: The members of the city fire and
police departments, together with
other city employees under the Jurls-
diction of the Boards of Safety ana
Public Works must wait until Mon
day to receive their semi-monthly
salaries. This is due, it is said, TO
the recommendation of the finance
committee of the city council and the
action of the CITY council in approx
ing the recommendation, compelling
the Board of Works to audit all
claims before PAID. The action OF
the council did not apply to the
Board of Safety. but is is presumed
that the members of the body thought
il best to meet, audit and approve all
claims before allowing the same to
be paid. The flremen and police are
under the jurisdiction Of this board.
Mayor Bliss has called a meeting
of the Board of Safety for noon Mon
day and the Board of Works has been
ordered to convene at $50 o'clock
the same CAV to audit and approve
the different claims.
Members of the police force and
fire department are regular salaried
employees. That is they receive so
much per month, payable semi-month-
ly, on the 18th and LIST. The pay
rolls of the departments are made
out by the respective chiefs, Schad
of the police and Bicker of, the fire.
The time of each man is kept by
them, yr under their direction, and
members of the Boards of Safety and
Public Works are said to know
nothing of how much time man has
put in. Such matters as these are
left to the heads of the respective de-
partments. as is the time made by
street laborers to the street superin'
tendent. .-,
Easy Some Say.
In discussion the question with a
member of the council yesterday the
city father stated that the delay
caused in the firemen, and policemen
and others not receiving their
salaries was not due to the finance
committee in the council. The coun-
Gilman stated that if desired the mem
bers of the Board of Public Works
could convene at any time and audit
and approve claims submitted. The
same thing applies to the other
board.
In reply to this friends of mem.
bers of the board state that business
men like Alex Zelius and Lee Daniel,
together with Mayor Bliss have
other things to do. other than con-

ADJUSTMENT OF
THE LOSSES At
FRISCO
Important Meeting of Insurance
Companies Held in New York
to Discuss Matter.
BY Associated Press

New York, June An important
meeting of American insurance com
panies was hello here yesterday when
resolutions setting forth the position
of the underwriters represented as
regards the adjustment Of the liabil-
tiles in the San Francisco confagra-
ton were unanimously adopted. The
rulings adopted affect, it is claimed,
not less than Is per cent of the in
surance carried by American cOrpor-
atoms and explicitly deny liabilities
for purely earthquake losses.
Pointing out the complex and in
tricate nature of the policies present
ed for solution and stating that it is
highly desirable that all losses for
which the companies are legally liza
BILE should be promptly and fairly set
tied, the resolutions continues:
whereas, It is expedient that a
statement as to the legal and moral
liability of companies in regard to
the claims arising is adopted as a
fair statement of such liability, suit
able to be used as the basis for adj
justing losses:
First-Where policies covered
buildings land or their contents)
which had certainly fallen before the
fire or which had been so damaged
as to void the insurance unLer the
express terms of the contract, claims
under such policies should not be
Iaid
"NSecond-Where policies covered
buildings (and or their contents)
which have been damaged or destroy
ed by the authorities, civil AMI or
military. subject to the CONGREGATIONS
claims under such policies should lot
be paid until the facts have been
definitely ascertaineL.
"Third-Where policies covered
buildings (and or their cOntents)
which were probably, but not GEL
tainlv so damaged by earthquake as
to be brought within the provisions
of the fallen buildings clause; or -lb)
where policies covered buildings
! land or their cOntentS) which had
suffered from shock of earthquake
/ but not to such an extent as to bring
them within the provisions of the
/ fallen building clause. or (c) where
/ roHcies covered buildings (and OF
/ their contents) which had been DAM
aged or destroyed by the authorities,
civil or military before fire had reach
| ed them or cd where policies Gov
cred property whose owners by rea'
/ son of the destruction of their books
| and records, are unable to supply the
proofs of value required by the con-
ditions of their insurance policies. In
/ all such cases claims should be sci
/ tied by a reasonable compromise.
"FOurth-Where policies covered
contents of buildings which are GER
tainly not affected by the exemption
conditions of the policy, claims under
such policies should be paid az soon
as adjusted. subject to such deduc-
ton if any, as may fairly be made on
account of the salvage resulting from
the removal of portable property
from buildings before the fire had
reached them"
The RESOLUTIONS were telegraphed
| to the adjustment committee, San
Francisco last night and also cabled
to London for the information of the
! British companies.

