Contingent expenses are such as are possible or liable but not certain tn dictionary). II the $10,000 is treated as a part of the contingent expenses provided for bv subdi vision A of said section 31 it would make the amount to be raised under said subdivisions A to II inclusive of said section 31 exceed the limit of $175,000, which is prohibited by that section. The respondents are therefore forced to insist if at all that the consideration named in said deeds and the amount of the contract for the erection of said crematory are liabilities of said city within the meaning of Sub-division 1 of said section 31. Purpose of Charter. "If the Common Council can mike the amount to be paid under any agreement that it may authorte; a liability against the city so that it can be placed Sn the subdivision I of said section, it necessarily follows that the provisions of the charter requiring that all questions as to extraordinary and special expenditures be submitted to the qualified voters of the city and also the limitation, on the amount to be raised for current expenses are wholly useless as prDtective measures.

The purpose of the limitation of the power of the Common Council would by such construction be subverted and overcome by a part of the very section in which the I limitation is stated." "Such a construction wculd leave the Common Council entirely unrestricted in their authority to expend money for any city purpose. The liabilities of the city mentioned in subdivisions I of said section 31 are fixed and 'adjudged liabilities, and claims for current and extraordinary expendi-! tures created if at all only by contract the Common Council or of some city officer. It is only liabilities by statue by judgment or of a class and solemnity of bonded indebtedness that can be intended by said subdivision of said section. "In carrj-ing out the piaii purpose and intention of the charter we must hold that there is no in the Common Council to expend more or enter made. The E.

Ii. Leaf Company, it is understood, has purchased part of the mills from the owners and intends to operate it permanently. The deal ha been on for some time, but only recently been consumated. All of the mills will not he used. There is a possibility that they will be later, however.

No local capitalists are interested in I the move so far as can Be ascertained and only meagre details of the plan3 of the company can be learned today. A number of old rolling mill men have been hired to go to work once and things are looking up onco more for the ironworkers of Elmira who have had to turn grocery clerk and gate The E. 13. Loaf Company of Philadelphia, will open the old Elmira Rolling Mills near Fifth Street as soon a3 the property can be put in shape, and will commence the manufacture of steel for structural and building purposes. There will be about 150 men employed from the start.

These are being hired now. A representative of the company is in Elmira and hiring all the rolling mill hands lie can get, but it will be necessary to bring many to the city when work is started. The mills have not been in use for a number of years and it will require some time to get them in shape for operation. A gang of men has been hired to go to work Monday morning to clean up the mills and install what machinery will be necessary to start work. Hoy Brothers will put the furnaces and boilers in good condition and nothing will be left undone to make it possible for work to be commenced at the earliest.

William Honschild Has Invented Labor-saving Devices Which May be Aianufactured in This City if Present Efforts are Successful. The Chamber of Commerce is interested in the patents held by William Honschied of Benjamin Street, an old-time machinist and for thirty years in the employ of the Northern Central Railroad Company, 'now pensioned. Mr. Honschied is the holder of three patents on machine tools and mechanical appliances which offer great chances for speculation and he has put his business in the hands of the chamber which body is making an effort to establish an industry here for the purpose of marketing and manufacturing the articles. The things which Mr.

Honschied controls are a patent chuck for holding locomotive driving rod brasses during the planing process, a ratchet catch for a locomotive reversing lever nnd one for a locomotive railroad throttle. Each of the articles has been tried by railroad companies and found to great improvements over anything which they now use. They were conceived by the patentee during his long service in railroad shoos and are practical devices giving a greater "degree of speed and safety. Saver of Time. The patent chuck is an arrangement which any machinist who has ever planed driving rod brasses would recognize as a great improvement over any device now in use.

It is a saver of time and by the locking of the brass insures true a'nd accurate work at greater speed than the present system. Mr. Honschied has installed one in the Lackawanna shops in Buffalo and has a letter from Fred Wells, general foreman, highly the device and saying that it. i a time-and money-savor worthy the attention of every foreman and ma-ster mechanic. The levers which" are controlled by the Elmiran arc for locomotive and give a greater degree ofsafety and do away with a lot of lost motion.

The lever is made solid and the simple arrangement, easily gotten at though it is on the inside and out of sight and has been installed on two engines, one on the Ichigh Valley and one on the Northern Central with much satisfaction.

