night a water pipe burst in front of the building and in a few minutes the streets were flooded with water and tho basements of some of the large buildings were deluged About half of the people succeeded in getting out of the building when the terrific force of the water caused the earth to gi away and the water began pouring into the entrance of the building as if guided by a hose The hallway was full of people and many of them received a good wetting and others who had not yet made their exit did so through tho stage entrance After a half hour or more the water was turned off but not until several hundred dollars worth of damage had been done This was followed yesterday by the bursting of a number of water pipes in dif ferent parts of the city In the First National Bank building the pressure bursted a pipe on the fourth lioor and before it could be repaired the water had gone through all the floors to the basement and completely Hooded the office of the Evening Mail The 5 water dripped into the cases from the cell lug above until the type in the cases was actually swimming and the printers were compelled to cease work The editorial room which is in an apartment adjoining the composing rooms was also submerged Colonel A Hays the editor says that an hour previous to the break ho had put a t20 bill into the lower drawer of his desk and that it was afterwards picked up in a mutilated condition by the janitor scrub bing the floor The First National bank room was but recently repapered and fitted up The plastering fell to the floor in large pieces and the clerks had a lively time in saving seine of the books from the water A break was reported at 2749 Grant avenue as well as at several other places The cause is said to be from the terrific pressure that was on i City Council The city council met in special session for the purpose of taking some action in reference to the proposed power works to be erected at the head of Ogden caflon to grant Orvjllo Banks and William hompson a franchise to ereot and operate in all the streets and alleys of Ogden city an eectric system to convey electricity for 1 jnutivc power lighting heating and all ether purposes to which it might be an piled The mayor stated that the meeting had been called for a purpose uhictt meant something of importance to Ogden city He was opposed to calling a special sessions for the purpose of railroading an ordinance through the council This was a matter which must be disposed of at once or Ogden might lose an industry which will perhaps mean the investment in den of hundreds of thousands of dollars in manufacturing in dnstries He did not believe in granting privileges to a fev but whatever action might be tatren that it will benefit any and ul alike He asked the council to consider I the question carefully I Mr Banks said that be was willing to have their franchise become null and void if the power plant is not in operation ny September 1 Ib92 and that It would be sat isfactory if a section be added requiring them to be ready to furnish 1800horso poer from utilization of water from Og I den river by that time Amendments were onereci which make the ordinance stipulate that the power works must be completed by September 1 hJ2Attornov Attorney Hey wood appeared in the in terest of Ogden Cit City Electric Light company and endeavored to impress the mem bers of the council that in the event a franchise is granted to Thompson and Banks it tvouid work a hardship to his company 4 Messrs Banks and Thompson replied it was not their intention to injure any indus try in Ogden city It is true they would be competitors to a certain extent of the company which Mr Heywood represents yet they believed they asked nothing but what was right of Ogden city that delay would imperil the question of the ower works for Ogden They have laborc oweri i lLo enterprise for months and have nade arrangements by whch they are 1 to induce an immense amount of mone to be expended in Ogden city Coun Hors Elliott and Dee favored ro ferring the matter to a committee to report at 2 oclock Thursday Mr Banks was asked if this would inter fere with them in carrying the project through He replied that their contracts for water right etc would expire on December 31 that it would necessitate taking a trip to San Francisco to doc up arrangements with parties whom thij have induced to come here with their money that the action of the council tonight would decide the success of the enterprise that the parties in San Francisco expect an answer
