Ald. Peaslee submitted the following,
which was adopted:
Resolved, By the city council of the city of
Dubuque, that the $600 deposited with the
treasurer in the month of July by E H.
Sheppley et al., being the amount con-
tributed by them towards defraying the ex-
pense of opening Lincoln avenue from
Couler avenue to White street, be and is
hereby accepted.
Also presented the following report:
Your committee has had under careful
consideration the petition of a large number
of citizens and taxpayers living along the
line and in the vicinity of the terminus of
the Key City Electric street railway, which
was referred to us at the last regular meet-
ing, and which asks the council to remit all
city taxes now levied against said company,
and to exempt the property of the company
from taxation for a term of years in the
future.
It is stated in the petition. and your com-
mittee is satisfied of the truth of the state-
ment, that this line of street railway has
never, since its construction, up to this time,
paid the expenses of operating it. It has
been sold under a foreclosure of mortgage,
and the purchasers are considering what
course to pursue in regard to its future
maintenance and operation.
The continued operation of the line is a
matter of very great importance to a large
number of taxpayers, and especially to the
western part of the city. where a large num-
ber of improvements have been made and
much mouey invested in the expectation
that the road would be maintained. It it
should cease to be operated the result would
be a great loss to many of our citizens and
depreciation of property, and a correspond-
ing lowering of assessments and reduction
of taxation.
As an objection to granting the prayer of
the petitioners it has been urged by some that
it would constitute a precedent, and that the
other street railway companies, particularly
the line now in the hands of a receiver,
would make application and claim a right
to a similar exemption. To this it is suffi-
cient to say that both of the other lines of
street railways in Dubuque, and especially
the one in the hands of a receiver, have been
doing a large business and have earned much
more than the cost of operation, and conse-
quently stand in no danger of being discon-
tinued. In that respect they stand in an en-
tirely different situation from the Eighth
street line.
Under all the circumstances your commit-
tee is disposed to favor the granting of the
prayer of the petitioners in part, but only on
condition that the operation of the railway
shall speedily be extended to Center street,
in West Dubuque, and that new rolling stock
be placed on the line and a better and more
frequent service be given the public.
W e, therefore, recommend the adoption by
the council of the following resolution:
Resolved, by the city council of the City of
Dubuque, That, in consideration, that the
Key City Electric Railway company, or its
successors, or assigns, shall within thirty
(30) days from the adoption of this resolu-
tion, extend and complete the construction
and equipment of its line of street railway
to the intersection of Center and Delhi
streets, in West Dubuque, and operate its
said line of railway, the entire length of the
same, running a car each way, at least once,
in every twenty (20) minutes, the full length
of the line, from six o'ciock in the morning
to eleven o'clock in the evening of each day,
and continue to so operate and maintain
said line, on such time, and give efficient
service to the public, the city of Dubuque
will cancel and remit the city taxes assessed
against the Key City Railway comnany for
the year 1891. or, it said taxes for 1891 have
been paid by tha holder of the tax certificate
given by the city treasurer at the sale for
taxes of the property of said company for
the s ear 1890, the city will repay to the hold-
er of said certificate, the amount so paid by
him, for the subsequent tax of 1891, provided,
the'railway company shall pay the holder
of such certificate any penalty or interest
which may have accrued on said payment
of the taxes of 1891. And,
Resolved, further, That in consideration of
such extension, and increased service, and
the said company or its successors
shall fully equip its line of railway
so at to render the public good, prompt, and
r
1
Adjourned Regular Session, Oct. 4, 1892. 16i)
efficient service, and continue to operate the
same in such manner, and run items at the
times and intervals above stipulated, the
city of Dubuque will relieve and exempt said
line of railway, its rolling stock, and all
property of the owners of the same, directly
connected with the operation of said street
railway, from all city taxes during the period
of five (5) years, commencing with the year
1592.
In case the owners of said street railway
shall at any time fail to operate and main-
tain the same in a thorough and efficient
manner, and as hereinbefore stipulated, the
exemption from taxation above provided
for shall at once cense and determine, and
this resolution become inoperative for the
remainder of the period specified for such
exemption.
And it is further provided that in case the
earnings of said street railway shall in-
crease to such an extent before the expira-
tion of the period of five (5) years, herein
above specified, as to be more than sufficient
to defray the current expenses of operating
and maiutainlog the same, the exemption
from taxes herein granted shall thereupon
terminate, and the property exempted shall
thereupon be subject to taxation as other
city property.

Mayor Saunders presented the following
veto message:
MAYOR'S OFFICE,
DUBUQUE, Oct. 11, 1b02.
To the City Council:
GENTLEMEN --Alter a careful consideration
of all the circumstances involved in your
resolution of the 4th inst., exempting the
Hill Street Railway company for a number
of years from all city taxes, also instructing
the treasurer to refund the taxes of 1891
amounting to $343 90, in consideration that
said company will do what their franchise
las, s they must do, naively : to operate their
line and accommodate the public.
Because the road claims to be in financial
stress the city comes to her aid and wants to
exempt her taxes.
Is it the fault of the city that said com-
pany 1s so situated? No.
The court records show the history and
management of the road iu question.
The original organization being made in
bad faith, it shoe sthat he parties now own-
ing the road bought the bonds at some valu-
ation, may be they paid par, yet the mau-
agers of the road have actually given them
$43 000 stock, which, had it been sold for
Dash, the road could have paid its liabilities,
but as it is many of our business men and
taxpayers had to lose for material furnished
said road.
Besides a bona' of $-1,000 in cash and land
to the value of $ 4 0Ju was raised and given
to said compaoy by residents on the hill, so
that they would build and operate the road
for the accommodation of the public.
Has the company done so? No.
Has not the council passed resolution after
resolution instructing said company to
extend and operate their liue to West Du-
buque? And they have failed to even recog•
nize the order. Tne council should take
extreme measures and compel them to live
up to their charter, and not be offeriug them
inducements so that they can in the future
continue as they have in the past.
The city council is responsible for the prop-
er operation of said road and you owe it to
the people on the hill to see that said road
is operated according to their franchise.
I therefore return you the resolution pass-
ed October 4th remitting the taxes of the
Hill Street Railway company without my
signature, as it would establish a bad pre-
cedent, which I believe cannot be found in
the United States. and would lose to the city
thousands of dollars in the future.
Who has ever heard of the city giving
away a valuable franchise for no considera-
tion, and then want to exempt it from taxes
for a term of years.
It is absurd and unreasonable, and an in-
justice to the taxpayers of the city.
All of which is respectfully submitted.
CHAS. J. W. SAUNDERS, Mayor.

