SOMETHING WRONG ALLEGED

The council took brand new twist at
the water company yesterday, dur
ing the progress of which the prob
lem of water hydrants and their repairs
was opened anew. President iced
wanted one Of the hvdrants in his ward
attended to and moved that the superin-
tendent of street sprinkling make the
necessary repairs and keep an itemized
account of the same, presumably at some
time in the future for presentation to the
water company for payment. Council
man Munson and others of his colleagues
opposed the motion on the ground that
It was contrary to the general policy upon
the subject established by the council.
Councilman iced In reply intimated
that while the policy upon the subject
was being made to fit the occasion, the
people throughout the city are suffering.
Councilman Savage at this point called
the records into question by stating that
last week he had made motion that
the water company be requested to i'm
mediately repair all of the hydrants de-
fective Throughout the city. This was
denied by the city clerk and then on
motion of Councilman Pessell, the clerk
vas instructed to ascertain from the
water company whether or not the bills
for repairing hydrants will be footed by
the corporation.
Hon. Abbot Kinney and other prop
erty owners appeared before the council
this morning and protested vigorously
against the proposed widening of Main
street. between Fifth and Ninth streets.
Thew claimed that the petitiOn asking
for the improvement had been signed
several years ago, and that since then
several of the signers had died; also that
the majority of the property owners were
not on the petition. Judge Pope, who
represented the protestants, said nothing
would be gained by widening the street;
that. to the contrary, the proposed change
could not be Carried into effect without
the expenditure of very large sum. The
matter was continued one week.
