very materially reduced. At present

salary roll aggregates $685. 1t will be
necessary to deduct Is per cent from

per cent will be tackled on to the Janu-
airy checks, and it will be taken from
the next years appropriation. For the
past five years the police appropriation
has been too small for the needs of the
force, and, although each year has seen
a shortage, the council has steadily re-
fused to allow an increased opropria-
ton. In past years, however, the de-
partment has been allowed to draw from
the funds left over from the general ap-
preparation and has thus paid salaries in
