Moneys so collected shall not be trans- ferable to any other fund or used for any other purpose. The board of supervisors shall levy an additional sum for the ben- efit of such townships as shall have cer- tified a desire for such additional levy, as provided for in Section fifteen hundred and twenty-eight of this chapter; but the amount for the general township fund and the county road fund shall not exceed in any year five mills on the dollar," and Whereas, the Board of Supervisors of Dubuque County, Iowa,in compliance with said section of the statute as amended, has levied a road tax of one mill on the dollar on the assessed value of the tax- able property in Dubuque County, includ- ing the taxable value of the property in the City of Dubuque, for the year 1902. and, Whereas, under the provisions of the statute above set out that part of said tax collected in Julien Township is to be ex- pended upon the streets of said city, or streets adjacent thereto under the direc- tion of the City Council of the City of Dubuque, therefore, Be It Resolved by the City Council of the City of Dubuque, that the Board of Supervisors of Dubuque County, Iowa, be requested to furnish a quarterly state- ment to the City Council of the City of Dubuque of the amount in said road fund collected in Julien Township and available for the purposes set forth in said sec- tion 1530 of the code, and, Be It Further Resolved, that a copy of this resolution be presented to the Board of Supervisors of Dubuque County at its next regular session.

If you are entrusted with the care of a beat do not play the loafer on it by loung- ing in doorways or leaning against cor- ners, or other objects, but make it your business to know what is going on in every part of your beat as far as practicable, without unnecessary interference. Let no person or circumstance escape your notice and be able at all times to give informa- tion respecting any circumstance of im- portance occurring thereon. Learn the people residing or doing business on your beat; protect their property, make your- self useful and aid them in all their law- ful pursuits, and by an upright and straightforward course and a close atten- tion to duty endeavor to merit the good will of all good citizens. You know not how soon you may need their aid and their favor will add much to your power and influence to do good. But in the pur- suance of your duty as much as possible, avoid laying yourself under special obli- gations to anyone. Let yuur services rath- er place others under obligation to you. You know not how soon your duties may pre-emptorily demand that you act in op- position to some individual interest. Lend a willing ear to all complaints made to you in your official capacity. The most un- worthy have a right to be heard and a word of comfort to the afflicted, or of ad- vice to the erring costs you nothing, and may do much good. In ordinary cases, if you find yourself in a position not knowing exactly what to do, better to do too little than too much; it is easier to excuse a moderation than an excess. Whenever it is necessary to make an arrest, and you attempt to do it, don't fail, but use no more force than required to protect yourself and secure your prisoner. Forbearance under provocation and a temperate, though firm deportment, will insure a patrolman support in the dis- charge of his duties: while a violent or excited manner, or unnecessary publicity in making an arrest will destroy his in- dividual influence and tends to lower the department in the estimation of the pub- lic. You should hold yourself iand readiness obeytnt all times to answer the orders of your superiur officers. You shall treat your superior officers with respect and in your demeanor to your associates on the force, be courteous and consider- ate, guarding yourself against envy, jeal- ousy or other unfriendly feeling. Refrain from all communications to their discredit, except to your superior officer, whom it is your duty to inform of everything of im- portance happening on your beat. Indulgence in the practice of scandal and spreading rumors affecting the char- acter of a brother officer tends to lower the department in public estimation, and to create and foster ill -feeling and animos- ity among the men and tends to subvert good discipline. No officer can be successful or efficient in the execution of his duties unless he understands the requirements of the laws and ordinances. thSpare no pains in post- tgy thatt bby virtue of eyour commiss on oyour duties extend y to crimmal laws. officer should be only familiar ar withthe lawEvery or ordinance he is to execute and he should J 92 Regular Session, April 2, 1903. also know enough of the civil law to dis- tinguish between the two. Maintain a perfect control of temper, can self come can what control one that Ne govern rdegrade your position by placing yourself on a level with a drunken man, or a man in a passion by suffering his abuse to get you in a passion also. Select you asso- tes with care and endeavor at all times toamaintain the dignity of the department. Ald. Sheridan moved that the Rules and Regulations be adopted as presented and read. Carried. Ald.

