THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: WEDNESDAY. JULY 31 1878, THE CITY-HALL. A Ronewal of the Bedford«Le- mont War. Those Allegations that the Stone Is Not Thick Enough. The Extras Under {he Drick Contract-.Ald, Taley on {he Powers of (ke Connell, A certain amount of growling is apparently fnseparable from the erection of any public Iutlding in Chivago. Sometlmes, as In the case of the new Custom-House and the new County Bullding erecting on the Court-House Bquare, it 1 more or lcss Justiflable. At other ties It {a anything but called for. An Instance in pofot appears to be the growl set up sgafnst the mdner in which the new City-Hall (s belng balit. The trouble, of course, lies back of the alleged faults in the construction of the building, aud fs no doubt lnsplred by tho fricnds, In public and private lfe, of Ed Walker, who hasn’t forgotten how Bedford triumphied over Lemont. Ald. tyau gave tho firt public growl Monday night 1n the Councily when he spoka of the stone used in the bulld- {nz 88 “vencering,! and charged that there was o stenl sumewhere. ‘Uliers wos another sort of growl yesterday,—one to the effect that the brick cuntractor, Joln Angus, was preparlog & Dill for exteas ou the ground of having Leen compolled to Jay moro bricks than he bargained for, the reason for this being that the stone in some {nstances wasn's of the proper thickuess and that nrore brivk were therefore Nqulrud todlil upa given apace. An afternoon paper yesterday volced the complaints of the discon- tents fu a half-column grow! that was doabtless a tull and folr statement of tho growlers' side of the case. THE OROWL. CONDENSED, wns to theeflect that such small stones were beloiz ured tn the constructlon of the water- courses that they would not be strong enoug to pupport the great welght of the building, it was stated the bullding would be 150 fect high, but_that stones of an averawe thickness of but ten [nches were belni wsed fo the lower courses, which must sustain the vast welght ot the superiuciinbent mass, Theae courses, it was furthier sold, were hucked with brick, Lut were weak ns compared with the deep stone courses fn the county's portion. The blame for all this wns nut to rest, of course, on the contractors, who were merely following the suecilications, but upon the former Bullaing Committes o1 the Contueil, for not requiring tho use of_broader stones. Another alleention ad- vaneed against the constructionof the work was, that irou ¢lamps hud to bo used to prevent the stones, which were said to be very narrow, fromn falllng out of place when the upper couzsus wers Jald, The last chargoe of all, that ended this carofully-constructed growl, was the oue lu reference to the alleged clalm abaut to b pre- ferred by the brick conteactor for extras, ‘The present Bullding Committee, the Mayor, and the Superintendens of Bulldiogs eecin to have known Just what was coming as curl Mum!af uight. The clalm for extras, at {irst blush, looked o fair that the Mayor yeaterday morning called & meeting of the Cominittee to discuss the matter in the Jght -of “the plans and the specitications, and sce whether the city was really in danger of being stuck for extrasor not.~ The reporter, In the course of human cvents aod the performance cf hls duties, ran RCross ALD, COOK, the Chalrman of the Cowmmlittee, and, ostho chiarges were by this timo a malter of common talk, found bim apparently propared for an in- terviow, “What is there about all this tali of light stone being used, ond & probable bill for extras from the brick contractor] ™ makod the reporter, “Nouthing but talk, as I will show you," said tho Aldcrnan. “And the talk comos trom those who aro opposed to the uso of Bedford stone.! 4 “In the first place, it s charged that the stones In the lower courses aro vurr thin—~too thin to sustain the weight of the building.” “Yes, I know that's what they say. Well, now, the fact {s that that granite’ will support four thnes thoe weight that will be fmposed upon it. You must know that the brick work sustains the welght asmuch as thestone. Now, those stono vourses are fully vqual to those re- uired by tho specifications for the county por- ‘t\lon. 1n fact, the specitications for the two por- tions are preclsely aifke {n this reapect.”’ ¢ And whut sbout the clamps, allezed to be used Lecause the stones are too narrow, and to prevent thelr falling out of place! " 4Oy, pshaw, We naver luy stone In God's world without puttinge clamps in. - Why, you'll 1ind them fn all the buildings here. Our specl- fleations require that they shallbe elamped, and, for that matter, there are clamps in the coun- ty's vortion also, Therc {s preclsely the same smount of stone n the city's ua i the county's portion.

Angus claims that, on account of the thinne ol certaln stones, he hos been obliged to more brick than the specitications catled for.

