AS will be seen from the above vote
by which the Minor resolution was killed
in the Common Council last night, there
will be no investigation into the trans
actions of members of the present City
Council, who served in the preceding
body.
The result caused no surprise. for those
well posted as to the status OF the mat
ter expected no more. It took the body
but little over an hour to hear argu-
ment pro and con and to adopt a sub
stitute offered by Mr. Peters setting out
at great length that an investigation
would do no good and declaring unalter-
able the opposition of the Common Coun-
Gil to the Minor resolution, which had
come on from the Board with the unani-
nous endorsement of that body.
Mr.. E. w Miner made a game but
losing fight for the paper offered by his
namesake in the upper branch. while the
opposition forces We're successfully lett
by President Bloomburg and Mr.. r. L..
Peters. MIR. Miner charged that a mem
ber of the Boare, who had voted for the
resolution had solicited votes in the
Council against it. and he made a strong
and Eloquent speech to his colleagues to
heed the voice of the people and give
them an insight into the conduct of thei.s
own business. which they had demanded.
But his eloquence was of no avail. The
opposition forces had been marshaled by
some of the most astute leaders in the
body and they knew bfore the vote was
taken what would be the result. Alt

meeting Messrs. Pollock, Mills. Peters.

Mr. f. w Miner became involved in a
colloauy regarding the purport OF dis

meeting. as to charges contained in the
report of the special grand jury. but 1T
took no serious turn. Mr. Miners first
move was to amend the John b. Minor
resolution by striking out $500 and IN
serting 500 as the amount Of expenses
for the investiSa ton. This was done to
meet the cry OF extravaganza made by
the opposition but the amendment was

He succeeded in proving that at

Chief Howard admitted that
immoral houses are in Richmond,
