A rule for an injunction was yester-
day granted by Judge Newcomb, at the
instance of the borough OF Archibald
and Mrs. Katherine Kinback, to re-
strain the Elk Hill Coal and Iron COM
pany from running water from it's
washery through one of the borough
streets.
The bill was filed yesterday by the
plaintiffs attorneys, Richard j. Bourke,
John j. Murphy and ex-Judge j. w.
Carpenter. 1t reads as follows

iron pipes. each about six inches in diam
eter. from the I.ackawanna river to it's
said washery
Connected with these pipes are three
pumps by which water is pumped from
the river into the pipes and thus forced
to the washery, where. after being used
In washing culm, 1t Is conducted or caused
by said company, against the consent OF
and without any permission or authority
from said borough or any right what
ever, to flow upon and along a certain
public street. in said borough of Arch
bald. called Bohemian street. and in and
along the ditch OH the side of said street
which is maintained by said borough in
order to carry off. and which is sufficient
to carry off, the water which naturally
accumulatcs and flows upon and along
said street: ard the said water from
said washery also runs across said street
through and under a suice constructed
and maintained by the said borough, and
thence along said Bohemian street. across
Main street into the Iaclia wanna river
by the property of Marion Myers, de-
ceased.
CAUSE OF COMPLAINT.
Second-T'he defendant company has
kept the said pumps running. and is at
the present time. running the same. and

said pipes and caused to run in and along
said ditch. and, by the means thereof.
large quantities of dirt and refuse from
said column and washery are carried by
the said water into and along said ditch

WILL HAVE A STONE FRONT.
Annex to City Hall Will Resemble
Main Building.

The building committee of common
council held Il meeting last night, and
decided to recommend at the next
meeting of council that the police and
fire annex to the city hall be built Of
the Same kind of stone as the munici-
pal building proper
Superintendent of Building Inspection
Browns plans provide for the use of
mottled brick, as he believes that by
using a material essentially different
from that of the city hall, a pleasing
contrast will be afforded, and the an
mex will not present an insignificant
appearance.
The committee will ascertain whether
1t is possible to build an annex three
stories high, instead of two, and still
keep within the limits of the 10000
appropriation. BY thus increasing the
height of the building, they argue that
the principal objection to using the
stone front is removed.
