He wanted to know to what extent the
Commissioners were to be allowed 20

Mr.. Mcmillan said the object of this reso-
luton was to allow the Commissioners to
stretch wires to the pension office and to

find themselves In a trap dangerous to life
and limb by the general stretching OF

Mr.. HaIe's Amendments.
Mr.. Hale offered amendments which re-
quired the wires should be overhead" and
should be connected with the nearest exist.

Suffering Among the Poor Con-
tinuss Today.
MONEY ALMOST EXHAUSTED
All Arrangements Progressing tor
the Big Concert.
SOME RTICIPA Mt S

The police charity fund is again ex-
hausted, today's donations having fallen
far short Of what was contributed Friday
and Saturday. This morning each of the
nine police lieutenants was allowed SO, in
addition to the bread and fuel on hand, and
before noon some Of the lieutenants re-
ported that their allowance had been ex
pended. Chief Clerk Sylvester had many
callers today who were in need among
them many women, who wanted money for
rent. in order that they might not be
elected from their homes. But the chief
clerk did not have any money to give, and
all he could do was to refer them to charity
organizations. Since Saturday the police
have found a number of poor families who
were in need, but had not asked for relief.
In South Washington Policemen Peck and
Snyder found a family. consisting of
mother and father and six children. There
was sickness in the family, and none Of the
necessaries Of life were found in the house.
There was not even a fire in there, and the
TWO officers took money from their own
pockets and relieved them. This afternoon
scores Of poor people are calling at the
police stations. but the police in most Of
the precincts had nothing to give them,
and unless they are able to get something
from some other source they will have to
go hungry.
