that Mr.. Scott will designate Frank II.

that Melvin W. Winstock will become city
attorney. in place of George H. Fortson.
Mr.. Stewart will appoint George Stone

a member of the house OF delegates, will
at present act as second deputy, and later
take Mr.. Sioneman's place. Miss L.

There is no change in the boards of police,

election.
The salaries Of the officers are as follows:

ration counsel, So. 900; assistant, s., 900; city
attorney, 5000; city clerk, 5000; alder

commissioners receive no coaipe nsation.
All other subordinate officers are ap-
pointed by the heads of departments or
by the mayor with the consent of one or
other of the two houses of the council.
Today one point OF interest will be
whether the aldermen will confirm G.. B.
Young and w. b. BOYD as commissioners
OF the board OF public works, nominated
by Mayor Ronald, or leave appointment
to the new mayor. The vacancies occas-
Toned by the removal of Wolfe and Coch-
ran are being temporarily filled by r. II.

ing as secretary.
Mayor Ronald has made all appoint
ments for the year, except that of comp
troller. whose term is supposed to end in
October. and that of license collector
Salvador Eilicott served last year. and is
now simply holding over. no appointment
10 that place having been made this year,
although the term began January /.
