above the surface of the street and
that was not true of one street only
but was a general condition in every
street with macadam pavement. lie
thought that the streets were left in
that condition by plumbers and other
excavators He said that all the cutters
of the streets in the central part of
the city should be cleaned of leaves or
it would be impossible to keep the
streets dry this winter. He said that
last week he spent $3.50 in cleaning
streets and could spend as much more
every week for the rest of the year at
work that was absolutely necessary.
City Engineer Kelly recalled a cir
cumstance in Mayor Sargent's adminis-
tration when there was no money to
pay for repair of bridges and said that
at that time Mr., Sargent looked up
some cases in New York where the
mayor had been sustained by the courts
in having necessary work done for
which there was no appropriation.
Director Troup remarked that if a
snoWstorm should occur now, such as
occurred last November, the snow
would have to lay on the streets, as
there was no money in his department
to pay for the removal of it. He said
that if people wanted these things at
tended to they must pay more than an
eighteen-mill tax. He said that of the
$36,460 of the appropriation for clean
ing streets spent between January l
and July last $4,000 went to pay for
removal of snow during January and
February. In November and December
last the removal of snow cost about $6,
900.
The board of finance later in the ses-
sion decided to hold a special meeting
tonight to endeavor to find some way
of providing money to do the work nee
essary in Mr. Troup's department
