REPORTS OF OFFICERS. Honorable Mayor and City Council, Gentlemen: In the matter of the suit of Mary Dempsey vs. City of Du- buque, 14, 624 Lan', I beg to report as follows: This action was originally brought for the May term, 1905, in the sum of $10,000 for a broken leg and other serious personal injuries alleged to have been sustained on a sidewalk on Julien avenue, in January of that year. The case has been tried four times in the District Court and was ap- pealed once to the Supreme Court successfully to the defendant. At the last trial had at the October Term, 1911, a verdict was returned and judg- ment given thereon in the sum of $750. In accordance with report thereon made to your honorable body, and af- ter full consideration of the matter, we determined that it would be im- practicable to continue the litigation in this matter and instructed against an appeal. There has been appropriated by this council an amount sufficient to adjust this claim and others now filed, and accordingly I ask that you direct a warrant to issue in favor of the Mayor, in the sum of $1200, which will be ample to pay this judgment with interest and costs, some of the costs having already been advanced from time to time and during previous ad- ministrations, in payment of defend- ant's witnesses. Any balance which may remain in the adjustment of this matter of costs, will be held by me for application an any other claim,. which your honorable body may order paid, and a report of the total amount paid will be made by me later. 96 Regular Session, March 7, 1912 I desire to report further that in the suit of Sarah Blumenthal vs. City of Dubuque, 16,527 Law, in the sum of $15,000. The action was called for trial at the January, 1912, Term, and after some progress had been made in the trial, an adjustment was effected in the scum of Four Hundred Dollars in full, plaintiff paying all costs. This is an action for personal injuries sus- tained from a runaway alleged to • have been caused by the operation of the steam roller on Washington street, said accident resulting in serious in- jury to plaintiff's skull, scalp and her body generally. I ask that a warrant be ordered drawn in favor of the Mayor in the sum of Four Hundred Dollars in full settlement of said matter. I also ,report in the actions of Stein - berger vs. City of Dubuque, 16,362 Equity, Anna M. Utt, vs. City, 16,363 Equity, Virginia Robinson vs. City of Dubuque, 16,364 Equity and Thomas Hill vs. City of Dubuque, 15,680 Equity, which were all actions brought to quiet title as against liens for special assessments, and which were bound to be barred by limita- tions and in which the City could have asserted no further claims, the costs amount to $108.80, and I ask that a warrant be ordered drawn in favor of the Mayor in said amount so that these items may be paid. Respectfully submitted, GEO. T. LYON, City Attorney. Ald. O'Rourke moved that the re- port be approved and warrants be drawn and the report be referred back to the Finance Comnittee. Carried.
