Citt Corwcita The regular meetings of Olty
Uoanclle were held yesterday afternoon, the usual
The lobby attendnnce wits limited. The weather
entelde was too pleasant, and the usual lobby
members were tunning themselves npon the toad
stools in Independents square. This waa the busi
ness transnc'ed. '
Select ffranrA. President Sperlng was la the,
chair; a quorum present.
A voluminous batch of private petitions were
presented. They mainly nsk for facilities of gas
and water, paving and grading. They were; re
ferred to committee.
Mr. Pollock offered a petition for the opening of
Twenty-eighth, and other streets, In the Twenty
sixth ward; also, one for permission to erect a
wooden building at Sixteenth and t'itzwater.
One was presented for the construction of a sewer
at fceventeemh and Fllzwaier. This is named as
a special claim, as It i necessary that a culvert
should be run from Seventeenth street to Twenty
fifth. A note was received from Frederick A. Oraeff,
Esq , Chief Engineer of the Water Works, rela
tlve to leasing, for refreshment purposes, the house
at Falrmonnt garden. Mr. Uraetf suggests that
the mansion may be needed by the city before tb
end of a year.
Mr. Hodgdon offered a resolution that the Chief
Engineer of the Water Department bs authorized
to rent the refreshment saloon at Fairmount at
such rate as he may deem proper, and for such
time as he may consider that the Water.. Depart
ment can dispense with lis use. This resolution
passed.
A resolution was offered that the contract for
supplying Iron pipe for the city be awarded to It.
I. Wood A Co., as thus:
For 4 Inch pipe, 12 feet long, 970 for 8240 lbs.
For H, lu and 12 do, 67
One-halt of 6-inch pipe, (advertised for,) (07 00.
i, ii 71 su,
PTancb.es, sleeves, Ac, 4 cents per pound.
Mr. King objected in earnest terms, lie said
that he had received credlb.e information that a
lower bid had been made, and he wanted a little
light on the subject.
Mr. Hodgdt n admitted that this was the case. A
gentleman laft year having the contract failed to
perform it. Ills place was burned down, and he
conld not fulfil his contract. His time was ex
tended, and when the pipe did come It was of
much interior quality. Hesides this, there was
much delay and disappointment, because the
streets were prepared to receive the pipe.
Mr. Shermer explained that the difference In the
cost of the pipe last year, between the two lo went
bidders, was bnt 200. The city had lost a great
deal more than that, first by delay, and second, by
the Interior quality ot the iron.
Mr. Smith said that this was the first time he
had ever beard that Mr. Middleton's pipe was of
Inferior quality. But the extension given to him
by Councils has not yet terminated. Councils
dealt hardly with him. In the midst of his cala
mity be went out and bought pipe, that he might
fulfil his contraot. If It was of inferior quality,
be obtained the best he could.
Mr. King claimed that Mr. Middleton's bid Is
9'tUii) lower than that of the Messrs. Wood, and
the Committee Is bound to give it to him. Ue has
filed ample security, and has ground for action
against the city In case the contract is not awarded
to him. Mr. King earnestly urged a reference or
recommittal of the subject to the Committee on
Water.
Mr. Cattell explained that he was one of the
committee who awarded the contract to Mr. Mid
dleton. He was now In favor of giving it to Mr.
Wood, because bs did not believe that Mr. Mid
dleton conld by any possibility fulfil the contract.
He bad encountered misfortune, and for this tha
speaker was extremely sorry. But the city wants
the pipe very badly, and the contrast should be
given to the person best able to fill it. Mr. Mid
dleton is virtually released from his late contract,
and It is not well tor the city to render itself liable
to a second disappointment In the same manner.
After a long debate a note was received from the
Chief Engineer, explaining that, even with the
cash difference against it, the offer of Mr. Wood
was the most advantageous tor the city. Mr. Mid
dleton has not yet recovered from his disaster,
while Mr. Wood is all ready to begin the work.
Besides, the pipe should be cast vertically, and
this Mr. Middleton is not able to do.
The matter was recommitted.
' A note was received from the City Solicitor rela
tive to the extension of Fairmount Park, reporting
the late setting aside by the District Court of the
award made by the jury of damages on the exten
sion of the park to the owners of the property to
be taken. He suggested the appointment of a new
committee to settle all claims before new legal pro
ceedings shall be commenced.
Mr. Wagner moved that a joint special commit
tee of three from each Chamber be appointed to
adjust all these claims.
Mr. King said tbat four out of six of the jnry In
that case had been impeached by the Court. Ue
would not take the judgment of that jury. The
awards made that were low were very low; those
tbat were high were very high. The one was as
tirriirhtBouB as the other. What was the cause for
the low awards the speaker conld judge. The
cause lor the high awards was equally palpable.
The speaker thanked the City Solicitor for his sin
cerity, but he (Mr. King) would not serve upon
such a committee, and hoped that none of his
brethren in the Chamber would do so.
Mr. Kerr thought tbat a committee of Councils
could best do this duty, because, alter all, the en
tire Councils would act upon the matter.
A motion to postpone, and make the subject the
special order for next meeting, was not agreed to.
The resolntion was agreed to.
The bonds of Messrs. Hill and Smith, street con
ti actors, were released.
A petition of the West Philadelphia Fire Com
pany, that they may croes this side the Schuylkill
in case of fire, was referred.
A bill to pay sundry long pending claims against
the city was passed.
Mr. Hodgdon reported the condition of the City
Treasury, as follows:
Cash balance on band April 1, 1667, $1,241,311 26
To payment of interest
on city loans, - - $601,255 13
To payment of V. S.
fund securities, - 230,357 03
To payment of sundry
Claims, - - 340,699 1081,211,311 20
A resolution Instructing the Committee on Sur
veys 10 Inquire as to the expediency of construct
lng a culvert over Couocksiuk Creek, and opening
Columbia avenue, was referred.
A batch of police appointments were then con
firmed. .
Mr. Smith offered a resolution that the Commis
sioner of City Property erect a fountain in each
square, of halt an acre in extent, and one foot
deep, for tbe special use of Young America.
Mr. Smith read an,extracllrora some newspaper,
which he said embodied bis views. Such foun
tains exist in Paris, and in them the children sail
their boats or miniature Bhips, bearing the flags of
all nations.
The subject was referred to the Committee on
City Property.
The resolntion withdrawing the request to the
Governor not lo sign the South Street Bridge bill
was called np.
Col. Page said that he owned much real estate
in South street, near Nineteenth. It would be
much enhanced in vain by this movement, and
so would ali the property in the city. The city
had sadly neglected this portion, which has no
outlet save the miserable Penrose Ferry Bridge.
Yet the speaker would never vote for the erection
of this bridge outside of tbe city authority, and
given over to jobbers and speculators. He could
well understand how such jobbers and railroad
companies should advocate the building of the
bridge, no matter how it is done.
Mr Kerr said he had authority direct from the
Governor's lips to say that Le would veto the bill
unless Councils directed him to do otherwise. He
will do in tbe matter exactly as Councils desire.
Councils stand firmly, mis bridge will not this
vea" be bu" and the treasury will hsvealltlle

