The proposed sewer on Fifth
street between Milwaukee street and
Western avenue will not be built this
fall. It is understood that M ayOr
Rack will veto the resolution provid-
ing for it, passed at the last council
meeting, owing to there being a doubt
as to the legality of the proceeding;
it is against parliamentary usage to
have member again bring up a
measure which he had introduced and
voted for at the last previous meeting,
as was the case in this instance. Be-
sides the board of public works is of
the opinion that it is too late for any
| more sewer building this season.
