Gentlemen: I herewith make a
few recommendations looking toward
an improvement in our fire fighting
facilities to increase the protection to
the public, both downtown and in the
hill districts, and beg of your honor-
able body fair consideration of the
following needs:
An immediate need of 2,000 feet of
good cotton rubber lined 4. ply hose,
One first class automobile fire engine
to- be placed at the 'Central engine
house, to cover the downtown as well
as the hill districts. The company in
charge of same to practically answer
all calls because the time spent in
reaching a fire would be greatly
lessened especially in answering hill.
calls. Necessarily our progress to
hill fires is not as good as it would be
with a first class, automobile fire en-
gine. Distances then would not
lessen the speed.
A small hook and ladder truck in
place of the old truck now in use.
The old truck is very dangerous and
unsafe for the firemen to ride on or to
handle.
The purpose of the new and light
truck to be to respond to hill calls
and those in outlying districts.
One hose tower to be erected at the
Engine House No. 2, enabling the men
there to properly dry the fire hose
after a fire.
A life saving net, the need of which
becomes more apparent daily.
Leather helmets for the firemen to
protect them from falling glass and
other debris at a fire.
Believing that the above mentioned
equipment will add to the efficiency of
this department and prove to be a
good investment considering the ad-
ditional protection to life and proper-
ty, I respectfully submit this report.
J. R. REINFRIED,
Chief.

To the ionorable Council:
City of Dubuque:
Dear Sirs: The action of your
Committee of the Whole, ratified by
your Honorable Body, cancelling a
portion of the taxes of 1907, 1908 and
Regular Session, February 3, 1910 37
1909, of the Avenue Top Mining Com-
pany needs no extended consideration
because wholly illegal and void. True
we have made similiar cancellations
in the past and I have been party to
the procedure, but as it is contrary
to the Statute of Iowa. the custom
must entirely cease because wholly in_

I therefore veto the motion that
carried adopting the report of the

partial cancellation.
Respectfully,
H. A. SCHUNK,

Respectfully,

Auditor.
On motion of Ald. O'Rourke the re-
port was approved and referred to
the Committee on Finance.
City Attorney Lyon reported as fol-
lows:
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council of the City of Dubuque,
Iowa:
Gentlemen: The undersigned, to
whom was referred the petition of
Christina Wasser, herewith submits
his reports on the same:
The petitioner requests that the
special assessment levied on the 5th
day of November, 1908, by the City
Council, on Subdivision 6 of Brecht's
Subdivision of Lot One (1) and Sub-
division 5 of Brecht's Subdivision of
Lot 5, in the amount of $206.96, for
an improvement made on Hennepin
Street, he reduced to the sum of
$75.00, claiming that said assessment
is exhorbitant and beyond the bene-
fits conferred by such improvement,
and illegal because in excess of 25%
of the actual value of said lots.
I am of the opinion that the peti-
tioner has waived any rights which
she may have had, conceding the facts
set out in her petition to be true —a
matter about which I have no per-
sonal knowledge.
Section 971 of the Code of Iowa
provides for the filing of any objec-
tions one may have to the proposed
levy of a special assessment. In this
case there were no remonstrances
filed against the levy as proposed.
Sec. 324 of the Code provides that
all objections to errors, irregulari-
ties or inequalities in the making of
special assessments, etc., not made be-
fore the Council at the time and in
the manner provided, shall be waived,
except where fraud is shown. There
having been no objections filed in this
case, all errors, irregularities or in-
equalities I believed to be waived.
Sec. 839 of the Code provides for
an appeal giving any party aggrieved
by any assessment levied for street
improvement, right to have the as-
sessment reviewed by the District
Court. And further provides that
only such objections as are made be-
fore the Council, as provided for in
the section last above referred to,
shall be raised upon the appeal.
There having been no objections
filed before the Council, and no ap-
peal taken from the assessment as
made by the Council, I believe the as-
sessment becomes a finality and is
binding upon the party.
February 10, 1910.
Respectfully submitted,
GEO. T. LYON,
City Attorney.
Ald. Haas moved that report of
City Attorney Lyon be approved and •
referred to Committee of the Whole.

