CITY INTELLIGENCE
For Additional Lomii Jtrms sn Ft , j uoi.)
City Cc uscii.c. J ho regular m 'dings of
City Councils were hold yestoruuy.
fteltct JSraiult. Mi. Lynn in tho chair. A com
munication wan received Hum G. F. Gordon, In
sector of Streets Tho CI mr announced it to bo a
verv toIi mi i: one document
Mr. Bun m requested its reading, inasmuch as he
had ofloied a ie-0 ulion ot inquiry w hy the Eigh
teenth and Nineteenth Wards :-ave not bceu visited
hy tho public scavengers,
1 ho .coiiimuuication wan read. Mr. Gordon ad
mits the justice oi the complaints. He savs tti.,t
over two hundred written complaints have been
leceivrd, and that too coiittactors lor the district
named liavo sadly iiojrlec ed their business. Many
complaint rticrred to the Hoard of lloitlth have
been returned "atiennodto," when not a thins has
been Hone conceding them. Upper Delaware ave
nne has b.en louehed but once in two mouths, and
lu the Wards named one hundred and tour street
have not e, been touched by the preont con
trectors. T!:c writer says thiu desnito tho covert
attacks ot interestnd parties .10 shall con inu.) to per
form Ins duty, r jrii'g upon ilie conlldeiice ol his
fellow-cUzons and tho support ol his Honor the
Mayor.
Mr, Van Cleve said that tho entiro tenor and pur
port of this communication should receive the Con
di mi Ktion ol City Councils. Tins official seems to
have only on amtj.tlou, and that was to annul and
Irtak these contracts, His whoio communication is
atissuool iusi'huods from hou-inuing to end. Ho
hud no ooner been the recipient of the appointment
tiian iio openly stated that lie wouid break ui tho
contiucior lor the northern dis'rict There wore no
complaints Irom tun southern district, yet it was
even in a wor-o condition tnuu the northern d strict,
Jheie i ample reason why ttiee contractors cannot
now enter into the spirit and letter ot tho ontract
tliey have taken. Tlio require a little time to pot
their dtimpinp places. The s.ieakcr know that tho
Mavor did not cm.so Gordon's communication.
He knew that the Ma or hud to d Gordon th.it r,.n.
sonajlo time must l,o Riven to tne contniciors to do
their nork. Instead oi nuliiiir them ho has continu
ally annoyed tlirm, and unle ss l:e desists the speaker
would at an early uuy move 101 thu abrogation of
his ofiice.
Every one of tlie di-appoinled applicants for tho
contract lie in the northern n-trict. They have
formed a combination, and a'l tie-so complaints aro
instigated bv them, ami everything tends to show
that this man Gordon is a oarly to the combination.
Ihesc dirty politicians arc op-used to tho contract
system, and with Gordon to uid them will continue
to harass and persecute gentlemen who aro rapid y
making the city as clean as any in tho Union, They
found the city with six months' accumulation upon
tho streets, and, alter but two months' lubor, are
annoyid and persecuted by the very mon trotu
whom thev should rcee.vo all possible tacilities.
Be-ides tins people u-o now cniryinir out to tho ash
carts the accumulations ot a whole winter, and
these, in the spirit ot tlie contract, w.-ro tho con
tractor captious, he would be uuder no oolitruiion to
remove.
Mr. Gray expressed the belief that this was a very
unusual and captious attac upon a city ofhcial,
whom he oeheved to bo correct in all hi sta'etneiits.
As compared with the upper district the soutaorn
section ot the city is in irouJ condition, and the
speaker believed that the Mnvor to-day is sick at
heart that he ever iravu tho contract to the parties
who now hold it
Mr. Huniin said that Ik had introduced the reolu
lion uceanse in sonio pait ol Ins own and the Nine
teenth Wards the uirt was two leet deep; c miplaivts
were coming in to him at a rate so auuovin?iy tnat
he would have been lalso to his duty ns a ropresun
tauve had he not introduced tho resolution, since
then, however, the contractors had been at. work in
the districts complained of, und the streets hail been
cleansed. It was hili mm,, however, and ho wus
glad that the work hud been done.
