ELECTION COMMISSION AND
FINANCE COMMITTEE AT OUTS
Two Sections of the Municipal Gov
ernment Disagree as to Technical
Point of the Law

The Election Commissioners and
the Finance Committee of the Board
of Supervisors have not evidently
agreed on a technical point of the law
in regard to the purchase of supplies
by any branch of the city government
At a meeting of the Election Com
missioners last night in the City Hall
a letter from the Finance Committee
was read in which it was said that the
members of the Finance Committee,
excepting Supervisor Payot, would re-
fuse to pass upon three bills incurred
by the Election Commission in it's
purchase of supplies for the main
tenance of it's department unless the
proper method of procedure in the
buying of such supplies was observed.
The members of the Election Com
mission were wroth at the action of
Supervisors d'Ancona and Branden-
stein. They allege that they pur-
chased the supplies as necesSaries to
the carrying on of an election. Super
visors Brandenstein and D'Ancona
assert that the supplies were not
necessary, to the actual holding IF an
election. but were needed only in the
general maintenance of the Depart
ment of Elections. D'Ancona says
that the Election Commission is re-
ouired by law-and cites the decision
of the Supreme Court as authority
to make a reouisition to the Board of
Supervisors for all supplies needed, ex-
cept the purchase of such articles as
are. Immediately. necessary for the pro-
ceeding with an election. When the
proper method of procedure is COM
piled with by the Election Commits
sioners, SAYS the Finance Committee,
it will approve the bills
The bills held up are those of Brown
& Power, Bennett Bros. and Fred w.
Taylor. The bills, which aggregate
but a small amount, were incurred in
the purchase of hardware and sta
tionery for the maintenance of the
Election Department

Williamson confirming the opinion
formed of him in The Liars''-that he
possesses the taste and temperament
of clever actor man.
This little Skit was written for Beer
bohm Tree about twenty-five years
ago, when it obtained quite a vogue.
And its intelligent presentation last
night was largely due to the efforts of
Francis L. Matthew, stage manager, to
whom much credit is due. And. by the
way, the ladies looked mighty pretty
before the footlights.
Then there was George Bromley S

follows:

For so clever a programme it is re-
grettable that more people didn't
hear it.
And that navy yard band was a
whole joy unto itself.
Those "chanteys" by the seamen-
really, truly seamen--were rollicking,
rowing rills of melody. They were
tunes beloved of men. and tunes that
set ones feet to motion.

st. Petersburg, Jan. 2S.-The belief
prevails today that the government has
no intention of acting sternly towards
the prisoners accused of melting Sun
days riots. Pardons for all are ex
pected. The total number of arrests
is 1000.
The council of ministers session to-
day was enlivened by an impassioned
address by President Witte, who de-
manded a government inquiry into the
reason for the outbreak and the in
itiation of measures to prevent a repe-
tition. The council did not acquiesce.
A conference between the municipal
authorities and manufacturers was
held at Moscow today for outlining a
settlement for the workmen. About
20. 900 are out there. Quiet prevails.
From the highest authorities it is
learned that the government intends
granting many reforms, including an
eight-hour day and higher wages.

The Desert like the deep.

Comes rushing up the steep:-

Up, Waterman, to thy heights and say
How the dread conflict goes.
What hearst thou from the DESERT

Were from Its axle lifted up
And to the ocean hurled:
The roaring as of waters.
The rushing as Of rills,
And 10! the tempest smoke and cloud,
That all the desert fills"
What seest thou on the desert?-
"a chariot comes" he cried.

That travel by It's side;
And now a lion darteth
= From out the clud, and he
Looks backward ever as he nies,
As fearing still to see!"
What. Waterman, OF the horsemen?-
They come. and as they ride.
Their horses cruch and tremble.
Nor toss their names In pride.
The camel's wande scattered,
Tho horsemen heed them naught.
But speed, as II they dreaded still
The foe with whom they fought
What foe is this, thou w~atchman?-
"Hark! Hank! the horsemen come;
Still looking on the path,
AS II they feared a doom;
| Their locks are white with terror,
Their very shouts a groan;
babylon they cry. has fallen.
And all her gods are gone!'
