The Business Transacted Was of a
Routine Character.
HO WATER WORKS DEVELOPMENTS
A Set of Resolutions Purporting to Hv
Been Prepared by tha Citizens Com
mittee Were Presented and
Laid Over Because no
Signatures Were
Attached.
A logular meeting of tho Borough Council
was held last evening aud attended by the
following members: Messrs. McGuiie,
Ooakley, Lally, lloehm, Straughn, James,
Neiswcntcr, Euglert, Biennati, Bell, Hand,
Murphy and Harkins.
After the reading of minutes and a few
other preliminaries Mr. E. J. Davies pre
sented to Council resolutions adopted by the
Advisory Board of twenty-five citizens
appointed at the recent public meeting held
to take action on the now storage reservoir
for tbo public water works.
Councilman James objected to the resolu
tion ou the ground that thuy were not in
proper form, tho names of tho twonty-five
committeemen being absent. Action iu tho
matter was deferred until the report of the
water committee was taken up for considera
tion, and at that stage of the proceedings the
resolutions weiolaid over to be considered at
a special meeting that will bo called for that
purpose. Mr. Boll wanted the resolutions
rcfened to his committee, but Council did
not take kindly to that proposition, aud his
motion to that eil'ect was defeated.
Councilman Bell, of tho street committee.
stated that a meeting had been arranged to
consider the couditiou of the stream crossing
Last Centio street, fuo bod of the stream
needs cleaning out and property owners In
that vicinity aro suffering damage through
the flooding of their cellais. Tho Meeting
will be held at 10 o clock to morrow morn
ing.
It was also stated that the part of Catherine
sticet recently opened is in good condition.
Complaint was made of stenches arising
from the sewers at tho corner of O.ik street

A motion that tho places be put iu good con
dition at as little expense as possible was
carried.
It was decided to place crossings at tho
north and south sides of the intersections of
Line street and Oat alley.
Chief Burgess Tabor was reminded of the
bad condition of the roadway at tho corner of
Oak street and Plum alley, to which his
attention was called a month ago. He
promised to have tho matter remedied.
It was suited that tho owner of the weigh
scales on North Main street had been notified
to remove them, in accordance with Council's
orders, but nothing has been done in that
direction.
Owing to the depicted condition of tho
treasury it was decided to lay over all bills
before tho meeting, except those for the pay
mout of street hands, salaries and tho men
who tested the flro hose after it was used by
tlio Wm. Penn Coal Company to put out the
tiro in its mine.
Tbo salary of High Constable Devers was
ordered withhold until the official makes a
repoit ou his collections in connection with
the catching of dogs.
The lire apparatus committee reported that
a plug near tho P. & 11. Railway station is
leaking, aud also that a check had been
received from the Wm. Penn Coal Company
for firo hose. A motion that three. additional
lire plugs lie purchased for use in case of
emergency was lost and the committee was
instructed to havo the leaking plug repaired.
Tho Construction Committee was instructed
to request tho Columbia Hoso Company to
repair tho wagon shed at tho rear of the
Borough building, which is reported as being
in a uuapiuateu condition, and also conslilu
the advisability of placing a small window iu
tho small apartment at the rear of the
Council room.
