charges of fraud brough against former
street Commissioner Taylor by Aldermen
Huber and Tinley. the committee appointed
to Investigate his books and accounts.
Mayor Morgan stated openly yesterday
that In his opinion the report Of the COM
mittee was but part of q conspiracy on the
part OF Alderman Huber to injure Taylor.
Mr.. Morgan stated further that II was no
secret that Alderman Huber had declared
on more than one occasion that he would
get even with Taylor and would not rest
until he had downed him." This statement
is alleged to have been made by Huber at
the time he had trouble with Taylor and

republican and Alderman Huber is a dem

streets and alleys committee last year

then street commissioner, and kept after
him until he secured his resignation. While
Aldermen Huber and Tinley may take
their charges against Taylor before the
