nor for the organized surveillance

ROUTINE MATTERS
IT CITY COUNCIL
A Considerable Number of
Such Matters Handled by City
Fathers at Meeting Yester
day Afternoon.
A oons'derable number of matters of
.'i routine nature were considered by
city council at its meeting yesterday
afternoon. The following are some of
the matters considered:
'l’he petition of Mr. Kent that a five
a arm box be placed at the corner of
Augusta avenue and South Boundary
was referred to tlie % fire committee with
power to act.
A communication from the local chap
ter of Daugliteis of the American Revo
lut on sought the co-operation of coun
cil in bringing about a safe and sane
iclelvjtion of Christmas. Mrs. Huruin,
the regent, stated that tlie society had
no intention to crowd the season, but
that out of justice to local dealers, they
thought action should be taken one way
< r another before ;he dealers lay in a
su; ply of fireworks. The communioa*
lion was referred to the police commit
tee to lecovt back to the next meeting
of council.
A petition of the Gas Right Company
was red asking permission to cross
Central avenue at Schley street with a
gas main and to run 180 feet west and
280 feet east of where the main crosses
a ong Central avenue either in roadway
<*r place reserved for sidewalk. Before
referring this matter to the streets and
drains committee, several members of
council were heard from regarding the
unsatisfactory manner in which the Gas
Right Company have left streets in the
past, after tearing them up for their
mains. Mayor Hayne stated that Au
gus’a was almost at the mercy of the
(his Light Company in this respect, and
cautioned the committee, before grant
ing permission to them to tear up Cen
iral avenue, to secure the strongest as
surance that the thoroughfare will be left
in as good a condition as it is now. Mr.
I’ilcher suggested that the company be
required to pay a certain sum for the use
of a street, before the dirt is broken,
and money to be used afterwards by the
city in repairing the damage done to the
street. It is very likely that the com
mittee will require the Gas Right Com
pany to enter into a contract similar to
this.
A petition from K. R. Middleton that
a water main be put in at the corner of
Greene and Tubman streets, was re
ferred to the waterworks committee with
power to act.
The petition of property owners in
Summerville Terrace and Summerville
Terrace Annex, asking that street lights
be placed therein, was referred to the
lighting committee with power to act.
The petition f<rt* a light at the inter
section of Cleveland and Murray streets,
was also referred to the lighting com
mittee with power to act.
The petition of K. J. Ryon. asking that
the light on West street near Mount Au
burn he re-located at the intersection
of Weed and Ml. Auburn streets, was
referred to the same committee.
The finance committee reported having
examined and destroyed coupons,
amounting to $1!,523.50.
The accounts committee reported hav
ing examined and ordered paid bills and
payrolls amounting to $89,132.75.
The streets and drains committee rec
ommending that the petition of Miss Sa
rah Stokes, asking privilege to connect
pipes from her property with the city |
sewer on the Wrlghtsbor# road, be
Wranted, was confirmed by council.
