The ordinance providing for the issu-
ance Of 100000 worth Of bonds for the
purpose OF paying off all judgments
and other adjudicated claims outstand-
ing against the city, was passed on
third and final reading by the select
council last night despite what seems
to be q serious technical objection
raised by Mr. Quinnan, and now goes
to the recorder for his approval.
The ordinance provides for the re-
demption of the bonds at five-year i'll
tervals, but Mr.. Quinnan sprung Sec
ton of the ripper" bill on the cotin-
Gil, which apparently provides for a re-
demption at yearly intervals. The por-
tion of the act in question Is a part of
Section / of Article NJ, and reads as
follows:
whenever any new bonds shall be
issued by any of said cities, they shall
be made payable in annual instalments,
equal to the tax levied therefor. and
shall be paid annually from the funds
SO provided"
The members decided to put the
question as to whether the ordinance
is framed in accordance with law up
to Recorder Connell, and passed it on
third reaGins.
Recorder Connell sent in Il commune
cation appointing Rev. DR.. Rogers
Israel as q member OF the bard OF
library trustees to succeed himself,
and the appointment was unanimously
confirmed
The following resolutions we're intro
duced and adopted:
BY MIR. Morgan-Directing the direc-
tor of public works to notify the prop
erty owners on Jackson street, between
Rebecca and Garfield avenues, to put
their sidewalks to proper grade.
BY Mr.. Maloney-Directing the chief
engineer to prepare plans and specifi-
cations for a relief sewer on Poplar
street extending from the Dunmore
line to the Lackawanna river.
Mr.. Cosgrove introduced an ordinance
providing for the erection OF an cleo
trio light on the corner of Edwards
place and Cosgrove court.
The following ordinances were passed
on third and final reading: Providing
for the laying of tlagstone sidewalks on
Sixteenth street and Lincoln avenue,
and increasing the salaries of the city
clerk and his assistant
