ALL OCT FOB REFORM.
Common Councilmen Make Unprece
dented Uoves, Which
SOME SAY ARE PURELY POLITICAL.
The Finance Committee Gets a Pointer on
Appropriations.
TCOEK OF THE MUNICIPAL LEGISLATES
A most surprising wave of reform ideas
iwept over Coulc'iIs at yesterday's meeting.
In Common it was so noticeable that even
the messengers looked wise at each other
and consulted a calendar to see whether
election day came in one week or two, while
the astonished citizens outside the railing
could scarcely keep qniet The first thun
derbolt came in the shape of the following
resolution, offered by Kobert G. McGonigle,
of the Twenty-first ward:
Resolved, That owing to t ho larce increase
in valuation or property in this ciiy, and in
view or tlie fact that unless the millageis
materially reduced from that of former
years, all tai.es must bo greatly Increased,
thererore.
Resolved, That it is the sense of this Coun
cil that all items in the estimate or the vari
ous departments, not really necessary for
conducting the city government during tho
coming yar, be erased therefrom, and that
the CommitteG on Finance is hereby notified
that unless theappropiiation ordinance is so
framed it -Bill not receive the support of
this Council.
There wasadead silence for a moment
after the reading of the paper, during which
the audience shuffled its feet nervously and
the clock stopped in Mayor Gourley's of
fice. Then the oratorical battle began, and
it didn't end for half an hour.
CallMl It Tolltical Baincombe.
Mr. Magee That resolution is nothing
more orless than political bumcombe. It is
an insult to Councils and it provokes me to
think any member of Councils would father
it. The questions involved can be met
when they come up in the appropriation
ordinance. Councils will then consider
them item by item. It looks as though
Councils were afraid to trust their Finance
Committee.
Mr. McGoni;le The resolution is not for
a political purpose. I do not have to re
sort to such measures. I mean just what
the resolution savs and unless the appro-
firiation ordinance is framed as that paper
ntends I will not support it. It seems
strange that whenever a good resolution is
presented the pentlcman from the Four
teenth ward cries "political scheme." I
dou't care what he says. The people are
howling against excessive taxation and we
must do something.
Mr. Ferguson This is a gentle reminder
to the Finance Committee that it must be
careful.
Mr. O'Donnell I am opposed to the res
olution, because I believe it is simply a
political ruse. Election's coming, you know.
Ye can cut down the appropriations our
selves when the ordinance comes to us and
that will be the time to act
Mr. McGonigle I offered the resolution
partly to see how the members stand. I
know Mr. Magee will cry "political bun
combe" and it would hurt Mr. O'Donnell's
feelings, as he was supposed to be the only
reformer of Councils.
Mr. Bigham The sentiment of the reso
lution is all right, but it is of no use.
Tasted in feplte of Objections.
After a little more like the above the mo
tion was put and th; resolution was adopted
bv a vote of 19 to 15.
By this time the spectators were prepared
for anything, and Mr. McEldowney was al
lowed'to present his reform measure with
out any great excitement. His was a
resolution that the Board of Assessors be
requested to revise its valuation all over
the city.
Mr. McEldowney There is no doubt in
my mind that the valuations are entirely
too high and should be cut down.
Mr. Flinn There is no use passing such
a resolution, as the Assessors will treat it
the same as they did the citizens of the
Twenty-eighth ward by saying: "We have
made the assessments, and "if vou don't like
it we can't help it Go to court"
Mr. O'Donnell A good wav to decrease
the taxation would be to cut down the esti
mates of the different departments.
Mr. Magee read a communication from
the Board of Assessors, stating that they
had not yet completed the assessment and
no estimate could be given.
Mr. Macee I wish to v. arn the gentleman
from the Thirteenth ward that he has start
ed on a very dangerous course. The law,
and not Councils, gives the assessors power
to act, and the burden of responsibility rests
on those assessors. Councils have no right
to dictate as to the course they shall jpursue
in fixing valuations, and I protest against
this resolution. If the assessment is not
what it should be, the courts are open for
appeals.
This One Is Defeated.
Mr. McEldowney The gentleman must
understand that the resolution does not di
rect, but simply requeits, a revision of the
assessments.
When the vote was taken the resolution
wa lost by 21 to 11.
Just then Mayor Gouiley, who had been
sitting in the Council Chamber half an
uoiir, got uj ana uaicea out. "it is sur
prising," said he, "how many great leaders
of reform spring up about this time of
year."
Another case in which some wicked sland
erer said the election may have proved a
potent factor, was an ordinance designating
thelrind of sidewalks to be laid in the city
limits. It has been printed before.
Mr. McGonnigle I am in favor of laying
it over, as it affects chiefly the people of the
East End, and I want timto consider it.
Mr. Bigham The ordinance should he
passed now. There is no law at present to
compel people to lay sidewalks.
Mr. Flinn lam opposed to the ordinance,
because it gives the Chief of the Depart
ment of Public "Works entirely too much
power. The propertv owners shonld have
some say as to what kind of sidewalks are to
be laid.
On motion the ordinance was laid over
with the express understanding that it is
pot to be considered till the second meeting
in February. In the meantime, the election.
XobodV will have to register his vote on
the Auditing Committee ordinance, either,
before election. Mr. O'Donnell made his
second effort yesterday to have the usual
custom of suspending'the rnles for its final
passage, agreed to, but this was denied him
by a vote of 19 to 15, just the same as that
cast on the appropriation resolution. The
ordinance passed second reading, but was
not allowed to go further.
To rrepare for tho World's Fair.
In Select a communication was read from
the Mayor in which he said: "Permit me,
very respectfully, to suggest the appoint
ment, by your honorable bodies, of a joint
committee which shall be authorized to
confer with the manufacturers of our city
regarding the measures necessary to secure
for Pittsburg appropriate and creditable
representation at the World's Fair in Chi
cago." A motion that a committee of two
from Select and three from Common was
agreed to by both branches.

Tublic Works, in reply to a resolution re
questing him to state by what authority the
Central District Telephone Company re
moved certain lamp posts belonging to the
city. Chief Bigelow states that the tele
phone company has only removed two posts
in the last four years, but that there are
about 4,000 lamp posts in the citv going to
destruction that could be utilized in making
extensions in the rural districts.
