plished. Messrs F. W. Kalbneisch and NJ. Z.
Riggs the subcommittee appointed to invest-
gate the affairs OF the Water Board, had COR
respondence with Mr.. W. A. Fowler, the President

They did not think the action OF the Comms.
sioners was either just or necessary, and
some were uncharitable enough to assert that they
would have had prospect or being retained were
II not for the Investigating committees. Mr. Fow-
ler however, explained tnat they had no more work
for the men, and were, therefore, compelled TO
make the discharge.
