OF Committee on Fire Department
To the Common Council of the City of st.
| Paul:
| GENTLEMEN: The Committee on Fire De-
partment, to whom was referred the petition
of P. j. Bowler, asking to be reimbursed for
horse killed. wagon broken. etc., beg leave to
report that in their opinion the petition
should not be granted, the City Attorney con-
curing. We do not think he has any legal
claim against the city for the damages sus-
| tanned, and as he can test the question in the
courts If he is so disposed, it is better that he
be compelled to take this course than that the
Council should set a bad precedent by allow
| ing an unfounded claim, as we believe this to
| be.
Respectfully submitted.
CHAs. E. Otis,
Chairman.
