Galveston, Texas, February 2s--The spe-

tomorrow evening will be one of more
than ordinary interest as the report of
the budget committee will then be heard
and acted upon. The committee, which
has been actively al work for some time
has concluded Its labors and the appro-
priations and recommendations determined
upon will probably be adopted without
dissent as the budget committee is SUBJ
stantially a committee of the whole. The
meetings of the committee have been
private, but Il good deal has leaked out
among the most important being an ap-
propriation of $4,000 for the purchase of
two garbage furnaces one to be located
