The Lackawanna Telephone ordin-
ance is lost, strayed or stolen. 1t was
taken from City Clerk Lavelles office
some time during the afternoon or
early evening, Thursday and up to the
close of office hours yesterday no trace
of it has been found.
The ordinance passed third reading
at the last meeting of common council
and after being entered on the minute
books by Clerk Hugh a. Jones, was
sent down to the city clerks office with
n bundle of other measures that were
to go before select council for concUr-
renee.
These measures, as is the practice,
were placed in the Fifth order" box,
which is kept in an open cabinet in the
city clerks office.
At Thursday nights meeting the
fifth order or concurrent business was
all presented and acted upon but no
telephone ordinance appeared. City
Clerk Lavellc did not notice that the
ordinance was missing until one of tho
members came to him after the meet
ing and asked what had become of 1t.
LAVELLE KNEW NOT.
Cicy Clerk Lavelle was at loss for an
answer. and could only say he would
look it up. Yesterday ne looked it
both up and down. but his search was
unavailing.
Clerk Jones of the common council
when questioned about the matter said
he knew nothing of the present where
| abouts of the ordinance. IF it was in
his Office it was there unknown to him.
He took it down stairs to the city clerk
and if it was not there he could offer
no suggestion as to where it had got
ten tC.
City Clerk Lavelle says that Clerk
Jones came down in the afternoon Of
Thursday ana asked to he given the or
dinance as some of the members did
! rot want it presented until the sue
Ceeding meeting As Clerk Jones is a
! new man in city hall and inexperienced
! in the "doings" of its dcnzcns. City
! Clerk Lavclle offered him some advice
ir the matter of granting requests that
were liable to get him into trouble
and Mr.. Jones departed--as far as Mr..
Lavelle knows-without the ordinance.
JONES MEANT NO WRONG.
Mr. Jones thought there was nothing
Irregular in the request made, he
says. and the fact that he practiced nc
| surreptitious methods in attempting to
carry it out. tends to prove his inno-
CenCe of any wrong doing.
The fact still remains that the ordinl-
ance is missing and that there was q
| desire on the part OF certain persons
that it should disappear-for a time ut
lease. City Clerk Lavelle will not be
satisfied with the return of the ordin-
! ance. He will insist on knowing what
| caused its disappearance, and who
| caused it to disappear
