To the President and Common Council:
GENTLEMEN: At the time of the extern
sion of the Dodd road to the Sunfish Lake
road, one Of the tracts of land taken for
said extension was not paid for the reason
that it was in part owned by minors. The
parties owning the land can now make q
title, and they have executed a deed to the
city. The amount agreed to be paid at
the time Of the transaction was $50. I en-
close herewith the deed, and ask that after
the matter has been inquired into By the
Council, that an order may be drawn for
the money. Respectfully,
w. Z. MURRAY, City Attorney.

OF City Engineer Paul Bridge
To the Honorable Common Council:
GENTLEMEN: A recent examination of
the bridge across the Mississippi river at
Wabashaw street, develops such
rapid decay Of the timber in the lower
chords since the inspection last spring,
that do not consider the structure longer
safe for travel without additional supports.
and / would recommend that Immediate
steps be taken to strengthen the bridge by
placing at least three supports under each
span beyond the iron span. I would
further recommend that at least
two policemen be stationed on the bridge
all the time to prevent the concentration
of heavy loads. The entire structure, with
the exception of the iron span, should be
rebuilt as soon as possible.
Yours respectfully,
u. w. RUNDLETT, City Engineer.
