TROUBLE BREWING.
One of the Water Commissioners Re-
cieves Peculiar Letter ImpIi-
eating City Officials.

Commission and Demands Peform-The
Writer Makes Some Statements Which
Involve officials of the City in What
Seems to Be Great Steal Commission
ers will Investigate the Matter.
The Water Commissioners of the
letter which is causing a great deal of
quiet investigation in the water de-
partment of the city, and it is probable
that some developments will come in
the near future. For reasons of our
own it has been decided wise not to
mention any names in connection with
the matter at the present time.
The letter is addressed to one of the
members of the Water Commission
and reads as follows:
eve will kindly drop you few lines
to tell you that there is going to be
trouble about water. My neighbors
and / are not going to pay for water if
you do not see that the rest of the
neighbors do not pay for some of them
are better off than we are. There is
water in the - flats on Exchange
street with no pay. (Here appears the
name of we'll known alderman -
on Wisconsin street takes water from
a place without pay. Mrs. , Mrs.
, Mrs. -, on Wisconsin and
Maiden Lane. There is a family in
Mrs. ---'s house on Exchange street
that does not pay and Mrs. -, Mrs.

more who do not pay any water tax at
all. think you ought to take it
in hand or it is going before the coun-
Gil or some good hands, poor people
are not going to pay for it all, and as
we are paying large rent there has got
to be something done right away.
Mrs. -- on Maiden Lane near--
who is building new house and --
an alderman has been using water
from the city for the past six years
and has not paid one cent for it. He
ought to be ashamed, all the neighbors
are taking about it and they will be
trouble"
The remainder of the letter is per-
sona1 and is for the use of one the
water commissioners and threatens
trouble if the matter is not looked in to
at once. The letter is an anonymous
one but the facts have been gathered
so carefully that the commissioners
will give some attention to it.

MYSTERY AT MILWAUKEE,.
Nude and Keadless Corpse Taken Out of
the River in That City.

Nude and Readless Corpse Taken Out of
the River in That City.
Milwaukee, Dec. 6.-The nude body
of a headless male corpse was taken
out Of Milwaukee river last night by
a bridge tender near Grand avenue
bridge, and later conveyed to the
morgue. The cause of death is a
mystery. On the feet was a pair of
gray socks and a paid of shoes bearing
the name of a manufacturer of Brock
ton, Mass. There was a hole in the
left shoulder which may possibly have
been made by a bullet.
The body had evidently been in the
water for two weeks, and the head
may have been taken Off by the screw
of one of the many large propellers
which enter this port. The head was
taken off even with the shoulders, be-
ing clean cut as though guillotined. A
man named Max Pfennig, of James
vile, Wis, committed suicide from a
Flint and Pere Marquette steamer two
weeks ago and there is a bare posi-
bility that the corpse may be that Of
PfenniG.
