That's as old as Methusa'a, this thing of rrviDg stop thief, when the man who cries it has his own pockets full. I don't like to be called a jobber when I am Dot in terested in the thing a five cer.t piece. If tbe newspapers are paid for their com munications 'hat's a matter of business and is ail right, for I believe a lawyer has a right to defend the greatest rascal in the worid. ow, I am in favor of wait ng a few days till we see whether the Allegheny aliey railroad will graot ns the right of way along their line.

MORE A ROCMENT FOR BITLF.R STREET. Maj. Negiey One thing to be remembered is that if tbe Allegheny Railroad Company have simply purchased the right of way for their road then the property holders may be able to recover from us for laying the pine there. One reason why I favor the Butler street route is te-caue the engineers, Chessborongh and Lane, favored it. They say also that, ther ought to be two reservoirs, and I believe we will yet have to complete the Brilliant Hill reservoir.

Mr. Negiey continued to build np an argument favoring Butler street on arguments and opinions advanced bv Ches-b rougbt I-ane and by Colonel Milnor Koberts. Mr. French I intend to stand by the Butler street route till you show me a better. I believe with Mr.

Negiey that you will have to come back to tbe Brilliant reservoir; that you will have t-o complete it. Talk about" jobbery. Now no person has ever come to me in the interest, of the Butler street route. Why the very paper (Commercial Gaze'te) that cries job, bad a change in tbe very column where they cried job. Tbey say tbe South Side cannot get water by "the Butler street route and then suggest tbe A.

V. route. Now how in the name of heaven is the South Side to get water by tbe A. V. R.

K. ronte when tbe water must go throngh the same pipes in Lawrenceville as in the Butler street route I tell you if there is bbery it is connected with some other route. BfTLEtt STRKF.T ADOPTED. The ouestion was now called on Mr. Fo ley's motion to approve the report of th Water Committee, Mr.

Johnston amen.t-raent not having been seconded. The motion was carried by a large majority and Council adjourned. TO OMH. Iefrfnr of tbe -rey moti Knap Battery I vpbIUK. The Eighteenth Kegiment (lmquesne Greys), left last evening for camp at Chautauqua.

The boys expect to return to the city to-morrc week. iite a number of members wh were nnable to acxmpanv the regiment last evening, will leave for thecampdnnng the present week. It is expected that large crowd will leave here on Saurday. Ex-Cblef Roes Again After tbe Keer leaders. Yfcsterday afternoon W.

B. Ross, late Superintendent of tbe Law and Order So ciety, instituted quite a number ot sui before Alderman D. L. Smith of Allegheny against saloon keepers. He accuses Henry Dippel with selliog beer at the colored camp meeting at McKee liocks.

A sim ilar charge is made against Peter Gilg Henry Dippel and Henry eagle are charged with selling beer at DietrU i without license, and nerent persons are accused of having sold liouor at hvrr green Hamlet on Decoration Dav without license. Informations were also made against the proprietors of the Tivoli (jar uen.of the Arcade Varieties on Penn ave- Dae between Eleventh and Twelfth streets and against Charles Stevens of Fifth ave nue for runninsr a show in connection with their saloons. These last suit are entered under the act of April 1h72, which pro hi bits the maintenance of theatres of any kind in connection with drinking saloons. Heretofore Mr. Robs has been entering his suits before Alderman McKelyey, but that magistrate, it is understood, now refuses to entertain them hereafter on the ground that it injures bis business.

B. Boal and Patrick Mangan. The petition of James Hunter for an abatement of water rents was refused. Mr. Herron from a special committee made report in reference to the tire in the coal mine near the upper Bedford avenue reservoir.

Captain Ward was afraid that some morning the people won id find boiling water in their pipes. The committee found however that the Bedford avenue basin is not in the least danger and recommended that no action be taken. The report was approved. Water extension business wasthen taken up and the July pay rolls amounting to 4S were approved. HEKKOJf RESERVOIR MORE PIPE TOPE LAI I.

