To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: Some time ago a re- quest was made by the Illinois Cen- tral Railroad company to the City Council to cause to be vacated occu- pants of boat houses along the river front, particularly upon certain prop- erty which said company claims to own and this petition was referred to me for report. While I have not Investigate the ownership of the lands claimed to be owned by the Illinois Central Railroad company, the question of causing to be vacat- ed the•boathouses and buildings lo- cated along all of the river front has received my consideration. As you know the occupants of these buildings, consisting largely of boat house and shacks temporarily constructed, pay a monthly rental to the city, for the use of that propetty and in this way the city provides a place for these people to live. There has always been some reason for permitting these buildings to be oc- cupied being located, .as they are, upon city property and that reason, largely has been humanitarian and based upon the thought that the peo- ple who occupied these houses were unable fo procure better quarters for themselves and family but our experience during the past two years convinces me that this is not the case anymore. During the past two years the records of the police court show that nearly two hundred crimes of one kind or another, from plain drunks to murder have been com- mitted by persons occupying or fre- quenting these places. The chief of police advises me that the occupants of these buildings are a constant menace to the community and I share his view that they should be eliminated. I have asked the chief to be present at this meeting so that he could give you his version of the situation so that you may have a complete understanding of the case. My recommendation, therefor, is that no lease be given to any .per- sons to occupy these buildings on the river front and that the owners of such buildings be notified to re- moved the same within thirty days or at the latest before October 1st of this year. Any building occupied after that time or remaining upon the city property should be removed therefrom so that the situation may be fully and finally taken care of. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Solicitor. Councilman Melchior moved that the report of the City Solicitor and the Chief of Police be approved and carried out as recommended. Sec- onded by Councilman Gabriel.

To the Honorable Mayor and Council of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: The undersigned, First National Bank, stands charged with certain unpaid taxes for the year 1919 and in order to adjust the same and avoid any further questions re- garding this tax, there is hereby sub- mitted to you this offer to compro- mise and settlement. The City Council sitting as a Board of Equalization in 1919 fixed the valuation of the stock of the First National Bank at $139,500. This action was confirmed by the City Council and a tax levied on that amount. This tax was not paid due to the fact that certain legal com- plication existed which operated to releave the bank of its assessments due to thb fact that it was a holder in good faith of Government secur- ities. The tax levy for that year was 15% mills. This bank is sat- isfied to waive all legal questions in- volved in the tax and hereby tend- ers and requests the acceptance by the City Council of the sum of $1622.38, the same being the differ- ence between the total tax of $2162.25 and $539.87 which we have already paid, the same to be con- sidered full payment of all taxes de- linquent and charged against this bank for the year 1919. We urge upon you to accept this proposition which we voluntarily make and cause to be cancelled all unpaid 484 Special Session, August 24th, 1925 taxes against this bank upon its stock for the year 1919. Respectfully yours, FIRST NATIONAL BANK, Wm. Lawther, Jr., Vice President. Resolution. Whereas, First National Bank has petitioned this Council to accept in full payment of unpaid taxes for the year 1919 the sum of $1622.38 in order to adjust and compromise a claim for taxes which is charged upon the tax books against said bank: and Whereas, this Council is desirous of 'having the matter of delinquent taxes of First National Bank finally disposed of and believes that the set- tlemen voluntarily proposed by said bank is a fair and equitable one; now therefore: Be it resolved by the City Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque that the petitions and offer of settlement made by the First National Bank agreeing to pay the sum of $1622.38 in full of delinquent and unpaid tax- es for the year 1919 be and the same is hereby accepted. Be it further resolved that the City Clerk notify the Treasurer of Du- buque County to cancel said tax up- on his books. Passed, adopted and approved this 24th day of August, 1925. Mayor. L. H.

