1 warns BOARD SINKINC ruse.

S. 'C; '- Palmer appemd before the
Board and stated that at the last city
meeting the Common Council was in-
structed to set aside two-thirds of the
net earnings of the water works, for one
year, its a sinking fund. He did not
understand that any action had been
taken toward doing this, but that was
no fault of the Council. It was because
the commi-loaers had never made any
report of such surplus. Consequently
the wishes of the public were not cold-
edeut. The charter made this manda—
tory, he said, and the Council may ask
the com to make a report. In
view of the fact that it was two months

papedaml no report

Palmer thought
the Council should take some action.

Conubilmalrflemson thought Mr. Pal-

 
 

nie’r'was entirely wrong. He said it

“unfiniontioned in the resolutiOu what
the money was to be used for. “We,as
the (buncllfl’ he said, "know that there
is a surplus, and we have the money in
city notes.” , ‘

Mr. Palmer said the Council was not
bound to carry out the action of the city
meeting, but it was clearly and legally
the duty of the. Water Commissioners to
report by resolution to the Council that
there is a surplus, and what it amounts
to, something they had never yet done.

Councilman Hatch, speaking as a
Water Commimioner, thought Mr. Pal-
mer was wrong. Verbal reports of the
surplus in the hands of the Water Conn,i
missionerhad been made, and the city'
had the use of the money in each in-
stance. He did not know the cause if
all Mr. Palmer's quibbling. 1’ The
amount loaned to the city was 09,000
By the Water Commissioners' charter
they hold those bonds, notes, etc. ,-sepur
ate from the city. 'i'l‘he gentleman
who has just spoken,” motioned Mr.
Hatch. "has not said one word to the
Commissioners or asked one question of
them during' the time .he has been find-

' ing fault with them." If the' report of

asurplus should be made in writing,
which Mr. Hatch had never thought
necessary, he could dd so, he said, very
ousily,asit would take less than five
minutes to prepare one.

Mr. Palmer said it was far from his
desire to ill-treat the Water Cmnnnis-
Iii nets, but 010,000 walnut a small sum
to handle lightly. He still thought the
report should be in writing. for word of
mouthreports faded away after being
spoken. The matter, he thought, should

the previous meeting and auditing bills

William A. Hendricks, C. V. Arnold
and Frederick Kesting appeared before

of Douglas rattler Pest, presented the
(bunch for the Public Library with a
work entitled "Newark, N. .l., Illustrat-

Councilman ‘fsrris reported that he

had looked at Crescent slrest, which he
found very dilapidated. To carry wafer

crosswalk and have curb and gutter laid

The report was accepted. Mr. Ferris
spoke regarding the walk on Cres-

nt Terrace, which was not laid prop
only. Mr. Ferris said that, in his
opinion, the city should rebuild the
walk on Crescent Terrace for a distance
of 110 feet. The wall was relaid by the

. city when it fell a couple of years ago,

and he thought it was the city' it place to
relay it, as the work was not properly
done. The contractor had left town.
and was not a responsible party.

Councilman Pearson objected to the
city relaying the walk, his claim being
that it was the same as any other walk,

property-owners.
Attorney Light stated that, while the

“walk was apart of the street, the pro-
perry-cwnéls were obligodto maintain
it. The city ordered these property-
owuers to place walkson that grade, but
it would be an injustice for them to
maintain ‘ the grade when the wall fell
MB. 1 . a
, Mr. Pearson took an opposite view of
the matter, claiming that the wall consti-
tuted a curb, which the property-owners
were obliged torepsir.
Councilman Ferris recommended
that the walk he laid, at a cost
of, about $10., A vote was.taken,*result-
ing in five "yes" and one "no.” the lat-
ter by Mr. Pearson.

FIRE ALARM BOX FOR THE BRIDGE

Councilman Wmd reported that, on
the petition for a hydrant and 500 feet
of hose on the carriage bridge, he did
not think the hydrant was feasible, for
the reason that it would freeze in winter
and possibly burst, causing damage.
Besides, there was no place to keep hose.
He‘rccommended, however, the placing
of a fire alarm box on the bridge, which,
with a cable across the harbor, could be
put in for about $175. ‘

Chief Engineer Baker Was called on to
give his opinion. He said that" a hy-
drant would 1mm and probably be use
less at the very time it was Wanted. He
thought the best plan wounds to locate
a box there, and t there Would be the
difficulty of having e bridg'e open. He
had in nnind an arrangement with the
Blunt Norwalk department to run to fires
on the bridgoannd asthe members had ev-
en conno to South Norwalk on some ocoar
sions, he thought they would be glad of
the practice. The first thing w as a
quick alarm, and if the firemdn had that
he thought fires could be quickly extinv
gnished. The recommendation of the
fire committee was adopted, and the
clerk was instructed to have the electric
light commissioners put the box in at

OllCO.
HOUSE DRAINAGE.

Councilman Weed introduced an or«
dinancc relative to house drainage,
which stated that no house should here-
after be erectcd or altered, as far as
plumbing details were concerned, until
the plans were first submitted to the
Common Council for approval. By
July, 1896, every plumber shall have
registered at the city clerk's oflicc, and
on change of place of business or resi-
dence he shall at once notify the clerk.
For a violation of the ordinance the
penalty iss flue of not more than $100
norless than $50.

