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.
