HAD NO INTEREST.
President Morgan Does Not
Stand Sponsor For Dis
orderly Houses.

A vehement denial of any desire or
intention to assist violators of the law
or the maintainance of disorderly
houses of any nature was contained in
a letter received by Governor War
field today from Mr. Evan II. Morgan,
president of the first branch of the
city council of Baltimore.
The letter and its denial was
brought forth by statement which
was made to the Governor Thursday
when listening TO applications for
pardons. Mrs. Robert Il. McCluskey,
of 1909 n. Calhoun street, Baltimore,
applied TO the Governor on that day
for a remission of fine of 500 in the
case of her husband. who had been
found guilty Of maintaining a disor.
derby dance hall. She was not provid-
ed with any petition or even a copy
of the court entries in the case, and
the Governor asked her if she had
seen any one in relation to using their
influence to secure the release of her
husband, who is still in Jail.
Mrs. McCluskey stated that Mr..
Morgan had promised to work for her
in the matter and that he would see
the Governor and urge him to grant
the release. This, Mr.. Morgan, in his
letter, Indignantly denies. He states
that he was not approached in the
matter, was not interested In il TO the
slightest degree and, Furthermore,
that he thought it was to the benefit
of the neighborhood that the place
had been closed up.

KILL WILLIAMS ORDINANCE
COUNCILMANIC COMMITTEE
HOLDS MEETING.
Does Not Think a Paid City Fire
Department Should Be
Established AT
Present.

recommendation pleasing TO the
members ofNthe city fire department
will be made by the fire committee of
the City Council at the next meeting
of the Council. AT its meeting yester-
day the Investigations made by the
councilmanic committee were along
those lines which have caused the
mebmers of the companies more or
less uneasinesS.
The work of the committee was sim
plified somewhat by the presence in
the city of Mr.. Holliway, the manu-
facturer of hose trucks particularly as
one of the subjects to be considered
by the committee was whether or not
the Waterwitch Company needed a
new truck.
Mr.. Holliway, accompanied the
members to the Waterwitch hose house
and examined the old truck. After
making careful examination. of the
machine ne stated that in his opinion
it would be a waste of money TO repair
the machine and that a new one was
certainly needed. The councilmanic
committee was of the same opinion
and will recommend to the Council
that new truck be purchased at as
early date as possible.
Considerable discussion was given
the proposed ordinance of Councilman
Williams for paid fire department.
It was decided that at this time paid
fire department was unnecessary and
ill timed and that the present yolun-
teer system was of exceptional worth
and value. The committee decided to
reprot adversely to the proposed ordi
nance.
1t will also be recommended by the
committee that new nozzles be pur
chased for all of the companies. The
old nozzles are antiquated and becom-
ing rapidly useless and it is claimed
that to insure good service on the part
of the department. new ones should be
provided.
