crowds were in the park yesterday. It

living at a distance. Many Philadel-

if there were better accommodations.
Most Of the excursions from points north

LAST EDITION
THE CHECK WILL BE PASSED.
City Solicitor Turner WIN so Advise the

city Solicitor Turner VIII so Advise the
Committees No Legal Actions.
The Finance and Law Committees of
City Council will meet this afternoon at
2. 30 o'clock to consider the communica-
tions referred to them last evening.
City Solicitor Turner will render his
opinion in the matter to the joint meet
ing of the committees. 1t is understood
that he will advise Council to order the
Union Bank to pay the check.
Acting upon his advice, the committees
will so report to the special meeting of
the City Council tonight, and tomorrow
the check viii be paid.
That will end the matter. Few if any
councilmen believe that the &c street
rider was legally passed, but that has
nothing to do with the payment of the
check. A member of the Finance Com
mittee said this morning that City Coun-
Gil ordered the check paid when it
directed that an order should be drawn
for the amount of the appropriations.
The signers of the communication to the
Union Bank, asking that payment be
stopped, did so on their own RESPONSE
bility. He did not think council should
again order the check paid, but that the
Sl4nefS Oh luH ltlltE W 0nlOn Dduh,
should withdraw their request.
A membership of the Law Committee
said that if the City Solicitor so advised,
the check would probably be ordered
paid. The workmen Of the city needed
the money for the support Of their fam
lies.
There will not be any legal steps taker
to settle the matter further, All tn,
.F Ia.
Street Rider was passed in an under
legality. Knowing when it orderel
the appropriation paid, tn,
desire Of the Street an,
Sewer Department, Council would plac
itself in bad light if it applies for al
injunction against the action Of theyde
partment A gentleman connected witt
the Union Bank said that City Counci
could bring the Street and Sewer Direc
tors to terms easily by having Ithei
bonds entered up.
Another gentleman connected with tn
Union Bank said that he questione
whether the money could be deposite
with a safe deposit company when tn
law provided that it should be put in
bank. The same gentleman said that b
believed Mr.. Carpenter will eventu
ally put the money in the Farmers Bank
The Union Bank could apply for an in
junction restraining the Street an
Sower Department from placing its fund
in any other bank. But its claim as sol
depository of the city funds, is probabl
not based on sufficient legal grounds t
make an injunction stand.
