say tomorrow:
1T was reported yesterday that the
evidnece which has been collected to

that 1t will cause a great commotion
In the city when it is made public.
Ihere Is said to be full information of
the methods by which vice has been
protected by the police and permitted
TO spread into many houses in the dis
trict; how much money has been paid
FOR such protection. and who have been
concerned in the payments. The evil
dence, 1t Is said will not be presented
until formal charges have been sent to

A WORD OF ADVICE.

at is OF the utmost Importance that
no further proceedings should be taken
in this matter unless you are satisfied
that the charges can be sustained.
The Mayor of the greatest city in
America should not be Inundated by
being placed upon trial upon charges
which are groundless. or which cannot
be proven Under all these circum-
stances and in view of the fact that
the charges are made upon information
and belief. and considering the great
expense both to the Mayor and the
State involved in such n trial. l be-
lievo that before q commissioner is
appointed or any further proceedings
taken in this matter you should re-
qure INC petitioners place In
possession of evidence which. standing
alone and undisputed. would justify
the removal of the Mayor

He also admits that during the period
