on the matter as follows:
Il don't know whether i will enter
bail and waive a hearing, or have the
case heard tonight l am going 10
consult with my lawyer and will then
decide. Inis case is beginning to
take a farcical look. the charging OF
these men, Scott, Wilson and Blue
stine being especially so. They arc
all good, honest men, all Of them
above taking bribe."
Detective Seidman when seen yester-
day afternoon, merely remarked that
he had disposed of the warrants and

ment, and that a hearing would prob.
ably take place in the very neal
| future.

ESTIMATES COMMITTEE.
The Department Heads to Explain
Things Tonight.

The joint estimates committee meets
this evening for the second time, and
the various aggrieved heads Of depart
ments who looked with dismay at last
Wednesday evenings ruthless slaugh-
ter OF their estimates will be on hand
to beg for quarter.
An effort is being made to have at
least three or four extra policemen
added to the pay rolls, but this is
practically impossible, as in order to
do 1t it would be necessary to take
out an amount sufficient for their SAL
aries from the estimates Of some other
department already filed down to the
thinness Of a hair.
1t is now a settled matter that the
additional permanent men asked for
will not be allowed as it is a positive
impossibility to secure the money to
pay them.
