SURPRISED AT THE CULTURE OF THE
PEOPLE.
DETROIT, Dec. ia special dispatch
TO the Tribune from Ann ArbOr contains
interesting quotations from letter writ
ten to Mrs. George II. Mead, wife of one
of the Ann Arbor University professors,
bv a member of the family in Hawaii.
Mrs. Mead is a sister to Commissioner
Castle recently sent to Washington with
other representatives OF the Hawaiian
Provisional Government.
This quotation is from the letter: Mrs.
Willis told me herself how overwhelmed
with surprise they were at finding the
community here equal if not far ahead of
any city of it's size in America in culture,
refinement, etc. Why, you have no idea,
she says, of the dense ignorance which
exists in America in regard to these
islands. I told Mr.. Willis that Mrs. Dole
was lady who would grace the White
House quite as well as the lady who now
reigns there, or any other, and that is
saving a good deal. Mr.. Willis said as
much. and more, showing how strongly
he was impressed with the character of
the people in power. He was led to be-
lieve that few of the low class of whites
and 'beach-combers' had done all this

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 19.-The name of
the express messenger who was killed in

says the express car in which Messenger
Richardson was killed was not robbed,
and the company did not lose a cent.
Richardson had a gold watch on him at
the time of the murder, which the rob-
bers did not disturb. The opinion of the
express officials is that Richardson was
either killed by some private enemy, or
that the robbers, after killing him, were
interrupted by the train stopping at Day
ton, which is an unusual thing. The lat
ter view is the most favored. and would
indicate that the murder occurred just
before reaching Dayton.

Il u L.

1t Was Generally Discussed Yes
terday - Chief Runge Compla-
cent.
The report of the investigating COM
mittee OF the affairs of the fire depart
ment was generally discussed yeSter
day. Chief Runge appeared to feel
confident that he would not be obliged
to resign, though he declined to be in
tervieWed on the matter of the report.
He had been advised by his attorney,
he said, to say nothing to the news
papers. Aid. Lackey spoke his mind
freely and did not spare the aldermen
who voted to send the report to the
committee on fire department. He said:
referring the report of the commit
tee to the fire committee Is practically
shelving it." Mr.. Lackey said. las An
delSOn, Rand, Harvey and McAllister
are Runge men, and would stand by
him no matter what charges were
brought against him. l shall not call a
special meeting of the fire committee to
consider the report and l have no idea
but what it will be pigeOn-hOled by them,
and if it ever sees the light again it will
be by demand of the council. My hon.
est judgment is that there are men in
that council whose prejudices are in
hnitely stronger than their honest opin-
ions. If the serious charges that this
report contains are winked at and the
men whitewashed, am content to let
the issue stand till the next election,
satisfied that when all the facts are
know the public will support us in our
attempt to purge the fire department of
its loose and immoral practices. l can
not account for the absence of Aid.
Haynes, except that it is chronic with
him to stay away on all important divis-
ions. For myself, hope l shall ALWAYS
be found having the courage of my con-
victions, no matter who is affected."

INSURANCE MEN MAD.
Runge Has Few Friends Among
Them Now.

ANO"s
The investigating committee repre-
sentlng the city council has had its say
about the fire department. The papers,
which have maintained right along that
the investigation would cut no sort of
a figure with the insurance rates, will
now have an opportunity to print what
the insurance men have to say about the
fire department. The insurance men
held a meeting yesterday afternoon, and
the order of the day was consideration
of the report of the fire department in
veStigating committee. After that re-
port from a council committee, the fire
department and its chief found few
defenders among the insurance men.
1t was the unanimous opinion of the
underwriters, after what the commit
tee had found. that Chief Runge
should be dropped from the posi-
ton he now holds. The Underwriters
association voted to serve formal notice
on the city council that insurance rates
in Minneapolis will be raised much
higher than the universal rating system
will make them unless Chief Runge be
summarily dropped. The Insurance
men mean business. They will not con-
sent to take risks at the old figures
when an investigation reveals such a
state of affairs in the fire department as
has been revealed by the investigation
Of the council committee.
The underwriters also considered
some matters of which they are not
willing to talk much. They had to do
with L. E. Daniel, the manager of the
Underwriters union, under the COM
pact. Not all of the agents are satisfied
with Mr.. Daniels methods. Two or

News From the University
Cases in Court--Pollee
Changes.

The fire department muddle occupled
considerable of the time of the alder
men at the adjourned meeting OF the
council last night. Discussion was the
order of the evening. and some sharp
remarks passed back and forth. The
council decided that the evidence taken
before the investigating committee
should be read entire, and thus consld-
cred, and on MAY an exclusive session
will be held for that purpose. The
members of the committee objected to
such a proceeding, but they were out
voted. 1t is said that the evidence is of
such a nature that the council cannot
help but ask for Chief Runge's resigna-
ton. At any rate, the discharged tire
men feel extremely hopeful.
When the chairman of the investigat-
ing committee (Ald. Cray was ordered
to present to the council the evidence,
he declined. stating that the committee,
having been discharged, he was not the
chairman. His point was upheld by
President Kiichli. He afterwards stated
that, while he wanted to see his report
adopted, he did not want all the evil
dence brought to the detrlment Of the
firemen who had testified. He would
see that the evidence was not fortbcOm-
ing. This remains to be seen, however,
for it is only question Of procedure.
The report of the standing committee
on fire department brought it all about.
The committee recommended that the
entire batch of evidence taken before
the investigating committee be submit
ted to the council for consideration as a
committee on the whole III executive
session. Aid. Miner was against this
proceeding, fer be said it would be VIC
lating the promise made to certain fire.
men witnesses when they testified that
their evidence would not be made pub
lie. Aid. Lackey stated that he thought
it for the best of the city to have it thus
considered, for the reason that the pub
lie was greatly interested. Severe crit
iclsm had been leveled upon the com
mittee's report, and the public should
be given a chance to see for themselves.
Aid. Gray opposed the resolution.
