The publication OF a financial statement

much discussion last night. at the meet
ing OF City Council, and Il was started
when Joint letter received from City
Treasurer Ross and City Auditor Rice.
was read. These officials stated that It
was impossible TO present such a state
ment, as provided by the city ordnance
because the books in the city treasurer
and auditors office. on account OF the
system OF bookkeeping maintained In the
past, do not contain the desired infor-
nation. The letter was as follows;
Gentlemen: Our attention having been
called to the resolution passed by your
honorable body on January SOth, we beg
to state that, with the Information con-
tanned in the Offices Of the city treasurer
and city auditor, for which we both sub
scribe ourselves respectively. II is utter
ly impossible for us to furnish the infor-
nation required and designated In sec
ton "a Of the city charter. There may
have been in previous years a published
statement, but we fail to see how Council
could publish a summary Of the fiscal con-
Germs OF the said city for the previous
years, when they have had no authority
over the various departments of the city.
We are now about completing, through
the Indiana Mutual Audit Co.. CMr. W. H..

Quoting the work.. a complete accounting
Of the city's affairs. This will be ready
in the course OF a very short time, and
will be handed your honorable body. We
believe, through your finance committee,
with recommendations requested by you.
We do not wish to cause the slightest
reflection upon our predecessors, for their
methods were IN consonance with the
laws then existing, but since the act OF
the last Legislature Il would seem as
though It is possible in the future. 10

section g. provided the recommendations
that viii in all probability be made by the
audit company, are carried out
Very respectfully.

Mr.. MeGovern Insisted on Report.
Mr. McGovern was OF the opinion that
the statement should be forthcoming, with
whatever information could be obtained
despite the stand taken by the city trea-
surer and auditor. He said these two Of
ficials seemed to forget that the resolution
passed by Council last week, calling for
the statement, was mandatory.
Mr.. Kane moved to refer the letter 20

pure Nitroaen. .

& Chemically pure nitrogen, hitherto
believed to be practically unobtainable,
Is now frozen out Of liquid air in the
new process Of Professor H. Erdmann.
When liquid air is evaporated at at
mospheric pressure the nitrogen be-
comes gaseous at 1875 degrees below
zero and the oxygen at 1872 degrees,
and an intermediate temperature
causes nitrogen to distill off In some
what impure form. The nearly pure
gas serves the purposes for which MI
trogen is ordinarily required. The new
process makes 1t possible to obtain the
chemically pure, which IS done by plac-
ing liquid air in good vacuum, when
the rapid vaporization of part Of the
liquid chills the remainder, solidifying
the nitrogen in crystals that can be
separated from the liquid oxygen left.
