i 1t was also voted to dispense with the
services of John Dwyer, clerk in the de-
partment of Overseer of the Poor Will
lam A. Baldwin, and to GUST three
democratic poor and aims visitors. The
hottest fight of the night preceded the
evote of 10 to 8 to dismiss the matron of
the ~almshouse, Mrs. Frank Doetterl.
Mrs. Doetterl is the widow of the man
appointed to the SUPPLEMENTARY by the
Democrats. 1t was argued by those
working for her dismissal that a man
should be placed in the superintendent
office. and that he should be chosen so
that his wife could be appointed matron.
The place is to be filled by a Mr.. and
Mrs. Corey, of the Ninth Ward, backed
by Alderman Charles w. Baum.
Almshouse Physician Frederick w.
Becker was picked to be succeeded by
a Republican, as was the engineer at
the almshouse.
1t was believed that there would be
! no consideration of the market clerks
office in the absence of Alderman
Whitfield, who. is chairman of the mar
ket committee, but nevertheless the
conference tool up that department, and
after a long argument. which threat
ened several times to terminate the
session, voted 10 to 8 to Gust Thomas
j. Rowe. The plan is to put William
r. swan in that place.
Sweepers t Go.
1t was voted, too, to GUST Assistant
Market Clerk Charles Lemmermeier
and to replace all Democratic sweepers
and Centre Market policemen who are
not veterans of the Civil or Spanish
American wars.
Two Republicans are to replace Will
lam Roebling and Hugh Spillane In the
license department as assistant in
srectors. Chief Inspector James w
| Ward is a veteran. Walter Ressland
Common Council 's~tenographer. was put
on the list as the last of the placehold-
| ers to be condemned TO removal.
AS was agreed q week ago. nothing
was lone in regard to the auditors Of
flee, because of the tangled state of af-
fairs there, Tue to the disappearance OF
City Auditor George Forman. One JOB
that will be vacated Is that of city car
penter. a place of little importance, the
incumbent being paid by resolution
All talk of a~bolishing so-called useless
Offices seems to have been abandoned.
