FIGURE CITY PURSE
STRINGS FOR 1915
Commissioners Meet to Compile
Budget of Expenses For
New Year

City Council this afternoon met in
executive session and began the prepa-
ration of the 1915 budget ordinance.
Upon the figuring of the City Com
missioners will depend the mill rate
for the coming year. While none of
the departmental heads would talk
of the possible millage, 1t was the gem
eral opinion in municipal circles that
the present rate of nine and a half
mills would remain.
That there will be no increase is
considered certain; whether or not it
will be possible to lop off half a mill
is uncertain. 1t is the general opin-
ion however, that the municipal purse
for. the next twelve months will be in
better shape If no reduction is made.
All the departmental heads submit
ted their estimates this afternoon and
for n couple of hours the councilmen
went over the figures. The data will
all be compiled into an ordinance to
be submitted for the first time at
Tuesdays regular meeting of Council
BY that time, it is hoped, that the ex-
act status of the city's financial situa-
tion to date can be ascertained so that
the question of 1915 maintenance may
be settled.
$117,106 For Street Department
At the last meeting of Council all
the departmental estimates were sub
mitted, with the exception of the fig
ures of Commissioner w. II. Lynch.
superintendent of streets and public
improvements. His tentative estimate
was made known to-day. 1t calls for
an approximate expenditure of s117.-
LOG. For the present year, a nine
months year, $50, ,561.25 had been ap-
propriated. The 1918 highway de-
partment budget called for S1O5,-
i035.16.
The principal new items in Mr..
Lynch's budget are $2,500 for an an
tomobile truck for use in hauling as
phalt and other materials for street
pairs and $1,000 for new reinforced
concrete railing posts on the Mulberry
street bridge.
Wants an Auto Truck
The auto truck will save much team
and man hire after the city's own re-
pair plant goes into operation in April
New posts are being substituted on tho
Mulberry street bridge as fast as the
cold weather cracks the concrete of
the present ones. Since the repairing
work was first begun on the viaduct
SO posts were replaced. There are 5a7
posts all told. 14S of which are now
in need of repair.
Commissioner Lynch asks for s5S.-
600 for sweeping the streets in 1915.
For the present year he had SAT. 900
In 1913, S53,364.51 was provided. In
the two years. however, at least twelve
miles of additional paving have been
put down. An additional thousand dol
lars for inspectors is asked
The commissioner also wants 81 .OO0
to conduct the new repair plant from
April / on, as the city's contract with
Alderman C. P. Walter expires MT
tht time. The sum that will be needed
to repair the streets under Mr. Wal
ters contract for the first quarter or
1915 totals S3,S75.
