By ths trma of an ordinance which conn befor the city council for final action tomorrow ths city will pay $1200 towards purchasing a new car for Mayor Albs. Ths mayor Is to exchange bis present car for a new one, the dif ference in exchange being in excess of 12000, of which $1200 Is sought from the city. According to the ordinance intro duced by Mayor Albee two weeks ago, the sum of $6600 was appropriated for the purchase of a car for the use of the commissioners, but as this was never expended the mayor offered the services of his private car with the understanding that the sum of $100 a month be allowed for depreciation. His private car cost $4000. The $1200 sought is 12 months' de preciation at $100 a month. The $800 portion of the difference Is to be paid .by the ntayor provided the ordinance passes. The measure will also cancel the ordinance providing for the orig inal appropriation for an official city automobile.