referred to the committee of the whole:
To the Hon. _Mayor and Council:
GENTLEMEN—Your committee on streets
beg leave to report that there are a number
of streets which the contractors thereof
want us to examine and accept. but said
streets ought to have been completed for the
last two months or more. but now it will be
impossible to have said streets rolled and
covered so as to complete the work.
Your committee would therefore ask for
instructions es to the propriety of examin-
ing said streets and accept same as far as
completed or wait until such time as said
streets can be completed and accepted by
the city. It will be a hardship on the con-
tractors to wait for their money until then,
and if said streets could be accepted so far as
they are now completed and the special
assessment levied against abutting property
for cost of same, the city could pay said con-
tractors a part of their money and hold the
balance back until said contracts are finally
completed.
Ald. Glab offered the following which was
referred to the street committee:
Resolved, By the city council of the city of
Dubuque: That a sidewalk four feet wide,

WHEREAS, The continuance of the electric

Street and West Dubuque Street railway, is
of great public im. ortance, and its opera-
tion has heretofore been attended with great
financial loss and there is •danger that its
operation will be abandoned altogether to
the great injury of the public and the serious
depreciatiou of the taxable value of prop-
erty adjarent thereto; therefore, be it
Resolved, By the city council of the city of
Dubuque, That the taxable value of the
electric street railway now owned by the
said E ghth Street and West Dubuque
Street railway, and of the extension to
Center street in West Dubuque, and
all other property whatsoever, appurtenant

press condition that within thirty days from

Also made the following report:
Your committee of the whole having had
under consideration the communication of
the Dubuque Trades and Labor Congress in
regard to the use of the third story of the
new Central engine house as a public hall,
respectfully report that as we understand
the purpose and intention of the city coun-
cil, the city will have and retain full and en-
tire control of that part of the building as well
as every other • portion of it. While the
council baa granted to Co. A, F,rst regiment
Iowa national guard, better known as the
"Governor's Greys," the privilege of using
the third story of the building as an armory
and drill room. We see no reason why the
hall cannot also under proper regulation be
used for other public purposes whenever the
city council shall grant permission. As a
large amount of valuable state and com-
pany property will be stored in said build-
ing, we believe that the military company
should be allowed the exclusive use of the
rooms in the rear of the large hall, and we
recommend that it be granted until other-
wise ordered by the council.
N e further recommend that the use of the
hall other than a drill room be restricted to
public gatherings for purposes and objects
of general interest to toe citizens and tax
payers of Dubuque, and not grant to private
societies, clubs. Judges or other private or-
ganizations. Report adopted.
The rules were suspended and Mr. Eugene
Adams addressed the council and objected
to assessment for improvement of Maiu

not abut on Main street
On motion the matter was referred to the

Mr. Robert Jass also addressed the council

Mayor Saunders presented the following
message to the council which was referred to
the committee of the whole and city attor-
ney : Duiw@UE. Ia., Dec. 5, 1892.
Gentlemen of the City Council:
For some time the question of waiving the
city's rights to purchase the Dubuque water
works has been before this council, and by
you referred to a committee of fifty cit zens,
who in an able report. requested the council
is.ht to
urchase It
toot no of the waive the greatest importance that
the city should own its own water system;
and I fully believe it to be the wish of all
citizens, and I also believe that all arrange-
ments could be made as to the details of
providing for the payment therefor. And I
earnestly request the council to pass the
proper resolution giving the Water company
the required notice, and also as to the ap-
pointment of the appraisers.
I further recommend the appointment of a
board of water commissioners of eight cit-
izens, and you may include the mayor of the
city to act with the commission to perfect in
detail the work, as to the issuance of bonds,
and it necessary get such legislative acts
passed to enable and provide for the egality
of the purchase. Such commission may also
Du-
buquehave the ht to
Water companyt
as to the purchasotiate with the of
their plant by agreement without apprais-
ers according to the full meaning and inten-
tion of section 7 of thecharter
wheneverofeaDu-
buque
Water company, and
ablereport of thenthe it may becommittee
be deemed asfu ther provided bty
section 7. on page 189 of the Revised Ordi
nances of the City of Dubuque, be adopted
or rejected by a for teat purpose.spAs a thele members held
of the
city council have a great deal of work to
perform pertaining to their duties of office,
therefore I only recommend the appoint-
ment of a board of water commissioners as
the same is done by other cities. Such com-
mission should at all times consist of able
men and be non-political. and have full con-
trol of the management iu every particular.
I have some few suggestions to make how
the money could be saved and how the
money may be secured to meet the payments.
and while it is based on the issuance of 5
per cent bonds yet I believe that such bonds
could be sold bearing a less rate of interest.
It is my firm belief hat it is of the great-
est importance for the welfare of the city to
own its own water system. There are no
great (*stacles in the way. The legislature
will no doubt pass an act to enable the city
of Dnbuque to issue water district bonds.
For instance : $50,000 to be paid by the city;
$50,000 at 5 per cent to be paid 1n five years;
$50,000 at 5 per cent to be paid in ten years;
$30 1,110 at 5 per cent. to be paid in fifteen
years; $50,01 0 at 5 per cent. to be paid in
twenty ytars.
The interest annually amounts for the first
iit would beo$7,51)1 «to otheh nextxt$5,000,ears
and
for the next $2 500.
The city now pays the water company on
an average of about $15,000, per year, and
in ten years it is safe to say we -vill have to
pay the company $20 000 per year.
Now let us see what the city saves: 25 000
$5,000 per year for flys years.... ....:
After five to ten years, $7.500 per ye'r 37,500
After ten years rate of $20,000, sav-
ing per year $10,10 75.000
After fifteen years at rate of $20,0 'u, 87 500
saving per year 117,t03
Total amount *225,010
The foregoing statement is not over esti-
mated but taken from actual figures, and it
can easily be seen that the city can save
enough from the amount paid to the Du-
buque Water company to purchase the plant
ane figure interest at 5 per cent. W hile it is
impossible to find out the correct revenue or
income of the water company from consum-
ers, but it is not less, or ought to be not less
then $21 000 per year. The consumers could be
doubled if the city would reduce the rates
one-half and adopt a meter system Yes. it
is safe to predict 5,001 consumers on the
above basis. Your outside revenue could and
would yield at least
$25.010 per
e veelar, andd
our people lea
water they would need for less
than one•half the present rates. Estimate
$10,000 annual operating expenses; $1.030
for new pipes and mains annually: $5 OuO an-
nual surplus for sicking fund. Now com-
pare with other savings from the city and
you will find that it is of great importance
to our city and our people to own the
water system. My figures are not exagger-
ated and are open for criticism.
Now is the time, and it is ever our duty
to work for the welfare of our
of the
eost
Therefore, I request you, gentlemen,
city council, to adopt the necessary resolu-
tions to bring about the foregoing results.
Respectfully,
C. J. W. SAUNDERS, Mayor.

