The Further Investigation Postponed
Awaiting the Exports.

An attempt was made yesterday to
bring about . meeting Of the council COM
mit,ee on the water department. the late
superintendent. w. +. Wilson. and the
experts who examined the books. For
some reason Douglas Ewing and John
Green Kranz. the experts. failed to appear
and nothing could be done A possible
reason is that the experts claim that an
agreement was made to pay them $40 q
day. and their bill has been Gu. down
TO $3.50. Mr.. Wilson has already rendered
about $40 in payment Of an alleged de-
ficiency. but he denies that there is anv
further shortage. except the loss from the
cash drawer on two occasions of S. each.
which he made up from a payment for
material sold.
Unless some arrangement can be made to
secure meeting. the committee will exer.

Forty years ago Chicago had but
sixty brick buildings; twenty years
ego tho city was in ashes; now she
has the largest aggregation of spleu.

in the world. The most thrilling aud
wonderful chapter in the city's history
is the ono telling Of the great fire and
the subsequent rebuilding. 1t reads
almost like a Fairy Sscry. The
magnificent Cyolorama OF the Chicago
Fire IN that o,ty, showing in a most
surprising manner the city during the
great FIRE, with its thousands of
acres Of red hot ruins, thou.
sands more Of surging sea Of
flame, and countless tn, usands OF
panic stricken people fleeing for their
lives, 10 probably the most grand, awe
inspiring. and realistic scene ever pro.
duced by man. The whole effect is
greatly intensified by tho introd o.ion
OF novel, mechanical and electrical
devices, making tho whole situation
seem like reality. The remarkable
exhibition is located upon Michigan
ave, near Madison st., and will re-
main as permanent attraction dur
ing the Worlds Fair. Our readers
