Hon GEORGE g. MUNGER, Chairman OF the Committee OF

Government OF the City Of New York; 8 "
DEAR SIR-l am informed that the resolution under
which the special committee Of which you chairman
is now examining into the operations Of the government
OF this city does not embrace this department II this
be so, both personally and officially regret the omis
sion This department Is 50 intimately connected with
the practical workings Of the other departments Of the
city government that an examination Of them necessa
rally involves TO some extent investigation Of with
out its head or any Of its other officers being present
parties thereto: This rs you will readily per
ceive, might produce unwarranted results Or opin-
portuniiy to explain might have prevented or
would correct. Then, again, il might venture
to make suggestion II would seem TO be almost i'm
possible to obtain thorough insight into city affairs and
the operations Of the government Of this municipality
without examining all the main parts Of which Its ma
chincry is composed c @," ~
Under these circumstances take the liberty Of re-
questing your committee 70 consider this department as
covered by the resolution of tho Senate il that cannot
properly be done that your committee would ask the
Senate 10 adopt supplementary resolution embracing
JOHN E. DEvELIN, Counsel to the Corporation.
The Committee then adjourned until Thursday, Feb
