Aid. Ross wanted to have the firm OF
Pope x Perrin, for the reason that the
committe had recommended them.
1 Aid. NorQUist wanted 10 know why
/ Ma nwaring & Cooke, reputable attor-
neys, who seIst in q cheaper offer,
should not be employed, and asked Aid
Ross To answer.
Aid. Ross was only too ready to ans
wer Aid. NorqIst, and in doing so made
a severe attack on Manwaring & Cooke
and also on Aid. Johnston. He said
. TIE senior alderman from the second
ward went around like the character IN
Pilgrims Progress, who was SO busy
digging in the muck that he could not
see the golden crown that was offered
him. Aid. Johnston discovered Man
waring & Cooke in all their glory. To
underbid another attorney is something
which no reputible attorney is obliged
to do. and something v hich no reputa
ble attorney does do"
Aid. Johhston: Il believe ! struck
below the fifth rib. believe that here
was a certain ring in this council to en-
ploy certain firm Of attorneys. l de-
sired to bust the ring"
Aid. Bertrand: Il belong TO no ring.

The city attorney was asked if he had
any objection to being assisted by Pope
4 Perrin, and upon replying no, vote
+ was taken and the motion Of Aid. Green
passed by vote Of l. to !, Aid Johns
/ ton casting the only negative voice.
: AID. Green next received recognition
/ and asked the stenographer if certain
] charges mad not been filed against chief
/ Luton at the last meeting Of the coun-
/ Gil. He was informed that they were
not read by the clerk. He then moved
! that the charges against Chief Of Police
/ Luton be taken up. Aid. Norquist
moved as an amendment that the coun-
Gil adjourn. a viye yoce vote was taken
and the mayor declared the council adj
! journed.
Aid. Green considers that his motion
TO take up the charges is virtually be
ginning Of the investigation, and that
consequently the charges will not
expire by the ten days limitation, az
did the same charges on former oc-
Ca.lOn.