City Attorney Barnes reported as fol- lows: To the Honorable Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Dubuque: 130 Regluar Session May 7, 1903. On the 30th day of April, 1903, your Hon- orable Body passed a resolution directing me to prepare a written opinion as to . whether or not the City could issue bonds to complete the construction of the Bee Branch Sewer. My opinion is that the City has no power to issue bonds for the purpose stated. I will state briefly the grounds upon which the above opinion is based. The laws of Iowa and the Ordinances of the City re. lating t3 the improvement of streets and the construction of sewers, etc., provide for the issuing of bonds where the cost of tl.e sane Is to be paid by special as- sessments upon the abutting or adjacent property. As I understand it the Bee Branch. *ewer as far a❑ constructed has been paid for by special appropriations for that purpose, and not by special as- sr=sments against tl:e abutting property, there tetng no provision in the law for is- suing bonds in cases of this kind. the City is without authority so to do.

Mayor and City Council of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: Your Board of Health would respectfully, report that at a meet- ing held June 1st, 1903, the Board audited a bill of Mr. John Voelker for conveying John Oliver, a smallpox patient, to the detention hospital; amount $8.00, and re- ferred the bill to the County Supervisors for payment. Also recommend that the bill of the Tel- egraph -Herald for health reports for the month of February, amountig to $4.00, be paid. We would also recommed the adoption of the following annual report of Dr. B. Michel, Health Physician to the Board: AN. REPORT OF HEALTH Dubuque, Iowa, May I2,11903. To the Honorable Mayor and City Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen:—The Physician to your Board of Health has the honor of sub- mitting his annual report for the year end- ing February 28, 1903: The number of deaths for the year is 512, as r s year, showing an increase st 427 othe incr aseof85. p�The unumber of births is 625, as against 541 for the pre- vious year, showing a gain of 84. The births outnumber the deaths by 113, as against 114 last year. The number or contagious diseases re- ported during the year is 218, of which 69 were 6. There have been ltwo a deaths decrease from smallpox. There were 57 fever, 42 cases of measles, 14 cases of caofetdiphther a and 36 cases of typhoid fever. During the past year we had an epi- 162 Regular Session June 4, 1903. demic of typhoid fever; there were report• ed 36 cases with 14 deaths—a rate of death of 38.88 per cent. of reported cases. This epidemic was of a type of moderate sever- ity, one In which might be expected a death rate of from 6 to 10 per cent. It has come to my knowledge that the physi- cians of this city were under the impres- sion that cnly such cases that require the premises to be placarded should be re- ported; for that reason a large percent- age of typhoid cases were not reported. if the total deaths were 6 per cent we had 280 cases; if 10 per cent we had a total of 140 cases of typhoid fever. In my opinion the actual number lies between the above figures. An epidemic of this kind is a very severe lesson, especially as it could be prevented. These cases occurred in persons using cistern and well water. Re- peated examinations have shown the ab- solute safety of water furnished by the City Water Works. The deductions from the above are apparent. All wells within the city limits should be condemned, because the entire soil is dangerously contaminated with the selp- age frum vaults and cess pools. Cisterns cleaned every year and protected from surface water, are not so dangerous; but the fault lies in the fact that the majority of cisterns are not propeny cared for. In my opinion the number of typhoid fever cases could be reduced to the mini- mun, by having sewer connections wher- ever possible, by a thorough system of garbage collection, and a general use of city water in place of wells and cisterns. The ice fields were inspected by order of your Board, and it was found that all ice was being cut rrom the channel of the river and should be of good quality. During the year 115 houses have been fumigated under the supervision of Sani- tary Policeman Flynn, who also investi- gated 1,210 complaints pertaining to this department. There were also 15 sewer conections ordered made- and 168 vaults cleaned. Respectfully submitted, B. MICHEL, M. D., Physician to the Board. Your Board of Health would also recom- mend the adoption of the following sup- plementary report of Dr. B. Michel: Dubuque, Iowa, June 3, 1903. