with the law under which Capt Morris

it might be expediant to make full

be submitted to the people for de-

The second annual convention of the
National Street Lighting association
will take place at Columbus, O., the
latter part of this month, and the
deliberations Of the body would result
in additional light being thrown on
this important question. This conVen-

other indication of the great interest
being manifested upon the problem.
and the committee and the council
might reap additional benefit from the
deliberations of this convention.
A meeting of the committee at which
the matter will be brought UP as out
lined, will be held within the next
week. The committee at that time
will determine as to the character and
nature of the bids to be advertised for
and settle the question of having the

The written letter was handed to Chief
Goss yesterday morning, and accom-
panying the same was the star which
Gruber has been wearing. The resig-
nation was transmitted to Mayor
Doran and at once accepted. No time
was lost by the mayor in filling the
vacancy, and Frank Anderson, a resi-
dent of the Third ward, was appoint
ed as patrOlman. This is thought to
mean that one of the members of the
department will be promoted to the
vacancy caused by the retirment of
Gruber.
Mayor Doran, when asked yesterday
afternoon, if he had selected the new
detective, said he had not fully de-
cided on the appointee, but it would
be a member of the department, and
he added that there was plenty OF
excellent timber from which to make
the. selection. The action of Detective
Gruber, the mayor believed, would be
for the good of the service. Among
those who are looking for chance to
fill the vacancy are James Y. Werlich,
George w. Wells, and M. F. Halo.

James Y. Werrick would be. the one
to get the place.

the central police station yesterday, as
to the decapitation of a couple of the

that the person to be appointed to
succeed Gruber will be promoted from
the ranks, and that he will not be an
outsider"
AS to just when the name of the new
detective would be handed out the
mayor was not prepared to say, but
it would be within a day or so.
