The Board OF aldermen

The Board of Aldermen met last night
with all but one member present. The City
Clerk reported that the Council in regular
session adhered to their former actian re-
garding the awarding OF the contract to
John Elliott for services as veterinary sur
eeon to the horses in the Fire Department.
Mr. Pritchard moved to refer to the ief OF
the Fire Department. with power to act.
Discussion ensued, which at times became
warm. After some time Mr.. King moved to
lay the motion on the table. Carried. Mr..
Prier moved TO refer the matter to com.
mittee of three from tbs Board and an equal
number from the Council with the Fire
Chief. Mr.. King moved to substitute by
concurring in the action Of the Coun-
Gil Mr.. Kings motion was lost
and Mr. Prier's motion was adopted.
The President named Aldermen Prier, King
and Bernhamer on the committee. Several
attempts were made by members to direct
the attention of the board to the fact that
DR.. L. o. GTeiner had been invited to bid on
the con tract; that be had so bid, and that
his bid Was $50 less than all Others. 1t was
elaine that DR.. Greiner wss as well quail
fed as Drs. Elliott or Pritchsrd, and that
there was every reason why his bid should
have been accepted. The only objection to
this course was understood to be because
somebody in the Fire Department did not
like Greiner personally; but this it was
urged, should not govern the Council and
Board OF Aldermen in the matter of award
in the contract. For some reason the ma
jOrity ignored DR.. Greiners claim in the
matter and the quarrel as to the respective
merits of DR.. Elliott and DR.. Pritchard.
A number of matters from the Council
