A large volume of business occupied the attention of the council last nigbt. Tbe contract for paving the alley at tbe South side fire station was awarded to W. W. Atkins for 1.75, a square yatd. A communication-was received from the Fire Underwriters' Association in regard to needed fire protection and additional' water supply.

The electric light bills came in for their regular discussion and Mr. Silas Porter, on behalf of tbe taxpayers, made a strong plea to have tbe bills deferred until proper tests of tbe volume of light furnished could be made. Some time ago Mr. Porter, for tbe taxpayers, presented a petltition of about a hundred names asking tbe council to investigate the light matter to determine if the light company were living up to their contract. It was claimed by the light company that this was a scheme on the part of foreign corporations to bang up tbe bills of tbe company and by so doing gain an advantage of them.

Tbe 'bills in question were for light furnished during July, August and September. The committee reported favorably on the bills for August and September andjhey were allowed. The bill for July was deferred for tbe reason that tests made by the city, showed the light furnished to be about 17 per cent below tbe contract. Simpson, Qilbert and Mendenball objected to tbe allowance of bills. A large number of other bills were allowed including the monthly pay rolls.
