POLICE PAID AT OLD Rmz’ [ncrease Voted for December by the‘ Board is Out Off. COUNCIL WOULD NOT HAVE IT City Attormey Advides that Alvoo-‘ ment Entered Into I July by the Firemen and Policemen Camnot Be Broken. | | | Policemen will not draw the extra $» pei | man allowed . them by action of the fire and police board on their December salar- fes | When the pay roll.ordinance for the last month of 190 reayhed the councll Monday morning, In_adjourned meeting, Chairman Funkhouser of the finance committee made | the statement that coupcll could not pass | the ordinance as drawn. He, therefore, | moved that the pay roll ordinance be passed except s ta the policemen, Coun- | climan Brucker seconded the motion and | 1t prevalled. This action was not taken, however, until City Attorney Burnam had been called in to advice counci. Mr. Burnam gave ft as his opinion that to pass the police pay | roll for the' Increased amount would be | clearly against the spirit and letter of the agreement entered into last July by all | members of the fire and police departments, “Now If you allow the policemen this | extra money we will simply be inviting a lawsult involving M0,00 to 30,00 We have had, thiy matter up informally with Criet Salter, and, he doubts very much | it his men could be held in line to abide | by any sweh action as this. The whole thing was given very careful consideration last summer, and the agrecment to forego the raise 'n pay provided by the legislature at its last'sesslonf whkd entered Into willingly by all parties, in order that the full force | of men in each department might be kept | at work thc whole Year.” Le tors Get a Rap. Councilman ¥unkhouser supported view strongly, *“The membera of the leglislature from this county acted like a lot of schoolboys," he sald, “In passing the law to ralse the pay of policemen and firemen when tney knew | ‘We had no money, and could not get any, to pay the increased amount.” Councllman ‘Bridges thought the surplus remaining in the general fund could be divided between the two departments equayy. The discussion developed the fact that thera is at present something like $12,000 in the palice tynd rellef and pension fund; also that the charter provides any surplus in the department fund at the end of the year must, be carried jnto that fund, which would thup, by operation of law, be in- creased at this time to the extent of about $500. From the rellef fund wmere will be taken 5,00 for the nej¥* fire and police alarm system, “under | a cvesolution offered by Commipsioner Wgpplch and passed at a recent meeting of the board. This resolu- tion recites the mmount of the fund, and sets out the facts touching same, also the | need for a new afafur system, and ‘pro- vides that $,000 be #et aside from the fund for the purpose stated above. It is expected LhAt When the new Wppor- tionment of funds is made for 1910 the ‘atter part of (this week, the {hcreased salaries for fireman and policemen will be provided for, if such action appears feas- ible. ‘When council adjourns Tuesday evening it will be to Thursday morning, for the purpose of ‘making the apportionment of funds. Every head of a department now has his estimates’ i the hands of the mayor, and’ it appears to be taken for sranted that inoreases will be asked for all along the|'(ne. this Two New Groups 'Fine Residences “to ‘Be Erected Prairie Trust Company and G.
