RATHER SLOW WORK.


The Ex-S Street superintendent and His
Shortage.
The session of the city council today
will be interesting to say the least. Be-
sides the introduction OF a resolution in
structing the city attorney to begin suit
to recover the amount of Street Super
intendent Watson's shortage by Stew
arts embezzlement, there will probably
be resolution introduced for the pur-
pose of collecting the shortage found in
ex Street Superintendent Hutchinson's 8
hooks.
1t will be remembered that the coun-
Gil employed an expert to investigate
Mr.. Hutchinson's accounts. The ex-
pert reported shortage of s40S5. Then
the council allowed the gentleman time
to 20 over the books and see ii the ap-
parent deficiency could be Strengthened
ont.
He has had his deputy, Frank Bald
win, at work on the books. Mr.. Bald
win reports that he is meeting with
success in accounting for the shortage.
When asked as to what figures could
be given to Justify Mr.. Baldwin's asser-
tions, Mr.. Hutchinson replied that he
knew nothing about the books nor their
condition.
The councilmen were OF the opinion
that it was Mr.. Hutchinson's duty to
know something about the books.
One of the councilmen expressed him
self as being in favor of compelling the
ex official to give reasons for the exist
ing conditions at once, or else stand suit
for the amount.
''This affair, ae well as young Stewart 8
deialcation, is having it's effect, not
only upon the street department, but
upon every city official" said an about
the-city-hall man yesterday. "it's
about time both matters were put cor
reclly before the public and an immedi-
ate settlement forced"

Ho Is Working Up Discontent Among
the sheep Men.
st. Johns Ca. T.) Herald: From a
reliable party we have learned that Mr..
Guervara, the agitator, is still travelling
around the country trying to SOW dis
cord discomfort and anarchical ideas into
the minds OF the more ignorant Mexi-
cans. He visits the different shep-
herds and tells the herders that he is
going to have congress raise the price
of wool; that done, their wages must
60 up, and unless this is done,
they (the herders) may be called on to
fight any day. This fellow is a bad citi-
zen and may be the means OF causing
no end of trouble. Should he succeed
in doing so, OF course the very persons
whom he claims to be working to pene-
fit will be the greatest sufferers. Some
OF the more intelligent and level-headed
MexicaDs should take some steps to
counteract the evil and pernicious in
fluence this fellow is acquiring over the
weak and ignorant among his fsllow
countrymen before it is too late.
