The Board of Audit and Finance in Regular Semi-Monthly Meeting Yesterday. A RECESS UNTIL TO-DAY. Will Consider Lighting Question and Per manent Street Improvement This Afterooon Dlsspprovsl of the Extra Health Officer. Th city Board of Audit and Fi nance was in session two hours yes terday afternoon, but not having com pleted the business for transaction at the meeting, a recess was taken until 3 o'clock this afternoon. The business transacted yesterday was not of an Important character, but at the meet ing to-day it is expected that the lighting question will be considered; likewise the tax ordinance and several other matter of Interest. . At the meeting yesterday Mr. O. W. Yates presided in the absence of Chairman H. O. McQueen, who Is out of the city, and members in attendance vrere Messrs'. Jesse Wilder and J. A. Orrell. The usual bills for current expenses were audited and approved. A communication was read from tbe City Clerk and Treasurer, offi cially informing the Board of the ac tion of the Aldermen at their meeting Monday night. The usual loan of $30,000 to tide the city over the Sum mer months until tax-gathering time, as adopted by the Aldermen, was con curred in. The Board refused to concur In the appropriation of $120 for the services of an extra health officer during the remainder of the Summer. The extra health officer was strongly urged at a recent meeting of the newly con stituted Board of Health, which de cided upon a campaign for the better ment of the sanitary condition of the city, but the Board or Audit and Fi nance was not officially advised of the recommendation and was of the opin ion that the present force of inspectors is sufficient. ' The appropriation or $30,000 for permanent street improvements wss deferred for further Information. It ia quite probable that the matter will be taken up and disposed of at this afternoon's adjourned meeting. The Board desires to be officially informed as to the probable revenue of the city before making a large appropriation of the kind recommended by the Al dermen. In the meantime Mayor Springer has advertised for bids for material and these will be opened Fri day or Saturday. By that date it is expected that the Board of Audit and Finance will have taken some action so that the work of permanently Im proving the streets may go on after the few months delay incident to a change of administrations and the date for the beginning of the new fiscal year. The bids for furnishing the city with coal, brick, lime and cement as ac cepted by the Board of Aldermen were again ?not concurred in by the Board of Audit and Finance. The Alder men returned the bids to the Board of Audit and Finance and now the Board of Audit and Finance returns them again to the Aldermen. The differ ence between the two boards is as to which of the bidders Is the lowest. Messrs. J. A. Springer & Co. were awarded the coal contract and Messrs. J. T. Riley & Co. that for brick and lime. Cement and Supply The Coal, Co. claims to be the lowest bidder for a part of the items at least and has employed Herbert McClammy, Eiq., to urge their claims for the contract. Bill of City Attorney Wm. J. Bel lamy, covering commissions on back tax collections up to the beginning of the new fiscal year June 1st, was ex amined, found correct and duly ap proved.
