The City Council,

The regular meeting of the Council was held
on last Tuesday evening, OF which the official
minutes will be found elsewhere.
The meeting was very unnterestng till the
bills had been paid, when Mr. Hoban from the
Street and Alley Committee proceeded to sit
down on Shuler, Of the Fire Committee, and
leisurely pile the rest of the council on
said Shulcr's PROSTATE form. Mr.. Hoban
complained that Notwithstanding the fact that
the Council had instructed his committee to use
both of the city teams, Shuler persisted in keep
ing one of them In the house. He wanted to
know who was running these teams" Shuler
or the Council.
Hull thought both teams should be worked
but should be so re gula,ed In their movement:
that when one is at gravel pit, sg., the othe,
could be in the heart of town, which the Street
Supervisor said could be- managed.
The Mayor said he had taken the time at The
last fire-hay stack-bctwecn the stroke Of tn,
bell and the time the team was at the engine
lust q minutes In "a minutes the Hook an,
Ladder company had gone. In regard to tn,
time within which the engine must be ut fire
a minute or two made comparatively little differ
ence for lust so much time Is consumed In max
ING steam and it cannot matter at which end il 1
made. so there Is little danger II the teams ar
away from the house when an alarm is given, es
pecialiy since Mr.. Egan will loan his team
necessary.
Nurphy said the Council had ordered the teau
i IN ,,e nssd and 20 there was no necessity for an
further action on the subject. To which III
Council assenied.
