IRREGULARITY , DISCOVERED , IN 46TH STREET PUBLIC . ' ' ' WHARF . A pretty little episode occurred at the commencement of the meeting of the Common Council last night, so tr frqirlM jKliiiaryf routine of the regular c!tons that it came a t pleasant surprise. On the mayor's kik was a big bunch of flowers. ' "They are a niemento of the may or'l silver wedding lait nlght,'f said Dr. Henderson. "To those who not fortunate to have been at the little celebration of the anniversary ,, last night," went on Dr. Henderaon, -."I would like to say it was one of the plcantst. occasion of my . life. JAnd' those flower were brought, here Htonight in a manner to place the sil ver wedding . anniversary of the mayor on record." Dr. Henderion spoke feelingly 'and very fittingly for several minules. . -. Mayor Wise made a brief but very happy response. He said he, would long treasure hit memories ' of the council and the friends in the coun cil. ' '- .!..! -. . Then tlx council got down to business, and transacted a vast amount of work in business-like manner.' Several matters of more than ordinary importance arose. PROCEEDINGS IRREGULAR ' Dr. Logan who has displayed in terest in the project f the ; con struction of the public wharf at 46th atreet, and the improvement of the street there, caused some little surprise by the announcement that the proceedings had been discovered to be "irregular" and that therefore the whole matter was not on a proper legal basis. It seem that by the inadvertance of someone the grade of the street had never be;n re-established iin accordance f with the need of 'the contemplated im provement, and the re-establishment of "the grade nof being "part of the proceedings they"were " ' eonsequntly rrotlliir nt rtil -J;' .f. Thus the project comes to sud den and somewhat , inglorious end, The threatened litigation by , prop erly owners need not be brought, and Contractor Lebeck is also freed from a somewhat embarrassing situ ation, To formally free him from hi real or presumed ' contract with the city it was moved and carried that he be f feed from hia obligation Dr. Logan made a '-motion, however, that ttept be taken to estabb'sb the grade there5 and this waa carried. The discovery that there was ir regularity in tne proceedings may perhap be termed a tomewhat lucky strike, and probably - one or more members of , the; city administration will feel that the city has got out of a rather embarrassing - situation without going to the end of a la suit to find out what the trouble was all about. ' IMPROVE ALLEY. (The council also ordered that the improvement of the alleyway where on the street ears run from 38th to 42nd street be ordered carried ou. The contract is to be let t once and is to be completed before March 1. The improvement is to be 20 feet in width. This part of the highway was getting in dangerously bad shape and the improvement was said to be imperatively required. THE DOG POUND Chief of Folice Oberg had a griev ance. Some one broke down the walls of the little old place that does duty as t(te city pound on Monday night and gave freedom to some dogs and a cow. He therefore put it up to the council, stating that re pairs or a new pound is required. The coudncilmen saw the justice of this requisition and , referred the matter to the proper committee with power to act. THE IRVING SLIDE. In"Tcommuhication to the cottn-' cil Fred Warren, whose beautiful home is being slightly affected by the slide, enclosed a report made to him by G. B. Hegardt, the Portland civil engineer, in relation to the matter, and the Hegardt report, an interesting and valuable one, was read to the council by the , clerk, Judge' Anderson. . Mr. Hegardt suggests that in or der to bring about a condition of H O W r r w o r o H M O P 1 en WWIWIt ' 2. o o o o a Q o rt a d o a.; a o C n c H O c S o C a. o o 2 Ci 1A 5 r s h 1?

Ait suggest! that this should be ; stopped ; at -nce -and should not be permitted to be re sumed, inasmuch as if thia 'ground is taken away it simply removea the support of the big mast of earth niehind it and is very likely to cause much further damage. While Mr. Hegardt'a suggestion In thia re spect terns of force, it may appear doubtful that it take into consid eration the seven or eight little homes at the bottom of the slide. They are in immediately danger. The "tie" that the engineer speaks of is slowly but surely crushing these modest little homes. This "toe" is forcing them into the river. Hence it is that the, property owners at the bottom of the slide are working "ceaselessly to remove the "toe", though at the same time they are by their action apparently increasing the danger to the prop erty at the top of the hill. The sit uation evidently is not a simple one. Mr. Hesrardt suggests that in or der to further increase the support from the "toe," or bottom of the slide, action should be taken to' level off such portins of the sliding hill side as are not already self draining, closing in all cracks and fissures, and to prove a system of drains or depressions which shall carry off the water to the sides of the slide and away from the center, utiier rec ommendations of a similar nature were made by Mr. Hegardt. He re ferred to the cracks reported by property owners In the land above Irving avenue. He suggests the citv should take action in the matter, as matter of such public import that (the local property owners should not Mof right be called upon to bear the whole burden. ' ' D. Hi. Welch, who owns property at the foot of the slide, address the council after the reading of Mr. Hegardt'a report. ; He did not hesi tate to criticize it. He said it might be an excellent report considered in relation to, the saving of "one man's'' property, but Mr. Welch did not deem it of such a comprehensive nature that "It provides a good plan for all the properties involved. Mr. Welch's remarks were apparently marked with .. much good sense and practical understanding. He said that in his opinion the whole matter of the slide would never be settled, and settled right, until a street was Pcut .through 19th "street- One -r more of the council agreed with this opinion. An. interesting matter arose as an incidental. An ordinance'was intro duced, after careful ' preparation by the city attorney, to control blasting 'in the city. . The ordinance it plain ly an excellent one, and "very badly 'needed. How some contractors can be so stupid as one or more have been in handling blasting in the city is hot very plain.; Mr. Abercrombie, the city attorney, stated that in his opinion the local alide in front of his property has been caused by this heavy blasting.' He said that Engi neer Hegardt agreed with him in this. ' Mr.. Hegardt also agreed that Jhe heavy blasting that has been go ing on in that neighborhood has had (Continued on page 6) Will Get To Be Alright- The startling news was brought to this city yesterday, that on Friday evening last District Court Baili.f Chance, known all over this entire country as "Uncle Bill," one of the "Fathers in Israel" and a pioneer of the highest order and respected everywhere, suffered ; a par tial stroke of paralysis, his limbs giving out He was remov ed to his home, and is now rallying from the attack, with every show of soon being as well as ever.
