about 5000 and needed about 500
more to put the building in habitable
shape for another year or two. c.
b. Rich, the city treasurer, who was
present stated that there was yet
$500 in the library fund from which
the necessary funds might be drawn.
1t was the sense of some that this

the regular expenses during the rest
of the fiscal year. After further dis
cussion the matter was laid on the
table and will be taken up at subse-
quent meeting,
The reports of the officers for the

Twelve arrests had been made during
the month. four arrests had paid up,
seven had sentence suspended and one
was dismissed.
The city weigher. Perry Rogers
reported that $24.60 had been col
lected at the city scales during July.
Mayor Bunting asked City Treasur-
er Rich if he could give the city coun-
Gil any idea as TO whether the war
rant Indebtedness of the city would
be reduced this year. Mr.. Rich stat
ed that the warrant fund and war
rant Indebtedness Will be consider
ably reduced, the water fund especial
ly will be cut down considerably as
the receipts from water rentals have
been much heavier this year. He be
lieves that all funds will show a sat
isfactory increase.
Water Superintendent Vedder. re-
ported to the council that Charles T.
Trobitz, the plumber. was not liv-
ing up to the ordinance in perform
ing plumbing contracts. He stated
that in five cases the ordinance had
not been complied with and that he
had instructed the city clerk to re-
fuse to give Trobitz any further
plumbing permits until he had finish
ed up those jobs in manner that
would meet with the approval of the
plumbing inspector. Supt. Nedder
stated that he had warned the plumb
err time and time again and now II
was up to the council TO take action
in the matter. After much discussion
a motion that the license of Mr.. Tro-
