THE DAILY
CITY COUNCILS.
Itoth nranelirsof CounoilB met yesterday
at the usual hour.
Select Br an en, William S. Stokley,
presiding.
A note was received from Mayor Fox in
forming the Chamber that the bridge crossing
the rtream known aa Ottnner'a Run, in
the Nineteenth ami Twenty-fifth Wards, is
in a condition, of dangerous dilapidation.
Accompanying the note was a report made
to his Honor by the Chief of Police repre
Keniiiig that within the city limits there are
twenty bridges, all of which are either in a
precarious condition of decay or in urgent
need of preventive treatment. During the
past, two months the chief enumerates
the loss of seventeen lives through casual
ties insulting from the bad condition of those
bridges.
The documents were referred to the imme
diate consideration of the Department of
Highways.
An invitation was received from General
Prevost, commanding First Division P. M.,
for the presence of the body in their ofli jUl
capacity on Monday next, ami a review by
t hem of the expected parade. The invitation
was accepted.
A resolution requesting the Mayor to tondT
to ex Governor Curt in tbo use of Ind'ipeu
dmce Hall lor the reception of his friends pre
vious to his departure for Russia,, was
adopted.
Mr. IHimm presented the resignation of
Mr. Kichard Wildey from the Hoard of Port
Wardens of Philadelphia. Accepted.
A petition for th restoration to service of
the Independence Kngiue Company was pre
sented by Mr. Harlow, and referred to Com
mittee on Fire and Trusts.
Mr. Fox reported an ordinance to change
the boundaiies of the first division, Twonty
fil'ih Ward, and creating a new division
therein. This was agreed to.
Mr. Hodgdon, of the Committee on Water,
reported a resolution authorizing the laying
of water pipe in Hediing, Hueknell, Jauk-
n, Sepviva, and other streets. Adopted.
An ordinance by Mr. Cattell, authorizing
additional leases of Girard lauds iu Schuyl
kill and Columbia county, was passed.
A resolution was adopted permitting the
erection of a temporary edifice at Twentieth
and Montrose streets, for temporary use by
the congregation of the new Catholic Church
of St. diaries Horromeo, for purposes of pub
lic worship.
The Committee on Finance reported favor
ably with regard to the appointments of John
M. Melloy, Keceiver of Taxes, and all were
confirmed.
Mr. Cramer reported an ordinance making
an appropriation of S1U00 to the Hoard of
Health, tor a bteamtug for quarantine pur
poses. Mr. Ititcbie submitted an ordinance appro
priating S'jO.OOO for the purpose of erecting a
scboolhouse building in Noble street above
Fifth, iu the Twelfth Ward. The amount to
be reimbursed out of and to be hereafter crea
ted. Agreed to.
Common Council ordinance authorizing the
sale ot nineteen acres of the Almshouse
grounds for the sum of $M00 an acre was
taken up.
Mr. Hodgson favored the salo of the prop
erty, but advocated the doing so by the me
dium of an auctioneer's sale. He referred to
the case of the lease of the Tobacco Ware
house at $8500 more by public outcry than
Select Councils had agreed to take for it. The
Legislature has compelled the city to build a
costly bridge over the Sehuylkilll. The com
pletion of that bridge will enormously enhance
the value of the Almshouse property. The
nineteen acres thus to be given away would
produce to the city .'5800,000. This part is one
of the choicest of tho tract. It contains abund
ance of gravel, and that is what the city just
now needs. To build the bridge will increase
the debt of the city a million of dollars. The
water works must have another loan of a
million and a half; ana with a debt of 512,
000,000 the people are not in a positiou to
endow a college at the expense ot interests so
important. Keep on as we are now doing
and the taxes of the people will soon reach
the figure ot 54.80 in the SUM. Mr. Hodgson
favored the placing of tho proposed college in
Fairniount park.
Mr. Franciscus took directly opposite
grounds; be pronounced the institution to bo
an honor to the country, and a matter rising
far above the value ot dollars ana cents.
The people of Philadelphia generally are In
terested in this matter. They will richly en
dow this institution. One gentleman alons
Is ready to present to it a library of greatyi
value than that owned by any corresponding
institution in the country. Mr. Franciscus
deprecated that spirit which begrudged to au
institution gratuitously educating so mauy
impecunious young men, the privilege ie
sired for increasing its usefulness. Mr
Franciscus dwelt upon the insignificance or'
the mere dollar, compared with the advau
tages derivable from its transfer to such an
institution of learning as the University of
Pennsylvania.
Mr. Hugh Mcllvaine cited a long list of re
cent sales of real estate in the vicinity of the
Almshouse with the prices that it brought; at
the very lowest rate the Almshouse property
proposed to be given to the University for
8000 an acn , is worth $35,000. Let the
streets be opened, and in a very short time
this property would realize to the city 5,000,-
000. Its location is commanding much more
so than a collegiate institution ueea require.
Mr. Smith favored the proposed sale to the
University because the present property of
the institution would give a site for a row of
stately stores, and paying into the City
Treasury a sum in taxation that it will never
receive while occupied as at present. The
city can well afford to make this sale. No
other city would be so chary in dealing with
such an institution as tho University of Penn
sylvania. An amendment was offered to limit the
parcel to be sold to the University to au area
of 400 feet square.
Mr. Harlow moved that further considera
tion of the matter be postponed for three
weeks. Agreed to.
A resolution directing official investigation
into the statement that police warrants have
been forged was adopted.
The ordinance to make an appropriation for
a clock and alarm bell to be placed iu the
Shiiller Hose House, was concurred iu.
Adjourned.
