WON'T GIVE BINGHAM $4,000,
Little Tim Shocked by the Generals speech
About the Useless Forty.

IAttIe Tim Shocked by the Generals speech
About the Useless Forty.
Little Tim Sullivan continued at yester-
days meeting OF the Board Of Aldermen
the game Of battledore and shuttlecock
he has been playing with Police Commis-
soner Bingham since the beginning OF the
year. When Gen. Bingham first asked
for 100000 to pay the wages Of a secret
service force the application was promptly
turned down. Then the Commissioner
said publicly that the Aldermen were
afraid 10 vote him the money.
The Finance Committee thereupon asked
the Commissioner TO appear before the
committee and explain just what he wanted
the money for. Gen. Bingham did meet
the committee last week and after a combat
with Little Tim, the chairman Of the COM
mittee, left the room with the remark that
he didn't care what the committee did, but
that the responsibility was on the COM
mittee.
Little Tim announced that the committee
would recommend an appropriation OF
$4,000. Since then Gen. Bingham has
announced publicly his desire that about
forty police captains useless TO the depart
ment would die suddenly, since they won't
work and won't retire. SO yesterday
when the report came up Little Tim took
1p the cudgels for the forty. He accused
he Commissioner Of demoralzing the
orce. Of inefficiency and Of inability TO
control the men under him.
This Is country of brotherly love and
human feeling said Little Tim, "and
what kind Of a man is this that we have in
our midst who would wish 10 send forty
Of his captains 10 eternity without time
for preparation for the hereafter
This eloquence was followed by a vote
rejecting the report, although the first
signature TO II was Little Tins.
As soon as the negative vote had been
recorded Little Tim did another somer-
sault and moved that the vote be recon-
stdcrod. The Tammany men were mystiiied.

carry the matter further yesterday His
friends believe that he did not want the
resolution killed entirely, but that he wanted

DOG GETS AID BY
USING TELEPHONE
NOT A NATURE FAkIR'S YARN
BUT MERELY A STORY OF
HOW A SMART DOG GOT HIS
FREEDOM.

To begin with, this is not a nature
fakir's yarn It's merely a story
about a dog who devised ways and
means of getting something to eat
end drink. Everybody knows this
dog. AT any rate il they don't they
should. He is a very wise dog. Also
h. Is the best and onliest dog rounder
in Cairo, His territory is from First
to Fortieth street. He has friends on
every street and the panic has not in
terfered In the least with his meals
But this is story OF how he got
out of a bad hole yesterday. The dog
wandered into down town office
Saturday afternoon, He had been
playing ball with some children all
day and was tired So he went back
to quiet corner and took snooze.
He snoozed so hard that he didn't know
when the man who owns the office
locked up. Maybe he didn't wake up
till some time Sunday. Anyway after
the breakfast hour had rolled into
the dinner hour and 1t commenced to
look like he was going to have TO stay
locked up all night the dog got busy
He is a very observing dog and he
knows what a telephone is. At least
be knows that telephone means
or does something.
So when he got right good and
hungry he jumped up an the mans
roller top desk and with his paw
knocked the receiver off the hook. OF
course he couldn't tell the central girl
what he wanted but he did commence
10 howl and bark as soon as he had
-ung in Maybe the girl was wise her
self or maybe the fact that the re-
,eiver stayed down and that every
lime she asked for the number she
cot howl in return, finally resulted
n her calling up the man who owned
he telephone and told him that there
was a dog in his office making ter
rible boiler. OF course the man knew
it was his dog and he went out in the
snow and turned him loose.