No-Secrets To Hide FORGET THAT WE IIU fill Win We will Religious Services CHARTER FORBIDS Justice Chase Only Discussed One Point in His Opinion as Other Questions Involved, He Said, Might Not Arise in Same Way Again. A copy of the opinion handed down by the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the garbage plant matter was received today by City Attorney Thurston.

After reciting the known facts regarding the power of the city to raise money and the disposition that must be made of the funds collected by taxation the opinion reviews the actions of the mayor and Common Council in the matter. First Proceedings. The opinion relates that at tire meet ing of the council held February 1, 1905, Mayor Coleman presented his estimate of the money that would be needed for the expenses of the city and the conduct of the city departments. Nothing was said in the estimates about the garbage plant. At the same meeting, however, a resolution was passed authorizing the mayor to enter into a contract with the Clinton Foundry Machine Company for the construction of a garbage plant in this city at a cost of J18.2T7.

At a meeting of the council held February 6 the mayor's estimates were considered, corrected and altered end an item of $10,000 to apply on the contract authorized by the council was added. The opinion tells of the purchase of a lot on Baldwin Street at a cost of which was afterwards decided to be unsatisfactory for the plant, and the later purchase of a lot on Tuttle Avenue, all of which is substantially outside the city limits, at the same price. Neither lot has been paid for. The Plaintiff's Claim. These claims were made by A.

C. J. P. Eustace for the plaintiff: First That the placing in the budget or tax levy of the sum of $10,000 to apply or. said contract for the erection cf a garbage plant increased said budget or tax levy beyond the amount authorized by the charte- of said city to be raised by taxation.

Second That the purchase or attempted purchase of lands for a site lor said garbage plant was illegal, because no appropriation had been made for the payment thereof. Third That the Common Council cf said city had no power to delegate to a committee of its body the authority to select and purchase a site for said garbage plant. Fourth That the Common Council had no power to purchase lands out-tide th city of Elmira for a site for faid garbage plant without express legislative authority and that by the Seeds of said lands to the city said city took no title. Five That the purchase of lands for a site and the erection of a garbage riant thereon involve an extraordinary expenditure which could only be made after a submission of the question whether such expenditure should or fhould not be made to the taxpayers of said city at a special election as provided by section 71 of the charter. Opinion In FulL The opinion, ritten by Justice Chase, after reciting these facts, says: ''The evident purpose and intention cf eharter of the city of Elmira is to restrict expenditures by the Common council tor the oruinary expenses of the tjr to 175.000 for the current year.

Such restriction upon 4he expenditures i exclusive and principle fallen due within the current year on bonds issued by the city and of all other liabilities of the city for which other provision is not aiadc (subdivision 1, Sec. 31 of the charter) an amount not exceeding $25,000 for paving (Sec. 14S of the charter as amend-d by chapter 371 of the laws of 1805) an amount necessary for the maintenance of the public schools (Sec. 223 of the charter) and an amount for library purposes. The Common Council is limited in its penditnres to the several amounts lixeil ad determined by it to he raised for the current year and to expenditures for the purposes of its estimate specified except as prescribed in section 71 of the barter (See So.

51 of the charter) and also except that certain transfers of funds are authorized from the general fund of the city for specified purjo-e ot affecting the questions now eonsid-rpi (Sec. 173, 181 of the charter). Extraordinary Expenditures. "The expenditure of money for any fxtraordinary or special purpose which in the opinion of the Common Council eannot be paid from the sum authorized bj the charter to be raised after appropriating the same and defraying the oidi-Ery expenses, or raising the sum over nd above the said $175,000 for the ordi-Ery current and contingent expenses any year is wholly dependent upon a farorable vote of the qualified voters of th6 city.

Chemung County Medical Association is the Complainant and Will Press the Charges Which Comprise a Misdemeanor. "Dr." Orin C. Klock, proprietor of the New York Institute of osteopathy and Electropathy in the Metzger Block, corner of Third and Main Streets, was placed under arrest at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon upon a charge of violating secition 153 of the laws of the health department of New York State in us ing the term "doctor" without a li cense or in accordance with the law. "Dr." Klock, it is alleged, has no right to proclaim or advertise himself as a physician, and the violation is termed a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of not more than $200 or not less than six months in jail.

