er Daniel Dunlap being present and
explaining matters in relation to his
mate.
lfr. Dunlap ssitedfcr an “if! was-
on andharness ‘which would cost the
city 0260, while the hiring of a horn
He explained that one of the horses
belonged to the street department
when it is needed. which is only at
certain lessons or the year. *
in relation to the sewers. he explain-
ed that one in Summit street was ab-
solutely necessary. there being eleven
houses to be drained at the present
time and more would be built when
the sewer was laid. his further ex.
piained that within a few years two-
thlrds of the money expended would
come back to the city, tintiugh assess-
ments. He also spoke of the boxing-
ton avenue sewer, for the construction
of which money was asked. saying
that it would eliminate the condition
of affairs at the J. & .1. Cash Company.
Ltd. through whose property the ob-
jectionable brook flowed. which had
been. condemned by the board of
health.
John if. McMahon stated that the
statutes prohibited the covering of a
brook which ran through its natural
course. ,
Christian Swartz ifeatured to re-
mark that the course of the brook had
been changed by himselfywhen he had
owned the property. " ‘
In relation to the Laurence street
sewer. for which anappl‘opriation was
asked. the fact that the street had not
yet been accepicdtcr even offered as
a public highway by the owners there
of, whereat the members of the hoard
balked at appropriating anything un'
der the circumstances.
Attorney John Keogh stated that in
searching the deeds of the property.
he had found that the property was
formerly owned by the Hotchlilss peo
ple, who had sold lots bounded by the
streets, but the bounds of this street
had never been defined. Consequently
the Hotchklss people still owned the
street, but inasmuch as it was of no
use to them. be was of the opinion
that they would willingly deed this
property to the city, if asked to do
so.
Commissioner Dunlcp also spoke of
the Garner street sewer. which would
cost $3.500. the lowest estimate. There
was some qucstion as to whether this
amount would do the work. on account
of the largoquantliy of rock to be
handled. w
Dr. George S. Kendall thou uppcarcd
in behalf of the interests of the health
department. ‘ . . -
llr. Kcudaii stated that in the near
future there would bc a petition pre-
sented in refer-euro to the city lot.
which was a disgrace. At the prcscnf
time 1119 city is phyla-g root for a barn
which is inadequate to accommodate
the city couvcyailccs. Those are rot
ling in tho cicinonts. The city should
build a barn to keep thcsc things as a
mattcr of business.
Corporation Counsel John Keogh
stated that a committee of the council
was working on tbc matter of printing
the city chartcr. embodying the act.
providing for the appointment of the
board of estliuatc and taxation.
llc stated that the only book con-
taining the ordinances, charter and
other matters pertaining to the city
government is in City Cicrk .loacpli R
Taylor‘s other, and consists of a scrap
book made up of newspaper clippings
dated from 1890. which is not indexed
To print a book, containing all this
information together with the rmislon
of this matter would cost approximate
1y race. This should be done and it
would be mete that the board should
take the matter into consideration and
appropriate enough funds to cover this
cxpcnse.
('hrisllnu Swartz appcurcd bcforc
thu board and askcd that thc unfinish-
cd city work he completed. holding
that this was necessary. in ordcr that
the business of the several dcpart
incuis might be facilitated. Most of
the propcrfy has berm surveyed and
maps arc in thc possession of the city
officials. To collect lhcsc maps and
make a book of them would cost. about
8600. The board of assessors. this last
your. required that the property own
crs give the Incasuremenls of their
property. in many ratios properly own-
crs have absolutely refused to givc
those, while others have given falac
dimensions. lie ventured to say that
the man would pay for itself in two
years in the assessments for taxes. llc
spoke of the experienctI of the shell
flab commission. who completed a map
of several thousand acres and told of
lhc ll‘t‘nl satisfaction which the man
had given to all mnccrned. The port
session of such a complete map would
urmtiy facilitate the work of the alt
sensors and loss friction would result
in the layiurr of the taxes. in that each
taxpayer may use for himself and find
that be was setting as square u deal
as his nolglitmr. lie added that the
city canineor had many maps made by
himself from private surveys and
would furnish these to the oily. tn‘stts.
Mr. Ewart: then explained the sever-
al items in the budget of the water
commissioners. He tried that the
work on the hill wont be entirely tail-
cn care of by money on hand. This
who? made westblu by the fact that a
murmur of 02.500 had been paid back
to the commissioners.
The bond held that the communism

know when you are beaten. When the
matter at installing the high pressure
plant on the bill was brought up, you
said, in the presence of several promi-
nent men. right in front of The Sea-
tinel office. that you would stop it.
Stop it! Public opinion is against you
and you have been beaten at every
turn."
Mr. McMahon then warmed up des-
pite his assertion to the effect that
Mr. Swartz could not fight words with
him. He replied: "i will not use any
vulgar language. but many of your as-
sertions are false and l reiterate my
former statement that the water cont
missioners have exceeded their appro
pristion again and have violated the
charter. 1‘11 match my brains against
,yours any day. 1 did not make the
assertion you charge was made in
front of The Sentinel ofllcc."
Mr. Swariz hcatediy replied that he
could prove his statement by one of
the best I)?“ in the'jcity.
Chairman Mathewson, in the mean
time, had bccn trying to restore.- ordcr.
and finally succeeded in doing so. He
hcid that if the commissioners had rc-
cctvcd permission of the council to
spend this money. it was the fault. of
the council.
Mr. McMahon» then challenged Mr.
Swartz to deny that the water commis-
sioners had spent more than their cs
timatcd rcccipts during the past your.
.‘tlr. Mathewson stated to Mr, Swartz
that according to the interpretation
of the charter, if any amount over and
more the cstlinutcd laconic should
collie in. it should not be used, except
by spcciul appropriation by the board
of estimate and taxation. Mr. Swartx.
after having the matter carefully ex
plaincd, agreed with him.
Again Messrs. Swan: and Mchiahon
rcsumcd, and Mr. McMahon took ex-
ception to the statement that he did
not harm tlic difference between swill
and water. it was proposed that the
board of estimate appropriate the 82.-
sun in question, acording to law.
Mr. McMahon stated that Mr
Swartii dbl not have a poor on the
town board of apportionment and if
any town department had acted as the
water rouuuisslonera had. he would
have been thc most critical and hard
cst workcr against it.
Morris Epstcin appeared and talked
on the Lincoln sewer and asked that
it he put in. Ho stated that he wished
to erect about ten iiouscs there and
thought it would be, no more than fair
that this be done.
Councilman Aibcrt hi. l‘ohlmun
stated that ho had ovcrkmkcd the ad—
dition- to the charter in the appoint
mom of a building inspector and neg.
icctcd to cstlinete hiasalary. lie asked
the board if they could do something
in relation to this. '
He Was advised that nothing could
be done at in.- present time. but he
was requested to work it into the next
inceilng and endeavor to incorporate
that business with that of the plumb.
lug inspector, in order to eliminate a
multiplicity of office holders.
0. William llarford. of the board of
assessors. appeared and spoke in favor
of Christina t-iwarts's proposal to have
completed 11in unfinished map of South
Norwaik.
William ll. McMahon also spoke in
favor of the map. saying that it would
show up to a great extent how much
property was being assessed as farm
land. which would certainly be a rave
lotion.
No further business being brought
up an sdlourmusnl was tskcn for tilt
next public hcarins. which will be held
on New Year‘s eve.
