Bill Turned Down.
A communication was read from
Henry Harding, colored, who com
planned that the bill of his wife for
$3.50 for services as nurse at the de-
tention hospital from May IS to June
10 had not been paid. He explained
that his baby was taken i'll with the
disease, and that both he and his
wife were quarantined. The letter
claimed a nurse had been promised,
but that when none appeared, Mrs.
Harding cared for her own child. The
bill was turned down some months
ago, Commissioner Hart, after making
an investigation, reporting against it.
Smallpox Accounts.
The smallpox bills for over $1,000
for 116 cases Of the disease last year,
which have been dormant for some
time, bobbed up again yesterday af-
ternoon, when Mayor Schriver sug-
gested that DR.. G. G. Craig, health
officer, would be glad to know if there
was any good reason why he should
not be paid.
None except that we are short of
money" answered Commissioner Rud-
gren.
so is DIR. Craig" put in Commits
sioner Bear.
Commissioner Rudgren explained
that the city had some pressing claims
to meet at the present time, including
$4,000 payment to the American-La-
France company on the motor fire
auto He declared that no arrange
ment had been made with the banks
to carry the city, except for actual
current running expenses, and that he
understood the attitude of the banks
was against heavy loans to the city
until the tax levy has been spread
upon the records which will not be
until December.
81 suggest that we give DR.. Craig a
check and let him take a chance on
cashing it," was the mayors proposal.
as there any objection to that?"
YES" replied Commissioner Rud-
gren, unless the money situation loos-
ems I'D so we can do the same with all
our bills"
Commissioner Hart suggested a
voucher would be proper.
A voucher WOulQ De Satisfactory.
but it ought to bear interest" stated
DR.. Craig.
I'll never vote for voucher of that
kind" announced Commissioner Rud-
gren.
Paid by Voucher.
A resolution providing that vouch-
er. payable Dec. 1, be issued for the
sum of s1,627.5O. bearing interest at
the rate of 5 per cent from the time
of the allowing of the claim on March
81, carried. Commissioners Rudgren
and Reynolds voting no. Although the
bill was allowed months ago. no mon
ey has been available with which to
pay II.
