EASTERN LEAGUE.
Providence Wor Its Third Successive
Game From Scranton.

BY the defeat OF Scranton yesterday,
Providence completed its string OF 10 sue
cessive victories, and sent the Scrantons
to fourth place In the race. Scranton as
at present constituted Is the weakest
team and unless changes are made, II viii
be taii-ender. OF course the new team
was no match for the aggregation of vete-
ran stars, representing Providence, and
three straight victories from them isn't
much to blow about.
Every error they made contributed to
the Gray's success, for prompt advantage
was taken of them. Scranton never saw
faster fielding, more daring base running
and surer batting. In fact, Scranton is
not stuck on Providence. Score:

CONTRACT WORK.

The action Of Highway Commission
er Ladd in refusing 10 improve West
avenue as ordered by the Board of Al
dermen and in deciding to let out by
contract the construction of sewers In
Dartmouth and Trenton streets and
Glenwood avenue against th" wishes OF
the Joint standing COMMITTEE on Sew
ers is being severely criticised.
Petitions are coming in from all sec
tions Of the city for sew II work and
the Committee on Sewers and the City
Council are doing tho best they can To
accommodate them; but ther efforts
are neutralized by the action or rather
the inaction Of the Commissioner Of
Public Works.
The Committee on Sewers at its last
meeting was unanimously opposed TO
the further building Of sewers by con
tract because Of the necessity Of pro
yiding work for the residents OF our
own city. If the contract is given out
the contractor brings TO this city
horde II outsiders who have no inter
est in the community They are as
rule Of roisterous disposition and the
only uutice they create in the life OF
the G !, is in the activity of the police
department. If the work is done by
the bonafde residents of the city, the
owners of tenements. the stOrekcepo rs
and every class in the city are helped.
The TRIBUNE only voices the sense OF
the community when 1T protests against
the autocratic action of Commits
sioner of Public Works Ladd and it is
to he hoped that the course outlined
by him will not prevail as it is certain
ly against the best interests OF the city
ms a whole, although the sewer might
be built few dollars cheaper than if
done by day work.
