TOO SLOW AN INQUIRY
GAS INVESTIGATION COMMITTEE HAS
DONE LITTLE IN SIX WEEKS.
Failure to Meet Last Night-Presi-
dent Cooper Came Down to See
About 1t.

There was considerable indignation in the
neighborhood of the Mayors Office last
evening, because the gas investigating
committee did not meet. President Cooper
of the Council; Councilman Allen, of the
committee and Mr.. NJ. B. Wilson, of the
Commercial Club committee, were there.
Mr.. Cooper had heard that the committee
was not getting along very rapidly in their
work and he called to see what was the
matter. He also heard that a certain mem
Der of the Council committee has not at
tended the meetings and he came prepared
to appoint another councilman in his stead.
Mr.. Cooper and Mr.. Allen had not been
notified that the meeting of the gas COM
mittee had been postponed and they wanted
to know by whose authority it was done.
All the information they could gain about
the matter was found in an evening paper,
which stated that owing to the absence of
Smiley Chambers from the city. there would
not be a meeting last night. Mr.. Allen said
if the investigation which was commenced
by the Council had to wait every time a
member of the associate committees was
absent, he was in favor of divorcing the
regular committee from those selected by
the Commercial Club and Board of Trade.
Mr. Allen said if the chairman had author
lied the postponement he had failed to
notify him of such action The committee
has been organized for more than six weeks
and nothing has been done toward making
such investigation as was contemplated
when it was formed.
During the conversation without the
Mayors door, Mr.. Cooper remarked that if
he had been chairman of the investigating
committee, Mr.. John p. Frenzel would NOT
to a Witness under oath. as he did at the
last meeting. Mr.. Allen said he tried to
prevent a general answering of questions,
but he was not chairman of the COM
mittee he could do nothing.

several times and the home players did
not help him to find it. When he became
angry they all began talking to him at
once and the few folks in the bleachers
chimed in. After the third inning, Newell
