Barberton, Aug. 9.-Mayor e. M.
Buel called special meeting of the
Council Friday evening, to take up
the police question, as he expected
to leave the city for couple Of weeks
and it was necessary to take some ac-
ton toward securing police protection
before he left, All the members were
present. except Mr.. Prentice, and, i'm
mediately after assembling, went into
secret session which lasted for an
hour.
Among other things stated in let
ter. from Mayor Buel which the Clerk
read, was that 1t seemed to be the
consensus of opinion among the mer-
chants and others that Barberton
should have not less than four officers
beside the Marshal and Officer Cotton.
The letter also stated that though there
had been rumors of friction between
the Mayor and Council, the Mayor
trusted no attention would be paid
to them by the Council. ''There is no
friction between the Mayor and your
body and, during my term of office,
there will be none," he said.
Mr.. Morton made motion that the
Mayor be authorized to appoint four
deputy ,Marshals to serve until the
resolution is repealed, at salary of
$50 a month to be paid out of the gen.
eral fund.
Mr.. McCarty, after making several
objections to the motion read half a
dozen sections of law trying to show
that the action contemplated was IL

legal.
Mr.. McCarty evinced considerable
feeling and said. II have been crit
icised and unjustly criticised for the
stand have taken in this matter,
when l only want the law complied
with I've been called windy it has
been said that have no nerve and
no sand Why, gentlemen, it is not
question of nerve or sand, it is SIM
ply question of doing things in the
right way"
Mr.. Mccoy said that If he voted for
the resolution providing for four spe-
cial officers he wanted some assurance
that the officers would be changed
about a bit and placed differently
than at present.
1t was the opinion of Mr.. Taylor
that the Mayor would place the off,
GERS to suit himself and when the
NIdTSudl WUS Cdlltu VII lOI an Oplu-
ion he replied that he washed his
hands of the whole affair. 1--WE been
told that l have nothing to do with
this matter" said he, "and refuse
to say anything. If the Mayor places
the officers, all right. If the Council
does it, all righ,. 1t is all the same to
me-"
| After considerable more discussion
the resolution authorizing the Mayor
to appoint four special officers was
passed.
The Mayor, who was not present at
the present at the Council meeting
was then notified and he Immediately
appointed the entire force of officers
which was suspended from duty.

DIR. G. H. Whipple cut his finger
slightly with glass and a few days
later performed surgical operation,
which poisoned his wounded finger
and since then the physician has
been in bad way. Last week he
