SOUIRES IS HUNG UP AGAIN. His Eweeping Bill for Last Year Stricken from the Appropriation Ordinance. COLONEL MORRISSEY'S CLAIM REDUCED. Eome Energetic Oratory Engende by These Bills and John N Contract—What Ten Cou men Accomplished, 18 When the council convened last nfizht the early indications were that the adjourned meeting would be of short duration. But all signs fail in dry weather, and in tbe city council, There were thirteen members pres- eut, and for hours they fo ot tho pass- age of the monthly appropriation ordinances. At lnst the oratory came to an end aud the ordinance was pul upon its final passuge. This broughton @ protty fizht, as the were nino members who voted yes and threo nay. It lacked a majority, as Mr. Olsen had disappeaPed without obtaining permis- sion. A call of the house was ordered and it looked like an all night session, The trouble because Frank Mor- risey’s garbuge bill of $52.50 was included in the ordinance, The resolution to lay fnspectors when not employed The vote by which the contract Johnson electrie company’s contract w arose off witbout pay all was adopted with tho proved was upon motion of Mr. Olson recou sidered, a new contract and bond presented and laid over for one week. The old cont t was defective in some particular. The report of the appruisers, showing $75 damages resulting from the proposed grad- fug of South Fifteenth strect from Vinton street to Oak Hill addition No. 2, was adopted. Quarreting Over a Contract. The bond and contract of John Nelson,who is to haul away dead animals, was prescuted and referred to the committee on police, Mr, Spechtobjected to the contract, saying thut Nelson was not the lowest bidder. Mr. Osthoff opposed the contract, saying that Nelson proposed to skin the animals nt the dump und then leave the carcasses on the bauk of the river, Mr. Lowry thought the contract all He said that in the past there had system of robbery carried on: that the own rs had paid for hauling animals away and that afterwards the amount had been charged up to the city. The contrict provides that fees of 225 shall be collected from the owner of each ani- mul and that all cows and horses belonging to the city shall be removed free of charie, pr viding that Nelson is allowed to remove and retain tho hides, Mr. Bruner favored the approval of tho contractand having watters in shape. He said the council had monkeyed too long with its dead animals and garbage contracts. Mr. Specht objected to the contract be- cause it makes no proyisions for the handling of mules, donkeys and ste Mr ught the contract should provide some way by which the city can kecp tab on the vumber of cats and dogs that Nelson hauls awny. right been @ Ordinances on Passage. ‘e following ordinances were read athird time and pussed ;- Providiag for the laying of zas, water mains, and making' sewer con- nections on South I'wenty-second street, from Poppleton avenue to the government corral; levying a tax to pay for the construc- tion of sidewalks: ordering the grading of Burt, from Thirty-cighth to Forticth street; creating o sewer district in Credit Foncier adaition. The ordinance providing for the moval of garbage was read und referred, ordinance provides that the board of health may 1ssuc hauling - permits to such poction who puy #95 luta tho oity trensury, v also provides that the board of health shall diyido the city mto garbage districts. “The appropriation ordinanco brought out a lengthy discussion. Mr. Osthoff moved thut it be placed upon its passage. Mr. Elsasser ns an amendment, moved that the sweeping estimate of O. 1. Squires, amounting 10 ¥,900 be stricken out. Some wember'asked that Chairman Birk- hauser of the board of pubiic works be allowed to talk. Mr. Lowry objected to Birkhauser talking. He said: “If the chairman has a statement to make, it should Le in_writing.” He made this a point of order. The point of order was sustained. M. Moreurity suid that he had a written statcment, but it was a personal document. How the Streets Are Swept. Mr, Lowry said that not one-teuth of the streets are swept according to the schedule, Some strects ave swept twice a week, whilo others are not swept once 4 wonth, Other strects are swept at 7 o'clock in the morning and in many nstances the dirt is piled up and left in the gutters for months at a time. Mr. Lowry denounced the bill as unjust fraudulent and thieving, and said that very fow of the streets are cver swept according to contract. Mr. Osthoff fusisted that the matter was referred to the committec on finance, M. Tuttle had called on Chairmar houser, who stated that he would fu the council with a communication relati street sweeping. Coairman Birkauser said that he wroto such n letter and gave it to Mr. Morearty. Mr. Davis stated that the Squires bill was for sweeping that was done last year. The records of the board don’t show tbat the work was poorly done. It is merely a state ment of the members of the board of public works, If Squires has not lived up to his coutract, knock him out. Mr. Olson thought that if Squires could win 1n the courts, it would be better to allow the bill and save the costs. Mr. Birkhauser said that he abuse, but thougnt ho was doing right when ho voted ngainst the allowance of the bill 1o did not blame the members of the board. he fault was with the city engineer and the inspector who certified to the correctness of the bills for August, September and Octover, 1890, the ones under controversy Mr. Bruner, the orator of tae council, the member of the special committee appointed 10 investigato the Squires bill attached the blame to the inspector. He passed upon the streots that had never scen the broom, Mr. Bruner favorcd allowlng the bills and then be more careful in the future, The wotion to striko the'bills from tho ordinance prevailed and all papors ware re ferred to tho city attornoy for an opinion as to the legality of Squires’ claims against the aty. ‘Tho city attorney 1s instructed to send for persons aud papers. With tha Squires bill stricken out and Morrissey’s bill' reduced to &4, the call was dissolved, the ordinance passed, and just before miduight the council ndjourned.

