COUNCIL WILL
KEEP LID TIGHT
3k ag way's town council met at
tlie town hall last evening with
Mayor Ashley, Councilmen, Selmer,
Reynoldson, Kennedy, Gutfeld' and
Bunting present, with Town Clerk
Rogers at the table. The usual
monthly bills were read, and all of
them allowed.
Little business outside of routine
matters were handled, and the
city dads took up the question of
raising the Quarantine between
Haines and Fort Seward and Sksg"
W3y, and after considerably discus
sion it wag decided that it would
t>e best to continue the health regu
lations for the time being, at least,
notwithstanding the fact that a re
quesi had 'sen received from the
Cbilknt district city and the military
post, in which the argument was ad
vanced that Skagway was losing
considerably from a financial stand
point by keeping up the bars a
gainst these two points.
The question of meeting the ex
penditures incident to the detention
of transients and travelers came
up, and it was thought that these
would eventually be paid by th.es fed
eral or territroial government, it
w9j admitted by Mayor Ashley, how
ever, that should something come u{
which would prevent the payment
by the government, Skagway wold
Drt holden for the ills.
Town Treasurer Abraham's re
port showed $1798.32 On hand at
time of last report with receipts
sine© that time amounting to $1,
196.60 and disbursements of $1,
737.10 leaving a cash balance ou
band last night of $12-57.82. Therv
is an outstanding warrant amouut
iu^ to $1500 which is drawing ui
terest.
The council adjourned at 9
cl^ok p. tu.
