TACOMA AGAIN EXCITED.
Mayor Orr Prefers Charges of Crooked
Conduct Against the Local cJW
Service Commission

TACOMA, WASH, Feb. n.-Tacoma has
another municipal sensation. Monday
night Mayor Orr startled the com m unity
by preferring charges against the Civil
|. Service Commission appointed last spring
%by Mayor Fawcett, consisting of Governor
Teats and Richard Bond (fusionists) and
F, Sahm (Republican). alleging that the
commissions examination last spring of
applicants for city positions was conducted
unfairly and that favored applicants were
given copies of the questions two weeks
beforehand.
Tue Council has appointed an investi-
eating committee, which is holding daily
sessions. George Sanderson, a light in
spector, testified to-day that two weeks
before last springs examination John
ToGd gave him answers TO the questions
to be asked, ling him to memoIiZe them
and pass them on to other applicants.
This Sanderson did. He says the ques-
tions asked were the same as on Todd's s
list He answered all he could remem-
Der, but ayera ed only 68, or less than
necessary. Sanderson SAYS Todd told him
he would fix it, and later Sanderson was
informed that his average had been raised
10 49, Todd was then 2 city lineman, and
now resides in San Francisco.
This is a sample of the evidence brought
out 1t is believed by many that the
Council will oust the comm ission, which
Will enable Mayor Orr 10 appoint a new
one. This will result in new examina-
tions and in throwing oct many employees

Sorry Plight of the Crew
of the Steamship
Victoria.
Development of Smallpox on the
Vessel May Isolate Them
All Summer.
NV Cases Reported Daily Among
the Chinese Passengers, Causing
Great Alarm.

PORT TOWNSEND, WASH, Feb. IL
At the rate of development of smallpox
cases at Dimond Point station the past
two weeks, the crew of the steamship
Victoria. running on the Puget Sound
Orient route. is in q fair way to be re-
tanned by the United States quarantine
officials all summer.
Upon arrival OF the vessel at Victoria
some weeks ago, she was subjected to
thorough fumigation and the crew was
detained several days. They were then
sent across TO this side in a special
steamer but DR.. Simpson, United States
quarantine officer here, refused 10 permit
them TO join their vessel at Tacoma until
they had gone through two weeks of quar-
antine.
No case developed until the day prior
to the one on which they would have been
discharged, when smallpox symptoms ap-
peared on one of the Celestials. This re-
suited in another quarantine OF fourteen
days being declared. The time would
have ex jired on Saturday next, but this
morning DR.. Simpson, in making his
rounds found another case among the
sons of the Flowery Kingdom, as conse-
quence of which two weeks more will be
spent at the station. It is the opinion OF
those conversant with the particulars that
more cases will develop from time to
time, in which event the prospects look
fair to a summer isolation of not only
the patients, but the employees OF the
station as well. The force includes

PORT TOWNSEND, WASH, Feb. lit
is learned from a reliable source that the
makeup of the Bering Sea feet this year
will be radically different from any pre-
vious year, the authorities appreciating
the righteousness of the joint patrol be-
tween this country and Great Britain, in
which the major part of the work falls on
the shoulders of Uncle Sam.
Since the patrol was inaugurated this
Government has been called upon to per-
form the greater part of the work. At
first feet of war vessels accompanied the
revenue cutters and assisted in the work
of keeping the sea free from peiagic seal
ers, there being at one time ten frst-class
American craft in the north, while one
anliquated old unsea worthy gun boat rep
resen ted Queen Victoria. Last season
eight revenue vessels patrolied the sea,
UuIle one British vessel went north and
spent most of her time at Sitka, while the
officers went ashore on hunting expedi-
,tions.
As result of this it is said that next
year the United States will send but three
cutters to patrol the waters adjacent to
the seal ISLANDS, the feet to be made up OF
the Rush, Grant and Perry, leaving :he
Bear free to look after the whaling STA

an hour in the commiiiee-rooms at the
City Hall. All the methods of raising
money to aid the needy were discussed.
The Councilmen M ade il plain to the
gentlemen assem- bled that the city's
finances would not permit of any aid from
that source. The street-sweeping propo-
sition submitted by Mayor Snyder was
taken up. but it appeared that this plan
would cost the city about three times the
present cost of streei-sweeping. There
was considerable talk of cutting down the

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Feb. 11-Los
Angeles is to have an exposition building
that will meet the demands of the times
and the size and Importance of the city.
There is need of building suitable for
holding great expositions and taxing care
of large conventions and similar gather
ings. The city is well supplied in the way
of theaters. streetcar lines, churches and
hotels. but there is a demand for a great
building specially built for exposition
purposes This demand is to be met, and
a movement is now on foot to put at least
500, 900 into the project. The hackers of
the project are sucn public-spirited busi-
ness men as w. H. Perry. Max Meyberg,
y. j. Johnson and +. w. Braun and some
others equally interested. The plans have
not yet been matured, but it is the inten.
ton to have the building centrally To-
Gated. Colonel Gray, who so successfully
managed the Home product Exhibition so
recently closed, talks enthusiastically of
the project. and says three is demand
for such a structure, and that it will be
put UP in tie near future.
