Councilman O. F. Curtis attempted 1o set another common council inves- tigation on foot last night at . the September meeting When he duced a resolution asking for a probe by a special committee of an alleged public document, part of which had been crossed off. He claims that the marking was done by Mayor George A. Quigley but his efforts went for i naught as he was beaten on a yea and nay vote, 19 to 6. At the August meeting of the com- mon council, Councilman Curtis first called the atention of the members to the alleged mutilation of document, claiming that Mayor Quigley had with his own hand crossed off a section after it had passed the council. The paper in question was a motion made by Councilman Deolan and vetoed by the mayor. This veto, with a second veto, was referred to a special com- mittee of three, consisting of Alder- man Anderson and Councilman Teich and Conlon. The committee report- ed last night, upholding the mayor’s ruling, which was the point on which one of the vetoes had bcen made. Tax Collector Charles Elliott to ac- cept payment of taxes hereafter, even though warrants had been issued for the ‘arrest” of the delinquents. This will probably have a material effect on the number of actual prosecutions as once shown that the collector means business those who have been lax in their payments will be apt to pay right up and avoid having to pay the added tax of $5.82 costs. Personal Tax ;Cases. . .Those summoned to appear in court this morning for failure to pay their tax were: Sam Davis, 33 Myrtle street; Mike Charnowski of 189 Hartford avenue; Bernard Guberneck, 122 Wil- low street; Edward Heim, 125 Wil- low street; Alfredo Giarbottistomio, 108 Tremont street; Antonio Branco, 81 Sexton street: Nicolo Cerfaritti, 251 ‘Washington streét; Ignatz Gwoyaka, Councilman Curtis expressed the opinion that the committee had not gone far enough and that'it should have investigated the crossing off of a section of Councilman Dolan’s mo- tion. A motion was made to accept the report af the committee and Councilman Curtis offered the follow- ing amendment: Resolved: That the report of the committee on the mayor's veto of Resolution No. 49 of the July 16th meeting and the changing of the language of said resolution by ecross- ing off parts of it be and is referred back to said committee and they are hereby instructed to give at Ileast forty-eight hours’ notice of and to give a hearing to all parties concerned or connected with such resolution or con- troversy, which shall be open to the 251 High street; Nicol6 Gagliardo, 311 Church street; Daniel M.

Tax ‘Collector Elliott told the judge that it i§ not infrequent that after the warrant has been served to have the delinquent come to his office and try to pay the '$2. “I would advise that hereafter when.they come to your office to pay the $2 you accept it. It means no' hardship to the police who have served the warrant and it does mean a hardship to the individ- ual who has to lose a half day’s pay -in ‘having to appear in court,” advised Judge Meskill. ‘ . One Other Case. The ornly other case in court today was that of Newton Duncan, of Chi- cago, an employe of the National Cash Register company, He was arrested at the Park street railroad crossing last night by Officer Rival for breach of peace. Duncan told the court that he had treated many ac- quaintances but when they tried to steal his traveling bag from him he became peeved.

After considerable debate, Cauncil- man -Curtis’ amendment was defeated and- the report of the committee was accepted. The report lows: To His. Honor, Common Council New Britain: Your committee appointed to in- vestigate the mayor’s vetoes present- ed at the August meeting of the com- mon council together with the reso- lution presented by Councilman Cur- tis, beg leave to submit the follow- ing report: The first matter taken up by vour committee, was the veto of his honar the mayor regarding itemqp No. 47 of the minutes of the meeting of the common council of July 21st, 1915. We find that the phraseology the resolution is ambiguous, and the opinion of the committee the veto should be sustained. The next matter taken up was the resolution of Councilman Curtis con- cerning the veto by his honor the mayor of the action taken by the common council in resinding the vote taken June 16th, 1915, relating to item No. 73, said vote was taken by your honorable body July 21st, 1915. Article 16 of the rules of the com- mon council states that questions arising on parliamentary ruling not covered by these rules shall be de- cided by the presiding officer in ac- cordance with ‘‘Cushings Manuel.” Your committee find that the action taken by your honorable body in' res- cinding a vote to indefinitely post- pone was not according to “Cushings Manuel” of parliamentary law. Sec. 2 Art. 67. Cushings Manuel on indefinite postponement reads as fol- lows: In -order to suppress a question altogether, without coming to a di- rect vote upon it, in such a manner that it cannot be renewed, the proper motion is for indefinite postponement, that is, a postponement or adjourn- ment of the question without fixing any day for resuming it. The effect of this motion, if de- cided in the affirmative, is to quash the proposition entirely; as an in- definite adjournment is equivalent to a dissolution or the continuance of a suit without day, is a discontinu- ance of it. A negative decision has no effect whatever. (This motion cannot be amended. It cannot be ‘moved while the motions to commit or for the previpus ques- tion dre pending. As its effect is to quash the proposition entirely, it | necessarily brings up the whole sub- ject far discussionm, in order that its friend may allege reasons for com- ing to a direct vote upon it, for if the motion to indefinitely postpane prevails the measure proposed can- not be renewed during the session.— Ed.) Your committee therefore respect- fully recommend that the veto be sustained, Paonessa Joins Curtls, As soon as Clty Clerk Thompson had finished reading the report, Al- derman Anderson, the chairman of the committce, made a motion that the report be accepted. Councilman Paonessa objected. He sald Councllman Landers had made the meotion at the last meeting . for appointing the committee - of - three and as the councilman was not pres- the Mayor, and the of the City of of was. -as- fol-’] in | BASKETS_ Bushel, Hardware for the Fall.