To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: My attention has been called to a mistake which oc- curred in the office of the County Treasurer in the collection of a spec- ial assessment against Lot 89 in Bel- mont Addition, said lot belonging to Peter H. Kersch. This lot was as- sessed for the sewer in O'Neil street. Mr. Kersch paid the first installment to the City Treasurer and thought he had paid the second installment to the county treasurer but upon in- vestigation it was found that he was not credited with the payment of the second installment. Further in- vestigation revealed the fact that another lot located in Ham's Addi- tion but belonging to a party with a similar name was assessed for a sewer in Rhomberg avenue district and when Mr. Kersch paid his sec- ond installment his payment was credited to the lot in Ham's Addition rather than to his lot. He has now paid the full amount of his assess- ment for the O'Neil street sewer and is entitled to a refund of $6.61, the amount which he paid as the second installment. The Auditor should be directed to draw a warrant in favor of Peter Kersch in the sum of $6.61. The City Treasurer should be in- structed to confer with the County Treasurer •and corect the error which shows the payment of the sec- ond installment levied against the southeast one-half of lot 443 in Ham's Addition. The second install- ment on this lot was not paid by the owner of that property and the same should be adjusted. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK. Councilman Brede moved that the recommendation of the City Solic- ior be approved and carried out as recommended. Seconded by Council- man Gabriel. Carried by the follow- ing vote: Yeas—Mayor pro -tem Schrempf, Councilmen Brede, Gabriel, and Melchior. Nays—None. Absent—Mayor Alderson. There being no further business, Council adjourned.

Kenneally, for a reducton in the assessment as lev- ied against his property, Sub. lot 3 of Min. lot 31 of lot 1 for the im- provement of South Grandview aven- ue, from Bryant street to Southern avenue. Amount of assessment is $1447.45, which he claims is in ex- cess of 25 per cent valuation of the property, the property being as- sessed for taxation purposes at $2560 and he claims that $640 is all that he oughttb be assessed for. Councilman Brede moved that the Council view the grounds. Carried by the following vote: Yeas—Mayor pro -tem Schrempf, Councilmen Brede, Gabriel, and Melchior. Nays—None. Absent—Mayor Alderson. On the matter of Theo. Kortmeyer relative to the asesssment for sewer connections in lot west 170 feet of lot 312 Davis Farm Add., the City Solicitor and Engineer recommend that the assessment stand as levied and the petition be received and filed.

Subject: Retaining wall of J. J. Al- len, 1283 Dodge street.

The City Solicitor reported on the following cases against the City: Gertrude Corbett vs. City of Du- buque. This case involved a per- sonal injury for which plaintiff 674 • Special Session, October 26th, 1925 sought to recover the sum of $5,000.00. This case was tried once and a verdict rendered against the City for $2,500.00. A new trial was granted which was called for trial again at this term. I considered it advisable to effect a settlement. This settlement was made and agreed upon for the sum of $1,000.00, the City to pay the costs. ,If this is sat- isfactory kindly have awarrant drawn in favor of J. W. Kintzinger, attorney for plaintiff, for $1,000.00 and another warrant in the sum of $151.05 in favor of Robert Marshall, clerk of the District Court. Mary Fortune vs. City of Dubuque. This was a claim for personal in- juries sustained in a fall upon a de- fectiveapron at the corner of West Third and Bluff streets. Suit was brought in the sum of $5,000.00. An adjustment has been agreed upon for the sum of $750.00, the plaintiff to pay the costs. If this is satisfactory. kindly have a warrant drawn in fa- vor of Kenline, Roedell, Hoffmann & Tierney, attorneys for plaintiff, in the sum of $750.00. In each of these cases the liability of the City was carefully considered and my recommendation is based up- on the thought that it would be ad- vantageous to the City to settle for the amount stated rather than have the same tried.

Report of the City Solicitor To the Honorable Mayor and City Council of Dubuque. Gentlemen: The City of Dubuque acquired through tax sales deed of the north 29 feet 2 inches of lot 240 of Glendale Addition, belonging to Rose Francois. This sale was made for delinquent tax for the improve- ment of Washington street and the certificate was acquired in 1921 and the deed in 1924. I have taken the matter up with Nick Francois the husband of the owner of this prop- erty and he advises me that there are certain circumstances connected with this matter which entitled them to consideration. I agree entirely with his position and for that reason I would recom- mend that the City cause to be exe- cuted a deed of this property to Rose Francois upon payment to the City of the sum of $92.23, this being the amount which the City has invested. If this is agreeable I would recom- mend that the resolution attached hereto be adopted. Respectfully submitted. M. H. CZIZEK, City Solicitor.

