Board OverruIes Mayor In Appoint
ment.-Despite Mayor Muellers' oppo-

seconded by Alderman Halligan. To
this Mayor Mueller ruled that the mo-
ton was out of order. A motion was
then made and carried that the may
ors motion be overruled. DR.. Stocks
then moved that the consideration of
the original question be taken up. and
the motion was presented to the board
that DR.. Stocks be appointed city
physician. The board of health is still
the same as was in force last year, de-
spite the nominations made by Mayor
