bate, the opponents of the appropriation of :

prohibits expenditures by departments ‘

. ■ The Committee on Finance also presented
a report in reference to the claim of City
Commissioner Major David P. Weaver for
the fees, of his office during the time John
Given occupied it The report was as fol
lows:
Xho Committee ©n Finance, to whom was
deterred the petition of David P. Weaver
praying that an appropriation be made for
the payment of the salary of the office of
City Commissioner for the term embraced
between the fiist day of January, 1886,'aria
the twenty-first day of August, 1866, the pe
riod of time for which he was unjustly de
prived of performing the duties of the said
ounce, to which he had been legally elected
m October, 1865, as set forth in the said peti
tion, which prays that the said salary be paid
to him, report: That they have given the
matter a careful consideration, and are una
,ble to see any ground upon which the peti
tioner can claim the said office for and dur
.isgtheperiodoftime named, as, by his own
statement, ne was not qualified for the per
formance of its appurtenant duties until the
21st of August last, and, therefore, could not
do anygcfctberein, or render any service to
the city.
As to the legal liability of the city to pay '
this claim, the committee, have annexed the
opinion of the City- Solicitor to their report '
having felt it to be their duty to submit that :
him, by which, it aDpears that ‘
the petitioner is not legally entitled' to-the'
salary of a City Commissioner for the. pe-,
riod named petition. -The i
committee, therefore, report adversely to i
the’granting of the (petition, regretting l
who legally to the office:
should be deprived for any'period'of the.!
term from enjoying the fees and emoluments!
thereof. _ (
Thecommittee also offered aresolution dis- 1

The City Solicitor’s opinion was:
Law Department, 212 South Fifth street -
October 12th, 1866.— Joseph Marcer JSsn " i
Chairman?/ the Finance (Jommittee.—l We :
duly considered the questions presented in
the petition of David F. Weaver to Councils
referred to the Committee on Finance and
by the Committee submitted to me for mr
opinion thereon.
OpPri being advised of the reference of
this petition to myself, I addressed' the
counsel of the petitioner and of Mr. John
Given, requesting to be favored with anv
points or authorities bearing upon the
questions presented by the petition which :
-they, They !
have not responded to this request anal!
P a J e , therefore been, compelled to consider!
and pass.upon the! petition uriaided'by the!
of thej eminent counsel who ie-!
P r ff ent the parties in interest.
E®tition informs Councils'
mat he was elected to; theoffice of Citv Com
missioner October 10 th, 1865. That afZ!
and fraudulent return in favor of his oddo- ;
Sl nt jT a j- mpoS6d a P°n the retmcmfudX !
wad overcome.' That ;
Ous led to|a contest which resffitedina .'
fxewised legally paid office Bince ,
1,1866. That the salary has not been paid
by the city to any one for the period be
tween January Ist, 1866 1 andAugust2lat,
1866. That the petitioner was’compelled,
in assisting to expose said . fraudulent re
turn, and haying the samdf judicially' set
aside, to expend ■ large amounts of money,;
besides, being, deprived -of.the . pay and
emoluments of .said office, which he alleges;
justly belonged to. him, and .he therefore i
prays Councils to make an appropriation
directing the payment to him of the salary !
ol said office for the term embraced between;
January 1,1866,-and August 21,1866. 1
The question thus presented is not whether:
Mr. Weaver has any claim upon Mr. Given,'
nor whether Mr. Givenhas any claim upon
the City " but whether the City owes Mr. ■
Weaver a salary as City Commissioner for
a term of seven months and twenty-one '•
days, during all of which time he was con
fessedly not discharging the duties of the i
office, and was not even qualified to do So,
- Mr. Weaver did not offer to give bond;
did not submit the names of his sureties“to :
Councils: did not—as I read his petition— ‘
duly qualify himself for the duties of said !
office until August 21,1866. -
Di; the contested elections of Mann vs. ’
rCassidy: and. Thompson-vs. E wing; the duly
elected officers received, none of the emolu- j
ments of the offices pending the contest,
and I am not aware of any precedent for the;
present daim. !
