Street Commissioner Flatly Contradicted by City Engineer Accused Being "tTired" by the Mayor. The mayor and a majority of the ildcrmen disagreed Saturday night is to the necessity of providing sewers in streets before paving is done ind project of the boar.d of local mprovemcnts for doing about one nindrcd blocks of street paving was knocked out until the aldermen had heir way, and it was provided that sewers, must 1 be built in alt streets to paved, wherever practicable. Be- jte the assistant city engineer works all day and late at night and all day Sundays and the Mayor said the city engineer has the tired feeing occasionally," Mr.

Fitzgerald noved that the assistant be paid $40 a month instead of $25. The aldermen did not a man working nore than eight hmtrs a day for them. The council entered a mandate that icreafter no streets shall be torn up iy any corporation, firm or individ- tal until a permit has been secured and a bond to put the streets in good condition again is filed. This was aimed especially at the Alton Gas Company, whom the Mayor accused of showing the most careless disregard for the streets in tearing them up A franchise was granted to the Fos- tcrburg and Upper Alton Farmers' Telephone line. An ordinance for- lidding unnecessary switching on Piasa street was adopted, the Mayor saying 'it was worthless.

Twice dur- ng the session was the veracity of Street Commissioner impugned. The first time he declared that he had jcen authorized to sign Mr. Fceney's name to nn order for 'Ifiinii which Mr. Fecncy doi'i -'I Cop- pingrr ilicn admitted 11 -v '-impression he had received authority might lave been born of his being out many hours after the curfew. The second time, his statement that he had notified the gas company to repair certain streets was flatly contradicted by a letter from Mr.

J. F. Porter, who said he had received no intimatioh hat 'the streets torn up were in bad condition. Protests against paving Dry street ind Main street because there is no scwcr there were presented. Joseph and Edward Brodcrick asked to be reimbursed for damages caused by flooding of their property on Belle -trect, due to the stopping of Piafa at the gas works.

H. B. Hunter asked the council to defer building his sidewalk until the ground would settle enough to admit of him building the walk. The corporation counsel reported that the city of Alton owns absolutely old Washington school property, at.Stfite House square, as it was pur- ch'asediin 1856 and the city holds a deed. Mr.

Holdcn moved property be sold, and an or- diriance to that effect will be introduced next month. The board of local improvements rdpxjrted in favor of doing extensive paving improvement on streets nam- jjn a resolution of Mr. Schoeffler, 100 blocks, and asked the authorize the board to vto- necessary assistance to do prc- linjiitiary work ofr the paving. (V point was raised that there was no provision for sewers in the report an 1 public sentiment is in favor of 35 irig sewers before paving is done. Mi.

Sparks advocated the inclusion of Stitl, Williams and Fourth streets tHe schene for improvement. The rcdojt of the board of local improvements was not adopted, because or th3 absence of provisions for The motion was made that the report' be'referred back to the board oHocal improvements to recommend sowers' in 'all streets mentioned wherein it is possible to build sewers if not already bitllt; also to include Fourth from State to William, from William to Seventh. The city and street superintendent hey had found a half dozen quan. -ompanics quarrying in public streets and that the city has ho contract or agreement with refill the excavations. The claims reported favorably on allowing Joseph Buddc $10 for dimi- agc done to his property and unfavorably on the claim of E.

S. Ncwsom for damages. The ordinance commltte an amendment to the saloon license ordinance, making the petition of a majority of property owners in ablocfe necessary only in cases of new applications for sajoon licenses and docs not refer to present saloojis. Mr. Noonan objected on the ground that, the amendment would militate against starting new saloons, would encourage landlords in present saloons' to raise rents and would create saloon building monoply.

A motion to table the ordinance was tost and the ordinance was adopted, An ordinance was adopted sing a penalty for unnecessary switching on Piasa street. Mr. Noonan objected to it and declared that it was intended for the comfort of thcj itl- rtiates of five or six dives on Piasa street, in order not to disturb their quiet. The amended franchise ordinance for the Fosterburg telephone was read for the second time. The amendment forbids the transfer of the franchise to any other company.

Dahlstrom's motion to lay over the ordinance another month was lost and the franchise was granted by a vote of II to 2. Ordinances were presented for a sewer in Fourth street from a point 165 feet east of Oak street to Spring street, to make a reassessment for the Third street sidewalks built between Shields and Cherry and on Fourth street between State and Mill streets; repealing an ordinance establishing the grade of Oak street at an alley between Fourth and Fifth streets. J. F. Porter declined to pay $114.50 for repaying Main street, saying his company was never notified to make repairs an the street of damage left after gas mains were laid.

On motion the bill was referred to the lights committee to investigate. The street commissioner said that the ordinance required permits for open ing up streets by pipe-layers had never be.cn observed. Motion carried that notice be given the gas company and all others to cease tearing up streets until they give bond for restoration of streets to good condition. J. C.

Mcnch and John Uohs asked permission to build a private- sewer in Franklin street. Granted. Alderman Fitzgerald introduced a resolution instructing the ordinance committee to present an ordinance regulating the speed of automobiles in the city. Mr. Rue offered a resolution for building of sidewalks on the north side of Eliot avenue from Bloomfield to North streets.

The following-was the report of the board of local improvements, naming the streets to be paved and sewered: The board of local improvements reported favorably and recommended that ordinances be drawn and sub- mined to the city council for passage for the improvement of the following streets: with vitrified brick: Main street from Belle to State street; Bluff street from Mam to State street; Eighth street from Alby street to Henry street; Spring street from Second -Union street; Union street from Henry street to Vandalia Road; Belle street from Ninth street to City Limits; Dry street from Main to State street; Alby street from Front to Twelfth street; Alton street from Second to Fourth street; Market street from Third to Sixth street; George street from Second to Sixth street; Langdort street from Second to Twelfth street; Oak street from Second to Fifth street; Cherry street from alley between Front and Second street to Fifth street; Third street from Piasa to Henry street; Fourth street from Market to Henry street; Fifth street Market to Henry street; Third, street from Ridge to Second street; Alton street from Eighth to Twelfth street; East Fourth street from Ridge to Cherry street; and for a sewer in Eighth street to commence between George and Langdon street and down Eighth to Alby street.
