The question of passing the resolution over
the mayors veto was then put and lost by q
vote of 20 TO only, Alderman Rand, Rollins
Peterson and Farnsworth voting for its pas
sage and HAYNES and Woodward being alb
sent and not voting. BY some ii was believed
that Aid. Woodward, who had hitherto mani
tested the deepest interest in this resolution,
had absented himself from the council cham
Der during its consideration last night by
previous understanding and this theory GER
tainly seemed plausible, from the fact that as
soon as the vote had been announced he
walked quietly in and took his seat.
The report of the committee on salaries
recommending that the application of Build
ing Inspector Hagen for an allowance of S25
per month for the maintenance of a horse
and buggy was adopted.
Only one response was received to the ad-
vertisement for bids for the removal of ami
NAL manure. This was from F. B. Beaver.
who proposed to remove all garbage, night
soil, ashes. street dirt to point outside the
city limits for the term of one year for the
sum of $4,000. This bid was referred to the
committee on health and hospitals.
Wrangle Number One.
A weak attempt at wrangle was made up
in the first ward pay roll of the street force
but after few moments of hot discussion 1t
fell fiat.
Work had been done in the First ward of
which he knew nothing He had been as
much as told that it was none of his business
what was done. John Fleethorn, a compare
lively rich man. had been appointed fore
man. Fleethorn had two teams at work,
while poor men were almost starving.
Another foreman was Icing paidfor.working
while he spent his time in saloons Those
were his reasons in brief.
The comptroller returned this roll with
communication setting forth that IL was in
formal, as only one of the aldermen of the
board had signed it. Aid. Bradish moved
that the roll be ordered paid. At this point
Aid. Ingenhutt arose and explained his rea-
sons for not having signed the pay roll. as
follows:
Aid. Parry stated that as it was getting near
the LIST of July he thought the pay roll should
be passed, as the men would want their
money. Aid. MCGOWAN then stated that he
had no desire to oppose his colleague from
the First ward, but that he had seen no
reason for refusing to sign the pay roll. If
the street commissioner or his men had been
guilty of any dereliction of duty, he knew
nuthing of it, but if such was the case. he
would not favor the passage of the pay roll
He moved to amend the previous motion by
provision appointing committee Of five
TO investigate the manner in which the First
ward street commissioner had performed his
duties. This motion to amend was carried.
At this point Aid. Ingenhutt offered TO at
tach his signature to the pay roll and let it
go into the budget with the others, but Aid.
Gray objected, and the amended motion was
put and carried The chair announced as
members of the investigating committee Aid.
