A petition was filed In the circuit court here yesterday by 14 prominent residents and taxpayers against the mayor and city council and the board of street commissioners asking for an Injunction to restrain the city officials from erecting and operating a new municipal light plant and issuing in bonds for the same and from operating the plant for other than municipal purposes without first obtaining authority from the Fubllo Service Commission.

After being In the grip of the coldest weather known here in several years, the North Branch of the Susquehanna River has frozen over sufficiently to warrant a few of the more venturesome skating, although the ice is rough in spots.