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen:—As requested by the Board of Health, I state to the City Council the advisability and the necessity of mak- ing and enforcing sewer connections wherever water mains are laid. As shown by my annual report to the Board of Health, wherever there are sewer con- nections and the city water is in use, there are no cases of typhoid fever. Last season was excessively wet, causing over- flow of surface water into cisterns; thus contaminating the water. Wells, partic- ularly below the bluffs, are dangerous on account of the soil being contaminated for years by vaults. Last year the city was visited with the most severe epidemic of typhoid in its history, there being some two hundred cases of typhoid with four- teen deaths. As far as I have been able to ascertain, in all of these cases, cistern or well water was used. In view of the fact that the city is pure and free from contamination, and profiting by the ex- perience of last year, I respectfully recom- mend its use. It is of the utmost import- ance to preserve the health of the people of the city; nothing is more conducive to that than pure water, and nothing is more detrimental to health and productive c f malarial and typhoid diseases than im- pure water and imperfect drainage. The use of wells and cisterns, which are af- fected by seepage is a generater of dis- ease. I feel it my duty as Health Phys- ician, to call your attention particularly to this matter, which in my judgment is of prime importance to the city. Natural- ly, Dubuque when supplied with pure water and carefully guarded by sewer connections, is a healthy city, and 1 feel, as does the Board of Health, that your attention should be called particularly to this matter and that you give it attention. I am informed that in many portions of the city where water mains are now laid, sewer connections are not made, and par- ties do not avail themselves of the use and benefit derived from sewer connec- tions and also of the use of pure water. I am aware of the fact that the ordinary person using impure water and not deriv- ing the benefit from proper drainage, de- rived from sewer connections, does not realize the danger until disease and death visits his family. The old adage, that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, is applicable particularly to ques- tions of health. It is much easier to pro- vide, and protect against disease, than to cure it. I feel it my duty as an officer of the city, having no motive but the wel- fare of the city, to make this communica- tion and sincerely trust that you will give it attention, particularly as to sewer con- nections, for I feel that upon this depends largely the health of the city, and prob- ably the lives of many of its inhabitants. Sewer conections in all cases should be or- dered and mace where it Is possible, and I recommend and urge the use also of the city water wherever it is available. Very respectfully, BEN MICHE'L, Health Physician. Ald. Jones moved to adopt the report of the Board of Health. Carried.

Berg, Mayor, Dubuque, Iowa: Dear Sir:—The C. G. W. R'y. owns and operates railway tracks through the streets of twenty-five or more cities which have extensive systems of sewers which cross under the railway tracks in a good many places. Dubuque is the only one where the idea seems to prevail that the C., G. W. R'y. ought to construct at its own expense that part of the public sewer which lies under the Railway Company's tracks. In other cities the only thing we are required to do when the city is about to construct a sewer is to have some one connected with the Railway Company look after our track and trains so that no accident will happen. Dubuque, among all these cities, is in some respects absolutely the most success- ful. During 1894 and 1895. when other cities were making no growth and had dif- ficulty to take care of their unemployed labor, Dubuque, I am told, constructed more buildings, more miles of pavement and more improvements, public and pri- vate, than at any other time in her his- tory. Now the C. G. W. R'y. does not wish to escape one dollar of its just apportion- ment of taxes or other obligations to the communities through which it passes and upon which it is dependent for its patron- age. Neither does it wish to be in a continual quarrel with .Dubuque or any other city. In view of the facts, before we under- take to compromise or otherwise dispose of this difference of opinion, I would like to be informed fully as to the reasons why your city government takes the posi- tion that we should construct the sewers under our own tracks when other cities