Caned to be Held September 5th Amount ofCtlflcates Will oelOO.OOO; Not exceeding 5 Per Cent. Interest. Aye and Nay Vote. ; . f unce again did the Board of Alder men delve in the sewerage proposi uuu jeweraay axiernoon and once a. j again has it been decided to hold an election on the question of municipal ownership. The date for the 4tvote of the people" ia September 5th, and the amount of bonds proposed to be issued is 1100,000. The discussion lasted for a little more than an hour and there were perhaps fifty spectators outside the railing in the Mayor's office when the vote of six to four was recorded on the proposition. Present at the meeting were Mayor Waddell, Aldermen Skinner, Maun der. Harriss, Bailey, Mann, Von Olahn, Parker, Johnson, West and. spencer, mty Attorney Bellamy, City Superintendent of Health Harper, City Engineer Jos. EL McBee and others. The sewerage debate was not reached until after all the remaining business had been disposed of. It began with the reading of a peti uon from some 175 or 200 citizens asking for a submission of the ques tion to the people. Aldermen Parker led off with a motion to hold the de- aired election on September 12th. Alderman Johnson supplemented the motion with an ex haustive resolution providing for the election on Septem ber 5th, same to be held under the Act of 1891. The resolution was prac tically the same in text and substance as that one published when the elec tion was first called and subsequently called off several weeks ago. The res olution provides for the floating of the $100,000 bonds in the denomination of $500 each, maturing if 30 years and bearing a rate of ' interest not to exceed 5 per cent. The document also provides for a tax on all connections to pay intefest on the bonds and pro vide a sinking fund for the retiring of the bonds at the expiration of the thirty years. Mr. Johnson supple mented his motion by saying that in the manner of deriving the revenue as prescribed only the beneficiaries of the system would contribute to the payment for the installation of the plant. ; Mayor Waddell called attention to the fact that the ordinance did not say at what premium or decrease the bonds should be sold. Mr. Johnson amended the document, providing the sale of the bonds at par, and still ater amended the resolution by ap propriating $500 to j defray the ex pense of holding the election. Alderman Harries questioned the validity of an election to be held be fore the next regular ; municipal elec tion. At this juncture a motion for a recess of ten minutes prevailed and the room resolved itself into a caucus between different factions on the board and their friends. Upon the reassembling, the Mayor inquired if it would not be in order to hear from a special committee appoint ed at the last meeting to treat with the several sewerage companies and advise among themselves as to a settlement of the question. This suggestion was not then, entertained, and Alderman Mann spoke at some length as to hisv position on the proposition, saying that he was In favor of municipal ownership, but he did not want the people of his ward to pay tax for a system from which they derived no benefit, it being a well known fact that the Fifth ward has no system of water works. Furthermore, he said, the city owned no system of water works, and he desired to know what it would cost the city for "flush" water. He directed his inquiries to Alderman Johnson, who, when Mr. Mann finished speaking, stated that t was his desire that only those who connected with the, sewer pay fori the interest on the bonds and into Hhe iquidation fund. As to water, if the Clarendon water- works would not give equitable rates it would be the duty of the city to put in iU own sys tem of water works, just as it pro posed in the matter of sewerage. Aderman Mann objected to the mode of procedure. He thought the city should brgin at the bottom and go to the top; not begin at the top and go to the bottom.1 Alderman Parker spoke again in favor of a. popular vote and Mayor Waddell stated in explanation that if the bonds were floated the ' whole property-of the city would stand good for them and not that portion of it which required sev benefit. There could be no discrimination even should the board so enact; it would be unconstitutional. , . . Alderman Harriss expressed himself . . i I 1 Kufr a favor oi municipal uwuc"f he wanted it according to law and ask ed the City Attorney's advice as to the egality of the proposed election. Mr. Bellamy very clearly stated tne egal status of the case by saying that he bad given the matter careful con sideration and was thoroughly eon-, vinced that any election for this pur pose prior to the next regular muni cipal election would be absolutely llegal; that not only from the ex press wording of the act, bnt also from the context it wss clearly evident that the General Assembly intended that the question should only be submitted when there was a regular municipal 1 HE election; that the reason was obvious. as an election necessarily entailed a large expenditure of money, (as in this case oyer $500). The Legislature, prompted by a spirit of economy, had wisely inserted that clause so as to prevent frequent elections. Mr. Bellamy stated also that the question of sewerage could not be alone submitted to the people under the act, but would necessarily have to be submitted conjointly with the question of street improvement, arthe law expressly provides that there shall be two ballots, one for Street Im provements" and the other for "Sew erage," the voter to use his choice as to which he will vote for. "The idea of the Legislature," he said. was evidently to give the citi sens the choice of 1 spending their money for one of two things. street Improvements" or "Sewer age ;"that he was absolutely positive as a matter of law that if the election was held at any other time than at a regular municipal election such elec tion would be void. He said further that this was Ihis legal opinion which he geve ft his official capacity, as city attorney regardless of his own per sonal views and that he desired to be so placed on record in the 'event liti gation should follow as he believed the Supreme Court would sustain his views. Alderman Johnson read the law and took issue with Mr. Bellamy, say - ing that some of the best attorneys in the city were of a contrary opinion to those expressed by Mr. Bellamy. Alderman Maunder then called for the report of the special committee spoken of above and the vote as to whether it should be received was lost, Alderman Maunder, West and Skinner alone voting for the report The vote was then called upon Mr. Johnson's election proposition and the same was carried, six to four, Al- demen Johnson, Parker, VonGlahn, Mann, Harriss and Bailey voting aye, Aldermen Maunder, Skinner, West and Spencer voting nay. There was a relief from the tension to which the meeting had been drawn when the vote was all over and a 'report from the special committee was called. A majority report signed by Messrs. Maunder, and Skinner was handed to the clerk and Alderman Harriss handed in a minority report. The minority report was that the contract with the Wilmington Sew erage Company as embodied in the majority report be referred to the Board of Audit and Finance for con sideration. The majority report recommended the acceptance of the contract of the Wilmington Sewerage Com pany to construct a system as had been - previously adopted with the concessions that all city public school buildings and fire engine houses be furnished with service free of cost. A further concession is: "That all the net earnings of said company in excess of the amount re quired to pay operating expenses, interest on bonds, and such an amount as may be necessary to create a sinking fund sufficient in amount to redeem the bonds of said- company at maturity and a dividend of six per cent per annum on the capital stock of the said company, shall be paid to the city as a part consideration for this contract. "That for the general protection of the interest of the city under this con tract, the said city of Wilmington shall have the power and is hereby authorized to nominate and ap point one director in said company and'the'said sewerage company hereby agrees to elect the official appointee for that purpose, who shall serve as a member of the Board of Directors of said company. "That In the event it shall. become necessary for the city or other proper authorities for sanitary reasons to con demn any private sewer or sewers, or in the event any of the owner or own ers of any private sewer or sewers should desire to surrender the said sewer or sewers to said company, then and in either of said events it shall be incumbent upon the aaid company, the owner or owners therefore being wil ling, to take the said sewer or sewers so condemned or surrendered from said owner and owners and shall pay the actual cost value of the construe tion of said sewer or sewers in the stock of said company, which said stock shall be taken by the owner or owners of said sewer or sewers con -demned or surrendered at par value in full payment of same. " In submitting the contract the com mittee closed as follows: "Your committee are assured that the said Wilmington Sewerage Company has ample financial ability to construct an adequate system of sewerage for the city according to tne most moaern hygienic methods as already approved by the Board of Health of the State of North Carolina and the Board of Health of the city of Wilmington, and that so much of the work as has already been constructed has been per formed in a most scientinc and sxuiiui manner, and the city is fortunate in. having an opportunity to secure such a system upon such : advantageous terms." The majority report failed of adop tion in a vote of 4 to 3. A petition from , some 300 citizens asking the board to allow excavations in all parts of the city north of Camp bell street ; east of Seventh street and south of Church street, was referred to the Sanitary committee."

