MAYOR VETOES SAUL MEASURE Fire Chief Ordinance Not
 Approved. ITS NOW UP TO c0UNCn Strong Effort Will Be Made to Pass
 It. Mir. Tesgue Declines te Give Ressons for His Disapprevai-The City
 Fathers wnl Meet
 Monday.

Mayor Teague yesterday returned to City Clerk Black the Saul ordinance" with his veto written across it's face.
 It has been generally admitted that the Mayor would veto the measure since 1t was generally known that 1t did not meet with his approval
 The Mayor in returning the measure attached to 1t message 10 the City Council sstting forth his reasons for falling to approve 1t. The message contains about 200 words and has not been given out for publication.
 It is said, by those who have read 1t. to be clear and direct in dealing with the subject. The gist of the message ts that the Mayor doas not believe thai the offiee of ire chief should be mads elective by the Council for the reason that such procedure would be eQuiva. lent to making it political plum. and that 1t would result. in making 1t nec. essary for the chief OF the ire depart. ment to enter into all political fights in order to hold his job.
 That the friends of the ordinanct will attempt to pass 1t over the veto Is believed certain. pr. Saul, the au. thor of the ordinance. was asked what would become of the measure if vetoed by the Mayor. He replied: we will pass 1t any way" Other members Of the Council known to be in sympathy with the measure are equally emphatic in stating their intentions At least two members of the Council have not made public their positions and they are classed as doubtful.
 Rumor has 1t now that there are siz votes in the Council to oppose any ats tempt to pass the ordinance over the Mayors veto. If the runor is correct the ordinance is already dead.
