MONUMENT IS UNVEILED.
Wind Tore Away Its Covering and
Left It Exposed.
Old Dorcas thought to ave the vet
erans tho trouble of unveiling the new
soldiers' and sailors' monument, Just
completed. The flags with which the
shaft and the statue surmounting it
were enveloped were not securely Tast
ent'd and yesterday, when the wind was
tearing u round at a high old rate. It
took a tear at the monument veiling
and by noontime hud It fairly well de
nuded. It was nil very kind on the part of
Ills Wlndshln, but the kindness will
hardly be appreciated 'by the vets.
They propose to do the unveiling them
selves, nnd when the wind nliittos will
set about having the monument re
covered. Ah the derrick and scaffolding have
been tuken down, lecnurse will prob
ably be had to the Hook and Ladder
company, or to the Wlllluni Connell
Hose company's life-saving corps,
which can mount the shaft by shoot
ing a line across the cnpltol and draw
lug up a rope,
WHAT THE LAW SAYS
ABOUT THE MATTER
Apparently No Weight to the Con
tention of Day & Company That
the Election Was Illegal.
A liitmb'cr of the u-presentat.vi
members of both branches of council
will meet this afternoon with Citv
Solicitor Vosburg for the purpose of
deciding on some cause of action to
be followed In dealing with the eniorp
ency caused by the refusal of 11. L.
Day nnd company to accept the $271.
000 Issue of sewer bondf.
A Tribune reporter was shown yes
terday afternoon the section of the
act of ISI'1 governing elections for tin.
increase of the indebtedness of munici
palities which it. L. Day and company
claim the city bus not lived up to.
It reads as follows:
Siidi eloulioii i-IkiII bo held .it Iho pku 0, lime
and miiltr llio "aiue li-gulatinni as piiuidtd hv
law for the holding of Ui1111l1ip.il elections, and
II shall bo the duty of the iuspeclois .mil
judirei of .such elections to leiehe tickets, either
written 01 pilnted. I10111 eloclnis qualified uniltt
Iho (Oiistltutiou of this state to ole in such
distiict, labelled oil tho outside "im lease tho
debt" ind (onlniiiiiig in the inside the (voids
'no iiiui.a-'C of debt" or "debt, may be in
treased." also biirfly the- pmpose and amount
of iucicase and to deposit said tiikels ill a
hot piothled for tint pnipose, as Is ptotlik-d
by law- In itiraid to olhei- llikels tcu'Iird at
Mid election.
It. L. Day & Co. Hist contend that
the above section contemplates separ
ate and distinct ballots for the author
ization of an incieast' of indebtedness.
They then contend that, leaving tills
out of the question, tbe words "in
crease of debt" did not appear on the
outside of the- ballots used.
The words "no Increase of debt" and
"debt maybe Increased" appealed on
the regulation Buker ballot used at tho
election, and it Is true that the words
"increase of debt" did not appear on
the outside of the ballot, but it Is not
believed thai this amounts to very
much. It is understood that City Solic
itor Vosburg contends that the law
does not contemplate an extra ballot.
Tbe next objection raised by the com
pany is that there should have been
additional and separate ballot boxes
and that the special ballots should
have been deposited in these. They
construe the last few lines of Hie sec- 1
lion to mean this, but a fateful lead
ing of these fow lines will roveal the
fact that they arc exceedingly ambigu
ous and might mean that a special bal
lot box Is lequlred or that the ballots
were to be deposited In the regulation
ballot box.
The issue of .',"iO,t)no worth of bildge
bonds was authorized in ISM ifi pre
cisely the same manner as Hie present
Issue, the election being conducted ex
actly tbe same way.
City Solicitor Vosburg is inclined to
believe that sevcial of the other orig
inal biddeis will be perfectly willing lo
take Hie bonds, and is hopeful of re
ceiving favorable, 1 espouses from them
before next Tlunsday night.

A lovely, brisk gale war blowing in
the city all day long, tne lowest rate
at which it moved the atmosphere
along being twenty-four miles an
