Oil Of find in this LIVE NEWS OF WEST SCRANTON Hoard of Trade Held an Interesting Meeting In the Dank IMPROVEMENTS TALKED ABOUT It Was tho Opinion oT the Members That a Ulg Ilond Isuo Will Be Necessary IfThls Pnrt of tho City Ii Soon to Havo Improvement! That Are Badly In th Welsh C. M. Church. The members of tho West Side board of trade met In regular monthly session last evening In their rooms In the West Side Bank building.

It was a well attended and decidedly Interesting meeting In many senses. President A. B. Holmes presided. There was no special business to transact, and the evening was devoteu mainly to the discussion of particular Improvements which It wns thought should bo Inaugurated on this side during the coming year.

The need of a city market and the excellent adaptability of such at the old stove works plant on Doekaah place was discussed. Tho Nineteenth sewer district nnd tho viaduct all came In for a share of the discussion. The board agreed that tho Issuing of bonds to cover the many needed Improvements of all sorts In tho city would settle the vexing question of how to get these things with no funds in sight. Anent the market idea a preliminary move was made by the board. Upon a motion by William Farrell, a committee of three was appointed to draft a resolution which could be submitted to councils to the end that further steps be taken relative to the establishing of a city market.

The committee Is William Farrell, II. Campbell and John Fern. Secretary Oliver brought up the matter of tunnelling on Luzerne street, nt the Intersection of Main avenue, In the contemplated Nineteenth sewer distract, nnd spoke of the apparent misunderstanding of property owners as to the cost and manner tho work could be done. City Engineer Phillips was requested throw a little light upon the subject. He did so in a.

satisfactory manner. To properly grade the sewer along Luzerne street from Twentieth street to the river would require a tunnel at the intersection of South Main avenue nnd Luzerne street. To sewer In tho other directions, viz: west from Main to Keyser Valley creek would be feasible, but tho water flow would not be sufficient In the creet at all times to carry the sewerage away. Therefore the sewer would have to be carried to Taylor, along the creek route. The tunnel Idea would be cheaper, safer and more certain In the long run.

It would begin near Thirteenth street and run to Tenth. At the deepest part it would be 45 feet below the street level. However, no property owner would need to dig for the connection to that depth along the tunnel's length. as a subsideary sower would bo placed about the tunnel with shaft connections for laterals. Thus it would be just the same to the property owners ns if no tunnel existed so far as their connecting wus concerned.

It was utterly useless to contemplate any improvement, especially a sewer, as no funds are obtainable and there would be none for some time unless a bond measure was taken up. Then all the many needed Improvements, such as sewers, fire houses, viaduct, opening of streets, parks, market, could be Immediately taken care of and a direct benefit gained. II. D. Jones, of tho streets and bridges committee, reported In reference to the laving of sidewalks at the Brown property on Robinson street and stated that it would be finished as soon as the weather permitted.

He also reported several minor actions. The report of the condition of Luzerne street, near Meridian street, by T. Fellows Mason, wns referred to the streets and bridges committee. The board gave Its endorsement to the Loud postal bill (House bill No. 5,359) now pending In the house of representatives to alter the second class postal laws.

They officially recognized the contemplated new atlas of the city of Scranton and the borough of Dunmore, which Graves and Stelnberger, of Boston, are yetting out. This action was taken In response to a communication received from H. England, tho firm's representative here. COMPANY INSPECTED.
