A Failure From the start - COM
stantiy Undergoing tepzirs.
Captain Sooy of the lighthouse tender
z zania denies that his boat will receive
new boilers. The Pussy u Jones Com
pany has received the contract for over
hauling and repairing her boilers and
Cramp IL Sons will haul her out for re-
pairing.
The Zizsnia seems to have been fall
ure from the very start. There is 70 doubt
but that her boilers are too small and in
adequate 10 furnish the steam necessary to
drive her at ordinary speed. She can only
run about seven to eight miles per hour,
and on squirt can do ten miles, but she
cannot maintain it long, as her steam
soon gives out. She wss built by Ramsey
a. Son OF Baltimore. At the time the con-
tract was awarded il was evident that a
screw was loose somewhere, as Ram
sew d Sons bid was only
S65,C00, while the Pussy & Jones
Company, which was anxious TO
secure the contract, could only bid
somewhere about $50, 1000. Something
would necessarily have to be neglected in
the construction of the vessel in order to
let her builders out whole and as is we'll
known, the work was taken out OF their
hands before completion and finished by
the government. Although still q new
boat the Zizsnia will soon have eaten uI
/ in repairs the difference that it woulc
have cost 70 build her in first-class styl'
in the beginning.

Griffith reported balance of 500, 63l.l2
on hand, Of which SOL 431. 10 is for cur
rent expenses and $i8, 200 for intercept
ing sewer. City Auditor Newell reported
collections of liens amounting to $3.50. or
This clerk of the market reported collec.
tons for October amounting to S1l9 %.
The secretary was instructed to send
the deed of G street to the Lobdell Gar
Wheel Company. Assistant Engineer L.
Chalklsy Hstton sent communication
calling the attention of the board, in
view OF the early bulldog of the inter-
cepting sewer, TO the fact that 1t would
be economical, wise and prudent, to test
tho various cements now in the market,
so as to ASCERTAIN which cement will give
the best results, all thugs being consid-
cred. mir. Hstton was authorized to
make the necessary tests, which he will
report to tho board.
A resolution was adopted fixing and
establishing the grade, height of curb
and width of sidewalk on Parrish street
between Second and Third.
Communications from Walker X Elliott
and the Hopes & Townsend Company,
asking the city to vacate Second street
east of Lombard until such time as

for an opinion.
Tbs street commissioner was instructed
to notify the plumber who is connecting
the houses of W. f. Seeds on Fourth
street, between Washington and Jefferson
streets, that no permit had been issued
| for the sewer connections and that he
would be proceeded against il the fees
were not paid within 48 hours. Mr..
Murray thought that Mr.. Carpenter had
done similarly in the case of the houses
which he erected on the old Ohildren's
Home property, NJ those houses had beer
connected without permits. Mr.. Oarpen.
ter denied the assertion and said that he
had been willing to pay the amount hxed
by the board whenever the boeld would
decide what he owed, although he claimed
that he owed nothing, as the sewer pssse'
through the property and sewer conneo
tions were already made before the neV
houses were erected. Mr.. Murray wanted
Mr.. Carpenter to make an offer of wha
he considered just, but the latter sail
that the board must fix the amount. Mr.
Murray was heard to mutter something
about bringing up the matter again in
different way.
