NOTHING FOR SEWERS
g. oxcm REFUSES TO CONFER IN
THE AprnopRrArrox OF $4,000.
THE VOTE STOOD EIGHT TO EIGHT.
: scugh Members Present TO
Pass the Mcasurc-schooI Matter
Not Mentioned-Minor business
Transacted ut the Meeting.

Ane Common Council met in special
session last night to consider the reso-
luton from the Board OF Aldermen APP
propriating $4,000 In per cent bonds OF
the city for sewer purposes. The result
OF the meeting was the defeat of the
measure. II required twenty votes TO
pass II and only sixteen were present.
The vote was ayes and noes. Those
In attendance were: President Caskie,
and Messrs. Briggs, Cottrell. Foster, Har-
relson, Jones, CARRIER, Mosby. Neale,
Noble, Rountree. Ryan, o. A. Hawkins,
Whalen, Witte, and Woody
Clerk August read the call for the
meeting and the resolution making the
appropriation. and there then followed
quite a lengthy debate upon the merits
of the proposition.
Mr.. Briggs opened the discussion by
saying that he was opposed to increasing
the bonded debt of the city for any pur-
pose He thought that the income Of
the city next year would be sufficient to
provide for an appropriation for sewers
necessary to be repaired or built.
MIR. Foster said he disiked TO vote for
an increase of the bonded debt, but the
necessity of funds for sewer purposes
was absolutely to protect the city's in
terests and with the light before him he
would vote for the resolution.
THE RESOLUTION DEFEATED.
Mr.. CARRIER explained that he was in
favor of the resolution, as it was appa-
rent to him that the funds were going
to be put to a purT use which was urgent
and necessary. Mr.. Neale said he had
always been opposed TO issuing bonds,
but with the information which had been
given him as to the urgent need
Of sewers, he believed that funds should
be provided.
The roll was then called, and the reso-
luton was lost by the following vote
Ayes-Messrs. Foster, CARRIER. Noble,
Neale. Mosby, Ryan, Whalen, and
Noes-Messrs. Briggs, Cottrell, Harrel-
son, Jones. Rountree. o. A. Hawkins,
Woody, and Caskie-S
On motion of Mr. Harrelson, the rules
were suspended TO consider the resolu-
ton adopted by the Board Of Aldermen
at it's last meeting, to pay 500 to w. 5.
Peyton for the privilege of running a
sewer across his lot on Fifth street be-
tween Jackson and Duval streets, an
agreement having been duly signed and
entered into in this matter.
The resolution was concurred in.
The Common Council then adjourned
the school appropriation matter not
having been mentioned during the ses"
sion.
Mr.. Caskie appointed Messrs. II. A. Har-
relson. E. NJ Foster, Albert Witte, and
julius A. Hobson members of the Con-
ference Committee from the Common
Council to consider the ordinance to pro-
vide for method of accounting a PEN
atty on city taxes.

FIRE In STEAMSHIPS.
MAKES THINGS QUITE LIVELY AT
NEWPORT NEWS.
Two Cotton Cargoes Ablnze-rhe
German ship AIbnno and the
british ship Governor-The Work
of Extinguishing the Flames.

NEWPORT NEWS. VA, November
Special 1.-Two foreign steamships,
with their cargoes on fire, have served to
make things exceedingly lively along
the water front to-day. Hardly had the
German steamship Albano left her dock
this morning, bound for Hamburg, when
her cargo Of cotton was discovered to be
on fire. The Chesapeake and Ohio tugs
HELEN and Hinton went TO the ships
aid. and after two hours hard pumping
by them the flames were extnguished.
II will be necessary, however, TO dis
charge the cargo in order TO make sure
mat the fire is out Captain Koch to-
night stated that he believed that the
FIRE originated in a lot OF cotton which
was brought TO the ships side last eve
ming from Norfolk This, he says, was
formerly aboard the Mayfeld, which put
INTO that port on fire some weeks ago.
Marine underwriters are now at work
on the case.
Al about noon to-day the English
steamship Governor, Captain Goldman
arrived at quarantine with her cargo
burning at a brisk rate. The ship lies
In the stream with her cargo on fire,
although at o'clock it was reported that
tine flames were under control. The
Governor left Galveston on the Sd in
slant. bound for Liverpool. She carries
a cargo of ! 800 bushels of grain and 300
bales OF cotton. Two days ago the
FIRST mate reported to Captain Goldman
that he believed the cotton was on fre'
and a hasty inspection served to con-
firm his suspicious. The blaze was IN the
main hold. There was nothing TO DO
but put about and enter here. The
steam pipes were constantly playing on
the burning cargo. and when at noon
to-day the ship put into quarantine, the
fire was practically under control, al
though not extingushed by any means
CAPTAIN Goldman came ashore imme-
diately. He said that he believed the
fire was out but that the cargo was
thoroughly soaked with water, ana that
Il would have TO be discharged. Inc
Chesapeake and Ohio tug-boats left the
ships side at a little after o'clock but
the engines were still pumping steam INTO
the hold. Captain Goldman couid
1--WE no explanation Of the fires origin.
lie said that there was no possible
chance for fire TO reach the cotton where
n was stored. and expressed the beliet
that spark must have struck one OF
the bales as II was being put aboard at
Galveston.
