WATERBURY EVENING DEMOCRAT, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1900.
BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS
Question of Municipal Lighting Intro
" . duced Last Night.
The board of public works held a
meetinglast night, there being present
Mayor Kilduff, Commissioners Whit
ing, Blakesloe, Mahaney. Scully, Sup
erintendent OBrieu of the bureau of
water. Superintendent Reiley of the
street department, Engineer Cairns
and City Clerk M. J. Kyau.
Commissioner Whiting introduced
the question of municipal lighting and
stated that he bad it on excellent au
thority that the city could install a
plant at a reasonable outlay and by
furnishing electricity to people who
might want to use it, save at least
$110,000 on the venture. Some of the
factories do their own lighting now
and it seems to me that the city ought
to be able to make it pay if they can.
Mr Whiting said he knew the city was
not getting the worth of its money
from the local company. lie was also
aware that the municipal lighting com
panies had laws passed in their own
interest which might lead one to be
lieve that they had an undisputed field
but he thought the time had come
when the constitutionality of some of
these laws ought to be tested.
Mayor Kilduff: -I think the Scovill
Manufacturing company and every
other concern that is doing its own
lighting is evading the law. I'd like
to have some one inform me why the
Scovill Manufacturing company can
do its own lighting and the city of
Waterbury cannot. Look at where
Waterbury stands in the premises? Be
fore going into that business two suc
cessive boards of aldermen would have
to pass a vote favoring the project,
then the matter would have to be
submitted to the people and if they
favored it the city could not build
a plant of its own. but instead it would
have to buy out the one that is here
and as that has been merged into the
Connecticut Lighting and Power com
pany. I suppose they would tell us we
could not purchase the Waterbury part
of it unless we bought out the whole
company aud that couldn't be had for.
oh. well, not less than $3. To anyway."
Mr Whiting: "These trolley com
panies appear to have all the law on
their side, but I believe that the time
has come when the whole people will
rise up against thein. I saw in the
papers the other day where they laid
rails through a village when the in
habitants were asleep aud kept them
there simply because the people were
rot able to fight them."
Mayor Kilduff: "You needn't go out
of your own town for a similar case.
Didn't they put down their rails on
the Watertown road without consult
ing anyone about it?"
Mr Whiting: "I'd like to have .the
democrats in power for a while just to
see if they would repeal these laws."
Mr Blakeslee: "I suppose this is a
good time for a man to display his
ignorance of public affairs. What
party passes these measures':"'
Mayor Kilduff (with 'a smile': "Well,
I'm not aware that the democrats
were in power in this state since elec
tricity was discovered."
Mr Scully: "I don't know how the
present board of aldermen would look
at this question, but it is a matter of
public record that a majority of the
two previous board stood prepared to
back up the trolley company as against
the city on all occasions."
Mr Mahaney: "You just try this
board on that matter and you'll soon
tind out whether they represent the
Connecticut Lighting and Power com
pany of the city of Waterbury."
It was finally voted to appoint a
committee consisting of Mayor Kil
duff, Commissioners Whiting and
Blakeslee to consider this problem.
This was followed by a discussion
on the attitude of the Connecticut
Lighting and Power company regard
ing the vote of the board requesting
them to remove a pole that stands in
the center of the square on North
Main street. the company has re
fused to remove it unless the city
finds another location for it. and this
is something they do not feel called
upon to do. The following resolution
was passed:
Whereas, The Connecticut Lighting
and Power company owns and main
tains a pole standing in the square at
the junction of North Main, Cherry
and North Elm street, which pole is
a menace to life, and
Whereas, This board has ordered
the said company to remove the said
pole, tfind said pole has not been re
moved up to the present time, there
fore Voted, That the city attorney is
hereby ordered to take such action
as will cause the said company to re
move said pole on or before December
1.
Mayor Kilduff inquired if anything
had been heard in reference to the in
junction restraining the trolley com
pany from maintaining its rails on
the v atertown road contrary to law.
The case was to have been called in
court before now and as nothing has
been heard from it he considered it
the duty of of the board to inquire
into the present status of the case. A
vote to this effect was passed.
Property owners on Howard street
were heard regarding their petition for
the layout and grade of that street.
Tliey all favored it. It was voted
to recommend to the aldermen that
the board of public works be author
ized to designate such land as is to be
taken for that purpose.
The contract for opening a new road
at the valley turnpike was awarded
,6 Edward McManus for the price of
his bid, $5,415. This is a more favor
able bid than the city received for
that class of work five years ago and
the engineer appeared to be quite
.. pleased with It, but the mayor would
be better pleased if more bids had
. come in. . '
Property owners . on Bishop ' street
were present requesting an extension
of the water main in the street a short
distance. The matter was referred to
the city engineer for an estimate of
expenses.
