The Estimates Submitted By the Board Of Public

There was rather protracted session
Of city Council last evening, but during
the first two or three hours there was
nothing wildly exciting about the pro-
ceedings. 10 was the annually recurring
occasion FOR the granting OF the licenses,
and the reading OF the applications, the
coming and going OF the principals and
SuretieS, the approving OF the bonds,
and the other parliamentary work, par
ticularly the discussions on question
able cases, consumed much time, and it
was nearly half-past ten o'clock before
the last application had been disposed
OF, and by this time the large crowd OF
spectators that were Tor some time
TANNED In a solid mass near the door
had nearly an departed.
There were one hundred and twenty
six liquor licenses granted, all but two
meeting with favorable action. The
application OF Harry Wheat was read,
but as Mr. Wheat was out Of town, and
neither OF the SuretieS were present. it
was moved that the Mayor approve the
bond, TO which an objection was raised,
particularly by Councilman Hoe, who
stated that the Milwaukee beer was a
non-uniou beer. The vote being called,
the motion to have the Mayor approve
the bond was lost
Another case which occupied cOnsid-
cradle time was where two parties,
Mallary * Wetzel and Lloyd Biddle,
both applied for a license at the same
place, and there was considerable Of j
controversy as 10 whether Il license
could be granted in this way. and who
was entitled To il. Capt. Doyener ap-
peared as counsel for Mallary & Wetzel
aud argued the case at some length.
/ The license, however, was finally
granted 20 Biddle
The application OF Frank Leslie was
referred 10 the committee on petitions
aud remOnStranceS. Ii was a long and
tedious ordeal. and President JepSou
was relieved at different times by Coun-
cilmen Robertson and Brock.
Resolutions OF respect were passed
upon the death OF Col. George Z. Bis
sell.
Councilman Pollock introduced a res
IolutiOn in the First Branch asking that
railroads be prohibited from using btu
minOuS coal within the city limits,
which was concurred in by the Second
/ Branch.