From the silence of the petitioner’s coun- :
sel I have'the right to infer that their, indos- I
try has been unableto discover ‘any case i
supporting the petition, and ! ‘l am, for all!
these reasons/ oompelled to advise the com- :
mittee that bp reported, bask to!
Councils! with an adverse recommendation, i
The true remedy'for such cases would be i
the . passage of a few • impounding ali the l
fees of an office during a contest. The in
cumbent ;would then ; share the confestant’e
anxiety to speed the 'cause, and np man
could then profit by the fraud of. himself or
thfe friends. lam very respectfully yours,
v:.‘ '! F. CAEEOiIiHrEWSTEB,
■ City Solicitor.' l
.. . A minority report, presented by Mr. Dil
lon, was read, as follows:
The undersigned, .mepabers of the Com
mittee on Finance; Vo 1 which was referred
the petition of David F, Weaver, City Com
missioner, for an f Appropriation directing
the payment to him ofthe Salary of said of- ‘
flee, for the term embraced betwesn the Ist
day of January7lB667And the 21st day of
August; TS66, feg leave respectfully to offer
thafollowing minority report; and they re;
quest that "whilst 1 in this petition Major
Weaver urgesthejiwh'eeof ms cliim.he no
where asserts it aka legal right It is sim
ply an appeal to the municipal conscience
and sense of as suoh,-the under
signed are convinced it is an appeal that
cannot with justice be disregarded, and aB
the petition raised no legal qnestion, the re
ference ofit by the Committee to the City
Solicitor was, in the opinion of the under
signed; quite unnecessary; and that officer,
properly regarding the matter only in a
technical aspect reported adversely to the
petition.
however, Major Weaver, instead of as
serting merely s moral right, had been pur
suing a legal claim, therewould have been
no necessity of resorting to this method of
prosecuting. Instead of a petition to Coun
cils, be might have, in that case, made a de
mand through the court. The undersigned,
however, believe that the petition ought to
be granted upon the ground of jnstlMvand
public policy. Major Weaver spent all the
period covered by his petition in the virtual
service of the public, besides expending his
private means to an amount probably not
for short of the allowance he asks. It is no
answer to this to say that he had a private
interest in the controversy, for to the mind
of every good citizen and patriot, as well as
in the eye of every law, the investigation
purstiedso laboriously, indefatigably and
conscientiously by Major Weaver, involved
interests of the whole community that over
shadowed and dwarfed into insignificance
all private considerations.- It was in favor
of law as in feet an issue in which the law
ful voters of this community demanded pro
tection-Against the most flagrant and
shameful frauds, whereby the most em
phatic verdict of the people irrespective of
party, was set aside. Such frands, if once
accorded impunity, would, without doubt,
subvert all good government and public
virtue in our community. .
For the community’s good, therefore, no
less than his own interest, Major Weaver
pursued to success a contest rendered une
qual by the feet that the incumbent’s fraud
ulent certificate enabled him to receive fees
and perquisites of the office fer exceeding
in amount the regular salary. These fees
and perquisites Major Weaver can never
receive baok, and these are analogous to the
emoluments in Mann vs. Cassidy and in
Thompson vs. Ewing, cited by the City So
licitor. Bat the city has never paid to any
one the salary covered by Major,'Weaver’s
petition; ana, after paying that to Major
Weaver, the city will be in no worse con
dition than it would have been if he had
not, in violation of the rights and to the
gross scandal of the whole community,been
prevented from entering upon his office
when, as the Court has solemnly adjudged
it was his right to en ter upon it. The an-’
dersigned do not believe that the city de
sires to make a profit from bad men’s
frauds, and Major Weaver’s misfortune,
as the victim of those frauds, and, there
fore, recommend the appropriation he asks.
For that purpose they they recommend the
passage of the following resolution:
Eesolved, That the City Commissioners
be directed-and. authorized to draw a war
rant in fevor of David P. Weaver, for the
sum of one . thousand two hundred and i
sixty-five dollars and eight cents ($1,265 OS), 1
being the amount of his . salary from Janu- I
ary 1,1866, to . August 21, 1860, and the
City Controller is directed and authorized !
to countersign said warrant. ■ i
The majority report was signed by Mr.
