Renominntcd.


Mayor Hunter OF Brooklyn is out with a
statement in answer to the numerous criticisms
on his course in appointing W. A. Fowler IA Com
missioner Of City Works, in which he says:
In tho matter ot appointments mistakes have
been made. ! allude particularly to the cas-. OF
person whose retirement from Official position
sincerely Thought the public good demanded.
Acting upon tins conviction, declined to name
him a. one OF the COInmIssiO OneTs OF the DEPART
ment OF CITY Works. The gentleman named as
hls successor was promptly rejected, and word
WAS promptly gwen that all future nominations
should share the same fate. This unseemly stnte
ofthlnRs was continued for many weeks No
removals could tike place, as the incumbent,
