At the meeting of the city council last evening Mayor Dugan made an adverse report on the matter of the payment of the claims presented against the city for damages sustained by the action of the fire department in turning water on the saloons of J. J. Anderson & Co. and Simon Hauswirth during the trouble on the Fourth of July. The report of the mayor was as follows: To the Members of the City Council. GENTLEMEN:—In regard to the claims presented by J. J. Anderson & Co. and Simon Hauswirth for damages alleged to have been sustained on July 4, 1894, I have refused to sign any warrants and will refuse to sign any warrants for the payments of said claims, for the reason that I have been informed by E. S. Booth, the acting city attorney, that the city is not responsible to the above named parties for damages sustained on that day. The reason given by the acting city attorney is, First—The city is not responsible for any property destroyed by a mob or riot. Second—Where a riot occurs within the limits of a city the mayor is empowere[d?] by statute to quell the said riot or disturbance and to use all necessary and reasonable means in doing so. On the day in question a riot was in progress on Broadway, between Academy and Main streets, and was precipitated by the acts of the above named parties in placing certain inscriptions over their places of business, (their right to do so I do not question, but the policy of doing so was very questionable,) and by means thereof a riot was precipitated, and all the available forces of the city government and the state officers was necessary to quell it. In quelling the said riot some damage might have been sustained by the above named parties, but the damage was brought on by their own imprudence without any fault or negligence on the part of the city, or any of its officers, and therefore the said claims should not be paid. The acting city attorney promised to submit a written opinion, but he has failed to do so, but the above is in substance the gist of the verbal opinion given me. All of which is respectfully submitted. E. O. DUGAN, Mayor. Alderman Cook asked why the claims of Mrs. Morier and Charles Heilbronner were not included in the mayor's message, and the latter replied that they were in no way responsible for the damage done to their property, but that Hauswirth and Anderson were. Alderman Kelly reminded the council that Mrs. Morier was a widow, and while she was not pushing her claim against the city, he thought she should be paid. Alderman Pascoe on moving that the message be referred to the judiciary committee said that if one was to be paid, all should be. He believed, however, that the judiciary committee could straighten the matter and the mayor's communication was referred to them. The monthly reports of the fire marshal, building inspector and poundmaster were read. The fire marshal reported eight fires during the past month with a loss of $260. The poundmaster reported that he had captured eleven dogs and eleven head of cattle during the month and had killed fifteen dogs and collected $21.50. The report showed a falling off from the preceding month. G. A. and C. F. Cobban presented a communication, offering to trade the Cobban block for the old city hall property on West Park street and take a bonus of $15,000 in interest bearing warrants. Referred to the public building committee. The Independent Scandinavian church was allowed the use of the Auditorium for an entertainment on Aug. 25. Owing to the fact that the Auditorium had been previously engaged by the Ladies' Aid society for a concert this evening, the application of the Free Coinage association for the use of the hall for General Warner's lecture this evening, was not acted upon. The street and alley committee recommended that sidewalks be laid on Academy street, Broadway and Front street. The committee also recommended that Mr. Patterson's offer to sell the city some property be laid on the table. An ordinance was also introduced changing the grade on certain streets. The Phoenix Electric Light and Steam Heating company filed its acceptance of the franchise granted it and gave a bond of $5,000 with M. J. Connell and John M. Stewart as sureties. The Butte General Electric company signed the contract for supplying the city with light for one year and filed a $2,000 bond. Alderman Kelly reminded the council that there was an ordinance providing for the painting of the telegraph poles of the city and that the Western Union Telegraph company had failed to comply with its provisions. The clerk was instructed to notify the company that unless the work of painting the poles was commenced before the next council meeting the street commissioner would be instructed