    The regular meeting was held yesterday
afternoon.
SELECT BRANCH.
A note was received from the Board of
Health relative to a nuisance at the foot of
Deal and Memphis streets. The Highway
Department having been notified, returned
the communication, expressing their ina
bility to abate it. Referred to the Commit
tee on Highways.
A communication was received from G.
F. Gordon, Inspector of Streets. The Chair
announced it to be a very voluminous docu
ment.,
Mr. Bumm requested its reading, inas
much as he had offered a resolution of in
quiry why the Eighteenth. and Nineteenth
Wards have not been visited byr the public
scavengers.
The communication was read. Mr. Gor
don admits the justice of the complaints.
Be , says that over two: hundred . written
complaints have been received, and that the
contractors for the district named havesadly
neglected their business. Many complaints
referred to the Board of Health have been
returned "attended-to," when not a thing
has been done concerning them. Upper
- Delaware avenue has been touched bat once
in two months, and in the Wards named
one hundred and four streets have not yet
been touched by the -present contractors.
The writer says that despite the covert at
tacks of interested parties he shall continue
to perform his duty, reliant upon the confi
' dence of his fellow-citizens and the support
of His Honor the Mayor. •
Mr. Van Cleve said that the entire tenor
and purport of this communication should
receive the condemnation of City Councils.
This official seems to have only ofte
' lion, and, that was to annul and break these
contracts. His whole communication is a
tissue of falsehoods from beginning to end.
He had no sooner been the recipient of the
appointment than he openly stated that he
would break up the contractor for the
northern district. There were no com
plaints from the southern district, yet it
was even in a worse condition than the
'northern district. There is ample' reason
why these contractors cannot now enter
into the spirit and letter of the contract they
- have taken. They require a little time to
get their dumping places. The speaker
knew that the Mayor did not indorse Gor
don's communication. He knew that the
Mayor had told Cordon that reasonable
time must be given to the contractors to
do their work. Instead of aiding them he
has continually annoyed them, and unless
he desists the speaker would at an early
day move for the abrogation of his office.
Mr. Gray expressed the belief that this
• was a very unusual and captious attack
upon a city official, whom he believed to be
correct in all his statements. As compared
with the upper district the southern section
of the city is in good condition, and the
speaker believed that the Mayor is sick at
heart that he ever gave the contract to the
parties who now hold it.
Mr. Bumnt said that he had introduced
the resolution because in some parts of his
own and the Nineteenth Wards the dirt was
two feet deep; complaints were coming in
to him at a rate so annoyingly that he
- would have been false to his duty as a rep
resentative had he not introduced the reso
lution. Since then, however, the contrac
tors had been at work in the districts cora
. plained of,and the streets had beencleaused.
Mr. Van Cleve said thataninjunction had
• prevented the contractor-from working for
three weeks, and at the time of the resolu
tion he had not yet reached the district com
plained of.
The subject was ultimately referred to
the Mayor.
An ordinance paying Thomas Robertson
remuneration for injuries received, as pre
-viensly reported, was adopted.
Mr. Wagner, Committee on Law, pre
sented bills to divide the Twenty-fourth and
Twenty-seventh Wards lute election divis
ions, which were passed.
Mr. Pollock, of the Committee on Health,
made a report relative to the alleged empty
ing of the contents of cesspools in the streets
by certain parties. After close investigation
they find the charges to be true, and recom
mend prosecution of the guilty parties.
This was adopted.
Mr. Pollock also presented a report from
the Committee on Health, providing that
all small-pox subjects in the county prison
and other public institutions shall be placed
in the municipal hospital. Adopted.
The bill making appropriation to repair
certain station houses was concurred in.
-- Mr. Barlow moved the discharge of the
Investigating Committee of the Gas Trost
from further consideration of the resolution
to request the opinion of the City Solicitor
in regard to the power of the committee of
investigation:to compel the attendance of
witnesses.
, Col. Page objected. For the present, at
t least, the resolution should remain with the
committee.
The motion to discharge was agreed to
The resolution then came before the Chain
ber.
Mr. Barlow took exception to the conduct
of Col. Page, chairman of the committee,
while acting upon the committee, as over
bearing, and giving the opinion that the
committee had no authority for their work.
