WHAT THE MUXICIPAL ASSEMBLY PROPOSES.
Bills Introduced in both branches of the Municipal Assembly yesterday s
propose an Issue tif $11.'.W0 in bends to meet the cost of various public 4
imr'rovement". including; the construction of a municipal free briiRe. for s
whlrh C & is specified. The administration's measure, already before the s

Mayer Well, yesterday replied to the
criticisms which advocates of the muni
cipal free bridge have tmde. regarding his
failure to Include that Improvement In
the list of public works covered by the
ordinance which he transmitted to the
City Council last Friday, with his recom
mendation for Its passage.
Mr. Wells declared that he believed the
criticisms of his cajirse were due. pri
marily, to a misapprehension cf the facts.
Pile said his omission of a fecomtncndatlon
for a munlclpi! free bridge wasj not be
cruse of hostility to the enterprise, but
because of bis belief thit the initiative
must be takn by the legislative depart
ment of the city gUTcrnment.
"I am neither for nor against a municip
al frte brldcc."sald the Mayor. "I simply
must be Vhown.' Thus far. I am whol
ly uninformed regarding the desirability
of such n bridge or the means of building
it. 1 don't know whether it would cost
jyOAW. or JT..flnn.ono to build It. or whether
it wculd take SW or IM.OOft to maintain It.
"When th- President of the B-iarJ of
Public Improvements, the Compt-oltcr.
the City Counselor and myself were pre
paring the ordinance Introduced in th
Counril. last week. It was suggested that,
as there was a public clamor for a free
brldse. we should Include that improve
ment with the others. I oppo-ed that action
because I felt that. If there, was need fcr
a bridge, the Municipal Assembly, and not
the txecutlve department, should take the
necessary steps to buiSd or acquire one.

DISCUSS THE BOND ISSUE.

s
Slmtiltan-ouly with the introduction of
bills last night In both braache-i of the
Municifa! Assembly provldlns for a bond
!: of JlI.OOC.iWO for public improvements
end particularly for the construction of a
freo bridge aeross the Mississippi niver. a
meeting was heH by the Joint committee
of the Affiliated Business M-n's Associa
tions, at which the new bill was Indorsed,
but the orsanlat!or.r did net vote tn de
fat the bond Issue. In the event that tae
bill was defeated In the Municipal As
sembly At a meeting of business men held In
the offices of the 8t. Louis Manufacturer'
Association yesterday afternoon a resolu
tion was passed opposing any bond Is
sue which failed to provide for n munici
pal bridge across the Mississippi Itlver.
While the vast majority of those whs
attended last night's meeting were In fa
vor of the bridge. It was deemed unwise
to take action on the subject of "no bridge,
no bonds" until the matter had been re
ferred to the respective associations.
Cha'rman Charles F. syelmM of the Joint
committee c the Affiliated Business Men's
Associations v.aa heartily In favor of put
ting It up to thoe !n favor of the bind Is
sue for the improvement of public build
ings to include the brUge appropriation.
He declared that If they refused to sup
port the bridge movement the bonds
should be defeated.
Taylor Sllth. representing the Cnronde
!t Buslnesa Men's Associations, declared
let Business Men's Association, declared
erection of a bridge across the Mississippi
Itlver. inasmuch as the Illinois General
Aiembly had njt granted the privilege to
build th- bridge ar.d approaches on the
III ncls side of the river, and for the ad
ditional reason that no charter for the
bridge had bien secured from the United
States Goiernment.
John T. Nolde of the Tenth Ward Im
provement Asoclaticn ar.tiw.-ied that. In
asmuch as a bridge had been built at
Thilies and proved of such great benefit to
the State of Illinois, but Utile opposition
would be shown igalnst the present bill
