Commissioner Paige Says the Beard Will Not Drop Its nvesti

The Democrat was informed this
afternoon by City Commissioner
Paige that the investigation under
taken by the Board Of City Commits
sioners when the intended robbery of
the Peoples Savings Bank for grand
stand effect was made public will not
be dropped until the Commissioners
get to the bottom of the affair.
''In the light of results" said Mr..
Paige, 1--WE are not surprised that this
deal should have been planned. But
the Commissioners want to know the
facts, and to this end men are now
working on the case to locate the re-
sponsibility, if any there is. 1t leaves
a very bad impression abroad for Off
GERS to make or tolerate grand stand
plays at the expense of Akron's bus
mess houses; and besides am inform
ed that many local business men are
indignant in reference to the natter"

Commissioner Paige is well pleased
with the manner in which the force
has been recognized, and while it
carries no additional expense to the
taxpayers, he feels assured that when
Council finds out that the Commits.
sioners want to do the right thing in
improving the police force it will pro-
vide the means with which to pay the
new officers what their services are
worth. The Captain and Lieutenant
will receive the same salaries as po.
licemen.
In todays appointments political
honors are equally divided. Chief
Durkin and Detective Dunn are
Democrats; Captain Outlet and Lieu
tenant Greenlese are Republicans.
The duties of the Captain and Lieu
tenant will be to act as roundsmen
or general oyerseers to the work of
the force. They will alternate each
week between day and night duty.

Council Defeated the Reorganization 0rdnanCeMessrs Fe
beger and Mchlien CIashed--LiveIy Session.

The ordinance providing for the re-
organization of the police force was
lost by a tie vote at Monday nights
session of the City Council. The
measure was defeated after lengthy
debate that called out the sharpest in
vective and biterest irony.
When the report of the Police COM
mittee was called for by the clerk,
Chairman Merz reported adverse to the
ordinance. He said he could not re-
port favorable to the measure when
the city has no money to pay the extra
salaries. He said the police force was
in good shape and contained brave and
worthy officers.
The report was concurred in by Mr..
Koons, who, in the discussion to fol-
low, became the leader of the oppo-
sition.
Mr.. Mason made minority report in
favor of the ordinance. Mr.. Markle
moved the adoption of the minority
report. 1t was seconded by Mr., Brady.
When the vote was taken the men,

days leave Of absence, for which he
has applied that he may recuperate
his health before taking his office. The
new Chief will do all in his power to
make the Akron Police force second to

Nays-Brown, Fiebeger, Merz, Paul,
Pislie Koons.
The motion was declared lost
In speaking against the ordinance,
Mr.. Koons said:
I'VE have gone deep into the matter
in our investigation and study of the
proposed ordinance. If we create two
new offices we will create an extra eX-
pense of $1,000. There is no money in
sight to meet this increased expense.
The second objection / have to the
measure is that we do not care to be
used as Il cats paw for the benet OF
the Commissioners and those back of
them. These offices are proposed to
serve somebody's political ambition
and furnish an office to all who have
been promised places. If we are to
serve the best interests of the citizens
we should eliminate politics from the
office of Chief of Police. If the Com
missioners can not agree upon a man
for Chief, then l am in favor of re-
vising the ordinance re-creatng the
Office of City Marshal. / believe that
we can show that political trickery has
been going on. Our police fund is
badly overdrawn. Our police force is
running smoothly and after this furry
is over it will be all right"
Mr.. Brady took exceptions to the
remarks of Mr.. Koons. He said that
the Council had attempted to re-create
the office of City Marshal and the
measure was defeated.
while l am on record as voting
against the expenditure of money and
stand for economy, yet | think the best
way out of the present difficulty is to
pass this ordinance. AS I understand
it, the added expense will only be
about $3.50, If it is later shown that
political trickery, as Mr.. Koons says,
is back of the deal, we can re-estahlish
the City Marshalship"
Mr.. Paul stated that he knew but
little about the police question. Per.
sonally he said he could not see any
necessity of more officers However,
if $3.50 would be the limit OF additional
expense he was inclined to vote for the
ordinance.
However" said Mr., Paul ~ cannot
see where this will lead us. The pop.
ulation of Akron increased nearly &C
per cent in the last ten years while the
tax duplicate shows but slight increase

MATCH
With Henry Lyons.
1t May be Cancelled by
Art Simms.