Mr. Page said he was very glad to know
how Mr. Barlow stood. No gentletnan
would insult him (Col.Page);no blackguarda
can do so. He was glad to see where Mr.
Barlow stood. He had done every thing to
frustrate the objects of the committee and
he was glad that he was the only one of the
committee who justified the individual of
the Twentieth Ward, who acted as Chief
Engineer of the Gas Works, in refusing to
answer the questions of the committee.
Col. Page then wept on in a long speech,
in which he denounced Mr. Manuel for de
fying the authority of the committee and of
Councils, and reprehended the course of
Mr. Barlow in obstructing and embarrass
ing the investigation before the committee.
Pending the discussion of the question
the Chamber adjourned,there being no quo
rum present,
COMMON ERANCH.
A communication was read from the
Board of Health, stating that information
had teen lodged with the Highway De
partment of the filthy condition of the in
tersection of Deal and Memphis streets.
The streets are unpaved, and there is no ap
propriation in the Department to have the
thoroughfares put in proper condition.
Another communication from the same
source called the attention to the highway
at Thirteenth and Reed streets. Stagnant
water has accumulated there, and the mi
asma threatens the health of the vicinity.
The only remedy for the evil suggested by
the Board is a sewer or watercourse along
Reed street to Tenth, which is not yet
opened.
Mr. Miller, Chairman of the Highway
Committee, reported resolutions. To pave
• Otis street, from Richmond street to the
Delaware river. To grade and tramway
Canby and Ristine streets, Eighth Ward.
To repave Trenton avenue from York to
Emeline streets. Also, an ordinance ap
propriating $1,650 to complete the macada
rnising of Green lane, from Frankford plaiik
road to Branchtown. All were passed.
The Police Committee, presented an or
dinance creating a new police district, by
dividing the first and second police districts
and forming a new one, the seventeeth, the
Slation,house at Moyamensing Hall.
This was debated at length and finally
tabled.
The same Committeeialso reported an or
dinance for the purchase , of- a lot of, ground
at Cotton and Main streets, Manayunk.
Mr. Simpson- explaindd that a new sta
onhouse must be erected at Mariayunk.
The old _cm bling down:
built years ago tum by the old borough of
/danaynnk and cost the city nothing.
1
That a new station must be built norone
will deny who has ever pressed an hdur, in
the house.
The matter was poithoned for one week.
At the request of Mr. Griffith, the 'Com:
mittee on Fire was discharged from the
consideration of the ordinance to pay the
Good Will and Fairmount Engine compa
nies the warrants for January and Feb
ruary, during which, months the companies
were suspended.
Mr. Wolbert presented a resolution to se
cure more perfect unanimity in number
ing:houses, and -that all the old numbers
remaining on houses be at once removed.
Agreed to.
Mr. Palmer offered a resolution that as
the Inspector of Streets had advertised that
the citizens mist only place ashes on the
footways of the. treets on certain days, and
as the people generally have placed boxes
on the pavements and the ashes have not
been been removed, that the Chief Inspec
for of Streets be instructed to report
to .Councils the reason of this neglect
and that he be also instructed to have pub
lished three times, in three daily papers,
the contracts for cleaning the streets, that
every citizen may know whether the con
tracts are faithfully kept.
A motion to table fell.
Mr. Harper moved to indefinitely post
pone, in order that the subject may be ven
tilated. Citizens- of certain districts have
placed ashes on footways on days when the
advertisement called for it, and the people
have been compelled to remove the ashes
'themselves.
Mr. Wolbert said the matter belonged to
the Mayor of the city of Philadelphia. The
whole city knows that a bitter malignant
attack has 'been made on the contractors for
the northern district, and the attack is
false. The contractors have had no oppor
tunity. While they have been appointed
for only two months they have been dragged
into ccmmittees, into Councils and into
court. The charges against them are lies,
and the lie should be nailed and traced to
its source.
Mr. Evans said that so far as the Fifteenth
Ward is concerned the contractors have
signally failed to do their duty. In some
of the principal streets the ashes were re
moved, but in the alleys and the little
streets where the people are not clamorous
for redress, the ashes have never been
taken from the boxes where they were first
deposited.
