This appropriation waa split Into soparate items and tne money was ex pended in the manner and for the spe- rlflo purposes ordered by your honor- ante oooy, arter you naa aiecusseo through your committee of ways and means the oueatlon aa- to whether the city or tn noma xeiepnone company should aaume th cost of such expendi ture. . "The power of the city to aasesa th coat of such underground cables Is much greater and more definite in the orovl sions of the Pacific Telephone & Tele graph company than with th Horn Telephone company, and such power is vested directly In your handa, and it seems a pity (assuming that the cltv can enforce the terms of such contract) that your honorable body had not ao- eptea tne oner made to it to check over ail estimates, and been leas intent In splitting rp the appropriations for the conduct or tne city business, in a man ner designed to hamper and delay th aaminiatration or tn same. I hope that vou will take action In this matter and will not lonrer delay action in respect to some otner Iran chines to which your attention has been called. HARRT LANE, Mayor.
