FINK In CITY HALL AT LAST
Treasurer Finally Forces Actual 0OnSOlidA-
ton Of County and City DepOSitorieG
TAKES NEW OFFICE BY THURSDAY NIGH
Waits ON Two Councils Until He Can
Wait No Longer and Then
Takes Bali by the
Horns.

City and County Treasurer Fink has
announced that by Thursday night
the city treasury office will be
moved to the court house and the
consolidation with the county treasury
office effected in fact. He hoped to have
enlarged quarters provided at the city hall,
which would be much more convenient to
the general public than in the court house,
but has waited in vain on two councils
since April IL. Finally Mr. Fink has grown
tired waiting and of hearing protests from
tax payers on having to pay the tithes
at two different places. Therefore he has
posted this notice:
On and after this day Dune lS) all busi-
ness which has heretofore been done
through the city treasurer's office at the
city hall will be performed in the county
treasurer's office in the court house.
The last straw that Treasurer Fink
needed TO complete his decision was the
statement by Councilman Bridges of the
building and property committee that
funds were not available to make the
changes necessary in city hall ofices and
that the committee had decided to let the
whole matter rest a week, anyhow. The
committee has contemplated giving up the
rooms used at present by the comptroller
on the first aoor for the benefit of the COM
bined treasury apartments and to place the
comptroller on the second floor in the
rooms used by the park board and formerly
by the tax commissioner. What TO do with
the park board had not been decided. 1t
was proposed to partition OF part Of the
engineers large general room on tine
fourth floor. or combine the park board
with the water board in the latter's Offices
Councilman Bridges said that considerable
expense would be attached to any scheme
| proposed.

BEFORE THE PEOPLES BAR
Husband Draws Ninety Days for Beatine
His Hard Working Wife.
WOMAN DOES NOT WEAKEN AND CRY
Culprit il Joseph KuSn of Nineteenth
and Pierce streets; who Has
Appeared Before ON
f similar Charges.

Though not the most pleasant kind of
cases 10 contemplate, there generally is
more or less interest in eases wherein men
are arraigned before the peoples bar on
charges OF drunkenness and abusing their
families, or merely abusing their families.
The rule is the husband waits his turn with
lot of prisoners in the detention room,
while sitting in one of the rear seats behind
the rail is the wife who inst ;ated the ar
rest. Sometimes she wears bargain sale
bonnet bought with money she saved by
laying away small amounts i'm a sewing
machine drawer until she had s2.SS; at
other times she wears a more pretentious
top-piece for her GROWING glory.
The wife watches the door OF the deten-
ton room as each prisoner energies, until
one whom she recognizes comes out to face
the Judge. IL the wife is mpulsive she
rushes up to the judge as soon she sees
her husband brought out and begins to tell
how John wrenched OFF the front porch the
evening before and then threw a sideboard
at her. II she is thoughtful she pushes
back her veil and shows the magistrate
where the sideboard struck her on the face.
One woman forgot to do that two weeks
ago and returned the next day TO make
amends for her neglect.
As the husband is brought out Of the
room the first thing he does is to look over
the court room to see whether his wife
came to prosecute him. Then. when the
wife comes up to the Judge and stands be-
side him as complaining witness he whis-
pers to her, TN buy you a new washing
machine IL you don't appear against me,
or II the man has much money he win say
IN low tone. "a gold watch for you. my
dear. II you get me OF this time" often
times the pleadings OF the husband have
the desired effect

ANTHRACITE MEN
SPEND BUSY DAY
DETERMINED EFFORT WILL BE
MADE TO GET THE QUESTION
BEFORE THE CONVENTION AT
INDIANAPOLIS TO-DAY.

Indianapolis. January H.-Renewed eau
cusing today among the delegates to the
United Mine Workers convention of the
anthracite coal mining regions indicate
that there is to be another and more de-
termined effort to inject the anthracite
question in the deliberations of the dele
gates.
No meeting of the entire group of dele
gates representing the anthracite field was
held during the day, but small gatherings
in different rooms of the several hotels
were visited in turn by the various mem
bers, who professed to be discussing "rou-
tine business" but would say nothing in
dicating its nature.
No routine business was transacted by
the bituminous delegates.
What proceedings can be had to bring
the anthracite situation before the con-
vention, are problematical. About the
only method under the rules of the con-
vention would be the introduction of
resolution dealing with the question. To
do this, requires the unanimous consent
of the delegates, since the report of the
committee on resolutions has been closed
and adopted by the convention
1t is believed that the anthracite men
have succeeded in obtaining the sympathy
of large portion of the Ohio bituminous
members and that through these they are
endeavoring to influence Ohio and Hill
nois. II Is said that the Pennsylvania
bituninous delegates will come into camp
readily enough IL a strong move can be
started among the delegates representing
the other states.
Further action In the matter of the
resolution to change the constitution
of the national organization so that no
official may accept a salaried political Of
fice is looked for tomorrow. A resolution
along this line Is to be introduced under
the rule requiring the unanimous consent
of the delegates. Several other committee
reports of minor Importance are ready for
the action of the convention, and these
precede the report of the scale committee
in order of business. 1t Is hardly probable
that the scale will be reported until late
in the afternoon or Tuesday morning.
