Mock CHasry.-We have many ard serious com-
pla;nt. against the committees collecting money
and taking the responsibility of dividing the proceeds
among the poor. There is narrow, dirty spirit Of
politics pervading many of these committees, and
others are negligent and careless of their duties. A
case in the 18th ward has been represented to as of
very disreputabe character TO all those concerned.
poor woman, nearly 80 years Of age, IN Amity
street, had been brought before the notice of the
mittee, yetup to Saturday last no relief had been
furnished TO her.
We must investigate the doings of these committees
put 500 into the hands of the general committee.
What has been done with this money? Ought not
the committees TO make return of the that have
been made Of these contributions How do we know
that great abuses do net exist in these vast dsburse
ments? DO they not now exceed $40 000a
