.sADDLER DENIES
ACTIN c ILLEGALLY
NO PROFIT MADE IN HORSE
TRANSACTION
Used His knowledge of Horseflesh to
Secure Bargain for City and Paid
for Animals by Personal
Check

''As soon as my term as police COM
missioner expires I'll serve a term in
the penitentiary or the insane asylum
before 1 ever become a city official
again. No amount of money could
tempt me-"
Such was the emphatic declaration
of Police Commissioner Charles sad
dler yesterday when has was brought
unpleasantly into the imelight of pub
lie attention for having had a hand in
buying some horses for the police de-
partment. Mr. Saddler is a horseman
by profession and he is accused of
selling horses to the city while holding
a municipal position. If this were true
it would be a direct violation of the
city charter.
But according to Mr.. Saddler's state
ment, and he is supported by Chief
Auble and others who know the cir
cumstances, it is not true in any sense
in which the spirit of the charter pro-
vision is violated.
Mr.. Saddler's statement, supported
by others, is that few weeks ago he
learned where the city could purchase
some horses badly needed by the po-
lice department. at reasonable fgure.
Gives Check for Horses
Accordingly he and Chief Auble
drove out into the country forty miles
and bought a pair Of beauties, paying
$3.50 for the pair. AS the charter will
not permit the taking of money to
make purchases without a requisition,
and wishing to secure the bargain as
soon as possible, Mr. Saddler wrote
out his personal check and paid for
the horses.
Acting on the advise of the chief he
put In a requisition for $3.50, the ex-
act price he had paid for the horses,
and after several weeks his money
was returned. On the entire transac-
tion Mr.. Saddler did not make one
cent although he had devoted an en-
tire day to the city's interests at the
neglect of his personal business
Mr. Saddler Is also accused OF SELL
ing four horses to the fire department
after he became q commissioner He
explains this by saying that the deal
for the horses as put through before
he had so much as been asked by the
mayor TO accept the position OF COM
missioner, and that the long process
of red tape necessary for the payment
of a municipal bill delayed the pay
ment Of the money until one week after
he had been appointed commissioner.

LIBRARIANS MAY MEET
IN LOS ANGELES NEXT
CHAMBER OF COMM ERCE Is
HELPING MoVEM ENT
Fifteen Years Ago the Association Met
In San Francisco--At the Recent
Gathering Pittsburs Made a Hard
Fight to Capture the Conference

The thirtieth annual conference OF
the American Library association bids
fair to meet in Los Angeles in 1908.
Every possible effort is being made
TO that effect by the business men OF
this city.
The chamber of commerce Is taking
an active part in this, as usual In all
important affairs This body has re-
ceived a communication from Charles
F. Lummis, city librarian, urging the
directors to exert every effort to Sc
cure the noteworthy conference for Los
Angeles
The nearest to Los Angeles that the
conference has ever been held was in
San Francisco fifteen years ago, and
the Angel City feels justly entitled to
the honor of entertaining one of the
foremost educational associations in
the United States
The American Library association
stands second to none, excepting the
achievements of the great teachers as
ISOLATION, as an educational factor 1t
contains the leading educational ele-
ments of America, the delegates as
sembling at the conference in large
numbers.
MIR. Lummis having attended the last
annual conference, speaks encourag-
ingly of the feeling in favor of Los
Angeles for the meeting in 1908, but
says that Pittsburg, Pa, is one OF the
most lively competitors in the field as
Carnegie is building a library there to
cost $5 900, 900; also Montreal and Min
neapolis are claiming recognition.
The conference Of 1907 win be held in
Asheville, N. G.

M 'ALEER MAY
REMOVE MASON
HAS BEEN AWAY FROM CITY
TWO MONTHS
No Intlmatlon from Commissioner as
TO When He viii Return and
Mayor ls Becoming
Anxious

"Appointve officersr-let's see how
long they may be away from the city"
muttered Mayor McAleer to himself
yesterday as he eagerly searched the
charter 1t was evident that he did not
find what he wanted, for he laid the
charter on his table with something
very like a snort at the insufficiency Of
the document.
The charter is lamentably lacking In
any provision to designate how long
an appolntive officer may neglect his
duties or be out of the city without
giving sufficient cause to be removed.
AS to elective officers the charter Is
very specific and says that no elective
official may be away from the city or
his duties for more than thirty days
without good and sufficient excuse and
on formal leaves of absence granted by
the council.
But, az far as the charter is con-
cerned, an appointive official may go to
Europe or anywhere he pleases as soon
as he has filed his bond and stay there
until the administration under which
he serves Is over, and do nothing for
the city In the mean time.
Wants to Remove Mason
1t is probably owing to this fact that
George Mason still holds his position on
the police commission.
Mayor MeAleer had Commissioner
Mason In mind when he was looking
the charter over yesterday. The last
meeting of the commission that Mason
attended was August a. Since that
time he has been touring the north and
east and has SO far given no intimation
as to when he will return. He has
written to the mayor but once. Before
he left he did not ask for, nor was he
granted, any formal leave of absence
although Commissioner James asked
for such leave when he left for his
vacation.
1t is a well known fact that the mayor
would be glad to rid the commission
OF Mason. The two are seldom in SYM
pathy on any case before the commits
sion, and on one occasion Mayor Nc
Aleer requested Mr.. Mason to resign,
which the commissioner refused to do.
The charter gives the appointing power
the privilege of removing appointees on
good ana sufficient excuse and Mason's
long continued absence from the city
may be taken as such excuse by the
mayor.

Society
Romance RAvaaIed

pretty romance which was only re-
yealed day or two ago by the seriou'
illness OF one of the parties was the
marriage OF Rev. w. G. Snyder, q
Methodist minister of sunnyslde, and
the 16-year-old daughter OF city Mar.
shal John Sleet of Black Hawk, Cal.
The ceremony was performed with
the consent Of the girls parents some
time ago In Black Hawk, but none oi
the friends of the couple had even the
remotest suspicion. A few weeks age
Rev. Mr.. Snyder came here and was
given a supply at Sunnyslde. But al
did not go well, and the minister, who
is 30 years old, fell seriously III and had
to send for his young wife. That was
the first intmation anyone had of the
marriage and now congratulations are
pouring In and many social affairs arc
being planned in honor Of Rev. and
Mrs. Snyder, for It is expected that the
bridegroom will get better when his
wife is with him.

celve $125 Instead Of $115 4
Monthly

The salaries of w. II. McGill, clerk
of the health department, and Henry
Slef, deputy clerk, have been advanced
from $115 to $125 month. While one
is designated as clerk and the other

the same work and are considered enti-
tied to the same salaries.
The ordinance providing for the in
crease of salary also provides that the
clerk of the health department shall
be secretary of the health board. Here
tofore the mayors secretary has been
legally the clerk Of the board, but Nc
