A DIG AT O'MARA AND M'ALEESE.
The Squirrel Hill Electric Eaihray Ordin
ance is Adopted,
BUT THE BIG BUSINESS IS IN POLITICS.
Being close to election time, if. ros with
difficulty that a quorum was secured to do
any councilmanic work yesterday; that, at
least, wag Mr. Skelton's explanation of the
delay in getting a quorum.
The report of Superintendent of Public
Safety, J. O. Brown, giving the detailed ex
penses of his department, was the first mat
ter of public interest met It showed 486
employes in the department. The report
was oraered printed, each member to be
furnished with a copy. The reports of the
City Treasurer, Mayor, Superintendent of
Public Charities, were similarly served,
tare that at Dr. Grimes suggestion a vote
'of thanks was tendered Mr. E. C. Elliot
for his'n, though, as Mr. Lambie pointed
out, it showed that the preacher connected
with that department received a smaller
salary than any other incumbent.
The Squirrel Hill electric ordinance was
read, and Mr. Skelton wanted to know how
it came to be stuck in Councils since last
May. He intimated that he thought there
might be something wrong in it, and did not
yiropose to vote blindly. Mr. Eobertson ex
plained that Forbes street had objected last
year to a steam railway, but had finally con
sented to allow an electric road.
1VHT IT WAS IMPORTANT.
Messrs. Evans and Frew said the road
was of the utmost importance, as at present
a portion of the city was practically further
from the business center than were the towns
of Braddock or McKeesport.
Mr. Lambie objected that only the loca
tions of.the ends of the road were given and
Mr. Frew stated that streets were not named
because there were no streets in the section,
ana the explanation served to give general
satisfaction until Mr. Sullivan arose and
said he would vote against any proposition
to allow electricity as a motor on any street
car railway. Messrs. Eobertson and Evans
said that electricity was the only motor
that could be utilized, as the expense of a
tdable road could not be supported and
horses could not travel on trestles. Mr.
Sullivan stuck to his integrity and voted
"No" against 29 ayes.
Mr. Lambie offered an ordinance regu
Uating traction and electric railways as to
'street crossings, which was referred. The
object is to require the ringing of bells and
to make cars stop on crossings, and that the
gong shall be placed outside instead of in
side. The ordinance for the purchase of a lot
for a hose company in the Thirty-second
ward was passed and sent to Common Coun
cil. Mr. Lambie called up the ordinance to re
peal that part of an ordinance which gives
building inspectors the right to collect fees
from people who take out building permits.
After some discussion the matter was laid
over until next meeting.
THE MOUNTAIN HOSE HOUSE.
Mr. Eobertson offered a resolution in
structing the Finance Committee to include
in its estimate of next year's expenses $5,000
for the building of a house house, etc, on
Mt. 'Washington.
Mr. Lambie opposed instructing the com
'xnittee and said all such requestsshould be
treated alike; that a simple reference to the
committee was all this matter could de
mand. The resolution was adopted, non
'obstante.
The report of City Controller Morrow, of
jthe number of employes and expenses of his
(office was presented and sent to keep other
reports of heads of departments company.
In the mattei of the instruction of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railway Company to
open Boss street to the Monongahela river
and all other Common Council business of
note Select Council concurred in. To get
tnrougn tne ponce were instructed to bring
in some stragglers to make a quorum, poli
tics having become very engrossing. It be
came quite somnolent subsequently vntil a
communication was received from the
Mayor, which made members scratch the
-wax out of their ears and tear their eyes
open.
THE MAYOR'S BOMBSHELL.
To the President and Members of Select and Com
mon Councils of the City of Pittsburg:
Gextlesien Law and custom have made it
the duty of tne Mayor to submit from time to
time to the public, through Councils, sugges
tions and information in regard to the govern
ment of the city, and In accordance therewith
I respectfully submit the following for the con
sideration of your honorable bodies:
The growth of our city is a proper subject of
pride to every citizen; but the large increase of
municipal expenditures, in the opinion of many
taxpayers, is considered greater than efficient
end economical government would seem to
require. In a communication to your honor
able bodies on Jannary 23 nit, I referred
briefly to this subject; but,owing to the meager
departmental estimates at that time, I was un
able to make the suggestions to which I now
invite your consideration; and, while the esti
mates now furnished are in some decree vague
and Incomplete, they furnish material for in
teractive comparison.