Mr. Wagner moved to reconsider the vote by
which the proviso of October 28,- im',5, to lay water

The Chamber agreed to recouBlder, and the ques.
tion was then laid over for a third reading.

Nr. Kav, Chairman of the Highway Committee,
submitted resolutions Instructing the Chief Coin
mlseioner of Highways to advertise for proposals
for tramway, gutter and crossing stones necessary
for the use of the city for 1HI7,
Mr. Harper objected to the reception of such a
report lrom the committee. A committee has no
right to originate business.
Mr. Kay said that be had been instructed by the
committee to present the resolution, but he would
withdraw It from the committee's report, and In
dividually oiler the resolution.
Mr. Harper moved a reference to the Committee
on Highways. . .
Mr. Potter hoped not. The committee had con
sldered tbe matter, and had unanimously favored
the advertising for stone. The committee had
urged the Highway Department to advertise lor
stone, bnt they had refused, on the plea that If ad
vertitementa Invited proposals, tbe Department
could rot control awards, and a Democrat migh t
get the contract.
Mr. Blllington advocated prompt action. The
other committees of Councils, excepting the Com
mittee on Gas, have supervision ot the expenses of
their respective departments. Why should the
Highway Department make their contracts with
out advertising I
Tbe motion to refer was Ignored.

j Mr. Potter rose to object, bnt Mr. Marcer an
nounced that the ordinance to create a loan for one
million eight hundred thousand dollars for the
purchase ot the EanBdowne estate, and to pay de
ficlences, was the special order of the day at four
o'clock.
Mr. Marcer said that the question before the
Chamber was the excision ot the one hundred
thousand dollar clause for the erection of a house
of correction.
Mr. Simpson Inquired If the loan could not be
continued in the bill, and the wording house of
correction" changed lo "enlargement of the county
prison."
Mr. Marcer ruled otherwise, stating that the city
could not change the wording of a loan bill after it
had been advertised.
Mr.Hetzell argued in favor of continuing the loan
fcr the House of Correction, people demand such
an institution, and Councils, if they longer tinker
with tbesuoject, will deny the people their wishes.
Mr. Littleton doubted the propriety of tbe City
Solicitor's opinion in reference to the building of
tbe House ot Correction. This opinion was given.
In our Council report of last week Keporter. He
considered that tbe power to appropriate money
implied the right and authority to erect all build
ings necessary for public purposes.
Mr. Warner Rftifi ma'- tne law annoinunz ine
Board of Commissioners to erect the house of
correction specially directs that the means there
lor must be raised by a loan for twenty. five years.
councumen must not allow zeai to run away witn
discretion.
Mr. Potter said tbat he would join in erecting a
house of correction, and procure the means of
doing so by the legal process named. But tbe
other Items In tbe loan bill should be passed, and
the house of correction can be erected afterwards
by means to be obtained.
Tbe motion to strike out the one hundred thou
sands dollars was disagreed to, and the ordinance
passed. .

nue; for board sidewalks on Hancock street, Chel
ton and Willow avenues, and Dewey's lane; to

streets; to open Boyer street, Eighteenth ward.
These were all agreed to.
Mr. Rav offered a resolution that as in the case of
the award to the owners of property at Fairmount
Park, it was evident tbat James Boyd endeavored
to unjustly obtain money, the Commissioner of
City Property be directed to remove James Boyd
from the post of superintendent of Penn Square.
Mr. Palmer desired to know If Mr. Ray was po
sitive of the identity of the man I
' Mr. Hetzeil said he bad been a member or tne re
cent committee of inquiry into the awards, and
tbat the juror and tue superintendent were the

all railway companies, within sixty days, to pave
th, space between their tracks with the Nicoison
pavement, the Commissioner of Highways, In the
non-compliance of the railroad companies, to have
the streets so paved at the expense of the com
panies. Mr. Hancock said that the travel on the tracks
was so great that the stones between tbe rails are
now worn to the smoothness o( glass. The footing
is so slippery that horses can scarcely draw the
heavy loads to which they are daily subjected
Justice to the horses requires this legislation. The
subject was relerred to the Committee on Law, to
