SNYDER MISSED A TRAIN
AND THE HARBOR RESOLUTION OF ONE
WEEK AOO STANDS ON RECORD
The Second Ward Councilman Had Written a
Letter to President Teed for a D.lay In
tka Approval ol tho Minutes, but It Was
Delivered Too Late
The falsetto harbor resolutions
adopted by the city council one week
ago yesterday still stand just as the
Herald predicted they would, despite
the additional meeting held during
the past twenty-four hours.
When the council convened at 9 oclock
yesterday morning, every seat was oc
cupied excepting that of Councilman
M. P. Snyder. The man from the sec
ond ward, as has already been stated,
had gone out of town upon business of
a private character. Before leaving
he left for President Freeman G. Teed
a letter dated Sunday, April 12th, read
ing as follows:
Dear Sir: I have to go to San Bernar
dino and Redlands this evening to
get mM bid irs for supplying the asylum
at Highlands with shoes Will be back
on the 9:45 a. m. train, Monday. 13th.
Please postpone the reading of the min
utes of last Monday's meeting until I
arrive at the council chamber.
By so doing you Will oblige.
Snyder Instructed one of his business
partner! to make no mistake but de
liver the above note to Teed yesterday
morning. The partner states that he
became a bit confused in his dates, as
he thought that the council did not meet
untiy 10 oclock. He delivered his mes
sage at 10:15, and President Teed
marked that time upon the paper upon
its receipt.
The minutes of the previous meeting
had by that time been approved, and
the falsetto harbor incident was thus
closed for good.
An attempt w as made during the af
ternoon session to pass another resolu
tion setting forth that the one of last
week was adopted under a misappre
hension and under snap judgment and
that it did not express the real senti
ments of the council and should never
have gone upon the records. The res
olution could not secure a sponsor, al
though every one of the nine members
of the council were individually ap
proached upon the subject. The
general sentiment about the city hall
is that the indiscreet methods of the
Times is alone responsible for the fact
that the Parker resolution of one week
ago was not yesterday reconsidered.
NO REDRESS.
The city attorney reported as follows:
You have referred to me quite a
number of demands on the general
sewer fund. All of them are for cer
tain sums heretofore paid by the pe
titioners to the general sewer fund
at the rate of 60 cents per front foot
for the right to connect with certain
public sew ers. The majority of these
demands are from parties who In 1885
and 18S6 made connections with what
is know n as the "Orchard tract sewer."
The Orchard tract sewer was built by
the city In 18S5 under resolution No.
339. adopted April 7, ISSS. which pro
vided that the cost of construction of
said sewer should be paid out of the
general sewer fund of the city of l.os
Angeles. All parties who connected
with this sewer were required to pay
60 cents per front foot into the gen
eral sewer fund to reimburse said fund
for the cost of construction. The de
mands of Rutterfleld. Howard, Whitta
ker. Burns, Hall. Boynton and Len
nox, are for the sums paid by said par
ties or their grantors for the right to
connect with said Orchard tract sew
er. They now ask for the return of
said sums for the reason that they
have been assessed by the new sewer
district and are compelled to pay an
assessment for a sewer they do not
want, being already connected with
the Orchard tract sewer.
The first ordinance that I can find
that provides for the payment of 60
cents per front foot by persons connect
ing with public sewers for which they
have not been assessed, is ordinance No.
427 (new series), adopted November 1.
ISB9. which ordinance did not provide
that In case the parties paying said sum
were compelled to pay assessments for
sewers afterwards constructed that
said sums should be refunded to then,.
Ordinance No. 470 (new series), which
went into effect December 2. 1889, re
pealed ordinance No. 427. and provided
that "in case the assessment of 60 cents
per front foot be paid on property front
ing on a street on which there is no
public sewer, and thereafter a public
sewer be built on said street and said
property be assessed for its construc
tion, and said assessment be paid, the
owner ot said property will be entitled
to have repaid to him from the city
treasury the said assessment of 60
cents per front foot." This ordinance
was In force until May is, 1594. when It
was repealed by ordinance No. 2144
(new series), which re-enacts the old
ordinance, leaving out the clause pro
viding for a refund in case the property
Is afterwards assessed for a sewer. It
can be seen from this that none ofthe
demands I have before mentioned are
for sums which were paid into the gen
eral sewer fund during the time that
ordinance No. 470 was In existence, and
that the parties to said demands have
not the rlgloL as a matter of law, to
have said sums refunded to them.
The demand of .1. E. Murray, which
Is in the form of a communication, is
for the sum of $29.40. and was paid Into
the general sewer fund during the time
that ordinance No. 470 was in force, and
I think that he is clearly entitled to
have the same refunded to him, he
having paid his sewer assessment on
the same property of $35.90 since that
time.
As to the demands of Ewan Lewis
and W. H. Griffin, which are for the sum
of $27 each, said sums having been pall
Into the general sewer fund during last
year and after the repeal of ordinance
No. 470. I am Informed as to these two
cases that they were compelled during
last year to connect with the public
sewer on Ninth street, and to pay said
sums for that pri\ilege, and that at the
same time proceedings were under way
for the construction of a new sewer on
Ninth street, for which they are now as
sessed and with which they will be com
pelled 1 i connect. While they have r,o
legal right to compel a refund of this
$27, the equities are very strong In their
favor, they having been compelled to
pay for a connection on the eve of an as
sessment for another sewer ln the same
street, which they will now have to con
nect with and use. In the Orchard tract
cases the authorities are not so strong,
for the reason that those claimants have
had the use and benefit for ten years of
the sewer which they were required to
pay 60 cents per front foot to connect
with, and they still use such sower and
need not connect with the new one. Of
course it is a hardship that these people
should be compelled to pay an as
sessment on the new sewer, which they
do not need, but the remedy was to have
presented their matter to the council
at the time of the passage of the ordi
nance of intention, and had such new
sewer where lt affects their property left
out of the general sewer district, or
their property left out of the assess
ment district.
In the matter of the petition' of John
Halr.llp In regard to certain sums paid
by him Into the general sewer fund, my
report on the demands of Botterfield et
al. Is probably applicable thereto, but
the farts stated ln his petition are not
sufficiently definite for me to determine
exactly whether he Is entitled to recov
er one of the payments made by him or
not. I return the same herewith, In or
der that your committee may ascertain
the facta Filed.

till of 14 year* as bad as any man conld suffer 1
used to bare to roll ont of bed, and If I eat down
1 could not get up for ten snluutes. I would almost
cry wtUi pain at times. I tried everything and
apt n., relief till I sot your Belt. I received the
Unit on the 71 h dny of last month {Febrnary).
I put it. on the evening; of tbe anme day. wore It
nil nlcht. 1 had not a pain In the morning. I
went to work feellnc well and haye had no pain
since, and don't c-peot any If I take care of my
self. That Is tbe tenth, and I am thankful re yon

Mr. O'Connor has probably worn all aorta
of plasters and tried everything ln the war
of liniments, besides the numerous pre
scriptions the doctors give for lame back,
during the fourteen years he suffered—and
after all Dr. Sanden's Belt cured him in
one night. It seemed almost beyond be
lief, but the statement Is straight from the
heart, and It Is true. Do you suffer from
lame back? Do you suffer from any weak
ness or pain? If so. discard drugs and
plasters aud try this famous Electric Belt.
Get the hook about It, free. Address
