a . me f1Ol Mayor SlC-
We have now replaced our water
pine line on the gravity sewer and have
LoFdered 10000 barrels of cement and all
Necessary materials for the completion
Of .fle sewers. Materials are now ar
rtving and ii requires large sums of
money TO pay freights and defray run
ming expenses Therefore we respect
fully ask that the $4,000 allowed us
as damages be appropriated.
Cohn moved that $4,000 be appro-
priated.
Mccormick thought The new contract
should be approved before any appro-
priation was made.
O'Meara said the city owed them
81, coo including the $4,000 and that
appropriating $4,000 was only advanc-
ing them 81 900 in addition to the $4,000
swing them Independently of the
S2a000.
Watson thought the contractors
should make a good start with the
work before asking an appropriation.
City Attorney Hoge said the facts
were that of the $50, 600 owing the con-
tractors 1924, 900 was for the percentage
retained as guarantee of the work,
the $4,000 was the balance of the final
estimate and the $685. 900 had nothing to
do with the S32, 600
Young was of the opinion that as the
contractors had put up a good and suf-
ficient bond for So 900 to guarantee tina
that the city owed them more than
$4,000 apart from the $4,000, The city
would not be jepordized by appropriate
ing them $1,000
The motion 20 appropriate $4,000 was
carried subject to the approval by the

bond.
