LIVELY WAR OF WORDS
Mr.. Dugan and MI. Tumul-
tY Have a Spirited
Discussion.

There was a decided change at the
Board Of Street and Water Commission
ers meeting this morning. The peace
which usually reigns was disturbed
by Street Superintendent "Phil'' Tumilty
who gave a pyrotsehnic display of ora
tory, which provoked heated argu-
ment.
Charles Black was given the privileges
of the floor to explain the OBJ
jections of several property own
ers to the proposed vacation of
academiziug streett and the lowering
OF the grade of Wayne street. Black
simply demanded that the interests OF
property owners be protected.
"Do you represent the PENNSYLVANIA
Railroad Company in this matter. asked
Mr.. Dugan.
II do not" was the reply.
"Who are the people you rep resent"
asked Mr.. ..Dugan.
WHOM HE SPOKE FOR.
"Mr Tumlty aud Mr.. Jonu Kiernan."
replied Mr.. Black.
II don't object to Mr. Kiernau's pro-
testing" said Mr.. Dugan. sbecause he
owns property $50 feet away, but Mr..
Fumilty does not.
This is an uutruth." yelled Mr.. Tum
llLV. VINO SGOOu III Inc lCUUYss
II am not speaking to Tou and don't
want you to talk to me-" retorted Mr.
Dugan. You dou't own property up
there, and l don't propose sitting here
and listening to your talk"
Il demand the right OF citizen to be
heard" interrupted Tumilty.
And | object to that man being
allowed to talk and take up our time.o
interposed Mr.. Dugan.
Il want you to bear iu mlnd," said
Tumilty. ''that you, Mr.. Dugan, are not
the whole community"
81 object to that man being allowed
to talk" insisted Mr.. Dugan. He was
represented by counsel and we have heard
him."
DUGAN VOTED mo-
Commissioner Somers at this point
moved thst Tumilty be allowed TO speak :,
but Mr.. Dugan was obdurate and in-
sisted that the yeas and nays ba called on
the question. Mr.. Dugan voted mo"
Il am opposed to this Railroad Com
pany closing our streets, Railroad ave-
nue., Academy, York. Wayne and Mer-
Ger Streets" said Mr.. Tumulty. when the
vota gave him the right to speak.
THESE Companies have no right to
do it and this board should not aid them
in doing it,"
You have nice cheek to talk about
allowing streets to be closed. You have
closed few in your time yourself" said
Mr.. Dugan.
That is not so,' rstorted Mr.. Tum-
lily.
aYou voted to close .Communipaw ave-
nue. for the Lehig Valley Railroad. -
said Mr.. Dugan, and do not
propose now to listen to your reform
chin. don't take any stock In such re-
former as you are.n
TumuIty again began talking about the
closing of streets when he
was squeched by Commissioner
Cook who assured him that York street
and the other streets south of Railroad
avenue were not to be closed. The
meeting was assuming such a riotous
aspect that President Madden adjourn ed
it until next Thursday.
