City Enplnoor Ito oivator , who nail boon Invited to bo present , wonl upon lliovJtncss BtnnU. Ho detailed the various delays with which the paving onllimncoi mot. Ho thougnt thiit there were ltilluonco brought to boar to defeat the nwnrJs tnndo by the Board of Public Woriu. At tno early letting of the pavltiit con tracts seine of the councilman honestly thought that the bids were too high. Then there wns u cliiintro In the pavinj : spocliloa- tlon1which occasioned another delay after the bourd bad Invited bids. In this way considerable time was los.t. After that no told nbout the passage of the ordlnnnco which repeated the old ordinance creating pavlnc districts. Tlili necessitated the In troduction and pnwngo of n now ordlnanco nna the el vine of tbo property owners nnothor thirty days in which to select mute- rial. Ho tuoii ileiutled the manner in which un ninlialt comuany linn muillutod tlio city specifications b.v posting their own printed sllp-i over sections In the specification * which hud been carefully prepared by him self. Unix Not Unlit 111" llnttril Kospotnllili ! . Mr. dither * , wnntoil to know If the Board of Public Works wus not rcsponslolo for the dolny. Mr. Rosownter thought Hint that body wns not responsible for nnv great ntnoiint of it. The board had acted promptly nftcr the pns- page of the ordlnanco , but had been com pelled to advertise three successive tunas. bit. Kosowator had prepared the paving ordlnnnucn for tbo council , but when they pot back Into his hands nftor being with the TUVU.K committee they were so muillntcd that In many lntuncos ho could hardly roc- opnlzu them. The contractors wuntod the Kpccitlcatlons chanced , but when they could not accomplish their end they possibly had something to do with the ordlnunco which was passed by the council and vetoed by the mayor , tolling from the engineer and the Board of 1'ubllo Works the power to praparo the specifications. Then tbo members of the commlttoo and the witnesses drifted off into u general con versation in which proposed charter changes were discussed at great length. Cmiiirtlimiii Stcnl'H Story. Councilman John Hteel , who was called as a witness , Mated that wbon ho ntarted for Sweden in the early part of the season ho supposed that the public Improvements would bo nearly completed when ho re turned. Ho wns surprised when ho learned that nothing hud been done during his ab sence. Ho thought that the first causa of the delay was owing to the fact that each ward \vuntcd the whole of the $ . )0,00i ( that wns voted to pay for the paving of Intersec tions. Committco mcotlngs had boon hold for thii purpose of npportlonlnc the tnonoy nmong the wards , but they bad not boon at tended with any results. Upon the question of replacing wooden with permanent sidewalks , Mr. Stoul stated that as chairman of the committco on side walks and bridges -ho only oracrod such walks whcroho considered tno old walks In A dangerous condition , or when property own ers petitioned for the new walks. THAT l.tlMIHCK CONTKACT. Comptroller OMen Tillies i\cpptlotntotho Sidewalk IiiM'pctor'M KumurliH. If Sidewalk Inspector Wilson ha < discov ered u steal In the city lumber contract bo bus located something that other oDIcmls Icnow nothing of , If tholr tustinnny Is worth anything. Comptroller OHon said that ho had road Mr. Wilson's statement In THE Ben regarding - ' ing the lumber deal. Ho did not want to do the man any Injustice , nor did -no want to say unytnlng regarding the contractors that wes , not absolutely true ; hutono thing was certain Mr. Wilson had cither f.xlslllod or else ho did not understand the situation. If the olUclnls performed tholr duties , and ho thougnt they did , the check system on the lumber was so coninlcitu that : f\v.is impossi ble fur u contractor to steal , even it ho felt BO disposed. Kurly last sprinir ho requested each de partment to ninuo out n htutument snowing what kinds of lumbar would DO needed. The department ! * complied with hU ra- quest , and nearly 1UU illttaruul Kind * cf lum ber were spuclllqil. When tllesn reports \Vcru roiurncd. ho advertised and at Inn letting ting John \Viliiillelcl was found to be tbo lowest bHdar , nnd it win with him that the contract was made. This contract provided for planlu , bo.irJs , joists und stringers of different thicknesses and lengths. Regarding thn or > lorlng of the lumber , ho said that the heads of the departments would state to him tlio kind nnd quantity of lumber needed for oacli job. Than lie would xlvo an order siioclf.vIng Just what wns needed. A duplicuto of oncu or.lor was kept In tno ofllco nnd when the bill was rocolvca It was coi tilled to bv tlio inspector who had received the material. This bill was checked with the original order nnd any thing that did not correspond with the nrdor and the price stntcil In tlio original bid was lliroxvn out mid rujoulod. After the bill hud passed through his ofllco and win Bcrntlnl/.ou very closclv , it parsed to Councilman .tacobson of the Iliuinco committee , who also compared the pncos charged with tlio prices bid. If ho found everything as It should un ho certified to tlu > correctness of ( ho bill and nt ilia next mootIng - Ing of llio council upon the report of the comnilttcu on llnnncn the uinnunt wus In terim ! in the upproprlnttnii ordlnanna. l.timhur Not Spcclllail. Mr. Olson stated that occasionally a boarder or u ( .tick of lumber not covered by" the con tract would bo ordered. In such cases ho compared the prices with oihor lumbar bid iimri , and if Ii wus higher in price the amount charged wus rejected and the council .lion looked the m-it- tor up nnd the amount was not allowed without u porsontil Investigation was made. In spciixlni : of Mr. Wilson's methods , Mr. Olsun siild tlr.lt tlio inspector suunicd to look upon every man us a thief who Intoniiuil to rob the city. Ho reached this conclusion , ho thought , without Just cnuso nnd without nn Investigation of the facts nnd circum stances. Mr. Wilson , ho thought , was ex ceeding the authority grunted him In hU letter - tor of appointment bv the Bourd of Public Wcrln. That appointment provided that ho should Inspect porm.uiont slitmvulKs laid by private parties , hut Instead of doing that ho bud almost entirely nogluotod his duties , nnd hud tnkcii upon himself , without nnv nuthorlly.tho t'iBit ' of Invustlgcting the city of ficials mill the manner ot conducting t'nolr ofllco.f. His appointment road thai hoahouhl bo paid 1) pur day while actually engaged In Inspecting wullcs und the Board of Public Works should certify to the number of days ( hat the man hud been actually enguei'd in imikinc * uoh inspection.

Care is necessary though , to obtain strictly pure , as the market is flooded with so- called Pure White Leads that in reality contain but very little white lead.