to count the poles and collect rent on all unpainted ones as provided by the ordinance. The ordinance to create a sewer district on the east side of the city was defeated. The mayor appointed J. H. McCarthy, A. T. Morgan and F. S. Jones as commissioners to assess damages for a change of grade on Arizona street. ## Column 3 T. E. Butler, publisher of the public library catalogue, last evening presented each alderman present with a leather bound copy of the work, with the name of the official in golden letters on the front cover. ### A GOOD DAY FOR FAVORITES. #### Several Spirited Races at the Smelter City Yesterday. It was a fairly good day for favorites at the Anaconda races yesterday. The first event was the unfinished 2:32 class trot. Billy D. finished Tuesday evening with two heats to his credit, and yesterday it was a foregone conclusion that one heat would decide it. With very little effort Billy came in an easy winner with Antrima second and Freedom third. Time 2:22. The mile and half race for the Copper City stakes, valued at $1.490, was the next event, with the following entries: Batsman and Beaucatcher, Marcus Daly; Expense, Garland and Ramsdell, and Minnie Beach by Randall & Burns. Tom McTague's Emma had been entered, but was scratched. The Daly stable sold at $80 and the field at $23, but the betting was not very lively. The Daly team took the lead and maintained it to the wire, the finish being as follows: Batsman ahead by half a length, Beaucatcher second, Minnie Beach third. Time 2:41. For the Upper Works stakes for three-year-olds the entries were Delbert by H. S. McGowan; Marchioness by C. S Tryon and Carlyle Carne by the Witch Hazel stock farm. In the pools Delbert was the favorite. In the first heat Marchioness broke and Delbert took the lead and held it finishing five lengths ahead with Carlyle second and the Marchioness third. Time, 2:33¼. In the second heat Delbert broke but regained his feet and crossed the wire two lengths ahead of Marchioness. Time 2:32. This gave the race and stakes to Delbert and Marchioness and Carlyle divided second and third money. The running three-quarter mile handicap for a purse of $300 was the next event with the following starters: Gold Bug, Jennie Deane, Zamlock, Arklow, Raindrop, Nettie Glen and Carrie Shaw. Jennie Deane was the favorite and sold at $20. Gold Bug held his own and passed under the wire first with Jennie Deane second and Zamlock third. Time, 1:15¼. Mutuals paid $14.9[9?]. The entries for the 2:24 class, pacing, were: S. B. by Jacob Svenk; Black Cloud by Easton & Jones; Barney by J. Bresluaer; Lady A by W. C. Howelll; Kittatas Ranger by the Witch Hazel farm, and Iras by J. D. Murphy. Ranger was the favorite with Black Cloud second in the pools. Ranger took the lead in the start but at the ⅛ broke and Barney was driven up and at the ½ had the lead. One of the reins on Black Cloud broke and in order to avoid accident his driver jumped to the back of the horse and stopped him. The finish was made: Barney, first; Iras, second; Ranger, third; S. B., fourth. Time 2:23. Mutuals paid $29 85. In the second heat Iras beat Barney by a neck; Barney, second; S. B., third; Lady H. distanced. Time 2:19½. In the third and fourth heats Iras took the lead and held it to the finish. Time 2:22 and 2:25. Mutuals paid $19:85 and $16:50. The result of the race was Iras first money, Barney second and Black Cloud third. The last race was running [¾?] mile for a purse of $300. The starters were: Lark, Midget, Billie Miller, Red Dick, Cyclone, Pearl, Carrie Crooks and Lulu B. Midget was the favorite and won by a length with Lark second and Cyclone third. Time 34½. ### Studying Army Ballooning. One of the officers attached to the United States army and stationed here temporarily, yesterday received a letter from a fellow officer at Fort Riley stating that a number of signal officers from that place would arrive in Montana soon to instruct the soldiers stationed at the western posts in the use of the new army balloon which has been adopted by the war department for taking observations in time of war. The value of the balloon as a place of observation is in this country confined to its actual ascent. In European countries the army balloon is now fitted with a motor of light weight by means of which the balloonists are enabled to make detours above the ground and return again at pleasure, ### Swedes Attention. At an informal meeting of twenty-five or thirty Swedes last Sunday evening it was decided to organize a Swedish republican club. For this purpose a meeting of Swedes will be held at Caplice hall on Friday evening at 8 o'clock. All Swedish republicans in the city are requested to attend. Awarded Highest Honors--World's Fair.