CITY COUNCIL.
1892.
Adjourned Regular Session, Dec.
17, 1892.
Council met at 7:45 o'clock p. m.
Mayor Saunders in the chair.
Present.—Alds. Crawford, Cushing, Glab,
Olinger, Peaslee and Smith.
Mayor Saunders presented the following
message to the coon Dt: nC VIE, Dec. 17, 1892.
To the City Council:
GHNTL.hNEN—At a session of your honor-
able body held Dec. 13, a resolution was
passed and adopted, levying a special assess-
ment
ases-ment on abutting property for the improve-
ment of Clark street. On nd
that the city of Dubuque is charged i for on I the
coat of improving said street at its intersec-
tion with West Locust street, also at West
Seventeenth street, when in feet and in jus-
tice to the city and its citizens that part of
said improvement at the intersection of
West Locust street should
that partd tofo tbe
the
abutting property. As
timprovement at the intersection of West Lo-
cust street it should be charged to the abutt-
ing property, and as to that part of the im-
provement at the intersection of West
Seventeenth street, it is clearly illegal as it
is no part of the improvement of Clark
street, but of West Seventeenth street, and I
fail to find that a resolution
has
bee cooeen n
il
by this council or any p
of the city of Dubuque, ordering said of it mt
Seventeenth street or any portion
proved.
I am also reliably informed that the por-
tion of West Seventeenth street is not im-
proved according to the city's method or
specifications, but only to conform with the
grade of Clark street. In rt of the theresabove
e
facto, I return you that p
on
as applies to the assessment of the city of
Dubuque at the intersection of Clark and
West Seventeenth street as clearly illegal,
erroneous and unjust, as it was never or-
dered by the council or any
e.
I also return you that portion of the reso-
lution as applies to the intersection of West
Locust street, as that part is legally ordered
improved by the resolution orderind the im-
provement of West Locust street some years
ago, and also by the resolution ordering the
improvement of Clark street
said
in-
tersection was not improvedon
tn the former
resolution adopted ordering
Locust
street improved, then it is legal and proper
to imrove at the time Clara street was
proved. I ask your honorable body tom-
re -
consider that part of the resolution of the
special assessment for improvement of Clark
street as applies to the city of Dubuque for
any part ot the same and adopt the follow-
ing corrected assessment. Respectfully sub-
mitted, CHAS. J. W. SAUNDEIia, Mayor.

against the city of Dubuque for the improve-
ment of Clark street, at its intersection with

cepted as complete with the exception of the

again on call of the chairman
J. MAcnoNALD, Secretary.
W. J KNIGHT, Chairman.
Oct 13, 1892, pursuant to call of the chair-
man, your committee of fifty again met,
with W. J. Knight in the chair. and John
McDonald secretary, and a full attendance
of the members of it
The committee of seven presented its re-
port, which was as follows:
the level is of excellent quality
and costs but little for distribution. The
artesian well and pumping station at the
tont of Eighth street are not in accordance
with the r• quirements of the charter of the
water company, and may or may not be
counted in the appraisernent to be made.
There are various opinons as to the desira-
bility of the water, but many cities prefer
an artesian supply to a river source How •
ever, it does not seem to your committee
that the maintenance of the station cuts
any large figure in the general desirability
or expense of the system. The new pumping
station at Esgle Point taking water through
"points" sunk into low lying gravel strata
along the river is a common and popular
method of water supply. The water is clari-
fied and purified by percolating through the
deep gravelly and sandy strata, and is gen-
era,ly regarded as of a pure and desirable
character.
To the fluter by -orbs Committee of Fifty:
In the investigation undertaken l y your
sub -committee, the questions naturally aris-
ing first for consideration relate to the rights
and privileges of the city under the existing
ordinance or contract with the water com-
pany, and upon these questions your com-
mittee have reached the following conclu•
sions :
1. That nothing short of an absolute and
formal waiver 1-y the city can destroy or im-
pair its right at any time during the remain-
ing twenty-eight years of the charter to pur-
chase the water works at its actual value,
exclusive of the franchise, to be fixed by
appraisernent in case of disagreement in the
manner provided by section 7 of the ordi-
nance; that the provision in said section
forbidding the sale to any other parties
without first giving the city the refusal at
the same price, is unquestionably an addi-
tional privilege granted to the city, and the
failure of the city to avail itself of such re-
fusal in no way waives or affects the right
under the former provision to purchase at
any time subsequently at an agreed or ap-
praised value; the only effect of the failure
to avail itself of such refusal being to au-
thorize the sale to other parties at the price
named, which parties would then occupy the
shoes of the present company and be de-
pendent upon aid subject to the same or-
dinance with all its conditions, including
the right of the city to purchase the works
at their actual value, excluding the value of
the franchise.
2. That while at present, on account of its
debt already exceeding the constitutional
limit, the city cannot procure funds with
which to purchase said works by the issue of
bonds in the usual form creating an absolute
indebtedness, your committee behave that
in view of the doctrine announced in the
decision of the supreme court in Burlington
Water Co. vs. Woodward, 49 Iowa 58, the
funds can be procured by pledging the in-
come of the water works and the proceeds
inter-
estof a on he bonddxto
and tpayment tion of a proper
sinking fund.
It being apparent then that the city does
not lose its right to purchase the water
works at the present value of the material
and appliances by tailing to purchase at any
given time, or reason of any transfer of
the property to ya new company, the next
question to be determined is :
Shall the city take steps to secure the
works now, or wait until it is in a better
financial condition to purchase?
What are the considerations in favor of an
immediate purchased Are the plans of the
present company for the water supply un-
desirable and insufficient, and the
outlay for their extension simply
piling up their cost to the city without as-
sisting to create a good, substantial, com-
trehensive he sooner the city purchases economical system
and enters up-
on a different system the better.
Your committee believes that it is not
necessary or desirable to make any material
chaniAll thethe method
furnished waterf the
supply.by
The Eagle Point pumping station has a
pumping capacity of 3 000 000 gallons per
day. The Eighth street station has a capac-
ity of 2,000,000 gallons per day, and adding
to this the amount of water furnished by
the level and its reservoir, a full future sup-
ply of water by the present system would
seem to be assured. It does not, therefore,
seem to your committee that immediate ac-
tion is neces ary for the purchase of the
works, either to secure a full supply of water
or to head off a useless outlay under a sys•
tem that the city would have to abandon
when it came into possession of the works.
Nor would there seem to be any want of
power or authority in the city to enforce
from the company a sufficient supply of
good water to all parts of the city. Section
6 of the ordinance provides: "And it at any
time during the continuance of this charter
the water of said level shall be unwhole-
some, or the quantity thereof insufficient to
supply the demands of the city, then said
parties shall be required to furnish a suf-
ficient supply from the main channel of the
Mississippi river north of Seventh street in
said city, and to construct and use for that
purpose engines and pumps of a sufficient
capacity to force the water through the
pipes to any part of the city. And whenever
said parties tail to furnish the quantity of
water sufficient to supply the demands of
the city and its citizens, or tail to comply
with every requirement of the ordinance,
then the council may, by resolution, forfeit
the rights hereby granted.
While another provision of the charter
would seem to subject the power of the
council to forfeit the charter rights of the
company to a decision of the courts, it is
nevertheless apparent that it is not neces
eery for the city to buy the water works in
order to enforce an adequate service. It has
the power to enforce a sufficient service
from the presznt company or any company
that may purchase the rights of the present
company.
The only material question, then, in the
matter is:
Should the city buy now as a matter of
econommunicipality nd auddfor the private consumerfinaial polio, for s
of the water:
This is simply a question of the cost of the
works and the net income therefrom. To
get at these facts is of course adillicult prob-
lem for your committee. It is impossible
for them to determine what the appraisers
provided for in the charter will fix upon as
the value of the water works plant
de
from the franchise. Andithis tecimty andagers of
s to
the water company
give) any information as to the receipts aavd
expenditures of the company•
done our best to avoid mere rumors or spec
ulations as to the value of the works or the
gross or net income of the company. But
Adjourned Regular Session, Jan. 6, 1893.
in default of any direct information from
the company upon these points, we are com-
pelled to fall back upou comparative esti-
mates, as shown by similar plants in other
cities of about the same population and
needs as Dubuque.
Your committee understands that the
only question that can come be-
fore the appraisers is the value
of the material—pipes, machinery and
appliances as respects their present worth
in turnishiug the water supply. If there
have been auy costly experiments, if there
have been any expensive app.iances, that are
now of little value in fnrnisuing water to the
city, they are worth only in an appraise-
ment, what it would cost the city to secure
the ; same amount of water by other
appliances; not what they may have cost
the company. The value of the plant is
simply relative to the work that it does, or
is capable of doing, as compared with other
methods. And this, doubtless, will be the
view taken by the board of appraisers that
may be selected.
To know, therefore, what it has cost cities
of approximate population, probable
growth similar situation, and general needs,
to secure an equal supply of water, is
undoubtedly to ascertain what an equitable
appraisement would fix as the value of these
works.
On this point your committee has made con-
siderable inquiry and looked up a good deal
of data. We have examined the publish-
ed statements of all the water companies
throughout the United States, and have also
consulted water works' engineers and manu-
facturers of water supplying machinery.
Estimates of the latter as to the cost of a
water plant sufficient for the needs of a city
similarly situated as Dubuque; with ap-
proximate population, and prospects of in-
crease, with similar probable expense for
laying pipe; approximate number of miles
of pipe, and generally with larger capacity
of pipe; about the same number of hydrants
and greater capacity of machitery—placed
the cost of such plants, when new and ef-
ficient, at from $200,000 to $250,000. This
estimate is borne out by the published re-
ports as to other cities, a few of which we
will give :

