Y Roll_13 Part 1Continuation City of Dubuque Council Record Book No. 27 January 4, 1897 - December 23, 1897 December 2, 1897 Gentlemen:—The matter of the tele. phone ordinance of Mr. 11. W. Stewart has been referred to me for an opinion. I report as follows: I flnd from an exatnination of the council records that nn March 22, 1897, an ordinance was passed granting a franchise to operate a telephone com- pany to Mr. Stewart. This ordinance was not. and has never been accepted by Mr. Stewart as conditional in same and is not at present of any effect. Sub- sequent to the passage of same, an- other ordinance was introduced 1n the council which was read once, Septem- ber 25th. 1897. On September 30th, 1897, its second reading was commenced but on motion further reading and action on same was postponed and no action on the same has since been taken. It is at present not in effect. Then an ordinance to amend said ordinance of March 22d. 1897. was introduced and is now pending. amending said ordi- nance by striking section 14 and 15 as alleged and substantially. chang- ing other provisions of the same, and in addition thereto strikes out section 17. The question as I understand it is whether this ordinance to amend said ordinance of March 22d, 1897• can be legally passed under the circumstances: as the ordinance it amends Is not in force, It would not be a valid amend- ment. Then, it is different from an amend- ment tacked on to an ordinance be- fore its passage. This is an ordinance amending an or- dinance already passed. and is an in- dependent ordinance in Itself. and would have to be passed in conformity with the provisions of the new code, which provides that notice of applica- tion therefore shall be published once each week for four consecutive weeks in some newspaper. Then it substantially changes and repeals the ordinance of March 22. 1897. From these considerations It makes no difference whether the ordinance of March 22. 1897. is in effect or not, the said ordinance amending same would have to be passed in conformity with the new code. 1 would recommend t'tat if the coun- cil wish to adopt such an ordinance that an entire:v new ordinance be drafted and pasEed in conformity with the new code. Respectfully submitted, ThOMAS H. DI7FFY, City Attorney. Aid. Crawford moved that further action on said ordinance be postponed until next April. Carried. REPORTS Or COMMITTEES. Ald.

In endeavoring to carry out the in- structions of the council your commit- tee has had several meetings for the special purpose of the investigation and has examined a large number of wit- nesses, including all persons who were, or might be supposed to know any- thing, or be able to throw any light on the subject, and all persons whom Mr. Broadhurst desired to have testify. A copy of the substance of the testi- mony taken accompanies this report. It was all taken under oath, duly adminis- tered. From the pay rolls certified to the council by Inspector Broadhurst, it ap- pears that the following amounts were reported by him to be due to the several persons hereinafter named, among oth- ers, for work in his department, to -wit: For the last of June, 1897— James Austin For the first half of July— R.

He was unable to produce, before your • committee, any person who ever work- ed with any of the men named, or had ever seen or heard of such parties. All of the men regularly employed by the city on sewers during the past sea- son, and quite a number of others, at the request of Mr. Broadhurst, were brought before the committee, and all stated under oath that they had never worked with, or knew anything about, or had ever heard of the men in whose favor the warrants taken out by Mr. Broadhurst were drawn. The warrant in favor of the persons last named in the list above given, F. Brake, was called for by Mr. Broad- hurst, but was not delivered to him by the city auditor, for the reason, at first, that Broadhurst had no order for it. He afterwards returned and exhibited to the auditor a paper purporting to be a receipt signed by F. Brake for the amount named in the warrant. On being questioned as to the identity of Brake, Broadhurst stated that he knew the man well—that they had worked to- gether several months at the new brew- ery of the Dubuque Malting Co.; that he, was a brother of Tony Brake, the bricklayer who was killed three years ago while working on the brewery; that 1/ he had advanced the money to Brake because the latter was going to get married and leave town; that he thought Brake was now living at Dyers- ville. Broadhurst subsequently stated to the auditor, as testified to by the latter, that he had reached Brake at Dyersville by telephone, and that Brake had agreed to come in the following Monday if Broadhurst would pay his ex penses, which the latter stated he had agreed to do. Mr. Brake, however, failed to appear at the time named by Broadhurst. During the investigation by your com mittee, Mr. Brake, in response to the request by letter of Mayor