MAYOR DEFINES HIS ASPHALT POSITION EXPLAINS CONNECTEDLY HIS COURSE THUS FAR. Wns Willing to Sink Hla Personal Aversion to Taking the Respons ibility for the Contract if Councils by n Two-Thirds Voto Indlcatod That It Would, or at Least Could, Set at Naught the Executive's Power of Interference in Legisla tion His Present Stand. Mayor Molr will not accept Thuis day night's vote on tho appropriation ordinance as an equivalent to direc tions from council that he sign the Uarber contract. "When I called the Joint session of councils two weeks ago to specially con sider the matter ot usphalt repairs, It was my intention to sign the contract If the councils indicated by a two-third vote that they favored It. There Is a clause In tho ordinance, under which the contract was made, directing tho mayor to execute tho contract. That behest was followed out by Mayor Bailey. There Is nothing before me directing that I shall execute a con tract. The clause In tho ordinance In question was directed to Mayor Bailey. "However, had councils given a two thirds vote to the resolution requesting that I execute a contract I would havo accepted that as sufficient w rant for me to proceed as requested It would have set at naught the quasi legisla tive power reposed In the mayor, be cause a two-thirds voto overcomes Iris veto nnd rules him out of legislation. It would have given me ground to war rant tho assumption that whatever legislative Interference I might Inter pose would be overruled and this being the case, I would be shorn of all ex cept the mlnlstetial power of the ex ecutive nnd relieved of all lesponslbll- Ity. NOT A FAIR HXPRCSSION. "Mr. Chittenden was satisfied that the vote on that night was not a fnir expression of tho senso of the select council and proposed that another test bo made when the Sanderson appro priation ordinance would be up on sec ond reading. I did not agree to be bound by it, as before, owing to the inpldly Increasing public sentiment against the Barber contract, nnd some other considerations, but told Mr. Chit tenden that an expression favorable to the contract would have Its due In fluence with me. "Again the two-thirds vote was wanting. I wns present when It was being taken and learned fiom an au thoritative source that more than one of the members who voted In the af firmative were not In favor of the con tract. They wanted to tnko the $17, r.20 out of the genetal city fund to save It from being attached by holders of Judgments against the city or coun ullmen who might be tempted to say 'to the devil with the asphalt repairs.' and form a combine to spend tho money for culverts, electric lights or the dozen and one other things that 'waid' councllmen are always teady to foster 'I will not again commit myself to any paitlcular lino of action. As to the contract now before me, I will only suy I do not now see how I can sign It, ee;i though I favored It. I be lieve, ns Mr. Torrey says, that the pre sent mayor has nothing whatever to do with tho executing of a contract w ith tho Barber company. LET TIIHM provi: RIGHT. "If the Uarber company has a con tract, as Is alleged, they have only to await the passage of tho Sanderson nppioprlatlon ordinance to begin work. If, as tho company claims, the con tract has been lost, the ex-mayor stands ready, according to his Inter view today, to prove their right to a contract. "Let them go Into court and prove thid right to a contiact, and when the order comes from court directing the proper city officials to execute a dupli cate contract, I will be found awaiting, pen In hand, to do my share of the tSfll." NO INVESTIGATION. No One Appeared Against Principal Cruttendeu. The teaclieis' committee of the board of control assembled last night to hear and pass upon the complaint of Mrs. M. Flynn, of the West Side, that Piln clpul Cruttenden, of No. 16 school, used unnecessary foice in chastising her 14-year-old daughter. Mr. Cruttenden was present at the appointed hour, but no one appeared to press the charges, and the commit tee decided to drop the matter. Secretary Fellows Infoimed the com mittee that Mis, Flynn waited upon him in the afternoon ami infoimed him that jhe did not wish to prosecute till!