The ame was called during the last half of the third inning up to which time only one of the locals had touch ed first while three of the Champions had crossed the rubber and three more had perched on bags. Hopkins, ; Wil mington's latest twirling addition made his first appearance and pitched win ing ball, not permitting a hit, and the only man he allowed to reach first was Qillisran, to whom he could notoerve up strikes with a wet ball. He went in with perfect control of hot i ones while his coolness was in keeping with the good article of ball. His only time at bat netted a hit. Wolfe pitched for the locals. : The first two innings was a case of three up and out In the third Cranston led off with a hit and was advanced to second on Stewart's sacrifice. On Hopkins' single he scored. Clayton singled and sent Hopkins to aecohd to cross the plate .later on Warren's single after Devlin had flied out on a foul to Kemmer. McGinnis drew four balls and filled the bases. Allen got 1 hit and forced Clayton home. Frost hit out to Wolfe. The only sensational play of the game was a "beaut' It was . Pulaififer's one- hand running catch of Devlin's drive to left To day's prevented game will of course necessitate a double-header. It will probably be played Wednesday morn ing and afternoon.

Pitcher Henry Willig, who has been released by Wilmington, left yesterday afternoon for Cheraw, S. (J., to do the alab honors tor a team at that point i The three games to be played here between the Turtles Sand the Giants this week will be the most interesting of the season and should attract great crowds. Though but three innings were played at Tarboro, the score of 3 to 0 in favor of Wilmington indicates how it would have been if the whole game could have been played. Hopkins will probably go in the box for the Giants to-day. If two games are played witn larooro to morrow Stewart and Allen will prob ably pitch for Wilmington. - For the purpose of deciding a bet a baseball crank at Georgetown, S. O., asks the V.

The systematic bicycle stealing that has been in progress in the citv for more than a week, as spoken of in Sunday's Stab, has been balked by the police and two of the alleged pur- lomers are in the toils.