John Mulvaney was . granted
plumber's Jicense. : -
City Cletk Ryan reported to the
board that the reports of chief of po
lice-showed 33 electric lights found
out of order daring the period from
January 1 to October 1 of this year.
The superintendent of streets was
instructed to carry out the orders of
the board of aldermen to have elec
tric" lights installed at the corner of
Cherry street and Cherry avenue, and
, in the angle in Chatfield street; also
to lay a crosswalk on Easton avenue
in. the north line of Brewster street
and to proceed with the work of grad
ing and laying gutters-in Brewster
street and Easton avenue.
Martin Scully presented a map
showing the surrey and layout of his
property on Luke street and Sylvan
avenue where he has petitioned for
permission to lay out four new streets.
There are fifty -four lots in the tract
and the petitioner stated that there is
now demand for the lots fronting on
Luke street and Sylvan avenue, and
that before disposing of them - he
lo-;" J like to get the location of the
streets which will run through the rear
of the property. The board appeared
to be satisfied with . the survey, but
decided to take no action in the
premises until they have looked the
ground over. This and other peti
tions referred to the board of aldermen
were placed on the list for investiga
tion. ' -
Hans Rasmussen wanted to know
what the city was going to do about
South park. The mayor promised to
have the paper looked up at the next
meeting. The city engineer was in
structed to advertise for bids for the
construction of a sewer in West Grove
street to be received at 8 o'clock Tues
day evening, November 27. also to
prepare a map for the layout of Pine
stret from Hillside avenue to Cooke
stret. The property owners on' Pine
street will be given a hearing on No
vember 27 in the matter of layout and
establishing the building lines on both
sides.
It was voted to recommend to the
aldermen that Mayor Kilduff be dele
gated to represent Waterbury ' at the
annual meeting of the League Ameri
can Municipalities in Charleston, S. C,
December 12-15.
On motion of Commissioner Whiting
the board recommended to the board
of aldermen that the square formed
by the junction of North Main, Bishop,
Grove, Cherry and North Elm streets
be known as North square.
It was voted that from and after
December 1 in all cases, if plumbers
fail to make prompt and proper re
turns as required by the rule, the
proper officer be authorized and direct
ed to refuse permits and report to the
board the names of the plumbers.
Superintendent O'Brien reported
that the pumping station will be in
working order in a day or two and in
quired if the board desired to give
him any instruction in reference to
proposition 1o clean the East Mountain
eservoir. He was ordered to pro-
eed with the work of cleaning the
eservoir as soon as convenient.
The payrolls for the first half of the
month were approved as follows:
Bureau of Engineering, i?3-10.25; water
epartment. $-122.30: street depart
ment. $1,940.07; sewer department,
SI 22.25.
The board adjourned until Novem
ber 27.
S EC RE T A It Y LONG'S MOVE.
Will Urge the Establishment of a Na
tional Keserve.
New York, Nov 14. Secretary Long,
it is said, in a special dispatch to the
Tribune from Washington, will, iu his
annual report, urge the establishment
of a national naval reserve to supplant
the existing naval militia, which is
thought to have outlived its useful
ness as shown by its rapid deteriora
tion since the war with Spain. The
proposed national reserve is already
under consideration iu congress, with
the endorsement of all naval and mar
itime interests. It contemplates the
nrollment of officers and seamen in
the merchant service, much after the
manner of the British reserve, at an
xpense far below that of the naval
militia, with the distinct advantage of
making experienced seafaring men
available for service aboard lighting
ships. It will be shown that in case
of war to-morrow the United States
warships now in service would require
at least 000 officers and 10,000 men
for lighting complements. With a
rational naval reserve enrolled this
force could be secured and made effi
cient in a few weeks, while, on the
other hand, the present naval militia
system could not supply one-tenth the
number in twice the time.
LOOKING FOR METEORS.
New Haven. Conn, Nov 14. The as
tronomers at the Yale observatory will
keep vigil to-night and to-morrow
night to look for possible Leonids, as
they did all night and far into the
morning to-day. The plates when ex
amined to-day by expert photogra
phers did not reveal a single metor.
But the delicate apparatus will be
mounted again to-night in the hope
that the meteoric display, if it comes
this year, may be caught. The Yale
astronomers are not hopeful, however.
Professor Chase said this morning:
'The chances are against our seeing
the meteors because in the first place
it is not. certain that the showers will
appear this year, and secondly the
showers, if they do come, may pass
before 11 o'clock at night the hour at
which the radiant is above the horizon
or the meteors may pass in the day
time being visible only in some other
part of the earth where night is. We
are in position and prepared to catch
what there may be, however, in the
sky."
LATIN AMERICANS.
Conarreaa at Madrid Hears Pari a
Trtt- Violently Denounced.
MADRID, Nov. 14. During the pro
ceedines ot the Spanish-American con
gress yesterday aud while the report of
the committee on arbitration was uder
(iicuision the Conde de Luque, proreor
of international law iu the University of
Madrid, delivered a violent speoca agaiast
the Spanish-American treaty of Paris, de
claring that "people ought to protest
against the feudalism that exists now iu
questions of international order."
