The question in regard to the ex-
tending OF the pipe to the slaughter
house was then brought Up. Mr..
Benavides, who has made an inyes-
figation Of the situation, reported
that there Is a Pinch water pipe
to the Rio Grande yards and that by
running the pipe from there, instead
OF running it from 7th and Madison
street, the city could save 700 feet
of pipe, and that he thought this the
better way to connect.
1t was then suggested that the
light and water committee take care
OF this matter, which was strongly
objected to by Mr.. Cobolini, who re-
marked that he would rather take
the money out Of his own pocket, II
he had 1t, than TO see The money OF
this committee be touched for this
purpose, adding that he though 1t
would be a very foolish proposition.
He said he knew the necessity for
water at the slaughterho1se, but
did not want to see it ONE out Of
that fund.
Nj. Blackshear made a motion that
the finance committe look into this
matter with the power to act i'm
mediately. This motion was ear
ried.
j. F. Adams and w. c. Craig were
suggested by the mayo to serve on
the board of equalization in the place
OF Mr.. Scott and NJ. ]. Slattery, who
were first appointed. This met the
approval of the council.
A small change in the plans Of
the new market was made, the chair
man of the street and bridge commit
tee being ordered to instruct the
contractors to put on iron cornice OIL
all sides, which will result in an in
crease of cost OF $40.
Corporation Court Report.
The next report was that OF the
corporation court, which was as fol-
lows: 10 case of which 2 are pend
ing: one dismissed. one found not
guilty and 9 fined.
Two OF the fines were suspended
during good behavior. One appealed
to the county court.
Tax Collectors Report.
The report Of the tax collector for
May was read, being as follows
City taxes ........... $471.99
