1S DEY| MET THE MAJOR 1 Chairman Birkhauser Tells the Committee About Delayed Public Works, EXPLANATIONS OFFERED BY WHOLESALE Question of Completing Last Year's Paving atracts Discassed—Why the Work Ordered Does Not Go Ahead ay it should Thres members of the special council com- | mittee, Messrs, Specht, Howell and Munro, appointed to investizate the affairs of the | Board of Puolic Works, boarded tue chair man, I’ . Birkbauser, 13 bis den yesterday mornic The mecting was opened by Mr. Specht, ehairman of the committee, stating the ob- joct of the early Major Birkhuuser said that he had uoticed something ubout the visitand that ne was prepared to extend a hearty weicome, He couid prove to the satis faction of eny recsonable body of meu that ho bad perforwed his duties and had take care of ull of the work ordered by tue coun cil. “How about the unfinished work of 18011 asked Mr. Specht. “J'm glad you mentioned that,” answored Mr. Birkhouser, as he reacted into his pocket and drew out a tabulated statement showing tno old work under contract sud untivished. What Causes the Delay “This," continued the chairman bas caused all of the trouble, and right here Iwant to make a few explunations. On Uharles st t there was no water onnec: tions, Tuere was no plat fied showing the location of tho proposed water connections, In fact, the council had made no proyisions for auything to show their location. On North Twentioth strect the paving has been tied up by an injunction in the United States conrt. 1 understana thocase bas been sottled, that the water pipes will bo laid and that paving will soon begin, Lowe avonuc 1s tied up with an_injunction. “Luo alleys in the throe blocks mentioned in the st ut bave been completed. je Twenty-fourth streel contract has been cancelea, as the council has declare against cedar blocks, On Sherman avenue ‘s what the council got a hittle too fast and ordered thestreer paved before the curbing orai nance was passed. In this 1 want to say that the chuirman of tho commit teo on paving, curbing, and guttering did ot get his curbing ordinance through the council until June 25 of the present year, Ou Grace street the grade was not establishod untl this spring, though the cbairman on paving got an ordiuance throuch the council last year ordering the paving and curbing. “Plic delay on Thirtoenth street has beon caused by the same conaition of affairs, On Poppleton avenue and Nicholas street the contractors have been at work somo days and bave the two streets nearly completed. Eighteenth street is tied up by an iujunc tion, That settles the old paving contracts.” Then they all talked about uuisance lots. Tho ehaiFmun explamed that the red tape cnuscd the delay, and that the delay was vight in the chiarter provisions. Early the spring the board had taken steps to lave the lots filled. To do this it was first necessary to declare the lots nuisauces, then notices to property ownors were pubhished. After that the vourd advertised for bids, the bids were sentto tie council and then to the mayor That, he suid, required at least sixty to ninety guys to get things in shapo to begin Specht said that Grant, betweon Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fiftn streets, was a disgrace. Ihere was o death-dealing’ pool in that locality und it ought to be filled upon the order of the board. Mr. Howell said the bourd could not order it filled, s it would cost #1,200, und that the board was not authorized to ineur an ex penditure cxcecding 3100, Mr, Specht insisted that asied for bids on the work the board had Yes, that's true,” answered the chair- man. “Woopened bids on May 7and the approved contract got back from the coun eil on July 8, Just two months after wo made the uward. Now, we proposo to waif a few davs and fill the str with the dirt from North Twenticth street. This will save the property owners just 1,200 and will not delay the work ten days.” This Vear's Paving, Then the conversation drilted to the pavine of 1802, Mr. Birkbauscer muintained that the couucilnad passed but three final paving or- dinances and that in all of the mstriets cr ated by those ordinances the work was und. way. “lu this connection,” he continued. “1want to show you that the council is not ays right,” and as ho said 1t he drew out a couplé of paving ordinances, Both were for district 446, but one ordinance de scribed the district as the alley in block 15 o the other as a portion of Michigan street Mr. Howell thought that the committee on paving tad snown considerable negligence in drafting ordinances, Mr. Munro thougnt that such errors were fatal. If the contract was let under either ordinance, the tax to P2y tho cost of the puving could not be- col- ected. “Then they all tulked about the delay in laying permanent sidewaiks. Upon this question the chawmsu sprane o surprise, After explaining that all walks condemned hada been ordered relaid, he brought out some ordinances ordering wuiks in the outlying districts of the tire limits. There the ordi- nance provides that the walks m be of stone, artificial stone, tile or brick “'nése ordinances proviaed for notbing but stone flagging, the chairman of the commit- teo having crased ihe nauies of all other Is. Specht 1 that the city engincer had drawn the ordinances. Mr. Howell insisted that as they had passed throurh Mr. Speeht’s hunds, as chaiviman of the committes, he slone was responsivle for the erasure. It stono walks wero Jaid under the provisions of such ocdinances the tax could never be col- .l:"plm‘ and the city would have to foot the il The committeo will report next Tuesday night. —— A Point for You.

S SILVER MBN TALK POLITICS New Schemo to Securo n Prosident Broached In the Mining Congress, Herexa, Mont., July 14.—~The second day’s session of the national mining congress ef- fected permanent organization by the elec- tion of Francis R. Newlands of Nev president. On taking his seat Mr. Newlands made a strong silver spacch, urgiog the min- iug states to put the interests of silver be- fore party interests, He advocated an agree- wient between political parties providing that the electoral votes of mining states shoula be cast forno person as president who would not agreo to purmit any silver act passed by congress to become a law. His view was that all three of the national parties in the mining states should instruct their electors to act independently in the electoral college in the interest of the silver causo rathor than in the 1aterest of any candidate, In this way their entire voto could bo aggre- gated in the clectoral college and would probabiy hold the balance of power. It would mean that, while the silver question should ve settled by international agreement, the electors couida cast their votes according to their party preai.ections, but if not, could exact as a condition of their vote the support of any ctndiiate requiring their vote, the understanding being that the action of con- gress on the silver question should stand without executive interference. Tho people demanded, be said, that the popular will, as expressed by, coneress, should uot be opposed and defeated by the will of one mau, even though he be president. Heo also claimed that even though the elec- tion was thrown into the houso the causo of silver would not necessarily be lost if the friends of silver wero activo and vigilant. While it was true that the present house was democeatic and would be likely to cast its vote for Clevelund if no precautions weve en, steps should bo taken to nrevent nis ction unless he agreed not to use his ex- ecutive powers as heretofore to defoat fres silver again, Most of the democr: C mem- bers of the prescnt house represented south- ern and western constituencies, which we overwhelmingly for free coinage. Th would be candidates for renomination and election at the coming election, and pledges should be exacted from them that thev wouid not, in the event of the election being thrown into the house, vote for any man for the presidency unless be would give assuranco that executive power would uot be used zainst tho popular will.