Mr. harlow regretted the outburst upon tho part
ot Mr. Van Cleve. Tho communication was not a
tissue ot lal-ehoods, but an epitome of facts pre
sented to tho .Mavor. That genticman has been so
annoyed by complaints that he was obliged to re
monstrate with Mr. Mintli in very earnest toim.
It wa ri-a ly a cruolty so to attack a street inspector
who was eudoavonng honestly to do his duty.
Mr Van Cleve said it was strange that Mr. Harlow
should defend a man who hud maligned upon the
open streets tne gentleman, who had just spoken, as
well as liiniH-lf; who had said that ho should bo
fixed" as wo 1 as thev. Ihc contractor are going
sttndily through tne entire district, and hy tho expi
ration el tiiis week "will b us'np Btroct-sweoping
machines, and will be ablo to report tho entire dis
trict c:eaued. I lie dirt in p aces theie has been re
movable only by the pick. .Some of the authors of
notes to the Mavor havo since acknowledged that
they were m-Usaicd to wiite them by nitere-ted
parties. I'hu Mayor, however, is tlie only judge in
the matter.
The subject was ultimately ro erred.
Mr. Bnriow moved that the Committeo on Law be
discharged Irom the consideration ol the resolution
reiuesuiir tlie opinion of the City Solicitor in regard
to the power ot a I ommitteeo! Investigation to com
pel the attendance of witnesses.
Colonel J'aue siiepestod that tVe resolution should
remain with tho Committee ior the present. The
(iuestiou originated in th-- resolution coula be tested
when the tune comes.
1 he motion to discharge the Committor was agreed
to, and the tesolution came Lelore the Chamber for
action.
Mr. Barlow said that the Chairman of a Special
Committee (Colonel l'ape) a legal gentleman, was ot
opinion that witnesses could bo subpoenaed before a
special committee. The s.icakor. one of tho same
committee, did not believe tlie committee possessed
the power to coimel the attendance ol witnesses.
Believinx this, he was not disposed to continue an
invcstipaiion until he obta-ned the legal opinion of
the fclty Solicitor, lie would not continue in a li-li-ing
expedition into the mauagemeut of the uas
Works when there had been no charge made against
tloso having control. Mr. Harlow referred to iho
proceedings in the Committee, and complained that
the Chief Engiueer ot the G-.ts Works had not been
treated jropeny when summoned beiore the Com
Uiit.ee Colonel Tage, in rply, said that heretofore In bis
remarks he was caielul not to allude to auvining
that passed in the Committee because lie considered
it a breach of confidence to relate anything uDtil
the report is submitted in regular form. Thu con
duct ol the gent. emao irom the First ( Barlow) did
not surprise him, oecause he suw from the beginning
that so tar as the gentlemin was concerned tuore
was no inclination to proceed with the investigation,
and every member of the Chamber must now come
to the nine conclusion. I! tiie gentleman wishes to
know who prompted this investigation, 1 will tell
him. Ihe iiMic that publ.c to which the gentle
man professes at all times to pay so much defer
ence Now, with respect to the opinion of the City Soli
citor, to which a lusiou has ben made, 1 did say at
first, and I sav cow, that tins Council had power to
compel the attendance ol witnesses; that it had
power to adnuui-ttr an oat'i to a wnness. Up to
that toint tho law i clearly nt i the (Dumber. The
grave doubt antes in regard to our power ot issuimr
an attachment, and the poer to cjmpe; the wi'ness
to swear. These are questions, however, which
hbould not le la'sed beiore the proper time. Hut
the ventltmau t inks of this in auvance. Whyf
Why should he assume 'hat ivitnesies will not at
tend or consent to be swoiu? He says there are scl
ent ilie questions to be propo i.ded. How does ho
know it ?
