At q meeting attended by over
200 men and women of the north
hill. held last night at the Ken
wood school, motion to recall
Mayor Pratt because of his remov-
al of Water Commissioner Arvid
Reuterdahl was adopted and re-
call petition approved later. The
recall is based on the mayors at
titude on the water question.
In order to give the mayor a
chance to repent" as one speak
or put it, petition was also
adopted calling upon him to rein
state Reuterdahl and permit the
water extension work to go ahead
rs originally planned.
The meeting was most ami
mated one, as some supporters of
the mayor from Heath's addition
were present and tried to influence
the gathering in favor of the
mayor. Some of these speakers
launched into an abuse of the for.
mer water commissioner, which
provoked such a storm of protest
that the chairman, J. G. Leghorn
had difficulty in restoring order.
When the final motion to recall
Mayor Pratt was made jointly by
Carl Weber, Jr., ESQ., Olympic av
enue, and Frank l.. Spangler, E314
Bridgeport, it went through with
but two or three hayes" coming
from among those that had visited
the meeting from the lower end Of

Wiley in derision, one man charg

that Reuterdahl was responsible
for the water shortage fell flat.
Mrs. R. Christian. from below
the hill, appeared with a typewrit

had been prepared after an inter
view with Mayor Pratt. Mr.. Reu
terdahl questioned the accuracy O
the opening statements, branding
some of them as absolute false

tried to hiss down the woman

have had a chance to transfer to a
white regiment and other officers
have had the same chance, but We
would not do it because we are so
we'll pleased with the services of
the colored men in the army" said
Lieutenant Morrissey, one of the
young officers of the Third battal-
ion, when questioned on the sub
ject last night.
Right there is the secret of the
white officers respect to the negro
soldier despite his belief in the
keeping of color line. 1t is their
service. The negroes themselves
believe in color line just the same
as white people do, and during the
two or three weeks they have al
ready been here they have not at
tempted to cross it. So far they
have given the police no trouble.
Asked what sort of fighters col
ored soldiers made, Lieutenant
Morrissey said: "The colored SOL
diers are good, loyal fighters and
will go wherever their commander
will lead them or order them. They
seem to get along better in the
army than many of the white SOL
diers and give more care and atten-
ton, as a rule, to their equipment
and take great pride in their dress.
They always like to apepar spick
and span.
Our soldiers here are orderly
and so far have kept good repu-
tation and it is the sincere hope of
all the officers In the post, of
course, that they shall continue to
be gentlemen. Spokane will have
little trouble with them"

NEW YORK SPORTS STILL
THINK BURNS WAS TO WIN

New York, Jan. 8.-Did Jack Joha-
son double-cross Tommy Burns In the
light at Sydney? Sporting men in
various cities would like to have this
point cleared up. for they have heard
rumor to the effect that Johnson, az
ter agreeing to lie down went In and
fought on the level. II will be remcm.
bered that ten days before the fight
letter from Johnson to a western
man was made public In which the
negro declared that he intended to
beat Burns no matter what arrange
ments had been made between Burns
and Fitzpatrick" Johnson also wrote
that he cared more for the champion
ship title than money and that Burns
did not have enough coin to make him
throw the fight
1t also will be recalled that for
weeks before the men entered the ring
the general belief wtas that the mill
was queer and for that reason there
was little or no betting on the result
in this country.
According to the rumor that Is in
circulation just now, Burns thought he
had Johnson fixed: that Is TO say, he
got promise from the negro TO lay
down, and in that way, making the
result sure thing. 1t was arranged
to let Johnson have the privilege of
betting $4,000 on Burns. Men who
know Burns methods say that from
the time he double-crosseu Philadel-
phia Jack O'Brien In Los Angeles. he
proceeded to make all his fights sure
things.
The reason Burns avoided Johnson
SO long, rumor says, was to force the
negro TO accept the French Canadians
terms. but the crafty Fitzpatrick. sure
that Johnson could lick Burns on the
level. was ready to enter into any kind
cf "frame-up" emanatlng from
burns so long as Johnson could get a
chance at the white man In the ring.
Il have excellent reason for believ-
ing" said a veteran referee and mate
maker, who is n friend OF Fitzpatrick,
as this topic was discussed today.

game"
