The council held a short meeting jeiterday
morning as a committee of the whole and
oniidered several matters , the most Im
portant of which was that with reference to
ho sewer which It Is proposed to conitruct
n the banks of Indian creek , between Bry
ant and M > nster streets. All the aldermen
\ho were pretent seemed to be In favor of
he scheme , but the one thing that bothered
hem was the question ot where the money
\ai to come from. There teemed to be
oino uncertainties as to whether Improve
ments of that nature could be paid for out of
any of the funds provided for by the statutes.
' "Inally it was decided to refer the matter
o the city attorney , and his advice will be
received at a meeting of the committee of
he whole , to bo held next Wednesday cven-
ntf. and It will probably be acted upon at a
council meeting on the same evening.
The matter of grading Perln avenue was
referred to the committee on streets and

The petition of several property owners
at the heid of Fifteenth avenue , setting
'orth the fact that the recent lines run by
