Mayor Maloney.

The city Of Bryan is paying annual
ly for 21 hydrants the sum of $4,000.
and for electric lights $4,000. making
total of $2S6O.O0. AT least 20 ad-
dltional hydrants are needed, which
will add s150O0O to the annual bill
for water. raising the cost that item
TO SO, 10000 and the total annual cost
to the city for what we have and what
we need to $4,000. These figures
and data were supplied to the Eagle
by Mayor Maloney In response to In
quiry yesterday.
The water and light company owes
the city 100000 on bonds bearing 6
per cent annual interest, and is pay
ing of this Indebtedness In water at
the rate of 81 10000 per year. When
this is paid of the city will have to
pay cash for all the water used, and
this cannot be done without either in
taxation or cutting out part
of the hydrants. Which horn of the
delimma shall we choose? can We af-
ford to cut out ten hydrants? Ought
The tax rate to be increased?
The bonded indbtedness Of the city
1t present is $3450O.OO. Subtracting |

ing bonds the city could issue new
bonds to the extent of$70,00000 with
out increasing the rate of taxation. II
this were done, after taking up the
S2l5O0.O0 of outstanding bonds, there
would be a net cash balance of $4S,-
10000, available for the purchase Of

siding on the E. & P. Railway. had a
mixup with one of the stockholders Of

1t seems Delmas had called a meeting
in the Office of the company of the ex-
perts who recently accompanied him to
the mines, to discuss the result Of their
observations without first notifying the
directors. Watts, learning of this fact,
informed the president of the Delmas
Company. ]. d. Wood. who started to
go to where the meeting Ia being held.
On the way he met Delmas and in
formed him of what Watts had told
him. This greatly aDgered the general
manager. Wood aud Delmas had pro-
ceeded but a short distance on their
way when they met Watts, and hot
words were exchanged between the two
latter. which ended by Delmas landing
a singing blow on Watts head. The
latter then hurried to police headquart-
ers and swore out a warrant charging
Delmas with battery. The latter SUBJ
s%equently pleaded guilty and was fined.