Duffy, carne before the committee in the presence of Mr. Broadhurst. On being sworn, he stated that he had lived and been employed at Dyersville since last Feb- ruary; that his name was Joseph Brake, and not Fred Brake, as given by Broad- hurst; that he was a brother of Tony Brake, who was killed at the brewery; that no other brother of his had ever lived or worked in Dubuque; that he knew Mr. Broadhurst well, as they had worked together five or six months on the new brewery of the Malting corn- pany; but that he had never worked a day for the city of Dubuque in his life, either during October last, or at any other time; that Broadhurst had never advanced him any money for work done for the city, nor had he (Brake) ever signed any receipt to Broadhurst for money so advanced; that the sig- nature to the receipt presented by Broadhurst to the city auditor for $l:i.5i1 was not his. On being questioned, in the presence of Brake. Broadhurst testified that the latter was not the man he had returned on his pay roll ns F. Brake; that he had supposed he was the•same person when he hired thy man who had worked for him, and tc whom he had advanced the amount 1,1, from the city. according to the pay rot!. Broadhurst stated further, under oath, that he could not account for his mistake as to the identity of the Brake. who appeared on the pay roll; that he knew nothing of him, or where he liv- ed, or could be found or heard uf. None of the sewer men regularly em- ployed by the city during the past season, all of whom were examined by your committee, had ever worked with any man by the name of Brake, or had ever heard of such a person. Nor had any of the other witnesses who tl•sti- fied before the committee. Diligent inquiry by members of the committee and other city officials has utterly failed to elicit any information as to the whereabouts or existence of the man, F. Brake, who is alleged by Mr. Broadhurst to have worked under him for the city during the month of October. No other person than Mr. Broadhurst can be found who ever heard of such a man. Under all the circumstances. your committee is compelled to reach thy• conclusion that he is purely an imagi- nary person. We are further compelled to express the opinion that none of the other persons on the sewer inspector's pay roll and named on the list herein- before given, ever worked for the city during the year 1897. If they are not also wholly creatures of Mr. Broad- hurst's imagination, they have been most successful in hiding all evidence that they ever existed from every one of whom your committee has sought information on the subject. Though every effort to obtain further light on the subject of this investiga- tion has been previously exhausted, your committee, at the two last ses- sions of the council, refrained from sub- mitting any report, in order to afford Mr. Broadhurst every possible chance to clear himself from the charge of the official misconduct, of which the facts disclosed, seemed to convict him. Our delay in reporting has produced, how- ever, no favorable result. In view of the result of our investi- gation, your committee submits the following recommendations: 1. That D. Broadhurst be removed from the position of sewer rnspector, and that that office he discontinued, and' that until further order of the council, the supervision of all sewers remain under the chief foreman of street work. 2. That his honor the mayor., be in- structed to demand. of Mr. Broadhurst the repayment of the sum of $120.45, the amount obtained by him on warrants _Regular Sessiun, December 23, 1897. 3l15 drawn in favor of persons, who, if they had any real existence, never performed any work for the city; and that in case Mr. Broadhurst neglects to make such repayment, the city attorney he in- structed to take the necessary steps to recover the same. 3. That the warrant No. 8578, drawn in favor of one F. Brake for alleged work in the month of October, 1897, for $13.50, be cancelled. It seems to your committee, very greatly to be regretted, that through oversight, or otherwise, the regulation adopted by the council last summer re- quiring all foremen on street work to make a daily report every night, giving the name, ward and residence of every man employed under him, with the amount due for that day, together with the kind of work, and where done, was not at the same time made to apply to the sewer department. If such had been the case, the official misconduct of which Inspector Broadhurst had ap- parently been guilty would not have been possible, without the certainty of immediate discovery. As the council has already made the same rule to cover the laborers employ- ed on sewers, as well as those on streets, we need make no recommenda- tions on that point further than that the regulation he rigidly enforced in both departments. If this system shall be strictly ad- hered to, it would seem improbable that hereafter the city will have any recur- rence of pay roll scandals. Respectfully submitted, P. W.
