OPINION OF JUDGE RODGERS.

SAYS AUEGED OBSTRICTIOS IS JOT A PIBLIO niSASCE. DECISION OF IMPORTANCE. Judge Elliott Rodgers, of Common Pleaa Court No. 2. this morning handed down an opinion deciding that the Allegheny Valley Railway Co.

could not remove the tramway crossing of the Park Steel Co. wer the railroad tracks at the steel company's plant. The decision ef the court is on a suit which has been pending since the earlpart of 10X. The opinion of Judge Rodgers la an interesting one, bearing on the law of the case and for the reason that it is of great importance to one of the city a largest industries. Judge Rodgers says: "The permission gTaiated in the year by the president of the defendant company to Park Brotheys to construct and operate the tramway over the tracks of defendant, having been followed by large expenditures of money by said plaintiffs predecessor in improvements to its plant on the southerly side of defendant's tracks on the strength thereof, and this permissive right having been acquiesced In by defendant for a period of VJ0 years or more, such right became a binding and Irrevocable license from defendant to plaintiff predecessors In title and to plaintiff subsequently to use said crossing in conveying the product of that portion of its plant situate on the southerly side of defendant's railroad to the portion of its plant on the northerly side thereof, and defendant Is estopped from denying the validity of such license; nor can defendant be, permitted after such a long period of time has elapsed to interfere with plaintiff's proper use of the crossing as now operated.

"It having been determined in the Court of Quarter Sessions that the rails of plaintiff's tramway laid on Thirty-first Street, crossing Railroad street between the tracks and rails of the defendant company, do not constitute a public nuisance; nor does the operation of the tramway along Thirty-first street and across Railroad street constitute a public nuisance, therefore, inasmuch a a removal of the tramway by the defendant would work irreparable Injury to the plaintiff, until it be established at law that tha tramway is a public nuisance, defendant will be restrained from interfering therewith. The right of redress of a public nuisance lies with the public, unless defendant can show special Injury peculiar to Itself and different in kind from that suffered by the general public. We have failed to discover any material injury in thie case. "It appearing that the annoyance to the defendant caused by the occasional delay to its traffic by reason of the derailment of plaintiff's trams arises not from the laying and construction of tha tramway rails upon the streets in question, but rather from the antiquated and unskilled construction or use of the tramway, defendant's adequate remedy is merely to stop the unskillful use thereof by permitting the construction of a modern, up-to-date crossing, such as is preferred by plaintiff, and not the unreasonable remedy of the removal of the structure itself, thereby entailing an unjust and inequitable burden to be cast upon plaintiff in the handling of Its product and thus necessarily greatly Increasing the cost of production thereof as well as causing plaintiff to expend large sums In the alteration of practically Its entire plant, and all this without materially bettering; conditions at the crossing in so far as the- obstruction thereof is concerned. In view of the admitted fact that plaintiff las an absolute right to use this crossing at grade in hauling Its materials over the same in any kind of vehicle for the passage of which the street is adaptHd.

"Thw tramway rails not interfering with or lrrjurlng defendant's tracks or rails, nor mjuring its property or delaying its trains, defendant cannot move them, and as tie land on both sides of Railroad streedt at the plave in question Is owned by tli plaintiff and it is absolutely necessary for the plaintiff to have a crossing df the railroad for the operation of Its works, plaintiff is unquestionably entitled to maintain and operate this tramway In a reasonable manner. The bill of complaint must bo sustained and the relief prayed for granted at defendant's coats." SUPERIOR COURT OPENS. Tjnnar 1. 1st of Iocal Cnsea for A run meat for First Week.

An ordinance was recently passed by councils increasing the salaries of the officer and providing that the Increases should date from Febrrary 1. The controller. It was learned this morning, would only allow the ircreased salaries from the time that has passed since the ordinance wsi signed, by the mayor. His position, the ordinance officers say, is that th ordinance, to make the increases effective from February 1. should have received the votes of two-thlrda the members of councils.
