Tacoma now proposes 10 help Seattle IN
the project TO make a waterway from Lake

A TRUCE IN POLICE COMMISSION.
Cheasty and NiEgIe Awaiting Phelps
Aetisn-The Probable Course.

Action Probable Course.
There VAS sort Of truce yesterday in
the police commission trouble, as Mayor
Phelps attended the funeral services over
the remains of his former friend, Levi r.
Compton. Commissioners Cheasty and
Siggie received congratulations from their
friends over the outcome of the case in
Judge Langiey's court, but they are still
waiting for the mayor to act. and the lat
ter is expected 70 take further steps today
or tomorrow.
"What are you going to do nov - asked
. PosI-ISrKLIaENcKR reporter of Mr..
Niggls.
THAT depends on what the mayor
does" was his reply.
"Will you resign IL he asks you again %
81 don't know about that
IF the mayor files charges similar 10
those by which be tried Co remove you.
will you fight them in the Investigation ?"
s'Most sssuredty. Now want TO say
here that am Republican and through
this matter have said very little. | intend
20 remain in the Republican ranks. but If
I am brought up on those charges | will
fight them. because they do me a great in
justice. Mr.. Chesssy will do likewise"
MIR. Cheasty said he Was not in posi-
tion where be could say that the mayor
would be requested 10 call q meeting OF the
police commissioners. tie Was inclined to
wait short time To see what the mayor
would Do.
Mayor Phelps last night said he was not
prepared 10 announce hls course OF sction,
but il is safe 10 say that he knoNs what he
will do. aud that the matter stll come to a
head within twenty-fogr hours. Some are
under the impression that the Chsasty
case will he appealed and that the charges
will be filed against Commissioners Niggle.
