UP CASE
Sullivan's Technical Plea
Overruled Council Can
Investigate.

By unanimous vote last
night, the city council
agreed to hear the charges
pending against Acting
Chief Sullivan and set the
trial for Wednesday night,
October II, at s o'clock.
The legal technicalities by
which Sullivan's friends in
the city administration tried
to shelve the inquiry were
swept aside and the council
resolved to go into a trial
of the case on its merits.
There was no spirit of malice in
the prOc eedings in so far as the act
ing cl- Il of police is concerned; in
act. the expression was made by
numfer of the councilmen that
lney felt competent to give the act
ing chief fair and impartial hear
ing. That is all the proponents OF
the charges are contending for.
COUNCIL FINAL AR6lTER.
Corporation Counsel F. B. Morrill,
did not make a too vigorous defense
of his position that the council had
no right to try Sullivan. The show
ing by Attorney F. c. Robertson as
to the full jurisdiction OF the coun-
Gil in the case was so complete that
there was no getting away from 1t.
In the end Morrill, and Robertson
agreed on the point that clinched
the determination of the council to
go ahead with the hearing, and that
was that the council is the final ar
bitter in case of this kind and from
Its decision there Is no appeal.
The city council has always
shown F. b. Morrill,, the present cor
poration counsel, the utmost re-
spect. but the council felt that in
the present case Mr.. Morrill, was In
a very delicate position. They re-
allied that naturally he should feel
loyal to his chief. Mayor Pratt, who
was using every means within his
power to save Sullivan. Mr.. Nor

 MT. G1avis declared that in one of these interviews in October, 1908, MT. Bahinger told him that he was having a hard time trying to collect campaign contributions and that two men in volved in the Cunningham claims who had been liberal contributors in the past declined to contribute because they were angry at not being granted patents for the Alaska coal lands. Representative James of Kentucky. one of the democratic members of the com mittee, bounced upon this testimony and cross examined the witness about it at some length
 Glavis said that Mir. Ballinger asked him to hold up on the Alaska cases until after election. He agreed to do this because he had his hands full with another case.
