pledged by citizens and contracted for by
the Business Union" for the illumination
of the city during the week of Estate fair"
are respectfully returned disallOwed. as
they are not proper claims for the city to
pay, representing purposes other than mu-
nicipal. The payment of such claims is
prohibited by the city charter, and an in
territorial violation of the law by the City
Comptroller would be a gross malfeasance.
| have no doubt that when the Business
Union" understands the true situation the
gentlemen comprising it will Immediately
devise means for the payment of the bills
other than out of the Public Treasury.
therefore most respectfully suggest that all
of the bills be referred to the Union for
payment. Your obedient servant,
JOHN W. ROCHE, City Comptroller.
