MOBILE SENSATION REPORT TO COUNCIL CAME AS
 BOMBSHELL.
  investigation Into Charges Against the Former Board of Public Works -Intruder Enters Home
 of MT. Ludlow.
Advertiser Bureau.


 Mobile, June 16.
 Those in the lobby at last nights ses- sion of the City Council were stunned, for the time being, when the report or the special committee on investigation of charges against the old Board or Public Works was read and this morn ing groups of men discussed the mat ter The astonishment of large num- 6er of property owners and taxpayers was plainly manifest The text of the report was evidently too broad to grasp after a casual reading. and many took time to re-read the document before giving expression to their feelings.
 With but casual reading of the full report, Alderman Faith said to The Ad- vertiser correspondent that he had al- ready discovered one error, to wit: That a certain contract, which was not awarded to the lowest bidder, did not have the vote of Commissioner Brooks, who, at this time Is President of the body. As to the other findings he was not prepared to talk.
 The history of this report Is very peculiar one. After the completion of the first paving venture there was some talk of dereliction of duty somewhere as to the depth of concrete founda tions and thickness of the wearing sur face of the asphalt. When the second venture was on more talk was heard. Finally Joseph H. Hobson. a local con- tractor with considerable experience, went into the print with certain ale gallons The charges were brought to the eyes of members of the General Council On motion of then Councilman Max Michael, a special Investigating committee was appointed and this com mittee held several meetings, paving the way to thorough investigation later.
 When the committee was appointed MT. Michael was named as chairman. When the present Council came into power MT. Michael not being a mem Der. the chairmanship fell to John Craft, second on the original committee.
 An appropriation was secured by res- olution to be used In the employment of an expert accountant to examine the books of the Board of Public Works and an expert engineer to make exam tnation and measurements of the paved districts. The results of the findings of the two experts were far apart in Several matters as to amount of feet of pavings and gutterirC. and these to- gether with other findings, reported by the special committee at last nieht.s session created the surprise and set eongues to wagging

Report off Grand Jury,

The grand Jury for the June term of the City Court adjourned at o'clock this afternoon after being in session two weeks. It returned seventy five true bills out of 157 cases examined. The feature of the report was in re- gard to the pest house. as follows;
 Before closing this report we would call attention of the county and city and we have the endorsement of the medical board, to the inadequacy of the pest house in caring for the patients sent there. At some seasons of the year, from several competent witnesses brought before us, we find that there has been too much crowding. so we would ask for three new cottages with three rooms each to be used for white patients; that also ample bathing fla cilitles be furnished; also, that the present building be repaired and re- painted and this to be used for colored
 patients, with baths and closets the same as for whites. We also think 1t necessary to have more beds and bed clothes so that cleanliness may be maintained. We would also maintain separation of sex; also separation or races as far as can be done; install proper fumigation facilities and have a place where the medicine can ne kept under the care of the keeper Of the place
 "A windmill is very necessary so that an abundance of fresh water can he had. and lastly that a telephone to connect the place with the city in case of an emergency, sudden illness, hre. etc. this telephone to be connected , with the police station and the ottice of the Medical Board"
