Attorney Charles II. Welles and Major
Mr.. Williams was to be paid in month
ly installments the first Of each month
for five-story brick building in Dock
ash place and Seventh street. He was
paid in full, but the installments were
delayed each a week or two beyond the
first of the month. His suit is now to
recover 1896 interest on the money de-
layed. The defense urges that the
building was SO poorly built that the
arches spread and iron beams had to
be substituted it was to be finished on
March I, and they didn't get 1t till
November. that the workmanship was
bad, lime being used for cement. The
case will be resumed today.

Mr.. Kelly argued that quorum was

elected because majority of all of the
members of council were not present.
Mr.. O'Malley produced a letter from

Another horror is added to that fatal
tenement Basement on the corner of
Ninth and Scranton streets. Last week
foreigner died in the howell under
starvation's circumstances,
During the closing hours of Satur-
day night a woman died from neglect
and disease. The inmates of the house,
all men. took no action regarding the
dead woman. The body was allowed to
lay on a few pieces of boards in the
same position in which death left it.
The men smoked and chatted as un-
concerned as II the house was u parlor,
not a morgue. Lieutenant Williams,
Of the West Side precinct. heard Of the
death and Of the consequent neglect.
He entered the house; the dead body
was found in a room filled with to-
bacco smoke.
DR.. Paine, of the poor board, was
summoned. He could do nothing last
night and the corpse was allowed to
remain in the hovel until today, when
it will receive attention. The base
ment is a foul smelling place. Chickens
dwell in equal filth with the human
beings.
Consumption was the final cause Of
the woman's death. She was utterly
| neglected and seems friendless