Gentlemen: Mercurio Pusateri has brought suit against the City for damages resulting from personal in- juries and damages to an automobile which was struck by a falling tree on Jackson Street on the 26th day of December, 1924. As you remember I discussed this case with the Council the time of the accident and I am convinced that the City was to blame for the conditions existing there at the time. When Jackson Street was improved the roots of a tree were cut off, and this weakened the support so that the tree was blown over and onto the car of the plaintiff. Suit was brought in the sum of $2.250.00 and was based upon per- sonal injuries as well as damages to the car. I have affected a settlement in this case for the amount of the repairs to the car amounting to l226.75, and I would recommend that this settlement be approved and that a warrant be drawn in favor of Frantzen, Bonson & Gilloon, attor- neys for plaintiff. The plaintiff will pay the costs. Respectfully submitted. M. H. CZIZEK. • City Solicitor.

Fosselman in the sum of $750.00 for damages sustained by him in a fall on the 20th day of Jan- uary, 1925. When this case was brought against the City I notified the North- western Telephone Co. that the City claimed that it was responsible for the accident and requested that they interest themselves to the extent of settling the same or defending. I have had several conferences with the attorney representing this Company and was assured that if the City settled the same for $750.00 the Company would reimburse the Cit to the amount of the settlement. This transaction has now been made and there is hereto attached the vou- cher check of the Northwestern Tele- phone Company in favor of the City of Dubuque in the sum of $750.00, which reimburses the City for its outlay in this case. I would recommend that the City Treasurer endorse this voucher as City Treasurer and that he be sb in- structed to do so by motion of this Council. There is also attached hereto a Release and Settlement which should be executed by the City Manager up- on instruction from the Council, and I advise that a motion be made di- recting Mr. Douglas to execute this settlement agreement on behalf of the City of Dubuque.

To the Mayor and City Council of the City of Dubuque, and to M. H. Czizek, City Attorney. Gentlemen: In re: Appeals of Birdena E. Bush and Virg E. R. Robinson from pav- ing assessments. In this matter when I appeared be- fore you the City Manager and some of you had already examined the property and had decided upon cer- tain reductions in the assessments upon the various lots. At that time I advised you that the reductions were so inadequate that as to certain of the lots the owners would elect to allow them to be confiscated ra- ther than pay the proposed tax. I have just gone over the matter with my clients and I find they have definitely decided to allow the City to take Lots 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 rather than pay assessments upon them. They would be glad to have the assessments cancelled and they would then deed the lots over to the Park Board if the Park Board would accept the lots; otherwise they would allow the City to sell the lots for the taxes and let them go. We are proposing this to you and in con- nection with it would ask that you grant upon the remaining lots the reductions which you had contem- plated granting at that time unless you would in the meantime feel that fairness would require still greater reduction. The remaining lots would be Lots 1, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17. This formal letter is in confirma- tion of a conversation which I have just had with the City Attorney and I am presenting it to you because 1 believe it will appeal to your sense of fairness when you take into ac- count the value of the property. 1 have said frankly to the City Attor- ney that I believe I can find no way to stay in court upon the appeals which I have taken and the City At- torney understands that I am claim- ing no technical legal rights growing out of said appeals. I would appreciate it if you would give the matter attention and advise us at your earliest opportunity what reductions will be made upon the re- maining lots and in what manner you would care to have those lots numbered 18 to 22 inc. turned over to you.

To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: At the present term of the District Court of Dubuque County, Iowa, two cases involving February 1st, 1.92h personal injuries have been disposed of. The nature of these actions is as follows: Josephine Gantenbein vs. City of Dubuque, This case was brought, to recover damages on account of a bro- ken leg which plaintiff sustained by failing on a sidewalk abutting the tin shop of F. C. Luther, 2230 Central Avenue. Plaintiff sustained rather serious injuries and brought suit for $10,000. After all of the evidence had been introduced, 1 made a mo- tion to direct a verdict in favor of the City which the Court sustained. May Phillips vs. City of Dubuque. This action was based upon personal injuries which plaintiff sustained on the night of May 2, 1925, when an automobile in which she was ridin struck and run onto a pile of dirt located at the corner of Delhi and Algona Streets. An excavation was made in the street at that point by Mr. Rellihan, plumber, and the dirt thrown up onto the street. The auto- mobile turned over and Miss Phil- lips sustained terrible injuries, most of which are permanent and have renderd her a cripple. Damages were asked in the sum of $25,000. 1 no- tified Mr. Rellihan to defend in the suit as he was covered to the extent of $1,000.00 by a bond in the Fidelity and Deposit Company of Maryland. The case went to trial and after plaintiff had introduced a great part of her testimony, negotiations for settlement were undertaken. The result was that I agreed to pay $3,500.00 plus the costs. Cf this amount, however, the bonding com- pany will pay $750.00 and the City will be reimbursed to 'that extent. Under all of the circumstances sur- rounding this action, I consider this settlement very advantageous to the City and trust that it will meet with your approval. If is does, I respect- fully recommend that a warrant for $3,500.00 be orderd issued upon the Treasurer in favor of John Knoll and Milton Glenn, attorneys for May Phillips, and the amount of the costs will be reported to you as soon as I learn what the amount is. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, Solicitor. Councilman Brede moved that the report of the City Solicitor be ap• proved and his recommendation be carried out and the City Auditor be instructed to draw a warrant in the sung of $3,500.00 in favor of John Knoll and Milton Glenn, attorneys for May Phillips, settlement for personal injury claim.