The Youngstown Athletic club tele-
graphed Art Simms Monday offering
him purse to meet Oscar Gardner
in that city at the next show given by
the organization. Simms has not de-
cided whether he will accept or not.
II has been decided to drop the pro-
ject for special train to Canton in
connection with the Simms- -Finnerty
contest Thursday night. The Valley
road insisted ON guarantee of 200
passengers. a special rate of % cents
for the round trip will be made.
Tickets will be good on the tral
leaving this city at 4:55 pm. The
return trip can be made on the early
morning train. Simms is in good con-
dition for the match. He has recov,
cred remarkably well from the effects
of his contest with Leonard. 1t is n
question whether he will meet Henry
Lyons at Chicago, Dec. 13. Unless
he finds himself in the best condition
he will cancel the engagement. Lyons
is hard game for any one and Simms
realizes that he must be in tip top
shape to go up against such man.

do what she attempted to do in 1895. when a Russian combine stopped her.
 The United States certainly will not re- sist an advance in force on the part of Japan, for what the United States first desires is the rescue of American lives. After that she desires to secure by nego- tiation the open door. Japan can be trusted in both cases. Russia cannot. The Emperor Williams play to the galler- ies at Wilhelmshaven is meaningless, for Germany has no troops at hand, and is not preparing to send a large force to plant the German flag on the walls of Pekin. If 1t is planted there in the immediate fu- ture it will be done through the aid of Japanese army and the German Emperor did not mention Japan, or for that matter America, in his speech He demanded. however, exemplary punishment and vengeance, and he proposes, it seems, to assail China's flag He is plainly at war with China. He has the power to declare war, and if his words are made good China and Germany are at war. But the dispatch of a detachment of German ma rines is not very serious war.
 There is, however to be seen in the speech of the German Emperor a determ- nation that looks toward dismemberment His vengeance means a "sphere of influ- ence." His exemplary punishment means more ports and land. The peace he would dictate means more Germany and less China. Such a programme will assist Rus sia and France in their designs, but it will not assist the other powers, least of all America. This country has not, and cannot well have, anything in common with Russia.

GEN. PETrUs' SEAT
From the Mobile News.

From the Mobile News.
 We don't know whether, in the event of a vacancy during Colonel Samford's term as Governor, he would appoint Colonel Oates. We don't know what Colonel Oates has done for Colonel Sanford that according to the eternal fitness of things would compel the latter to appoint the former. No doubt when Colonel Oates withdrew from the Senatorial race he was promised the support of certain prominent gentlemen at some future time, but we do not under stand how his withdrawal benefited Col onel Sanford in his race for the Governor ship, nor do we believe that Colonel Sam ford was party to any bargain. How ever, if General Pettus decides not to run for a second term, Colonel Oates will have some strong competitors in the race. It would not be surprising if this corner of Alabama should be represented in the race by one of the most popular men in the state.

CONTESTS SETTLED
 IN QUICK ORDER

Kansas City, Mo-, July 1.-The commit tee on credentials made quick work of the contests. They assembled at the Kansas City Club, and Edward Gray of Texas was made chairman.
 The only hearing given was to the Dis trict of Columbia, and the committee de- cided to admit both delegations with half vote each. When the Indian Territory case was reached, Chairman Gray called out: Sheriff bring in the Indian Territory con- testing delegations; search them and take away their Knives and pistols, and then give them the gloves" Each delegation was seated with half a vote
 The greatest interest centered on the Montana case, and as soon as 1t was called motion was made to ratify the action of the national committed and seat the Clark delegation, a substitute to give each side a hearing being defeated by a vote of B to B, and the Clark delegation was seated without division.
 The klahoma contestants were given half a vote each, although there was protest from both factions. Two New York men, Forest and Mahoney, representing what they said were "the Bryan Democracy Of New York" wanted hearing.
 The Oklahoma contestants were given half was a row. The New York men and the Oklahoma men began speaking. The crowd surged in, mounted chairs and pushed up around the chairs Mahoney made himself chairman and attempted to secure order. An attempt was made to get the dissatis- fled element from all States and Territories to organize a protest and submit minority report to the convention. Finally Mahoney got order long enough to make a speecI> denouncing Hill, Murphy and Van Wyck, and the Democrats who supported them. Soon there was pandemonium and the side meeting terminated.
