AGAINST LINDEN STREET BRIDGE.
Those Who Favor thu Structure for Mul

perry street Met Last Night
A meeting of Scranton citizens as
sembled in the arbitration room of tn g
court house last night to argue the
matter of changing the location of the
proposed bridge from Linden to Mul-
berry etreet.
H. L. Paine was chosen chairman,
Ben Samter, secretary, and Israel Bit
tenbender, treasurer.
A committee OF five, consisting of j.
M. Kemmerer, Samuel Samter. John
b. Barrett, Joseph O'Brien and w, H.
Hazlett was appointed to procure an
opinion from an attorney relative to
legal obstructions that may be met in
asking councils to agree to the change.
A vote of those present was taken on
the sentiment for or against the
change. Only one member favored the
Linden street site.
Another committee Of three. B.
Moses. William Bume and Frank
Robling, sr,, was appointed TO solicit
funds to carry out the project
The main objections against the
Linden street site on which all present
were Of one mind are that the bridge
could be built $50, 600 cheaper at Mu,-
berry street because the span would he
considerably shorter, the grade would
not be 50 heavy and the right Of ways
wOnld not be 80 costly.
The only objection tn the Mulberry
street site is that two big culm dumps
would hem in the bridge. This was
met 10y the statement that the dumps
would disappear, in time, thoy would
either be cleaned sli used for fuel or
utilized by filing mp mine space.
The committee OF five was empower
cred with ways and means func.
tions and will have the matter OF ar.
ranging for future meetings in their
hands
