To the City Council:
On the fourteenth day of March last | adj
dressed q communication to your honorable
body relative to the great damage done to the
bulkheads and levee In the Third District by
the very severe storm which took place on
the ninth of said month; that had been di-
rected by the City Surveyor to Immediately
repair the same, and that the urgency was 50
great that could not wait for the Council to
afford the relief to which / was entitled; that
was making the necessary repairs under
protest, and would look to the city for reim
bursement. / now present the bill of cost Of
said repairs amounting to, say $6543 IS.
From June, 1877, to the first OF Janu-
and landings was done in the most thor
Ough and satisfactory manner. No part
of the river front failed to receive my at
tentiOn. All the repairs were done under the
supervision of Mr.. Louis Fl. Pile, deputy
city surveyor, and the whole work was estf-
mated by him to cost S15O,5O 80, as per report
made by him to the city January 2, 1878.
Always holding myself in readiness to keep
the wharves and landings in the order re-
quired by the lease, [ have at the same time
maintained that am not legally and equita-
bly, responsible for damages produced by ex-
traordinary causes; that no such responsible
ty was contemplated; that disasters thus oc-
curing might be of such vast extent that the
lease construed in that light would be an alb
surdity. I therefore look to your honorable
body to approve the bill herewith presented.

A Milwaukee dispatch says reports from
nearly all the counties in Northern Mime
sofa, and from many counties Of Northern
Wisconsin, give generally favorable ac-
counts Of the crops. In some OF the
eastern counties in Wisconcin the wheat
crop was never better, and will be ready for
harvest by the middle of July; other coun-
ties complain Of chintz bugs. Reports from
forty counties. embracing the northern hall
OF Iowa show the northeastern part OF the
State, which has always been most favora-
bic for the wheat crop, is least promising,

rhe official Returns Give the Nom

ventiOn-The keaTneyites BADLY
Beaten.

SAN Francisco, Cal, July 3.-The Off
cial election returns have been received
from all except seven counties, besides Sar
Francisco, in which the official canvass i:
not yet complete. The counties yet to hear
from will give non-partisan majorities. The
result OF the count shows beyond doubt
that the non-partisans have elected all ol
their thirty-two delegates at-large, and prob
ably fifty-four county delegates, though
they NAV lose one OF thrt number. The
Karneyites elect fifty-one, and possibly
fiftv-two county delegates; the Republican.
eight, and the Democrats seven. The non
partisans will thus
HAVE A MAJORITY IN THE CONVENTION
of seventeen to twenty over all others. 1t
must also be remembered that the Repub-
licans and Democrats have elected to
represent the conservative element. II is
also true that number Of delegates from
the interior on the Workingmen's ticket are
not in sympathy with what is known as
kearneyism, and the same may be said oil

tionary element will form a small minority