Senor Groizard, former minister of for
eign affairs, qualified this doctrine as
"dangerous." '
Other committees proposed the estab
lishment of a Spanish-American bank,
with branches in all the large towns of
Latin America, half the capital to be
supplied by Spain and the rest by the
Latin republics; advised the government
of Spain to reduce railway and other
tariffs and to reform the customs dues in
order to facilitate the importation of
Spanish-American produce and advocated
the concession by the Spanish-American
governments of navigation bounties, the
reduction of harbor dues and the estab
lishment of coaling stations and stations
for stores. .
Other recommendations were that the
Spanish-American governments should
negotiate commercial treaties with Spain,
that permanent expositions for Spanish
and Spanish-American produce should be
established, that' all sorts of facilities
should be extended to commercial travel
era and that au. exportation and import
tion baak, with numerous branches,
should be feuaded. ' .

V AMOUNT NOT KNOWN.
Assignee of Grant Bros, Stock Brokers,
Declines to Discuss Failure.
New York, Nov 14. E. G. Steduian,
assignee of the firm of Grant Bros,
stock, brokers, gave out the following
statement to-day: . '
"The amount of the assets and liabil
ities of the firm cannot be stated until
I have had opportunity to examine into
its affairs- and the schedules and inven
tory have been prepared: nor can I
state the cause of the assignment be
yond the fact that the firm was in
debted to an amount greater than it
had the means to pay, and that the
reason therefor appears to be the re
cetn discovery that its resources had
been depleted in some way, the par
ticulars of which may be definitely
known only from thorough examina
tion of the firm's books."
Mr Stedman said he had read the
statement of Mrs John K. Van Sickle,
wife of one of the partners in the firm
of Grant Bros, in which she intimates
that sensational developments will fol
low; in the failure, but he declined to
reply to the same.
A BIG FAILURE.
Foreign Attachments Secured Against
Weil-Known Business Houses.
Philadelphia, Nov 14.---William L.
Strong &. Co, wholesale dry goods mer
chants, whose assignment was an
nounced in New Y'ork yesterday have
a branch house in this city at which
a large business is transacted. Attor
neys have secured foreign attachments
against the firm in common pleas court
here for the following creditors:
Jane T. Griswold, with bail fixed at
$92,000; Frank T. Griswold, $70,000
bail, and Elizabeth T. Griswold, with
$102,100 bail, and summoning Hood,
Foulkrod & Co, George F. Fort & Co,
Strawbridge & Clothier, John Wanna
maker, Folwell Brothers & Co, and
John G. Vogler as garnishees.
The summoning of the firms named
is intended by the attorneys for the
plaintiffs to secure possession of any
goods or moneys belonging to William
L. Strong - Co, that may have been
in their keeping at the time of the
failure. One of the attorneys for the
Griswolds said: "It is one of the
largest failures that has occurred in
the last few years, and the liabilities
will easily, amount to $0,000,000."
THE FOREIGN MINISTERS.
Talk On The Chinese Question Early
Settlement Looked For.
Pekin, Nov 12, via Shanghai, Nov 14.
A protracted conference of the for
eign ministers was held to-day, at the
conclusion of which there was a gen
eral expression of gratilication at the
progress made towards reaching a
settlement. It was stated that most
of the minor points had been disposed
ol ami that an agreement had been
reached upon several essential ques
tions. The meeting disclosed fewer
differences over important points than
was expected, which is largely due to
the fact that the ministers have re
ceived definite instructions from their
home governments.
United States Minister Conger said,
he was encouraged to believe that pro-'
positions would be ready to be siib
ui'tted to the Chinese plenipotentiaries
at an earlier date than he had here
tofore ho;ied.
The ministers will meet again to
morrow. Reliable information from Niu
Chwang indicates a disturbed condi
tion of affairs there. Robbers and pi
rates are harrying the region aud par
alyzing commerce. The Russians are
making an effort to suppress the
troubles except along the railway. The
weather is becoming colder, with
nightly frosts, but the supply of fuel
is good, and the troops are not suffer
ing. AT BOTTOM OF WELL.
Thomas McPheters Buried Under
' Pile of Sand and Stone.
Chicago, Nov 14. A special to the
lribune from Sullivan, Ind, says: Un
der a thin platform of boards, piled
nign with tons of sand, at the bottom
of a thirty foot well, on a farm near
here. Thomas McPheters is lyin
awaiting a rescue, which now seems
impossible. To see the light of day
again the man must sustain life until
another well can be dug some distance
from the one in which he is impr
oned and a tunnel cut to connect the
two shafts. Al efforts to remove the
sand from above McPheters has. proved
futile, another cave-in following each
attempt at rescue by this means.
