COLD SNAP RESPONSIBLE.
Causes Lawsuit for So 500 Between
OIyphant Parties.

John j. McAndrew. Of Olyphant, con-
structed "a skating rink ana contracted
with the Olyphant Water company to
supply him with water to flood it. He
borrowed 250 feet of hose, attached it
to a plug aud turned on the water. At
II o'clock at night the Water company
alleges, caused the water to he turned
off and as u result the water froze in
the hose and ruined it,
For this and the damage he sustains
by reason of his being unable to open
the rink he sues the Water company for
$2,500. Hon. c. L. O'Malley of Warren
q Knapp, filed the paper in the suit

INCREASES ASKED.
INCREASES.

The greatest increases appear in the
street commissioners fire parks, po-
lice and city assessors departments,
respectively.
In the street department the $2GOlS
extra money asked for Includes $1,000
extra for cleaning asphalt pavement,
$4,000 for bridge near the Driving
park, $4,000 for expenditure on the
Providence and Abingdon turnpike and
an increase of about $1,000 for ward
street repairs.
Chief Hickeys demand for 2l,3l4.S2
m re than last year for the fire depart
ment seems justifiable. He must have
it to purchase at $500 each four new
combination hose and chemical appara-
tus for the Nay Aug Excelsior, Colum-
ba and Relief companies; salaries for
ten additional permanent men, and for
a stock supply Of hose,
THREE CITY PARKS.
Comparatively nothing was appro-
priated for the three city parks last
year. The $4,S69.32 granted did little
beside keeping the large areage pre-
sentable. For $24 4047.5O the suggestions
contained in the landscape plans now
in the possession of the commissioners
can be carried out.

The city bank case which threatened
to occupy Judge Purdys time during
the remainder of the present term of
common pleas came to sudden ter
mination yesterday. When court was
called, one of the Jurors, Edgar Doud,
a carpenter of Moosc, was found to he
absent. After waiting for him some
time a telephone message was sent to
MOosic, but no response came. Then
Deputy Sheriff Reese was dispatched
to hunt him up. At II o'clock word
came that Mr.. Doud was sick abcd with
diphtheria and that his wife was then
on her way to court with a Doctors GER
tiiicate to that effect.
The defendants counsel wanted to
proceed with eleven jurors, but the
prosecution would not agree. Then an
offer was made to continue the case be-
fore Judge Purdy without a jury, but
again the plaintiffs refused to ac-
quiesce. Thereupon juror was with
drawn and the case continued to the
next term of common pleas There be-
ing no other case open court was ad-

at Il conclusion inside of an hour. What
the conclusion was will not be known

! fense. in his closing speech openly and
| unreservedly alleged that the plaintiffs
We're guilty of fraud and that by rea-
| son of their fraud his client could not
| be guilty of trespass. 1t appears that

| to Seidman & Co. Seidman x Co. failed
| to pay for them and an attachment was
| issued against them. Constable Miller
being directed to serve it. When he
located the goods he found them in the
| possession of KaDlan &, Co., who
! claimed ownership on the strength of
! a bill of sale made out by G. H. So
per, who bought the goods at sheriff S
| sale. When Constable Miller went to
make his levy he found the door barred
against him. He made the levy with
the assistance of an ak. This is what

BY a comparison with last years esu-
mate you will observe an increase OF
ST., ,6S7.
Enclosed you will also find a statement
of appropriations, transfers, disburse-
ments and balances from April 6, 1886,
to Ian. l. 1897.
The statement of revenues to the eX-
tent of $2S5 600 means that the estimates
committee must make the appropria-
tion ordinance fit that sum. There is,
however, $S4,624.O3, in reserve to pay
expenses up to April s. That is the
balance referred to in the last para
graph of Controller Robinson's letter
and the portion of it uneXpended on
April will probably be several thous-
and dollars more than his conservative
estimate of $4,000. 1t will probably be
| nearer $4,000, making a total revenue
of $292,0O0