do not take that position. Yours truly, S. C. STICKNEY, General Manager. Dubuque, Iowa, June 20, 1903. Samuel C. Stickney, Gen. Mgr. C. G. W'n. Railway Co., • St. Paul, Minn. Dear Sir: Your favor of June 19th was duly received and I have carefully noted the contents. In answer to your inquiry why we take the position that your com- pany should construct the sewer under your tracks at your expense, when other cities do not take that position, will say: that I am not prepared to say what the law provides with regard to the construc- tion of drains in cities of Iowa not act- ing under special charter, as I have given that question no examination. But I call your attention to the fact that Dubuque is a city acting under a special charter and that Section 964 of the Code of Iowa relating to such cities provides: "Such cities shall have the power to order any railway or street railway to construct and maintain under the direction and subject to the approval of the City Engineer, culverts and drains across its right of Regular Session July 2, 1903. 183 way to any street, alley, highway or other place as such council may deem necessary, and if any railway or street railway company neglect or refuse, for more than thirty (30) days' after such notice, as may be prescribed by resolution, to comply with the requirements of any such order, the city may construct such culvert or drain and recover the cost thereof from such company." If you are not familiar with this statute perhaps it on the situmay situation. The hother row s railway compome light an- ies whose tracks pass through the City of Dubuque and whose tracks are sit- uated similarly to yours, and whose lines undoubtedly pass through other cities re- quiring culverts and drains, as yours does, recognize the force of this law and co-operate with the city in constructing such culverts and drains as are necessary for the purpose of drainage. and recog- nize that their property is protected and benefited by their construction. This law seems to us to be entirely equitable and just because each company should have the right of constructing its own work under its right of way; and for the fur- ther reason that the part of the culvert or drain under the railway company's tracks in many cases should be of an en- tirely different construction from that of the balance of the sewer, and for these reasons the law is made, as we under- stand it, so that the railway company may do its own work if it desires, but cannot hinder the construction of proper systems of drainage. The C., M. & St. P. Railway Company recognizing the necessity for this partic- ular culvert, and recognizing its legal liability to construct it, has intimated its intention of building its part of this culvert and has the material on the ground for its construction, and if you are sincere in your statement that you do not wish to escape one dollar of your just appor- tionment of taxes or other obligations to this community, then I would ask you to co-operate with the C., M. & St. P. Rail- way Company and place a suitable culvert under your right of way and that at once, because if • the balance of this sewer is constructed and there is no outlet at beur right dam damage otoway yourthere cannot property. Thecon- tract for the balance of the sewer is let and we are waiting upon the C. G. W. Railway Company. desiring an amicable agreement if possible. Trusting that you will take prompt ac- tion in this matter, in order that the work may not be unnecessarily delayed, I re- main Rea C. BRG,r H. ]Mayor. titled hereafter in case any such work comes up so that we will have time to take the matter up thoroughly with the City Attorney to see if we can arrive at a decision as to exactly what this law does mean. Yours truly, S. C. STICKNEY, General Manager. Ald. Clancy moved that the communi- cations be inserted in the Council Pro- ceedings. Carried. St. Paul, Minn., June 23, 1903. Mr. C. H. Berg, Mayor, Dubuque, Iowa. Dear Sir: Your favor of the 20th at hand. The law you quote mentions "cul- verts and drains." We did not construe this to mean sewers. We thought we had constrneted such culverts as were neces- sary and construed drains to mean the same as culverts except that they might be open culverts or such small structures as would hardly deserve the name of cul- vert. It seems that you construe culverts and drains to cover such a case as the one in question and in as much as the cost is not very great. we have decided to go ahead and do this work at once. We do not wish this to establish a prec- edent, however, and would like to be no- Ald. Jones moved to open bids for the improvement of Grace street. Carried.