The contract was made and sent to tho wayor for his approval. After lookiug it over, he stamped it with bis veto and returned it to the eity council. Tuesday night that body rejected the veto and approved the contract, Mr. Blumer voting in the he mayor admits the necessity sewer, but thinks the council has exceed its authority by accepting a price in ex of that allowed by law. Some years ago a sewer was constructed agninst the protests of the abutting property owners, who went into court, claiming that the tax levied to pay for the' scwer was in excess of the benefits derived, The case was cd before Judge Wakeloy, who held that a tax not exceeding £ por running foot could be collected from the abuttiug property. Siuce that time the decision has been aceepted as luw and all excess has been tuken out of the general sewer fund In the case of the Bemis park sewer the contract price is £1.50 ver foot on each side, or$3 per running foot, which makes a total excess of over £2,700, which would como from the sewer fund. ' But right here is where the trouble comes. The sewer fund is exhausted and if the excess is paid, which it must e if the sewer is construcicd, the moncy must be taken from some of the other funas, "o show that this caunot be legally accom- plished the mayor quotes from section 110 of ths amended charter, which reads as follows coutract or vote incurring an indebl- eduess for mone; yable out of ¢ fund s i, shall be made by the mayor or city council, and no final action shall be taken upon such provosed contract or indebtedness without the certiticate of the comptrotler that the are fnds available to pay the same. And in 1o event shall any contrict be made or_in- debredness created in excess of the limit authorized by law except in the event of an unforseen aceident requiring the immediate repair for the puolic good which fact must be certitied to by the board of public works and only then with the concurrence of the mayor and two-thirds of the entire council.' In the casc of the sewer mentionea, the comptro'ler refused to muke the cortif as his books show the funds were not. ou hand. This is » ¢ causes the mayor to feel sad. Thel ething mo ious. The idea of the council is to nave a judgment rendered against the city, if the excess is not tuken from the sewer fund. But here tho cxecutive thinks te has the council on the hip, for section 125 of the charter cou- tains the following provision: SAny councilman voting to incur any lia- bility or to create any debt 1u excess of tho amount limited or_authorized by law. or if the mavor shall approve any ordinarce or contract involving the expenditure of money in excess of the amount limited or authorized by luw, and any liavility sought to be in- curred’ or debt created in excess of the amount limited or authorized by law, shall be taken and held by any court of thé state as the joint or several liability and obligation of the councilmau voting fo or approving of such liabiticy, oblization or debt shall be con- clusive evidence of malfeasance in ofiice and for which such councilman or mayor may be removed from his ofice.” With the law as it is and the construction of the sewer authorized by the vote of the council, the mayor finds considerable satis- faction'in quietly sitting in his oftice and awaiting further du\'elupmunls.

The Thomson-Houston company has se- cured the contract for furnishing the vesi | deut portion of thecity with 700 incandescent- lights, but it is a question if the lights will glimmer this year as the mayor is quito liable to stamp his veto upon the agrecment. The mayor regards the price as_being low enough and_is satisfied with the light that it 15 proposed to furnish the city. This is not the trouble. The question of finances will stand in the way. Last year the city for lighting purposes and at the present | time the fund is about exhausted. This year | the levy for the same purpose will be £35,000, | and should the new lamps be ordered under | the new contract, tho fund would be ex- hausted long before the new levy could bo available, in which event the “city would have to remain in darkness for several months without an overlap is created. i “The mayor is strenuously opposcd to over- laps, as he believes in having the city start in with money in the treasury at tne begin- ning of the fiscal year.
