FLAW IN THE CALL
Only Two Bids Received For
 Police Patrol.

There have been only two bidders,
 so far, for the job of police patrol
 for the next two years, Emil PoIlak and Thomas F. Lunny, the present in- strument of that arm of police protec-
 tion. In way, Mir Lunny has a | cinch on the matter, for if the usual
 way of advertising for business con
 tracts were carried out it would have
 to go to MT Lunny. AS MT Lunny's contract expires on December 31, this provision of the charter could not be l carried out. But the board, at a pre- vious meeting, did the next best thing, appointed committee to get bids. While the actual wording of the mo- tion confined the committee to confer with MT Lunny only. the committee took it to mean to include anybody willing to consider the matter who had the proper equipment for the work. discussing this point it de- Veloped that the city does not own the present equipment of the police patrol, that it is the property of the contrac- tor, MT Lunny, and that he has been paid $1,10O a year for the past three years, the period during which the pa trol has been in existence
 There were two bidders for the iob Emil Pollak of Phoenix avenue. and Mr Lunny, Grand street. The first named bid $20O0 year. and Mir Lunny's bid was $1,9OO for the first year and $2.000 for the following two years. Owing to the peculiar word- ing of the motion which created the committee, both bids were tabled and it was voted to advertise for bids which shall be opened at an adjourned meeting to be held Saturday after noon. The charter provides that ten days notice shall be given in such cases, but it also provides that in case of urgency, as in this, that period may be abbreviated with the permission of the mayor.
 There was read communication from Policeman John F. Dunphy and bis physician in St Vincent hospital, New York. stating that he was getting along very well and calculated upon reporting for duty very soon. The let ter also stoted that one night in No- vember while trying the door in Adam Dauch's store on Bishop street. he slipped and fell and to this was at tributed his collapse on North square few weeks later. He hoped to be kept on the pay roll on that account. Both communications were filed with the understanding that it would be time enough to take action upon them when the officer shall report for duty.

THE POLICE COURT.
Man Was Fined $50 and Costs and
 Put on Probation.

A strange story was told in the
 city court this morning. Peter
 Trembley and his wife were passing near the junction of Clay, South Elm
 and South Main street Christmas
 night when, according to their story,
 Ernest Duchette, a stage builder for the Granite Construction company, rushed against him and called Mrs Trembley vile names in French. Duchette first asked him to buy bot tie of whiskey and upon his refusal to do so he abused him. ''I had $65 in my pants pocket and I had my left hand on it and this fellow, Duchette, pulled out my hand and my money was scattered all over the street. I did not look to pick 1t up because I did not know what was coming. There was another fellow with Duchette and he picked up some of the money. I have not got back my money yet" Duchettes defense was an alibi. Maurice Mccarthy who keeps a saloon at the corner of Clay and South Main streets, George Car roll, a bartender, and Edmund Sauthier, an employe of the Granite Construction company, testified to Duchette's whereabouts from , to 9:45 o'clock. The assault upon Trembley took place about g o'clock. Judge Peasley imposed a fine of $50 and costs. Duchette asked to be put on probation and the court bid him take the witness stand to see if he wished to change his story. Duchette said that he knew Trembley and that if he ever had more than sixty-five cents in his pocket it was the most and Trembley's story that he had $65 was ridiculous. Duchette still maintained his innocence and Detec- tives Dodds and Reagan said they knew nothing ill of him. He was ac- cordingly put on probation.

for the erection of any part of a building or structure where state ments and plans have been submitted for the same before the entire plans and detailed statements of building or structure have been submitted. Section 118. It shall be the duty of the building inspector:
 To make examinations and issue
 permits as provided for in this
 ordinance;
 To receive and keep on file all
 plans and documents as provided
 for in this ordinance;
 To keep a record of all examina-
 tions, inspections and other of-
 ficial actions as provided for in
 this ordinance;
 To inspect all buildings and struc-
 lures during their construction
 and notify their owners of any
 violation of the provisions of this
 ordinance, and to set reason
 able time in which the remedy
 ing of such violation shall be af-
 fected;
 To perform. such other duties as
 
 tion required of him by the terms
 of this ordinance.
 ".
 It is our belief that the building inspector did not cause these sections of the ordinance to be compiled with in this case, and did not use reason able care to inspect the supports of this building, during or after the all terations made therein, and that if such sections had been complied with or the building had been inspected with reasonable care, the accident in question would not have happened. Respectfully submitted,

