Mayor Opposes Paving. Mayor Mueller has decided that he will not sign the resolutions for new paving which were passed Wednesday night an tO he had found out the condition of the paving fund. He will refuse to sign the resolutions if It is found that it will be necessary to certificate the cost of the intersections and the ex cess. "I am not favorable to this plan this year," stated the mayor, "as it in creases the Coating debt of the city when there is no immediate need of it. If the paving is badly needed it would be a different matter, but with this city having almost double the amount of paving of any other city of its slxe in the etate, I can't see the need of running into debt for new paving. Under the certificate plan we have to arrange for the payment each year to retire the certificates which come due, and this cuts the appropriation down at a frightful rate, if the figures which have been shown me are correct." A careful investigation of the needs of the paving and the condition of the fund will be made by his honor before he does anything with the resolutions Wife Makes Serious Charges.