Following report Of City Attorney
Lyon on bill of -Jacob Haudenschield
was then react as follows:
To the Honorable Mayor and City
.Council of the City of Dubuque,
Iowa:
Gentlemen: The undersigned, to
whom was referred the bill of Jacob
Haudenschield for oats furnished the
various departments of the City, here-
with submit his report.
I find that on January 10th, 1909,
the City through its Mayor entered
into a contract with . Tacob Hauden-
schield, by the terms of which the
said Jacob Ha.uclenschield, was to
•furnish certain specified qualities of
hay and oats to various departments
of the City, at certain specified prices
for a period of one year, beginning
December 1st, 1908.
That in the proposal of said Jacob
Haudenschield, which,.. is attached to
said contract, and which is referred
to in the contract, he agrees to furn-
ish the amounts required upon fifteen
clays notice in advance; that during
the term of the contract hay and oats
46 Adjourned Regular Session, February 10, 1910
were ordered from said Jacob Haud-
enschield by the Chief of the Fire
Department under direction of the
Chairman of the Committee on Fire.
in car -load lots; that this action has
been ratified and approved by the
Council and all former bills of said
Jacob Haudenschield have been allow-
ed and paid; that the Chief of the
Fire Department ordered the oats for
which the present bill is presented, on
November 20th, 1909, being several
days before the expiration of the con-
tract; that the Chief was instructed
as heretofore to place such order;
that the oats • were needed by the
different departments; and that the
price and quality were in accordance
with the terms of the contract; that
the oats were delivered a few days
after the expiration of the contract,
but within a reasonable time after the
order was placed.
From the foregoing facts it appears
that the order for the oats was given in
the usual and customary mariner and
such as had been ratified and approved
by the Council on former occasions,
and that it had been placed before
the expiration of the contract, I am
therefore of the opinion that Hauden-
schield could have .been compelled to
deliver the oats of the kind, in the
quantity and at the price provided
for in the contract, and it must neces-
sarily follow that, having complied
with the obligations imposed upon hint
by the terms of the contract he is
entitled to have the contract carried
out by the city in accordance with
the terms thereof.
I am of the opinion that the bill
is a valid and legal obligation upon
the City.
Respectfully submitted,
GEO. T. LYON,
City Attorney.
Ald. 'Rand moved the adoption of
the report of the Committee of the
Whole ordering warrants drawn to
pay bills of Jacob Haudenschield.
Carried by the following vote:
Yeas —Aids. Frith, Haas, Rand,
Saul and Singrin.
`ays —Ald. O'Rourke.
Absent —Ald. Martin.
Mayor Schenk then presented and
read the following veto on the report
of the Committee of the Whole or-
dering bill of Jacob Haudenschield
paid:
Dubuque, Iowa, Feb. 10th, 1910.
To the Honorable Council, City of
Dubuque:
Dear Sirs: The action of your
Committee of the Whole, ratified by
your honorable body, ordering the
Haudenschield oats bills ($979.11)
paid, is a rank injustice to the tax
payers of the City of Dubuque.
The contract with Mr. Hauden-
Adjourned Regular Session, February 10, 1910 47
schield expired by limitation on
December 1st, 1909, and the oats
were' delivered to the City on
December 9th, 1909. This statement
would perhaps not be so startling
were it not for the fact that the con-
tract price for oats to December 1st,
1909, was sixty cents per bushel,
whereas the market price on Dec-
ember 9th, 1909, was but forty -five
cents per bushel, a difference of
fifteen cents or twenty -five cents per
cent less, quite a nice extra profit that.
It has been asserted that the oats
were ordered November 20, 1909, but
there is no evidence of it on the bills,
and the fact remains that delivery was
made nine days after expiration of
contract, hence' voiding contract
prices.
The remarkable part of this pe-
culiar transaction is that this huge
order for oats, even if made before
expiration of contract, was about as
brazen a bit of imposition on the City
that I ever experienced. To fully
appreciate the extent of this piece of
business, it it only necessary to call
attention to the fact that the quantity
of oats furnished under these bills
constitutes a supply for the entire
Fire Department and also the Patrol
House of the Police Department un-
til late in the month of August, 1910.
a nearly seven months' supply in ad-
vance of actual needs at sixty cents a
bushel when the market price was
but forty -five cents per bushel, an
unwarranted extra cost to the City of
$245.00 on a bill which totals $979.11.
Last year when the contract was
about to expire, and when it had ex-
pired, and before another one was
entered into, orders for oats, orders
were limited to actual needs, in small
quantities, in fact the then contrac-
tor, Kane, informs me that oats were
ordered in quantities as small as five
bushels, and in no quantity exceeding
a wagon load. That was eminently
proper and right then, but the course
pursued in the case of the bills under
consideration was radically wrong.
A resolution adopted by your honor-
able body on May 22, 1908, provides
as follows:
"Ist. That all supplies for use of
the several departments be purchased
through the Committee Clerk, who is
hereby constituted the purchasing
agent for the City of Dubuque."
"2nd. That all requisitions for
supplies be first submitted to the
Mayor for his approval.
"3rd. That the heads of all depart-
ments, all regularly elected officers,
when requiring supplies, shall file with
the Committee Clerk a reasonable
time before such supplies are actually
needed, a requisition stating, in the
case of heads of departments, the
particular object for which such sup-
plies are needed and where the same
are to be used, which requisition the
Committee Clerk shall forthwith sub-
mit to the Mayor for his approval,
then to the chairman of the particular
committee in charge of the depart-
ment for which such supplies are re-
quired," etc.
These requirements were absolute-
ly ignored in this case, and the Com-
mittee Clerk or rather Purchasing
Agent, the designation in the fore-
going council resolution given him nor
myself, knew anything of this order
for a seven months' supply of oats in
advance of actual needs, at a cost of
fifteen cents a bushel over the market
price, until the bills in controversy
were presented for payment. Had
this large quantity of oats been order-
ed close to or after expiration of con-
tract at the market price of oats at
date of delivery, the action would
still have been wrong, but I would
interpose no objection because it
would not involve the City in actual
loss. But this matter involves the
City in an acutal loss of $245.00 on
the proposition, and I refuse to be a
party to such an unfair transaction.
Let Mr. Haudenschield accept what
is fairly and reasonably due to him on
the bill at the market price of oats
when he delivered same ($754.33) and
there will be no further objection to
the proposition even if the quantity
furnished was a seven months' supply
in advance of actual needs.
I therefore hereby veto the motion
that carried adopting the report of
the Committee of the Whole recom-
mending the payment of the bills.
Respectfully,
H. A. SCHUNK,
Mayor.
Ald. Frith moved that the veto of
the Mayor and the matter of Hauden-
schield's bills he referred back to the
Committe of the Whole.
Mayor Schunk stated that he
would waive all rights for immediate
action on the veto, vote to be taken
on same at the next session of the
Council to he held February 17th,
1910. Motion of Ald. Frith was
then put and was carried.

