Gable-"I understood that the reason the
work on East Centre street was stopped
was because there was no small stone, and
if that was the only reason why it should
be stopped it was foolish. l went up to
the crusher al d saw plenty of small stone
there.
James--"There is no question but that
a mistake was made in stoniDg that street
when they knew the pipe line was to 20
in"
Then several members mentioned con
siderable street work required. Deyels
said he had heard nothing about the COM
plant from Chestnut and Gilbert streets,
which he made at the last meeting. Coax
ley said he recommended improvements at
Lloyd and limerick streets twice
Holman then went back to the street
stoning and said 1.-THE stone has been put
on the streets and taken off again and what
is the condition of the streets now? They
are in fearful condition and the people
are complaining on all sides. The streets
we're never in such bad condition as now.
Lamb said the steam heating company
promised to put the streets in good con-
dition within few days.
Coakley then called attention toa culvert
on East Centre street and stated that it
should be enlarged and then S. G.. M.
Hollopeter, Esq, was allowed to make a
few remarks on another matter. He said
that he and T. r. Beddall, Esq, had been
employed by Taliesin Phillips to present a
claim for damages against the borough for
allowing an improper drainage in front OF
the property in which he resides. Mr.
Phillips claims that the nuisance caused
sickness in his family that caused the
death of one of his children.
The matter was referred to the Sanitary
and Law Committee with instruction to
consult with Mr.. Phillips attorney.
Then Council went back to street work
and series of motions followed. Nc.
Guire moved that the First ward culvert
complained of be enlarged; Devers moved
that the complaint from Chestnut and Gil
bert streets be attended to; Lamb moved
that Laurel street be opened to the Lehigl
Valley railroad and that fences be placed
at the ends of Jardin and West streets
and Coakley moved that a gutter be put il
at the corner OF Lloyd and limerick street,
and crossing on Union street. All thes,
motions we're carried.
