Albee wants the city t keep grass and

the question arose whose duty it would
become to enforce the ordinance. Some
bought the polios department should
Osculate It, aad ethers that the city ea

from such fate, and the bill waa fin

CHIEF CAMPBELL OBJECTS.
An intreeting discussion occupied a
half-hour's time when Bentley s ordi
nance defining hew outer walls should be
constructed oil buildings within the fjre
limits, it amended Section 8 of Ordi
nance 7,481, and Mr. Bentley said he
introduced it because the present ordi
nance did not "-maka any provision for
walla of a light wall, or air shaft, and
that the owners of tha Failing Build
ing, at Third and Morrison streets, want
ed to use terra-cbtta, instead of brick, for
the walls of their light well. Fire Chief
Campbell, who was present, objected to
the ordinance, saying that a terra-cotta
wall would leave windows and openings
very objectionable in case of Are. He
said the architects ot the Falling Build
ing were Informed before they" began
work that a. brick wall was necessary.
The chief said that the present ordinance
eoverad- the ground very , well. --Tha ordi
nance waa referred to -the street com
Wtttea,'.'...' , - ....s...-- ..
FOB ANOTHER OIL "TANK. ""
Ah ordinance was Introduced for grant
ing the Standard Oil Company permis
sion to erect a tank for tha storage of fuel
oil at the northeast corner of East Salmon
and East Water streets. The stipulations
in the ordinance are that a retaining wall
of a height not less than 28 feet above
low water mark be built, and that the
ground around the tank be filled to the
center line of the. street. Permission was
also asked by the company to lay a -pipe
line In East Main street, from East First
to the river.
Secretary R. M. Kelly, of the local
Board of Fire' Underwriters, Was present
at the Council and asked permission to
speak. He said that crude petroleum was
very explosive and a hazard to any safe
guards against fires. He read two tele
gram from San Francisco, telling of
the explosion yesterday aboard the steam
er Progresso, showing that crude oil may
