At tho meeting of the City Council Tuesday the committee on Water Works made the following report: committee on Water Works to whom was referred tho matter of the purchase of the Water Works by the city of Alton, would re- spectfuliy report that your committee las had a conference and consultation with Henry Watson, President of the Alton Water Works Company. Mr. Watson places tho probable price of the Water Works at from to $150,000. Mr. Watson states the probable terms of tho sale of such works to the city would be: First, That the city of Alton assume payment of tho outstanding Water Works bonds amounting to the sum of $40,000, the Water Works being held in by Charles A.

Caldwoll, as rustee, for the payment of said bonds, ivo, ton and fifteen years after date. Second, That the Water Works Co. would be willing, if a sale be effected, to take $40,000 cash; the of purchase money to be paid in yearly installments, in such sums nnd at such rate of interest on the different pay. ments as may bo agreed upon by the respective parties. Tho Water Works Co.

reserving tho title of said works until fully paid for by the city of Alton Third That tho yearly income do-, by the Water Woijks Company from said-Works Is about $15,000. Your committee would further report hat if tho Water Works are purchased by the city of Alton in January A. 188C, tho County and State assessment upon which tho five per cent constitu- limitation will bo estimated, and beyond which the city of Alton cannot become indebted for any purpose, is five per cent estimated upon such assessment, $89,766.20. The present indebtedness of the city of Alton, $01,880.24. Tho amount to which tho debt of tho city of Alton may be increoss od is the difference between $89,766,20 and which Is $28,804.96.

Your Committee makes no recommendations, but submits tho above facts for tho consideration and action of tho City Council of the city of Alton. All ot which is respectfully submitted. FHKD W. I10PPE, THOMAS PATES, JOHN Water Works Committee. ALTON, Sept.

8th, 1886. The council postponed action on the matter until tho next meeting and it will, probably, not bo heard of again. While no one would have any objection to tho olty's purchase of tho water worku, providing it could bo done without Increasing the public debt or raising taxation, still the constitutional difficulty the way is insurmountable, at present, and there is no use in the ooun oil's wasting further time or thought over tho question.