As the cost of publishing the proceedings for one year at the present rate foots up to $1,800, leaving a balance of but $200 in the Print- ing Fund for emergencies, it will be im- possible to increase the rate of compensa- tion for the present; therefore we would recommend that the Printing Committee be instructed to inform both journals that the City Council will endeavor to mater- ially condense the proceedings. Should this not be satisfactory, we would recom- mend that said Printing Committee be authorized to enter into a contract with one paper only for the publication of the proceedings and notices.

Honorable Body at your precious session. Respectfully submitted. JAMES 11. BOYCE. City Engineer. On motion the report was received and tiled. City Attorney Barite: reported as fol- lows: To the Honorable Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen:—On the 6th day of August, 1903, the petition of William Stolteben and others with relation to the opening and maintaining of a passageway or thorough- fare from Alma Street to Rebecca Street along the south line of lot number 15 of Fairview Addition to the City of Du- buque, and the remonstrance of Rebecca J. Farley thereto, was referred to me for the purpose of investigating the records and reporting to your honorable body. There is no recorded plat on file in the office of the Recorder of Dubuque County showing an alley at the point in question. But the status of the ten feet in dispute has been determined and fixed by a decree in the District Court of this county. At the April term, 1887, of said court, Judith Sage filed a petition in equity against Rebecca J. Farley and George W. Farley, claiming to be the owner of lot number 9 of the Subdivision of out lot 667 as shown by the original plat of the City of Dubuque, and that the defendants are the owners of out lot 668. That In February, 1871, Thomas Yates was the owner of both out lots 667 and 668 and sub- divided and laid out the said out lot into lots, streets and alleys, and among others so laid out and dedicated to the use and benefit of the public, an alley running east and west along the north line of plain- tiff's said lot from Alma Street west to Rebecca Street, and taking the ground necessary for such alley from out lot 668. The petition further states that said Thomas Yates opened said alley and placed stone walls along the outer lines of the same, and the public accepted said alley and the same has been used openly by the public for more than fifteen years last past. That on the first day of February, 1871, Philip Sage bought plaintiff's said lot from said Thomas Yates, who then ex- hibited to said Sage a plat of said out lots 667 and 668 which had thereon the above described alley and then and there represented and stated to said Sage that said alley was intended as a public alley and should be and remain open as such to Regular Session August 20, 1903. the public and especially to the use and benefit of the owners of out lots 667 and 668. The petition further states that the de- fendants have threatened and are about to close up and permanently obstruct said alley and deprive plaintiffs and the pub- lic of the use of the same and prays for relief. The case was tried by the court and on the 5th day of October, 1887, a decree was entered containing among other things the following: "And now, on this 6th day of October, 1887, plaintiff introduced evidence to sustain the allegations on her petition and the court finds the same to be true and she is entitled to the relief demmnded. It is therefore ordered and adjudged that the defendants, Rebecca J. Farley and Geo. W. Farley, be and hereby are re- strained and forever enjoined from ob- structing and closing up in any manner the alley described in plaintiff's petition, to -wit: The alley running east and west along the north line of plaintiff's premises." "The said alley extending from Alma Street to Rebecca Street and located on the south part of out lot 668 and that de- fendants be and hereby are perpetually enjoined and restrained from interfering with plaintiffs ordinary and lawful use of said alley." About ten years later another suit was instituted by Thomas Yates and others, their heirs of Thomas Yates, deceased. against Philip Sage and Judith Sage, in which case 1 believe it was intended to quit the title in the ten feet in controversy, but as the description in the petition and in the decree which followed failed to de- scribe the ten feet in question, but de- scribed ten feet in a different location, this latter case and the decree therein is without force and effect as far as the ten feet in controversy is concerned. I quote the above pleadings and decree in order that your Honorable Body may see upon what I base my opinion. I an, of opinion that the decree first above re- ferred to establishes and fixes the status of the south ten feet of lot 15 in Fairview Addition as a public alley, and that if Re- becca .1. Farley has obstructed or caused the same to be obstructed, that said action on her part is a violation of the perpet- ual injunction above referred to. Said strip of ground having been decreed to be a public alley by the District Court of Dubuque County, is under the care and control of the City of Dubuque the same as any other public street or alley. I would recommend that the Council or the Committee of the Whole visit the ground for the purpose of ascertaining whether said alley is obstructed as claim- ed by petitioners, before any further ac- tion is taken by your Honorable Body. Respectfully submitted, GEO A. BARNES, City Attorney Ald. Raymond moved that the report be received and the Committee of the Whole visit the ground, as recommended. Car- ried.

