THIRD STREET OPENING.
Councilman Rhodes moved that the
street superintendent be instructed to
accept $3.50 from the Electric Railroad
company as its portion Of expense for
opening Third street.
THE BONDS ALL RIGHT.
City Attorney Mcfarland was called
before the council, at request of Mr..
tufts, and reported that there was moth
ing in the communication of the attor-
ney general (Mr. Hart) to prevent coun-
Gil from making award of contract for
purchase of sewer bonds if they wished.
On motion of the sewer committee the
entire issue OF 1896, 900 worth of bonds
was awarded to Blair & Co., of New
York, their bid being par, with accrued
interest, and a premium of $9904, the
bidders to deposit certified check for
$4,000 on Tuesday as guarantee OF good
faith.
The city attorney added that the best
proof that the Hart letter was not wor-
thy of consideration was that the city
had already sold 1904 900 worth of bonds
at a broad premium, and the legality of
their issue had never once been ques-
toned.
Contracts for painting bridges, with
proved at $3.50, and the council then
passed to