REPORTS OF COMMITTEES.
Ald. Rand, chairman of the Com-
mittee on Claims, reported as fol-
lows:
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council:
Gentlemen: There is now pending
in the District Court of this county
an action entitled Wm. Hintrager vs.
City of Dubuque, being No. 14862
Equity, brought to quiet title in and
to Lots 2 and 5 in Charles Klingen-
berg's Subdivision in the City of Du-
buque, constituting what is now
known as Cushing Place.
These two lots were assessed for
the years 1895 and 1896 by the Coun-
ty and the taxes not being paid, were
sold December 9, 1897, for the taxes
of 1895 and 1896, and in 1905 Mr.
Hintrager obtained tax deed. Some
time in the year 1895 the City pro-
cured deeds to these lots and the
deeds were filed December 13, 1895,
Lot 2 being conveyed by Chas. Kling-
enberg and Lot 5 by Bertha Bevens-
dorf.
The heirs of said William Hin-
trager are willing to adjust the suit
now pending, and make the proposi-
tion of accepting $19.31 in full set-
tlement, this amount including the
taxes paid by Mr. Hintrager, service
of notices, recording of tax deed, and
court costs of this action. They will
also give to the City quit claim
deeds, and, of course, dismiss the suit
Regular Session February 17, 1910
pending.
In view of the small amount in-
folved, we deem it advisable to make
adjustment on the basis indicated,
and recommend that said amount be
ordered paid, and the quit claims
deeds accepted, in settlement of the
said action.
