annual report
In the report Mr.. Heyer called at
tentiOn TO the fact that on account OF

dent to carry larger reserve than

Mr., Heyer refers to the regular meet

TO GALL An EXTRA SESSION
OF Aldermen to Consider the Wat
erWorks Matter
Meeting VIII be Held Next Week
Committee wiz Make Report Of Re-
fusaa OF Clarendon Company to Ac-
cept its Offer Question Then ND
tn Aldermen

Mayor Springer has expressed his in
tention of calling An extra session
of the board of aldermen some time
next week to receive the full report oi
the waterworks committee and take
whatever action that seems to be wisa
after that report has been received.
The terms of the report following
the Tuesday night meeting of the
board can almost be expressed in ad-
vance
The committee viii report the ne
gotiations conducted with the Clarsn-
don Ftaterworks Company and the OF
fer of S125, 900 TOR that plant Taking
the address of Hon. John D. Bethany,
counsel Of company as authoritative
they will report that the offer was fiat
ly refused, the Clarendon company con-
sidering that amount entirely to
small to think of their accepting it.
The committee will in all likelihood
recommend that the board stand pat
and that not a dollar be added to the
offer made TO the company. They will
probably suggest that the board take
action looking to the floating of the
waterWorks bond issue, SO that the
city can start as soon as possible on
the erection of it's own plant
At the meeting which is to be held
it is conceded that representatives
of the waterWOrks company will again
appear before the board and offer
counter propositions, along general
lines like those offered Tuesday night
and it will be open to the board of
aldermen to vote to. reopen negotia-
tions to accept the committees re-
port and take action toward establish
ing a new plant.
What course the aldermen will pur-
sue cannot be foretold, but it is sig
nificant that the offer made to the COM
pany was decided on unanimously at
the joint meeting of the aldermen and
the board of audit and finance and that
the sum of St25,C0O was considered at
that time a very fair and liberal Of
Ter
In his address before the board Tues
day night Mr.. Bellamy spoke of the
contract which exists between the city
and the Clarendon company, whiC
still mas four years to run and he con-
tended that under the terms of that
contract the city could not legally es-
-ablish another plant. The query then
arises as to whether the Clarendon
company would take legal steps to pre-
vent the city from establishing it's or
plant
The Waterworks question is a sub
lect OF general discussion in the city
and further development will be watch
ed with increasing interest by the cit
liens. .-
