as when it came steaming hot from the

RESPONSE to a Complaint.

John F. Crowell Of 1885 street north
west recently called to the attention of the
Commissioners the obstruction of the side
walk at the northeast corner Of 14th and q
streets northwest He complained that the
conditions constituted disregard of pub
lie convenience In atreport upon the mat
ter the engineer of highways. c. B. Hunt,
stated: 81! IN
During the construction Of cement
sidewalk around the Colorado building,
which was done tiritier permit from this
Office at the whole cost Of the property. the
sidewalk space was necessarily cut off from
public use for three or four days, and this
happens under similar conditions in connec-
ton with District Sidewalk work as regu-
lar experience. 1t would, of course. be prac-
ticable to require in the case of our own
work that bridges should be maintained
lengthwise of the walk during portions OF
the time that the walk Is barricaded, but
this would add considerably to the cost OF
the work and has not in the past been con-
sidered as being at all justified by the ad-
vantages that would be gained. nor has it
been considered equitable to exact, In such
cases the present, provisions that are
not contained in cur specifications This
office regards temporary barricade of the
sidewalk space during the construction OF
a cement walk as practical and necessary
procedure. and the inconvenience to the
public which results therefrom is justified

CONCERNING elliott CASE.
Commissioner West Forwards State
ment to Corporation Counsel.

Commissioner West has forwarded to the
CORPORATION counsel statement in connec-
ton with the papers in the trial Of Police
man Joseph l.. elliott, recently tried on
charges of conduct unbecomtng an officer.
Attorney Wilton J. Lambert. representing
elliott, filed a brief with the Commission
ers, protesting against the recommendation
of the trial board that elliott be dismissed,
notwithstanding the fact that the board
found him not guilty. Mr.. West says:
'.While the specific charge of receiving
consideration or assistance or influence
rendered applicants for the police force was
not substantiated, the investigation. so
thoroughly made by the superintendent of
police and the officers assigned to compose
the trial board developed the fact that
Private Gillotts conduct. demeanor and
pretensions, which made him sought after
by applicants together with his solicita-
ton to advise applicants. demonstrated In
the opinion Of the trial board, that he is not
qualified for service on the police force.
In approving this recommendation the
superintendent of police qualified his posi-
ton by asking whether such removal can
be accomplished under the law. The super
intendent who drafted the police reorgani-
cation act, inserted in that measure pro-
vision securing to members Of the force
tenure of office during good behavior. ard
providing for a fair trial to every officer
upon the fling of written charges with am
pie opportunity for defenSe ON the part OF
the accused.
..The question at issue in this case is
whether Private elliott can be removed
upon the testimony ELECTED during the eX-
animation not subStantiating the specific
accusation, or whether there should be an
other trial on charges of conduct prejuditial
to the good order and discipline of the
force"

Ministers Salaries.
!. Boston Christian Register.

From the Boston Christian Register.
Ministers salaries are sometimes such as
to represent the average financial ability
of a congregation. In such cases the min
lister Is better Off financially than the poor
er half of his congregation. and not so rich
as the other half his income, however, is
sufficient to enable him to represent his
CONGREGATION in social affairs decently and
becomingly. But in a large number OF
cases-in what proportion we do not know
the salaries of ministers are too small. They
do not represent the average ability OF the
congregation. but only the income from
the pews at a low rental or the proceeds