Meuser, Schrempf and Yount. Mayor Melchior read the call and stated that this meeting is called for the purpose of adopting a reso- lution of condolence on the death of Ex -mayor Chris. Berg and a reso- lution of condolence on the death of Ex -mayor Daniel Haas, and any other business that may come be- fore the Council. Resolution of condolence on the death of Ex -mayor Chris Berg pre- sented. On the occasion of the death of Hon. C. H. Berg, the City Council of Dubuque desires to express that ap- preciation of his useful life which the citizens of this community gen- erally entertain. Mr. Berg was a resident of Du- buque and vicinity for practically the entire active period of his life of S5 years. He was a gallant soldier in the Civil War, and, coming to Du- buque from Galena after his period of military service, took up his trade of printer and became and remained to the end of his career one of the successful business men of our city. He was president of the Union Trust & Savings Bank for many years and until his . death. Mr. Berg's attractive personal qualities, his mildness, kindness and courtesy, drew the attention of his fellow citizens to his eligibility for public life. He was chosen alder- man from the Fourth Ward in 1896 and served as chairman of the City Council Committee on Finance in a difficult period, with such demonstra- tion of ability that in 1898 he was chosen Mayor. He served in this latter position for four terms, or from 1898 to 1906, and his admin- istration was distinguished by care- ful, capable and economical manage- ment of the financial affairs of this municipality and by genuine regard for the interests of the taxpayers. Following his retirement from the mayoralty, Mr. Berg resisted every appeal for his return to public life, but continued his activity on behalf of his comrades of the Civil War and his interest in their affairs. He was for many years, and until his death, 'I l commander of the Hyde Clark Post, Grand Army of the Republic, of which he was a charter member, and this body and this community sin- cerely sympathize with his comrades in the loss of their devoted and be- loved leader. Be it resolved by the City Council of the City of Dubuque that the sen- timents expressed in this resolution be made a matter of record in the permanent council proceedings of this Council and that a copy hereof be sent to the bereaved family of said deceased. Councilman Yount moved the ad- option of this resolution. Seconded by Councilman Maclay. Carried by the following vote: Yeas—Mayor Melchior, Council- men Maclay, Meuser, Schrempf, and Yount. Nays—None. Resolution of condolence on the death of Ex -mayor Daniel Haas pre- sented. The City Council of Dubuque re- cords with regret the death of Hon. Daniel J. Haas, former mayor of the City of Dubuque and former member of this city's board of aldermen. Mr. Haas entered the public life of this community as alderman-at- la.rge and served in this capacity with such usefulness and fidelity that his election to the mayoralty followed. He retired from this posi- tion with an honorable record of public service to resume his profes- sion of pharmacist which engaged his attention for the remainder of his life. His was the career of which America affords so many examples, that of the young emigrant appreci- ating the opportunities afforded by our country and struggling unaided to improve himself until he obtained honorable recognition in business circles and also in public life. His: unpretentious demeanor, and nis democracy of spirit, evidenced in his kindly consideration for all, begot. for him the large degree of favor he enjoyed in private business and In public affairs. Resolved by the City Council of the City of Dubuque that the senti- ments expressed in this resolution be made a matter of record in the permanent council proceedings of this Council and that a copy hereof be sent to the bereaved family of said deceased.