Mr. Herron, from a sub-committee on Reservoir, presented a report recommend ing that, the Citv Engineer be instructed prepare plans for supplying Herron Ileser- voir with water and report to the commit tee They recommend that a 2 inch main be laid on Center avenue fmni Neville to Craig streets, a distance of 900 feet; that 12-inch be laid alone: Craig and A pine Mreet, a distance of feet, and rtnaLiy That a steam pump be put at the intersection of Crais street and the main This work would cost about 52 It i p-oposed to remove the engine now at tV lower Bedford avenue basin to Herron bill The report was approved and the Su perintendent was also instructed to report the proh C'le. cnst ot removing the engine.

The motion was amende! so as to instruct the Superintendent also to repirt which of these streets will pay ennngti water rents to pay the cost of laving the pipe, and, as amended, the motion was adopted. A communication was received from twenfv men. now emploved at tiilmg dirt inthe rising main trenches.

I r. Evans thought the resolutions a premature, since Select Council had refused pas the ordinance opening up the roii'e.

Judge Mellon rhe passage ot the re- lution will expelite the work. The resolution will get things into shape f. the work. The ordinances failed in Select Council for the want of a legal majority. I think there wi.i be no dirticuify about the passage of these ordi nances.

Councils can do nothing eise than pass the ordinances or e'se take upon themselves the responsibility of running two sets of water works at a great expepne and smII keeping the people without water. Mr. amine offered an amendment so as to instrnc the officers named to proteose plans and advertise f-r prop wals for lav i rig the on the A. V. II.

Mr. Baiiey Will a 30-inch main fully SOPplv the South Side Engineer Lowry Yes. sir; it will more than supply ail the wants on the Side. The resolution was adapted.

Judge Meiion moved the appointment of a committee of tive to cotter with the Allegheny Valley railroad t-fticials to learn whether the right can be had for laytiig the main alorg the railroad, and whether the route is practicable. The motion was adopted. Messrs. Mellon, Ford, Evans Welsh and another member were ap pointed. Mr.

Sullivan I wou'd like to ask the Mechanical Engineer what he is doing with the first pair of engines. Mr. howry I am doiug nothing with them, i have had no instructions. Mr. Sullivan I move that the engineer be instructed to proceed to complete these engines the same as if the iron were up to required strength.

Mr. Bailey stated that this action bad already been taken- The minutes were then hunted np and the recommendations of the sub-committee at the last meeting were read. After considerable taik the Controller was instructed to advertise for proposals for the work. The committee will meet on Monday night a week to let the contract-On motion of Mr. French a committee was appointed to report the bent plan supplvir the South Side with water.

The gentleman thought that a oXMm main on Stnithrield street, tapped so freuuentiy as ir wilt be. wouM not furnish enough water. The motion was carried. Iir Evans The new engines are num- tiered. I think this is a poor way to designate them.

The old engines are named Sampson and Hercules. Mr. Herron move that Dr. Evans be appointed a committee of one to christen the new engines. The motion was carried amidst a great leal of laughter.

At a late hour last night while Mr red eric Faber of Allegheny, was pro ceeding along i Hara street on bis way to his home on High street, he was attack) by two men and beaten in a terrible man ner.

K. ROTTTK. Mr. Mellon In the Wafer Comraittp to-niiibt I intend to move the appointment of a committee to confer with the A V. K- R- with reference to laying the main.

Their would save a grea deal to the dry nnlepH the Pennsylvania Rtilroail Company should impose many and expensive condition on the city. But the officers and d-rw tr have no riant to grant the right of way to the city under a decision of the Snprerne Court. This if entirely foreign to mil road matter, and their dntin confined exclusively to railroad affairs. The permis-tion to lav the pipe must ti-e given by the stock hoM era. Another obj-cTion is that the AUeheny Valley road is b-avily mortaagwl, and should the road fall into the ban-is of third parties thv might take possession of onr pipes, al'boJi nndr ground, S'ill, I don't pe that thia should cause a postponement of or action to-day We ttbonld approve the of the Water and should receive bids so that we can nave the work done this year.

A3 JOBBERY. There ia one peculiar feature in connection with the water worics. If any proposition brought up against the opinion of two or three city otiUnala, the newspaper, or some of them at least, straightway cry out. "A job." "A job," "A job." Now why this is so I don't know. Some say that the papers are rd for it; others that they do it pro jmhiifo.

