Eleven-page report of the Committee on Fire and Water to the Mayor and the Common Council recommending the requests of the Chamber of Commerce concerning the water supply be rejected. The Committee was critical of Judge Lewis and presented a history of water supply issues in the City. The Committee also discussed how hard the current Council had worked. "There is hardly a member who has not devoted a very large portion of his time and ability to the duties of his office. The members have in addition to their strictly legislative duties done all the work which will become the duty of the various board being provided in the new charter.

This council has done more real work during the past year than all the preceding Councils put together."