Mr Barlow You s'ated so.
1 olouel l'age ihe gentleme i misunderstood me. 'j
I was caretul not to sav auwhing of the kind. I !
did not chooe to lmorin the geuilemen of thn other '
side w hat I proposed to do. : ho gentleman says I J
was discourteous to a witness. That is not true,
ana me mem' ers oi me oiuiuiiiee will sustain mo
in the assertion. They w ill shv (hat the rebuke thon
administereu io the indiviuoal was well merited.
The gentleman himself slum d have stood up for
the dignity ot the Chamber. The insult was not
direrteo to me, but to the Council, which the Coin
mi. toe represented. As to an insult to me, I have
only to say that no gent ein in will and no black
guard can. It is to he regretted that this Cham
ber does not make its power ruspecUnd In the
streets I am as any ottier man. but in fiis Chamber
and on a committee I am entitled to respect, and
when I Ian to recede it the insult is directed
at the Chamber, not me. 1 saw when tins Com
mittee was appointed the lmpies-ion was that
a majority was in favor of a rigid examination. I
am bound to say, that with the single exception of
the peutleman Irom the First (Uarlow), who has
shown no disposition to make the examination, the
other members of the Committee have aided aud
assisted me in the discharge oi the duties, and this
trentleman is the oulv one who has int mated that
the conduct ol the chairman was not what it ojglit
to lie. 1 thing I can survive the criticism of the gen
tleinan. It you hint to the witness, as the geutie
n.an piopoes, it is practically to put an end to ail
investigation. Hut 1 do not despair. I will go oc
with the examination, and I may secure witnessos.
Notwithstanding what has been said bv the gentle
man, I should bj glad to have his aid; but his open
opposition is prelerable to ui biuts. I may obtain
w.tnesses who will not like tjo gentleman no, I
withdraw that the individual (looking at Mr.
Manuel )
Mr. Mucnel (rising) I have not said a word to
you, sir.

II r. Simpson explained tnat a new Station House
most be elected at Manavnnc. Iho old oni is
tomb ing down. Jt wa bu t years ago by tho o 0
hurt ugh ol Manavutik and cost, the city noth iif.
1 hat a new station must be bui.t no one will deny
who has ever pasi-ed an hour in the house.
Mr. Vox said that although the Stanon miglit bo
recced, yet the Cnamber must look die qiionion in
the lace, J here are quIks doe by tho cny to tho
vagrants who lodge In Mation Houses, but thn pre
cedent, it inaogurab d, will lead to a new Station
Houso in nearly every ward of the city. A dutv
huherthnn any to a vagrant is nuo by tho munici
pality to tho laborers whose warrau's are daily sold
in the streets.
Mr. Iiancock said tho Chamber mi rht tn In- nin

I he matter was postponed for ono week.
Mr. I'almer otlered a resolution that as thi In-
spector ot Streets hid advertised tiat tliecitizem
must only plnco ash' s on tho footways ot tho stroels
on certain days, and as tho peoplo generally have

Mr Wo:bert said tho matter belonged to th
Slayor ol tlie ci:y ol i'hihidelphin. Let. In in report
am ot ncenieiils. Too whole citv knows that a oilier,
n a igi am attack has been made on the contractor
fo ihc i orthein distiict, and Iho ntiack is false.
i lie contractors havo had no opportunity. Woilo
they have i-et u aipointed lor only two mouth-,
they have been dragged info committees, into
Councils, and into Court. The charge against them
arc in s, and tlie lie should bo nailed and trac d to
its source
Mr. Kvans said that so iar as the Fifteenth Ward
Is concerned, ine conductors have signally tailed to
do their duly. In some ot the principal streets tho
ashe- wero icmoved, but, in the alleys and tho iittlo
streols where the people are not clamorous for re
dicss, the sshes have niver been taken lioin tho
I oxes where they were first nt-poaitcd. In some
cujCs instanced by Air. Evans tha n-di boxos have
leeu standing on the pavement., undisturbed lor
tline weeks. So grievous is tho fault in tho Fif
teenth V urd, that the citizens are moving in tho
matter and will take away tne ashes themselves,
Mr. hix advoea'cd putionce. Tho northern dis
trict contractors had met unexpected dillicultios.
