Whether tho Water board should pay
Ho contractors for laying water mains
was a question seriously considered by
General-Manager It. Bcccher Howell and
his colleagues on tho board last night.
Under the board's ruling property Is as
sessed to pay the cost of the mains. Tha
board Is of the opinion that It Is not
bound to pay for these mains until the
taxes are collected
"Hut these contractors performed their
work In good faith and ought to be paid,'
Member W. H. Bucholz remonstrated.
Finally o resolution was Introduced. t6

Lionel Carden, Its minister at the City
of Mexico, was regarded by official Wash

tho purpose of the British government to

At the State department It was denied
that protest had been mado by the United
Statod to the British foreign office
against any of the acts or utterances as
cribed to Minister Carden. From other
sources, however, It was learned that
Ambassador Pago recently sought In

regarding tho attitude of Its representa
