AT The CITY HALL.
SERIOUS CHARGES AGAINST
OFFICER McCABE.
The Experts Want Their Pay-Big
Docket IN the City Court-Build-
ings to be Erected and Gen
erald City Building Notes.

DIR. Walton and Mr.. Koch, the
druggist, repaired to the police
station Saturday afternoon and
asked to make an affidavit against
a violatOr of the city ordinances.
officer McCabe was on duty as
clerk of the station and informed
the visitors that all offices We're
closed on account of the Nolksfest
celebration. What conversation
was then INDUCED in could not
be learned, but the result is
that the visitors have preferred
charges against Mr.. McCabe,
alleging gross insults, and profani-
ty, used without the slightest pro-
vocation.
\ LIGHT reporter investigated
the matter this morning and was
informed that one of the visitors
was under the influence of drink,
and that Officer McCabe did only
his duty as peace officer. He
has been in the employe of the
city for number of years and is a
sober, industrious and obedient
officer and it is believed that his
actions, whatever they might
have been, will be sustained by
the police committee.
THEY WANT THEIR PAY.
Walter Scott and w. C. Peters,
employed by the city council to
examine and report on the Garrett
son garbage crematory, have filed
petitions with the city clerk asking
that they be paid for their work,
each sending in bill of 500, for
three or four days work. In all
probabilities some of the council
men will object to these large
amounts, and one of those tongue
combats will perhaps take place.