But it is curioos that some of the pap rs always get np a false pah ic opinion about projects which two or three certain individual oppose. Now I fail to see where the job comes in It is said that the Butler street route will benefit certain property holders, but there ia nothing in that. Another point is that this route will not be able to supply the ftonth pide, and will benefit the South Side Water Company. I have a little stock in this company, and will not rot on the contract, bat I deov the assertion that it will benefit the Mooongahela company. The plan of bavin? tbe water pumped away np into tbe Hilaml reservoir, and then bavin? it flow back again, will help the South Side company more.

It will be ditlienlt to keep pumping enough wat-r to such a high eie-vatiou to supply tbe old city. E-STI AT KD COST OF THE IF ERECT ROUTES. There are three routes proposed; tbe But ler street, the Morning Side road, and the ftt. Ciair street P-nn avenue route. There are different reasons why the Butler street route was aborted by the Water Committee.

In the first place the Butler street route is the cheapest. Accordingto tbe Kngineer's report the cost of these routes wou'd be a follows: rSrtfler street route, St. Clair streer route, lug Si.l route, w.mj. ineseconarea son is that the Engineer savs the Butler street route is safe ani practicable. Objec tion was made in Select Council that En3inier wonld not say that the route was tafe bevor.d a shadow of doubt.

I don't pin my faith to the Encineer's eieeve, but be is a cautious man and I don't blame biro for not positively stating there will be no slides. nnril he can mate Jfuii exam ination. The Butler street route would ave the taking up of one and a half miles nf 3 inch pine now laid on Kufier st eet. This pipe would have to be remove! to enn arenneand there be re-laid. The But ler street rouf would also save tbe Tearing np of four miles of wooden pave- juent.

To tear up rout mites of wooden pave jneiit 10 feet wide would be a great expense. "We should let the rotten wooden pave- -nifttit all irotozether and bury it in oblivion. Another reason for supporting the Butler reet rone is that it in ready at any day for commencing the work. TUP 2'MNXH I'M'K PrMPINfJ INTO THE MAINS. But you can also furnish a full supply of water ny tbe riutier street ntuw.

Tbey av not because there is a 20 inch nil on But. er street, from Fortv-TMurh to Thirty second streets. Now ther is a svstem of pipes in Liwrenceville carllei to tbe i' inch main. ou cn con iict thesi branch nines to the incb main, thus suiilv IwrncwviUe and let the old city and South Side be supplied from the main. Thee branch pipes couid comit'C with the iv'i-inch main, both be- tvttd KorfT-nicth strert and on the west iHide of ThirtT secnd street.

This would a fuil (-uppSv. But another fa- turrt. vou can imrnp directly into the main. I have consults! different eninerji and thev all sav this is practica ble. It is done at West Philadelphia and Chicago.

If the inch main be laid along this route we can bud precisely what pressure wili needed to ftend the water throuco the into toe city, ana men pump the tlunt biuh enough Iito the rising main u-y g've pr-cisely this pressure Should the ri-r be ntu ldy at any particular time the shut od co h-t used, the water pump! into one reservoir and clear srater be ailowett to ti-iw from the iher compart- luent iufo the distnonting main. 1 Mr. Johu.t4n Will not this argument apply to the A V. 11. nut-V Mr.

Mellon Yes sir, ami for that reason I want the Wat-r Commit ree to-night to ap- p.iiil a commit to see whether we can gf the right of way. Mr. Karcur I am oppose! to this whole thing. It us finish the engiues tirt. I will vote against the Butler street ute.

FAVORS ST. LAIR STKKET. Mr. Ford me reason why I voted for RiiiliT street rout is because tbe ieopie ire crving for water, and we have mtdions upon millions of gallons water in the liuatd reservoir, and if tbe distributing rnms only te laid this water can be sup to the citiz-ns. When I voted for iit street route tlm Engineer said it wan perfectly safe.

Since that time be has piaitid his statement, and I contend that the neat ion of security is to be considered XAxht-r the tjueNtion of a trifling addt- fi ripj-nse. The route should be safe above ail tbingi else For the Rutler street rout we bum cut another ertlaent chara-ler Into tar. Hi land renervoir. There would be girat danger to the reservoir in catting another hole into it. A inch main on a rti ui of the St.