Ject was gono over by Ald. Cook, Ald. Baliard, Bupt. Cleaveland, snd the May o the same conclusions arrived at s th iven by Ald. Cook to the reporter in the foregoing interview, viz.: that thoclaim was not valld, and tiat, when it was presented, if it ever shouid he, they would mt down upon It with thelr com- Dbined weight. All the other husiness that the Commilttee did was to K‘n upon & lot of biils for 1.600 Joads of earth used to flil around the stons walls. The amount of theso was $207, nnd, =s the bills were correct, they were ordered ids pe TFOWER TO MAKE TIIN CONTRACT. The queation of the power of the city to make contracts for any work beyond the sinount of tho apprupriation was raised tu the Counel Monday evening, and yesterday a reportercalle on Ald. Tuley, unc of tue members of that buly, to et his opinion on the pulnt. Mr, Tuley was of the irn oploion that the city could only make contracts when an appro- oriation hnd sctusily been made, and then only to the nmoont of that appropristion. The law provided that no contract slionld be ontered Into unless an appropriation should first have been made concerniug the ox- pense. Judge Drummond had hehl in the Gas- Company case that oue Council could not make y contruct that would biod future Councils, and could only contract for the year in which tho appropriation was made. It was then con- tended that it was sulllclent, if s appropriation ‘was made cuvering part of tlm work, to make a cuutract valld which ran for soveral years, but the Judgo Iguored the polnt. In reply to & question whether the $000,000 of the Uaual Redemption Fund which had been sct apart for tho construction of a Court-House cuuld not be consldercd a part of tho nppropria- tlon, Mr. Tuley sald he did not think It could, unless it was actually In the Treasurv, ‘The Canal Redemption Fund was about $590,000, Lut onty about $70,000 of it was in the Treasury, the remainder having been used up i9 the Uage detaleation, and other ways. I a tax bad been levled to nake up “that amount, then it might be constdered 1a the Treas- ury, The f{ntent of the law was to'probibit any covtract from being wmade or ooy lability lueurred by suy uity otlicers beyoud the smount actually appropriafed for that pur- tieular oxpenditurs. ‘There was a doubt as to wihiat the word ** concoruing meant, but in bis opinlon 1t was equivalent to *covering.” The beat way for Chicago to do was Lo Imitate the Federal Government, which only madu posi- tlvo coutracts for the amount of the approprin- tfon, and provided that if Congress should think prover to make a further aporopriation, then certain prives should be Y“M for the remalning work. Perbaps that would be miore exvensive, because contractors would not care to tike the risks of zumnfi the =~ wholo contrast sud give so ow bids, but that was the only alteruative. There wust be some limit to muuicipal expenses and vower to Incur dobts, and the luw must bo obeyed, It wses u guestion of charter power, and it had been nlmu?y decfded that une Coun- clf could not biud a future ohe in such a case. HAISED DEFORE. This polnt, a8 Lo the inability of the Bullding Committes to Jet the contracts for the ontire work, since uo appropriation had been mado by the Councll, was ralsed jn tho bill tHled lnst Aptil by 'I'homas Brassli, to_eujoin the Council from letting the contract to Tomiinson & Reed. ‘The wmonin point, of course, was that the ety wos * bound to wuse the somo kind of stono @8 the county, but this one was also put into the bill and was argued bafore the Court, Judge Williams, however, In his ducision paid no attention to ity probably not considering it of sufficient {me portancs (o need sn wnswer. TIIE LANUUAGE OF JUDGE DRUMMOND on tbfs gencral subject, as used by him {n hls decision ln the casc of the Gas Company vs, The Clty, was as follows: 1o 1808 the charter of the city contalned o pro- wisiun that no contract should be wade by the city involving nn{ expe uniess on appropristion ‘was previously made concerning such ex| )unla'; And the Comptroller was roqulred fn May of e year to submit an estimato of thy amount necessa- Ty to doftay the oxpensce of the city for the cuze rent fivcal yoar, “Thiy provision of the chartor does not scom to have beon construed as a probilbition to tho exocu- tion of contracts extending ovor ouu yea, uven whero the mppropriation did not meot fully the oxpense of tho contracts; aud It would be diilicuit to maintain that thls construction is unsound, ‘'he lapguage must obviously be applied to the subject wmatter of the contract, 80 understood by the Legie. lutare, viz, 'To those matters whore the terms of the con tract and tho time of its exocution were practically within the reach of an appropriation once made, ‘Tho construcilon of tunuels or watue-works, of Pllblle bulldifign, Including gas-works, of docven- g summit levels, sud mauy other matters within tne general scope of tho powers of tho city, may Toquire more than & ycar to complele, anil must nocessarily involve more than onv appropriation, Ana yet, {n view of the manifest intention of the Legislntare, it may bo doubted whather tha city wrould by authorized to cxccute any of thess gon- eral powers without an estimato firet made of tho oxponso Lo bo jncurred, THE COURTS.