The Traffic Ordinance was then discussed ,to be taken up again a.t the next meeting of the Council. To the Honorable Mayor- and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: The case of Beutin et al vs. City of Dubuque, Equity 21,825 was an appeal taken from the levy of certain special assessments for the construction of a main sew- er and laterals in the Eagle Point Sewer District. Many questions were involved in this action and among them was the objection that the assessments were In excess of 25 per cent of the actual value of the lots upon the date of levy. The case came on for trial at this term of Court and it was deemed advis- able by the Council and myself, in order to lessen the expense incident to the trial of the case which ap- parently would take considerable time to dispose of to appoint a com- mittee of disinterested citizens who would act as appraisors of the in- dividual lots and fix the value and the assessment would be based up- on one-fourth of such value. It was agreed that three appraisors be ap- pointed, one by the City, the other by the plaintiffs in the suit and the third by these two and the expense incident to such appralsement to be borne partly by the City and partly by the Plaintiffs. This anpraise- ment was made and the valuations fixed. The result of this anpraise- ment has been to decrease the valu- ntinns of the lots and correspond- ingly decrease the assessments, as many of these lots were of little or no value. After the annraisement was made the Courtmade a finding of fact and entered its decree there- on fixing the valuations. the assess- ments and providing for the reduc- tion therein. The valuations as fixed and the assessments as reduced are as follows: Special Session, April 12th, 1926 Lot 1 McCraney's 1st Add.—Value $40.00; assessment $10.00. Lot 2 McCraney's 1st Add.—Value $75.00; assessment $18.75. Lot 3 McCraney's 1st Add.—Value $125.00; assessment $31.25. Lot 4 McCraney's 1st Add.—Value $200.00; assessment $50.00. Lot 5 McCraney's 1st Add.—Value $400.00; no change. Lot 6 McCraney's 1st Add.—Value $500.00; no change. Lot 7 McCraney's lst Add.—Value $500.00; no change. Lot 8 McCraney's 1st Add.—Value $500.00; no change. Lot 117 Ham's Add.—Value $40.00; assessment $10.00. Lot 118 Ham's Add.—Value $40.00; assessment $10.00. Lot 119 Ham's Add.—Value $40.00; assessment $10.00. Lot 120 Ham's Add.—Value $40.00; assessment $10.00. Lot 121 Ham's Add.—Value $40.00; assessment $10.00. Lot 122 Ham's Add.—Value $40.00; assessment $10.00. Lot 123 Ham's Add.—Value $40.00; assessment $10.00. Lot 124 Ham's Add.—Value $40.00; assessment $10.00. Lot 125 Ham's Add.—Value $40.00; assessment $10.00. Lot 126 Ham's Add.—Value $40.00; assessment $10.00. Lot 127 Ham's Add.—Value $40.00: assessment $10.00. Lot 128 Ham's Add.—Value 540.00: assessment $10.00. Lot 129 Ham's Add.—Value $40.00; assessment $10.00. Lot 130 Ham's Add.—Value $40.00; assessment $10.00. Lot 242 Ham's Add.—Value $600; no change. The total amount of reductions made by the Court amounts to $1,457.33 and the decree provides that these reductions be made by the Council and the Treasurer will be instructed to make his corrections upon the books in the County Treas- urer's office accordingly. the interest upon the assessments to be figured as provided by law from the date of the original levy, namely April 7, 1924. The costs have been assessed against the City and the same amount to $62.45. You will there- fore have the reductions made as herein provided and a warrant drawn in favor of R. P. Marshall, Clerk of the District Court for the sum of $62.45. In order also to have the special 95 bond improvement fund credited with the amount of these reductions you will order the Auditor to draw a warrant upon the general fund in favor of the improvement fund in the sum of $1,457.23, the same being the amount of the reductions re- ferred to.

