averaged up a little stronger. All the pack

result everything was disposed OF In good

nation occurred the chief of police ad-
 vised the doorman to resign and he
 would be reappointed at the increased
 salary. The payrolls and the usual
 bills were then approved, after which a callman was balloted for. John J.
 Kelly received three votes, James
 Hayes 1 and Joseph Begnal l. Then
 began the battle of bouquets. It was opened by the mayor. He said in eff
 feet that of all the boards of safety since the operation of the charter that
 called for such an organization, the present one was the most successful.
 It had accomplished what other boards
 had failed in. It had given to the de partment of police q signal system,
 and if it had patrol wagon it would
 be fully equipped. The relations that
 existed between the departments of
 fire and police and the board were
 dwelt upon, and the course of the
 mayors remarks was defiance hurled
 in the teeth of those who dared criti-

 thanked the board for it's services; he thanked the chief of police and the chief of the fire department. Where upon Commissioner Kleinecke, who can turn compliment with the next man, fired back. Then Chief Snagg. not to be outdone in the complimentary assault, threw Sit into" the mayor and the whole board, covering them with
 laurels and confusion. Chief Egan fol
 lowed. He was more eloquent than
 the fireman. Policemen always are
 any way, and it would not do for the
 head of the cops to be outdone by the
 head of the fire boys. The chief of
 police said that he saw nothing but
 works and things worthy of admira . tion in the conduct of the board and
 his relations with it's Individual mem
 bers. Officially what was his was also |; the boards, and what was the boards
 was the boards, and that settled it If he was treated fairly and square1J by the board it was natural, for in al
 his official career he had never met s6 , many well balanced and square mind ed men. On the other hand. if he hat A treated the board squarely he had done , only what was his duty, and that set , tied that He was grateful for tn,
 compliment and the words of Kindness 3 spoken by the mayor for the depart l ment. He tried to do his duty by tn, 5d department and that was all that coul6 oI be expected of any man. The depart \ ment was as efficient as he wished i 1 to be and tried to make it, and he wa

BOARD OF PUBLIC SAFETY
Finished Up All Business and Passed
 Out Compliments.

Out Compliments.
 The meeting of the board of safety, which was held last evening, was the final one of that organization, and it might well be called battle of bou- quets. Every member of the board was present, in order, possibly, to get his share of the floral honors, and Mayor Kilduff presided. Only routine business was transacted. The charge against Callman James Courtney for being absent from duty was disposed of in the usual way and the usual fine, $2, was imposed. Courtney explained that the trouble or the difficulty that resulted in his being absent from duty did not rest with him but with the fire alarm, which was not loud enough to rouse him from his sleep.
 1t was with some surprise that the board heard the resignation of Edwin R. Lyons, engineer of steamer No l. MT Lyons has been in the service of the department quite a number of l years, about twenty. While there was nothing for the board to do but accept the resignation, nothing was said in reply to the reading of the paper for q few minutes. Then Chief Snagg stated that MT Lyons had been ten dered charge of q department in tIe Scovill Manufacturing Go and that this would require his entire time. Ii being better position than that of en gineer in the fire department he ha6 decided to accept it. hence his resigna ton. Chief Snagg closed with a gool record of Mir Lyons. The resignation was then accepted
 O Fad A wis had been off duty since Novembel 25 on account of having contracted { severe cold while at a fire and bron chitis following as a result. It wa! suggested that the mans name be re tained on the payroll. This evoked some discussion. Mayor Kilduff sait 1t would not be q good thing to estab fish such precedent by following th, suggestion of the chief.

Eoroner's Jury In HaIIenbeck Case
 Holds FOu9 Nephews.
 HUDSON, N. Y., Jan. 1.-Columbia county never witnessed such scene as was presented last night in the county courthouse at the inquiry into the death of Peter A. Hallenbeck of Ereenport, who was murdered Christ mas eve, when the three Van Wormer brothers and Harvey Bruce were brought into the courtroom ill charge of Sheriff Best and Chief of Police Lane to hear the charge of murder in the first degree read to them. The building was densely packed with spectators, who struggled frantically to get a glimpse of the prisoners. In their efforts to see them they jumped on the back of the heavy oak benches, which gave way with crash under fhem, causing great confusion.
 The reading of the testimony of former witnesses and the getting of their signatures went on all day and until after 9 o'clock at night, when Coroner Lisk directed the four prison efs brought in. They bore well the strain of confinement and appeared lit- fle concerned about the terrible posi- Dtion they are in. The coroner read his findings and committed all four to the rare of the sheriff on the charge of murder in the first degree for killing Peter A. Hallenbeck. All waived ex- animation and entered pleas of not guilty.
 1t was confidently expected that at least some portion of the confession of Harvey Bruce would be disclosed, but the district attorney and coroner positively refused to let any part of it be made public.
 |, The grand jury will act Jan. 13 in hthe case, and the trial will probably 8ake place in May.
