sullivan's Tart Remarks.

eff you are going to spend $l,5OO year of tho city's money for License 1nspec- tor" said Alderman Sullivan. pay 1t to a man who does something. You refused to give the Captain of Police S,500 the Captain of Police who rides around con- stantly at night at the head of the Police Department, seeing that patrolmen do their duty. But you propose to give N,5OO to a man who sits by hot stove and does his work with a desk telephone. l want to say right here 1t has gotten so that when a man gets where is is not good for anything else. he gets fat job. It's time to stop that practice. The job is not worth more than $1,200 and won't vote for any larger salary"
 Alderman Forbes moved that $1,2O0 be substituted for $1,500 in the ordinance. The License Inspector. he said, had ac- cepted the job knowing that 1t had beeD paying H,2OO annually.
 Chairman Kohn of the Finance Com- mlttee defended the report of the commit tee. The License Inspector, he said. had many increased duties with the creation os Greater Montgomery. The city would receive an addition of $500 annually from the labors of the License Inspector The nresent incumbent, said Mir. Kohn, was q faithful and able city official.
 The Forbes amendment was lost by vote of ayes, 6; nays. '.
 Alderman Forbes insisted that 1t was douhtful if the Council had any right to mass an ordinance increasing an ofhclals salary during his term of office. Being asked for an opinion, City Attorney Ray Rushton said the Council could pass the ordinance without violating the city char ter
 Alderman Kohn moved that the ordi- nance go over until the next regular meeting of the Council. This motion was adopted.

deal has been consummated by the

company secures possession of a valuable
residence property in close proximity to
the yard offices of the Panhandle. The
building will be remodeled into unique lit
tie institution TO be used exclusively by
trainmen running in and out of that city.
Saloons have sprung up rapidly in that sec
ton and the company has found il neces-
sary to issue strenuous orders against the
use of liquor both on and off duty. 1t was
impossible TO watch the men all the time,
and the officials have decided to enter into
direct competition with the saloons, and to
establish a rest house more attractive than
the saloon. This is the object of the Pan
handle Railroad Mems Hotel. The plans
call for dining room, lunch counter and
rest and reading rooms on the first floor,
sleeping quarters for a large number of
men on the second floor, and a we'll
equipped bathroom in the basement. The
hotel will be supported on much the same
plan as the BrightwOOd Rest of the Big
Four. President ]. j. Turner will, in a few
days, determine who will have charge of
the institution. The rest house is not an
experiment. Many of the big railroads
ais, and they not only increase the service
rendered but promote loyalty. Thirty years
ago the rank and file of railroad employees
took as much interest as the PRINCIPALS in
making the railroad a success. They were
as proud of having their names enrolled on
the roster of the railroad as Is the mem
Der of crack regiment in the army. There
has been a decrease in the interest among
the rank and file of railroad men, and the
fault lies mainly with the companies. the
men feeling no obligation to the railroad

NEW YORK. Feb. 2s-Financial conditions
are such that nothing but a traders stock mar
ket can be looked for the coming week And
the way things looked at the close OF the past
week IL is likely that the market viii rot only
be nothing more than traders market, but
that It will be very narrow and small.
There is little inclination generally TO buy
stocks Neither does there seem to be very much
inclination % seq. But out Of such conditions
the tendency Is usually for lower prices. In
prices AID on the other hand there are goodly
number of things which may have decided
effect FOR lower prices.
The past week has pretty generally upset fnan-
cial affairs on the continent. as atJested by the
important failures IN Berlin and Paris. Al
though press dispatches said the effects OF these
failures had been Overestimated, they show the
somewhat unstable conditions II financial at
Germany and France hold millions Of dollars
worth OF Russian securities. and these securi-
ties have greatly deprecated in market value
since the began This depreciation mas

2,459 more loaded cars than in the week

over any preceding week in the roads his

drawback for months to come Will be the
bad condition Of the power following the