To the Honorable City Mayor and Councilmen of Dubuque, Iowa: "Dear Sirs: "At the regular meeting of the Du- buque Trades and Labor Congress I was instructed to notify your honor- able body that the members of the Labor Congress are protesting against the violations of and actual indifference to the building code by our City Manager and the Building Commissioner. "We wish at this time to call your attention to the fact that these viola- tions were called to their attention at various times with no results. They were called to their attention at various times, so that worn out excuses and alibis could not be giv- en for the purpose of not enforcing the code. And with these facts in view the members of the Labor Con- gress protest to your honorable body against the indifference and viola- tions that are allowed. It is also contended by the members of the Labor Congress that the present code was drawn up by men who were thoroughly versed in their pro- fession, and that it was not their in- tention . to allow construction that was considered 'just as good,' in- stead of what was known to be best, safest and most practicable. "We further insist that the various heads of the departments should en- force the code to the letter and that no leniency be shown unfair con- tractors; what is good for one is good for another. And we respect- fully request that the various depart- ments give due and just considera- tion to complaints brought before them in the future. DUBUQUE TRADES AND LABOR CONGRESS.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council: Gentlement: Your petitioners would respectfully call your atten- tion to the fact that the voter's at an election heljl June 7th, 1926, fav- orably voted to pave the primary roads of the County and also favor- ably voted for a Bond Issue to sup- ply the necessary funds to cover the cost thereof. Inasmuch as the Board of Supervisors of Dubuque County have expressed their determination to pave immediately the Key West road, to the City limits, it forcibly brings forth the fact that the portion of the Rockdale road connecting with South Locust Street should be in- cluded in the same project. As experienced previously on this pro- ject, when grading, draining and rough surfacing, the economical method proved that the entire con- tract should be let in conjunction with the County as contractors would bid less on the larger work. This organization would therefore respectfully request that your Hon- orable Body take such immediate ac- tion as you deem best. Respectfully submitted, L. H. BREDE, Chairman Finance Com. KENDALL BURCH, Member Executive Com. Councilman Schrempf moved that the communication be made a matter of record. Seconded by Councilman Maclay.

We received bids sometime ago on fire equipment and at that time I recommended the purchase of two pieces of equipment from the Ameri- can La France Fire Engine Com- pany. The bids on the same type of equipment from the American La France and the Ahrens Fox Co., were within $20.00 of each other, the Ahrens Fox being $20.00 higher. Since that time I have been look- ing into the maintenance of the equipmnet that we have in service furnished by both companies. l find that the American La France equip- ment for some reason, is costing us more to maintain. In addition to this the Ahrens Fox Co., has bid on their latest improved automobile tractor drawn service ladder truck. The advantage that this truck has over the other service ladder trucks is that it has six wheels and has a steering apparatus known as the Tiller in connection with the rear wheels. This makes the machine much more flexible and will be much more serviceable on our hills and crooked streets. The cost of the piece of apparatus is $1450.00 more than the four wheel service ladder truck. Since the bids have been received Chief Fisher and the Mayor have had the privilege of seeing one of these new trucks. The Chief has gon.• over it in detail and is of the opin ion that this truck would give us much more service than the other ladder truck of either make and would be a piece of equipment the would last the city many years longer than the four wheel type and would do better work for us. We have the same proposition from both companies for terms and interest on deferred payment so that 158 Special Session, June 10th, 1926 the only difference in the original recommendation to the council anti. this recommendation is that we will get a larger and better service lad- der truck with chemical attachments than was proposed heretofore. After going over all details thor- oughly with Chief Fisher I am con- vinced from his experience that the Ahrens Fox pumper and the tractor drawn ladder truck will be the best and most economical purchase for the city to make. The attached proposal shows a cut of the trailer on Form 757 and a cut of the ladder and chemical equip- ment on Form 758. I therefore recommend the pur- chase of this equipment from the Ahrens Fox Co., in place of iuy prev- ious recommendation. Respectfully submitted, C. E. DOUGLAS, City Manager. Councilman Schrempf moved that the recommendation of the City Man- ager be approved, and a contract be entered into with the Ahrens Fox Company for fire pumper and tractor drawn ladder truck, and all former action on this matter be rescinded. Seconded by Councilman Meuser. Carried by the following vote: Yeas—Mayor Melchior, Council- men Maclay, Meuser, and Schrempf. Nays—None. Absent—Councilman Yount.

Langworthy's Add., stating that she was assessed $196.88 for construction of sanitary sewer in Foye Street Nov. 2nd, 1925. claiming that this is a hillside lot of very little value. She offers to pay $25.00 in full for this assessment. Referred to the Council at a former meeting. The Council upon viewing same, decided that Sarah Wiehl be notified to pay $50.00 for this assessment, and if satisfactory the Treasurer be notified to accept same and cancel the assessment on his books. Councilman Maclay moved that the assessment be reduced to $50.00 and Mrs. Wiehl be so notified and the Auditor be instructed to draw a war- rant on the general fund for the dif- ference to make up the shortage.
