The night was hot, and a dark cloud in the northwest admonished the timid that a storm would likely sweep over the city before ten o.clock. These circumstance did not prevent however, the sewerage show from drawing a good crowd. Before the city fathers began to assemble the visitor were present in large number. The window of the ball were fuU of men. Head and other portions of human anatomy could be seen protruding from these openings as the councilinen approached the hall for duty.

At 8 o'clock the Mayor took the chair and the Clerk called the roU. All the member but Messrs. Eisenmayer, Gebr, Atkinson and Everett answered to their name. The clerk then read the minutes of the last meeting. Three or four contractors were in the council room when the Mayor called for business.

Mr. Burlingame had aome tax bill read and received. Everybody seemed entirely pacific by this time and those ho had come to see a new sewerage demonstration began to feel that a disappointment awaited them. The wall of the hall just behind the Mayor's chair wa adorned 'the blue print of the alleged Springfield sewer system. Mr.

Boss, chairman of the Sewerage Committee; had read the letter from O. II. White A of New York, to Mf. Ingram declining the acceptance of the bonds. CoLTeabody offered a resolution that the contract be awarded to Mr.

Daniel Jnnebug. He waa stonlidieJ at the somersault which the member from the Seventh ward had executed. Turn ingupon Mr. I'cabody, who aatathis right hand, he said: "What doe this sodden chaiiK mean? The council would like to know where you stand, Have you not stood np in this council time and again and said that no lick 'could be struck with pick on the sewer till the bond were told and the money in the city treasury? Now when the bonds are re jected and the treasury empty you make this proposition to let the con tract in the dark." Mr. Peabody took the floor and said he offered the resolution to test the le gality of the question.

He referred to Mr. Hartford, and Mr.Bicbee called the speaker to order. Mr. Hartford was not before the Council. Mr.

Pealody said he was speaking on the resolution and had aright to be heard. The chair did not rule on the point of order raised by Mr. Bigbee, and then a half dozen member wanted to speak at the xame time, Mr. Bigtiee gained the favor of thechair and sailed into Mr. Peabody 's renolu tion.

He could not vote for the accept anos of any bid till it wa known whose was the lowest? Nobody yet knew any tiling about that matter. The commit tee having the bids in charge had made no report. The Council had no right to expose the bills yet a the contract could not be let in any event at present The bunds had been rejected and the Council could do nothing till a new deal waa made. Let contractor call in their bids and the Council wait for more light on the per iplexity. I Mr.

Everett then got the floor. He looked at the blueprints above the head I of the Mayor and grew warm. The blue past boards with their undulating lines and figures seemed to fire his ire afresh He darted a few fierce glance at the provoking profiles, hit the resolution to award the contract, some hard blows in his energetic style1 of attack and then sat down. Mr. Adam wanted to make ittu i rBnj 'th.

Mr reabody'. and be would accept in payment for the work the bond with the accrued interest and one third of one per cent premium. Mr. Peabody insisted that his resolution be put on the record wanted his position understood. Mr.

Brown son sprang to hi feet with much ahowof feeling and aecured a nod of recognition from the chair. He hopped upon Mr. Peabody'e resolution with the eagerness a duck shovels op a resolution, that all bids be rejected till the council could get in shape to let the contract. The chair decided that Mr. Adam could not make hi amendment jja stick In that place.

Then Mr. Adam resumed hi chair. Mr. Peabody asked that Mr. DeLaney be allowed to speak a few words, and the contractor from Illinois stepped forward and said be would build the sewer and take the bond in payment on the BOSTON" term mentioned, lie inougLt an ex amination would show that hi bid wa the lowest I Mr.

Everett wanted to speak again and several other members manifested the earn inclination. Mr. Boss got the floor long enough to offer the report of the sewer committee rejecting all bid fur the present, on ac count of the failure to sell the bond. The resolution closed with a complimentary reference to Mr. Hartford a a competent en gineer and a tender of reect to the contractor ho had offered bid.

Mr. Eisenmsyer opposed the resolu tion from the sewer committee and re fleeted on the Tax Payers' Lesgue. He thought the organization should be re christened the "Private Sewer League." It waa not a Tax Pavers' League in good faith, but a scheme to defeat the public aewer. If Mr. Delaney would build the sewer and take the bond in payment he thought the proposition ss the best the Council could get Mr.

Overrocker, another contractor, wanted to sik a few words, lie claimed that hi bid wa the lowest and said that a fair examination would show this fact He had de posited fl.000 a a forfeit and would still stand by hi bid, If the Council wanted him to build the sewer he would come back and do the work. Mr. Pealody then urged that the con tract be let to Mr. Delaney. He be lieved the proposition was entirely legal, good counsel bad expressed that opinion on the question.

Mr. Bigbee wanted Mr. Peabody to write out Me position so that the people might know just how he stood on the question. It seemed to the member from the Fourth Ward that the proposition waa very wild. The vote was then taken on the resolution of the committee to reject the bids, and the question carried, Messrs.

Peabody and Kisenmeyer, only, voting No. A to adjourn was made, and several member tried to speak, but the chair put the question and the aye prevailed by a large majority. It wa now raining hard and the councilmen waited some time in the hall fur the storm to abate. While rein sing in the hall a general talk about the effect of the meeting on the sewerage question waa heard. Colonel Peabody said, "This end aewerage in Springfield.

The matter ia now dead." This wss generally considered to be an unnecessarily gloomy view. moving to the Milligan Building on or about the 28th of this month. BOSTON HOTEL AB RIVALS. Of ask ntxu Geo W. Krebs, A tioeti, Black, well, II Froda.
