After pointing out the worthlessness
OF the Hawkins report, the aldermen
say: while the motives that led up
to the Investigation and the results
obtained by the Hawkins company
might justify us In believing that 1t
was not the auditors purpose to get
a correct report, your committee does
not make such a charge
Commissioner Haarer is commended
as running the department efficiently
and the aldermen add that, consider
Ing the magnitude OF the operations
and the infinite detail involved, 1t is
wonder that so few mistakes have
been made.
The streets committee also reported
that some OF the streets In which
Mayor Thompson complained that car
tracks were In bad shape. have been
repaired and added it's recommends

LOW MAN ON EXAM.

BOILER INSPECTOR NAMES FRED
GOODNOUGH AS AN ASSISTANT,
PASSING OVER THOSE WITH
MUCH HIGHER STANDING.

Just as the old scrap over the
boiler inspectorship seemed to be all
over but the proceedings in court to
determine whether John c. McCabe or
J. Harvey Williams should be inspec-
tor. McCabe has started the pin-wheels
spinning again.
He has continued VIM. C.. Burrell as
chief assistant but has appointed Fred
Goodnough as the other assistant.
Where this excites comment Is from
We fact that the figures for the last
ler inspector examination have
leaked out and they show Goodnough
TO have been low man.
Aid. Deimel has the examination
markings. which show that John G.
McCabe was given rating of 100, j.

Criticism is made because Good

In by the fact that Goodnough has
stood with the mayor throughout the
long contest over the place.

SPECTACLE
SCORES OF CRAFT, ABLAzE WITH
LIGHTS, PARTICIPATE IN GREAT
RIVER FETE-sloHT VIEWED BY
THOUSANDS.

Detroit has found the possibility OF
its river as an attraction. Such was
the beauty and success of the water
carnival held Tuesday evening that
1t will be perpetuated as an annual
festival to which will flock thousands
from all parts Of the country annually.
The contrast Of dark water and
brilliant illumination, OF fitting lights
on the waves and steady. brilliant
light on shore. made up the charm of
the fete demonstrated that Detroit has
never appreciated the wonders of her
clear and beautiful river before.
AS soon as darkness fell, the scene
from any point along the docks, from
Belle Isle or from the great passen-
gers streamers anchored in the stream,
was one that came as surprise.
Lights were everywhere. The Casino
and other buildings on Belle Isle
stock pricked out in tracer OF lights.
Beneath this the staring lights Of hun
dreds Of automobiles glared out In a
great semi-circle around the lower end
of the island. Still farther down, In
the shallow waters below the island,
hundreds of brightly decorated canoes
drifted in maze of slow evolutions.
On the dark stretch of the river be-
low that, hundreds OF power boats and
yachts were in motion, their many-col.
ored lights shining doubly by refiec.
ton. Opposite VAUDEVILLE long
line of passenger steamers fiaring with
light from main deck to bridge, swung
In the current.
And Yet More Lights.
And yet there were other lights.

outline and along the shore manufac-
turing plants we're illuminated and
freighters and docks bore beacons OF

In the blackness of the eastern wa

by calcium lights from barges, and
the fire-boat Elliott suddenly turned on
all her powerful engines and spread a
great fan-like cloud OF foaming water
In the air high above her. A dozen
streams from her powerful nozzles
united and wove in a great aerial cas-
cade through which the colored lights
played.
This spectacle lasted for half
hour when the parade was sighted

TO TAKE UP GENERAL
ASSESSMENT QUESTION

During the slack season in the as
SCISSORS Office, before the hard work
of the next genera. assessment be-
gins. 1t Is likely that the board will
take up in a thorough manner the
question Of general assessment of
property in the city. Real estate own
ers in various portions of the city
have complained that the changes
made by the board have not kept up
with the shifting valuations OF the
property. There is no time to give
hearing to such complaints.
Il have generally found that peo-
pie who complained of their assess.
ments being too high were unwilling
ITO sell their property for the assessed
valuation" says Assessor Plass. "In
several instances people have told me
that they would like to sell for the
amount we had them assessed for,
and, when I sent a purchaser, they
backed down.
However. I believe we should hear
such complained now and get assess
ments OF real estate fixed on a defin-
tie and fair basis in every part Of the
city II 1t happens that they are not
30 now"

showed the line of launches drawing
past the islands end. whistles from
every craft along the river greeted
them as they proceeded down to the
Nile buoy off Jos. Campau-ave.. where
wide loop was made so that the
launches returned on the Canadian
side of the passenger feet lying above
the turning stake.
Boats and Cars Congested.
One regrettable feature Of the
nights display was the great difficulty
experienced In handling the crowds.
Every car line was burdened heavily
and most of them were fairly swamp
ed with the rush OF eager people de-
string to get to the docks or to Belle
Isle. Men and women fairly fought In
some places to get into the already
crowded cars.
At the ferry docks there were more
wild scenes. more people wanting to
get on the boats than could be taken.
Belle Isle bridge was choked with
the rush Of humanity islandward, and
thousands braved the evening dews to
sit on the sward where they could
view the spectacle.
In getting home. the rush was even
worse. Not until long past midnight
did the island crowds get passage
homeward. Hundreds were caught In
the midnight shower and drenched.

ond service on Jefferson-ave., but

The rails were warm from the cleo

WATER BOARD To
TURN DOWN CITY
BAlkS AT PLAN TO PROVIDE
A SITE FOR SEWAGE
PUMPING STATION.

The water board will turn the city
down hard on the request of the coun-
ell that a portion OF the water works
pumping station site be given over for
a sewage pumping station. Each wa
ter commissioner expressed different
reason for refusing the councils re-
quest when 1t came up Tuesday after
noon.
conference between the aldermen
and water commissioners will take
place next week. however, and 1t may
be as peaceful as June day.
There was nothing to II but har-
mony In the water boards meeting
Tuesday afternoon. Commissioner
Pound fred a few shots at present
methods, and all the others approved
Of his position each time, which was
almost dieconcerting. One OF Pounds
recommendations was that $4,000 be
taken from the sinking fund to buy
up new water bonds, thus saving in
terest. Another looked to the lower
ing OF the limit on which any one per-
son can bid In bond issues. from S.
600 to $1,000. This is to encourage
Detroit people to buy their own bonds.
Matthew Finn bid $152.070 on an
issue of $150,000 OF bonds and will
get them, although there was slight
hitch on the terms of the bids that
will take some refiguring. Finn Is
about $40 higher on premium than his
next competitor.
Bids on valves were high and the
board first decided to split the con-
tract. but finally rejected all bids. The
salary of George Gibson. chief clerk,
was raised to $1,000.
Wyandotte's request for water con-
nection, and the plea of ST. Clair
Heights for more water were passed
over To allow of future hearing.
