intendent He ms that there were num-
fire escapes which he thought came within

a nuisance existing on the premises rented
by him aud owned by A. S. Miller. 1t

his landlord TO abate the same. but without
result. Chairman Van Brockiin said that
he had already seen Mr.. Miller about it,
and it was being remedied.
The petition of G.. A. EcKerly tor water
pipe on Harrison street was read. He
offered to pay half the expense for the
same, as the board had formerly rejected
a petition for the laying of the pipe as
being too expensive.
The ordinance allowing the board to
purchase 1000 cords of wood was read, and
it was decided to advertise for bids.
The bid of A. G. Smith for hauling wood
for the pumping station at $L75 per cord
was rejected.
The board was requested to investigate
the condition of Washington street, with
q view to repairing, as it was in bad con-
dition aud made it unsafe Tor the passage
