A resolution, providing for the

son and Washington street was in.
,roduced, and August 4. fixed to hear
protests.
An ordinance was passed holding
the property owner liable to fine or
imprisonment for permitting rubbish
to accumulate after being notified by
the fire chief to remove the same, as
was an ordinance prohibiting the sale
OF cane torpedoes and like noisy ex.
rlosives.
The request of F. o. Gurtler for
permission to open the food gates on
Fry creek, under the O.-W. tracks,

The city attorney was directed to
report on procedure to force the
filing of a block in East Aberdeen,
the property Of Samuel Benn.
The claim of Hotel Washington for
refund of over charge for water was
set for determination at the next
meeting.
Police Judge Glen Snider reported
the collection Of fines in June amount
ing to 1888.
Mayor Phillips admonished the de-
partments to observe strict economy,
and suggested frequent consultations
with the finance committee, in order
that the council and chiefs may have
