Ordinances.

Chairman Mccormick presided over
this body and the following business
was transacted:
The report of the special committee
On amendments to the rules of Council
came up first, and after some discus
sion and a little opposition were adopt
ed. The new rules, Nos. % and 20, as
has been heretofore explained, are de-
signed to prevent the "r~ailroading" of
franchise ordinances through Council.
All such measures must be introduced
by a member of Council and referred to
the proper committees. If read, the
reading shall be for information only,
and such reading shall not constitute a
first reading. By a change in rule No.
33 all committees must report back on
ali matters of business sent. to them,
which will put a stop to the pigeon
holing of business, frequently the case
in the past.
The Fitzsimmons resolution, calling
for such measures as will COMPEL the
B. & o. to place a safety gate at Main
and Sixteenth streets, was discussed at
considerable length and finally tabled,
and a resolution was adopted to have
the City Solicitor enforce the existing
ordinance on the subject.
Several other matters were discussed,
and among those acted upon was a fav-
orable recommendation of the new
schedule of prices and weights for city
scales. The leading items on the new

the new glass house, the following men
were appointed to solicit subscriptions
for stock: John r. Cow, August Shick.
Geo. Walters and o. P. Mason. They

the solicitors will start out and hustle.
Already S23, 900 has been subscribed

citizens, and especially the business
men, should give a helping hand, for
the plant will employ about two hun
dred people.
Tonight the Council will meet and
probably one of the most important
acts will concern the new city build
ing. Council hopes to have all ar
rangements made, so that when spring
comes all will be ready to start on the
construction. Another important action
should be taken, that of the G. & P.
crossing south of the depot. Two ac-
cidents occurred there last week, and
it is a dangerous place. The least the
city could ask would be a Waterman,
but the real need is gates.
A number of the poultry fanciers Of
the city will exhibit their stock at the
poultry show at St. Clairsville, COM

The Benwood Furnace Company, Of
this city, is probably turning out iron
cheaper than any other furnace in the
valley. Some time ago an ore Of good
quality by the name of Bermussa was
tried by nearly all the furnaces in the
valley. and the result gwas that sew
eral furnaces had explosions of a very
costly nature. This ore is about 20
per cent. cheaper than any other ore.
owing to its explosive power. In this
furnace they are using about three
fourths of this ore and are having no
trouble, making a big saving to the
company.
