WORK THROUGH THE WINTER.
More Sewers to Be Begun at Once
Labor COmmittee's Call.


Labor Committees Call.
The Board of Public Works held SEES
sion behind closed doors af3ain yesterday
afternoon, and, besides approving the list
of appointments made by City Engineer
Brown, discussed with that official the
plans for pushing the sewer work this win
ter. The board decided to let all of
this sewer work it can this winter.
in order to give idle laboring xnen
work. The work can be done almost as
well i'm the winter time as in the summer
time. as so much of it is under ground.
Charles Doe, the contractor on the East
Washington-street sewer, asked permission
of the board to transfer the contract and
the board agreed to this. The firm of M.
J. Griffin G. Co., the principal member of
which is a Detroit banker. will finish the
work Stakes were set yesterday, and the
trenches will be started this week. A hum
dred or men Will be given employ
ment- City Engineer Brown states that
only n small proportion of the labor en-
ployed on sewers is skilled. The East
WashingtOn-street sewer will have to be
put down a considerable distance below the
surface in some places as there is quite a
hill east of Noble street
The main sewer that is to change the
mouth of the present sewer emptying into
White river will be begun this winter. The
papers are all prepared, and the board
will advertise for bids at an early day.
Engineer Herring drew the plans for this
sewer. A hundred or more men will be
given work on this contract. Ex-City En-
gineer Mansfield, who has the contract for
the Elm-street sewer, together with w. C.
Allen, says that he will begin work on the
sewer at once. He expects to give one
hundred men work for two months com
pletng the sewer by JAN l. The board will
also consider further extensions of the
sewerage system, and wherever a contract
can be let with advantage this winter it
will be done.
A committee Of workingmen. headed by
w. r. Baker, had an appointment with
the Board of Works yesterday afternoon
The committee asked that the board push
all the public Improvements it could this
winter in order to keep the wolf from
many workingmans door 1t was also
asked that preference be given TO home
labor The committee understood that a
large number of outsiders had been brought
here by foreign contractors. The board
gave assurances that 1t perfectly will
ing to do as the committee wished. The
committee told the board that the labor
unions thought we'll of Street Commits
sioner Fishers plan of dividing the work
in his department so that as many men be
given few days work each week as pos
sible.
There was nothing said about the board
cutting its own salaries.

men can be employed, and the work will
not suffer by being pushed during the win
ter.
The Mayor stated at the conclusion of
MIR. Wildmans remarks that branch of
the same committee of workingnien had
been to see him. He thought it would be
better to wait until the conference of the
committee with the Board of Trade on Mon
day evening before taking any action look
ing TO the calling Of a meeting to discuss
the serious condition of affairs. He pro-
posed to invite seventy or more citizens to
meet and confer with him to see what could
be done to relieve the distress. The Mayor
also stated that he had sent to Boston for
information concerning the working of the
civil-service regulations in the municipal
government of that city. Dr. Hays, presi-
dent of the Board of Health, spoke a few
words about what that board was doing,
and the meeting adjourned.

SWEEPING AND sPRINKLING TAXES.
Assessment Bureau Away Behind I'm
It's Work.

The street-sweeping and sprinkling con-
tractors are feeling very gloomy over their
prospects of getting their money from the
city for the work they have done. The
money due the contractors is supposed to
be paid by the property owners when they
settle their November taxes. AS stated sew
eral days ago, the assessment bureau has
not made out the rolls for the assessments
on sprinkling and sweeping, and it is hardly
probable that the work will be completed
for a month yet. 1t seems that the bureau
completely neglected the work during the
campaign, in order to hustle for Sullivan
and now the contractors must wait for
their money The question of whether prop
erty owners can be compelled to pay these
assessments in January also comes up. The
law says that the assessments shall be
paid at the same time the November in
stallment of taxes are paid. IL the city is
not then ready to receive the money 1T
might be urged that the collection will have
TO go over until next November

TREATED THE JOCKEYS.
A Doctor Sues the Blood. Horse
Association.

Justice of the Peace Cook was in angry
mood yesterday morning when he called
the case of E. c. Carroll against the Pacific
Coast Blood-horse Association. James II.
Long. attorney for the association, wanted
a continuance. on the ground that he was
engaged in another court.
Justice Cook remembe that he had
postponed the case again and again on the
same ground. and resolved to stand it no
longer. So he refused TO accept the ex-
cuse, as there were numerous other ljt-
gants demanding his time, and ordered the
case to proceed.
The plaintiff. Carroll, is the assignee of
DR.. w. j. Quinlan. Quinlan claimed that
he was employed on April 10 last as physi-
clan for tho association, to be on the
grounds during races, in order to take
charge of any sudden case of accident or
sickness among the jockeys. He claimed
to have attended TO three cases, and to
have ALWAYS been on hand. He said he
was employed by President Tom Williams
OF the Blood horse Association. Attorney
Long tried to secure another continuance,
on the ground tina, Tom Williams was in
Chicago. but Justice Cook would brooks no
delays.
After hearing the case, no showing being
made that DR.. Quinlan had not been en-
ployed. the court give judgment for the
plaintiff.

statements he had made with regard to a
desire 60 ''cut Turner's throat for some
thing he had done to him." mo, sir: no,