The question was asked how it would
oflect out-of-town plumbers coming
herotowork. Attorney Light said it
would apply to thonn as well. Councilman
Pearson thought the ordinance ought to
bereforrod to the city attorney, but it
was afterward laid .on the table. The
ordinance was later taken from the
table and changed to road that instead
of plans being submitted to the Council,
they should be submitted to the commit-
fce on health of the city. The ordinance
was then pmd.

SANITARY MATTERS.

Councilman Kendall reported on the
health of the city. .He said that, in the
Benton street matter, Dr. Tracey bad
assured hinn that the town would look
after the drain, so that hereafter there
would be no «longer from that scum».
He was not sosuro that sewage in the
gutter was detrimental to health. as he
had received a letter from Dr. Lindsley,
whieh'said it was it: better to lot the
waste water run slime ground than to
low it.

Engineer Briggs said Day street was
only afoot and five-tenths above high
water. He nhmgbt the best way to
remedy nuisances in that. vicinity was
teonler the property filled in. Three
lots there needed it badly, and the work
could be done for .700. The property
could be nawcrod. but not satisfactorily.
A drain across Raymond street would
costabout see. He did not think the
city was in any way retpousiblo for the
conditions there.

Dr. Kendall continued, stating that
Dr. Madaley had said the coralltionsu
there were extremely unsanitary. He
disapproved of ground storage, and was
of the envision that every constant in the

Councilman Kendall inquired,

he said, was badly washed and several
cellars filled with water.
Engineer Briggs reported that a lay-

’ outof the street had been adopted, but

that the freeholders had all resigned.
Mr. Kendall thought curbs and gutters
should be ordered laid there. The
matter was referred to. the street com-
nnissioner.

Although not‘ns many were present

the liquor traillo was the enemy of men,
Women and children, mentally. morally,
religiously and financially: that while
great representative bodies of the people
may resolve and rc-resolve against this
evil, it rests with the individual tocarry
out these resolutions. The influence of
organised womanhood was one theme
on which she spoke feelingly. She said
one great mistake was that the temper-
ance cause had been side-tracked too
long already. It ought to be made a

wipe up the overflow from that sink of
iniquity, the saloon, we ought, as a na-,

(III THE SHORE 0F liKE KEIIIISIA.

Raymond Brothers Say the Weight of the Beat

Was lilmprsssnied to Tlném, and They
Want the Owner to Pay Half lbs Ex-
pects of Transportation.

Every reader of The Sentinel is famil-
iar with the details of the stormy voy~
age of the steamer Molltgonlcry, ovcr
paths untroddcn by any adventurous
steamboat.

They know how she was purchased
in South Morwalk and how Contractor
Raymond hoisted her out of the water

and placed her upon the biggest tracks I..."

he could find' in the city. That was a
month ago. A

Sixteen horses were hitched to the
trucks, and after a perilous trip of
twenty-nine days the steamer landed in
Danbury. The journey Was an event-

‘ fol one. and the boat encountered perils

that she never met with on Long Island
Sound even in' the most tcmpestuous
times. .

When she reached Lake Kenosla, Fri-
day evening, she was a son; looking
boat. Her pilot house was detached
from her cabin and her smokestack was
missing. Her rudder was gone and
there were a score of things to indicate
the trials she had encountered on her
journey.

She now lies upon the shore of Lake
Kcnosio, with llf'l' nose just really to
slide off into the water when she is
given the necessary assistance. But no
knmvs when she will be set afloat. The
trouble, according to the Danbury Newab
in that the contractors who brought her
through the dangers of her journey
have not been paid and they will not
launch her.

Her owners say that the money is Nam“

ready for the contractors and will be
paid whenever the bout Is placed in the
water. The trouble seems tobe about
the amount of money which is tobc
paid. Raymond Brothers contracted to
take the boat. to Dnnbury for $227:
They expected to make the trip ina
week at the most, and thought them
would. he money. in the job. :But they say
thumbs might of the boat was misrep-
resented to them. They say it weighs
at least twenty tolls, while they under-
ritual thatttho weight was much less
when they made the contract. The cost
of bringing theboat to Dnubury was
$1,100, which is probably as much or
more than the boat is worth. Raymond
Brothers want the owners of the Mout—
gomory to pay half the expense of trans-
portation, $550.

It was said yesterday afternoon that
litigation might result bolero the matter
was adjusted and it was expected that
the bout Would be attached at almost
any time.

And that is not the only dollgcrwllivh
confronts the Montgomery, for wczntlncr
beaten mariners who have hissed about
upon the billows of Lake Kannada for
years and have pulled more prickbacks
and pumpkinsccds from her dark depths
thnln any twenty other grizzled veterans
of the blue wotcrs,say that she can never
benivctlto lulvnntagc upon so small it
shoot of water. Ill the first place they
think she draw.» too nnuch water to run
closoto the shore, and that it will be

dillicnlt to get aboard her unless [nmsnn- ‘

gors put out Ill row boots while she llll-
olnors mnwwhn‘ro out in the lake. 'l‘lncy
prophesy that alwwilllirnn hard ashore

brforo she intakes nuanny trips and there ‘

willbenothiug on tho/lake big enough
and powerful ommgh to pull her off
again unless Dr. Knox discovers a sun