annual expense of $16,000.
Estimating from these figures, your com-
mittee believes that a committee of fair ap-
praisers, taking full cognizance of the
rights of the city under the charter, and of
the present general condit on of the material
and methods of supply, would fix upon the
neighborhood of $2u0,000 as the equitable
value. Can the city afford to take the works
at that price? That depends upon the pres-
ent and probable income.
Your committee has been unable to secure
from the company any direct information
upon this point, after several interviews and
inquiries, although courteously and pleas-
antly received by the company's officers.
Not caring, however, to base its report upon
street speculations and rumors, it has indus-
triously looked for the information in quar•
ters deemed authoritative or well informed,
and feels that its information is approxi-
mately correct. There has been a large ad-
dition to the number of private consumers
within the past two or three years;
and in the extension of the mains
and of sewers the use of the water by the
city is rapidly growing. The management
ot the company has undoubtedly been fairly
economical, and the amount of net income
as compared with gross receipts is as large,
probably, as could be shown The assess-
ment of the company by the pity has been
upon the basis of $250,000, and the city and
county taxes paid by the company are
about $5,500 per annum.
Your committee has good reason for be-
lieving that counting out expenses and
taxes, and $1,200 or $1,500 annually paid for
an extension of the level under the com-
Adjourned Regular Session, Jan. 6, 1593. 9
parry's contract, the net income of the com-
pany at present is not far from $18,010 per
annum. The city pays the company annual-
ly for water supply about $1:3,000, and there
are 1,150 private consumers, whose gross
payments we have no way of ascertaining.
We believe we have good authority, how-
ever, for saying that the net income is real-
ly about *18 000.
These figures show as follows:
Present net income $18,000
Interest on $200,000 at 6 per cent 12,000
Profit to city on that invest par an..$ 6,L01
Add county taxes which would not
have to be deducted from net rev-
enue 2,7'10
And the profit on the present income
would be, per annum $ 8 700
There will undoubtedly be a constant and
large increase in the public and private use
of the water, with a large increase in the net
income. With a careful and economical
management by the city, this increase of in-
come would go tar towards putting in ex-
tensions and improvements, leaving, say
$7,000 per annum to be applied to the dis-
charge of the purchase obligations.
Now a to the plan for purchase: If the
city was in a condition to issue her bonds
and use her legitimate credit, she couldread-
ily secure the means of purchase at 4 or 5 per
cent. But that being impossible. it is prob-
able that any plan adopted would require an
interest charge of 6 per cent. On this basis
we have authority for saying that means
will be advanced to the city by her own citi-
zens to buy the works on something like the
following proposition:
The city to raise by special tax $50,000 of
the $20),000 required. The other $110,000 to
be supplied by some of our citizens upon a
pledge of the revenues from the water works,
and such revenue as it may choose to raise
annually by a special tax to reimburse the
advances of money made. It is, in the judg-
ment of your committee,entirely practicable
to formulate a plan to do this under the
decision of the supreme court in the Bur-
lington case, that would avoid the legal diffi-
culties under the constitutional limitation
of indebtedness. apprais-
ers
would be the situation if the app
ers would assess th., value in the neighbor-
hood
$200 000. ap-
praismentcou d not be had,asuppose fair
and thatthe
value should be assessed at $210,01.0 The
figures would then show: 00