On motion the report was received, and the City Auditor instructed to deduct from the Union Electric company's bill for the month of August, 1903, the amount of $6.85. City Attorney Barnes reported as fol- lows: To the Honorable Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen:—At the regular meeting of your honorable body held on the 20th day of August, 1903. you referred to me the annexed resolution of the Board of Lib- rary Trustees of Dubuque with instruc- tions for me to ascertain the rate or amount of levy that may be made by your honorable body for the maintenance of said library under the ordinances of the City of Dubuque and the statutes governing public libraries. I find that at the regular session held October 18, 1980, the City Council of the City of Dubuque passed an ordinance en- titled "An ordinance to establish and maintain a free public library in the city of Dubuque." section one of which pro- vides that the City of Dubuque shall have all the powers and be subject to all the duties conferred and imposed by sections, 727, 728, 729, 730, 731 and 732 and paragraph 0 of section 1005 of the code of Iowa of 1897. Section two provides for the annual levy by the City of Dubuque of not ex- ceeding one-quarter of a mill on the dol- lar of the assessed valuation of all tax- able property in said City of Dubuque, to be used as provided by law for the maintenance of said library. Sub -division six of section 1005 of the code above referred to was amended March 26, 1902, so as to read as follows: "They shall have power to levy annually the following taxes for special purposes: In cities which have established, or may establish a free public library all taxes as provided in section 732 and amendments thereto." On the llth day of April, 1902, the 29th General Assembly of the State of Iowa amended section 732 so as to read as fol- lows: "The board of trustees shall, be- fore the first day of August in each year determine or fix the amount or rate, not exceeding two mills on the dollar in all cities and in towns, of the taxable valu- ation in such city or town, to be levied, collected and appropriated for the ensuing year for the maintenance of such library * a * * and shall cause the same to be certified to the City Council, which shall levy such tax or so much thereof as it may deem necessary to promote library interests for each of said pur- poses so determined and fixed, and cer- tify the per cent thereof to the County Auditor, with the other taxes for said year." I am of opinion that as there is a conflict between section two of the ordi- nance above referred to and section 732 of the code as amended with relation to the amount or rate of the levy for the maintenance of said library that the state law controls and that the ordinance in so far as it undertakes to limit the amount of the levy to one-quarter of a mill on the dollar is null and void and without force and effect. The board of library trustees in adopt- ing the resolution hereto attached have complied literally with the provisions of section 732 of the code as amended, but the resolution passed by said board of library trustees is not necessarily bind- ing upon the City Council, as under sec- tion 732 of the code the City Council "shall levy such taxes or so much thereof as it may deem necessary." I would recommend that the communi- cation from the board of library trustees be referred to the Committee of the Whole and that said Board of Library Trustees be invited to be present with the Committee of the Whole at the time the same is taken up for disposition. Respectfully submitted, G. A. BARNES, City Attorney. Ald. Sheridan moved that the report be approved, and that the Resolution of the Library Trustees be referred to the Committee of the Whole as recommended. Carried. City Attorney Barnes also reported as follows: To the Honorable Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen:—In compliance with the in- structions of the Committee on Claims I have arranged for a compromise of the claim of Mrs. Anna Bertsch. who claims the sum of One Thousand ($1,000) Dollars on account of personal injuries which she claims to have sustained by falling on a defective sidewalk on the south side of Twenty-sixth street. I can settle this claim for one hundred and forty dollars, and as this sum is less than it would re- quire to fight the case, I would recom- mend that a warrant be drawn in my favor