CABINET MEETING
OF CITY HEADS
Chiefs Of Departments Meet
to Talk Over Public
Utility Service.

Mayor Lapham, Commissioners
Johnson and Sans, Street c minis
sioner l. ,fgren, FIRE Chief Mitchell,
DR.. w. E Rpyster, Health { tfi :er,
Guy Eoglneer Pratt, Chief of Police
Grady, City Attorney S. c. b own,
E ecllic Light Superintendent
B 4ker, Gas Foreman Flanneiy all
f whom represent the heads OF
heir departments met in the city
nall building Wednesday evening at
five O'Clock to discuss the city
affairs, particularly as regards the
Public Utility service.
Mayor Lapbam started the talk
oy asking that everyone, and
es ,ecially the Street Commissioner
and the City Engineer who have
better chances than most for OBJ
serving the city service, should
make il a point to report whatever
leakage they find or know of to the
City Clerk. The leakage should be
cut down to a minimum and this
could be done better if all work to
gether on it. There are twenty five
miles of low pressure line and
six and one quarter miles of
nigh pressure so it is not
practicable for the foreman of the
department to get over 1t as often
as would be fer the best. Other de-
partments are spread out to cover
as much ground in proportion and
the same difficulty confronts the
other fore men as well.
w. F. Sans, Commissioner of
Finance then asked that If 1t were
not going to be possible to cut
down the street and water forces.
He spoke of the deficit in the water
fund which had been decreased be-
tween thousand and fifteen hun
dred dollars during the summer,
but was still over drawn by over
three thousand dollars. This is a
deficit that may be paid off by the
first of the year in some manner.
So Mr.. Sans appealed to the fore.
man of the departments to cut down
expenses as much as possible.
City Engineer Pratt said that in
couple of weeks after all of the
water pipes had been lowered to
below frost line, he would dispense
with the services of five OF his men
and retain two. LofgreD, Stree
Commission, said that soon as the
cutters on fifteen or sixteen mile:
of paved streets had been cleaned
he would also be able TO get along
without some of his men.
Gas Foreman FlanEery reported
that the gas mains in the east felc
were being taken up and that there
was yet two miles and quarter o
| it to be done. He reports that thu
leakage is less than 1t has beer
heretofore.
Chief of Police Grady spoke o
the need of firearms in the Police
department, saying, "the OILY
weapons that the Chanute Police
Department has are three horse
pistols about fourteen years DID,
II is Ikelv that the Commission
will see that better equipment il