One hundred pounds pressure must

the Pensacola Water Company"
Statement made by Mayor Chas. H.
Bliss.
Some weeks ago Mayor Bliss direct
ed letter to the management of the
Pensacola Water Company. instruct
ing the corporation that the ordinance
granting the franchise to the water
company must be lived up to in all re-
spects. To this communication and
order the Pensacola Water Company
objected, and stated that the pressure
asked for by the mayor would burst
water pipes and cause damage to
plumbing work. At the same time-th
water corporation stated, if necessary
the pressure asked for by the mayor
could be furnished, but that the COM
pany desired to be governed by the
law.
The order issued to the water COM
pany by the mayor and the communi.
cation of the company were referred
to City Attorney Jones and he sub
mitted the following to the council:
Agrees With Mayor.
Mr.. c. E. Merritt, City Clerk,
Dear Sir:-Replying to your COM
munication of the 18th inst. inclos-
ing correspondence between Mayor c..
H. Bliss and the Pensacola Water
Company, which you inform me the
council instructed you to refer to ME
with the request that I advise the
council if the mayor had authority to
issue the order embodied in his letter,
/ have to say:
/ agree with mayor in his eonstruc-
ton of sections twelve (12) and six
/ teen (16) Of the ordinance granting
the franchise to the Pensacola Wa
/ ter Company, and l am, therefore, of
| the opinion that he had the authority
TO issue the order embodied in his
said letter.
Yours very truly,
JNO. B. JONES,
City Attorney.
Mayor Bliss stated yesterday that
! the opinion handed down by City At
/ tOrney Jones, means that the water
/ company will be required to furnish at
least 100 pounds pressure at all fires,
and more if necessary.
The chief executive also said that
he had authoritive information that
plumbing work in Pensacola can
stand all water pressure furnished by
the water company.

SPORTING
NOTES
COACH YOST ADMITS THAT
VANDERBILT MAY WIN.
The Southern Team Has n Brilliant Lot
of Players and Michigan Fears Them
More Than They Did Illinois.

Such football enthusiasm as that
shown by the 1920 students that
crowded University hall TO sufcation
al the mass meeting held for the Van
derbilt team last night at Ann Arbor
never has been seen at Michigan even
in the palmy days before debrutalized
football was established.
The rooters yelled themselves hoarse
and of the speakers who evoked their
tumultous approval none was more
favored than Dan McGuigan, the old
Michigan guard, who coaches Wander
bilt.
That the game today will be a much
more serious affair for the Michigan
eleven than that with Illinois last
week, is the unanimous opinion here.
Vanderbilt expects to win or at least
to tie Michigan.
McGuigan and Yost agree that the
game will be one of the closest played
in Ann Arbor in many years, with a
possibility OF victory going either way.
The Vanderbilt team arrived in town
on a special car yesterday morning,
carrying its own water and food. This
afternoon it was given the new grid
iron at Ferry field to practice on, while
Michigan took the old. Friends of Nc
Guigan who were allowed to see the
southerners run through their stunts,
say that they play the snappiest,
strongest game of any team that has
appeared here for a long time.
The Michigan men, too. ran through
a successful practice. doing so well
they were sent in early to rest for the
struggle tomorrow. Yost will play
Bishop at half back with Workman
at quarter. The board of control is
as yet undecided as to whether Harry
Hammond can play. If it's decision is
favorable he will be placed at end
Otherwise Newton will hold down the
position.

Burns prefaced his victory over the
