making the reduction Is Instead Of 10 per cent.
Aid. Cullsrton also renewed lila amendment,
which was pending when the Council adjourned,
to reduce tho payroll 10 per cent, etc.
Aid. Lawlcr suggested that the Ease Of the
shooting Of tho policeman should go long why
IN the direction Of inducing them to reject tho

ture Of policcman's life, and contenacd that
any cutting down In bis pay would be gross IN
Justice. .....

nance In tlle hanlls OF the Clerk arranging the
totaEs Of the proposed reduction, Which would
b probably pissed upon after the report under
