If thete was any pussibility ot completing tho work, the Council should try to do It. He understood the contractors would neeept certificatea at 6 per cent, ond would plf\lgu themsclyes agalnst put- ting the paper on the arket, o would vote for the substitute,and hoped the city would take care of the work fn some way, By request the Clerk read “tho ‘prnpmm(m of the contraciors, which was in snbistance as fol- lowa: 1f the ity will pay In full for the work wetunlly completed, we will consent to a sus- penslon of the work for one year, without clalin 1or dumnges, hoth parties fetalnlng all other rlghts under the contract, Ald, McCrea sald that proposition was nn eminently fale one. I the Council could find any means whereby the contractors could be beitertaken caro of than thig, the Finance Com- mittee would be plad to hear It~ As one of the Committee he thought they could accede to no hetter Bropusm«n. ‘Ald, Bweenoy sald that the general iden wos that it would have been better Lo hnve opened a cannl In the fiest instanee, That was notdone, however, fle must say that Fitzsimons & Connell had gone through with thelr work uobly.

Al Wulido remarked that it was of vast fm. portance to the contractors that the mat should he scttled nt once, All, Cullerton was of opinfon that the terms of the contract eould be earrled ont by nppro- rinting a portlon of the City Indehtedness B‘luul. There ov L{:lu. 10 b $150,000 to the crodit of the fund, and it was legititmate to use It for such {mprovements when the vity was in its resent condition, He believed that the popu- Pur losn would not be s suvcess If the paper was nut negotiable. Ald. McCren said I they opened the door in this ini they would huve to open It In others, Every mun 1o whom the cty vwed money under a contracts would be as much en- tithd to pay in the manner proposed os the Fullerton avenue conduit inen, Ald. Cullerton—The Blue Island or Milwau- kee nyenue vinduets cut no figure In this matter. Ald, McCrea—But if wo glvecertificates toone we must to all.
