Mr.. MADIGAN's CHARGE AGAINST COLLECTOR


COOK.
Last evening the District Commissioners re-
piled to Mr.. Frank p. Madigan, who some days
ago filed charges against Collector Cook, alleg-
ing that Mr.. Cook had been discOurteous to
him in his official intercourse, bluffiy DENYING
the use of an assessment book, etc. The Com
missioners say: referring to yours OF Sd inst,
preferrng charges of discourtesy against the col
lector of taxes, l am directed to inform you that
Mr.. Cook has filed an answer explaining the
matter complained OF, which can be seen by
you. II it Is not satisfactory, and you wish a
further hearing, it will be accorded"
LIEUT.. ARNOLD EXoNERATED.
Lieut.. Arnold, Of the fifth police precinct, has
answered the charges preferred against him by
Mr.. James p. Hambleton. Major Dye yesterday
forwarded the lieutenants answer to the Com.
missioners, with the following Endorsement:
Il have personally investigated this case, and
feel satisfied that Lieut.. Arnold has done only
his duty in the matter complained of. He de-
MES of course, all the material allegations in
the complaint, and certainly intended no
wrong. He is jealous and fearless In the dis
charge of his duty, and my judgment and
instincts lead me TO give him full support and
encouragement SO long as he keeps within the
bounds of his duty. i do not think that the
public interests demand any further action In
this case"
