CHARLES BUsHONG's DELUsION.
Imaeines that He Is still I'm the City's
EmnIOy.

Charles Bushong, who was sprinkling in
Epector under the Sullivan administration,
reported to Clerk jefferson, Of the Bureau
of Assessment, yesterday. and said he was
ready to go to work. Mr.. jefferson refused
to recognize Bushong employe of the
city, for the Board of Works. that is the
late board, ordered the Democratic inspec-
tors removal. There We're many complaints
received of streets being improperly cleaned
and sprnkled while Bushong was inspector,
and one or the first acts of the present adj
ministration to discharge him. He has
always claimed, however, that he has never
been legally discharged, and he has reported
several times for duty. Yesterday he said
he was acting under the advice Of an at
torney.
He claims that the board could net dis
charge him, according to the charter, with
out giving him hearing and without maxi
ing statement of the charges against him.
The old board never gave him any reasons
for his removal. Mr.. Bushong claims pay
for all the time since he was removed, and
he proposes to begin action against the
city before the present administration goes
out. Notice of his discharge was served in
November, 1893, and he claims compensation
at the rate of 800 month for all the time
since then.
