Mr. Ilodcsou. of the Comtuiitee on Water,
reported an ordinance. Mr, Hodgson desires
that water pipo be laid m Eiatun street, from
Morns to Tasker streets, in the, I'Vn Ward, as
iiiso In various streets in the Fifth, ElghtPenlh,
Nineteenth, Twenty-sixth, nnd o'.her wards.
The ordiuRnrn was ased.
Mr. Harlow oil', red a resolution. It instructs
the Hiphway Department to tramway Ilye street.
First Ward, from !?aranao street tu its southern
lerniiniiH. Referred.
The bill from Contra ou Council fixing the tax
rate at iViO was taken up.
Mr. rn-re moved to recommit the bill. He
took the pround that $1-50 per hundred dollars
was the lowest sum that would sulliciently In
bricatc the wheels of the municipal machinery,
lie read a very voluminious and elaborate
japer, siistuiuiim hi motion.
Mr. (JilliLRham recondiri the motion.
Mr. Kmj! assented to the truth of all that Mr.
rntie bad naid.
Mr. Hodgson argued that Mr. Pape, in his
document, had made many errors, which he
proceeded siriatim to point out. Mr. Hodirson
went over the various estimates, exhibiting the
errors of calculation into which he believed Mr.
Pntre had fallen.
Mr. Smith said that he had o thoroughly
lipured up the matter, that he doubted it any
oue could move bun lrom his position. Hp had
Koue over the whole matter, and was satisfied
that 1'50 would be the least amount ot taxa
tion that could furnish the means to carry on
thp Citv Government.
Mr. Hopkins aNo urped the inadequacy of the
turn of $140 as the tax per $100.
Mr.Cattell demonstrated that In a fair busi
ness point Ot view $W0 was sufficient. A irriiw!
business man, in his own bu-ines matters,
could very easily make it so under the same
conditions.
On the motion to recommit, the yets were 10,
the nays were 15. Therefore it was lost.
Mr. Smith moved to amend by making the
late $1'60 per oae hundred doliius.
Mr. King said that he was not prepared to
vote. There was nothing upon which he could
predicate an opinion as to the amount that
would be requisite. He thonpht that this fixing
ot a low rate was a trick to "shut up" the eyes
of the tax payer. It was not cnoiiph, and poli
ticians who sought to "bamboozle" the public by
treteuUing that it was, would be sure to sutler
for so tloinp. If, however, no more light was
thrown upon the subject, the speaker would vote
for the lowest rate proposed that was likely to
pass.
The motion to make the rate $1-50 was put.
The jcas were but 6, the nays 18. So it was lost.
The bill then passed as it came lrom Common
Council.
Mr. Wagner, from the Committee on Law, re
ported an ordinance askinp the Legislature to
confer upou Councils the power to give the use
of Penn Square, lor building purposes, to the
Academy oi Natural Sciences and Fine Arts, the
Franklin Institute, Philadelphia Library, Philo
sophical, and other societies. It was adopted.
A voluminous report from the Chief Engineer
of the (las Works tor the present was laid upon
tue table. Adjourned.
Common Branch. The Chamber was called to
oroer shortly alter 3 o'clock. President Marcer
in the chair.
A communication was received from persons
living in the neighborhood of Currant alley,
asking that the name of that alley be chantjud !
tu Nuuun street. Referred to the Committee on
Survey. 1
Also, a communication from Dr. P. F. Maley
returning the thanks of the Cincinnati delega
tion for courtesies received at the hands of Pin
luoel ptiia Councilmen during their stay in tnis
cny. The communication was accepted.
Mr. J. C. Martin offered a resolution request
ing select Council to me?t Common Council in
joint convention and elect u Port Warden.
Agreed to.
A number of petitions from the several Wards
were received aud reierred to the appropriate
committees.
The ordinance from Select Council making a
transfer of certain items in the annuul appro
priation to the Department ot City Property was
postponed for the present.
Along discussion ensued on the ordinance
lrom Select Council authorizing the erection of
a Cornifh pumping-engiue at the Twenty-first
Ward Water Works.
During the debate the hour of five o'clock
arrived, and the Boiler bill was called up,
having been made the special order of the day
at that hour.
Mr. J. C. Martin moved to postpone the matter
until the Cornish engine was disposed of.
Mr. Potter moved to postpone the bill until
next Thursday, at five o'clock.
Mr. Hetzell pressed the consideration of the
bill. He said he had been intimately connected
with ihe bill for the last six months. He was
tiicd of procrastination, and hoped the bill
would pass.
The motions of Messrs. Martin and Potter fell,
tnd the bill came up.
While the third section was being acted upon,
the members ot Select Council met Common in
joint convention, and elected Mr. Joseph B.
Hodgson to till the vacancy in the Board of Pjrt
Wardens, occasioned by the death of John
Birely, Esq. Mr. i'liilin Pitzpatrick was placed
in nomination by the Democrats. He received
6 votes, while Mr. Hodgson received 42.
The Boiler bill was again tasen up and dis
ciisted. The hour of 7 having arrived, tbp subject went
over until next meeting. Nine sections of the
bill have been thus tar concurred in.

breast wheels at Fairinount, to make room f.r
