street; only the situation is worse in
this way. that the manure embank-
ments are soaked to the seepage point
and water from the flood is now run
ming over the roadway that hitherto
has been comparatively dry. The wag-
ons hauling dirt and manure were go

that between that. the mosquitoes and
fsars OF further disaster. the unfortu-
nate citizens of that section of the city
didn't sleep much. The Tribune has yet
to learn of anything out of the way
with City creek. or that the residents
of the Third precinct have any just
cause for complaint at all. Taxpayers
to the number OF 1873 had signed peti-
ton last evening, to the city council,
urgently requesting much needed as
sistance from the municipality. A large
committee from the precinct VIII walt
on the council Thursday night, to see
what can be done.