,8
Net income $18.000
Increased by county taxes
$20,700
Interest on $251,000 at 6 per cent15,000 •
Balance $ 5,700
The net income, then, would still more
than pay 6 per cent. on the cost: but exten-
sions and improvements would probably
have to be paid out of an increased revenue
or out of the general fund of the city until
the interest charge was reduced by pay-
ments by the city upon the principal.
The city is not bound to accept an un-
favorable appraismeut. But whether she
loses her right to purchase by refusing to
accept the appraismeut is a point that your
committee has not thought necessary to in-
vestigate or discuss, but is a point that the
ledetermine before entering al advisors of the upon the appraishould e
ment.
Nor has your committee considered the
question whether the ordinance under which
the present company is acting carries with
it au exclusive ch your
committee suggests tshould receon vic
e careful
consideration.
No company owning the water works can
afford to do anything to arouse the just
indignation of the people and of the city
council And with the power of the council
over the company, and with the right of the
city to buy the works and arbitrate the
price, there seems to he abundant guarantee
of an eventual sale to the city at the just
value under the charter provisions. Bo long
as the city does not relinquish its right to
purchase the works, no actual sale is likely
to be made at an exhorbitant figure. No
company will he anxious to pay any fancy
price for the property in contravention of
the desire of the people and the just rights
of the pity. The city can therefore, if
it chooses, afford to rest upon its rights:
secure whatever legislative action. or make
whatever fiu• ncial provision, may seem
necessary to put it in condition to purchase,
and then enforce a just bargain through
negotiation or appraismeut.
No probable concessions upon the charter
rates by any new company would be equiv-
alent to the value of the municipal control
of the works. What may seem to be a rea-
sonable schedule of rates with a limited pop-
ulation and under a restricted use may be a
very onerous charge under a great extension
of population and of use. All test'mouy
concurs in the desirability of municipal con-
trol of the water supply for our cities. And
to give the people of Dubuque unlimited use
of the water at absolute cost has surely in it
more of promise than the beat bargain thata
can now be obtained of any p corpora-
tion. The just rights of the city under the
charter are apparently of vistly greater ad-
vantage, present and prospective, than any
propos.d concessions upon the chartersched-
ule of rates. And the re;ord of annual ex-
pense as given above, under municipal and
corporate management, shows that thestate-
ment of extravagance in muuicipal manage-
ment are mere bugbears to aid corporate
schemes
Your committee would therefore recom-
mend the passage of the following resolu-
tions:
Resolved, As the sense of the committee of
fifty appointed by the mayor and council to
consider the water question:
1. That the council should not surrender
the right of the city to buy the works by ap-
praisement under the terms of the ordin-
ance
2 That the mayor and counci, should, as
soon as it is deemed expedient, it unable to
agree upon proper terms, give notice to the
water company of its purpose to buy the
works under the provisions for appraisement
of the ordinance.
3. That securing a fair price by negotia-
tion or ent, the council. on ap-
proval by popularmvote, buy the works upon
the plan herewith outlined, or some better
one that may be offered.
4. That the management tof the
d be given
when bought by ay
into the hands of a carefully selected non-
partisan commission, and so main a[ned.

Health officer Wieland presented the fol-
lowing report, which was ordered published
in the official proceedings and referred to the
hoard of health:
To the• Honorable Mayor and Members of the
City Council:
GENTLEMEN: You will hereby flod attach-
ed the conclusions arrived at as the result of
the bacteriological and chemical examina-
tion of the various supplies of water, as
instructed by your honorable body at your
last regular meeting:
co crxsioNs. •
Artesian -1. The artesian water coming
from a great depth (more than 100 feet) and
having traversed perhaps several hundred
mi es underground before reaching us, is as
pure and wholesome as any water which can
be obtained.
Reservoirs -2 The water from the two
reservoirs contains nothing objectionable
from a sanitary stand point. This, which
belongs to ths class of spring water, issues
from many subterranean crevices and caves,
and ought to be of most wholesome for
drinking purposes.
It has been claimed that numerous water
closets and cess pools on the bluffs commun-
icate with the subterranean body of water
supplying the reservoirs. If this is the case
the amount of refuse is so insignificant in
proportion to the immense body of water as
to disappear in it and elude the most deli-
cate tests and the danger for the present is
almost, if not quite, nothing It must, how-
ever, be admitted that in the future as the
bluff become more densely populated and
the amount of water perhaps less, there may
come a time when this, one of our best
supplies of drinking water, shall be-
come contaminated, and your hon-
orable body ought to have the
power to prevent the construction of any
new water -closets, sinks or cess -pools which
open into the crevices and subterranean
lakes of our bluffs.
Eagle Point -3. The water from the Eagle
Point pumping station is obtained from
drive -wells sunk through the sand near the

Regular Session, April 6, 1S93.
river's bank. It is often supposed to be
river water which filters hack into the shore
through the sand; but it is much more
probably ground water. which, after having
fallen upon the earth's surface in the shape
of rain and snow, has percolated down
through the upper porous lavers until it has
reached an impervious stratum of clay or
rock and is now moving ow slowly
toward
the which it suppliesperhaps
underneath the bed of the latter. Many
similarly situated works in other cities have
been shown by experiments to derive their
supply from this ground water. This is
the same water which supplies our shal-
low wells. many f which are known to be
unsanitary, and it the water -hearing strata
should be found to dip towards Eagle Point
that would accouut for the pollution of the
water shown by chemical and bacterio-
logical examination. The fact that
the water in onr wells rises and
falls with the river does not disprove the
ground water theory of the the origin of our
well water, for the increased pressure
of the rising river dams back the ground
water and causes it to ascend in the earth,
as the water in wells near the ocean fluctu-
ates with the tide without becoming salty.
The various plants found in the sediment,
such as algae, diatoms, contervae, etc., as
well as the amsebae, peramecia and
other animalcules, also the larger animals
called daphmie are perfectly harmlesss. The
majority of the bacteria are probably also
inocuous; but their number indicates that
the filtration is not perfect, as the ground
water should contain few if any bacteria
after passing through five or six feet of
earth. if many bacteria are present they
must come either from a contaminated soil
or from cracks or crevices in the earth, and
if harmless bacteria can find their way in,
those which are dangerous can do so equally
well. While no specific disease germs were
found, the water is still objectionable on
account of the proportion of liquifying bac-
teria which evolve noxious gasses during
their putrifying action. These bacteria of
decomposition when drank are liable to
produce similar effects on the in, es nal con-
tents causing flatulence and diarrhoea.
Perhaps purer water could be obtained at
Eagle Point by driving the tubes to a deeper
water -bearing stratum. Filteration would
be another very good means of improving
the water and making it unobjscttooable.
Or the water could be led through maius not
communicating with those carrying the
other two kinds of water, and be used only
for mechanical purposes. It has been
claimed that the Eagle Point water cannot
be forced into the mains, but the opposite
view based on the occasional turbidity of
the water in the center of the city is con-
firmed by the fact that the level of the water
in the reservoir has been raised Live feet by
the pumps at Eagle Point. It may be that
this turbidity is caused by dirt which had
been washed into the new pities at Eagle
Point during their laying, but this again
would only prove the communication of the
different systems.
The water from Eagle Point in its present
condition should by no meaus be led into
residences. as the mass of modern authority
is to the effect that citie+ have a right to de-
mand water which is above all suspicion,
and experience has abundantly shown that
it ie dangerous to have two sets of water -
pipes In a house, one for good and the other
for bad water. F. W WIELAND.

