of three hundred dollars in payment for
bis services in accordance with tin* roun
i iiinani* resolution of Monday night. As
Mr Milot's bill was for $350 he refused
the money on the ground that his bill
was not unreasonable and at once turned
th<* case over to an attorney with the
intention of suing the citlv for the full
amount If the bill is not otherwise liqui

on** hundred and fifty eight hours on the (
books and performed services that would
cost the city at least twice the amount j

ov**r the matter has disgusted Milot com- !
