The reprrt was raftrrsd to the

Ao ordinance prohibiting aoy person
from tapping or removing the olty
sewers was approved by a unanimous
vole
Alderman Caldwell said the olty
should deal severely with snoh people
as would tBmper with the sewers of
the olty. He depreoated the Idea of
treating playfully with people who
endangered the lives of thousands. He
said that getting drank only lrjired
the man who did the drlnklog while
the man who tampered with the sewer
was a sneak thief on the health of the
oily.
The pay rills of the otty street o.m-
mlssloner and the sewer commissioner
were allowed.

voting on the q lestlon.
STREET OAR LINE CHANGE.
The following proposition was read
by the clerk:
"The undersigned respeo’fnliy pe-
titions yonr honorable body for your
permission to oonstrnot a track, and
co grant R the right of way for Its
street railway on Myrtle street, or
Myrtle avenae, beglnnlrg at the point
of intersection of Its present track oo
Ban Antonio street and Stanton strse';
ibeuoe down the middle of Myrtle
street, or Myrtle avenae, or Its cross
sireets, to lnolude from Myrtle avenae
to Magoffin on Cotton street to the
point of Intersection of Ootton bvsdu*
and said Myrtle Btreet, or Myrtle ave
uue. Said track to be oommenoed
within six months from the dete of
i he granting of snoh right, and to be
completed within any saob time as
designated by yonr honorable body.”
H R Wood,
Fur the E Paso Street Railway Com
pany of E Paso, Texas.
Alderman OolJwell suggested that
something diflalte be dine. He was
opposed to granting Indefinite privi-
leges.
The mayor was authorized to ssnd a
woman to Col on, Cal.
Mr. Cliff ud got up to tell why be
had been wrong In au hir'zlcg the
fixing of scrip for olty ( ffioere.
i was ordered that the police and
the otty reoorder be paid out of the
special fund, aid iharno other 6orlp
be drawn on that fond.
Mr. Ul ffird Intimated that some of
the men were getting mire for their
sorlp than was allowed by the oounoll.
Judge Coldwell said that the olty
by depreciating Its own sorlp had done
more toward bankrupting the olty than
any one else. He Bald that the prao
tloe of raising sorlp was U.egal and that
the Usurer of raised sorlp could be
held responsible
Alderman C iff ird effered apologies
for the me;bods of hie oommlttee and
then ootdemned the methods.
Judge Coldwell questioned snob
methods and said ihat thes-ecual
food oould be Increased by adding
bBok taxes to the speolal fund.
Alderman Clifford wanted to go be-
hind the ordinance and tlx the pay of
policemen at 173 per month. Last
week, bowsver, Mr. Clifford wanted to
ouv rtf the polios foro*. And Mr.
Oiifford’a motion to thateifeot carried
The pay of 'he mounted police was In-
creased to 185 per month.
Judge C (.dwell made a modest klok
against any further Increase In sal-
aries. He said that the publlo reading
the oold report of th* proceedings
would lead people to believe that the
ooanotl had nothing to do bat Increase
salaries.
It was agreed that the ohlef of polloe
and the night captain should receive
a percentage iqual to tre discount on
olty sorlp.
Alderman Whitmore thought (hat
the whole matter of raising salaries
should not be rnshed through as rag
gesterl by Mr. Clifford; but should be
referred to the finance oommlttee for
Investigation.
Oa motion of Alderman Coldwell the
oounoll reoins'dered Its aotton In or-
dering an Inorease of salaries and re-
ferred the matter to the polloe oom-
mtttee.
Judge Coldwell called attention to
the oow pen natsanoe and asked the
olty attorney to prepare a oow ordin-
ance.
Alderman Coldwell also oalled at-
tention to needed repairs on 0 egen
strest and his remarks oalled forth the
lnfcrmaMon that there was I1G89 in the
street Improvement fund. It was
asked If the otty h .d to pay for deoent
sidewalk' in front of a man's hoi si.

“I want to say,” said Dr. C T.
Kaos yesterday, “that Mr. Freuoh Is
not In the least to blame for the death
of Robert L Blaok. Mr. French did
volunteer to give Blaok the Keeley

Mr. Blaok himself, and Mr. French
osnnot refuse such .an appeal as was
mads to him. Mr. Blaok had simply
rsaohsd hla end and nothing that
dootors oould have dons wonid bsvs
saved him. However, I remained with
him until the poison was oheoked arid
until he was resiltg easy. Brain
tronble caused his sudden death. And
yet yon oannotoall It euddeo because
he had bean dying for weeks."

“It seams strange to me," piM a
polloeman last night, “that the otry
ooanotl oakndtappreciate that It woald
be saving mossy to '.bo olty to pay the
polloe foroe salaries la oash from the
speolal (and oreated by the polloe.
Alderman Clifford's proposition to In-
crease the pay of pillo.msn from 170
to 175 per month Is no saving to the
olty and does not pay the police If
they have to sell their sorlp at 87 oents
on the dollar. The otty loses fo on
every policeman and the officer also
loses on the transaction. Tbe proper
thing for tbe olty to do wonid be to eot
on Judge Gold well’s suggestion—pay
tbe polloe cash oat of tbe fund oreated
by tbe polloe. That would be muob
more just and more sensible then to
have toe polloe runnlDg aroond town
offering their sorlp to the highest bid-
der."

The railroad amendment reoelved six

Oae strange feat.are of the election
was that those who had no lands In

"Thi Q ladrllla preolno',” salda Ysleta

Outside of Qiadrllla and Ei Paso the

morning a Times reporter bad an In
tervlew with Dr. Reoe, who stated that
the Keely oure medlolne administered
to Blaok had nothing whatever to do
with his death. "To tell the truth,"
said Dr. Raoe yesterday, “tbe poison-
ing had nothing whatever to do with
Black's dsath. Ha bad already run
bis raoe and his death was only a
matter of time. Mr. Frenob endeav-
ored toextend that time, hoping there
by to save the man’s life. Bat his ef
forts ran contrary to death. He en
deavored to make the man live a
few days loDger than nature
intended, and his efforts only
prolonged Blaok'a life a few
boars. He had burned the oandle to
Its eookets, and oould not burn any
longer. Mr. Frenoh did not take the
case unsolicited. But he was asked to
do all lu his power to save Blaok aud
he did so. He exerted every effort,
but It was too late."

noon aDd those who had been kindest
to him were Invited to bear his
remains to the grave.
