All the Qbieotsin the Call Almost
Unanimously Passed.
Maples and Coolidge Have a Tilt.
About seventyofive voters assembled
at the Town House (so-called) Mon-
day afternoon, in response to a call for
aborough meeting. In the absence of
Warden Kimmey, first burvess. Adams
presided. Borough Clerk Efurlbutt read
the call, after which Levi Warner of-
fered the following resolution : -
Voted, That the Water Commission-
ers be, and are hereby directed, to lay
a 12-inch water main on Main street
from Wall street to Cross street, and
the sum of $2,500 be, and hereby is, ap-
propriated for the payment of the cost
of said work.
Mr. C..B. Coolidge offered an amend-
ment that the appropriation be increas-
ed S50.
Mr. W. S. Moody ofi'ered another
amendment that a 10-inch instead of a
12-inch pipe be laid. He said that there
were already some lengths of 10-inch
pipe laid, and that the laying of a 10-
inch pipe would reduce the expense at
least $600, and that Size pipe was all.
sufficient for present use.
Mr. C. B. Coolidge agreed with Mr.
Moody as to 10-inch pipe being all that
was at present needful, but believed in
looking out for future needs; said there
would soon be a greater demand from
the people on the east side, and that if
any change was to be made at all, a 12-
inch pipe ou, ht to be laid.
Mr. B. Tul y agreed with Mr. Cool-
idge, as to 12-inch pipe, as did also A.
H. Camp. '
Mr. B. W. Maples thought Mr.
Moody had overlooked the fact that
while the 12-inch pipe was being laid,
the present pipe could remain. in use,
thus not inconveniencing those now
using the water along the line of the
proposed changes, and favored the 12-
inch pipe. .
A call for the preVious question re-
sulted in the resolution as amended by
Mr. Coolidge being almost unanimous-
ly passed.
The next matter brought before the
meeting was the consideration of the
application of the water commissioners
to lay a new water pipe between the
Lounsbury & Bissell Co. mill, at Win-
nipauk, and the Norwalk mills, and to
appropriate such money as might be
necessary to pay for the same.
Water Commissioner Mead stated
that the board of which he was a mem-
ber had come to the conclusion that it
was impossible with the present pipes
to supply a sufficient quantity of water,
and they recommended that a new six-
inch pipe be laid, at an estimated cost
of $1,557.65. He further stated that the
company were willing to pay an in.
creased rental for an increased supply
of water. _
Water Commissioner Coolidge said
that unless better service was given,the
company would discontinue the present
service. Spoke of the mill as an import-
ant industry and ought to have the ser-
vice they asked for.
Mr. J. A. Osborne, for the company,
said that the present 4-inch pipe did not
give satisfaction as to water service;
noted while on his way to the meeting,
that the standing pressure was but 32
pounds, while here in the borough it
was 80 pounds or more ; did not ordi-
narily use as much water as a tenement
house ; wanted it more especially in
case of fire, and incidentally mentioned
the fact that the company paid out h
something over $80,000 a year in wages
and thought it deserving of the recog-
nition asked for.
Water Commissioner Mead then made
a motion that the borough order a six-
inch pipe laid as called for, and that an
appropriation of $1,556 be made to pay
for the same and that the borough be
authorized to borrow the money to
meet the expense.
A. H.. Camp offered an amendment
that the appropriation be $1,600.
B. W. Maples thought it would be
improper to borrow the money when
there was other money available ; said
that there was an abundant sum of
money in the hands of the water. com-
missioners to pay for the work ; thought
it unfair to the taxpayers to increase the
,amount of borough indebtedness which
was already quite large, and thought
the commissioners had money lying
idle,~and then moved tO‘amend Mr.
Mead’s resolution to the effect that the
expense be appropriated out of the wa-
ter fund.
Mr. A. H. Camp, Secretary of the
Board of Water Commissmners, said
that Mr. Maples did not know what he
was talking about, and read a statement
showing that the commissioners had
$1,789. of which amount they owed
$65299; that the November collections
might aggregate $6,000, of which
amount they would have to use some-
thing over $5,000 on the let of January
in the way of interest. .
The motion as‘originally made was
then put and carried with but a few dis—
senting votes. '
The next thing in the call for the
meeting was the consideration of the
expenditure of $403.24 in excess of the
appropriation in making the RiverSide
avenue water pipe extension and make
appropriation necessary to pay for the
same.
Mr. B. Tnlly made a motion that
such appropriation be made.
.A motion made by Wm. Mullen, J r._ ,
to table, was lost by an almost unam-
mous vote. ' .
Water Commissioner Mead said that
he could not understand why a sum not
in excess of $700 had not been appro-
priated for the work; said the com-
missioners had awarded the contract to
the lowest bidder. ' .
Maples considered the motion out of
order, and added that the court of bur-
gesses, presumably on the adVice of
counsel, had refused to. pay the excess
of original appropriation, and added
that it was contrary to the laws of the
State. ' . .
Water Commissioner Coolidge said
he thought the excess ought to be voted;
said that the present board of water
commissioners took no back seat for any -
previous board ; work was given to the
lowest bidder; cost more than was first
estimated ; commissioners thoughtbest
to carry it through 'to completion, as an
economical measure. He then proceed-
ed to pa his compliments to the editor
of the our and his paper, and insmu-
' ated that he, the editor, felt sore over
being defeated for election on the_board;
asked for the approval of their, the
board’s, action in the premises. .
Mr. Maples was then heard; he ear-i
castically complimented Mr. Coohdge
on what he termed his eulogy of the
water commissioners; said t at fortu-
nately or otherwise he (Maples) was in

Five Mile Bicycle Race.
The long talked of bio cle race be-
tween James Hall and illiam Olm-
stead took place Saturday afternoon.
The race was from the crosswalk iii
front of the Congregational Church to‘
Dorlon Point and return, a distance
of five miles for a sweater contributed
by the molders at Arnold’s foundry,
where the contestants. Hall and Olm-
stead, are employed. Both had their
champions who staked considerable
money on their favorites. A fine start
was had and both were evidently out
to do their best; each had the lead at
various times during the race but at no
time were they many lengths apart.
As they came up on the home stretch
they were even, at which time both
spurted Olmstead crossin the line
only half a wheel’s length a ' ead. The
time made was 185 minutes. Another
race Will probably be arranged between
the two. Harry Benedict acted as
judge and time keeper.