for the sum of one hundred and forty dollars, with instructions to settle said claim and to report settlement with Regular Session Sept. 3, 1903. receipt attached at the next regular ses- sion of the council. Respectfully submitted, G. A. BARNES. City Attorney. Ald. Horr moved that the report be ap- .proved, and a Warrant he ordered drawn in favor of Mr. Barnes for $140.00 to settle said claim. Carried. City Recorder Arendt presented and read, the printed notice, certified to by the Publisher. of the Council's intention to levy a Special Assessment against the different named property owners for re- pairing Sidewalks for the month of July, 1903. No remonstrance being filed, the Mayor asked if any one present had any obiection to said objection beingstated, Special on motion the no- tice was received and filed. Whereupon Ald. Frith offered the fol- lowing: Resolved by the City Council of the City of Dubuque: That to pay for re- pairing Sidewalks during month of July, 1903, in front of and adjoining the same, a Special the several Lote s, and Parts of Lots, and Parcels of Real Estate hereinafter named, situate and owned. and for the several amounts set opposite each Lot or Pat - cel of Real Estate, as follows: Special Assessment submitted and passed Sept. 3rd, 1903.

City Attorney Barnes and City Engi- neer Boyce reported as follows: The undersigned, to waom was refer- red the attached petition of I. C. Cham- berlain. asking that the City redeem from tax sale and refund to him the amount paid by him with interest on lots 24 and 25, block 15, Dubuque Harbor Improvement Company's Addition, for purpose of examining into the facts con- nected with said tax sale and the owner- ship of said lots, beg leave to report that we have examined the records with regard to the same and find that all the lots in question are owned by the Chi- cago Great Western Railway. That said company derived its title to lot 25 by warranty deed from the Standard Lum- ber Company in December, 1888; and to lot 24 from William Hintrager• et al., under a condemnation proceeding. The consideration fixed by the Sheriff's jury was $678.50. which was paid to the Sheriff as required by law. This condemnation suit was had October 27, 1888. There ap- pears to be no deed on record to lot 24, but in cases of condemnation no deed is executed in many instances, the award and report of the jury being the token of title. As these lots belong to the Chicago Great Western Railway and forms a part of its right of way, the same should not have been sold for taxes in the manner referred to in said petition. We would further recommend that as the money was paid into the City Treasury by 1. C. Chamberlain by mis- take, that the City redeem said lots from said tax sale and refund to said Cham- berlain the amount due thereon. Respectfully submitted, G. A. BARNES, City Attorney. JAMES H.

Present—AIds. Clancy, Frith, Ilorr, .Jones, Raymond and Sheridan. Absent—Ald. Corrance. 'Che Mayor stated that he had called this special session for the purpose that the Council might take some action on his veto of the liesohntion reported to the Council by the Committee of the Whole at its regular meeting Dee. :1rd, and adopted by the same. The .lh•iyor lead the Resolution, which reads as follows: Your Committee of the \\'hole would recommend that the following Resolution be adopted: 'Whereas. the cost of the sterno road roller. h:u•rew :and plow purchased dining the spring of 1!w.: iris boon erroneously charged 10 the head Fund. and we be- lieve that said amount should have been charged to the General Expense Fund, therefore Be it Resnlred by the City Council of the City of Dubwluo. That the city Aud- itor he and be is hereby instructed to credit the Road Pule' with :1550.00, the amount paid for said roller. letrrew :und plow. and to c•haree said amount to the General Expense Fund. The Mayor's veto follows: Gentlemen of the Council: I return to your honorable body the attached resolution without my signature Because I deem It a violation of sec- tion 743 of the Cuuc, in that it is an at- tempt to divert the sum of $3,560 from the General Expense Fund to the Road Fund. In order to satisfy myself as to the correctness of the position I have taken, from a legal standpoint, I request- ed Mr, Barnes, the City Attorney, to pre- pare a written opinion upon this ques- tion, a copy of which is attached hereto. and submitted herewith. Dated