M. Eugepe annln mid he be- lieveq that the of them, for o(H ng. He ex- are pot nfi! fle nfonr that all new street preand work should be let out to eentract and that the city's men should be kept at work deing the repair work. Split up- our - street force into small crews ‘and a great deal more effective work will be accomplshed than at present. W. B. Knight agreed with Mr, Lin- coln in the main and was of the opin- fon that it was net feasible to try and oil any more sfreets in their present condition. Frank Larrabee sald the streets at present are in a deplorable condition, the worst in years. Henja- min Joues sald the streets are in no worse shape than they have been in past years. If half of the streets are oiled the other half should also be ofled. Willlam Vanderman advised against any further ofl for the pres- ent year. Mr. Jones then remarked that the city ought to do sumething for the Pleasant street section as it had not spent $500 on that thorough- fare in the past 20 years, although the council repeatedly voted to do things but never did them. Ex-Alderman A. L. Gelinas wanted to kiow how much hag already beem spent out of the $12,000 appropriated for streets. He was informed that up to the present time $8,308.45 had been expended so far for the fiscal year. He belleved that that amount, with what had been expended for oil in addition, was enough to spend on the streets this year. He advised get- ting an early start next year. Alder- man J. A. Martin spoke in faver of oiling the remaining streets and said it could be done, as the streets could be put into proper condition if the work was done in a husinesslike man- ner and not as it was being done at present. The question was called for and the motion carried and therefore the ques- tion of more oiling for the present year sidetracked effectively. Corporation Counsel King then of- fered the resolution that the city ap- propriate and authorize the common council to appropriate the sum of five thousand doilars for the purpose of defraying expenses growing out of and connected with ' the smallpox epl- | demic. Mr. Hayden wanted to know if the city had made any contract with Dr. W. P. 8. Keating as to his salary or that of the nurse. He was informed that none had been made, as at the time it was problematical as too how long their services would be required. He then asked how much had already been expended and was informed that the sum was $5,536.54. He intimated that it was not good business to do business as the city was doing, as any old bill could be presented and it would have to be paid. After a little more discussion the resolution was adopted. The question of streets was then re- opened. Ex-Alderman Jay M. Shep- ard wanted to know what the West Main street repair job cost the city. He was informed that the data would in all probability be ready at the next meeting ofthe board of aldermen. Al- derman D. P. Ahern spoke in high terms of the work done on West Main street and said that the city had done a fine job and that the work was done as cheaply as It could have been done anywhere, He sald that it was money well expended and that tae city had got a fine piece of road. Mayor Dunn fired a few parting shots at Ex-Alderman Shepard and then told of his recent trip to New Haven and the meeting fn the inter- ests of good roads and the increasing cost to keep roads in repailr now be- cause of increased traffic as against a fow years back oceasioned by the ad- vent of the autpmobile and the heav- fer tonnage trucks that tore roads to bits much more quickly than any other kind of vehicle, Made Up With ‘His Wi Carl J. Wingertsman, who was ar- rested on complaint of his wife Thurs- day and later released on bonds, was in police court Friday morning and pleaded guilty to the charge of assault placed against him. A flne of $1 and costs was imposed and the costs were remitted. The fine wag paid by his wife. She did not care to testify against her husband in court, but told the court that they had had a little trouble anq one word led to another until he had grabbed her by the throat and she thought that he was going to choke her. Thursday evening the | couple came to an understanding and the man had expressed his sorrow for his act. Kostanty Pletovewers and Powel Pe- trosky were also before the court to answer to the charges of be- ing drunk and, fighting. The pair were arrested Thursday evening by Lieutenant Daniel Killourey and Offi- | cer John J. Manley when the board- ing boss in the Stone row, where the feilows lived, entered a complaint that a row was in progress at his house and that no ome in the neighborhood could get to sleep because of the racket, Both being minors, Judge Shea appointed Probation Officer W. C. Lyman guardian ad litem. He en- tered u plea of guilty for the first| named and not gullty for the last. Evi- | dence Introduced -showed that the boarding house keeper had brought beer to the house and that after the same was disposed of, the fellows be- ing drunk, a fight was started. Each one was fined 35 and costs on the as- | sault count and judgment was sus- pended on the charge of intoxication. The fine and costs amounted to $13.20 each Instance. PLATING COMPANY FORMED.
