Editor Eagle: =
wish to express my appreciation ~
the tlmcllncss Of your articles upon the
necessity OF having the conduct of the
city Clerks office investigated. and I
am glad to see that the city Council
has ut length been obliged to take some
steps In that direction. In this cOniicc.
tlOn ! wish to point out u peculiar cir.
cumstancc which think has Il bearing
on this matter ana which. perhaps,
may have escaped your observation. l
alludc to the mysterious disappearance
Of the city tax agents records In the
Crane ally deal. These records were
found yesterday, but the story OF thcir
discovery ~ published In this morn
ing's papers speaks volumes. Here It
Is:
"'rhe discovery Of the missing rec
Orls In the Crane alley deal was the
sensation Of the City Hall during the
afternoon. The documents In question
were the various communications be-
tween the Committee on Streets aud
Alleys West and Mr.. Harrington.
Usually they We're preserved In Il box
In City Clerk LOefiier's office. Flu
plOyes said yesterday that members Of
the Streets and Alleys West Committee
had access to this repository"
Truly you are stating but u simple
truth when you assert that the city
Clicks office needs IN investigation.

To the Editor Chicago Eagle:
Dear Sir-Permit me to congratulate
you. The "BOOzers' Union" has ut last
been awakened to Il realization of the
fact that there IL something else for It
to do besides publish foolish alleged
analysis of the water and advise the
people to boil II. The Il. u. has discOv.
cred mo doubt through the ''rOast" it
received In last weeks Eagle that
hOrsemeat Is being sold as beef In this
city, and has thought well Of sending
n report to the City Council on the sub
ject. This IL really eXhilarating. hut
meantime we do not hear Il word about
flushing the sewers. Keep on rapping
the u. u. on the knuckles about our
''solld sewers ana perhaps you may
produce as good results rs you did by
the "horsr meat" articles.
