The llrst nnd most Im portant was that , of an ordinance ordering the Improvement of Twcnt.y-ilrst strict from Burt street tb Izard street , for the reason that a protest has been tiled by a number of the signers of the original petition asking for such paving to be done , and also for the reason that It Is claimed by a number of parties who signed the original petition that they did so under a missapprchcnsion of their rights nnd upon the statement that unless they designated the material they desired used for pa Tint ; the city would pro ceed with the paving regardless of their pref erence of material. Also for the additional reason that under the recent decision of tlio supreme court It Is necessary ihati a petition should bo presented by the property owners owning a majority c/f the feet front age without any condition. In order to fully protect the city nnd prevent the cost of pav ing being put upon the city , ho believes that petitions for paving without condition or qualification should bo llrst submitted before the material Is designated or the paving Is ordered to bo done. Such petitions , ns ho has advised , have been prepared by the city attorney , with the approval of the city engineer and chair man of the Board of Public Works. While the mayor is desirous that such paving as is to bo done during the present year should bo done without unnecessary delay , ho believes that there should Do sufllcicnt caution , in view of the recent decision of the supreme court , as will fully authorize the special assessment necessary to cover the cost of doing all pav ing except intersections. The veto was sustained. The mayor also vetoed the ordinance order ing tlio pavement of Cuming street from Twenty-fifth avenue to Thirtieth street for the same reasons as prompted the Twenty- first street veto. This veto was also sus tained , as werojtho vetoes , for the same rea sons , of the ordinances ordering the paving of Nineteenth street from Farnam to Dodge , Dodge street from Twenty-sixth street to Twenty-seventh avenue. Cuming- , from Thirtieth to Tlllrty-second street , and Slr- teonh street from F/aniam to Howard. Cot Out Sirs. Tuslor'rt Judgment. Mayor Bemls vetoed in the appropriation ordinance two items in favor of Catherine If. Tusler , ono for SCOS.fiO and the other foi $ -l2.'J4 , being th6-amount of principal and in terest of : v certain , judgment in favor ol Catherine II. Tuslpr for taxes paid on ac count of opening Park avenue. A number ol judgments are standing against the city as much entitled to immediate payment as this ono. If such judgments were to bo paiil iu any manner except out of the special fund to bo created for the purK ] > sc of paying the same , the judgment fund and the general oral fund , as well , would bo entirely exhausted hausted within the next thirty days. It was contended by Hdn. A. J. Popplcton , ns wel as Mr. Connell , that all claims or judgments against the city which might bo paid out ol a special fund should bo 'paid only in that way. The mayor was advised that the mat ter of making a special assessment to cover the cost of opening Twenty-ninth avenue is now pending before the council , nut that the same will bo consid crcd by the council when it next sits as a board of equalization. As demon strating the danger of paying any claim oui of the general judgment funa , or genera fund which should bo paid out of a special fund , ho says that ho has been ndvlacd by the citv attorney that the question was1- raised and argued before the district court today as to whether the city has any lo < ra ] right to make an assessment to cover the cost of nn improvement for which the money has already been advanced oy the city. It is contended by counsel ngainst the city that such an assess ment would bo unauthorized , and would bo merely for the purpose of reimbursing the city treasury , for which there is no author ity in law , In place of an assessment to cover the cost of an authorized improvement. While the mayor would bo glad to take such action as would enable Mrs. Tuslor or any other taxpayer to obtain prompt relief , ho could see no other way than to take the course indicated for the protection of the city. The vote was sustained. For the same reasons a similar claim , amounting to $800.1 ! ) , in favor of Louisa Van Cott was vetoed and sustained. Too Jinny Dead IOKI. Another veto wns the claim of Newton Nidny , amounting to $70,50 for 15:1 : dead dogs removed during the month of May. The mayor thought that a good many canines to bo removed In ono month , In view of the fact that the poundmaster had dis posed of several hundred during tno same period. Ho-desired the claim looked Into. The veto wns not sustained. Mayor Bcmls called attention In a com munication to the necessity of an ambulance /or the use of the city , and urged the pur chase of one. Referred to the committee on police. Mayor Bcmls submitted the notice of the building Inspector calling attention to the smoUo ordinance. The mayor suggested that steps bo taken to provide the city hall boilers with smoico consuming devices. The communication wns referred to the commit tee on publlo propdrt-y nnd buildings. The bids uponipormtincnt and wooden side walks were mjeuted nnd the Board of Publlo Works Instructed to readvcrtise. This action was taken ns the council has neglected to ap prove specifications. Mr. Saundcrs'endjijavorcd to secure a hear ing on the fuel gus frnnehlso ordinance , hut failed. A majority of tlio members preferred the regular order of business. A resolution was ndopted empowering the Board of I'uhllu Wprks and city engineer to rouairthowashqiits nnd breaks in the sewers made by the rcccut storm. Deeds , dedicating n portion of Popploton avenue , from Thirty.third to Thirty-fourth street , and Thirty-fourth street , from Pop plcton to WooUxortU avenue , were approved. An approprlatlpni.of $5,000 was imido from the general fuiiii'.for the use of the street commissioner in 'repairing washouts and damage done by the Into storm , The com missioner was instructed to put a force of men at work Immediately on the streets in the different wards. l > 'or a Garbage Contractor. The clerk was directed to advertise for two weeks for bids for the gathering , haul. Ing and cremating or removing from the city all dead animals , garbage and offal of the city for a period of ten years. The 'committee on publlo property and buildings was instructed to purchase the necessary furniture for the ofllces to be oc cupied in the city hall by the chief of police , lire and police alarm system and the super intendent of the building , and to prepare a room in the basement for the storage bat' lories. A map was ordered purchased for the buimtng Inspector , showing the location and character of all buildings on lots in the city , The couimlttco on telegraph , telephones nnd subw.vvs submitted a lengthy report | on dead iwlcs. The committee- found that the telephone company had removed flft.v- three poles and will remove more , Including those In the heart of the city , within the next sixty days ; also that the Western Union company should not be entitled to more than ono line of poles on Parnam street between Ninth and Thirteenth. The company now has two lines. A resolution was adopted giving sixty dnys to tlio com pany to remove the poles on the north sldo. The resolution locating an nro light on the High school grounds , on condition that the Hoard of Indication place another there , was defeated on the motion to adopt. The Judiciary committee reported favor ably upon the ordinance fixing the licenses to bo paid by circuses and the same was adopted.
