Before the council adjourned Alder
man Krook requested President Behnke
to make at least one change in the make
up of the committees, declaring that
he would positively refuse to serve on
any committee with Alderman Hamann.
That unless Hamann was taken off of
the light and water committee it would
be necessary for him to appoint another
chairman of that body. Mr.. Krook
said he wanted it understood that he
bore no ill-feeling toward the First
ward alderman, but that life was too
short to be compelled to work for a year
with him, and he simply wouldn't dosit..
After a few brief exchanges of words
the council adjourned. r. 81. :-..*.
Tuesday Evenings Double Session
Tuesday evenings meeting was en-
livened for the spectators, at. least.
There Were really two meetings, the old
council calling to order, finishing, up
that which had been left over from the
session of April 4, and adjourning sine
die. Just, before the final adjournment,
Wd. Eibner, the only retiring alderman
asked permission from the chair to make
brief statement, in which he said, that.
certain statements had beeno made
during the campaign preceding the; city
election, which he wished to have cleared
up before he left the bodyof which he
had long been a member =. :ss's'&E5
Mr.. Eibner prefaced his remarks by
thanking the members of the council
for their kindness and cooperation in
conduct of the business of the city. He
also thanked the press, for the courteous
manner in which he had been treated.
Eibner's Statement
Continuing, Mr.. Eibner said:
About a week ago someone circulated
report in this city to the effect that I
had during the past winter used Steam
heat from the city and not paid for it,
This report seems to have gained a
wide circulation and it has placed me
and my family in most unpleasant
situation. :. -, :-- -. ..s
II realize that during a campaign, for:
office things are said and done that a
person must overlook. This rumor is
of such character, however, that I feel
I must set myself right before the com
munity. II this matter We're one that
would be forgotten : in few: days or.
OF such character however, that !. feel
would be forgotten in a few days or
week I would pay no attention to it.
I am afraid however, that rumor of
this kind is one that will not be forgotten,
and I feel that the parties who started it
have done me great injustice.
.- Yours truly,
Wd. Eibner.
Exenorated by Directors
Mr.. Eibner then produced letter
signed by the directors of the New Uln
Heating company, as follows:
