The city council met in regular ses- sion last night with all members pres ent with the exception of Councilman Blake Nothing of particular import ance transpired unless 1t be considered that the action of Councilman Leh- mann in abrogating to himself the time honored prerogative of Council man Thompson of moving for adjourn ment be considered an event of spe- cial moment Thompson. totally ob- livious of the possibility that his ac- customed function was to be boldly
 usurped, was having quiet little day dream when the mayor remarked that if there was no more business. a mo- ton to adjourn was in order and that's why he lost out for promptly at the close of his honor's remarks Lehman bounced to his feet and with a haste indicating fully his intention to swipe the privilege moved adjournment in tones which scarce concealed his exul- tation Thompson woke up about that time, but, alas, too late to prevent his rival from accomplishing his base pur- pose. And everybody laughed.

After the reading of the minutes, which were approved, there being no other business in the regular order, bills in the sum of s93.45 were sub
 the finance committee for considera- tion. Bills approved by the committee aggregating SS7540 were also read and,
 on motion of Thompson were ordered
 paid.
 Councilman Burgh then brought up the matter of the snow contract, nov ing that the clerk be instructed to call
 for bids for the removal of the snow accumulations for the season. Lomen suggested that isasmuch as the streets were in bad condition already, the
 work of letting the contract should be
 consummated as speedily as possible.
 He suggested that the council hold a
 special meeting in mid week for the closing the contract. The idea met with approval generally but Ross opin- ed that the contract should not be given to one person alone, but should be distributed among the several team ing and transfer firms, who were, he stated, nearly all willing to bid on the
 job. This also seemed to strike the
 ouncilmen as a good suggestion and
 inc mayor remarked that it could be 3one. The substitute motion of Lomen
 that the council meet Thursday even- ing to consider the bids was adopted Lomen then stated that he had been approached by a number of taxpayers who objected to their taxes and he matter attention and proposed to sub- init the names of those who had lodged their complaint with him. The mayor vetoed the proposal by stating that the cases would be referred to the
 nance committee for consideration. The mayor then addressed Charles Mi
 lot, who was present, asking him if he desired to bring any matter before
 he council Milot replied that he had a taxation matter to lay before the
 .iy but would bring it before the finance committee inasmuch as his
 honor had referred like matters to
 them. There being no further busi-
 ness the council then adjourned.

Mr Polister of the Alaska Lighter age Company informs us that we are
 in error in several portions of the
 article published in yesterdays issue respecting the tug Genevieve and also
 that portion relating to the loss of lighter moorings. MT. Pollister states that but two of the buoys are yet in the ice while the tug did not go ashore through any action of the storm but was brought to its present situation in the vicinity of the Standard Oil plant and with the intention of placing the vessel in winter quarters at that point. Apparently the only portion of our story that was founded in strict fact is that section relating to the barge which was in the predica- ment stated. The story was publish ed in accordance with information from sources which were deemed reliable and we regret to find that things had been misrepresented We stand cor rected.
