More Because ApprOpria-
ton Was Too Small.

lice Michael Flynn from $50 to $50 a
month. 1t was agreed that the chief
was deserving of more money because

is only $4,000 for this year, and it is
intended to put on two more policemen
after January 1.
Policeman Charles Perl vas made a
roundsman, and his salary was in
creased from $50 to SOS a month.
Committeeman Joseph Weston want
ed the salaries of all the policemen
raised, but the other members, while
they admitted hat the men deserved
more money, thought because of the
small appropriation that nothing could
be done at this time.
Police Justice John ]. Connell was
next in line for a raise, and his salary

BIDDERS FOR
$4,000 |RVNGTON
SEWER BOND ISSUE
Council Makes Award and Hears
Complaints on As
SesSments.

At the regular semi-monthly meeting
of the Irvington Town Council, held
in the Town Hall last night, bids were
received and opened for an issue of
sewer bonds to the amount of $55, 900,
to run thirty years at Az per cent, and
payable at the Merchants National
Bank, of this city. There were nine
bids; A. B. Leach & Co, of 149 Broad
way, New York city, was the highest
bidder, their figure being LOLA, and the
issue was awarded to them. Other
bids were: John B.. Everett & Co., New
York, 1.07077; Kunz Bros, New York,
1.O691; j. S. Ripple, this city, 1.0616: r.
n. Grant & Co., New York, 1.05321;
O'Connor & Koehler, New York, 1.05199;
Merchants National Bank, this city,
1.0465; Irvington National Bank, 1.0422.
and the H. L. Crawford Company, New
York, 1.03S13.
A hearing was given on the ASSESS
ments for grading T~wenty-first street,
and several property-owners on that
~thoroughfare were present with objec-
tions. The street was originally opened
by private parties, and several dwell
ings were erected between Madison
"a III DllAA avenue "A WCCL~
erly side of this street is very low and
is drained by a private pipe. which runs
in a zigzag course and emptles into the
storm sewer in Springfield
The objections raised are that the re-
grading has injured the property, in
asmuch as the drain is inadequate to
take the storm water. Councilman La
comb stated that if Madison avenue
were cut down and extended to Spring
field avenue. the difficulty might be
overcome. He said that a mar had
been made about four years ago for
this purpose, and that the council was
only waiting for the right of way from
the property-owners to go on with the
work. On motion of Mr.. Lacomb the
hearing was continued.
1t was decided to issue school bonds
to the amount of 1927, 900. to run fifty
years, at AZ per. cent, payable at the
Merchants National Bank. this city,
and to provide a sinking fund for the
same purpose on a 1 per cent. basis.
A remonstranee was received from
the Public Service Corporation against
the use of extra lights in h Town
Hall. The company complained that
the town was using e~ighty-one lights,
it was entitled to the use of only
forty-two. These lights are furnished
