disturbed and enlivened by hot till
between Aid. Bradish and Haynes,
which for short time threatened to
end in personal encounter. The eX-
act cause of the trouble could not be
learned last evening, but from what did
transpire il is plain that there exists
bad blood between the gentlemen,
which will not easily be dispelled.
After the usual references of new
business of small Importance Aid. Rand
asked permission to submit the report
OF special committee at this time, and,
there being no objection, Clerk Haney
proceeded to read the report of the spe-
cial committee appointed to select site
for dump. Before he had finished
reading the title of the report Aid.
BraZie rose to point of order, claiming
that in the motion under which the
committee was appointed it was specific
ally stated that the report was to be
made TO the committee on health and
hospitals. President Potter ruled that
the committee, having been appointed
by the council, should report to that
body, and that that portion of
the motion which called for report to
the committee on health and hospitals
was out of order. The report of the
special committee. which consisted of
AID. Rand, Hunter and KiichlI, was
then read. They recommended that the
dump be located on the outer bank at
the extension of Twenty-fourth street
and Riverside avenue. Accompanying
this report was resolution by Aid
Rand, instructing the city engineer to
erect on Riverside avenue, at the point
named, building and chute to convey
the tnlghtSoil to the river, and limiting
the cost to s., ZOO. Aid. BraZie moved
that the entire matter be referred to the
committee on health and hospitals. Aid.
Rand proposed a substitute motion to
adopt the resolution. Then followed a
long discussion, Aid. Rand, Hunter,
Klichli, Haynes and MCGOWAN favOring
the measure on the ground that some
action must be taken in this matter at
once, and that the location named was
the best which had beon mentioned, aud
Aid. Brazie, Burrows and Gaines oppos-
Ing it with the argument that it had not
yet been fully considered. and might
result in great detriment to the city if
adopted too hastily. The assistant city
engineer was called upon, and stated
that the proposed site was, in his opn-
ion, the most practicable that had yet
been mentioned, and explained that the
cost OF extending the water main 20 that
point, as would be required, would be
about S2, 600, or 81 per foot. After some
further discussion the resolution of Aid.
Rand was adopted.
Aid. Schwartz explained that in adver-
Using for bids for the removal of dead
animals the usual clause requiring that
each be accompanied by a BOND had
been omitted, and that the bids which had
been submitted were therefore informal
according to law, although the require
ments of the advertisement had been
complied with. On motion of Aid.
hllchlI all bids were rejected. and Oh
motion of Aid. Schwartz it was decided
to return them to the bidders and re-
advertise for bids.
Health Commissioner Kelly submit
ted report cOndemning the South
police station. and pronouncing 1t
detriment 10 the health of the prisoners
and officers, and unfit for further use
for the reasons that the floors are rot
ten, and that there is not sufficient
ventilation. The report was referred to
the superintendent of police.
Inc committee Oh ways and means,
TO whom was referred the proposition
OF the Fidelity Insurance company to
insure the city against loss through
the death or injury of any of its en-
ployes, reported favorably upon that
matter, and recommended that the city
attorney be instructed to so insure the
saborers employed by the city i'll laying
sewers and water mains to the amout of
the respective pay rolls and not less
than 100000. City Attorney Russell,
upon being asked for his views on this
point, spoke strongly against the plan,
larguing that there were certain obllga-
lions for deaths and injuries which
the city should pay and other claims
which were not just, and that, by keep
Ang this matter in its own hands, the
CITY could control it in a much more
satisfactory manner than if it were
Sarmed out to insurance companies.
fThe report was re-committed. The
committee on payrollS submitted ZOO
warrants aggregating $3.50, 900, with the
recommendation that they be approved.
The report was adopted. A resolution
was passed granting to T. l.. Dickey
the contract to examine the tax lists of
Hennepin county, in order to check the
entries therein of special assessments
made by the city of Minneapolis, and
providing that his remuneration shall
be 10 per cent of the benefits derived
10y the city from increased assessments.
Hhe committee OH roads and bridges
submitted two reports in the matter of
the widening of GrOVeland avenue. The
majority report recommended that all
previous proceedings be abandoned and
a new commission appointed, and the
mlnorlty report approved the work of
the present commission. After a long
Rnd bitter discussion between Aid.
Haynes, who favored the minority re-
port and Aid. Bradish and Lloye, who
favored the majority report, the former
was adopted.
After this matter had been disposed
or, AID. Haynes crossed the room to
sYhere Aid. Bradish was sitting and
made some remark in a low tone
the remark. but it was very soon
evident to all present that it had greatly
Hncensed Aid. Bradish. What do you
anean?' he exclaimed. Aid. Haynes re-
piled III low tone, evidently irving to
explain matters, but Aid. Bradish was
evidently too angry to be appeased. 81

propose to know, l can tell you that, %
shouted he. Then, jumping TO his feet,
ne appealed to Aid. Parry, who was in
The CHAIR, urging point of privilege.

gan; but at this point he was inter
Tupted by Aid. Haynes, who said:
Il also rise to point of order. just
made remark to Aid. Bradish which
. will stand by and explain to
him at the proper time, but it is not a
matter that is before the council, and |
tion't think he has right to bring it be-
fore the council. "Have [ the floor, Mr..
president, or who has it?' excitedly ex-
Claimed Aid. Bradish. If that matter
IS not before the council, l propose to
prlng 1T up. He has made a remark to
me which want explained, and pro-
pose to give him chance. He made the
