cerning Hose Purchase.

Sheboygan, Wis, Oct. 10 Special. /
The charge WAS made in open council last
evening that Il deal had existed in the
award of a contract for 1000 feet of hose
1t was also asserted that member of
the board of public works had admitted
that a deal" as he called it. not only
existed i'll this contract. but also in every
contract for hose that the city had ever
awarded. The charge was made by Aid
Dierkmann, who asserted that the hose
purchased was of Il quality inferior to
that offered by other bidders that while
the specifications called for hose of Il
strength of 900 pounds, at the official
test hut 80 pounds pressure had been
used: that IIigbec coupler had been or
dered but had not been furnished. and
that the member of the board of public
works who had said a deal was Oh had
refused to vote on the award of contract.
The charges We're admitted by the board
of public works, except that deal had
existed They claimed in explaining to
the council that they knew nothing of the
hose, that the test was 10 pounds and
that 400 or 500 pounds pressure could not
be had, and that the cOuplcrS had been re
modelled over to the Higbee pattern. The
charge caused Il sensation III the council
and the resolution for the payment Of the
bill was laid over for two weeks. In
the meantime course of action will be

Oshkosh. WIS, Oct. 19.-ISpccial.I-
The reports sent out alleging excitement
and possible lynching in store for VIII
liam Payne. the negro murderer brought
here from Fond du Lac last night for
safekeeping, are much exaggerated
There is no excitement here and the only
crowd that gathered at the Jail was
composed of boys and idlers who We're
attracted by curiosity alone
Adjt.-Gen. Boardman is here at his
home and says ii is foolish to talk of any
trouble or the necessity Of calling out
the militia. He does not think Payne
would have been lynched ut Fond du
Lac, but still thinks it was wise move
to bring him here until the feeling there
died down. Payne. the murderer, is in