Marcer, Chairman; and Messrs. Cattell,
Pollock and Freeman, of Select Council,and
Measrs-Fox, Harper, Harrison and Fran
ciscus, of Common Council.
The minority was indorsed by Mr. Samuel
G; King, of Select Council, and Mr. Dillon
of Common Council. 1
Mr. Marcer moved that the resolution at
tached to the majority report, discharging
the Committee from the farther considera
tion of the.subject, be adopted.
Mr. Hetzell moved to amend that the 1 re
solution attached to the miriority report be
adopted. Not agreed to.,
Mr. Hancock contended that Councils
ought to pay Major Weaver. The voters of
the oity had elected that gentleman by a
large majority, and it was the duty of Coun
cils to give tone to the acts of the people and
encourage the right He said if Councils
encouraged fraud by refusing to pay this
bill, tricks would be again resorted to to de
feat a properly elected officer,
Messrs. Dillon and Hetzell advocated the
passage of the minority resolution.
The resolution of the majority of the Com
m“tee was adopted—yeas 27, nays 9.

THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN.—PHILADELPHIA. FRIDAY.QCTOBEft 19 1866
of April, 1867. After a long discussion, the
.ordinance was adopted.
. Mr. Harper submitted the*following reso
lution: -
Preamble and Besoluiidri of Instruction
to the Committee-on Girard Estate.
Whereas, It being -known that the Com
mittee on Girard ’Estate have authorized a
lease to be made of the Enquirer building,
for the sum of four, thousand dollars per
annum; and
Whereas, It Is also known that six thou
sand dollars or moreiier annum was offered
for the same building j by responsible par
ties; therefore,
Eesolved , By the Select and Common
Councils of the, city of Philadelphia, That
the Committee on Girard Estate be and
they are hereby directed to revoke their ac
tioh. so far as relates tothe lease for four
thousand dollars, and offer the 'property by
advertisement in the usual form.
Mr. Fox hoped thb resolution would not
pass. He was a member of the Committee
onGirard Estates,.and voted for giving the
lease,-believing it 1 to be right and proper.
This parties who obtained the lease had ex
pended $B,OOO upon the property, and now
famish poorer ,to. other tenants, He said
that if this, steam power were' cut off, it
would reduce the rent. He did not believe
the committee would make any change.
He, for one, would not.
Mr. Harper did not cal).-in question' the
integrity of tab committee, but he did call
in question.their j adgment, in taking $4,000,
when a# Offer pfjfe.OOOiher annurn was
offered. As to the power, he would like to
know if the renters, paid the Girard estate
or an individual?/, x iA;: A. , : 'T
Mr. Fox replied that the power was fur
nished at cost foy. the party, oeoupying! the
building on Chestnut street. - -*• " >
Mr. Harper Btated that aside from this
qnestion the Girard'eetate would lose $2,000
a year, or $lO,OOO at the end of the lease.
This money is wanted for, the education of
orphans at Qimtd'College; and yet the gen
tleman (Mr. Fox) thinks this but a small
matter. Bents have gone up,.all over the
city, andthe Girard estate should have all
the benefits that a private individual would
get from She increase in rents;- Councils
have the power and should instruct the
oommittee to revoke their' action! ' ' '
Mr. Simpson said the Committee had been
moved but by one Idea; and was to get
all the money they could for the estate.
They were satisfied that the offer of $6,000
was made from hostile feelings to the pre
sent tenant, And not because it was worth
the money. He said that the tedanla in
other -buddings- belonging- to-the-Girard
unlesS power wps InrWheiLthemA The
ofibr of $6,000 was examined into,-and, 1 if
accepted, it was thought by the Committee
that the interests of the-other tenants would
be jeopardized.
At this stageof the proceedings, the call
of the house was asked for, and only 21
members answered. No quorum.
