Mr. E. J. Davies appeared and complained
that wagons left on North Pear alley, near
bis livery stable, formed olwtructlous that
damaged his buslnoM. Attention was also
called to tho same stato of affairs in other
parts of tho town, and tho Chief Burgess was
instructed to give tho matters attention.
Edward Dowling, of West Co.il street, ap
peared and complained that when tho pave
ment was laid In front of his property by the
Chief Burgess, it was not done according to
grade. Mr. Dowling said it cost him $8.78 to
put tho pavemeut in proper condition, and
that if Council would allow him that ex
penditure ho would pay tho Council's claim
for tho work. There was considerable dis
cussion over tho matter, as tho matter is in
tho Sheriff's hands, and when Borough
Solicitor Burke was called upon for an
opinion he stated that tho objection should
have been raised before tho lien for tho work
was reduced to Judgment. Under this view
of the matter Council decided not to Inter
fere, except to give Mr. Dowling more tlmo
lu which to nrrange for payment. On a
similar claim against Mrs. Gallagher n $."
payment was accepted, and the balance is to
be paid In monthly installments.
A report wis mado by tho street committee
that Mr. Ash, manager of tbo Lakeside
Electric Railway, was williuc to haul awav
the mud that may be removed iu cutting
down East Centre street, and do anything
else likely to promote harmony between the
compauy and the borough. This resulted in
a resolution that the street committee make
tho arrangements for tho hauling, provided
no chargo will bo made for it. If Mr. Ash
Intends to charge, then the hauling bo done
by teams.
A complaint was made in behalf of Mr.
Breunau, ot the First ward, who threatens to
raiso the grade iu front of his property unless
a culvert there Is covered by tho borough.
Tho matter was left in tho hands of the
street committee, with power to act.

ous condition of Plum alley, owing to tbo ex.
cavation made some time ago for the pro
posed electric light station. The Chief Bur
gess stated that Mr. J. J. Franoy had nroiu
ised to make the place secure as soon as the
weather would permit, and said he would
call upon Mr. Franey again to-day.
The statement was mado that bad condi
tions existed in several parts of tho borough,
simply becanao the paid ofilcials fail to do
their duty.

Mr. Jones was asked if he was a rela
tive of any United States official in
Philadelphia and he replied in the nega
tive. He snld that on the day before
Governor Stone's Inauguration he called
upon Sir. Laubach with a message from
Ills brother that the latter could not eom
to Hnrrislmrg nt the time lie exectfd.
Lnulmi'li was not nt his hotel when
Jones railed, and he did not see him un
til the following day. lie did not ask
Laubach to vote for Quay, nor did he
ever say to hlni that lie could obtain a
elerkhip In the custom houc if he
voted for Quay. Mr. Jones said that
Lniilineli told him before the senatorial
caucus that lie was going to vote Rgainst
Sir. Quay, and complained about the
small salary lie received as a clerk in
John Wnnaninker's store In Philadel
phia, lie testified that Laubach told
Mm that he signed n paper nt the office
of ex-Senator Porter pledging himsell
not to vote for Quay if nominated and
elected. Jones made u general deinul
of the allegations of Representative
Laubnrh nnd his brother.
Representative Laubach denied Hint he
told Jones that he signed a paper at
Porter's office pleilcinic himself not to
vote ncninst Quay.
At the evening session Thomas A. Hen
dricks and SI. S. Collins, of Jerrayn,

mittee, to the effect that they saw ex
Senator Coyle, of Philadelphia, give

lin, of Lneknwnnnn.
Sir. Hendricks testified thnt he nnd
Sir. Collins enme to Harrisburg on Jan.