Mayor Quigley replied that it not the fault of the council that Landers was not in attendaace. Councilman Paonessa made a mo- tion to tablc the report but the mo- tion was beaten by a substantial vote. Councilman' Curtis then offered his resolutirn. IHe stated that the com- mittee had not made a complete in- vestigation as he understood it should have done. Maver Quigley ruled the Curtis resolution, out of order. “Had Councilman Curtis the mayor with mutilating document that would have ferred to this committtee,” mayor. “The decument His Honor crossed oul,” was the expression used a mom- ent later by Councilman Curtis in his reply. “The city clerk says he = did crossing,” answered the mayor. “The city clerk tells me His Honor did it,” persisted Councilman Curtis. ‘I have no desire for a controversy but I understanl the committee of three met behind locked doors and the press.-was not admitted. I ask as a . matter of fairness and fair play, for myself as well as the council, that this matter be opened up and all parties be given a hearing. If the mayor is right it will not affect his standing or mine. There's always two sides fo a guesticn.” 2 & Councilman’' Teich repliéd- that the cermmittee dia not nieet behind closed doors and that was Mr. charged a public been re- said the the meeting. Chambcerlain Not Satisfied. Councilman Chamberlain took ' a hand in the discussion by saying the committee had not gone back far encugh. He claimed it should have gone back to the meeting when the council decided to reconsider and in- definitely postpone its decision to ap- point the aav of public works and water commission the houe of contention, as well as to diseuss the council's action to rescind that reconsideration. “To rescind a vote to indefinitely postpone is like sentencing a man to be hanged and next day commuting | ‘nis sentence to life said Mayor Quigley. “YWhy do you rule Councilman Cur- tis’ amendment out of order?” in- quired Councilinan Chamberlain, “Because it is not germaine to the subject, replicd Mayor Quigley. Councilman Curtis called for a yea and nay vote on the acceptance of the report and it resulted as follows: Yea-—Anderson, Jester, Parker, McCabe, May, Steiner, Dolan, Pohl- man Teich Eichstaedt Spencer, Iver- scn, Mueller, Ohman, Stadler, Ohlson, Arata, Owsiak, Conlon—19.

The committee appointed to con- sider a change in name of Walnut Hill park to Erwin park reported in favor of perpetuating the memory of C. B. Erwia by changing the name of The New Britain Institute to the Erwin library. It recommended that a committee be appointed to confer on this point with the direc- tors of the Institute. Councilman Curtis said the Insti- tute is chartered and the city has nothing to do with it. It would be necessary for the directors of the Institute to go to the legislature for a change in name. Mr. Curtis be- lieved that a cor:mittce should be appointed to consider in a general way an Erwin memeroial. Council- man Teich callel his attention to the fact that this was taken care of in the report. On amendment of Mr. Curtis the cominittee to be appoint- ed by the mayor will consist of fif- teen members. The committes to which was re- imprisonment,” mmmfihn%mm lows.

Civil Service Committee, A motion was made to take the Te- port of the civil service committes from the table but it was discovered that the matter had already been acted on. On’ motion of Councilman Curtis it was voted to have a committee of five appointed to formulate a plan for establishing a civil service com- mittee Electric Advertising Signs. The board of public works and building inspecter were instructed to consider the advisability of allowing electric signs on public streets. ; ‘ Running Locomotives.

They shall conform to the rules and régula- | tions of said police department, Their salaries shall be fixed by the com- mon council.” Councilman Curtis asked whether this would create any change in the present plan. He understood that one of the palrol-zmbulance drivers now acted as janitor and he wanted to know whether there would be an add- ed experse under the new plan. On his motion the amendment to the ordinance was laid on the table uns til the next meeting. At a special meeting previous to the ragular meeting. A, F.
