Action Ordered by Meeting of Citizens Improvement Club to Block Com promise on Rentals. The payment of the long-deferred fire hydrant bills, which the city council at Its meeting on Monday nUht agreed to pay upon the bals of the compromise effected with Manager K. W. Hart of the water company, will not be made f a committee appointed at the meeting of the Citizens' Improvement club, held last night it the city building, can prevent It. The club selected a committee and Instructed it to employ an attorney early this morning and secure an Injunction to prevent the payment of the money authnriied by the council's action. A fund of $W0 waa pledged by th members present as a nucleus of a fund to be used in fighting the payment of the bills, amounting to 138.77S.37. The committee was instructed to engage an attorney this morning and begin the necessary action. The commit tee is composed of J. Chris Jensen, W. J. Leverett and A. C. Keller. After each of the other members had declined to ac cept the chairmanship of the committee Mr. Keller waa named, but not until after he had left the building. The city council came In for soma sharp criticism for its action on Monday night In settling the fire hydrant bills on the bais of ") per hydrant when tho existing rate ordinance, which went Into effect after the waler company went into th hands of a receiver, fixed the price at 140. The original bill, amounting to $46,320, for hydrant rentals, dating from the last quar ter of 19C8 to November 1, 1910. was com puted upon a charge of PM per hydrant.

There may be an Interesting race today between the members of the city council responsible for the payment of the water bills and the club committee to see who shall triumph. It Is doubtful If the bills can be paid without the receipt of Man ager Hart, who happens to be In Boston and Is not expected to return until next Monday. It Is also said the compromise bill mut be approved by the regular commit tee of the council before the auditor can legally Issue the warrant. Aldermen Younkeinian and Harding were at the club meeting and took , an active part In the. discussions. It was also Indicated a the purpose of the committee to arrange for a further conference with Attorney General Byera relative to attack ing Hie fifty-year franohise of the street railway company. .
