Mobile, Feb. 7.--(Saecial by Long Distance Telephone. 1.-The Board of Public Works held it's regular weekly session this afternoon at o'clock with President Brooks in the chair and all the members of the Board present
 The joint pole ordinance discussion between the two telephone companies, which the Board has been trying to settle for several months, came up again. Mir. Rich, attorney for the Southern Bell Tciephone and TelegT ph Company was present at the meeting. He took exceptions to the resolution of the Board at it's last meeting a copy of which resolution was sent the Bell people compelling them to use the Home poles. MT. Rich said the Board did not have this authority, but, as he read the city ordinance, that power rested with the city elec- trician.
 The president of the Board asked Mir. Chamberlain to confirm the resolu- ton by ordering the Bell people on the Home poles. which was done by the city electrician.
 4 motion was passed by the Board fxing the rental fo rthe use of the poles at fifty cents per cross arm per year. .s...-...
 Mir. Rich said he would appeal from
  poles on the ground that the Board did not have that authority and the matter then went over until the city attorney could be consulted by the Board, and a legal opinion given by him. .s.
 The charge of discrrmmation against City Electrician Chamberlain by the Home Telephone Com any. between the two comnanies was brought up, and continued until tho next or some fu- ture meeting of the Board. The out come of these charges i1 watched with great interest, as they are sweeping charges along with other things neg feet of duty and showing a decided preference between the two telophon companies.
 Dr. Mccormick appeared before the Board and said that the time for be- ginning the sanitary inspection of the city for the summer months to prevent fever this summer was near at hand, and earnestly requested tha Board to take action at an early date advising hiE1 when 10 Etart work as well as arrange ali prelimira~ies.
 The Board notified Dr. Mccormick to confer with Street Commissioner Kelly, and devise ways to start slc- cessful crusade against all unsanitarv premises in the city. Tn the mean time, the Board will take some pre- liminary action and help Dr. McCor- mick.
 Several matters of minor importance were brought to the attention of the Board and referred to the pope pa-- ties for action. after which the Board adjourned.
