tions and collection be taken at the con-
cert tomorrow evening. Under existing
conditions it costs one 20 cents TO hear a
band concert In Montpelier. II he takes
his wife 1t costs 40, and If he take wife

be much cheaper to pay for concerts here

BURLINGTON'S
TURMOILS
Who Is Chief Of Police
of That City,
THE COURTS ARE DECIDING
Former Chief BrownelI and Mayor
Burke Each Desires the
Honor.

Montpelier, June 29.-Judge J. II.
Watson gave a hearing in the county
clerk Office at the court house this even
ing on the petition for an injunction to re-
strain Mayor Burke Of Burlington from
interfering with the duties Of Chief Of
Police Brownell OF Burlington. j. e.
Cushman appeared for Chief Brownell,
and j A. Brown and r. Z. Brown for
Mayor Burke.
Mayor Burke and Chief Brownell we're
present at the hearing tonight Mr.
Cushman argued that the time Of suspen-
sion Of any police officer as provided BY
Burlington city charter sets wholly with
the board Of police commissioners and
that the mayor has no legal right OF power
to suspend the chief Of police unless
charges Of any improper conduct are first
made In writing and that suspension or
dismissal rests with the board Of police
commissioners.
IL +. Brown, appearing for Mayor
Burke. said that under the city charter Of
Burlington, section 2l3, the chief OF police
stands ais any other officer Of the police
force. The police rules do not modify III
any way the force Of the city ehafter Un-
der this section, which was read to the
court, Mr.. Brown argued that the mayor
has discretionary power to remove the
chief Of police or any other police officer
without first preferring charges against
him. IL is idle from this section Of the
charter 70 argue that the police commits
sloners have to do with the removal or
suspension Of any police officer. It is in
the sound discretion Of the mayor and no
one else.
Judge Watson took the case under ad-
visement and stated that when decision
is reached it will be forwarded to Burling-
ton. The hearing adjourned about II
O'Clock.
