Exceptions to the findings of Judge
John =. Kelly. In the equity case of
Luther Keller against the City of
Scranton and others, were filed By At
torneys l. II. Burns and II. NJ. Streeter,
attorneys for Mr.. Keller, and were
yesterday afternoon overruled by the
Judge. This puts the case in shape to
go to the Appellate court, but Mr.. Kel-
Ter said last night he had not fully de-
termined whether or not he will take
an appeal.
Exceptions are made to the findings
of fact regarding the expediency and
necessity of the viaduct. 1t Is held by
the exceptants that this is immaterial;
that the question at issue Is not one
of eXpediency but Of power, and that
the necessity for an Improvement in
no way justifies it's construction in an
illegal manner, or without authority Of
law.
The ruling of the court sustaining
the sufiiciency of the title of the ordi-
nance is attacked OH the ground that
the public has u vested right to the
use of the full width of Lackawanna
avenue and cannot be deprived of any
portion of it without notice. of which
there Is none in the title of the ordi-
nance. Other exceptions are noted at
length, as follows:
"There was an apparently contradic-
tory ruling in these two clauses:
1.-The erection of the viaduct will
cause damages to the abutting prop
erty owners, and the amount which
may be recoverable by them may ag-
gregate the sum of 100000, whenever
the same may be liquidated according
to law.
Under the undisputed facts In this
case there can be no further increase
in the city debt, at present, unless au-
thorized by the vote of the electors
thereof
"The court having found that the
debt limit was reached, the plaintiff
can not obtain judgment for damages
for the reason that such limit Will be
a good defense on the part of the city.
"The court having found as a fact
that the two per cent. limit of debt
has been reached, and that there will
be some damages for the city to pay.
If the viaduct is constructed, the court
erred in not issuing an injunction re-
straining such construction.
validity Of the ordinance, there being
no valid specifications; not having
been properly passed. and being too
vague and indefinite to bind anybody"
To inteligently appreciate the eX-
ceptions one must recall that the case
was decided mainly on the meaning of
the word debt" the court holding
that debt" as used in the constitution
is shown by II distinction which the
constitution itself makes, to mean
debt" in it's legal and technical sense.
and not embodying unliquldated dam
ages.
Most of the findings are new law.
and as the Supreme court will be COM
mitting itself for the first time on most
of the questions raised, it Is hardly to
be expected that a very early decision
will be reached.