'Ihc ashes they wi re called uoon to remove have, in
many cases, been tlio accumulation ot lour or live
months prior to the dute of the contracts. II ihe
people will only wait qu etlv, the contractors vill
overcome their troubes, and then tlio city will
bavu clean streets and tho ashc3 will be removed
reettlarly.
The motion to indefinitely postpone was lost
Vf-fift t. nnva 90
A.r. Kvans asked why Councils wore afraid to
direct the Chiet Inspector to report tlie ca ise of tha
delinquency t The icport ol that oflic-al can bo
criticized, it will be beiore Councils, aud they csu
rev.ew it. If it Ib. right there will be nothing io
conetal, but it the Inspector finds I hat the cou trac
tors are lalse to their duty then tho evil will bo appa
rent, and Councils can remove it The motion to
refer to a committee is a blind to put tlio matter to
s.ei p.
Mr. Wolbert snid he was neither an advocate of
the iiitpector nor ot tho contractors. Ho was not a
Inind ot either the nor hern or southern contrac
tors, lit simpiv asked that tho repor. should come
from the Mayor.
Mr. i-ox sa (i tliac all that Councils ought to do is
to cut off the head of the Chiei Inspector of Streets
without deiay. What dependcnci can bo p ucod on
him 1 he ttatcmeut published in last Hamltu's Iht
jmifh was read by eveiy one. Members of Councils
wire openly charged with having been bought.
Were Gordon removed it would be the best work
Coiti cils could do. Ihe Mayor is tne proper oflicor.
Mr. Mok'ey said the Mayor should have tlio cuse
in Ins bands TnoMator is the Court of Appeal in
this case. The Chiel Inspector has visited the Alavor
and then haunted the .street Cleaners' Committee
until he has disgusted tho Committee, and now the
resolution introduced ihis alternooa has been
brought here ir the benelit ol the Chief Inspector.
Ihc Chiel inspector accused members of Council
wiiii being "lixed." ihe speaker oelieved that he
made the accusation. Since Gordon hat been in the
department he has been tireless in his efforts to break
down the couti actors iorthe northern district. Coun
cils should ben are ol such a man.
Mr. Fa mer denied being an advocate of Mr. Gor
don, aud declared that he never spuk-j to the Cure I'
Inspector lor one minute, or to any iriond of tho In
spector. Ihe resolution was not produced alter col
leaguing with the Inspector but at tho mstanco oi a
respectable citizen and ex-Couucilmau ol tae Thir
tet uih ard.
.Mr. Evans said, while the President of' tho Cham
ber leit the chaii to defend tho contrac or, he was
rot the aovtcate ot Mr. Gotdon. Ho was indeneu
dent in action and made no defense ol tlio chief In
spector ith tlie Chief lm-pcctor ho had no colm
sion. Whether the aiiidavit of Mr. Gordon, charg
ing Coupcllmen with corruption, is correct or not tie
w ould not answer now. At the proper time he would
rei-pond to that.
As to Mr. Fox, ttmt gentleman was always opposed
to the duct Injector and wou d have decapitated
him at the start.
'1 he motion to refer to the Mayor passed unani
mously yeas, 30; nays, none.
Mr. Fiauciscus ollered the following ordinance :
Ihe Select aud Common .Councils of tho l ity oi
Philadelphia do ordain, lhat the ofiice of Chief In
spector ol fcitreeis, as constituted nnd organized by
