The proposed location of an electric
light plant in Kcyscr Valley by the
recently incorporated West Scranton
Electric Light company. will mean a
great deal to the residents Of this side.
The charter for the proposed company
has been granted by the authorities at
Harrisburg and all that remains to in
sure the undertaking is the granting
of a franchise by the city councils. In
conversation with The Tribune repre-
sentative yesterday q director of the
. proposed plant outlined the plan of op-
Grafton which the company intend to
carry out, and added that II a fran
Chise is granted. capitalists stand
ready to invest sl50,0OO in the new
plant.
The company proposes TO furnish
electric light to every household in
West Scranton and the North End at
a contract rate of S1.60 to $3.50 per
month for each house and thus do
away with the present meter system
now in use. They propose to supply
new lamps when burned out, but will
not replace them when broken by care
lessness.
In addition to the low rate for lights,
the director stated, the company pro-
poses to offer to the city proposition
which the councils cannot afford to ig-
more, and which will be of incalculable
benefit to the city.
Besides the location of the electric
light plant, negotiations are pending
for the purchase of one of the large
culm dumps in Keyser Valley, by two
well-known men, who will operate a
washerv in conjunction with the cleo
trio light plant.
II is expected that the deal for the
culm pile will be closed in a day or
two, and work on the washery be COM
mencod at once. The new industries
will give employment to a number Of
men, and become important factors in
the manufacturing interests of the
Electric City.

INJUNCTION AGAINST SHERIFF
Restrained from Selling the House
and Lot of Evan Tucker.

c. A. Van Wormer, referee in bank
ruptCy, yesterday issued an injunction
to restrain Sheriff Pryor from today
selling a house and lot at Carbondale
owned by Evan Tucker, Jane Car
son had mortgage of $500 against
fuckers house and she foreclosed it
recently in the county court, whereup-
on it was advertised for sale along
with other properties by the sheriff to-
morrow forenoon.
Tucker belonged to the firm of Tuck
er & Maxey. They were recently de-
ciared bankrupt. Since they were de-
clared bankrupts the foreclosure was
begun by Mrs. Carson. The United
States court, Referee Van Wormer
says, is the proper place for the sale to
take place and not in the county court
and for that reason the injunction was
issued. 1t is the first time such an
injunction has been issued.