1 assume that the public is willing to pay lib
erally for efficiency but nothing for waste and
extravagance, and, in view of the increasing
expenditures, it is a grave question whether
the public is getting proper equivalent for the
expenditures indicated in tho estimate. No
citizen will object to a proper increase in ex
penses; but an examination of the depart
mental estimates shows a larg6 increase in al
most every direction, some items being doubled
and trebled without any apparent necessity for
such an increase, and, in order to make this
plain to the public, a brief comparison of these
official estimates is herewith submitted:
Public Worto Highway Department.
1887. 18S8.
Salaries S 6,000 10,095
Inspectors 2,590 6,676
Labor 83,440 83,506
A LITTLE COKTKAST.
It will be noted that, while the actnal Increase
of labor is trifling, the increase of salaries is
nearly double, and inspectors' nearly trebled,
and I question whether the pnblic is prepared
to accept such a large increase.

Foel

Hose.
.Miscellaneous expense..
Insurance fund
balarles
Some of these expenditures are more than
doubled, and alt of them greatly in excess of
the previous year. One of the Items placed in
these estimates as a basis of expenditure for
the coming year is hay. at 3 per ton. It is
well-known that hay could have been pur
chased during the year at 114 per ton, and, as
the city has ample storage room, there is no
reason why it should not purchase it at least as
low as a private and smaller purchaber.mstead
of paying 88 per ton extra, or nearly 60 per cent
higher. The fire hose purchased by the city is
guaranteed for a number of years, as the con
tract ehow;but if from $1,000 to 13,000 worth an
nually becomes so unfit for use as to have to be
replaced, it is questionable whether the hose
purchased is equal to the guarantee; and If not,
why have not the contractors been called on to
make good their guarantee? It would seem,
in view of the large and annuallyincreasing es
timate in this direction, that an exact report of
all the hose in the department, and its condi
tion, would be in order.
In the fire estimate for 1SS9 the item of lost
time is placed at 52,000, and in the same esti
mate o,970 are asked for Insurance of em
ployes. When the Disability Board wascre
ated'it will be remembered that the salaries of
the firemen were increased a sum sufficient to
pay for this insurance. In form the firemen
paid the insurance, in fact the city paid it, and
in the present Instance the city is asked to pay
for the insurance of its employes and.
THEIR LOST TIME ALSO.
Thus a fireman is allowed during his disability
SIS a week, and his pay of $17 16 per week is
also charged to the city, making ?32 26 per
week outlay for a public servant Jnot on duty,
while the firemen actually on duty get but
17 16, aud in addition to this the city furnishes
the injured employe a physician's services free.
I deem it proper to ask whether the city can
afford to put such a high premium on disability,
or whether it can get proper service under a
system which offers such pecuniary induce
ments to tne mness ana trining injuries oi us
servants? It is certainly a novelty in the insur
ance business, and I submit that the repeal of
the act and an allowance of half time would
lessen the cost without impairing the efficiency
of the service.
In reference to the recent award of fire en
gtne contracts and the litigation resulting
therefrom, I have only to say that, in other de
partments of the city government, contracts
are awarded to the lowest responsible bidder,
and I see no good reason for a departure from
such a safe, business-like method in favor of
the highest bidder. I would ask if the pro
dent is to be established of awarding contracts
to the highest bidder, what is to become of the
law, which every public officer is sworn to sup
port, providing for such awards to the lowest
responsible bidder? As to the merits of the
several engines offered I deem it a singular cir
cumstance that fire engines which, after tho
most exhaustive tests, have been selected above
all others by the largest fire departments of the
country, are specifically excluded by our pro
posals ironi even being a bidder. I am in favor
ot public boards exercising a wise aud business
like discretion; but such discretion, I respect
fully submit, should be exercised for the bene
fit of the public
.Police Department
In relation to recent charges against officials
in the Police Department by the press and citi
zens, I would respectfully urge a full and im
partial trial, by an impartial tribunal. The ac
cused are presumed to be innocent until proven
guilty, but their presence on the force in the J
the efficiency of the whole force, and it is a
question whether they should not be suspended
untu tncir guut or innocence nas ueen ueier
mined, as was done in Chicago during the week,
in similar charges against Police Inspector Bon
field and Captain Shaack.
When the Gamewell system was introduced
in this city it was claimed, both m and out of
Councils, that such a system was equivalent in
efficiency to 50 additional policemen, and large
ly on this claim of efficiency the contract was
awarded.
AVERT SHARP QUERY.
How have these promises been kept? I pre
fer to let the official figures speak. When the
system was introduced here, the police force of
the city of Pittsburg consisted of 06 members;
this included six lampwashers which are classed
in anothei department. Instead of this system
being equivalent to 50 men, the fores now
numbers 262 men, or an increase ot 62 over the
number when this police-saving system was
introduced, or over 100 police moro than we
should have, had the claims put forth by this
syttem been fulfilled. It will be found on ex
amination, also, that nearlv all this increase
has been on high-salaried officers, and the num
ber of men actually on patrol duty has been
increased little or none.
