 Yesterday pursuant to the motion passed at the Council meeting on Monday night, yesterday afternoon, the City Attorney rendered Charles Milot city auditor the sum of $500 for his services in that capacity. It will be recollected that Milot put i1 bill for $350 which was vetoed by the Mayor and the Council then set $500 as proper compensation for auditing the books. Milot declined to accept the preferred fee and stat ed his intention to sue for the full amount in the courts. He claims that to have an outside auditor come in and examine the books would cost the city between $750 or 5000 and as he worked three hund- red and fifty eight hours on the books, he thinks his demand is more than reasonable He is furthermore irate with Councilman Ross whom he claims came to him and said that he would try and get four members together to pass the bill, before the meeting was called. "He passed, and his failure to vote defeated th9 motion to pay me" said Milot.
