SPECIAL OLD DEBT LEVY

At the special and adjourned ses-
sion of the city council Tuesday
night estimates were adopted on a
35-cent levy for regular purposes and
a special levy of 10 cents to pay out
standing Indebtedness was approved.

and part of South Chestnut street,
and as contended by the Telegram
all along, it is shown that there will
he sufficient amount of money rails
ed to pay for these and still the rate
of levy proposed is not all that it is
in the power of the council to inn
pose.
Attending the meeting were Coun-
cilmen Connell, Lyden. Anderson,
Robbins, Cork, Ernst. Wood and
Lynch. Mayor Grille and City Clerk
Cole, besides other city officials.
Prosecutions Threatened.
The minutes of the previous spec
ial meeting were read and approved.
Health Oficer Warner said sani-
tary conditions were very bad, ow-
ing to the fact that there was delay
in repairing the crematory and stat
ed that he had been notified by the
county health officer that any and
all who dumped garbage at the Gre
matory site to be left lying there
would be prosecuted. DR.. Warner
and Mayor Grille recommended a
temporary furnace to burn the gar
bage. The matter was discussed and
then left to the health ofHcer, the
sanitation committee and Captain
Callaghan.
