CLAIMED SEWER WASN0 GOOD Property Owners Respond by Asking Why It Was Built, and Why City Property Should Be Given Away Goodin to Return the Tilt. PnHrty owner along Twelfth and Fourteenth street, between Commercial street ami the waterfront, are Incensed at the action of the city authorities, in allowing the tiling in the surface sewer drains to be removed by , A. Goodin a contractor, and appropriated to hi 'ntivate use. Ut week Mr. Goodin hauled the tile to Thirty fifth street where Jie ha a city contract, and wa all but ready to use it in the work there, lie wa given permission to take the tile, he says, by tncmluT of the Sheet Commit lee, who excuse their ae tion oil the ground that the wer us out it repair. Thi excuse, however, doc not satisfy the proTty ownei who iiuid a heavy assessment to have the Mwer installed a few year ag nnd they now demand to know, ill the first plats:1, why the sewer wa allowed to m-t out of repair, ami in the next, what light memlier of the Stre.-t Com mittee, have tu give away property longing to the city. Mr. Goodin he wu tdd to take the tile, bv is'rlain memls-r of the Street Committee of the Council, but which memlH'l he declines to nay. lie found the tile buried in the mud, he av, where it was woithle snd doing nobody t"V gissl. lie i now holding it suhject to the order of the Street Com mittee, and will di-Hw of it, as they may dictate. Councilman '. II. Hansen, Chairman of the Committee on Street, stated last evening that he Would consult City Attorney Smith in regard to the Twelfth and Fourteenth street ewcr, and that until then he did not know jii-l what lotion would Ite taken, lie admitted tht Gnodin had been told lo take the pile by member of the com mil tec, and that lie did not upoe. that unv objection would be raised. The eucr, he declared, had Umg been out of repair, and that the tile wax in the tniid where it wa of no scivirc to any one. "I shall consult City Attorney Smith," saiil .Mr. Hansen last night, ''and ascer tain wIioh- duty it shall be to keep the ewers in repair. If thi duty fall on lie city, the city will have to hsik after it, but if it-hclong to the prnM-ity-owner, 1111 assessment will have to he levied. In any event Goodin will have lo surrender the tile. The newer was liiiilt some tcn'ycar ago and the inn jolity of the tile had fallen from the nicr -structure into the mud below. It wa diseoimeeted at Commercial street, some time ii-ro, when it liceame clogged, and since then it has (rone to ruin." The proM-ity owner, however, talk in a different tone of voice, and declare that they propose to see that not only the tile is let III mil, but that the sewer is kept in repair hereafter. "We paid .l.."iO wr foot when thoe sewers were built," declared one of them yesterday. "We were told that it wu imperative that the surface drain be curried to the waterfront, und in order thut. this illicit he done, the sewer were conl meted. When they became clogged with refuse, the Street Super intendent broke them open at Com merciiil s,.,., instead of cleaning them, as he -IimiiM hiive done, mid since that time I'd. improvement for which we spent our money ha Is-cti of no public gol. "Further than Hint, we would like to know for whom it is to give away (he property of the -city. This con tractor hauled uuay those tile and was going to n-e them in a job for which he had a contract from the city. We have consulted a lawyer, ami will see if this thing is allowed to go on. "F. A. Fisher, one of the property owner, who is aroused over the pro posed donation of the tile, encoiinteied Councilman den lfanV-n, Chairman of the Street Committee, on the street last evening, and a' somewhat stormy scene ensued. In resHiufl to a question a to where Goodin received his authority to take the tile, Hansen practically ad mitted that it had been given him by mcmlter of the Committee, "The sewer was out of repair, and of tio use," Mr. Hansen concluded.. "Yes. and that is another thing we want to know about," replied Mr. Fish er. "Why aren't the sewers kept in re pair. As a matter of fact tbe Street Commissioner went up to the corner there, and knocked a hole in them, when they became clogged, instead of getting lift! : lm Hi Remember If you buy a Suit or Overcoat besr ing P.
