WHOLESOME wARNINo.


WHOLESOME WARMING.
An attack was yesterday made at the regular meet
ing of the Board Of Aldermen by Mr.. Morris against
the Park Commissioners In connection with this
subject the gentleman offered lengthy preamble and
resolutions setting forth tho following iacis-A few
weeks ago the city mucted In about ST. 0U0, costs
and damages, in SUIT brought by a citizen for having
received injuries In falling the sidewalk, where
tho owner Of the premises failed 10 have the

this had several times reported the owner for
neglect Within the last four days several thou
sand citizens have been also reported by the
police for the neglect The preamble then goes
say that the Purk Commissioners shave

across the parks IN this city. In violation OF tho
ordnance thereby showing their incompe'oncy m ,or

contended by tho Alderman that these facts prove
that 'tho Commissioners have no knowledge OF agr'-
culture, horticulture economy IN looking alter tho
city's interest"
PRESSING THE CHARGES.
A resolution was appended calling upon Mayor ELY
10 notify the Commissioners that III case VI failure OF
duty In the future, 'charses and specifications will be
preferred against them Tor neglect, incom petoncy and
dis regard Tor tneir oath " Another resolution d.
rected that hereafter all and ice DO removed by

the snow from all park walks be shoveied on TUG

The only crossw1k IN good condition was that IN

Alderman Reilly did not think 1t politic TO urge the
proscntation OF charges until IL became apparent that
the Commissioners had neglected their duty.
Alderman Lewis moved that the whole subject be
referred The Conmilice on Lands Places and Parks
This resolution lost Alderman Sauer's amend
ment striking out the resolution 10 making charges
against the Park commissioners being adopted. ihe
remainder OF the preamble aud resolutions were then
adopted as U whole.
