NO new CHIEF APPOINTED
FIRE BOARD NET BUT TOOK NO
VERY IMPORTANT ACTION.

A meeting of the board of fire com
missioners was held last evening, but
no action relatiVe,4to the appointment of
a successor to Chief Hart N, Cook
was taken. The absence of President
Warner and Commissioner Tostevin
found only a bare quorum present and
this precluded any probability Of snap
action.
President Warner, through Vive Presi-
dent Schweizer, announced his commit
tees for the year 1901, as follows: Ma
chinery-CIarkin, Schweizer, Tostevin.
Building w. Clark, Clarkin
1forses-Tostevfny Ciarkin. Schweizer

/. The only business of Importance trans
acted was the passage of bills amounting
to $66350 and the approval of the De-
cember pay roll amounting to $13,863. Al.
One of the perquisites that go with the
office of fire commissioner is a free tele-
phone and this matter the secretary
was instructed to have attended to. The
retiring commissioners have had their
phones removed.
The fire chief appointment is assum-
ing an aspect similar to the senatorial
situation and while limited in its scope,
an absorbing topic of conversa-
tIon among the department and those in
terested.5 Assistant Chief Strapp and
former Chief Jackson are the contestants
and the rivalry between them is so close
that the selection of a dark horse would
not be surprising. Friends of the two
officials named are working industriously
and every effort is being made to land
the prize. a~:vv .9--'

Mr.. Eckles has also had much expe-
r1ence in association work. He is now
the president of the Chicago association.
Word has been received to the effect that

that he may be present.
Mr.. Morse helped organize the New

BELL 5 CASE IS N COURT
JUDGE JAGGARD is HEARING THAT
quo WARRANTO
CASE
CONSTITUTING THE CHARTER
1t Is Claimed That New Charter Did
Not Affect Civic Officials
When 1t Went Into
Eject.

Judge Jaggard, Of the district court,
yesterday took under Amusement the quo
Michael j. Moriarty. The plaintiff ques-
tons the right of the defendant to his
seat in the board of aldermen. The first
question involved was the construction
of the new city charter, and the second
question was: whether or not Bell
could assert his right to the Office at this
done So"
The case did not attract many listeners,
and was carefully tried
When the arguments were finished yes
terday afternoon, Judge Jaggard intimat-
cd that the abstract question of construc-
ton was less perplexing than it would
nave been. if it were not for the testi-
mony as to the abandonment. The court
further 1ntimated that the fact that Mr.
Bell had acted under mistake of law
IN such abandonment and acquiescence
olq not remove the waiver on his part. .
The morning was spent by Attorney
Hunt in arguing Mr.. Bells side of the
case His principal contention was that
the charter was adopted at the same cleo
ton when the new officers were elected;
that the charter in effect, abolished the
offices, and that the officers then acting
claimed that the new charter repealed
the old charter June !, and, inasmuch
as MQr1arty's term did not begin until
June D, the office was abolished, and he
Mr.. Hunt read section 16, chapter g. of
the new charter in support of his state
menus IN regard to the construction of
the charter. The section reads as fol-
lows: Nothing in this charter shall be
construed to supersede any officer or
omcers Of said city, now acting by vir-
tue of the laws under which said city
is Incorporated and any such officer
or officers shall continue in office as
heretofore until his Or their term of
once shall expire, except as otherwise
expressly provided for in this charter
Attorney j. c. Michaels, in arguing the
case for Aid. Moriarty, cited a number
of supreme court decisions from several
states. Mr.. Michaels laid great stress on
section IA, of chapter 60, Of the new city
charter, which reads as follows:
All provisions of law now in force
and which are also contained in this char
ter shall be regarded as being continued
IN force, and all provisions of law now in
force which are changed, modified or
amended shall be regarded as continued
In force as so changed, modified or
amended
Mr.. Michaels conteuded that this sec
tanned in the new charter, should be re-
gsrded as a continuance in form, and
everything in the old charter relating
to the common council is brought over
into the new charter almost word for
word. Mr.. Michaels also read several
otter sections from the new charter to
pack up his arguments, and incidently
brought out the fact that Mr. Bell had
adyertised in the West Side Broad Ak
Bell. Further Mr.. Michaels claimed
that Mr.. Bell had delivered up the KEY
70 MS desk In the council chamber on
the day of the inauguration, and had
never made any claim to the Office until
ne commenced the proceedings.

WILL not REDUCE BOND
SURETY COMPANY WOULD LIKE TO
DROP Il. r. CONROY.

The assembly committee on ways and
means at their meeting yesterday after
noon refused to take immediate action
on the petition of II. F. Conroy, clerk
of the municipal court, to be relieved
of a surety bond for $4,000 and substitute
personal one in the sum Of $1,000.
Mr.. Conroy rendered his resignation
some time ago to take effect the first
bf March and in view of this fact
it is possible that the request to sub
stitute will be refused.
Owing to Conroys failure to observe
the city charter in respect to making re-
turns at the prescribed time, the. United
States Fidelity Bond company has been
making strenuous efforts to be relieved
1t was refused unless charges were nre.
TERED, and it is this that forms the
basis of the present request. Mr.. Con-
pay claims that by the change he will
save about $50.

The first line the doctor set himself, the
second was set by the foreman, just to
show the doctor how to start, and the
last line was the doctors finish. AS the
clock struck II and several of the boys
filed out of the composing room to get
their customary "arbeiter," the doctor
laid down the composing stick, all cover
ed with PRESENTATION, and remarked:
why, anyone can pick them things up
and put them in place, but they won't
stay there, and I can tell you fellows
that if 1 had been in the business as
long as some of you have would invent
a better scheme to hold the type than
that thing you call a stick. Why, hell's
bells, that thing don't look any more
like stick than the dissecting knife of
a surgeon, and
By the way, Mr.. Foreman, how much
have l earned by my honest toil?'
The foreman carefully measured the
"dupe," and handed the doctor an order
for .0002. The doctor looked long, and
then, with an rs that ALP he went sad
ly away to muse over the large salaries
earned by printers.
