is Transacted.

Tho expected developments in a RI
mored inquiry into the police depart
ment by the city council did not trans,
ptrc at the council meeting last night
The police committee mad no re-
port and the mayor failed to mention
the subject. II is believed from this
that the mayor does not consider nee
essary n further inquiry into the
charges which were made in the re-
cent report OF the grand jury in the
district court. alleging grave Irregular
tiles In tho conduct OF the police de-
partment and suggesting a investiga-
ton in this department by the council.
The mayor it win be recalled stated at
the time the charges were made pub
lie that the council was heartily in
favor Of q rigid inquiry and it would
be made If considered necessary.
The council session was a brief one.
adjournment being taken at 9 O'Clock.
Routine matters were taken up in
Guiding a number OF left over bills.
The late unpleasantness in the wa
ter supply situation had a faint echo
when on recommendation Of Alderman
Beaven the council voted to deduct
$1l2.G0 from tho bill of the water
company for water used by the city
during the recent shortage. The bill
az rendered was s145.22 and the coun-
ell allowed $32Gy. The deduction was
on tho ground that il cost the city
that much extra expense to get water
during the dry season.
Jesus Romero had a bill of s25 for
the rent of the pest house property.
II was voted to allow some six dollars
OF this bill ana notify Mr.. Romero that
the city wishes to terminate the lease
at the end of this month,
The mayor stated that the property
was of no further use for the purpose
desired.
