Gen. Sherman Bell may go to Vene-

government with power to do as he
sees fit in protecting American inter-

his disposal, and that he was inclin-

Office expires April /. While he re-
fused to discuss the nature of his du-
ties, he intimated that under certain
conditions tlfey would be of a war
like mature, Friends say the posi-
ton offered Bell is in the diplomatic
corps, but others are inclined to
think the general has been delegated
to shake the mailed fist at Castro.

State Inspector Hines has com

is said, making out his report. The
accountants employed to go over the
figures have completed their work
and turned all data into the hands

II is understood that the report

The chairmen of the committees
of the general council appointed for
various departments of the city gov
eminent usually have at least some
thing to say about the regulation or
management of their respective de-
partments. Thus the light commit
tee, the fire and police committee,
the street committee, the cemetery
committee, and others that might be
named, look after great many
things connected with these depart
ments, and that is what they are
there for. AS small a piece OF pea
nut politics as has come to light dur
ing an administration of very small
peanut politics and politicians was
the action of the aldermen last night
in refusing to have the chairmen OF
the joint hospital committee on the
hospital board and substituting for
them the democratic presidents OF
the two boards. 1t was done simply
because these gentlemen happen to
be republicans. To refuse them a
place on the board after making them
chairmen of the hospital committees
was an insult, and shows that poll
tics is a more important factor In our
city government than courtesy, fair
ness or public good.
