No Funds for
the inspectors
Chairman of the Finance Commit
tee Says There is No
Chance.

There is only one chance that the money
asked for by Health Commissioner Cornell
without which he declares he cannot keep
his force for the rest of the year can be
raised. The council is allowed to draw
from any extra funds that II may have on
hand for any purpose and apply the money
to a special fund that is in need. This can
be done with an emergency ordinance but
the members of the council seem not at all
anxious to do it and the feeling is general
that the ten inspectors, including DR..
Young, the once dairy inspector, will have
TO so,
Councilman Sheldon, chairman of the
finance committee, says: There Is no
money available and we have no way TO
give DR., Conneil any extra funds Nothing
will be done by the council"
President Brucker says: 1--WE cannot
draw upon an emergency fund in a case of
this sort because there is no urgent neces-
sity for these inspectors. The council will
simply keep its hands off and let the
health commissioner run his own depart
ment."
The matter will come up before the coun-
ell Monday afternoon in the meeting of the
committee of the whole and the question
OF interference will be settled then.

awakening from a sound sumber in the
| berth by an unearthly babble of voices
shreking in different keys and wierd
cadenZas as II some tremendous tumult
was on. My first thought was that the
natives had resented the American in
trusion and had instituted a riot as a hos
tile demonstration. A second plausible eX-
PLANTATION that suggested itself was that
Murdoch had gone out among the Mexi-
cans to organize an insurgent party and
was putting them through the first lessons
under the gag rules of the lower house of
our American congress Cautious explora-
ton through the open car window, how
ever, soon brought better idea of what
was going on A train had pulled into the
station loaded with passengers, and the
host of Mexican onhangers whom we had
seen sleeping the floor were besetting
the new corners trying to sell them fruits,
candies, cakes and other eatables. Each
of the assaulting column had a wooden
tray about two feet square, in the center
OF which stood little oil lantern, with
the wares spread around and was jump
ing UP and down and yelling at the top
of his voice like demon. later learned
that the cries were announcements Of the
prices at which a midnight quick lunch was
to be had. This outbreak on the station
platform was repeated three times during
the night as trains passed through, but in
the morning not sign of the food selling
mob was visible.
We did not stay for the ceremonies over
the monument. The drive TO the Maximil-
Ian chapel and inspection of churches con-
sumed the morning and we were late, as
it was, TO make our train schedule TO
Mexico City, where we were due at $3.50 in
the afternoon. But we did not realize that
we had an American engineer on the loco
motive bearing the euphonious name Of
Rafferty, and that he was recognizing no
speed limit. We not only made up for a
tardy start, but also showed" the Next
cans something by reaching our destination
here in Mexico City fifteen minutes ahead
of the time table.

MEXICO CITY, Sept. Is.
The necessary historical background for
an adequate perspective of the Mexican
centennial which the country is celebrat-
ing Is furnished by Queretaro, which Is
famous not only as the cradle of Mexican
independence, but also as the stage for the
last scene in the life drama of the Inflated
Macmillan, from which the second and
greater republic dates. We were TO have
arrived at Queretaro about 4:30 o'clock in
the afternoon, but the train could not make
up the lost time and it was near 9 O'Clock
in the evening when we pulled into the
station. There we discovered that the gov
