The three appointments. confirmed by
the council on Monday night Intends
TO force the opposition to Detective
Sheets TO submit 70 his desires In the
matter and allow the ex-deteellye TO be
restored TO the police force. That this
Is undoubtedly true Is quite apparent
from statements made by Sharp and
Thomas at the meeting OF the police
committee on Wednesday evening,
when they said In substance that they
would not sign a report recommending
to the council the confirmation Of the
three patrolmen, referred to the COM
mittce for investigation, until Cottrell

Sheets. Hewlett was not 30 decisive
In his statement IN that connection.

Cottrell and Eardley IN line with his

but friends Of those two councilmen be-
lieve that they VIII stand firm, regard
less OF the pressure that is brought to

Cottrcll and Eardley both stated TO
News" reporter this morning that
they ahd not been approached by any
one In regard 10 the present status Of
the fight and that they had received
no edIct from the mayor, or Chief Paul
In that connection. Cottrell was in
clned TO doubt that the mayors action
indicated that he would not approve the
other appointments until Sheets was
relnstalled, for If that was his inten-
ton, In order 20 be consistent In his
fight, he would not have approved the
appointment OF Charles NJ. Evans.
Another interesting session OF the
council Is expected on Monday evening
when the matter will probably be taken
frlm the committee and fought out or
the floor OF the council, Most inter-
est Is being manifested in the new turn