Mr. Fox advocated patience. The north
ern contractors had met unexpected diffi
culties. The ashes they were called upon to
remove, have, in many cases, been the ac
cumulation of four or five months prior to
the date of the contracts.
The motion to indefinitely postpone was
lost—yeas 6, nays 20.
Mr. Evans offered the following substi
tute: To strike out all after the word "re
solved" and to insert "that the Chief In
spector of Street Cleaning be instructed to
inform Councils at their next meeting the
cause of the non-removal of the ashes from
the sidewalks."
Mr. Wolbert moved to strike out the
words'," the Chief Inspector of Street Clean
ing" and to insert " the Mayor."
Mr. Hetzel moved to refer the entire sub
ject to the Committee on Street Cleaning.
Mr. Evans asked why Councils were
afraid to direct the Chief Inspector to report
the cane of the delinquency? The report
of that official can be criticised. It will be
before Councils, and they can review it. If
it is right there will be nothing to conceal,
but if the Inspector finds that the contrac
tors are false to their duty, then the evil
will be apparent, and. Councils can re
move it.
Mr. Wolbert said hewas neither an advo
cate of the . Inspector nor of the contractors.
He was not a friend of either the northern
or southern contractors. He simply asked
that the report should come from the Mayor.
Mr. Fox said that all that Councils ought
to do is to cut off the head of the Chief In
spector of Streets without delay.
Mr. Stokley said the Mayor should have
the case in his hands. The Mayor is the
Court of Appeal in this case. The Chief In
spector has visited the Mayor and then
haunted the Street Cleaners' Committee until
he has disgusted the Committee; and now the
resolution introduced this afternoon has
been brought here for the benefit of the
Chief Inspector. Since Gordon has been in
the department he has been tireless in his
efforts to break down the contractors for the
Northern District.
Mr. Palmer denied being an advocate of
Mr. Gordon, and declared that he never
spoke to the Chief Inspector for one minute,
or to any friend of the Inspector.
The motion to refer to the Mayor passed
unanimously. Yeas 36, nays none.
Mr. Franciscus offered the.following ordi
nance :
LThe Select and Common Councils of the
city of Philadelphia do ordain that the
office of Chief Inspector of Streets, as -con
stituted and organized by and under an or
dinance entitled "An ordinance to ettablish
the Department of Street Cleaning," ap
proved February 15th, 1864, shall be abol
ished, and shall cease and determine from
and after the 30th of May next; and that all
ordinances, or parts of ordinances providing
for the election of Chief Inspector of Streets,
as now established, and under and by virtue
of which the present Chief Inspector of
Streets was elected, be and the same are
hereby repealed.
Mr. Franciscus asked for prompt action.
The Chief Inspector has only made trouble
in any position. In any business situation
he could not remain from daylight till dark.
Mr. Krupp moved to lay the ordinante on
the table. The motion was lost.
YEAs—Messrs. Earnest, Evans, Harper,,
Krupp and Simpson-5.

Excused from voting—Mr. Stokley.
Palme r
Not voting—Messrs. Calhoun, Colehower,
Mr. Harrison moved to refer to the Com
mittee on Street Cleaning. This was lost.
The ordinance passed second reading.
On the third reading the yeas and nays were
the rules
called, an d the Chamber to suspend
to allow the bill refused
to be read a third
time. Adjourned.
Territorial Wagon Roads.
The Secretary of the Interior has directed
the suspension of surveys for certain wagon
roads in the Territories. This has been done
upon the recommendation of E. B. Taylor,
Samuel R. Curtis, A. H. Sibley and Henry
W. Reed, commissioners appointed to treat
with the hostile Indians in the Upper
souri. In their judgment it would be im
politic and dangerous to make any farther
surveys of routes through the country in
habited by the Teton bands of the Sioux
Indians before the negotiation contemplated
with the bands and tribes, as well as those
already consummated,have been fully corn-
Dieted, and the annuities under the latter
fully paid as stipulated. There is no seri
ous doubt on the part of all the savages
heretofore hostile, as to the good faith of the
Government towards them, and it is there
fore highly desirable that. the treaties al
ready made be ratified and the annuities
provided paid to the several bands with the
least practical delay.
