JURORS TO BE PAID wITRoUT DELAY.-At
the last meeting of the Common Council
Mr.. Christian, of Clay Ward, introduced an
ordinance, which was appropriately referred,
to provide for the payment of allowances to
Jurors. Heretofore it has not only been
necessary that the claims for jury service
should be certified by the court, but they
should be presented to the City Council, re.
ferred to the Committee on Claims and Sala-
ries, passed hythe Council after being re-
ported from the committee, and then ap-
proved by the Mayor, sometimes causing a
delay of several months. The new ordi-
nance provides that the Auditor shall be
authorized to pay to the Sheriff of the city
the amounts due to jurors for services reu-
dered in the Circuit and Chancery Courts,
and to the City Sergeant the amounts due to
Jurors for service in the Hastings Court,
upon orders Of the courts certified by their
respective clerks. The Auditor, however,
shall not pay any amounts for jury service
to any person other than the officers named
above, or their deputies.
The ordinance now goes to the Common
Council, and if they pass it, it will be en-.
rolled and forwarded to his Honor Mayor
Kelley for bis approval.