 Committee. The other member of the commit tee Commissioner Marggraff submitted a minority report in which he stated that while the collapse of the floor was due to imperfect supports he did not find the building inspector derelict in his duty.
 Both reports were tabled for fu- ture action. or until the investigation into the other matters complained of and which have been already report ed is completed. This may be next January 1, when the board shall hold regular meerng, the last one of it's term of existence which expires next Monday, January 6.

RAILROAD
ACCIDENTS

The increasing number of railroad
accidents within the last few years.
has become to be the subject of care
full and continuous scientific inquiry
Some very high authorities in scien-
tific railroad circles claim that a
large per cent of RAILROAD calama-
ties is primarily due to defective
rails manufactured and put into
the markets of the world by the
steel trust Others are of the opin-
ion that many of the accidents are
the result OF the demands made M
on the railroads by an increase of
traffic, thus overtaxing the roadbed.
The above causes seem plausible.
and are worthy Of careful and scien-
tihc investigation, but they fail to
satisfy the inQuiring mind of the
careful student. Ingenious incen-
tors are devoting their attention to
the bringing forward of new ideas
and new devices to promote the con
struction Of up-to-date railroads. In
every part of the country penetrat-
ed by railroads, the old roads are
being reconstructed and new ones
are being built with the utmost care
10 assure the permanently Of their
tracks and the safety of passengers.
Heavy steel rails have supplanted
tho light ones of irpn and rock
ballast is now used instead of sod.
Steel bridges span the streams where
once wooden structures answered
and curves and grades Strengthened
wherever possible.
The railroads have shown marked
improvement with the increase of
traffic, in every particular, and un-
der present conditions the per cent.
OF accidents should not exceed those
of former years. So the foregoing
reasons, when followed to their uI-
innate sequences fail to explain the
cause OF so many railroad accidents.

EVERY MAN HIS OWN DOCTOR.

The average man cannot AFFORD
to employ a physician for every all
ment or injury that may occur in his
family. Nor can he afford to neglect
them. as so slight an injury as the
scratch of pin has been known to
cause the loss Of limb. Hence every
man must from necessity be his own
doctor for this class OF ailments.
Success often depends upon prompt
treatment, which can only be had
when suitable medicines are kept at
hand. Chamberlain Remedies have

New York. June 5.-FranA G..
Tullidge. son of the late multimil-

Weber's Dream City" company.
Young Tullidge is here to get a lob
and is willing TO work at host any
thing that will give him rent m.ney

wife. His family positively refuses
to accept the former actress and his
source of income has been shut of.
But Tullidge is very much i'm love
and is dead game.
Tullidge and his wife pra ,t,caIly
isolated themselves In Cleveland.

riage in Chicago and it looks as
though they would 10 something or
that sort here 1t is evident they
won't go back TO Cincinnati unless
the mother and sister of the bride
groom suffer a change Of heart. Miss
Tullidge voiced the sentiments OF
the family when she said. accordng
to dispatches received from Cincln-
natl today:
II am at least glad to see that
Franks wife is Of sound sense and
has not come here to visit his rela-
t1ves with him. I will not say we
would not receive her, but ! am
sure my brother wouldn't think OF
bringing his bride out to our home
Frank will have to go to work 81
continued his sister He married
the girl and will have to stand by
her. This affair is most unfortu-
nate. Frank is an aimable young
man, who has been in the habit OF
having his own way for years. He
has no fortune of his own. That
IS all a mistake He had some money
when he was in Chicago, but that
won't last long, and when 1t is gone
it's the help wanted column for