The Chemung County Medical Association is the complaint against Klock, but the evidence in the case upon which the warrant was issued was procured by Detective Charles Gradwell, who has been working on the case for the past two weeks. Hase Been Here a Year. Dr. Klock has been operating In this city for about a year. He opened his "institute" on thes econd floor front of the Metzger Block and advertised extensively in all the magazines and peri odicals.

By his osteopahhic methods he proposed to conquer disease not In the scope of the ordinary physician and it is claimed that many persons from out of the city came to Elmira and paid him large sums for "treatment." Over a month ago a dresmaker who resides in New Hampshire reed of the cures of "Dr" Klock in a magazine and came to this city for treatment. She says that she has been suferint- from an ailment of the eyes, and that she hoped at least to find sorn? relief. She called upon "Dr." Klock at his institute and he is said to hive given her various rubs and electriaal currents' for which she left $75. She says he failed to help her and a few weeks ago she-went to the recorder with her story. Very Clever Sign.

Detective Gradwell said this afternoon that "Dr" Klock has a large jign on one of his. windows which from the street looks like Dr. O. C. Klock.

On a close inspection, the reader can see that a little tail has been added to the in white paint making it into a and that tha letters "OF" have been added in very small type after the making the "Dr" read "Prof." "Dr." Klock was arraigned late this afternoon and was represented by Attorney Seymour Lowman, wh 3 interposed a plea of not It is said the ease will be pushed by the local physicians.

Action Premature.

The building of a garbage crematory was an extraordinary and special purpose which requires a vote of the qualified voters of the city of Elmira and a favorable vote in the preliminary step dn relation thereto, and any contract relating to the erection of such garbage crematory without the money to pay therefor in advance of such favorable vote by the qualified voters was permature and unauthorized and cannot be enforced unless ratified after a vote in favor of such expenditure has been taken. If we are correct in the views expressed it is unnecessary and unwise to discuss the other questions presented on this appeal as they may not arise in the same way again. "The order should be reversed with $10 costs and disbursements and the parties to the action assenting thereto without prejudice to the right of the city to review this decision or hereafter to contend that said contracts are in all respects legal. The preliminary injunction as modified is further modified so as to enjoy only the making of payments under said contracts or either of tihem or the doing of any act in further performance thereof." ness men refuse to let loose of amounts which would bo necessary and the officials of the company are about discouraged with their chances here, though Elmira is their choice over Syracuse. The Saline city waits for the concern with outstretched arms whiJa Elmlrans who could bring the company to the city, give employment to 100 people, bring a dozen officials at high salaries to the city and place witnln the limits of the Queen City an concern, which would be a perpetual advertisement, sit back calmly and let it slide away.

The Force of Life Company will probably locate in Syracuse because -of this lukewarmness. There is just one more chance. Elmirans who are interested are working hard today to bring about results satisfactory to the city and on Monday the result will be known. Mayor Coleman is one of the most- enthusiastic in Elmira over it. He made an inspection of the company in New York City at the offices, 2255 Broadway, and reports that too much cannot be said of the company's prospects and of the good they would do Elmira as an industry and in an advertising way.

The verdict will be known Monday, but tha company is probably lost to Elmira now. would remit later. The detective went to the jail to get the boy and found that all three had mustered up enough cash to buy their freedom. The recorder said this morning that he suspected that he would hear of the fines being paid, and that Tie fixed them with the idea of putting a little money in the city treasury.

On the same day that it is announced that Elmira will soon see the old Rolling Mills reopened and doing business once more, it is stated by President Arthur II. Williams of New York City, head of the Force of Life Chemical Company, that there are" grave doubts that his company ill locate in this city. For several weeks past the officials of the company have been looking toward Elmira as a possible location for their main offices in which 100 persons are employed. The concern is a proprietary medicine business with annual receipts, it is claimed by Mr. Williams, of $180,000: Elmira has had and may have yet, if certain capitalists will let loose of a little cash, a chance to have the company locate here.

Ie is stated that the company has prospects equal to those which the Kilmer Company of Binghamton has and offers as much to the city as any similar concern.