Mayor Saunders delivered the following
valedictory :
GENTLEMEN OF TIIE CITY COUNCIL - After
two terms as alderman and two terms as
mayor of this city, I am about to perform
my last official act. While I do not wish to
go Into details eulogizing the active work
done by the city council during those years,
as there might have been some work done
that might not have been of public neces-
sity for the present, yet [ believe that a ma-
jority of the people will some time in the
future see the wisdom of the council during
the past few years
Personally, I was opposed to a great
amount of work done by the city last year.
but when the most of said work was ordered,
after petitions from abutting property
owners were presented, and asking and
willing to pay their share of the improve-
ment, I did not think it good policy to inter-
fere with the improvements, and I am sure
that the city has received full value for the
money expended last year.
There is no immediate danger as to the
city's future prosperity. Her financial
standing is good abroad as well as at home,
and where a few years ago the city had to
pay 8 per cent. interest, now all necesary
funds may be secured at 5 per cent.
The fire department is in excellent con-
dition. both as to equipment and officers and
men.
I have found the police department to
compare with the b,st of other cities and
was unable to make any improvement over
my predecessor.
The city engineer's office should receive
careful attention as to appointments, as it is
one of the most prominent offl:es in the
city, as a good engineering department is
invaluable to the city.
the road department has been a very large
expense to the city and will continue to be,
as the city will have to keep pace with local
improvements. There is one evil that I have
noticed while in the council, and, that is the
merciless combination of a majority of the
street contractors, who take as many con-
tracts as they can start to work on, but
never finish them according to contract as
to time of completion, quality of work and
quality of material.
It seems that the majority of them depend
on their natural amount of "bluff" and "in-
fluence" (which they have in untold quanti-
ties) to get their contracts accepted netore
the same are completed according to con-
tract
I would recommend to our successors to
have all alleys macadamized, as the city
would be under no expense tor grading, and
would also urge our successors to try and
have the legislature paws a law to assess all
the costs of street improvements to the
abutting property owners as is done in other
states.
I also wish and hope that the incoming
council will at an early day get used to that
double issue of political life, namely, peti-
tions signed by prominent citizens tor the
opening of streets, etc., that,would be a very
large expense to the city and then in less
than three months atter the "prominent"
citizens shout ther lungs weak for "reform."
As my weals and woes will always be
identical with the citizens of our fair Key
City, my good wishes will always be with
Dubuque, for here is my home while I live
and at Linwood I want to be at rest when
my last roll call is made.
I cannot conclude without returning to the
members of this council. and to the different
city officers my heartfelt acknowledgement
for the kindness and courtesy they have
always shown me, and I desire to give them
all my grateful thanks for the assistance
they have always given me in the discharge
of my official duties,and to acknowledge the
Regular Session, April 6, 1893. 41
zeal and ability with which they have always
performed the duties incumbent upon h sm.
With the best wishes for the success f our
successors in which I know you heartily
join, I now vacate this place and introduce
to you my successor.
Mayor Saunders delivered the oath of
office to Mayor -elect A. W. Daugherty.
Aid. Cushing delivered the following
farewell address:
MR. MAYOR AND GENTLEMEN OF 1 HE COUNCIL
—Two years ago about this time I was called
here to take the oath of office as alderman of
this (et present) beautiful city. To -day 1
retire—but not alone. but with all whose
time has expired. Better so. We are
known as the one hundred thousand dol-
lar council, and it is better to retire together
to see if our successors can do better or
show more for money expended. We leave
no tracks behind for them to cover, only the
interest on the above amount. But to re-
turn: in the two years I have served with
you, I have (as you know) voted as my con-
science dictated on important matters, by so
doing making many enemies and perhaps
friends, and have been called everything
from a crank to a gentleman: but that can
only be expected by one who tries to serve the
people before himself, at least it so appears
to me. There is no doubt in my mind there
are some among you who have a friendly
feeling toward me, and I can at least say
that I have for you, and will never forget
the kindness shown me while I have been a
member of this honorable body, and can
only regret having had cause to wrangle
with you. where there was a difference of
opinion: but bygones are bygones and can
be forgotten.
To the hold -over candidates I must say
that though the preseut council may have
overreached the mark a little, and we have
beautified our city so much in so short a
time, I still believe there is material among
you that will keep the ball a rolling and will
not let the city die for want of improve-
ments. I thank you very kindly, gentle-
men, for the many courtesies shown me,
and now say good-bye as one of you, and
hand over my chair to my successor, Mr.
Vogel, one of the citizens.
AIdermen Smith, Stoltz and Peaslee also
made a few farewell remarks.
Ald. Glab offered the following which
was unanimously adopted:
N IIRREkS, The mayor and five of our
brother aldermen are about to Lever their
official relations with us. and
WHEREAS, During their official relations
with us they have worked untiringly for the
whole city and sacrificed their time for the
welfare of the public, being ever mindful of
the duties imposed on them; therefore,
Resolved, That we tender to them our heart-
felt thanks for their unselfish aevotion to
duty and may they be as successful in
their private life as has been their public
service is the sincere wish of their remain-
ing brethren
Ald. Crawford also made a few compli-
mentary remarks in reference to the retiring
aldermen.
Mayor Daugherty delivered the oath of
office to the following.
James Butler, alderman First ward.
Philip F. Ryder, alderman Second ward.
A. Vogel, alderman Third ward.
J. B. Powers, alderman Fourth ward.
John Lillig, alderman Fifth ward.
Mayor Daugherty then delivered the fol-
lowing inaugural address:
GENTLEMEN OF THE CITY COUNCIL AND FEL-
LOW CITIZENS OF DUBUQUE: By the will of
the majority of the citizens of Dubuque ex-
pressed at the polls in the recent municipal
election, I have been placed in the grave and
responsible position of mayor of our city
for the ensuing year, and have just taken
the sacred oath of office to administer the
affairs pertaining to my duties as such with
justice imoartie 1 toward all, adhering strict-
ly in all things to the welfare of the city's in-
terests in my ad i Migration t t its municipal
affairs.
In assuming the duties of the office of
mayor I almost tremble when i consider the
weight of the great responsibility placed up-
on me at this time, nor does the responsi-
bility rest alone with me. The alder
men who compose this council are in
a degree as responsible for the manner in
which the affairs of the city are conducted,
and the.r responsibility is no less in magni-
tude than the mayor himself; as upon you,
ina great measure. depends the success of a
wise administration. The eyes of every citi-
zen in Dubuque (Ido not use the term citizen
in the sense of a party organization) are
turned upon the acts of this council and
every man will be a critic to see that we car-
ry out the measures of retrenchment and re-
form advocated by the people for the wel-
fare of the city.
It will become the new administration to
consider caretudy the questions so forcibly
brought out by the people in all matters per-
taining to retrenchment and reform in the
administration of our city's municipal af-
fairs.
The terms "retrenchment" and "reform"
involves the idea of a former extravagant
and lavish expenditure of the public money.
Let us contemplate for a moment how far
and in what manner this retrenchment and
reform is demanded. A man owes his
neighbor a thousand dollars to pay which
when due he has nothing in sight It he
has been squandering his earnings and
consequently made no preparation to
meet his obligation he must begin to re-
trench. Now it would hardly be expected
of him to retrain from eating or to pay the
debt by relinquishing the common necessa-
ries of lite. He may by economical instead
of lavish expenses in his habits, curtail and
thereby save a sum equal to the amount of
his debt and be able to discharge it.
This Is a fair illustration of what I under-
stand by the terms retrenchment and reform
and is a fair business proposition as it relates
to reform in the ex. euditure of the public
money in the administration of city affairs.
It money has been misappropriated or used
lavishly where it is not needed, correct it by
retrenchment. The people demand that for
the money expended they should have value
received in good, substantial improvements,
something tangible to sho w for it.
No man of any business capacity will corn -
plain of a good, substantial improvement
made if eccomplished at a reasonable cost.
The management of the city's affairs in the
past is a matter of history with which you
are all conversant, and I am not disposed to
ci iticise the past, even if there is a cause for
criticism. We must take things as we fiud
them, and if there have been errors commit-
ted in the past, profit by experience and cor-
rect them for the future.
I trust, gentlemen,you will do your duty, I
shall endeavor to do mine. I shall need
your counsel and advice in many ways in
the performance of my duties. and I ask your
kind forbearance. I also invite the council
and advice of all my friends and citizens in-
terested in the welfare of a thorough busi-
ness administration of the city's affairs.
Much of the care and responsibility in con-
ducting the labor incident to my office will
be relieved by a careful and wise selection
of proper officials to fill the various positions
to which you will be called in your official
capacity to elect. Too much careful con-
sideration cannot be indulged in, in your de-
liberations in the selection of good efficient
and well qualified men to 1111 their respeo-
43 Regular Session April 6, 1893.
tive positions. To start aright is halt the
journey finished.
Gentlemen, in conclusion let me say, I
trust in our relations with each other dur-
ing the coming year there will be no discord
or nothing to mar the progress of a good
business administration and nothing to in-
terrupt the most cordial and harmonious in-
tercourse as business men having in charge
the affairs of this growing and prosperous
city which we have been selected to conduct
for the ensuing year, so that when the labor
of the year is done we may have the satis-
faction of knowing we have as the city's
public servants, done our duty well and
faithfully.
Ald. Crawford moved that the council pro-

