Mayor Lee presided and all the mom.

regular meeting of the Common Council.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

On motion of Councrlman Scully, the
regular order of business was suspended
and the clerk read the application oi the
Norwalk Horse Railway company for
permission to double track and equip its.
road with electricity. This was the
same application presented at the last
meeting, with the exception that aclause
had been added, giving the city the use
of the poles the company will erect.

J. Donovan. Jr., said he had a word to.
say about the notices given of the hear-
ing, _, which were advertised for the
first time on Friday. This was not fair, he
said, as the railroad company had all the
time they desired. while the citizens had
only three days in which to on pare
their objection. in no legal contest or
other matter was such notice ever heard

of. The city was fy'llll‘fl to a fair

holiness aiuny lamp interested were
out of town and did not know of the
meeting. He thought the council had

shown undue haste in lbemstter.

In response to a question from Mayor
bee. City Attorney Light said the notice
was legal and sufficient.

Engineer W. B. Rider said he was
apropcrty-owner on West avenue. but
not having seen maps of the proposed
layout of the road, he was not familiar
with the alignment for the two
tracks. lie was opposed. however. to
having any more pairs placed in front of
his property; five were there already,
and he thought that quite enough. Judg-
ing from what he had heard. the tracks
would come directly over the sewer and
water pipes, and he should look to the
company for damages if the project was
carried through.

The Horse Railway company hearing
was then declared olnswl. and the appli.
cation of the Norwalk Tramway com-
pany for lwrmission to extend its tracks
from Woodward arr-cue, through Mea-
dow street tothe city line, was read.
The maps were examined. and as there
sure no remarks made, this hearing
was also declared closed.

The regular order of business was then
The minutes of the previous
meeting wore mail and approved; bills
to the amount of $497 H5 wrre audited

Mayor Keefer presided, City Clerk
lochwood acted as secretary. and the
tellers were John "Hoyt, Dr. W. F. Ac-
ton. Gould Hoyt, and Alfred E Austin.

The first business was the appropri-
ation of money for the licence depart-
ment. Councilman Boyer said that
318,000 would run that department.
Upon motion of A H. Camp it was vol-
ed to appropiate “2,500. The vote was
1% for and 31 against.

Councilman Boyer estimated on ex-
pense of 85,000 for the administrative dc-
partment. A. ll. Camp moved that
$8,500 be appropriated. This was
promptly seconded.

B W. Maples said iliemotiou to reduce
the expenses of the administrative de-
partment was unwise.

Mayor Keefer reslmnded by say ing that
the estimates were carefully made. and
if the appropriation was not needed the
money would not be spent, He thought
confidence should be placed in the
council.

Attorney liurlbutt thought it was boo
ter in tax the pooplc for the [honey avi-
unlly needed and not for any surplus
funds. He offered an unwinding-lit that
$4,000 be appropriated.

Mr.(‘amp accepted llw murudmcnt
The ballot stood 134 to ill).

(‘ouuciluiuu Wheeler said the light dr-

rtmeut needed $8,750: that the city

adacoutrai‘t for eighty-two lights at
.75 per light. but many additional lights
were needed, and the estimate left a
leeway of .800.

In reply toaquestiou asked by I). ll.
Homecker. Mr. Wheeler suited that the
contract for street lighting expired in

rule.

Alfred E. Auslin said a large number
of ii his were out tlimuglioui the mouth.
and o asked if any deductions were
made by tllf' company.

Councilman Wheeler replied that re-
ductions were made. but there was no
system in use whereby either the Coun-
cil or the company could tell the exact
number not burning. When the new
contract was made he hoped this would
be attended to.

John J. flanlon thought the light could

President Olmstead said he had never
known of arc lights being attached to

J. Belden Hurlbutt said that. as we
were getting into an era of cheaper
things. he should move that $0,000 be up

Mr. Hurlbutt said the present service
was miserable. He had tried to keep
track of the number of times the light
in front of his house was out, but he
gave it up in disgust. If his light was
not diflerent from the others they
must all be out. more than half the time.
He thought the ob y should secure cheap
or lights.

President ()Imstead said the present
rate was the cheapest in Connecticut.
Mr. Hurlbutt replied that if It was it
wouldn't beafter next June. lf Boston
could secure lights for ‘35 there was but
little sense in Norwalk paying 65. it
might be well for Norwalkers to break
the Ice and set the pace for the rest of
the state. He then scored Councilman

appropriation there was one burst of
common sense. Now can some intelli-
gent somebody tell how we are are to
pay $4,015 with “.000. Does the city
want to beg a reduction from the officers
on the ground of poverty?"

Attorney llurlbutt said the Council
had no right to make contracts to con-
duct with the action of the city meeting.
Mr. Maples replied that that was a
doctrine be had heard before. The city
charter meant smoothing, however. and
Mr. Hurlbutl was mistaken. “The
Council, according to your argument."
he said, “than had no authority toap<

Justice Austin said either the city had
some power or none. No undue criticism
had been intended. Everybody had
been obliged to economize, and why not
the city.

Attorney Walsh then held the door.

There was a large attendance at the
annual meeting of the Woman's Ex.

officers and board of managers were

unthinkable showing for a now enter-
prise in these hard times, and during
months which business men generally
regard as dull. There is I sale of fancy
articles at the Exchange this afternoon.
and there will be another shortly before
Easter. Following is the address of the
president at the annual meeting. which
we print, as it gives a distinct outline of
the work which it being done:

In presentin its that report the man-
agers of the omaa's Exchange submit
to“ the association the fact that the ques-
tion of brin lag together supply and
demand. wh ch has always been some-
thing of a puzzle. has been at least tem-
porarily answered in a satisfactory man-

 
 
 

or.

All industrious woman can place on

The Exc ange was never intended for
any particular rade or class. The con
goon may be real the humble classes

life or from the delicate and refined,
who may feel the need of things
which rhape may have once
been lav shed Upon them. or there
may be those who are glad to
avail themselves of an opportunity to
honestly work for money to be given
away in charity. We are not a money.
making society. If the Exchange ison
asuccessful basis and a small surplus has
been accumulated. it is because there
have been exercised constant thought
and care by the committees upon when
time and convenience there have been
many urgent demands, and who have
taken upon themselves all duties which
would ordinarily involve paid salaries.

We feel sure that our sphere of
mfufness will be greatly increas-
ed by our cornering to more comfort—
able . and my .guartere. where
especially there all be room
for the constant display of the many at.
tractive articles in our art and needle-
work department. Too great pffllofl can-
not be given to the proprietor of th
store where we have our tern ll’fll'v
quarters. the members of whose amil
nave been uniformly kind and helpfu ,
and who have tried in every way to con-
tribute to our success.

No matter how perfect may be our or