at Dubuque, this 15th day of De- •cen:ber, 1903. C. H. Berg, Mayor. City Attorney Barnes' opinion follows: Hon. C. H. Berg, Mayer of the City of Dubuque: Dear Sir: Complying with your request for an opinion as to the legality of the resolu- tion passed by the council at the regular session held on the 3rd day of December, 1903, I beg leave to submit the following: The resolution referred to is in the "fol- lowing language: "Whereas, the cost of the steam road roller, harrow and plough purchased during the Spring of 1903, has been erroneously charged to the Road Fund, and we believe said amount should have been charged to the General Ex- pense Fund, therefore, "Be it resolved by the City Council of the City of Dubuque: That the City Auditor be and he is hereby instructed to credit the Road Fund with $3,550, the amount paid for said roller, harrow and plough, and to charge the amount to the General Expense Fund." From an i::vestigation of the facts sur- rounding this transaction, it appears that the warrants drawn aggregating $3,550, for the payment of the steam roller, and other articles referred to in the resolutions, were drawn against the Road Fund and are so marked and endorsed as required by law, and the warrants have been paid and are now in the hands of the City Treas- urer. The preamble to the resolution states that this amount was erroneously charged to the Road Fund. I am in- clined to the opinion that this statement is not entirely correct. The amount was properly chargeable to the Road Fund, as the Road Fund in this City is for the whole City, and the articles purchased were for the use of that department. On the other hand, the said sum might possi- bly have been taken from the General Expense Fund, had the Council and your honor so determined at the time the war- rants were drawn, but it does not neces- sarily follow that because it might have been paid out of the General Expense Fund at the time the warrants were drawn that that end may now be attain- ed by the passage of this resolution. If a proper resolution had been passed after these warrants were issued and be- fore they were paid, there is no question hut whit the warrants could be recalled and new warrants issued, but after they have been paid and are no longer in the hands of the Auditor, but are in the hands of the Treasurer as his vouchers for the Payment. the same is beyond the recall of the Council. And it is easy to see that if the Auditor should do what the resolution requires so far as his books are concerned, it would not effect the fund, for the reason that on the Treasurer's hooks the same is charged against the Road Fund. There being no way of re- calling these warrants, the only way of accomplishing what the Council seems to desire, would be to have the Auditor and the Treasurer both add this sum of $3,550 to the Road Fund and charge it to the General Expense Fund; but this would be in direct viohliou of section 743 of the ('ode, which is as follows: "Any mem- ber of the ('ity ('o'metl. or any officer of any City levying and collecting taxes un- der provisions of this chapter, who shall In any manner participate in or advise to the diversion of any part of said tax to any other purpose than that provided for in this chapter. shall be deemed guilty of the crime of embezzlement, and shall he punished accordingly." There can he no other conclusion than that it would be a diversion of the General Expense Fund to transfer $3,550 of it to the Road Fund, and any person participating in such di- version is liable to the penalties of the Statute quoted. I am therefore of opinion that the fact that this sum might have been paid from the General Expense Fund would not ex - cuss the Council in diverting the funds of the Genetal Expense Fund in the manner contemplated by this resolution. The ob- ject of the Statute is to confine the ex- penditures of a City within the limits of its appropriations, and it is calculated to prevent extravagance on the part of the ('onn(•11 and if money from one fund could he transferred to :mother, after the mon- ey in that fund had been expended on the ground of error. or any other ground, the Statute above ,looted would be with- out any force ur virtue. I deem it un- necessary to mitis' you :uiy farther as to your duly in the premise,,,other than NI 328 Special Session Dec. 15, 1903. to call your attention to the provisions of section GS.5 of the Code of 1S97.