Present—Alda. Butler, Crawford, Glab,
Lillig, Nicks, Powers, Ryder and Vogel.

Ald Ryder moved to postpone the letting

ing. Carried.
Ald. Powers, chairman of the special com-
mittee to investigate the outrage at the
opera house, reported as follows:
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the
City Council:
The committee appointed by the city coun-
cil to investigate the proceedings connected
with the performance of the Cherry sisters
at the Grand opera house on the evening of
the l7th of May, report as follows:
That they have examined into the matter
carefully, and as completely and thoroughly
as possible, with a view to arrive at the ac-
tual facts, and as directed in the resolution
appointing us to "ascertain p lrticularly
whether the police officers and the manager
of the opera house were negligeut in their
duties."
A large number of witnesses were exam-
ined by us under oath, and their testimony
carefully taken by a shorthand reporter,
which has been preserved and can be writ-
ten out in long hand if desired.
We find the following facts from the evi-
dedce and our investigation:
That the troupe known as the Cherry sis-
ters had been criticised and their perform-
ance ridiculed largely by the public press in
the cities where they had performed prior
to their appearance here. The persons com-
prising the troupe, as tar as we could ascer-
tain, were of good character, and there is
nothing in the performance improper, but
that neither the play or acts or actors
possess much if any professional merit. The
people on .the stage did nothing to invoke
the improper and riotous reception they met
with from a small portion of the audience.
As soon as the play commenced, without
giving opportunity to determine whether it
was good or bad, it was interrupted by up-
roar, hooting, blowing of horns and the
throwing of vegetables of all kinds, and
missies and article, of various descrip-
tions upon the stage and even at the
performers. Water from a tire extinguisher
and shot, nails, a tin boiler and various
other articles were thrown on the stage.
This continued until they were compelled to
close the performance. We judge that a
large portion of the audience felt outraged
by the conduct of those engaged in this dis-
turbance, anticipating that while there was
not much merit in the performance they,
from its crudeness and lack of merit, might
have some genuine fun. The performers, it
seems. did not court or desire the notoriety
arising from the disturbance. The ladies of
the troupe became very much frightened.
One of them had been bit in the face with a
stream of water. and another was cut on the
hand by a missile thrown onto the stage.
After the cup tain went down and it was an-
nounced by the manager of the troupe that
performance would not proceed, the crowd
which had caused the disturbance and brok-
en up the performance continued around the
oi,era house, jeering and hallooing, so that
the ladies of the troupe, it appears, were
afraid co leave the house to go to their hotel.
The police, however, interfered, kept the
crowd back and protected the ladies while
they took their carriage which was drawn
swiftly up the alley to Ninih street, thence
to Locus street, to avoid the crowd, to the
Paris hotel, where the troupe was stopping.
Incredible as it may seem, many of those
who had caused the disturbance and driven
the performers from the stage, followed
them to their hotel, passing down Main
street, arriving at the hotel about the same
time the carriage containing the troupe got
there. The noise and confusion caused a
large gathering in the street around the
hotel, those creating the disturbance jeering,
hooting and throwing eggs into the carriage,
and when the ladies were getting out one of
them was struck by an egg. as was also the
landlord of the hotel, wh was assisting
them into the house, and the driver of the
hack was struck with a stone and his hack
damaged. After the ladies got into the ho-
tel the crowd rushed into it, hooting and
throwing eggs until they were driven out by
the landlord, and finally a policeman came,
when it dispersed. ft is needless to say that
a disturbance of this kind was a breach of
the peace, a violation of law, and renders
those participating in it liable to criminal
punishment, which they richly deserve and
should certainly receive. It also reflect
Adjourned Regular Session, .May 24, 1893. 59
upon the city. its good name, morality, the
orderly behavior of its'citizens and the en-
forcement of law and order by its offi ;ere.
The ,conclusive portion of the resolution
under which your committee was appointed,
required us to examine more particularly
into the conduct . f the police officers, who
receive their appointment from the city, and
the manager ot the opera house, whose li-
cense to conduct it is obtained from the same
source. It appears that the manager of the .
opera house, with full knowledge ot this
troupe and the unfavorable criticisms made
wherever they had performed, entered into
an arrangement with its manag.r by which
he was to receive 50 per cent. of the net
profits, and that he at least made eugges-
ttons se to notices extensively published in
the newspapers of the city in regard to the
troupe, and indicated that large license
would be given to those attending, and in
short that a general gond time could be had
by those so disposed. No doubt this con-
tributed largely to the unfortunate result
which followed. The opera house had
also been prepared for such an oc-
currence by removing and changing
the scenery so that it could
not be damaged. The manager of the opera
house applied previously to the city marshal
for a squad of police to attend at the opera
house that evening, for which tickets were
given by him to the marshal. There seems
to be a disagreement between the marshal
and the manager of the opera house as to
what took place between them in regard to
police. The marshal testified that the man-
ager of the opera house said: "Everything
was to go in the opera house that night ex-
cept damage to the property." This is de-
nied by the manager of the opera house.
The city marshal did send a squad of police
to the opera house, telling them substantial-
ly that there was to be a free time; that
everything was to go except injury to prop-
erty, and that they were to act under the
directions of the manager of the opera
house, and this was the understanding of the
police when they went to the opera house.
The manager of the opera house was in and
around the opera house during the perform-
ance and saw the poli -eman there and never,
at least publicly, objected to any of the dis-
turbance; never demanded that those who
were
creating
and never askshould
