their illegality.
Aid. Andrews moved to extend the
time to Jan. 1st.
Aid. Lille, wanted to make the con.
tract for one or two years, If con-
tract had to be made.
Aid. Andrews said that by Jan. 1st
the council would know what it
wanted to do, and it would be in a
better position to make contract.
The mayor announced recess of
five minutes and invited the alder
men into another room to talk the
matter over privately. When the
council came back again, the amend
ment was lost by tie vote, the mayor
voting mo" The original motion
then received the same vote, Aids.
Adams, Andrews and Bradley voting
"aye," and the others "no." Mayor
Weaver said that owing to the great
demand for light all over the city, he
had no objection to the arrangement
until Dec. 1St, and he decided the mo-
tiOn affirmatively.
Acting City Attorney Young held
that as the motion implied a con-
tract, four votes were required to
carry the motion. The mayor then
held that he had no right to vote, and
declared the motion lost.
Aid Peterson explained that he
was opposed ito the exhorbitant
rates charged, and renewed his mo-
tion made at the last meeting that
the city pay the company SIS per
month for arc lights and So for incan-
descents for an indefinite time.
Aid. Andrews moved that the mat

r. E. Brown said that he thought
he could safely say that the company
would decline the proposition.
Aid. Zimmerman wanted to know
how many more times the lighting
matter would come up.
The street committee reported
favorably upon the plat OF Cummings
and the plat was adopted.
Aid. Bradley recommended that l..
G. M. Fletcher's proposition offering
ground for hay market free of
charge, near the corner of Cherry and
Pike streets, be accepted. Aid. An
drews wanted the matter laid over I'M
til the next meeting, to see where the
people want the market. Mr..
Fletcher said that both his pieces of
on the street could be occu-
pied, so far as he cared. A motion to
accept the proposition was finally
carried without opposition.
Propositions for 500 feet of hose,
more or less, were received as follows:
: Revere Rubber Co., three grades,
81, 7Octs and 60cts per foot, guaranteed
to stand from $50 to 400 lbs. pressure,
for four to five years.
Eureka Fire Hose Co., at SCOTS. and
55cts. guaranteed to stand $50 to 400
lbs. pressure, for four years.
Chicago Fire Hose Co., 7Octs., guar
anteed to stand $50 lbs. pressure, for
three years.
Two representatives were present
and offered to do their talking to the
fire committee and not take up the
councils time, and the bids were re-
ferred to that committee and the
chief of the fire department.
Aid. Bradley said that the higher
poles would necessitate more wire for
the fire alarm system. He moved that
Mr.. Buchholz purchase the wire need
ed, and this was carried. 1t was sug-
guested that fire alarm box ought
to be placed in the city hall.

A BROKEN LEG.
Henry Uimen Falls Over an Embank-

a.. ment i'm the Dark. &
Another accident which can be at
least partly laid to the absence of the
street lights occurred Sunday night
at about eight o'clock, while the sky
was overcast with clouds. Henry u
men, the North Front street barber,
was coming down from Calvery
cemetery and when near Seventh
street he stepped off the Iembank-
ment and went down. The place is a
bad one, and was ordinarily lighted
by an incandescent lamp placed at the
foot of the hill. The night was dark,
there was no light, and Mr.. Ulmen
did not see the sharp pitch off, and
the result of his fall was the breaking
of one bone of his right leg between
the knee and ankle and the disloca-
tion of the ankle. Mr.. Ulmen is
short and fieshy, and he fell heavily.
DR.. Andrews was summoned and
set the fracture and treated the
ankle, but it will be some time before
Mr.. Ulmen can be out.