In addition to the cost of extra police and
the Gamewell system proper, a further expense
of $15,000 to $20,000 has been incurred for sta
tion houses, necessitated by this system. This,
added to the cost of extra police, makes over
$100,000, a very questionable outlay of public
money. And this fact is perhaps worthy of
vour consideration. It was urged at the time
by those opposed to the Gamewell system that
the first cost of the plant was but the entering
wedge of an expensive system. The contract
price of the system May 7, 1&S7, was $30,000. In
the 12 months since its introduction the system
has cost between $55,000 and $60,000 its mainte
nance doubling its original cost, and this in
addition to tho $100,009 outlay hereinbefore
noted.
In a xnessace of this kind I can onlv refer to
these matters briefly: but, in view of the urgent
demand for restricting public expenditures
within proper limits, I would suggest to your
honorable bodies a careful scrutiny of the in
formation herewith submitted, and a reduction
of expenditures where the same is compatible
with public interests.
I make these suggestions in no spirit ot cen
sure, but in order that the public and their rep
resentatives, who are vitally interested in all
matters pertaining to their taxable interests,
may know how their money Is being expended.
It is for them to applv the remedy. Very re
spectfully, wit. jucuaxlln, Mayor.
THE EEPORT BORE FRUIT.
The communication was referred to the
Finance Committee, and Mr. Frew offered
a resolution that the Chief of the Depart
ment of Public Safety be required to report
at next meeting the number of feet of hose
now owned by the department and the num
ber ot feet bought during 1888, the guarantee
given by the seller and prices paid, brand
of hose and names of manufacturers. The
resolution was passed.
Mr. Cox seemed to think that Mr. Bige
low had treated Councils with contempt in
not filing the report of the expenses of his
department, with the number of employes,
as demanded, and insisted that he be sent
for, and Mr. Grimes seconded the sugges
tion. The demand was honored, and in a
few minutes Mr. Bigelow's lithe form
and smiling countenance both ap
peared at the bar of public opinion.
Mr. Lambie placed Mr. Bigelow at the bar
of the House and moved that he be heard in
bis defense. Mr. Bigelow explained that
his report was in Common Council where it
was customary to report, xhe excuse was
accepted, but Mr. Bigelow wouldn't allow
it to rest there and said he made his reports
monthly both to the Controller and Coun
cils, but Mr. Cox insisted that he had never
heard such report and doubted that it had
ever been offered. The Council, however,
declared Mr. Bigelow purged of contempt
and proceeded to the consideration of routine
business and kept it up as long as a quorum
was within sight.

B
SHOE HAUL
J5S?" At a recent assignee sale of the stock "& '
of a prominent Lynn, Mass., Shoe "a
JBT manufacturer, the agent of the firm of -a
J5ST J. Kaufmann & Bros., Pittsburg, bought "a
BSF over two-thirds of the entire stock. "
J5ST This is unquestionably the largest pur- "a
JBST" chase of the kind ever known. (Boot "3
JJ and Shoe Gazette.) "a
The above is self-explanatory and needs no comment. All we
will add is that these goods are of the class we have the exclusive
reputation of carrying The Very Best. The purchase required a
very large amount of Spot Cash and we got every pair at a ridicu
lously low price. The entire stock is new and fresh, having been
especially manufactured for the coming spring trade. We are now
going to give you bargains in Shoes as you never saw or heard of.
OUR LUCK WILL
for we have just placed on sale our entire purchase at amazingly
low prices. But even this is not all, for in pursuance of our rigidly
enforced business rule ot never carrying goods from season to sea
son to become "shopworn" or "out-of-style," and to close out all
Odds and Ends and regular lines of Shoes that we have decided to
change for others now in process of manufacture for our new spring
stock, we open our annual Clearance Sale of Shoes simultaneously
with our big Assignee's Sale purchase.
These Two Sales Merged Into One
gives the people of Pittsburg and vicinity the greatest opportunity
to buy fine, stylish, solid footwear for positively less money, than the
cost of manufacture. We quote a few specimen bargains, but they
are not a one-hundreth of the great bargains offered:
Ladies' French Kid hand-turned Boots at $4, worth $6.
Ladies' bright Dongola Boots at $2, worth 3.
Ladies' hand-sewed Waukenphast Boots at S3 50, worth S5.