ed the as ist nceof the police.
The captain of the police stated underoath
that ordinarily he would have stopped the
disorderlstood that
everythingconduct,
to go free except but be rdamage to
property, and that he was to act under the
directions of the manager of the opera house.
The greatest outrage was what took place
after the close of the performance when the
ladies of the troupe were going to their
hotel, and after they arrived at the hotel. It
appears that the police officers did not ac-
company the troupe to the hotel. They tes-
tify that they saw the troupe, as they sup.
posed, safe on Ninth street, and returned
and saw the crowd on Eighth and Main
streets, and had no idea or intimation that
the crowd would follow the troupe to
their hotel, and the various officers were or-
dered then on duty to their respective
beats. It appears that one officer at the time
occurrence at the opera house, and when the
troupe arrived at the Paris Hotel, was on
duty on the beat which included the hotel,
but he was not the reular officer f that
beat, but had been sent down specially that
evening on account of the absence of the
regular officer. He says he wason another
ppart of his beat when the company arrived
at the hotel, and when be passed the hotel a
large portion of the crowd bad left and he
immediately dispersed the balance. It also
appears that the city marshal was not pres-
ent at the opera house, as was expected, un-
til near the close of the performance, having
been kept away unexpectedly by other
duties. The landlord at the hotel testifies
that they telephoned immediately upon the
arrival of the crowd around his hotel to the
city hall for the police and patrol, and was
answered that it would be sent immediately,
that no police appearing they telephoned
several times and were informed at last that
the police would be down on the next car.
It appears that the city marshal was not at
the city hall when the telephones were re-
ceived, and the policeman there in charge
telephoned to the central station to the cap-
tain of police, but it does not appear that he
had yet returned from the opera house. It
seems that no policeman except the one on
the beat arrived at the Paris Hotel until the
crowd had entirely dispersed.
It seems to us that the general nature of
the performance, in connection with the
newspaper reports in regard to it, and the
method of advertising it in the city papers
invited and to a large extent conduced to
and were instrumental in producing the
result that followed
It seems also that the manager of the
opera house ought not to have permitted
such a performance in the opera house, es-
pecially ought not to have indicated that
such license should be given to the crowd
attending.
it also appears to us that he should have
attempted to stop the disturbance. and to
have asked the aid ot the police to that end
it it could not be stopped without. and for
this reason he is justly liable to censure. It
is probably due to him to say that undoubt-
edly he did not suppose the disturbance
would gn to the extent it did, and that it
started quickly and increased so rapidly
he was somewhat confused. While we
think he should be censured we do not think
tis license
should be
ng of the kind should occur ome-
ur againunless E
WWe think also that it is questionable
whether the marshal should permit the po-
lre to be used under circumstances like
these, to countenance actions which might
lead to a riot or breach of the peace. It
seems to us that the proper thing for the
marshal to have said to the manager of the
opera house would have been that it the
police west to the opera house they went to
preserve order and must act upon their own
judgment and in accordance with their or-
dinary duty; otherwise it leaves the police
present subject to unjust censure, for they
are acting under particular instructions from
their superior, which are not known to
the people. There is also a question as to
whether the police should not have gone
whowth -
ever,he they could note to ir hotel; re reasonably anticipate
that the crowd would do the extraordinary
and outrageous thing of following the troupe
after they left the opera
house.
The whole proceeding was the result that is
almost certain to follow a departurefrom
to
the course of order and propriety, snd
permit lawlessness to any extent is inducing
and inviting it to the extreme. The man-
ager of the opera house and the police offi-
cers of the city should understand that they
show d carefully guard the morality and
good name of the city, and that if they do
the license oo so the f s

Ald. Crawford made the following minor-
ity report:
In the main I concur in the foregoing, re-
port, but consider it entirely too mild in its
censure of the total failure of the marshal
and police to make any effort to suppress
the riot at the opera house, and to protect
the helpless women who undertook to per-
form there from insult and Wary, or to
prevent the crowning outrage perpetrated
on them when they returned to their hotel
after their attempted entertainment had
been broken up. P. W. CRAwF •RD.
On motion the report of the committee
was adopted as read.

Ald. Ryder, chairman of the executive
committee of board of health, reported es
follows, which was adopted:
To the Honorable Mayor and City Council:
GENTLEMEN: Your committee of the ex-
ecutive board of health, to whom wee re-
ferred the matter of the condition of the
water supplied by the Dubuque Water com-
pany, beg leave to report that after a care-
ful consideration of the matter and a con-
ference with the Water company have come
to the conclusion that the cause of the condi-
tion of the water was caused by the mains
not being properly cleansed and flushed, and
the pressure on the pipes from the operation
of the pumps at Eagle Point has been so
strong that it causes the iron rust, etc., to
dissolve in the water, thus giving it a yellow
and cloudy appearance.
To avert this, the Water company has
agreed to try and furnish enough water from
their artesian well and the "level" for drink-
ing end household purposes, and only supply
water from the Eagle Point station in cases
of necessity, or when the supply from other
sources is insufficient. By this arrangement
on the part of the Water company we believe
that the city will have pure and wholesome
water, and that there will be no reason of
complaint in the future.
The Water company also agrees to put in
a plug at the end of their main in the alley
between Fourth and Fifth and Iowa and
Clay streets, and to properly flush said main,
all at their own expeuae, which we believe
will remove the cause of complaint in regard
to the water furnished to adjacent property
in that vicinity. PIIIL. RYDER,