Mr. Martin moved to adjourn, upon which
the yeas and nayß were token,as follows—
yeas 12, nays 14; A quorum answering.
Mr. Krupp said the matter before the
Chamber was an Important one. He said
we were sent here to attend to the interests
of the city, and not other people’s business
He would like to know where a man could
foe found that would take $4,000 for a house
when he could get l $6,000. No one but a
crazy man would do so.
Mr. Stanton, one of the Committee on the
Girard Estate, said he had voted for the
$4,C00; because of the expenditure made by
the present tenant and the furnishing of
power to other tenants. He said it was a
fair business transaction, andhe acted as he
would have done for himself. :
Mr. Dillon was glad that the matter had
come before Connells,’ and he would ask
why the buildings 134 and 136 South Third
street were tented for $1,500, when parties
were offering over $3,000. ’ P
Mr. Simpson said the lease .was not up.
When.it was the rent would be increased.
Mr. Stokley said he had known the Com
mittee on Gir£rd Estates to refuse to rent the
buildings in Girard row, Chestnut street,
unless they were to bo altered into stores,
and after this rented one of them for five
years for $1,200, when $1,600 had been of
fered. He sald it was due to the orphans of
Girard College that $B,OOO should be ob
tained for the building hear Third street
He believed it could be obtained. - •
Mr. Krupp moved to postpone for the pre
sent.
Mr. Harper was sorry that there should
have been any angry discussion. He was
satisfied that the Committee would find that
they had committed ah error of judgment.
He would askif the present tenant did not
offer $6,000 for the building.
Mr. Fox replied that he (the tenant) said
he was at the mercy of the Committee, and
if they demanded the $6,000, he wonid have
to pay it. -.. , -
Sr, Harder—Then the present tenant did
offer s6,eoo,and therefore the Committee did
wrong.
Mr. Billington said the simple question
was, “Is the building worth $6,000?” He
had not heard any good reason why the es
tate Bhould lose §2,000 a year upon this pro
perty. He believed §6,000 not a fair price
: or the building, as it was worth more than
that amount. He thought it out of place
to charge motives upon any one:
- The vote to postpone resulted as follows:
Yeas 14—nays 6. No quorum answering,
the Chamber adjourned. ■ .

WELL <fc CO.’S PATEHT GLASS CASTOB
WHaEIa
These wheels ate designed for Pianos, Bedsteads, Ac,
We claim that they give to Pianos a greatly increased
force ofeoond. without detracting from the harmony
and melody of the instrument, rendering every note
more distinct to the ear. This la so apparent that they
are now being applied by many to these valuable mu
sical instruments. Dr. valentine Mott, previous to his
Qeath. pronounced the Glass Castor wheels an in
valuable invention for bedfast invalids, who are
guarded against the damp doors after undergoing the
process of cleaning, or where dampness Is produced
from any other cause. Aside from this. Housekeepers
are relieved from the dread of having their carpets cut
or torn, as frequently happens from those now in use,
often caused by a* rusty Which adheres with glue*like
tenacity. No such annoyance can possibly proceed
ITom the Glass Castor wheels, as we all know that •
glass is non-corrosive. There are no rough or uiton*
{shed edges to the Glass Wheels, such as we often find
in those of Iron, and'the latter, though smoothly
ished, will soon rust, from the dampness of the atmos
phere, if nothing else, producing roughness on thesun
fhce, or edge, while the former will always maintain
thesmootbnewofglass.just as they areflnished.: .
By sleeping uppn gloss wheels yon retain all the elec*
tricity you had to your body on retiring, and you get
up in the morning feeling as-fresh and active as a
young man. Glass beingt a non-conductor, the 1 elec
tricity gained while in bed cannot pass offi- Ask yon*
doctor what he thinks of the Glass Cas tor Wheels*
Ask him if all diseases, with the exception of* chronic
diseases, are not caused from the want of electricity*
We have a man in our the doctors pro
nounced past curing, with the Inflammatory rheu
matism. The wheels cured him in less thau fbur .
weeks. He is to-day a stout healthy.man. These are v
facts which can be proven on application at our office.
