TIE BOARD OF ALDERMEN.


EeTsssi To Confirm Jackson and Caiiiesn
--Dtscu ssfon Of Board Of Public W orks-
The board of aldermen again tarned
down the mayors appointments last even
ing By refusing 10 confirm the Eornina-
ton OF Andrew Jackson and r. II.
CAiligan 20 succeed Jesse Cochran and
J. VI. Wolfe as members Of the board OF
pnsiic works Messss. Brewer, Dsulton
and Carrie we're not present, and Alderman
Miller cast the only vote in favor Of con-
frmation.
A discussion Of the present status OF the
hoard of public works was precipitated by
petition from several hundred vorkmen
for employment, which Mr.. Sweeney
moved 20 refer 20 the board Of public
works.
Mr.. Ingram stated the present act
ing board ackson. Caliigsn and Van
Brockiin-bad not shown much DISPOSE
ton To give men employment. as they had
already discharged what men the city had
employed. Two of them were only
acting as members OF the board and would
soon be succeeded By others. He believed
the council should take hold of some of
these offices and see what could be done.
''Them's my sentiments" cried DIR. Jor-
dan.
Dr. Sweeney read from the charter TO
show that the council had power only
over Offices subordinate to heads OF de-
partments.
DR. Jordan said he saw several legal
gentlemen present and would call on Mr..
Fairfield for an opinion on this subject.
DR.. Sweeney said tina. in the absence of
the corporation counsel he would be glad
10 hear from Mr. Fairfield. Dr. Jordan
said he would prefer Mr.. FairfeId's opln-
ion anyway. as he was unbiased
Mr.. Fairfield thanked the gentlemen for
the compliment. bat stated that as the
council had law officer 1t would be
wrong TO act upon the advice of anyone
else In so important matter. He would
be glad TO give his opinion to any one of
the aldermen privately.
DIR. Sweeney reported on the recommen-
dasion OF Superintendent Callgan, OF the
water department.. 10 reduce water rates to
large buildings using elevators, in order 90
compete with the Seattle Steam Heat and
Power Company. He thought the charter
forbid making special rates. This precip-
isated a mixed discourse from Dr. Jordan,
who got inextricably mixed up in hy-
d-aulics and hydrostatics, but endeaYored
w SobfiHcc the eouncA tDat water wOuld
flow down hill when once il had been
pumped mp. The matter was postponed.
The railroad committee was made spe-
ciai COMMITTEES TO consult with property
owners on the water front regarding a
settlement of the right-of-way of different
railroads. The committee was instructed
to meet with a similar committee from the
house of delegates. DIR. Sweeney set
Wednesday afternoon at 3 o'clock for
hearing the matter.
Mr.. Carrie, who had come In since the
vote on the confirmation of Messrs. Jack
son and Caliigan. requested that his vote
be recorded in the affirmative for coniirma-
ton. Objection was made, and he with
drew his request.
The comptrolier's estimate OF city ex-
penses for March was referred TO the