John Cowdon's Bari- taria Canal project, at the Memphis Theatre. On the stage were Messts, Casev Young, T. W, Brown, M. Merriwether, Calviu . Vance, T, W, Avery, and others, A juap, showing the tupog- raphy of the country through which the caual Is to pass, was placed before the lecturer’s desk. NI CALVIN VANCE was made Chalrmap of the mceeting, und Capt. dohn Miller acted ns Secretary, Mr. Vance suid the purpuse of the mecting was to lLiear from Capt. Jobn Cowdon on the subject of redeeming the alluvial lands and openlug the mouth of the rver, They had, 8 few munths ago, heard an interesting lecture from Capt. Euds on the same subjet. Capt. Cowdon's plan went further, and not only pur- posed deeocnlng the river, but the reclalining of o vast tract of rich alluvial lands. In Wash- inzton Capt. Cowdou had been more honored than fu Memphs. ‘There he bad uppeared bu- fore the Housa Comumittee, and won uver a ma- Jurity of them to his, mode of opening tho muouths of the great river. Mr. Vance then Introduced CAPT, JORN COWDON, who sald he constdered 1@ pening of the Mts- slnsippl River for permanent commerce. the im- provement of its navigation and the reclama. tiub of Juuds mlony its Lunks, as the greotest subject that can engross the thougnts of the peovle of the whole land to-day. - Capt. Cowdon then sald: 1 Lelleve the valiey was once un arm of the seu and the mouth of the river at or near Grand Tower, where uzes ago the water burst throuch und dralned off the country ubove, now inhobited by willlons of puople. 1In the saine way the roeky shores of the Ningara tndicate that the great catara:t was at one oerlod of the world several miles below, ut Lake Outuric, which has required 350,000 years for Its recesslon. Duriug this possible erlod of thne, the washing from the hills, val- eys, and mountaing above Grand lower, with thie sond rolica slonr the river's bottom by the current, holding ulso. millivus of cuble feet of tmud In_suspenslon, has fitled up the lower val- ey for 1,200 mtles In le‘;gv.h, with on uverage breadth of fifty miles. i 5 lu tols wav this wonderful river has boun grudually rising from the basin ot that cataract awd full of uearly 400 feet, filng up the old sea buttoni, und bullding 1ts banks until a geatle slope, averaging some three inches to the mile, is uttuined ju descending to the wouth ot the river, thus forminw & great lower valley, cm- bruciog an arce of 80,000,000 of acres ol the most productive land n the world, Thus, ns the river increased in length, the banks were lifted up by the dupost, the greater portion beiug dropped neareat the river's margin; con- sequently, we liud the banks from ten to four- teen feet higher on the Immedinte margiy of the river from Cutro 1o New Orleaus than are the lnnds oue mile farther back from the river. Henee the comwon expression, “The Miss sippi River RUNS ON A RIiDOR.' Thisis further evidenced by the well-known foct that each wugmestive gk water bus de. deposited fts strptum, clear and well defived, ot above the otlfer, as bricke in a wall, as may be seou ull plong the river, frum Calro to its wouth, and from low to high-water mark, ‘I'nen examing the Lenks of the river from Calroto New Orleans; aud trow low to bigh water mark, ranglog from 63 feet at Calio, 45 feet 7 inches at Mumphu‘ 46 feot 8 fuclies nt the wmouth of White River, 52 fect 4 inchiea ot Vieks- bury, 50 feet 2lnchies ut Nutehez, 47 feet at the mouth of Red River, i3 fect ot Baton Rouwe, and 17 feet B inchies ut New Orleans, and you will sce stumps stunding whers they grow whea the surface Wi ut Lhat Jevels for cypress trees then as now only throw vul spur-roots near the surtuce. ‘Then_note the fact that the mouthof the river i3 120 miles farther out fu the Gulf, with u rise of waterut New Orleantof 17 foet, und sulll moving vut luto the Guif at the rate of | foot u duy, Within the kst U7 yoars it hiae cx- temied i miles tarther out ut Bouthiwest Pasa, with u bar of 20 feet of wal oceupying the Place where thero was 10 Fuurl azo, Wit ali thicse fucts, and the still woro strik- fngz tliustrations betore our eyes of TIB DONNEICARNE CULVASSR, whero the lluowd of vue-twellth of the discharpe of thy river, with u fall of 20 feet, seeku the Gulf Jevel through Luke Ponchurteain, In golng luss than 6 inites, natead of 160 Lo the river's nouth, and the river's bigh-water ark lowered at New Orleans from d to o feet whero the rise aod fall was 17 foet, and lowered at Natclez (300 iles ubove) from 8 to § fect, where the risu and tull wus 50 tect. “I'ils 18 proven by relerepce to the report of Maj, Benyaurd for 1870, mudo to Gen, Humph- roy2, Cnlel ol Englucers, which shows that the uverugy fall Lelow hlxgx-wuh:r Isari fur the years 1573, 1874, 1575, Jhd 1570 was 4 feet o uches at New Urleans, 8 tvel 3 ochies ot Natctiez, sud U leet 1y lnchus at Vicksbure, whils ut” the mouth of Whits River it wus 3 feet 13 luchies, and st Memohls 3 feot 837 fncnes, und from o ststement from Geu, umphreys the tall at New Orleaus Tor 1877 was 6 feot U tuchus, and for 1575, thus far, {t was 4 fect U inches, whitst at Vicksburg tor 1577 it luckeda 7 feot of lugh-water murk, und for 187 it Jacked IL feet ol hign-water mark, while ut the mouth of White Haver tor ISTE Iv unly lacked 3 feet sud 8 fuches of belug to bighe water mark.
