formal Notice Mr. Franey Demands That the Change be Made to the Original Grade and Says He Will Demand Damages. The borough is evidently drifting Into liti gation over the grade of East Centre street, between Plum alley and the Lehigh Valley railroad. The property abutting the trouble some pavement is leased by J. J. Franey from the Lehigh Valley Itallroad Company. When Mr. Franey fltst leased It, about three years ago, he decided to lay the pavement at a grade which he thought was beat suited for tho place. He said he secured the per mission from the Borough Counoll to adopt the grade at which the; pavement was laid. This is denied by the Council and Mr. Kane, who was chairman tff the street committee at the time, says that he re peatedly told the Chief Burgess not to allow Mr. Franey toputtliepavementatthatgrade. Tho work was completed, howovcr, and allowed to remain as finished at that time until a few weeks ago, when Armour A Co. asked permission to alter It, to mako it more sultablo'fortho part of tho property they had leased from Mr. Franey. After investigation Council decided to comply with tho request by fixing a common sense gradofortbo half of tho square in front of Armour's now build ing corresponding with tho present grade of properties above, and notify Mr. Franoy to lower tho romalndor of tho payment. Accord ingly Armour & Co. out down the grade of their part of the pavement. Mr. Franoy re fused to cut down his part, declaring that If thorowastoboachaiigeitwoulTl have to be to the origiual grade, aud this would necessitate the cutting down of the grade all the way to Whito street. Council theu decided to glvo Mr. Franey a limited notice to comply with its orders and nt tiie same time In structed tho Chief Burgess aud Supervisor to proceed with the work if Mr. Franey failed to comply with the notice. Yesterday Chief Burgess Tabor nnd Supervisor Llowol lyii started men on tlio work. This morn ing Mr. Franoy visited the place and said ho would insist upon tho change being made to tho original grade, but tho work was not stopped. Mr. Franoy was ovldcn'ly de termined, ns ho went forthwith to his coun sel, and ns a result of tho consultation tho following document was issued and served ou the Chief Burgess and Supervisor this aftcrnoou : "SiinsAxnoAii, 1'a , Juno 15, 1897.

COMMITTEE'S RECOMMENDATIONS I The Abolition of Company Steres, Whlo'a Are Deolared Un-Amerloan, and an Appeal For a Law Restricting Foreign Immigration. Ilarrlsburg, June 15. The Joint com mittee appointed to Investigate the condition of the miners in the anthra cite coal regions last evening made Its report to the senate. Sena'tor Meredith, chairman of the committee, presented the report. "The testimony taken," says the re port, "shows conclusively the deplor able condition of affairs for a period covering about two years, and particu larly since the first of January of the present year, since which time the men in and nbout the collieries have been employed not more than two to three and three-fourths days per week, earn ing on an average about S4 per week, upon which. In many Instances, they are compelled to support large families. The greatest destitution and want Is found In Mahanoy city and Its vicin ity, Shenandoah and Its vicinity, Hazle ton and Its vicinity, Shamokin and Its vlclnlly nnd Wllkesbarre nnd its vl cail'y." The report then goes on to say that it seems that the wages now paid are upon the basis agreed upon by the operators and the miner ae far back as 1876. The basis Is then given, and the committee says that "the manner of regulating the wages certainly ap pears to be one which shows a strong disposition on the part of the employ ers to treat labor fairly." "The committee espt-clally Inquired Into the subject of company houses," the report continues, "and found In all cases that the houses wfre roomy and comfortable, nnd that the rents charged were not In excess of those charged by Individuals for houses of the same character in the villages and towns adjoining." The committee also Inquired Into the causes which have brought about the present condition of affairs, and al though numerous reasons were ad vanced the majority of witnesses thought It duo to the depressed condi tion of business throughout thecountry. "The surplus labor In and about the mines," asserts the report, "contributes largely to the present condition of af fairs. ' Sneaking of the foreigners working In the mines, the report gays: "Non- English speaking miners and laborers, with English speaking ouperlntiHidents nnd foreman, must necessarily produce trouble and render the miner more liable to accidents. The committee is of tho opinion that there will be no general prosperity in the anthracite regions until congress shall have passed a restricted immigration law." Regarding the charges that the high price charged for coal at tide water, thus decreasing the consumption, was the cause of the deplorable condition of the miners, the committee says that for a number of years none of the coal companies, save one, have declared dividends. I'pon the question of freight rates the committee Is of opln Ion that the rates charged are not greater than those charged for other classes of freight. On the subject of company stores the report has this to say: "Wo re gard these stores as un-Amerlcan." The committee makes these recom mendations: First, the enaotment of a law abolishing company stores: sec ond, the prohibiting- of discounting or negotiating money orders belonging to the miners; third, the enaetment of a compulsory semi-monthly pay law; fourth, the repeal of the mlnerB1 ex amining law and the enactment of a law providing for a state board of ex amlners, and that certificates Issued by the board shall entitle the holder to be employed In tiny mine In the state: fifth, the enactment of a law providing for the appointment of an inspector of coal, to examine the coal au It comes from the mlneB-, sixth, the passage of a resolution requesting Pennsylvania representatives In Congress to vote for and urge the passage ot a law restrict Ing foreign Immigration.
