Dubuque, Iowa, Oct. 14, 1914.
To the Honorable Mayor and Council
of the City of Dubuque:
Gentlemen: —The case of Allen
Snyder vs. City of Dubuque was called
for trial on October 14th. At that
time it was found that the witnesses
who were most material to the suc-
cessful progress of the defense, did
not appear. Very earnest attempts
were made by the City Attorney's of-
fice to secure their presence at the
trial or their evidence, but to no avail.
After the jury had been partly im-
panelled and when the regular panel
had been exhausted it was deemed ad-
visable under all the circumstances to
affect as good a settlement as possi-
ble. The plaintiff, after much manipu-
lation agreed to accept One Hundred
and Twenty -five ($125.00) Dollars in
full of his claim. Feeling that this
was a satisfactory adjustment we
agreed to settle on that basis. I
would therefore recommend that the
case be settled upon that amount and
the Treasurer instructed to draw a
warrant in favor of Allen Snyder. .
Sincerely yours,
M. H. CZIZEK,
City Attorney.
On motion of Ald. McLaughlin the
report of the City Attorney was ap-
proved and a warrant in the sum or
$125.00 be ordered drawn on the City
Treasurer to cover the claim.
City Engineer Blake reported C. B.
McNamara & Co. the lowest bidders
for the construction of the Bee
Branch Sewer at 32nd street. On
motion of Ald. Clancy the contract
was awarded to C. H. McNamara &
Co., they being the lowest bidders and
their bond placed at 1 -4 the amount
of the contract.
