yesterday in considering the Indian APP
preparation bill.
Late in the day Senator-el ect Dick, OF
Ohio, appeared in the Senate chamber,
the first time since his election. He
went direct to Senator Foraker's seat and
was cordially greeted, but their confer
ence was cut short by the announcement
of an executive session, from which Mr..
Dick, not having yet taken the oath of
office, was excluded under the rules of
the Senate.
Outside of few routine matters the
House of Representatives devoted the
entire day to further discussion of the

stands. The petitioners claim that the
Friendship and its friends paid for the
building and are entitled to own it in
foe.
Mr.. Snowden suggested that this
property was set down among the city's
assets &C owned by the city when ar
rangements were made with the bond
holders. The subject was referred.
Mr.. Leadbeater introduced a resOlu-
ton directing the committee on streets
and chief engineer to prepare plans for
the improvement of Washington street
and to call meeting of the residents
and property holders on that street to
consider such plans.
The auditor in his communication to
Council stated that the bills for small
pox expenses had been paid by order OF
Council. Attention has also been called
to the fact that medicines &c. and for
smallpox cases have been paid from out
door poor appropriation, the pay of
guards, andfrom contigences.
Four hundred dollars has been paid
for guards and it is thought the 5000.
will fully cover the amount required to
pay guards for the entire quarantine. In
measure; what is here stated, will ex-
plain the reason for extra appropriations
made to night.
The report was adopted by unanimous
vote.

improve street ways, the committee pro-
posed to show them the plans and ask
them 10 make free contributions. The
subject was referred.
Mr.. Brill introduced an order impos-
ing an annual tax of 5000 on all COM
panies providing and redeeming 'trad-
ing stamps, and $50 per annum en- mer-

of many merchants and he had read ex-
tracts from newspapers showing similar
action elsewhere.
The subject was referred and the board
adjourned.
