him.
The mayor said that no matter how
many outside lawyers were engaged
the city attorney would under al
| circumstances lead in representing the
city in all cases. The mayor doubted
the propriety of this council, on the
eve of its dissolution, employing a
permanent attorney to take charge OF
the collection of back taxes.
After further wraugling, the Rob
erts- Stewart resolution was passed,
only Coldwell and Del Buono voting
against it.
Mr.. Stewart said the committee had
interviewed number of lawyers who
thought that 10 or 20 per cent of the
delinquent taxes collected would be a
reasonable fee.
Judge Coldwell again took the floor
and paid an eloquent tribute to Jud ge
Stewart charged he had not received
any proposition from Judge Brack, but
had found excuses for all the lawyers
in order to give the work to one man.
The same committee was instructed
to contract with counsel as suggested
in the report.
The police committee were given
further time to report on the dance
halls and gambling.
Mr.. Del Buono insisted on submit
ting minority report saying that the
council would never get majority re-
port out of the committee. But it was
finally decided to give the committee
further time.
The school trustees asked for a levy
of five per cent more or fifty cents in
all. Judge Coldwell said the city was
not responsible for the salaries of
teachers.
The tax ordinance making a levy of

Jas. Corbett has signed the articles of
agreement to fight FitZsimmOns to
finish March 17th, 1897, for a purse of
SI5, 900 to be given by Stuart. The
place of the battle is to be announced
before February 18th. Stuart is to
post a forfeit of s. 900 in the hands of
Richard X Fox or Al Smith, and
Corbett and FItZsimmOus must each
post $1,000 as guarantee of good
faith. Geo. Siler, of Chicago is
named as referee. Corbett signed the
articles before he noticed that they
reserved all the privileges for Stuart
and he became somewhat excited when
he thought of the kiuetscope privi-
leges. After some reelection he finally
said: 81 would not change the article
for million dollars. but if l find out
that Julian or FitzSimmOns get any
share of the privilege money will

There was a verbal scrappiDg match
in last nights city council meeting, in
which Judge Coldwell led the charge
but was finally downed by two thirds
vote that dropped him in the puree
The ''all on account of Eliza in this
case was the adoption of a resolution
calling for a special attorney in the
matter of uncollected taxes.
The meeting opened with a request
from the mayor as to where the city
was at in the matter of the contract
for the renewal of the city hall rental.
The city attorney said he had waited
until after the repairs had been made
so that the document might be made
out with the repairs in view; he would
have the contract ready for the next
meeting of the council.
City Treasurer Fassett made the
council a Christmas present in the

Captain Fassett observed coyly that as
these were the first bonds the city had
ever redeemed, the aldermen might
like to feast their optics on the same.
His honor was afeerd that the cancel
lations might be erased somehow or
somewhere, and the city attorney re-
commended the purchase of a cancell-
ing stamp which would put all his
honor's apprehepsions at rest. Capt.
Fassett casually observed that there
were two bits charges in connection
with the shipment OF the bonds to this
city. DRAW at once a warrant for

mayor doubted the feasibility of leav-
ing the bonds in the city hall, and they
were finally ordered to the safe of the

Australian for dime or nothing.
! The San Francisco injunction was
dissol we'd yesterday, by Judge Sander
son who said:
There is no question in my mind
! that the parties in this engagement or
exhi ibition, or whatever you call it, the
complaint calls it a boxing contest
are 1ndlctable under the laws and
that people who witnessed it are
amenable as law breakers.I understand
these exhibitions are given because
people and police wink at them, but no
court will recognize any such proceed
iugs and there is no doubt in nv mind
this injunction should be dissolved
and it would be dissolved if
action had been taken Immediately
against the garnishment of the purse.''
At last accounts, the much disputed
check had not been called for. and if it
is today, the bank will decline to cash
it pending the disposition OF several
writs of garnishments against the
amount of the purse. It is reported
that Sharkey, Fitz and seconds will be
arrested.
The New York Journal has a strong
editorial on the ethics of prize fighting
in which it intimates that while there
may be nothing Objectionable in two
men trying to outscience each other in
a boxing match, there is decided OBJ
lection to the inevitable associations
that cluster about prize fighting. That
is to say, prize fight seems to be the
signal for the congregation at that
locality of all possible kinds of disre-
putabIe characters whose presence
tends to debauch the morals of the
community. There does not seem to
be any way of avoiding this.
